Discover the exceptional flavors at Mason Wok & Sushi in Oswego. Try our signature Chicken Fried Rice, a standout favorite, and our delectable Sweet & Sour Chicken.
Food was above average. The Sushi and appetizers were better than I have had at other local places. The restaurant was very quiet, which was nice, but the bathrooms were incredibly dirty. Clearly, they had not been cleaned in more than a month due to the thick layer of dust on everything and all feces and urine on the toilets and floor were not hygienic. This restaurant could be great, but the lack of care for their restrooms makes me wonder where else they may be neglecting to clean thoroughly.
It’s been a while since we have ordered, but needless to say we will not be ordering from Mason Wok again. The chicken is literally all breading with one or two pieces of fat. Couldn’t even be saved drenched in the sauce. The shrimp is poorly cooked, not even an attempt at deveining and the lo mein is fettuccine noodles at best. We called to inquire and the lady who answered was less than accommodating and hung up on me when we asked what could be done to resolve the issue and I ultimately asked for a full refund so we could order from somewhere else.
Says on menu and online ordering platform "soup with crispy noodle" They refuse to honor this and try to get and extra $2 for the crispy noodles that are advertised as included. I see the same sentiment in a review from 7 months ago. Change the website or honor what it says!!
Update: I went to order a lunch special this week and they had blocked my number for leaving this review!!! Unbelievably petty, especially after they refused to fix their own mistake where the website has offered crispy noodles with soup for well over half a year! I called from a different number lunch special. It wasn't bad, but they really need to improve their customer service and attitude.
Food was horrible over cooked orange chicken. Chicken fried rice was flavorless.sweet and sour chicken was horrible it was rock solid and not even edible. Customer service was bad as well the young lady who took my order was way to rude I was going to cancel my order. Turns out I should have. I will be ordering a pizza thank you. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. No stars
Unusually rude service. Amazing they can stay in business at all. Food is mediocre at best and the rude service makes it not worth returning.
I don't know how it's legal to serve "chicken" that is just fried cartilage and breading. My standards aren't high and I'll eat literally anything but this was completely inedible. Spent five minutes chewing a piece of gristle. I'd rather eat rawhide from the pet store
The sushi was so disgusting. The ones that were supposed to be cold were warm. Made me worried we might get sick. They didn’t even get the order right. They added fillets of fish on the top of each roll. I specifically ordered the ones that wouldn’t have it. I’m not even home yet but am super worried we might get sick from the pieces we did try. Really need to up their game or close their doors. By far the worst meal I have had in years and I will never go back.

Ordered via GrubHub, had Massaman Curry and also Pad Thai. We really enjoyed both, flavor 5/5, portions 5/5. I’m glad that we gave them a chance, this is definitely gonna be a go to going forward.
This is our go to for take out sushi. Love there party trays!
I recommend it, the sushi is not as good as the Chinese food. I would say skip the sushi but the Chinese food is very good.
Changing my review from a 4 star I rated years ago. Now 1 star at best. Ordered chicken sesame and general taos the chicken is now non- existent but triple breaded chicken skin. Both entries the same. Crab Rangoon like a onion Rangoon now and the chow mein is all cabbage with 2 slivers of mushrooms and a pee pod. Its clearly this establishment greed is now of more importance over customer retention. I've ordered over 10 yrs here, now never again. Will not be back. Also they refuse to give sweet n sour sauce or even a packet of soy sauce you have to beg for it now. Not one napkin either. So very disappointing.
Fantasy sushi! So fresh.
The pork egg rolls and the egg drop soup were tasty, the crab ragoons should be called onion vs crab. What really put me off to this place is it says “soup with crispy noodle” on their menu yet I didn’t receive any. I called because we definitely wanted them and stuff happens. The lady who answered the phone said you have to order them if you want them, I asked her why the menu says it comes with them then? She immediately said “it doesn’t say that” I told her it absolutely does where ON THEIR WEBSITE. My spouse went back up to get them, not an apology or anything…this was our first time trying them and unfortunately the last.
