Loved loved loved this place! The food was all made fresh! The broccoli was crunchy (in a good way) and the sauce was delicious! The shrimp fried rice was very tasty and full of flavor! Also, the egg rolls were filled with with meat not mushy veggies. We also ordered the spring rolls (not pictured here) they were also very tasty and the peanut sauce was served with peanuts and warm!
I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for legit (American) Chinese food.
Usually a good stop for us, my girlfriend like the Pad Thai and I prefer the beef Pho. The menu is extremely huge, and the portions are generous. The staff is super friendly and helpful when deciding on a dish, with any issue you might have when dining in.
The pad thai was great as always, Phyllis said. My pho was tasty, although the rice noodles were way too overcooked and the beef tough and chewy on this visit, thus preventing a 5 star score.
When this place first opened up we used to go all the time but my first problem happened awhile ago when me and my family went to get food here I ordered the blackened chicken when they gave us the order we realized they had the other three meals but forgot the chicken. So we told them they made it but they rushed it and didn’t cook it long enough I ate it and within 20 or 30 mins I was dealing with both throwing up and diarrhea that lasted atleast two or three days. I had not gone back for a long time until three days ago I went with my dad and I ordered the beef and broccoli thinking it’s hard to mess that up. I ordered and it came out within maybe three mins I started eating it and realized immediately that again it was severely undercooked the broccoli tasted like it was raw and hadn’t hardly been cooked at all the beef part was the same tasted like it had hardly been cooked at all sadly the only thing that was decent enough to eat was the white rice. So I basically paid about 15.00$ for some white rice. I love on social security and I hardly ever eat out because it’s so expensive and I will never waste my money here again. I would like to think maybe this happened because it was so busy but we were the only people there besides one other table of 4 or 5 Air Force guys. I will not be going back I will not throw my money away here ever again. Even if I was offered a free meal I would honestly be scared to death to eat it. I don’t ever wanna get that sick again!
Awesome food! I have been dining here since it opened. When I was single and now that I have a wife and kids it's our go to. The Phở has the best broth around I don't even add anything to it. The pad thai pure awesomeness. Teriyaki chicken has a carmalized sauce, it's amazing. I've eaten pretty much everything on the menu except for the cucumber salad. The menu is affordable, the portions are very generous, and very quick especially for pickup orders.
I love their spring rolls and their pad tai
Was just ok. Definitely not great.
I've been enjoying this bistro for years always a pleasure always fresh food friendly staff excellent customer service I've moved to Sahaurita but I will always make time for HOT WOK ♥️

Love coming here lol. Very good portions per price and everything always tastes good.
i move restaurant
Love the food. Fast service. Nice, relaxing restaurant. My favorite is lemongrass salmon. I get that everytime.
Management is unprofessional and rude.
We had delivery, I'm from NYC so I might be biased. But it wasn't good. The portion came mixed with white rice. We ordered chicken and broccoli and general tso chicken. The chicken was stringy and the sauce was non existent.
i love their pho! <3
Second time they have given me the wrong order within a month.
Both the honey chicken and the broccoli beef are pretty bad. We ended up feeding our entrees to our dogs and microwaving frozen Costco chicken bakes instead of eating this.
This little hidden gem has some of the best food feels homemade. The food arrives quickly and everyone is so nice. Definatly recommended the crispy green beans even people who are like yuck to green beans will like these.
Staff is friendly, and the food is good the portions are worth your money..
Fun food
I've never had anything that I didn't like here. The only thing they are missing is atmosphere. The teriyaki chicken is wonderful.
Ordered a pretty bland Kung pao chicken. When you order you are asked about which of 3 or 4 sides you want. They are all presented as equal but all of them but white rice cost $4 or greater more. They would change my order after charging $19 for the meal listed as about $13. When I mentioned that they didn't communicate the upcharge, the cashier smugly pointed to a small sign near the cash register.
The fried rice and Kung pao chicken I received weren't worth almost $20.
Always good but stick to the all stars and avoid the Pho.

Lo mein is flawless
Wings are incredible
Crab puff s 10/10
Pho is great too
Antes estaba muy rico y venía seguido última vez comida sin sabor, en los tres platillos que ordené no regreso más.
