Kirkland

Asian Grill Dumplings Soups Vegetarian

Review Summary

Wok Cafe Kirkland is described as standard West Island Chinese fare with fairly large portions for the price, not fine dining, and quality that can vary week to week; most reviewers advise ordering a la carte and skipping family meal options. The interior can feel uncomfortably cold in winter, and staff are seen wearing heavy pullovers and puffy vests. Experiences range from very nice staff and tasty dishes to occasional issues such as General Tao that is dry or overcooked, with some rude moments noted at the counter. The restaurant has been around for a while and is missed by some for past items like salt and pepper pork ribs. Overall, service is often friendly and the food is described as good and affordable, with some dishes surpassing expectations and leftovers commonly taken home.View restaurant profile
