We loved everything we got! They were so kind and gave me a side of kimchi to try for free and it was so delicious. Crunchy, a tiny bit spicy and tangy. The sweet and sour chicken and rice was phenomenal. Egg drop soup even impressed my husband who usually hates it. Crab rangoon and egg rolls were so good fresh. My husband got cashew chicken and said it was great too. Very kind staff and great food. We will be back!

Best Chinese food in springfield hands down! But the high prices are getting out of hand as with most Chinese restaurants in Springfield.
Walked in and sat a a table. Wife ordered our food. I was kicked out saying table was for people who ordered. I explained we are or did order. Cancelled my order and left. Don’t serve people if there isnt a place to sit. Do carry out only.

I haven’t been to this location since it was branded under “China Wok”. I will fondly remember it for being the place that introduced me to General Tso’s chicken. Back when the chicken pieces were almost comedically large and almost too much. Since then, I figured I’d try out the rebranded location.
The service was quick, the atmosphere was nice. The food was meh. Let’s divulge.
I am a Springfield boy, so of course I had to try to cashew chicken. You can get a great gauge on a Springfield Chinese restaurant based on their cashew. And usually, if the cashew sauce is good, everything else tends to follow suit. But this was not particularly the case unfortunately.
I feared the worst when I saw the chicken and the sauce had that pale complexion. The flavor was off. No hint of oyster, very thin and a taste of chicken stock. Usually when I see this color of cashew sauce it is a dead giveaway. Versus Canton Inn or Leongs thicker, darker and more complex flavor profile.
The chicken was crispy, but also a bit chewy and dry. I also got orange chicken (which was decent!) as well as the sweet and sour, which, let’s be honest it’s VERY hard to mess sweet and sour up. I’m not particularly a fan of it, but it tastes the same everywhere.
The crab rangoon was great. Salty, versus the sweet kind that many places get, which is kind of ironic being that they give you sweet sauce to dip it in. STOP USING SWEET CREAM CHEESE IN CRAB RANGOON. So thank you, Wok, for not being in that club.
The fried rice was good. Better than many of the flavorless and bland varieties found around town. Though it wasn’t perfect, it was still miles above most of the competition.
Overall, the experience was okay. Not bad, not amazing. But could be so much more.
Pretty busy place so call ahead. I didn't care for their food, but my sister does. The rice is too sweet for me.

The food was hot and fresh and the staff were friendly. The restaurant was clean and had beautiful plants and pictures. They even had games on the tables that you could play if you wanted to.
My daughter really liked the meat. She got wonton soup and she really liked it too.
The vegetables were undercooked. In my opinion the food wasn't bad it was really sweet too much sugar.
I'd rather taste ginger and garlic. My daughter in on the other hand loves the sugar rolled in. I would go back here and just ask them not to add the corn syrup.

The Wok on Scenic has been a staple in our house for over a decade. My wife loves their hot and sour soup, along with their chicken fried rice (spicy version). I love their combo fried rice and combo lo mein. Their sweet and sour chicken and wonton soup are also excellent! I'm sure the rest of the menu is as well, but those are the items my family always chooses!

Ordered online several times and have had intermittent incorrect order issues. Tonight we ordered $80 worth of food (4 meals) and extra broccoli and extra spicy. The order was normal general chicken. When I called the person on the phone argued it wasn’t their fault due to a 3rd party app. Showed them the receipt from the order I hat was sent through their website with the word “toast” on it (how they authenticated it) and after more argument they refunded the $1.50 for the xtra broccoli. The quality is not worth these issues. Will start ordering elsewhere from now on.