I enjoy coming here for the Mongolian Beef. Today, the crispy rice noodles got skipped, ruining my experience-the one item that makes this dish unique. Overall, my whole dish tasted fishy and not at all the flavor I was looking for or remembered as being so good before. Leaving items off a to-go order isn't a good look. Might not be such a quick place for me to consider for takeout any more.
Been coming here for years. The food is amazing. They’ve always been great and very friendly. Recently their new staff just doesn’t seem to care as much… already had two bad experiences in a row. I’m really sad to say I might be looking for a new spot to go.
Edit : much better service every time after. Maybe it was just two bad days for the staff. Glad to see the change in morale!
Ok, they don't really have an atmosphere. What they do have is hot and fresh tasting food. On second thought, don't go there. Stay away cause it's... Haunted. Yeah, that's it...
No, the food is really good, and so is the service.
Do not order anything Pod Tai here. Not the place to get Tia flavor profile. Took one bite and threw the rest in the trash.
Pho comes in a peppery broth with a nice amount of fish sauce
Good food for a great price. 12 dollars more than takes care of you.
Been coming here for years and the food ALWAYS puts me in a good mood and is enough that I can have some the next day. The honey chicken is a god send lemme tell ya. YEAH!
Loved loved loved this place! The food was all made fresh! The broccoli was crunchy (in a good way) and the sauce was delicious! The shrimp fried rice was very tasty and full of flavor!

I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for legit (American) Chinese food.
The plates are massive, filling, and affordable in this economy. My partner and I accidently ordered with our stomachs and found that our $60 worth of food could very well serve not just two but a part of four.
The chefs work really fast as well as the staff up front.
There's really nothing negative to say about the restaurant aside from the interior being a bit lackluster, but with looks aside, the meals are delicious.
100% recommend for new customers
Restaurant was filthy. I regretted deciding to eat here as soon as I sat down. The blinds were covered in thick dust. The wall had paint chipping off the walls. The ceiling had stains. I felt grossed out. The food was bland. The broccoli wasn't even cooked so it was very hard. Way too many sprouts. More sprouts than noodles. Won't be going back.
The food was good. The main ingredient was very little. There was a lot of rice.
Service is a 10/10 and food is even better
Went in to get some quick lunch while getting my car serviced around the corner. I had the tomato tofu and veggie spring rolls soo good will definitely be back. Service was awesome as well
An UberEats driver stole my delivery tonight and Hot Wok made it completely right. Have been coming here for years and appreciate the staff and owners tremendously. 10/10 recommend to everyone.
Love their honey chicken and deep fried green beans!
Love this family owned place. I have had a variety of dishes from here and they are always fresh and delicious. It's my go-to Asian food take out here on the east side of Tucson.
The best Vietnamese food I’ve had outside of Vietnam
Every time I go in great service and the food is bomb.
Large portions, great food, great spices & flavors, friendly staff, incredible variety of menu items. You could literally throw a dart at the menu board and get anything it's all good.
Wonderful service and atmosphere 👏
food was soggy, I had the orange chicken and vegetable lo mein. the lo mein had no flavor, the orange chicken was soggy and no flavor as well. I won't be back
Ordered food to go - we live very close by and we’re hosting friends. Broth was cold and the cuts of meat were chewy. We ordered tomato tofu - we were hoping for a savory dish, but the tomatoes were very sweet instead.
Service is always nice, but the food unfortunately is not.
Very delicious plates. Appetizers are okay, but the entrees are very good.
The sushi to go next door was awsome!!!!
My wife and I recently had the pleasure of getting a to-go order from this restaurant. We ordered the orange chicken and the beef and broccoli. The prices to portion ratio was great! The only drawback we had was that the food did not have much flavor. And then be from broccoli and mainly tasted Ginger only and in the orange chicken I mainly tasted Bland chicken and Bland sauce
Tons of food for the cost and the best crab puffs!!
Lots of menu options, the food is pretty tasty. I would recommend the crispy green beans and lo mein noodles. In my personal experience, I like how they are quick with to-go orders. They are usually ready to go in less than 10 minutes from putting in my phone order. I paid a little over 12 for a lo mein noodle entree which is combination of shrimp, chicken and beef. I have attached a picture of the of menu items updated pricing (taken 12/18/22) ✅ Update: I also added close ups of the menu on the main page. It wouldn’t let me add screen shots here. Just FYI 👍

Love to get my Pho here
I love love love their pho I swear it’s a cure all. Every time I’m sick this is what I get and my daughter has Covid so I’m gonna go get her some right now but besides that their customer service is unmatched they are so sweet, so kind extremely friendly I just love customer service.
