Wukong Asian Restaurant

My husband and I had been waiting for Wukong to open, after Koko's had closed. We charge our car at the Electrify America station in the same parking lot, so it's always exciting when a new place opens up.We stopped in just a few days after Wukong opened, and even being a new business - they were on point! The restaurant was decorated very nicely, everything was very clean and inviting, and the menu looked incredible!The server that we ordered from and chatted with was so nice and kind, wanting to make sure to explain everything we were ordering and what came with it, etc. She also came over to ask how everything was after we got our food and had eaten for a while, and was very interested to make sure everything came out perfectly. Great service.To start, we tried the Crab Rangoon, which were super creamy and flavorful. I hate when rangoons are chunky and fluffy inside, making it sort of dry. There was none of that here! Just a really good, high quality version, which isn't easy to do.We tried two entrees - the hibachi and the Malatang soup. Both come with different proteins you can choose, and both were fantastic!For the Malatang, we ordered the Hot and Sour with fatty beef. The broth was SO delicious and full of flavor. It definitely had a bit of heat, but only for a twang of flavor, not to just be hot for the sake of being hot. The meat, veggies, and noodles all worked so well together - it was like heaven in a bowl.The hibachi we ordered was the Steak and Chicken. It came out full of the proteins in a tasty hibachi marinade, along with some grilled veggies, also in the same sauce, and a side of brown rice (that was great when mixed in with the veggies and meats!) The hibachi also came with a side of Yum Yum sauce like you see at the tableside hibachi experiences, but you could have it on the side and dip it yourself here, which I liked!For Wukong only being open a few weeks, they have definitely already impressed me a ton, and I will for sure be back many times.Definitely check them out next time you're in the area. Or just make the drive out there - you won't regret it!

We were so excited to check out Wukong, and wow, this place completely exceeded our expectations! The food is delicious--what a pleasant surprise.The ambiance is casual yet welcoming, and the service was absolutely top-notch. Our server was incredibly friendly and patient, taking time to explain the menu and even encouraging me to try the hot pot. As a huge fan of hot pots, I know how tricky they can be to perfect, but the team at Wukong absolutely nailed it.I ordered the hot and sour hot pot (fair warning: it's a little spicy, but in the best way!) and added fatty beef, bok choy, and potatoes. The broth was unbelievably flavorful, the ingredients were fresh, and the portion size was massive--plenty to enjoy in the restaurant and take home for leftovers. At just $16, it was an incredible value for such a hearty, satisfying meal.We can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Wukong is officially a new favorite spot in Omaha. Highly recommend giving it a try!

A new restaurant that took over for Koko's Korean Chicken, and previously 5 Spice restaurant. You can order at the counter or use the self kiosks on the side of the wall. I ordered the Hibachi Chicken and Steak combination. A salad is delivered in a plastic container with salad dressing. The main entrée comes later, already in a takeout container. The steak and chicken lacked some robusto flavor, even though dipping sauce is included. Overall, service is very good and the restaurant is well maintained. 4 stars for the service aspect, with the combination plates needed a bit more flavor.

A new restaurant Wukong took over Koko's Korean Chicken, Brought a different feeling.Malatang is a new thing in Omaha. I tried it and it tastes good， I will come again.

New Restaurant and it did not disappoint. The crab Rangoon's are very good they did not skimp on the filling and they have a nice crisp to them. The yogurt drink was very refreshing and the hibachi was a good portion. Service is very friendly and you can also order through a kiosk will be coming back

First time here and absolutely delicious! Can't wait to go back again. Love the way it looks inside and the vibe is amazing. Thank you to the owners for wonderful hospitality and service. :).

I saw this place opened up recently so we decided to give it a try. I've never had malatang, or cooked hotpot, before. It's like regular hotpot except you choose the toppings and soup base and they'll prepare it for you. I ordered the pork bone broth malatang, which was one of their new broths they just recently added. It was pretty good, but a little bland for my liking so I added some chili oil. The beef and toppings were cooked perfectly and everything was served pretty quickly! Overall, everything was pretty good and I would come back.

I typically don't leave reviews but Wukong was a unique find with such lovely staff. I've never tried Malatang before but I wanted to do something new. It's sort of like hot pot because of how much flavor there is but instead it comes separately and I got to choose three meats and three non-meats from the list. I got the hot and sour and all the ingredients came together in the bowl. I was worried they would be soggy but they were actually the perfect texture. I'll be coming back here in the future, I definitely recommend it.

Great service. Food was great! They will make sure you get the flavors and spice you want. Very helpful. I highly recommend this place.portions are pretty good as well. This is my second time visiting this restaurant.

I decided to try out this new restaurant and was definitely not disappointed! I've never tried Malatang before because it's something i've never seen on the menu of any other authentic chinese restaurant. The meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly and there was tons of flavor. So glad this was my first introduction to it!
