Wok’n’roll

A large amount of delicious food, and lightning quick (about 20 minutes!), delivery.
I also got Crab Rangoon and Sesame Chicken in this order. All of the food was amazingly good. I’ll definitely order again!

Got dinner here tonight. I ordered takeout, not something the buffet at the time. The szechuan tofu was genuinely good in that way that only cheap Chinese food you were craving can be. Was in the mood for tofu (which nowhere else in town seemed to have) and it was lightly fried all over (just about perfect texture, actually). Big portions, low prices and it was ready in 10 minutes. I’m rounding up to a 4 for that, I’d say a 3.5 was my first inclination. I’ve had better, but definitely had worse too.

Orange chicken was mushy, rice had no flavor. No plans to return. Maybe I should have told her I wanted my take out freshly cook. She took it off the line. Boo that woman!

Alright! I’m not sure how long this place has been in business over there in the Manhattan Square strip mall, but I’m surprised it doesn’t have any reviews! So let me be the first to take a crack at it.
What made me pick this place off of the Unilocal list over the others that already have reviews was their website (
) I was able to see their entire menu, order online, and pay with a card before I even left the house! From their website it seemed to be a trendy place. I think I was mis-​led, but not disappointed.
I got there when the generated email confirmation told me to. This place looks like a mom and pop restaurant, but asian style. Not tacky, but very simple and straight forward. There is seating if you want to eat in. They have a buffet, but that wasn’t looking so hot. I was hoping my take out order wasn’t just scooped from that.
For my family, we ordered an orange chicken, garlic beef, house chicken, hot and sour soup, and a spring roll. Here’s the breakdown:
Orange Chicken: So-​so. The kids liked it, but out of the chinese take out boxes it was a bit… mushy? Probably too much corn starch if I had to guess, but it tasted alright. Solid B–
Garlic Beef: Same sort of idea as the orange chicken. Decent flavors, the veggies were on point, but too thick and it coated the beef a bit too much for my taste.
House Chicken: This was pretty delicious. Their house sauce is a semi-​spicy smokey flavor. The chicken had the same sort of mush problem, but not as bad as the other things, and the flavor on this entrée was the best.
Hot and Sour Soup: This was soooo tasty. It’s peppery, so beware of that if you don’t like pepper. I don’t particularly care for pepper myself, but I found myself really enjoying the slight spice of the pepper with the citrusy flavor in the soup. This was the best thing we had, and we will order this again.
Spring Roll: I’m not sure what happened, but I’m pretty sure I got a fried egg roll. I was thinking that since this was a thai joint too that they’d have the nice big cold spring rolls. Maybe they do, but I definitely got an egg roll.
Honestly, it’s pretty good for a carry out joint. Not a ton of traffic, easy location, and decent prices (Our entire meal was $ 28 with tip). Thanks wok-​n-​roll for feeding my family decently on the night I was too lazy to do it myself.

Normally I would say you can pick only two from the three choices listed here — (Good /​Chinese /​Buffet) — But at Wok’n’Roll you get all three. The staff is the same every time you go in, they are never slammed in my experience, and will cook anything you ask. I am a big man. I love food, and like to eat. I can go to this place and almost cry over the extremely high quality of the food they serve. I reccomend this place to anyone looking for an AMAZING chinese buffet. Although it is a small restaurant, it is by far the Best of any kind of restaurant in Oak Ridge. Don’t miss this one if you are in the ridge!