Today was the first time eating from here.
Terrible tasting food!!
I ordered combination rice, pad thai, and spring rolls for $33.
I'm hoping it was just this time that the food was tasteless, because their reviews are excellent, which is why I chose Hot Wok Bistro.
This was the first time we tried Hot Wok. My wife and I got the fried rice, crab puffs, chicken wings, and the short rib. Everything was phenomenal. The service was great. The gentleman at the counter offered to make our wings extra crispy which was appreciated. 10/10 thank you!
Fantastic food, we had sesame chicken and orange chicken. Best we have found in Tucson, this will be my go to place.
The food is quick reasonably priced and very delicious. I am so surprised. This is not your typical Asian food place. I will be back many times, and I will bring people with me to eat.
25 dollars for rice outrageous
Amazing!! Ordered Togo-I am so glad I gave this a try!! Authentic, high quality, flavorful, great portions, great price. Blown away. I’m from San Francisco & has been hard to find anything that compares. Hot Wok is where I’ll be coming from now on. Thank you for your heart & soul in your food. Got the shrimp lo mein - did not need any soy sauce, perfect Asian noodles & veggies (not just spaghetti, shrimp & green onions, like other places), chicken fried rice - again, ate right out of the box - those tiny bits of rice, veggies. I’m more of a veggie than chicken person, chicken was finely chopped & perfect for us. Fried wontons - great flavor!! Yay, fully satisfied & a steal for the quality of cooking received <3
Good service
My son and I ate here, and it was amazing. Fresh and spicy. It's a must visit.
They have a bidet! I own one, so I know it's the best, but I seldom poop away from the house.
Absolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly and pleasant!
Delicious food ..I order Pad Thai..
I live nearby and went for the first time recently. Huge portions and fast service. Fair prices for what you get in return. Highly recommended. We will definitely be going back often!
Stopped coming here about 15 months ago when we became disappointed with the food. We just tried again and we were very pleased. Hot Wok is back in our rotation.
I ordered the Beef LoMein with extra veggies, the Beef Phô and crab puffs. The staff was very nice, caring and hospitable. I didn't have to wait long and the food 2as hot off the grill/stove! It was the perfect meal!
Great food, fast, and affordable
Good food
Great people and food.. services. Great!
Cómo siempre la comida es muy buena espero no cambien al chef
Always friendly service and great hot food.
First time going there. The staff was ok. I ordered pho and honestly it was so bad. I got sick to my stomach. My bf got fried rice with chicken, beef and shrimp and it was good. Never going back. I usually don’t mind spending money but it did hurt spending that money there.
I got the Singapore noodles and spring rolls. Noodles were very good and flavorful and it was a big amount, fed 2-3 people. Spring rolls were kind of bland but sauce was good. Staff were also very nice and quick.
Been going to Hot Wok since it first opened probably fifteen years ago. It's still great.
We were greeted at the door by very friendly staff. They were helpful in explaining the menu - which is extensive!
Our food was very good and we will definitely go back. :)
The seasoning on my chicken chow fun was fantastic and the spring rolls were large. The dipping sauce for the rolls was full of flavor.
It is apparent that care is given in creating their dishes. Portions are generous!
10 stars..wonderful customer service. Great Asian food. Best place I ate at..give it a try. Awesome guys..thank u
I order pick up and the food is always delicious and made quickly. They don't have chili paste, which is a bummer. The curry is mediocre but the veggie/tofu lo mein/fried rice is good. Their tofu spring rolls are filling and the right price. This is my go-to spot for a quick meal for the right price
Staff was very nice and friendly. The food was sub-par at best and we will not be returning. The food tasted and smelled (that kind of burnt smell) as if the cooking oil was VERY overdue for changing. The chow-fun noodles were overdone too. Though the tables and floor appeared clean, the boxes piled in one corner and the very dirty kitchen door gave an appearance of apathy of the owners. I did not want to think what the kitchen looked like. We did not take the leftovers. So disappointed!
Polite staff and quick service!
Great shrimp fried rice, great service and friendly staff.
