In 1990, the first North Hollywood visitor was served by City Wok, East-meets-West cooperation.
A trendy yet casual restaurant serving authentic, upmarket Asian cuisine was the dream. Today, Restauran…
The hot and sour soup has a wonderful tangy taste with a lot of spice . Perfect yin to the yang. The tofu is meaty and the bamboo shoots have a wonderful crunch. If you like spice , give this a try. You wont be disappointed.

The City Wok Chicken recipe is highly unique and is my go-to for a tasty and filling meal. The calamari is excellent too- not the frozen generic rubbery crap that many other restaurants serve. I've been a regular for years, so yes I'll be back.

Barely edible. The Cashew Chicken Full sauce was so watery and bland, there was no flavor. The mixture of textures was awful as well. The Mongolian Beef Full was ok. Beef was chewy and vegetables were too soft. The Vegetable Spring Rolls (4pcs) were fine but also a little chewy. The saving grace of this meal was Pan fried dumplings which were actually quite good. Nice flavor, juiciness, and texture. This was our one order out night of the week and we deeply regretted it. Way too expensive for the quality of food.

I used to love this restaurant, I have been coming here since I was a kid. It's been over 20 years now, their food is overpriced for the portions and inconsistent and sloppy. Looks or tastes nothing like it used to. Why is my orange chicken in a bright red sauce swimming in it like it's soup? It used to look like the picture. Crispy in a thick darker sauce. The chow mien was clearly undercooked, the noodles were still white and not crispy and browned like they usually are. Don't bother ordering from here, the no longer care about quality.

I've been enjoying City Wok for the majority of my life, it's always delicious and remains a great value. Sesame Chicken Half is one of my favorites, along with the Honey Barbecue Pork.