I was desperate for a good Chinese restaurant in Oswego and finally found one right here. This place did not disappoint.
We're big fans of Mason Wok. Have been for years. Food is ready in 10 minutes for takeout.
Great food taste, quality & consistency
Amazing sushi. Their homemade soy sauce really is out of this world.
Hot fresh and very tasty
We have gone here for years
Rarely disappoints
The crab rangoons are among the best I’ve ever had. Try them out on Wednesdays if
you like sushi 1/2 off their signature rolls. Fried rice is very good also. The service could be better, but it’s not bad.
Wonderful food and staff.
The sesame chicken was bone and chewy
Rice was chewy and egg rolls were burnt. However delivery was fast.
Great food...fast and hot!!
Order for pickup when got home they put multiple things in one container with no marking of what they were. The lady we picked up from was rude and containers not tall enough. Don't go here not worth it.

delivery driver harassed me for tip two times. each time i put tin in through grub hub. i’m not ordering again
Checked website. Indictated dine in. Walked in and were told take out only. Was looking forward to nice relaxing lunch. Found East China Inn on Montgomery Road and was happy with our choice after a disappointment at previous business.
My go to place for Chinese. Always great.
Tried chicken,beef,shrimp,noodles,rice,crab Rangoon and egg rolls .
Everyone has thrown away the food and has eaten the egg rolls .
We will not be back again.
Never disappoint
Not the place to get Chinese food in Aurora, Oswego or Montgomery. The only kinda good thing here is the chicken fried rice. I ordered 3 dinners of sesame chicken, but the chicken was dark and hard to bite on. The worst part was the disrespect and rudeness of the young Chinese woman in the front desk. I was looking at the menu as it was my first time there, she seemed rushed trying to get me to choose as if I was dumb ordering food. I won't say anything more, go ahead and experience it for your self. Don't forget to let me know how was your experience here for the first time, if you ever dare to go. *ps I know some people are used to the way their culture is, but some people are not and we only want to be treated with respect and kindness.
Ignore the reviews it was actually bad food I mean some we’re good so MAYBE I might come back but defo not a option for now cold food just yea
Food is really good, a little bit oily but it’s very flavorful and is always generously served.
Maybe the girl on the front is not that great on customer service. But let’s be honest you barely interact with her... you order, get your food and leave.
It's ok meal..
So definitely no dine in like it says. 🙄 3 stars because their food is honestly good. But. It was a wasted trip driving here to have dinner.
I WILL NEVER ORDER AGAIN...Almost an hour after I placed an order, I called to see what the status was and was informed 'it was delivered '. I left instructions to knock and they never did. Delivery person just left it outside! Food was Luke warm and the girl on the other end just said "ok". If it wasn't for my guests, I'd of driven over there demanding my money back. Rude, inconsiderate and definitely not the only location around
Foods generally good but people could be more friendly
Something don't sit right they won't open for dine in so what's the point of sushi they refuse to add a tip to the 10 dollar minimum along with a rather distasteful cashier who was sitting in an opposite room when I walked in I really don't give alot of smack to restaurant owners but how are u in buisness?? So I walked into pepes next door and had my food on the table in 10 min
I'm a truck driver stuck in Oswego.
I called to order food and was told that they would not deliver to me.
Lady on the phone was extremely rude.
I have a valid address and was just wanting some food. It's OK tho I just ordered from Number 1 china and spent $45. Number 1 China didn't hesitate with my order even tho I'm a trucker in a truck.
Thanks for nothing. 😠
Their chicken is basically fried tendons with very little meat attached. Don't bother, it's tough and stringy.
Their sushi is pretty good though.
Casual sushi and americanized asian food. No surprises and all done well. Great specials on signature rolls a couple of days during the week. Even after moving a half hour away i make time to hit this place up once a month.
