China Wok, Palm Desert CA

Ordered five entrees. Ordered three vegetarian entrees. Of which I feel they gave me that fake meat on the entrees that were not supposed to be vegetarian. In addition, one of the vegetarian plates, I ordered with more mushrooms, and said I would pay the difference, I was given three pieces of mushrooms!
Quality of food diminished. The meat, in the Mongolian beef plate, looked fake. $82 meal disappointment.

I really enjoy the cleanliness, the cordial treatment, the great service and the fantastic food that is well prepared 100% of the time- my server Kristina goes above and beyond at all times to insure the glasses are full throughout your stay even when the restaurant is packed with customers and only a few servers- i appreciate her hard work and dedication to great customer service- For those reasons I will continue my patronage at the CHINA WOK.

Another favorite location. Years and years of amazing food and service for me and my family! We love coming here with my mother in law. It is a family favorite for sure. Next time I will get more food pictures. We love our vegetable soup, chicken wings, lo mein (veggie), the green beans are delish! You cannot go wrong with anything here. Also have beer and wine available. I love the raspberry tea

Had a great selection of vegetarian options. The service was fantastic and the food delicious. Would 100% recommend as a vegetarian friendly option in an area with an otherwise abysmal selection.

The only problem is the fact they don't give you the Mu Shu sauce even when you ask for it. The place is a zoo on any given night.

What a wonderful delight to have found this gem of a restaurant. Cloudy rainy day stopped in for soup "Won Ton Wor" also ordered "Pot Stickers" both were fabulous, especially with their specialty dragon sauce which we added in the soup and enhanced the taste Bud's to this wonderful meal! We will definitely be back to try more from their nice menu. The staff was friendly and quick to check on our needs. The restaurant is clean and a pleasant atmosphere. Give it a try you'll be happy you did!

If you’ve never been here before save yourself some money and go elsewhere! I’ve been coming to this restaurant for 3+ years and within the past year it has become ridiculous. Last night will be the last time we ever get takeout here. First of all the portions are HORRIBLE! I understand times are tough but this isn’t that, this is a straight rip off. Their containers have drastically decreased in size. There’s virtually no difference between a half or a full size other than you getting a couple extra onions in the full size, so save yourself the 4 bucks and order half orders. Speaking of onions that’s all you are really buying, along with decreasing their portion sizes they’ve also gotten rid of their meats it seems, because you won’t find very much chicken or beef in any of the entries but you will get tons of onions. As of last night they informed me they had increased their prices! So instead of 11 dollars for a half you will now be charged 13. But (get ready for more sketchiness) that’s only in person because if you go online their price increase isn’t reflected on there so if you really MUST order here go online first and check! In essence I paid 27.00 dollars for a half order of onions and some very soggy VERY SOGGY potstickers. The food taste is at best mediocre, everything seems to be drenched in cheap oil lately. I’m sure they’ve decreased the quality of the ingredients they are using in order to price cut. Keep in mind cheap oil causes inflammation. Other than the convenience of the location (if you live near by like we do) there is nothing left here that will get me to comeback, it’s a shame because it used to be a decent place. I’m sure you can find other places near by that aren’t trying to blatantly rip you off. Chef noodle is right down the street, or go to panda atleast you’ll be full.

Good food but kinda pricey for the portion sizes. Great friendly service. Ordered delivery a couple times and both times seems like they dumped a bunch of extra onions in my orders and less meat than in person. Ordered a chicken dish for delivery a while back and it was about 90% onions.

This is one of my favorite place for oriental food
The staff is so attentive and always will a smile

This restaurant has lots of tasty food options. The menu is expansive and the foods cone in big portions that are 100% worth their price. Our server was very respectful and made sure that we enjoyed our time and the food during our stay. This restaurant is great for families, especially with their tasty dishes! Will return!

If you are reading this and you've never been here, I would recommend that you go up the street to another place.

Portions are horrible. I ordered kung pao chicken. I could count on one hand how many little bits of chicken was in a half order. It was mostly full of vegetables. I am quite sure that they used a leftover dish because I ordered and before I even sat back down, it was ready. I don't know where they got it from though because it wasn't in the to go area where the others were. Not only was the chicken ratio very bad but the overall size of a half order ($12) was very small. The food cost for this couldn't have been more than 2 dollars. Absolutely a rip off.

I have zero desire to return and I would recommend if you are looking for a place that you find another place. It's also not authentic. None of the cooks were Chinese. I don't know about you but that's a very bad sign to me.

I wish I remember to take a picture of my food. This place serves up the most fresh and tasty Chinese food, they cook to order so it's always fresh and tasty. This place is the only place I go to now here in the desert.

Perfect comfort food and really tasty. Unfortunately, the large portions weren’t big as expected. Maybe that’s bc I ordered from Door Dash… delivery is a gamble ‍️

Yummy food here, great servers, and clean inside dining. Our server was Kristina and she was working very hard to make sure we had our food fresh off the grill. We will return. This is a child and family friendly restaurant.

I guess the boss was not there or an aggressive manager needed full time. I usually eat indoors at a table. It starts like this. Before we sat down he dropped the menus on the table. Next before we can set down he asked what will you like to drink. No red and yellow sauce with little sticks. No tea. The fountain machine needs service (clean the system) my sierra mist was very old tasting. Our Wor WonTon soup was not for 3-5 people size more like 2-3 people. Only 2 shrimp, no beef, 2 chicken, 1 pork, 3 cauliflower, no water chestnut, no carrot, too long shredded cabbage and came cold. Garden salad drowning in liquid too tangy. Mongolian beef 100% white onions only like 2 pieces green long onion. The meat only 6 pieces and so on just missing everything. Meat was burned and half fresh. Cutting corners missing what is a normal china food. Service at the bear minimal, not in any mood. Staff joking and laughing. Needs owner to be there and needs aggressive manager. Help!

We are vacationing in the area and wanted good Chinese food. We found the place! The service was great, fast and friendly. The owner was very kind. The food was prepared how we ordered it. Next time I am in town. I will be back.

Excellent service by Esperanza! The chicken wings appetizers and fried shrimp are the bomb!
This place has two winning cards in it's hands:
#1 Excellent service
#2 Outstanding Chinese Cuisine
Janelle and Emilio O.were so helpful in helping me negotiate the menu. Ordered the crispy chicken wings and the Firecrackers Pork! The Bomb! Yummy!
