While I am a regular at Golden Wok and either order dinner (in-person or to-go) or the lunch special (in-person) often, today was my first time ordering on the Christmas menu to-go. I thought I would share about my experience for others looking for authentic Chinese food on Christmas when most everything else is closed. Last year, Golden Wok planned to remain open but ended up only being open for to-go orders. This year, I planned ahead and placed an order on Christmas Eve for a 5 PM pick-up on Christmas Day. According to their website, they were open for dine-in and take-out on December 24 from 11 AM to 8:30 PM and on December 25 from 11 AM to 3 PM for dine-in and pick-up though only pick-up from 3 to 8:30 PM. They also had a special menu for the two days that could be found at https://www.goldenwokaz.com/menu. The menu was shorter than usual with some increased prices for the dishes, which made sense. It was still much less than some of the other Chinese restaurants with dine-in options on Christmas Day. I arrived on Christmas Day around 5 PM to pick up my order from the day before. There was a long line when I arrived though it turned out that most people in the line wanted to place an order or missed the note about no dine-in being available. By 5 PM, Golden Wok stopped accepting to-go orders due to how busy they were already. The line quickly shortened to just those picking up orders like me. I paid for my order and then waited with a half dozen others for our 5 PM orders. It took about 20 minutes for the order to come out as there was just one gentleman working in the front, one woman bringing orders from the kitchen to the front, and I'm not sure who was in the kitchen. The order was accurate, and the food tasted delicious as usual. My order was double and triple checked before given to me. While I may have dropped my review rating from 4 stars to 3 stars, I did feel bad for the staff working. While they were short-staffed and behind on giving out orders, they were doing the best they could and I'm still so grateful to be able to have had delicious Chinese food to-go on Christmas Day. I may plan to order my food to be ready a half hour earlier than I need it next year.

Please try the vegetable pocket or seafood pocket, they're amazing! The service great and I like the Asian decor, cozy vibe!

Golden wok has beautiful dining room, but today we wanted to get takeout. We ordered our usual suspects...beef chowfun, bok choy, chicken and vegetables, and mooshu pork. Everything was as expected. Flavors and seasonings were spot on. Our favorite dish was the mooshu pork. It had nice crunch from cabbage and mushrooms with plenty of pork strips in each bite. The staff were helpful and friendly. Enjoy!

First time visiting Arizona, we decided to get chinese food here! The service was great, they are on top of everything! From ordering our food to receiving it was only about 5 minutes!! On top of that the food was very tasteful!

Nice atmosphere and everything we had was delicious. The vegetable egg roll was more like a spring roll but was good. Orange beef was nice and crispy with great flavor that was not overpowering. My husband loved the General Tso chicken and the service was timely, accurate, and pleasant. Definitely going back.

I've been going to this place since high school. Excellent food and great customer service. Love the house special chicken and Mongolian beef. Great crab puffs as well!

I need to be Authentic! Chinese food has not been on my Radar for the past 3 decades . Yesterday , knowing my good Friend Vaughn enjoyed Chinese he picked this Restaurant. The Decor is Dated 1970's! On the other hand from the Egg Drop to the Pork filled Pot Stickers my Taste Budd were awaken . Light food, well prepared and very delicious... I chose Spicy Chinese Chicken with vegetables . Not at all creasy . This meal has changed my mind about eating this type of food in the future. Vaughn and I Thoroughly enjoyed our fellowship time along with a Great Meal

I always love a Chinese restaurant with decent vegetarian options. We have lived in the neighborhood the past decade, and am surprised it took this long to visit Golden Wok. Service was friendly, attentive, and the space was comfortable. Amongst the list of appetizers, vegetarian offerings include the veggie egg roll, veggie lettuce wrap, and veggie pocket. We opted for egg rolls which were yummy and a perfect starter. The soups do not look too veg friendly aside from the tofu soup. It sounds plain and likely something I would not choose. We ordered the tofu with veggies, mixed veggies, and veggie chow mein. The clear sauce in the mixed veggies was perfect as the tofu dish was on the saltier side. The chow mein was just ok. I do not really enjoy the thinner noodles, but the amount of veggies were perfect! Overall, I enjoyed Golden Wok and would love to visit again, maybe even add it to our rotation. I noticed that they had a lot of take out orders AND in person diners. A little different than our typical take out place. Would recommend!

I grew up eating Chinese food, it's easily something I crave all the time, and to satisfy this - the last several orders on my doordash have been Golden Wok! I am so surprised at how tasty and consistent this location is. Almost everything I've ordered hits close to home and leaves me wanting more! Even my toddler will eat the Hong Kong style pan fried noodles (super picky). Every dish has been savory, flavorful, and consistent. When I order from them and try something new I'm always happy and satisfied. Tonight my husband and I were craving Chow Fun (wet style). Usually when you order chow fun it's "dry," with bean sprouts and onions. We submitted our order to see if this was an option, no expectations cause it's not on the menu, wet style with black bean sauce and bell peppers, they did it! So amazing. They also called to confirm what type of peppers! The food has already got me hooked but now that they went this extra mile, I'm a huge fan and will rave about them to all. Give them a go, you won't regret it!
