East Wok

This restaurant is take out only. They have closed their dining room off. Even if you order on the phone you wait 10-20 minutes sitting in a tiny, hot entryway or standing outside. My kung pao chicken was full of carrots and onions but no celery or water chestnuts and few pieces of chicken. My parent’s beef and broccoli was 95% broccoli. Where’s the meat? We had asked for spicy but it was bland. My son’s egg drop soup tasted like thick water. There were chunks of weird gelatinous goo in my hot and sour soup. We will not come back.

The lo mein was very heavy on the soy sauce. We ordered sesame chicken and general tsos chicken they were inedible. The chicken dishes had a tartness that left a tingly feeling in the mouth. The rice and sweet and sour chicken were edible.

Genuine spot ran by the sweetest Chinese man. He serviced me right away despite closing time and got me freshly made food (general tso’s chicken).

Make sure you call and order ahead, otherwise it can be a little bit of a wait. I ordered the general tsos dinner special/combo and it was ready within 15-20 min. Came with the general tsos, side of fried rice, and an egg roll for $9 and some change! Not bad. The food was ok, I don’t have high standards for Chinese food, the fried rice could use a tad bit of seasoning/salt though. But overall good! Make sure you ask for silverware if you need it (was not in my to go bag) Also mind boggling to see you can’t find their menu anywhere. So here’s some photos of their menu lol

Usually Chinese food is consistently fine no matter where you go. This place was a little bit of a disappointment. We ordered the Beef Fried Rice and the Chicken Chop Suey. The flavors, sauces, rice, and vegetables were all good. The meats, however, were lacking and low quality. Most of the chicken in the Chop Suey was gristle and cartilage, and we hardly found any beef in the Fried Rice. I think if you order a vegetarian dish here you should be fine. They also have no dine-in as of this writing, and they still have pandemic-era serve-through-a-hole-because-you-are-a-biohazard type service.
