| - Went there for my mom's birthday on a Saturday. We made reservations for 5:30; came in at 5:15 and we were immediately taken to our table. It wasn't that busy - yet.
The food here has improved quite a bit, I first came to Wok of Fame during it's soft opening. I must admit, they have made a lot of changes - for the better.
Hot food was good, I TRIED to get a little bit of everything, but there was just too much food for one person to even try a piece of each.
The mashed potatoes were a little strange... The consistency seemed like it was the packaged mashed potato and it had this.... seafood after-taste to it. I even asked my family about what they thought, and they agreed. The sashimi was cut a little too small. I'm used to sashimi being cut in the length of a credit card. However it was HALF the size of that. I guess I shouldn't really be complaining, as it is AYCE.
On the high notes, the chicken wings were deliciously moist and not over-salted. They DO have crab legs, however they aren't pre-cut like the ones at Mandarin are. Oh yes, and my favourite, they have coconut, mango, green tea and red bean ice cream! (They had me at coconut)
As for the decor, it's nice. However I feel like it's just too much. All of the different themes mushed together. I guess they were trying to do themed areas like Mandarin (like the Fish room, Bird room and Garden Room), but it just didn't work for Wok of Fame, because they didn't have walls to divide the themed areas.
All in all, Wok of Fame has redeemed itself from the disaster it was when I first went. For those that are wondering, "Which is better, Mandarin or Wok of Fame?" I'd say they're both different in their own ways - I can't really choose :(
FYI: Always call to make reservations - JUST in case.