Wonderful food! Was very pleasantly surprised.
Have eaten here previously without much to do. But last week it was horrible, the chicken was nasty and grisly. Not a fan anymore. The wonton chips are good.
Hello, we've been coming to Hot Wok for nearly 10 years, the prices no longer match the quality. The price for any extra sauce is $1 regardless of how much it is. Please bring the older cook back, he was the best & the food tasted traditional.
Always forget to take a picture cuz I can never wait to scarf down my food ! Si delicious! So quick ! And did I mention DELICIOUS! Friend green beans and pho! On point ! Literally next door to my house - I got lucky with this one !
Great food made fresh. Fantastic traditional menu. Friendly and quick staff clean environment I'd highly recommend this place the prices aren't bad either
Food at a good price. To tired and to late to cook, so decided to take out. Gunna pass into a food coma with the wife later watching TV. 50 dollars got us a feast. Crab puffs are a must as well.
Have ordered quite a few times now - they are always friendly, order is ready quickly for pickup, portions are enormous, and this last time I ordered something they were out of and they called repeatedly until I picked up, switched it out for something else and then added a whole additional order of crab ragoons to make up for the difference in price. Food is really good too - I usually end up getting a few things for about $30 but it's easily 3 or 4 meals - there is so much food in each order - highly recommend!
Average place good food good prices but not very clean and looks a little outdated.
Fast service, prices used to be way better but now they are like everywhere else. Chicken Pho went from around $7.50 to $12 in less than a year. The food is good and comes out quickly, but the price increase is the difference between going once a week to going maybe once every 2 months. They also shut down the kitchen considerably earlier than actual closing time.
The sesame chicken DELICIOUS!!!!!
Courteous staff and quick service. Great tasting food at good prices. Clean, open seating area.
We have eaten from Hot Wok on many occasions. Sometimes the food was pretty good, other times it was fair. But this review has to do with something different. This evening we ordered food over the phone for take out. When we picked it up, we noticed the price was wrong. We totaled it up several times and found that we were overcharged. When I asked the young man behind the counter about it, he gave me an itemized receipt which had one of the meals marked $4.00 more than the menu price. I pointed this out to him and he said it was a mistake because they had changed the menu prices a few days ago. Yet the menu price said $11.95 and they had charged us $15.95, so I kindly asked for the $4.00 back. His response was that he was sorry and the price was wrong. SERIOUSLY? You will steal from your customers and just say sorry? $4.00 is not a big deal. Stealing is a big deal! False advertising is a big deal. I wonder how many customers they have stolen from? Definitely NOT going back to this crooked restaurant!
Read the reviews before heading over and boy were they mixed. The food was amazing. Should have taken heed of the reviews that said the portions were big. Had to get a doggie bag. Got the beef,shot ribs , pho combo and crab puffs. Soup of the pho was delicious 😋. Wouldn't get it again because of the size but it was definitely on point with flavor. Beef dish was amazing. Ribs were nice but needed a bit of salt. Added a bit of sauce to it and that made it great. Thought the puff would have big bits of meat but I didn't -that did not take away from the taste at all. Service was so quick. Got in around 6pm and was eating by 6:04pm. Young man was so pleasant. The person who left that bad note on him might have been having a bad day or caught him on a bad day.
I ate here about 10 years ago and it was delicious...I decided to try it again. I was disappointed. Nothing like I remembered and my stomach didn't agree with it.
It's great for vegeterians, do not recommend for vegans.
Bad service. No sriracha for to go order. Bad attitude of the young glasses guy at the cashier. Rude, debate with customers , lack of customer service.
Never come and eat there.
Beware of their stingy cost policy.
Great food, fast, friendly service and fun music. My boys and I have a new favorite place!
I highly recommend it 😊👍👍👍👍
I have been getting food from this place for many years now. They have great food and very wonderful customer service. My favorite dish is the sesame chicken and the spring rolls!!
Always hot and fresh. Clean as well. I like the fried rice. Just wish they had some hot mustard. Haha.
Pad Tai is delicious. One can alter the ingredients to fit health concerns. Service is always on point and fast.
Excellent service. Fantastic food at reasonable prices. Never disappointed going here.
I love this place! Food is great and the staff is so friendly and sweet ♥️
Always a great food, i suggest the wings!
