  • As with Kelly A., I'm not at all understanding the 4 and 5 star reviews. I have this pesky preference for affordable quality. Red Wok is affordable, anyway. My friend, who lost 90 % of his sense of taste due to a head trauma thought this place was okay. He likes buffets because he believes he's 'getting over on you' when able to gorge without restraint. Do you KNOW what a half-gallon of pudding looks like on a plate? And why is this guy even my friend? If you're a dedicated fan of Valley bargain buffets just bring your shovel and proceed. Even with my considerably more conservative approach, I was able to get my money's worth with careful dectective work and selection. My choices from around about 120 items came down to a good, simple baked white fish, unusually light and tasty seasoned fries, and a too sweet, but otherwise passable mini eclair; other desserts were fine as well. Some notable 'misses' for me here include: *Baked mussels w/ melted cheese. Not nearly fresh, these tasted like the very bottom of the sea. The one I tried ended up wadded in a napkin, something that almost never happens with me. *Crawdads. (crayfish) Headsucker's Delight. You know who you are. *Prawns. A tad too authentically presented. *Sushi. Bland and dry, although there was a superior soy-based dipping sauce a few stations away. *Extremely greasy soup pots. *Lesser quality cuts of all meats which included odd tastes and textures. (not in any good way) *Korean short ribs. (kalbi; galbi) Very, very tough and would have benefitted greatly from a few hours in a crockpot. *Chicken skewers. Severely charred. *Kimchi. My biggest disappointment here since I was first introduced to the real thing in Korea, it's country of origin. This version had a weird, pronounced chemical taste that implied some (dangerous?) shortcut in preparation. China is, after all, still giving us lead (the deadly metal) in kids toys, and anti-freeze in Dollar Store toothpaste . Just saying.. The steady trickle of mid afternoon patrons showed it won't matter what I say here anyway so come on down. Ahh So.
