Disgusting meal, will never return to this dingy, empty restaurant. Being the parking lot full of trucks and truckers with an empty restaurant says it all. They would have a gold mine if they improved lighting, service but mostly food. Other reviews all you do is defend yourself and the food instead of listening to the information and improve. Food for thought.

The chinese food was cold and the sauces were congealed. The ginger beef was thin overcooked meat. Was told they never had a complaint before so they would not remove it from my bill although I only had three bites. There was also a hair, but they say the cooks don't have grey hair so it's not theirs. NEVER will I eat here again.You can say what you want. The food was terrible. Who serves congealed sauces. The food was cold and to be told you have to pay regardless because no one complained before (check the reviews). I should not have e been charged at all. Poor custimer service skills to blame the customer for poor quality isn't right. You say your sorry, but that isn't believable at all. Save your money and go across the street to Dennys.

I always look at reviews before eating somewhere and these reviews aren’t good and even going to check out the restaurant at 12:00pm you think there would be someone there eat empty, restaurant wasn’t inviting at all so out I walked and clearly some of the reviews aren’t wrong!!!!

Worst service ever food was grossww had hot hamburger loaded with onions allergy no mention of onions toast never came with oatmealSpring roll never cameSweet sour sauce looked like bbq sauceWaitress was not useful very flightyAnd unattetentiveWont be back
When most truck stops offer chain restaurants or fast food options for meals, we enjoy dining at J's Work and Grill. On this trip we ate lunch twice. Our first meal we went with the double burger with cheese, ham, mushrooms and a thousand island dressing. Excellent burger. For the price, I think it was a good value. Just sad that the Vietnamese food options aren't available on the weekend. But that just means that we'll have to be back during the week. Keep up the great work.

Since the owners have a hard time understanding their customer complaints while constantly requesting clarification and following up with condescending remarks as well as insults, I will be perfectly clear with my review.This restaurant is Gordon Ramsay Kitchen Nightmare level bad!This is the worst review I have ever left in over 6 years.Parking was confusing and the entrance to the restaurant was not clearly marked with too many signs and no clarity for the actual restaurant.Our server, the Co-owner (Ken?) said that the portions were 'trucker-sized' and that was utterly false.The Shrimp Chop Suey was actually Shrimp and Broccoli which arrived with - let me be absolutely clear - rotten broccoli!It was not wilted, yellow or some other excuse - it was ROTTEN!One could actually smell how bad it was on the plate.The shrimp was cooked properly, which is poor consolation on the way to Emerg with potential food poisoning or even death.The meal was replaced at no charge for the Classic Breakfast which was prepared well except, for the plate-sized pancake.All that could be tasted was a mouthful of oil.The flapjack crumpled and separated like a pita bread.It broke apart in the middle as it was improperly cooked (and being in the food service industry for over a 2 decades), it appeared to be prepared on a grill that was not up to temp.My so-called Special Fried Rice was barely lukewarm and Ken agreed after I asked him to feel the plate and have a taste.He returned with a story about putting in back on the wok, however, the same spoonful I had taken my first bite before sending it back was in the exact same spot along with the pepper I had used.Being lied to is insulting as this dish was merely put into the microwave and unprofessionally reheated.The rice tasted like it was made with instant rice totally broken and crumbly.The chicken, beef and pork were all dried out and I would suggest it was sitting in a giant pot or chafing dish waiting to be scooped out for the next customer as nothing was fresh at all.Hardly the quality of a dish charging $18.85!Ken asked if everything was okay and I accepted the rice as they were closing soon and I was too hungry to go elsewhere or argue anymore.No amount of soy sauce revive this ultrabland dish resulting in 3 out of 3 food dish failures.We had to move to another booth to actually see as a light above our table was burned out.The atmosphere was dark and dingy rather than the bright and exciting atmosphere I had come to expect from 5-10 years ago when we lived in Dover and would come at least once a week as a family. We would constantly be inviting friends and extended family to dine here. Now I won't even bother stopping as rotten, uncooked, ill-prepared food is the norm.Though Ken was cheerful, he was embarrassingly slow to look after us with only 2 other tables arriving after us.I used to defend the restaurant when people called it 'The Road Kill', unfortunately, J's Wok N Grill is an embodiment of this name. This is extremely disappointing and I would not be surprised at all if the health inspector visited them shortly.To clarify, slow service, dingly dark atmosphere, ill-prepared food - both uncooked and rotten - overpriced food and inadequate portions are all the reasons that I will not be returning to J's Wok N Grill inside the Road King Truck Stop nor recommending it to anyone. I made it clear upon paying the bill that I would not be leaving a tip.The best thing that could happen to the Wok N Grill would be to be shut down by the health department, all the kitchen staff fired and retrained. Once they pass the provincial safety standards certifications, hire professional qualified staff and servers, then maybe they could reopen with the help of a restaurant designer.I would highly recommend not going to J's Wok N Grill inside the Road King Truck Stop at all costs.Good luck, you are going to need it!

Nothing really special about the atmosphere... the food was kind of greasy. But the biggest thing is the value you get for your money. $2.95 for a dry flimsy piece of garlic toast is ridiculous. I understand an establishment needing to make a profit. But $2.95 for a piece of bread with premade garlic butter ... i would even understand $2.95 if the garlic spread was home made, but it's from a container. And the bread, very dry and very thin. For $2.95, it should be three slices. To add insult to injury, I had to rush to the washroom straight after eating.I will not be returning or recommending to anyone
