| - 3 stars for the friendliness of the staff, quick delivery time, fair pricing, and overall quality of ingredients, but I felt that my meal lacked flavor and spice.
Ordered the garlic eggplant, fried rice, and an egg roll for delivery. The food came very quickly (within 30 minutes) and the woman who took my order on the phone was very warm and friendly.
The fried rice was the highlight of the meal--decent texture, not too salty, and loaded with fresh-tasting vegetables. The egg roll was nothing special--it was pretty bland, didn't have a lot of vegetable variety in it, and I got zero nutty flavor from it, but it was crisp and not greasy, so that was a plus. The eggplant in garlic oil was not a hit for me at all. Eggplant was overcooked and mushy, the oil was overpowering and had zero garlic flavor, and though the dish was advertised as hot and spicy, it had no heat whatsoever. Not impressed.
I probably won't order from them again unless I'm in a pinch and I want delivery Chinese food quickly. There are much better places in the Madison area--it's not worth ditching those places to give Magic Wok another try.
