| - Kay and I came here the other evening for dinner after having caught sight of it a few times in our travels. Golden Wok Inn sits in a little-known South Hills shopping plaza, and compared to the other businesses nearby, its exterior is reasonably striking.
The insides are rather quaint and stylish as well, and we did not find GWI to be at all "disgusting, dark, and dingy" as one vengeful Yelper put it.
That's not to say that our dining experience was flaming pineapples in bourbon, though. Putrid? No. Dull, inept? Yeah.
The service, while not atrocious, was certainly below par, and aside from a quite tasty wonton soup, we didn't find anything exceptional about our meal.
Ooops. Wait. Kay did find something in her Orange Chicken. An egg shell to be exact. So, I'm forced to dock another star for that. GWI coulda been a 3...
The rest of the meal consisted of steamed dumplings that were filled by a miser (where's the pork?) and on my end, an order of Kung Pao Scallops that were skimpy on the seafood and loaded with everything else, including vegetables and peanuts.
When you see GWI, I'd advise yas to just keep drivin'.
