FAMILY WOK CHINESE FOOD

I had never heard of Family Wok, until I got called to come down to my grandpa's and have Chinese food which is my favourite. His neighbour had ordered a ton of it from this new place that delivered via UberEats. We don't live close-by. The food was really good, and I ate a lot. I've had all kinds of Chinese food, and this was some of the best. We usually order from Golden Pine now, and have for several years. We drive to pick it up. Before that, it was Win Yeung Garden. Years ago, it was Tang Dynasty which I miss. We ordered Family Wok again for a big family friends dinner. Everyone loved it. I've ordered it once to our house, and wish I had just before Christmas. Instead, I cheaped out and got Hong Kong House. Well, never again! Last night, we had a family dinner. My intent was to order from Golden Pine, but I think they were closed. Anyway, I ended up ordering Family Wok on UberEats. We got the dinner for 6, plus a spicy beef dish. One I'd had before, and warned everyone about. Most don't love spice, or cannot eat it, but I dislike shrimp. I admittedly have a love/dislike relationship with this spicy beef dish because, while it's really good, it burns your tongue for a while and can make it hard to taste other dishes. There were lots of comments about how surprisingly good the food was, how it's better than Golden Pine and more. I'm torn between the two, but like having options. Family Wok nailed it again. I just wish they wouldn't have put shrimp in things like the rice or one other dish. I spent $135.34, which included a $16 driver tip. To add onto this: My friend loves their hot and sour soup, but says it's pretty hot too! One more thing: Why does the dinner for 6 say it includes 5 fortune cookies? We got 7, though.

I have not been able to find a good Chinese food in Bowmanville and was so happy this place in Oshawa delivered to bowmanville! It was the best Chinese food I've had in a long time! The flavor was great, it was hot when I received it and it was not greasy! I would definitely recommend this place to my family and friends.

I’d like some Chinese food with the onion I had in my order. I ordered General Tao , beef Lo mein and mixed vegetables. I was given a container with 3/4 onion and the rest noodle and 4 pieces of chicken and maybe 2 broccoli stems. I should have thrown this back at the chef and gotten my money back ! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE !

We were pleasantly surprised by the takeout we ordered from Family Wok! Most of the Chinese food around Durham is pretty much the same, and all the usual dishes are available at Family Wok as well, but I found the food here more flavorful than many of the other restaurants in the area. We ordered the Family Dinner for 4 and added on lemon chicken and beef chow mein to feed a total of 6 people, and there was plenty for everyone. The chicken balls here are smaller than the usual size and they are awesome, the breading to chicken to sauce ratio is so much better. We all commented on how good everything was. We will be back!

This was my first time trying this restaurant and while I did enjoy the food, I have to knock a star off my rating over the fact that requesting my sweet & sour sauce be on the side ended up costing me $0.75+tax. I can understand charging that for EXTRA sauce, and I suspect the 2oz cup of sauce was less than what would have been put on my food had I not requested it be on the side. The wonton soup was better than I expected and seemed like it was homemade and not the frozen, mass produced stuff that has a weird spongy texture to the filling that many other restaurants have. Would I order from here again? Perhaps. Though I guess I won't be asking for my sauce on the side knowing that it means I'm going to be charged a fee for something already included in the meal.

We go here all the time. They deserve 5 stars!!! Their food is always hot and reasonably priced. By far the best Chinese food around and we will back. The best cheese wontons and combo platters. Everytime we have gotten take-out they are incredibly friendly and even if we get delivery the food is never cold.
