Hot Wok Bistro

Amazing place with good service. For 13 dollars I got a Mongolian beef with chow mein and a soup. And for 14 dollars or so I got a walnut shrimp. This place knows how to get their seasoning right and the food didnt feel too oily. This is what a chinese takeout should be like @all the other bay area restaurants.To all the other chinese takeout restaurants... Cut the fancy bs just make a good cheap dish.Come to Hot Wok Bistro, this place will get u right.Honey walnut shrimp could have been a little more. (4.75 stars... @yelp ur grading system no good)

We ordered seven dishes. Locals place!Kung pao shrimp, veggies with chicken, beef with onions, sweet and sour with fish, veggies with tofu. Chow mein with chicken. Each dish could easily feed two very light eaters without rice.The brown rice is flavorful and recommended.$142 without tip. We had seven people and ate well. If everyone is really hungry, I would order nine dishes plus brown rice.Customer service: very good.Bathrooms: okDecor: ok, a few orchid plants abound.Not noisy here! medium level.Parking: ok, a bit tight.

Trash I came here and spent $65 on four different dishes. The fried rice was fresh, and it was wonderful.The orange chicken, walnut shrimp, and the sweet-and-sour chicken all tasted like they just reheated it from yesterday added a touch of sauce, and because I was getting it to-go, I wouldn't realize how bad it was until I got home. Sweet-and-sour, chicken and orange chicken were dry and chewy and tasted like, maybe someone didn't pick up their DoorDash/Uber eats delivery the day before and they just decided to reheat that food and give it to me as fresh. I'm extremely disappointed, but I'll just never go there again and I have to warn everybody.

Good local food options with a solid menu, non-traditional dishes. The Mongolian beef looked great but was way too salty for my taste. The ton ton garlic pork noodles, unfortunately, didn't live up to expectations--it was like thick, heavy gravy piled on top of overly dense, sticky noodles. What a disappointment compared to the flavorful dishes I remembered from years ago.Friendly, superb service.

Excellent Chinese food just a few minutes away from the downtown. They have a small menu but they have the California Chinese food classics. You can see them making the pot stickers by hand. Very nice people in a casual restaurant. They have a few seats inside it's probably better for takeout .

Years later, Hot Wok Bistro remains one of my favorite Peninsula lunch spots for value and satisfaction. While I've tried various lunch specials, I keep returning to their delightfully spicy options of the Kung Pao Chicken Stir Fry or the Mongolian Beef. Lunch specials come with soup and a choice of steamed or fried rice. The service is quick, and the food is always served piping hot. I often need a to-go box, which serves as a welcomed mid-afternoon snack or a second meal.

Has been out go to as a family my whole life. We love these guys. Always such good food and you can't beat the authentic family vibe!!

Boys night out and my pescatarian/ vegetarian bro wanted to try this place out so we did! Place looks like the artwork hasn't even been updated in 3 years, in faded. We thought it was a small place but you stroll through a narrow hall past the kitchen and see more tables. A bit culturally different and , hey it's transparent no one can drop food and put it back on the wok. Ordered the spring rolls which was yummy, honey walnut shrimp that was amazing, also sweet and sour shrimp pretty good!!!! Egg fried rice was smooth too. For the price and the decor that was wonderful, me and my friend said these places tend to be pretty good!!!!! Would recommend!!!!!!

We were outside 10min before the store opens. But we weren't the first customers. As soon as the restaurant opens all the other people were pouring down into the restaurant from out of nowhere lol I tried so many Chinese places and this is one of the best place for it! The staffs are very friendly and it looked like most of the customers were regular there. If I lived near this place, it would be my go-to Chinese restaurant. The Szechuan dish was so crispy but not that spicy. The combination fried rice had the perfect seasoning. They have plenty of tables, there are more rooms inside.

Not gonna lie, I had absolutely zero expectations for this restaurant when my friend suggested to get lunch here. In fact, based on the name Hot Wok Bistro alone, I was actually preparing for disappointment. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I came by!Restaurant is larger than it looks from the outside, with additional tables past the kitchen. Honey walnut shrimp was delicious, mongolian beef was tender and spicy although too much onion, and the tan tan noodles were saucy and hit the spot. I'll definitely be back.