I have never had worse Thai food. Would not recommend the curry or pad Thai. The Thai basil dish was ok but really tasted more like Chinese food. Overall, it seemed like the quality of the food was good, but the recipes were way off and not traditional with ingredients at all.
Very good quality Asia dishes. Our favorite ❤
Right off the bat the lady taking orders was on her phone the entire time and exceptionally rude. She didn’t give us a time estimate for our food and ignored us the entire time. While we were waiting we noticed the kitchen was ridiculously dirty and had clearly expired food being pulled out of the coolers and freezers. Not to mention the entire kitchen staff not wearing masks or gloves while preparing food. I didn’t even wait for my food because I didn’t want to take the risk. Overall, terrible, don’t go here.
Everything we have ordered was good and they pack it well so it stays warm for our 12 minute drive home.
Everything was good. Only bad was I ordered a qt size sweet and sour chicken and it was so over cooked the chicken was like a rock.
I was able to pick up my order quickly and the food was great! My first time trying .. liked everything I ordered. Will try different items next time
First time and the food was great. Super busy on Christmas Day but worth the wait.
Great Chinese, great sushi, friendly service and prompt delivery....ya can't ask for more.
So delicious!!! Very generous portions! The lady taking my order was patient and helpful. Absolutely delicious!!! I am so excited about finding this gem! Can't wait to go back!
Found hair in my sushi 👍
Best Chinese food around and best I've ever had.
General Tao's chicken was overcooked and hard to chew. Last time for this place after 15 years.
The lady that takes the orders is very rude and their food was NASTY ! Do not recommend !! 0000 stars
My husband and I have ordered from them 3 times since we found them only a month ago! We base how much we love a Chinese restaurant based on their fried rice, their fried rice is literally one of the best around! Portions are huge too! Glad we found this gem!
Accurate order fulfilment and the food is always hot and very tasty. The food from one order to the next is always consistent.
This is Usually my favorite place for Chinese! However, this last time, my broccoli with beef was terrible. It was extremely spicy and had things in it that have never been in it before like green peppers, pea pods, and even mushrooms? I get it every time so Im pretty sure I know what’s in it. I decided to call because it was so hot I couldn’t eat it. I asked if they changed the recipe and the lady on the phone was no help. She insisted that they don’t just put broccoli and beef in it. I told her this is what I get every time and there was something different about it. She claims they made it no different than they usually make it. I was extremely disappointed!
Just rude.
Used to be better. Not as good anymore.
Awesome Food,Always go there
Love it.🥰
I've been going to Mason wok since I was a little kid, their crab rangoons are the best in the area. The sushi is also really good and pretty affordable. Highly recommend.
Will never get food there again!!
Food had spilled out of container. Gravy all over! Egg rolls were horrible. Way over done.
Have gotten take out countless times over the years. Never like this!!
NEVER AGAIN!
Great
Language barrier perhaps ? Asked for lite spicy on food, second time requested. Second time super spicy hot.. Time to find another restuarant Asian style
Underrated place. Sushi was nicely prepared and delicious. Could usd a little more food variety and some TLC in the dining room. .
Best crispy orange beef!
Excellent food and service
For where I'm located out this way, this place doesn't seem to disappoint. I haven't done Delivery yet, but will be moving into an area very close to that and I'll see how that goes. When I come in to place an order, takes about ten, maybe fifteen minutes to make on the spot and by the time I get home, the food is still very hot and fresh! Can't complain with that. I have yet to try their Sushi, as I wish to very soon as I'm a Sushi fan. From what I've had from there thus far has been good. They treat me good when I come into order, as well. Great staff. 🤘🏼
Really good sushi and food 🥘
Very Poor Customer Service!