My first time…I ordered through google/post mates and the order was ready in 5 mins!! My first time ordering through google as well. Good value, good flavor, looking forward to trying more dishes!
The food was good, but not great. We wanted asian and didn’t want to cook our own. The food was good but a little bland. Definitely American style asian fare. If local corner asian food is what you’re looking for, this is it.
Amazing services,super clean ,delicious food 👍🙏 totally recommended 👌
Delicious every time I go! the red and green salsa 😋 are always so good and spicy!
I've been coming here for years, I love the food. It's always hot and fresh. The veggie egg rolls are always perfect.
Food is always very good
Workers are friendly; helpful; place is clean! the food was great! there's a lot of it for the price. Wish it was more cost effective. Great experience dining in with friends. 😃
Get a lot for the the price. Very good service as well
People were very nice and food was ready on time! Mediocre food quality
First time customer and I don't understand how this place has so many good reviews?!
Spent 100$ had waited an hour and Everything was tasteless!!! Nothing was spicy- the crab puffs had no imitation crab and literally tasted like cow manure🤮. General Tso chicken was sweeter than teriyaki sauce and half of it tasted like burnt plastic-not sure if that was from the chilis or not. Broccoli and beef didnt have any flavor at all-not even the broccoli. I ended up spitting it out and calling it quits and eating the 100$ loss.
Everything had a watered down bland flavoring-i probably would've had more flavor from hose water.
The only edible thing was the prepackaged fortune cookies. Extremely disappointed we will not be returning
Food was pretty good but seems like they’re going cheap on the electricity because it was pretty hot inside the restaurant
They offer a variety of good food! They are pretty quick when you call ahead and give good portion sizes. Just make sure you check to make sure you have all your condiment’s and utensils because various times I ordered to go and had nothing or forgot the sauce that goes with the meat. Aside from that, the food is delicious! Highly recommend!
We were in town for a couple of weeks, did a search, and found this restaurant has high rating and great reviews. Ordered Mongolian beef, and vegetable stir fried lo mein. I have had a lot of Mongolian beef, I'd say this is the 2nd best Mongolian beef I've ever had. The vegetable stir fried lo mein is good, you can taste the flavor from high heat cooking. I will visit again if I am in town next time.
Absolutely love their food! Only issue I had was last night when I had a pick up order and brought it home and saw it definitely wasn't the same as far as how much sauce was on the chicken. Come to find out they changed the amount of sauce because people were complaining about soggy chicken. Brought the food back today and was able to get a whole new plate that was absolutely perfect! Thanks guys! You're amazing! Stick to the original!
Went with a group from work. The food was good as it almost always is, the service was super fast and they accommodated us well when more members joined our group unexpectedly. The cashier was very friendly and made us all feel very welcomed.
Good food fast service!
Love this place because they have dairy free options.
Wow diamond in the rough, great food... Great service... Must try beef and broccoli, fried green beans and shrimp bowl were awesome... Golf links between prudence and Pantano... Next to dairy queen
Perfect customer service and very tasty food, perfect spot for a quick meal with TONS of leftovers. We enjoyed the Crab Rangoon, perfectly fried and crispy. The Pho soup was tasty, the veggies were very fresh. My favorite was the different beef dishes, spiced to order and very tender. We definitely will be making this a "go to" spot for weeknights.
BEST CRABPUFFS IN TUCSON!!!
Good food except they need to have snow peas lol
The food here was good, not the best we've ever had but was definitely good. We ordered the lemongrass shrimp and the lemongrass tofu.. I was happy to find vegan options on the menu.. This bumped the Star rating up for me.. The portions are huge. You will not leave here hungry. The other reason for 5 stars is the service. Although you go to the counter to order your food, the very sweet young man at the counter was so very patient, professional and friendly! Way to go. We felt welcomed and comfortable.
Bad food got bug in food and they would only refund the meal with the big in it and who knows if there was a bug in the rest ilof it did not wanna find out
Did Take out today-the pork Fried rice was plentiful and very tasty.
The best spring rolls in town. Not the fried type you get other places but the cold rice paper wrapped deliciousness served with a warm peanut sauce. Definitely worth a stop if your wanting spring rolls.
The food was excellent and the service was as well.
Cheap, fast, and super tasty.
Amazing food, generous portions, super friendly staff!
Its was really good, nice portions.
