Chili Wok

Was surprised by how good and authentic the food is. A great place for take out if you want Szechuan flavors or tasty authentic Chinese. The portion sizes are huge. Ordered the pickled cabbage fish soup and it came in a buffet tray. Lots of fish and great flavor. Would definitely get again. Also got the beef mala dry hot pot and it was excellent, beef was tender and not overcooked. The La zi chicken tasted good but the chicken ratio could have been larger to avoid the crispy texture overpowering the chicken. Would definitely order from here again. My new go to for Chinese takeout.

Luv the food here! Spicy means spicy so be aware. Our main was the spicy cabbage soup... filled with flounder, veggies including my fav lotus root.... Enough to share IMO either way 4 people... depends on your appetite! They do a lot of take away but I prefer to eat in especially with ordering a soup! We also got pan fried pork dumplings. Not a fan of the sauce which is on the sweet side that comes with it... rather just use the chili and soy on the table to create my own. Note: things come out when ready in the kitchen... so we got our soup first than dumplings... which we are okay with... but if your wanting something first order that than wait before ordering other items.

When we first came in, it was a bit awkward as we just stood there without knowing where to go. There was only one person manning the takeout/delivery orders, and the other manning the dine-in orders. Despite making eye contact with us several times while cleaning a table, we ended up seating ourselves only to be asked to move to a different table (which was fine, it seemed they were expecting a large party). The space is tiny and we were able to grab a seat at 6:45pm. Less than an hour later, it was packed with people waiting for a seat!What we ordered:- Mapo tofu, 5/5. Amazing! I have yet, until now, to have found a spot that has good mapo tofu and that's perfectly seasoned and generous in portion.- Ganghood fried chicken, 100000/5. MUST TRY!! The chicken is so flavorful and the spicy only adds to it! It comes with chili flakes and cilantro that blend in as well. The chicken is juicy, perfectly friend, and crispy. - Singapore Rice Noodle, 4/5. Lots of noodles and eggs but not as much protein and other toppings so that was lacking. The prices are so good for the portions and quality of food. Definitely recommend coming here and this might be my new Chinese spot!

My sadness at the end of the long running Great Wall Szechuan House, the one place in DC where you could really get a high quality ma po tofu, was mitigated by the discovery of this suburban outlet. It is a small shop operating mostly as a takeout. For dining in, the people who were theoretically providing service appeared quite attached to their phones and it was difficult to get their attention.The food, however, delivered. They offer a vegetarian section, which is notable in that Chinese cuisine has lots of non-vegetarian tofu dishes (Americans think tofu means vegetarian, but this is not always the case). I started with a salad made of murshooms which are variously called names like "woodear" and "black fungus". The name doesn't exactly sell them, but the crispness is distinctive. Here, they had a sweet and sour sauce for these mushrooms, which is atypical in my experience. The flavor combination worked anyway. Indeed it was so good I had to think about whether my mapo tofu would come off second betst. The tofu, however, delivered. A rich peppery aroma greeted me, and the flavor was a classic mix of salty and savory clashed with the astringent herbal note of Sichuan pepper.There were a handful of other things on the menu I might consider, but they provided what I asked of them.

Delicious and a favorite amongst our family! We have not been to the restaurant yet, but have ordered several times for delivery! The menu is extensive, sharing authentic flavors and culture of Asia! Everything we have ordered so far has been savory with a consistently perfect balance of spice. Portions are very generous, so it is perfect to share family style. Make sure to check their sites and delivery services for great discounts and BOGO free options. A highly recommended Chinese restaurant and we will definitely be back for more! Enjoy!

What a great find! The food is amazing. Maybe the best Chinese food in the DMV. Can't wait to go back and try some more dishes.

My sister has declared this the only serviceable Chinese place in Vienna (ouch?). It's located in the same plaza as Giant and CVS -- coincidentally where I and many others apparently learned how to park -- and it's a little hidden from the outside, but the interior is clean and chill. A lot of people order takeout from here, and it's well packaged for that.They have a menu that's more Americanized, as well as a more traditional menu. Some of our favorite dishes are sweet & sour spare ribs (糖醋排骨), lazi chicken (重慶辣子雞), and baby bok choy with tofu skin (鮮腐竹上海青). All of them are a bit more on the oily side but the portions are great and they serve as great leftovers as well. The price is also super inexpensive, especially for Vienna.

Had to use my Uber Eats credit. Plus, Chili Wok has a BOGO free on fried rice. I love Mapo Tofu (Hunan version) so I thought I would try that. My son loves Crab Rangoon so we got an order of that. Uber Eats has a lot of fees but they always seem to deliver on time for the most part. We saved $14.99 on the extra fried rice is great for us because of a growning pre-teenager athlete who is hungry a lot.The only problem with the chicken fried rice is the lack of wok hei. The breath of the hot wok was not there. Otherwise, it was a decent fried rice. A tad on the oily side tho. The crab rangoons were crispy and a decent cream cheese filling with some flakes of crab meat. Now the Mapo Tofu shocked me. Usually, when an American Chinese restaurant says on their menu that the sauce is spicy, it usually isn't. HOWEVER, the Chili Wok version of Mapo Tofu was really spicy. Red chili oil with tons of szechuan peppercorn mouth numbing spice! I am used to the hunan spice which is more tolerable. I like the dish but wasn't prepared for mouth numbing. And it was a super generous portion is a deep plastic bowl. The tofu was also generously portioned and it was so silky soft and delightful.If the fried rice had wok hei, I would bump my rating to a 4.5. This 4 is more of a 3.8/5 rounded up. If you like szechuan spice and really a spicy dish with building heat & a mouth numbing feeling, get the Mapo Tofu!

This has become one of our favorite places to frequent when we're on this side of town. The space is pretty small but service moves quick enough that you usually don't have to wait too. My favorite dish is the spicy tofu, but they have other great options as well. Definitely recommend if looking for a good chinese option.

Came for lunch and got seated and ordered right away. Started with the hot and sour soup, then split the lazi chicken, ganghood fried chicken and chicken in spicy garlic sauce. The chicken in spicy garlic sauce was a lunch special that also came with fried rice and a spring roll which was a great deal for the three. Everything was good, but the lazi chicken and ganghood fried chicken tasted pretty similar so we didn't need to order both. The chicken in spicy garlic sauce was definitely my favorite. All the portions were good and everything came fresh. The lunch special alone makes me want to come back!
