| - As I set out to do after my last review I've continued exploring the menu and discovered what have become my two fave dishes from Magic Wok - chicken fried rice and chicken lo mein. I've ordered from here too many times at this point to rate it anything less than five stars. While I was in the process of packing up my apartment and moving they were a godsend - I'm fairly certain the deliver guy was feeling deja vu when he returned to my apartment a couple of days apart.
Both the lo mein and fried rice are very generous portions that feed me for a few meals at least, and both reheat quite well. The lo mein features large slices of chicken, onions, sprouts, bamboo shoots, and probably another thing or two I'm forgetting. The fried rice is also chicken-heavy and has a bit of egg and some veggies. In both, chicken is the centerpiece; I'm still surprised at how generous they are with the meat. The lunch deal is still amazing, but if you go for the lo mein be ready for it to come on a bed of rice. A little strange, but I love rice so I'm not complaining.
I recently stopped in to pick up my food and the restaurant is warmly lit but was completely dead on a rainy Tuesday around 7:30. Decoration is a bit bare, but you're going for the delicious, inexpensive food, not the ambiance. Long story short, Magic Wok will make for a magically delicious meal.
