" My experience at Lobster Wok left me so impressed with their seafood dishes. I ordered the steamed fish which was cooked to perfection. The flavors were authentic and delightful. Although I had to wait longer for my order, the freshness of the fish made it worth it. Next time, I will definitely try their dumplings too, which I've heard great things about! " (*Curated Review*)

" The first time I visited Lobster Wok, I was really impressed with the food! The flavors transported me back to my favorite spots in Chinatown. The orange chicken had the right amount of sweetness, and everything was freshly prepared. However, my second visit was disappointing as the service was slower than expected, but I’m still eager to give it another try. Overall, it’s a good spot for anyone who loves authentic Chinese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Going to Lobster Wok feels like visiting a friend's house. The staff is welcoming, and they seem to enjoy what they do. The food always has that homemade touch. I love their honey garlic chicken – it’s the best! If you’re looking for yummy authentic Chinese food, this is the place to be! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Lobster Wok after hearing so many good things about it. I ordered a combination platter, which was delicious, but I was shocked when I saw how little rice came with my meal. For the price I paid, I expected more. The ambiance is nothing special but it's cozy enough. The service was decent but nothing extraordinary. I might give it another shot but I hope the portion sizes improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've always been on the hunt for authentic Chinese food and I think I've finally found it here! The challenge is that the wait times can be frustratingly slow. The food itself, however, was worth the wait, especially their egg rolls which are possibly the best in town. Great little spot extra care for prep and flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Always satisfied with my takeout from Lobster Wok. The chicken wings are a favorite in my household. While the wait time can be significant, the quality of the wings keeps us returning. I've never been disappointed with the taste; they're always juicy and flavorful. Great value overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m usually very picky about my Chinese food, but Lobster Wok has won me over. Their kung pao shrimp was cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere of the shop is very casual but cozy, making it a great place to grab lunch or dinner. Don't let the small size fool you; the flavors pack a punch! " (*Curated Review*)
