Molly Woo’s Asian Bistro

Good Happy Hour. Reasonable $ 5 small plates and specialty drinks and good service from the bartenders.

I would say that this place is comparable (maybe slightly better) than PF Chang. I’ve been here a few times. The service is always excellent. The hostess and servers are both polite and helpful. The problem is the food. It tends to be on the greasy side and not particularly flavorful. We’ve had a number of different dishes here from time to time.
The lettuce cups are probably the one menu item I like the most here. With the accompanying sauces, the chicken and the salad cups go well together. The sushi rolls are sort of below average for a sushi place, but edible. Their pad thai is not bad and their firecracker chicken is pretty good. This is a place that has a fun ambience, friendly service, and okay food all at a reasonable cost.

There gluten free calamari is excellent just make sure your gluten free items have the bamboo toothpick. They even have a dedicated fryer ! The price is a little high but the food is very good !

Consistently high in quality and great service. Best spring rolls ever. You can’t loose with the Mango Chicken, Asian Chicken Salad, Firecracker Chicken, and Crab Ragoon!

This place is an insult to Asian culture, seriously. Beyond that, a crappier P.F. Chang knockoff.
Scallops — awful.
Fresca cucumber berry drink — awful.

My husband and I tried Molly Woos for the first time today! I had always heard good things about this place, but I have to say it was quite disappointing! For a starter, we had the tempura shrimp and vegetables! The shrimp were just little tiny ones and the batter was not light and delicate like it should be! It was more like eating onion rings! I had the beef with broccoli, I did not really care for the sauce. It was ok, just nothing special!!! My husband had the Mplly’s feast which is described as stir fried vegetables and fried tofu! It had a better taste than the beef dish, but was just nothing special. We have been to many Asian inspired restaurants! I actually prefer PFChang’s to this place! My least favorite Cameron Mitchell restaurant. I would not call this high end at all! Also the server who waited on us had grooming issues! He seriously needed t

I dined at Molly Woo’s for the second time this past weekend with my mom while visiting my parents. I’ve only come in here for lunch, but always enjoy the food and service. In the past two times, I’ve had the lettuce wraps, the crab rangoon, the egg rolls, and the happy family entrée. My mom and I typically pick two items and split them and it is always enough food for the both of us. On this particular time, we came in here around 1pm after a bit of shopping. We opted for a booth in the bar as we didn’t want a lengthy experience. We chose the lettuce cups (as they are called here, but they are lettuce wraps) and the crab rangoon. The lettuce wraps were by far some of my favorite lettuce wraps. The chicken mixings is perfectly cooked and the sauce they use gives it enough flavor without drenching the entire wrap. The crab rangoon was good as well. They offer six of them. They are smaller than a regular chinese restaurant, but much tastier! I also went with a glass of pinot noir, while my mom had iced tea. The bartender did a fine job, but the service was nothing to write home about. We did sit in the bar for a reason and all in all it was a good experience. I’d be happy to come back.

Definitely a great place to eat. It’s not that expensive for the great food and service you receive. You can also order half plate if you would like. I went for lunch with a co-​worker about 6 months ago and now I go back at least once a month if not twice a month even to order out. The firecracker chicken is soooo good. I haven’t ever had anything that I don’t like yet. My friend ordered something called a lettuce wrap for an appetizer and I didn’t think I would like it at all. It turned out to be delicious. Great relaxed energy. Not loud either. It’s a must try!!!

Came here last night for dinner with my family. On a nice day, molly woo’s has a great outdoor seating area that’s spacious, comfortable, and beautiful. I ordered and shared some wonton soup, steamed potstickers, and pineapple chicken. I was a huge fan of the soup and potstickers, but the pineapple chicken was nothing out of the ordinary. The portions were a bit small for the price but the quality and restaurant ambiance was great! The inside is very well decorated as well with a contemporary and cultural spin. The restaurant is continently located on the outer edge of the mall by Brio’s– easy to access and valet was only $ 5. Overall, would recommend this place!

My husband and I stopped for a late lunch on our way back to Cleveland. This was my second visit.
Both times we had friendly, helpful servers. Love the ginger peach tea which we order with a glass of ice to pour over for iced tea.
I think the food is consistently good. Is it the best Asian food I’ve had? No, but restaurant is clean and nice ambience with friendly staff. And there is something to be said about convenience and consistency.

The food here is fantastic, not 5 star cuisine, but standard chinese food done very well, little pricy but mostly worth it. However, for takeout, about the fifth time I got it, received a substantially under portioned amount of my entrée, like ½ of a standard Chinese food container costing well over 12 bucks. Tainted my otherwise great experience with this place.

Cameron Mitchells attempt at Asian Fusion. Credit for the try but the one time I ate here I was in bed for 3 days with food poisioning from bad sushi… another try? me thinks not!

Me and my sisters took our mother here for Mother’s Day. Stupid me, I booked for Saturday instead of Sunday, but the extremely helpful and considerate wait staff got us in right away with no prompting or asking on our part.
I had the Philly Roll appetizer, with Mandarin Orange Beef for main course and cold green tea to drink. Everything was delicious, not too heavily sauced, and was the appropriate levels of hot and cold.
Our waiter was polite and knowledgeable. None of us had eaten there before, and he took the time to go over the menu and talk about some of their specialties. I left satisfied and pleased, and I can’t wait to eat there again.