Ordered online and estimated arrival time was 6:04. 35 minutes after my order time. At 6:35 I called because I hadn't received my order yet. Lady on the phone says delivery guy just left with your order. My order gets here a total of 45minutes late! Cold Food and missing my sweet and Sour Chicken. I call back and lady on the phone says they are too busy to bring me my missing order. So I said fine give me a credit and she says she cant do that I have to call Grub Hub Customer service because she cant do it. How is that possible when I ordered the food off their website!! I dont recommend this place at all!!
The food and server was excellent. Will be going back.
This place has the worst people working here.Very rude. I found bugs in my food. I never been so disgusted in life. I was ordering food from them for over 3 years and now they lost me has a customer for ever
Thier sushi is excellent. Much better than thier regular cuisine.
unpleasant service, very low quality of dishes
Good food and good prices. Come hungry.
Best Chinese food in the area. Prices are fair, food is fresh and lots of options
Great for good, quick, and inexpensive Chinese takeout. Definitely scratched our itch.
Quality has dropped in my opinion. Dropped hard and fast.
The sushi was so disgusting. The ones that were supposed to be cold were warm. Made me worried we might get sick. They didn’t even get the order right. They added fillets of fish on the top of each roll. I specifically ordered the ones that wouldn’t have it. I’m not even home yet but am super worried we might get sick from the pieces we did try. Really need to up their game or close their doors. By far the worst meal I have had in years and I will never go back.
Loved the sushi
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. RUDE PEOPLE AND DISGUSTING FOOD.... DEFINITELY A FRONT... WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!! Walked in to the restaurant part to try some sushi since we tried the food on the takeout side. Was not greeted just stared at by the workers in there and was a inconvenience to even be seated, was left alone for 10 minutes with no water or any acknowledgement of our existence while the employees enjoyed their food. Then after the lady came by and finally gave us water, asked us "what do you want" we asked what she recommended to try and she did not know the menu and simply stated we should know what we "like" and the menu describes "everything". Very rude and very inconsiderate of customers. If I could give this zero stars i would!!! Never coming back again. DONT BOTHER WASTING YOUR TIME OR MONEY. ITS ALL A FRONT
Best ChopSuey I ever had. and lots of it.
This is our favorite place for Chinese food. The atmosphere is great if you want to dine-in, but they do take out also. The house fried rice is really good, and all the entrees we've tried so far have also been yummy.
They need to honor the No MSG requests for entrees. Was sick for 2 days. Oswego is lacking for good consistent Chinese places.
I order a few smaller dishes so I wouldn't have to cook this weekend and they were all awful that I ended up throwing them all out. Definitely not worth your time.
Friendly, fast service and good food.
Late night hunger they've delivered
Food was good, service was good, atmosphere was good
Surprisingly delicious and affordable
Had a craving for egg rolls but when I got them they were sooooo tiny. They literally cooked the egg rolls as soon as I got there, even though I called for pickup. Pretty dingy place too. Never going there again! Oh and they only take credit card with a $10 min purchase. I had to break a 100 for a couple of flimsy no good egg rolls!
Lunch special was great!
Have been going here since they opened. Quality and variety of dishes never disappoints. A great deal for the price.
Very enjoyable
My wife and I ordered take out last night. Green Curry and Lo Mein. This was our at least 5th or 6th time ordering from Mason Wok. We had asked for our food to be spicy. Since Thai food is meant to be spicy. We got home and the food was completely bland. Almost like a bland meal you would get at a hospital. Completely flavorless. It was a complete disaster. The food being not edible as it had no flavor. We immediately called the restaurant and lady on phone said sorry we missed where you asked for spicy. Then she proceeded to say that we could come back and pick up hot sauce. We declined as it was a 10-15 min drive back there. No apology what so ever. She then said we could get a 15% discount next time. I am in the hospitality industry and anytime something like this arises we offer at the least refund and a apology. This establishment obviously doesn’t care to keep its customers. We ended up ordering pizza from Lou Malnati for dinner which has more spice than mason wok food we had ordered. Luckily we paid with our credit card and called and explanined we basically got the wrong meal and weren’t offered to remake or a refund and they were able to refund us. After this expierence we will never visit mason wok. Nor would we recommend to family and friends. If you like your Thai food to be bland then this maybe the place for you but not so much for us !
