" After hearing so much about Golden Wok, I decided to give it a try with my family last Saturday. We ordered a variety of dishes, including sweet and sour chicken, lo mein, and some egg rolls. I have to say, everything was just okay. The flavors didn't pop, and I was somewhat disappointed because I had high hopes. It felt like typical American-Chinese food rather than the authentic dishes I was looking for. Service was friendly, but the food quality needs improvement. I might consider trying again but won’t be in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Wok has been my go-to for years! While I know it's not the fanciest spot in town, their chicken wings are phenomenal, and the teriyaki options are fantastic too. It feels like home when I order from there. The portions are generous and you get value for your money. It's unfortunate there's no dine-in option anymore, but that doesn't bother me much because the food is always hot and ready for takeout. I highly recommend trying their wings if you haven’t yet!

" Had the chance to visit Golden Wok recently, and overall I found it to be a pleasant experience. The hot and sour soup was definitely a highlight, and the service was friendly, which put me at ease. However, the chicken fried rice was not great. It lacked flavor and really could use a revamp. It’s a decent place for quick meals, but they need to work on a few more items to make it a well-rounded choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family has always enjoyed the takeout from Golden Wok! Their chicken dishes are always tasty, and my children love their wings. However, I hope they can expand their menu to include more authentic options in the future. With a bit of improvement, this could be an amazing local spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've had better experiences in the past, but the last time I ordered from Golden Wok was rather disappointing. My chicken was dry, and the flavors just lacked that punch I was looking for. It's become too hit-or-miss for me, which is frustrating. On the plus side, the donuts were still delicious, but that alone doesn’t justify another visit for main dishes. I might consider taking a break for a while. " (*Curated Review*)

" I come from a Chinese family, so I'm picky about my Chinese food. Golden Wok is fine when it comes to classic American-Chinese dishes, but I wouldn’t call it authentic. The flavors are often watered down for the local palate, but they’ve nailed a few recipes. The hot and sour soup is definitely worth a try! I just wish there were more authentic dishes on the menu. Otherwise, it’s a decent place to grab some food if you're close by. " (*Curated Review*)

" Golden Wok has become a staple for quick takeout in Chester for my family. The staff is always friendly and accommodating, and they seem to remember our usual orders. However, over the past few visits, I've noticed an inconsistency in quality. While the egg rolls and wings are still fantastic, some of the main dishes can be hit or miss. It’s still convenient and a solid choice for a speedy dinner, but I hope they can tighten up their food prep. " (*Curated Review*)