This is one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in the central Ohio region. I also like that you can actually watch the kitchen prepare your food. The staff is always friendly and the wait on food is always timely. It’s dark in the restaurant if you can get a window seat. One funny mention; the music that was playing was R & B. We were wondering why not Chinese. It doesn’t really matter

High class Chinese cuisine in the heart of Polaris fashion place.
Great hot tea choices in cast iron kettles.
Good appetizers and food is good.
Happy family in brown sauce is my choice. Wife always gets fried rice.
Have had two occasions where rice was hard on night though

Having never eaten at Molly Woos we were quite impressed. From the time we walked in the door, to the time we left, the staff were incredibly nice. We met up with friends who made the dinner reservation. After arriving we didn’t have to wait but maybe 20 minutes to get our table. We arrived early so it didn’t matter to us.
So many items on the menu to choose from. After reading some reviews on Unilocal and otherwise we decided to get four different dishes and share! So glad we did! I ordered the pineapple chicken and instead of bellpepper I had them add cashews. Sadly, it was the only dish we did not care for. The sauce was really sour which was surprising because of the pineapple. However, our waiter was so great he traded my dish for the honey chicken ~ which was amazing!
We had bottomless steamed rice so also ordered the fried rice. It wasn’t bad! The other dishes we ordered were the tempura chicken, the honey chicken (yes, we had two!), crispy tofu and lo mein. The hubster did not care for the temperature chicken, but the other dishes were pretty good. Again the favorite was the honey chicken!
The dessert menu was anything but Chinese so we had no problem ordering :) Crème brûlée, chocolate cake, and toasted coconut cream pie. Delicious!

You would never know this is a Cameron Mitchell restaurant unless you looked it up. The quality of this place isn’t anywhere near his other restaurants. Go here if you want to eat overpriced, mediocre Asian food.
There’s a pretty decent happy hour: $ 5 cocktails & spirits, $ 5 select starters and sushi rolls, and $ 3 draft beer. The only beers they had on draft though was mainly only Sapporo.
For starters we got Crab Rangoons. They came with some sort of dipping sauce. We’re pretty particular about how we like our rangoons, and these came out harder/​crispier than we like.
I tried the California and Spicy Salmon roll. These were actually pretty good. You can tell this was better than grocery store or cheap chinese, since the chucks of salmon and crab were big! However, I didn’t taste any spiciness in my spicy salmon roll.
My fiancé got the Firecracker Chicken and thought it was good. But it’s $ 14.50. I could get something comparable for about $ 10 at another Chinese restaurant =/​The point of going to a Cameron Mitchell restaurant is for the quality and atmosphere, both of which this place was lacking.
And on to the atmosphere: there was only the quietest music playing and it was fairly empty inside. We were sitting in pretty awkward silence whenever we weren’t talking.
I’d go back since it’s a pretty nice sit down restaurant, and maybe it’s better for lunch or during peak dinner time (not happy hour). But I wouldn’t recommend this place to a friend.

Crab rangoons to start… AMazzzzing! There are about 6 or 8 with each order. They’re perfectly crispy and the red dipping sauce is on point with some scallion flavors.
I ordered the ginger crusted salmon and was thoroughly pleased! The crust on the salmon was delicious and the sauce around the dish is TO DIE FOR!
Service was great! I am never disappointed in this area at any Cameron Mitchell restaurant!

I will miss Molly Woo’s! Had to visit the Columbus area today to take care of some business and had to stop by my favorite Asian bistro! I love the staff and the good never disappoints! I’ve been going here for probably 10 years now and have befriended staff members who have grown into managerial professionals. I always get the firecracker chicken w/​mushrooms on the side and definitely crab ran goons for starters! This is one of many great Cameron Mitchell restaurants that the city of Columbus has to offer. I wish this place could be found in other major cities but sometimes that’s just the way it is! That’s what makes the journey of finding great places to dine more interesting! The décor is amazing and no detail was missed in creating a very relaxing and beautiful environment for its patrons. I highly recommend dining here!

Molly Woo’s is a place that I frequent about once a year. The décor is very nice and the restaurant has a very attractive interior ambiance. On our most recent visit, the service and the food were both very good. I was, however, disappointed with the Wonton soup which I remembered enjoying on previous visits. It seems that the sodium content of the Wonton soup has increased dramatically during my last couple of visits. In fact, it’s gotten so salty that I won’t be ordering it during any future visits.
On this visit, I had their Dan Dan Noodles — one of their «rice and noodle dishes» and it was exceptionally good (chicken, onions, carrot, sprouts and cucumbers in a spicy garlic sauce). My wife had the Lo Mein Combo (chicken and pork) with assorted vegetables which was also very good.
Overall — I think the food is reasonably priced although it’s a bit pricier than your «run of the mill» Chinese restaurant. On the flip side — I think the drink menu is a bit over-​priced and we were satisfied with iced tea. Another plus — unlike many restaurants that serve watered-​down iced tea, the tea was served cold but not with a lot of ice — the waitress then offered to bring an extra glass of ice that we could add at our own convenience — NICE TOUCH.
I’d recommend this as more of a «special occasion» restaurant than a place you’d go to on a regular basis looking for Chinese food. It’s a lot more upscale than your typical neighborhood Chinese restaurant.
