Wok in Cafe. That's what I did! I walked in the restaurant, looking for a good bowl of Wonton Soup. I stood there waiting for a few minutes until a woman sitting in the back booth noticed me . After the soup was delivered, I thought they had gotten my order wrong. It look disgusting, just water with a few stringy vegetables floating in the week looking broth. 8 little macaroni looking wontons. I had to count them, they were lost at sea in the large bowl of water. It was possibly the worst Wonton Soup Ever! I even had to Google what I thought I was ordering. I have had many bowls of Wonton all over the world. I wok'd out of the restaurant, never to return. If you can't make soup correctly, I question the quality of the rest of the menu. Bummer, because I love Chinese food!

Maybe it was a bad day for the cook. Food presentation was severely lacking. Food color was off. No veggies in fried noodles dish. Chicken in noodles looked like it was cut with a meat cleaver small chunks , large chunks. No obvious care on how it looks. Taste was okay if you got pass the Grey color of noodles. Owners seem nice but little was said. No white rice was available only fried rice with no egg or vegetables was presented. Plates were random and didn't match. It was an off experience. I think they can make some small changes and make the experience so much better. First time I've been there not sure if I'll give a second.

Every time I come here I remember why it's my favorite restaurant in Redlands. The lemon chicken and lo mein are incredible and the drinks are very well made and sweet.

I haven't found a single thing on the menu. I didn't absolutely love.

My family and I have been coming to this restaurant for years and never disappoints. The chef and his staff are great and always listen to our orders. Highly recommend!
Our go-to are the vegetable egg rolls, tofu with green beans and plain lo-main

While passing through Redlands, my wife and I decided to stop by Wok-In Café since she had tried it before and was open to coming back.

When we arrived, the restaurant was empty, so we were able to sit anywhere. We ordered Kung Pao Chicken and Beef, and the food did take some time to come out—which usually signals that it’s made fresh, and that part was appreciated.

Unfortunately, the overall experience was mixed due to the atmosphere. The kids sitting at the table next to us appeared to be the owner’s children, and they were very loud and running around the dining area. There didn’t seem to be much effort to keep things under control, and it made the environment feel unprofessional. At times, it honestly felt more like being at Chuck E. Cheese than a sit-down restaurant, which took away from enjoying the meal.

The service itself was okay, nothing terrible, but the lack of attention to the disruptive noise was disappointing.

👉 Final Thoughts:
The food was decent and seemed freshly prepared, but the noisy environment—especially with the owner’s kids running around—really impacted our visit. Because of that, I’m not sure we would come back again.

This Chinese family run restaurant seems like just a little hole in the wall restaurant from outside but it’s quaint n’ cozy inside. The food is excellent and reasonably priced. I love the iced flavored teas and the Chop Suey is the best I’ve ever had, made with fresh vegies and soft succulent shrimp. YuM !

Food is fresh and made to order. Spicy orange chicken is crispy, wonton soup was amazing, and everything I order it never disappoints.
