Come savor an appetizing dish at Wok-In Chinese Fast Food. Explore a menu featuring wonton soup and chow mein, priced at 11$ to 25$. Their atmosphere has been described as casual. They are open at night from Monday to Friday and are readily accessible by car but also by public transit.
This place has been my favorite restaurant for Cambodian and Thai food since I was in college over six years ago. I have since graduated and moved away from Kingston, however, I find myself visiting the Wok-In every time I'm in Kingston for a visit.
The owner/chef remains the same two person team since the opening of the restaurant thus the consistent quality, menu items and recipes are the same as when they first opened.
The Spring rolls, the number 1(red curry) and the Pad Thai are just simply the best I've had anywhere. The portions are also very generous. The only complaint I have is the small amount of seating in the restaurant, so sometime you will have to wait a bit for a seat but I can't really blame them for that.
This place is truly a MUST VISIT for Asian food enthusiasts. A definite recommendation to anyone who has not tried this place yet.
Oh my god. I've lived in Vancouver for 8 years, and still, I yearn for the Wok In. It's the best Thai I've ever had. Went back recently and it is still totally fantastic. The -- thai food we get here on the west coast just doesnt hold a candle to the delicious goodies that come out of this kitchen. :)
Its very hit and miss whether you even get a seat...
Its very hit and miss whether you even get a seat at this restaurant. I absolutely love it though, I highly recommend it to anyone in Kingston. Even if you don't like thai food, I brought a friend here who tried the number 18 and was amazed by it. As said by others, the service can be a little slow sometimes, but not so much more than other restaurants - I have never had to wait more than 30 minutes for my meal, which seems pretty typical for a restaurant to me!
This restaurant is a gem. Don't let its appearance turn you off...it looks like a dive at a glance, but the food is incredible. I lived in Kingston for 5 years, and moved away a year and a half ago. I was just back in town briefly and couldn't wait to go back to Wok-in.
All dishes are great, but my favourite is number 12 (very spicy - green curry chicken dish), and number 2 (cilantro, tomatoes, pineapple, and chicken...also spicy but you can order without the chili peppers).
During the week, if you go any time after 12 noon, you will likely be disappointed as the restaurant gets full (it's very small). So go at 11:45 or after 1:30, and you'll be fine. They make everything fresh, so sometimes it takes a while...especially if they are busy (going earlier or later assures much faster service). They open at 11:30 and are closed Sundays and Mondays.
Enjoy!
Great food!!
I had been reluctant to go into this place based on its location, but after being fed up with other thai places in kingston and their decent to mediocrity, i decided to give the Wok-In a try.
Everything was very tasty and cheap. The presentation was great.
Best Thai I've had in Kingston in two years.
I have found my new Thai restaurant
