| - We had a Restaurant.com gift certificate for Chop and Wok, so decided to give it a try. Knowing that liking particular Chinese food is one of those very personal things, we usually don't go in with pre-disposed notions of what it will be like. This was really excellent. I must admit that the interior is absolutely nothing like any other Chinese restaurant I have ever experienced. It is actually a bar that serves food. It's décor is that of a bar. It's ambience is, as well - especially with TV's abounding. The menu is definitely Chinese and the food - well the food was really, really good. We didn't order particularly well, however. I ordered the Kun Pao Chicken and my wife ordered Almond Chicken. The only difference between the two was that the Kun Pao was nicely hot and had peanuts (as it should), while the Almond Chicken was mild (no peppers) and had almonds (also as it should). I believe the sauces were the same otherwise, and both had the same cuts of chicken and the same vegetables. We will be back and will take care to order things that are obviously going to be different. That aside, we thoroughly enjoyed our lunch - and the 31 beers on tap sure doesn't hurt anything. The best treat was the service provided by Kasey (we had to ask her name as the ticket said, "Server: Counter Day.") We were pretty sure that wasn't her name. Kasey was pleasant, professional, and personable. If you're lucky enough to get Kasey as your server, you will enjoy your meal all the more.
