Bryan and I were craving chinese food and decided to visit Wok Box. We've heard of it before, but never ventured to it. Oh my! the prices looked very steep for a fast-food like place. And we were a little turned off by the fact the the inside was pretty big and spacey with plenty of seating and there was just a pair of couples. We thought we'd at least try SOMETHING instead of just leaving empty handed. We ordered one thing and figured it'd be large enough to share. From the Stirfry menu, we chose a classic Teriyaki chicken.
Teriyaki Chicken Stirfry: classic caramelized sweet and tangy teriyaki sauce with fresh veggies and udon noodles
We took it to-go and it cost $10.49 +tax for their "regular" size. We waited about 3 minutes for the order, and when it was handed to us, we were both taken by surprise that it was one chinese "wokbox":
We were both like "$12 for this?!?!" When we opened it up at home, we realized that it actually is a good portion/serving of noodles and veggies.We weren't full from one box together, so it served as more of a snack. It was quite delicious though. The sauce had drained to the bottom of the box, but that could've been resolved by pouring onto a serving plate, but we chose to eat straight from the box. I love the idea of eating out of chinese food boxes. Adorable! There was good assortment of veggies and were cooked perfectly. The chicken meat was moist. Loved the udon noodles also.
In the end, we have mixed feelings about this place. We may or may not come back. But if you want or love the thought of experiencing eating your favourite chinese foods from boxes and chopsticks, then I'd say it'd be worth it to come here :)
Their menu also consists of other rice and noodle boxes, naan-wiches, small bites like egg rolls, samosas and pot stickers, wonton & pho soups.
Overall, we give WokBox a rating of 7 out of 10.
