Overall, reviews of Wok en Folie show a generally positive impression with fresh flavors, generous portions, and friendly service, though a few visits note inconsistencies such as greasy meat or dishes that arrive small or overpriced. Many praise the General Tao chicken for big chunks of meat with light batter, the pepper chicken, and the hot and sour soup, and they value the lunch specials that come with a soup and a spring roll. The lo mein and other Cantonese noodles are described as tasty, and multiple diners mention fast, courteous service and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. Several reviewers commend the new ownership for improvements and the overall good value, while others recount experiences with dumplings that were not pan fried but microwaved and with sweet and sour chicken that was mushy. Some feedback highlights abundant portions and reliable flavors, whereas a few orders miss the mark, making the experience feel variable. Taken together, Wok en Folie is regarded as a solid option for Chinese takeout and casual dining, with frequent mentions of generosity, reasonable prices, and a neighborhood friendly vibe.
Ordered delivery from here, food is fresh, clean & not oily, tastes refreshing. Salt&Pepper shrimp is great, crispy & big tiger shrimp. I would 100% recommend.
First time visitor to this restaurant. Owner took it over for a year. We were warmly seated at our table & our waitress was kind & efficient. I had the hot & sour soup which came with my combo meal & which was delicious. Nice pieces of tofu along with the traditional vegetables. Soup was hot in temperature & perfectly spicy for me. I had the combo plate of chicken with black bean sauce & passed on the rice so they were kind enough to substitute it for a veggie medley which I appreciated. The vegetables were delicious & the chicken was good but found the plate was sweeter than a traditional black bean chicken would be. I think they need to use more black bean sauce. I tried the general Tao & it was very good. Nice pieces of white meat which you rarely see in a Chinese restaurant. Not sure why they were so quiet on a Friday night but I think they need to promote their place more to get people in since the food & service are good. Recommended.

Good Day, I placed an online order for the'lemon chicken' combo & it was ready when I got there. I got home &... the soup & spring roll were fine. The rice was the main dish it seems. The'chicken' was greasy & had a weird look & was very hard. It seemed to consist of unidentifiable strips of I'm not sure what that tasted very bad on top of the greasiness. I threw out my $15 main dish & will not chance going back. I was thinking on the way there of hoping to have found a good local restaurant. No such luck.
The new owners have done a great job with this restaurant! They are very friendly, & the food is better than before. Usually great general tao (but sometimes dry) beef & brocoli, spring rolls... we usually arent disappointed by anything in our order.
This is our experience as a 1st time patrons reading reviews which sounded great. Your experience can be far better than ours, on our order we found the portions small & expensive. General Tao much too fried & was tuff, with a hint of sauce - so disappointed as we had to fight chewing this dish. The Pepper chicken was good & chicken was tender but a bit salty after a few bites. The mixed vegetables in sauce was nice & tasty & was the best of what we received. I hope your order comes out better.

The food is amazing. I ordered a combo dinner & a mistake was made & they not only sent their delivery person to me with the correction but the complete replacement order the food is delicious their service is amazing
Tried their lunch combo special a few days ago, very good value for the money! We ordered the chicken Lo mein & the General tao chicken which came with a soup ( hot & sour or wonton), spring roll & steamed rice. The general tao chicken was a stand out - unlike other restaurants where the batter is so thick & chicken meat barely there- here it's delicious big chunks of meat that's lightly battered & crispy. The hot & sour soup was good, spring roll was what you typically get from Chinese restos. Quick & friendly service, & the price can't be beat - less than $10 for the Lo Mein & $13 for the General Tao, Mondays-Fridays. Will be back for sure!
I absolutely love this place. The quality & freshness of the food, huge portions, a lot of specials if you're eating alone. The serving staff & the cooks are the nicest people you could ever meet.
If you love fresh Chinese food you will not be disappointed!
Gone there 3 times now. I find the food is marginal at best first time I went, I ordered the pan fried dumplings as well as a main dish. I didn't realize it at the time, but I watched him microwave something & only later realized it was the dumplings so not really pan fried but frozen & reheated second time I went I tried the sweet-&-sour chicken founded mushy & not very appealing & then last night for the third time I ordered the dumplings again & specifically asked them if they will pan fry them & not microwave them unfortunately, it was a bust. I think the location is cursed

On a essayé la table d'hôte & c'est bon ! le poulet aux haricots noirs rehaussent un bon goût avec les poivrons ! Le boeuf à l'orange a gardé sa croustillance jusuq'a la fin ! On a changé du riz frit pour du riz blanc mais un peu déçu car l'odeur poêlé n'y est pas, le riz frit est gardé au chaud dans la marmite, manque un peu de saveurs ! Le service est bon, la serveuse est seule & on la comprend ! L'ambiance est espacée mais pas assez de décors ! Bref pour les prix donnés & les goûts des plats ca vaut de la peine dy goûter !
Expérience de commande en ligne facile & bonne nourriture chinoise avec des plats bien remplis. La personne qui nous a servi était très gentille aussi. J'y retournerai!
