Wukong Express

Where can I find a place that offer ramen, Korean fried chicken and bubble tea? If you have that same question, Wukong Express would be your answer They are located around the Westerville area and it is the same spot that previously once a seafood boil restaurant. Their set up didn't change up too much and fairly spacious within. Getting a bowl of ramen is the driver for me to try this place out.I got the WuKong Ramen which consist of Chashu pork belly, marinated minced pork, fish cake, half-cooked egg, kikurage mushroom, bean sprout, green onion, seaweed, itokiri and black garlic oil in their house spicy Tonkotsu broth.I really like the chashu pork belly and marinated minced pork. Both are very flavorful and for sure can serve prefect by itself. The broth is smooth, however, the flavor can turn up a notch. I think with all the loaded topping, it dilute the flavor when everything combine. I would need to come back to give other ramen a try and maybe a piece of fried chicken or two

One of the reasons I'm angry we were called out of Columbus is my love for Wukong. Not too large a place, we always catch them at non-peak. So there's plenty of room and we get a lot of attention. It's more sit down and dine then an express.The shrimp and tuna always taste fresh as well as the salmon sashimi. The California Poke Bowl is an excellent choice. A large bowl of Jumbo Shrimp, Crab, avocado, corn and a tasty house mayo at a very reasonable price. Then there's the Korean fried chicken which is out of this world.It was a bit out of the way for us, butthey are always so kind and service is so quick and efficient. Nikki is the best! 12/24

Been meaning to come here for, well, a few years. But I rarely have the chance to eat up this way, and the reviews were a bit mixed, so I didn't make it a priority. Come in, 1pm on a weekday, just a few customers. Friendly and efficient staff (owners, I think.) A variety of offerings: ramen, Korean fried chicken, donburi, poke, etc. I went with KFC tenders, in curry sauce, and crab Rangoon. Came out in a reasonable amount of time. The Rangoons were beautifully made and plated. Check out the photos. Inside, mainly cheese, with tiny flecks of krab. Still, very enjoyable, with the creamy sweetness and the super crispy shell.The tenders were big, and while not the best KFC I've ever had they were pretty good. Crispier than American style, tasty sauce with a touch of heat, tender chicken. Served with some diced white radish (I think.) I got a Coke but they also have bubble tea.I'll be back. Lots of other stuff I want to try. Easy parking in the Schrock/Rt. 3 plaza. Handy to the hardware store and Half Price, etc.

First time trying waking express and over all pretty good. I got the spicy salmon poke bowl. Pretty filling and lots of toppings, all fresh . The service was a little slow but I believe there was only one person there during lunch hour. There is a lot of inside seating so nice spot to go grab some lunch near uptown Westerville

Great Karaage Donburi! Mildly spicy, a nice amount of white rice, covered with fried chicken, corn, furikake, green onion and then eel sauce and spicy mayo sauce. I also ordered the Harumaki which came with a sweet chili sauce. They were crunchy on the outside and tasty on the inside. I would definitely order this meal again, I was stuffed when I finished it.

Soon as we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a friendly staff and took us to a table in the back. The place was pretty empty when we arrived however, most of the tables were dirty. The table that they set us was close to the bathroom, and it smelled! I don't what happened, but it smelled like urine. We moved our table close to the front windows to avoid the smell. Our server came and took our order. The food came out relatively quickly. We ordered the Wukong Mango Green Tea with Mango bubbles, the Soy Garlic Chicken Wings, and the Kar-Rage Donburi. All the food we had tasted good. Nothing stood out, everything was decent. I think for me the smell inside the restaurant kind of ruined the experience.

Absolutely delicious meal fast and fresh, evemy 82 yoa mother likes both the tonkatsu ramen and the chicken karage.

I ordered the seafood ramen and it was basically instant shin ramen with some added seafood. I was so disappointed. I was craving a rich ramen broth and instead got something I could have made from home with a package of noodles from the grocery store. I also ordered the dumplings, those were good.

I went with my daughter this afternoon! I got Takoyaki, seaweed salad, harimaku, and the chatsu donburi, with a taro bubble tea! Food was delicious, the only things that prevented it from being 5 star was the rice seemed old and I wasn't a fan of the egg and bamboo shoots being cold while everything else was warm. As well as the octopus in some of the takoyaki was so small I couldn't even find it when I bit into it. But over all will be back! As well as the staff member Niki was so kinda and helpful. Especially when my daughter was tired and ready for a nap (sorry for her screaming!) it was extremely quiet while I was there around 1pm and seemed to slowly get more busy. I hope business is well for them!

Ordered the Ramen. It was made to order and very tasty. If you like Ramen it is worth a stop. I'll be back.