Fresh tasty food at a reasonable price. Good service too
Always excellent food. Friendly wait staff. Reasonable prices for premium cuisine.
6 of us decided to grab sushi on half off Wednesday, 3 of us got food poisoning. Sushi was fantastic going down, just not coming back up.
I thought the food was great. It wasn't busy at all my family and I were the only ones there service could've been better tho
Great food, love the Mandarin menu.
Love this place best Chinese food around
Beef and broccoli 5 Stars you won't leave hungry
Great sushi . Sushi lovers yummy
Excellent place. We take home from there all the time, but we have eaten in as well
Have not ordered in a while, but very glad I did. Everything super fresh and delious. Tried an old favorite with a new twist so yummy. Will definitely order again.
Excellent food. Many Sushi choices
First the good...the food is better than other Chinese take out in area. BUT the counter workers are AWFUL. Very rude but I’ve gotten used to it. Tonight though I called in my order, gave them my number for pick up and sent hubs to pick up 15 mins later. They told him they didn’t have any order. Then they ignored him so I called again. Gave them my number and she said didn’t have order. She said she had an order exactly like mine but for a different number...when she read it, it was close to mine. I asked if she thought it was mine and they just got number wrong. She said order again. That was an hour ago. FFS. Terrible service
Nice menu selection.
Chicken Teriyaki to die for...Crab Rangoon perfectly crisp and Lo Mien perfectly al denté... Priced a bit high but worth every cent.
Awesome food. Fast service!
Place was empty (absolutely) on a tuesday night. Should have told us something! Restrooms were dirty. Sushi was some of the worst we have had. Owners should re-think their whole restaurant plan. We shall not return.
Rude staff. Be aware they told us that the dining area was closed an hour before the posted time simply because we had children.
Chicken fried rice is good
Called in to order 30 minutes before close and they refused and said they are going home. I order there often and when I told them they would lose my business they told me they dont care.
Do not have set business hours if you are not going to honor them. Bad attitude and the food quality has declined. Go to No 1 china instead much better service and food.
Customer service has become absolutely horrible. Will not be coming back ever again. We have been in the Oswego area for 10 years and will gladly support other local businesses. Hell, I might even go to Panda Express over these jerks.
Worst crab rangoon ever. Onion was the only flavor
My favorite
If I could give them -5 stars I would. I never write reviews, but I felt I should to warn everyone. This place was usually our go to spot for Chinese food...but not anymore! DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!! My family and I ordered a beef fried rice & egg rolls on 8/30/18. Today, 8/31/18, all 5 of us were physically SICK TO OUR STOMACHS!! Puking all day long since this morning!!
We went there and waited an hour for 3 sushi rolls before walking out. Zero services and the restaurant was empty. Do not reccomend.
Great value dollar for dollar. Tofu dishes are delicious, so I imagine their non vegan options are even better. Attentive staff but not bothersome. Won't blow your mind but will never leave you unsatisfied.
It's a little better then your usual Chinese take out
Half off sushi on Wednesday is the way to go #volcanomaki
Decent
Ever since they sold to the new people there absolutely TERRIBLE this place USE to be good
Needs more rice, one little bowl not enough. Other then that not too bad. Place has nice atmosphere, bathroom could use a little work.
Good sushi rolls and good lunch special
Since adding the sushi bar it seemsthat the quality of food has declined. Still decent take out though.
The food was good and they have a large variety, your bound to find something you like
Food was good. Prices are reasonable. Service was fast.
The food here is delicious. The only quibble that I have is that I would like the spicy dishes to be a little more spicy
Their lunch specials are a great deal. My wife loves their sushi.
Tried to go here for dinner on a Saturday night and was told carry out only. Disappointed.
