I had a long day that finished with a trip to the laundry mat. I was quite hungry so I decided to give Work and Roll a try. I'm glad I did! This was the best Sesame Chicken I have had in years! And having walked in and placed my order, it was cool to watch my meal being cooked even....no wonder it tastes fresh because it is! I highly recommend this place!

I've ordered the spicy chicken lo mein 3 times now and it's honestly one of the best I've had. Food is ready quickly and is always hot. Definitely give this place a try!

As far as american chinese food goes I like it, Taste wise definitely makes top 3 of all time for me. Prices overall 10-20% below average. I see a lot of reviews complain about "authentic" and I don't think....most americans would eat authentic chinese food. If you wanted, you can always ask for whatever authentic dish you want and they probably can make it.

We get carry out as it is a very small place. Family owned with a great staff Delicious food with comparable prices.I highly recommend Wok and Roll.
Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian dishes on menu and are very accommodating if you wanted a menu item prepared w/out meat . I am sure they would make it for you
Love this place. I do laundry next door and whenever I’m hungry doing that laundry and need to burn some time I come next door and am never disappointed. Last time I had the dragon & Phoenix but today it’s just shrimp fried rice. It’s delicious and there’s a bunch of shrimp in here.
One of my favorite chinese places in town:-) My boyfriend and I have gone here multiple times and never had a problem with the food or service. It’s really reasonable and I feel like there are some people making reviews with really high standards when it’s just a lil chinese food shop!
I was very disappointed in the quality of food I received. Everything was chewy and the meats used were less than desirable. Was maybe worth 1/3 of what I paid.

If I could give 0 stars I would. When you walk in you can smell mold. There is grease and dust build up to 4 inches from the wall on floor and all horizontal surfaces. Husband and I ordered the general tso chicken it was bland and no flavor. When my husband finished his meal we noticed a gnat in his left over sauce. He went back to show them that they has a bug issue only to be treated as if he was trying to scam them. He was not asking for anything returned. We will never return.

It would be easy to dismiss this GEM of a locally-owned restaurant as "typical strip-mall fast-food Chinese," when driving by. You'd be wrong. The dishes are FANTASTICALLY flavorful, delicious, and prepared fresh. My wife and I used to be regular customers years ago, prior to pandemic. But we moved away for several years, and only recently decided to try it again. We didn't even know if it was the same owners (it was/is). And we were DEEPLY impressed by the quality of the dishes. We got the Mapo Tofu and the Kung Pao Chicken, and both were packed with complex flavors and delicious. The Mapo, in particular, is HIGHLY recommended, as the flavor profile is unique (compared to other restaurants' rendering of Mapo); but know this: if you're not a garlic lover, stay away, but if you ARE, you'll be AMAZED. Portion sizes were generous, too (we're going to be able to get three dinners out of this one order). I can't comment on the negative reviews below, but what I CAN say is OUR experience was A++, and that we're going to resume going here regularly whenever we're in town. PS My "atmosphere" rating of "3" simply reflects the fact that it's a standard fast-food interior, rather than a "sit-down fine dining" vibe (ala Charlie Kang's, our other go-to Asian in town).

Yesterday I had the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE over the phone. I still can’t believe what I experienced. Whoever that answered the phone (who is a woman) at 3:21pm on June 10th, was unbelievably rude to me. We were in a hurry with a group of six people but we want to have some authentic Chinese food and I have been here before a few times, so I called about half an hour earlier before we arrive asking if they can start to cook for us so we can dine in right after we get there. Before I called I check both Yelp, Google and their website, hoping to find their Chinese menu to know what to order but failed. So I asked the woman if she can give us some recommendations. And she responded very impatiently, with an attitude in Chinese “how come you don’t know what to order before calling?!” I was completely shocked by the attitude she gave me. I even tried to check the menu before I call! And even if I found the Chinese menu, asking for recommendations should be the most common question to ask. Then, after trying to recall from my memory of three dishes, I asked her again for what greens/veggies they had for the day. She replied “pea sprout ”. And when I asked if there’s any other choices, she sounded like she wants to hang up the next second. All the time I felt like treated like someone who was trying to beg for food and their service. And probably she is venting on me for something else from the very beginning. So I did not order anything, and the whole group had to change our plan because of her. And I hate this but I have to permanently cross this restaurant off my to go list. What I want to say is, whoever this woman is, you should get fired. Get yourself together start by re-learning how to treat and interact with other people, EVEN ON THE DAYS WHEN YOU ARE UPSET (if you were). Because OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE,NOT TO MENTION THEY ARE YOUR CUSTOMER DON’T DESERVE THIS.
