If I was only going to review based on the food I would have given it only 2 stars, but I do vow to go back at least twice. If I am wowed by the food I will update my rating.
I wanted to try Woo's for lunch because it is within walking distance of my salon and once again I am trying to give back to my community by spreading my once a week lunch dollar around. I loved the decor and layout of the space. The service was very efficient and friendly. The complimentary green tea was a great surprise because it was actually a bit chilly when I went.
Now on to the food. I ordered the BBQ pork which was a huge disappointment. It was so incredibly basic but the veggies were very fresh and cooked perfectly. But the pork was dry, chewy and I even had 2 pieces that were pure gristle. The sauce was so sweet that I thought I was brought sweet and sour pork instead. Nope, that is the sauce. I did like that you had an option of either white, brown or fried rice. The egg roll that comes with the lunch special was good, nice and crispy on the outside, but it had meat in it. Now I am a carnivore but it made me think of my non meat eating friends, is this the standard or do they have meatless egg rolls too for those that order meatless entrees?
The portion size was good and even though I ended up not eating my leftovers it would have been enough for another lunch or light dinner. I will be back to try again...
