I think this place is alright if you know what you're getting - it's fast food quality Asian cuisine. Probably equivalent to the frozen stuff you can get at the grocery store. Plain white rice and sugary chicken with the sweet and sour chicken. Pho broth was alright. Kinda bland but at least you could taste the anise (albeit very mildly). Spring roll filling was soggy. Came to nearly $40 for two combo meals which was far overpriced in my opinion. Service was super fast and friendly though. Okay for a lunch if you need something fast.

I've wanted to try wok box for awhile now, and I'm an incredibly disappointed in the quality of food that we ordered for the price.
We walked in and wanted to try an order of spring rolls with our dish but their fryer was broken so they could not do ANY sides - which is crazy to begin with especially from other reviews talking about their debit machines etc.
I ordered the butter chicken and the only good thing I have to say is that the rice was good and sticky. The butter chicken sauce had no spice to it, it was unflavourful and afterward I felt as if I was going to be sick. It tasted almost like a thin watery pasta sauce from the dollar store. It was almost a dark brown colour. The chicken was pre-cut cold chicken breast, I wouldn't be surprised if it was still frozen. It reminded me of a lean cuisine dinner - but don't get me wrong, the lean cuisine would have been more favourable than the 15$ I paid for this meal. The naan wasn't grilled, it tasted like bread. It was white and powdery.. out of all of the Indian restaurants I have ever been to, this was the worst butter chicken I have ever had across Canada.
My boyfriend got the shrimp pad Thai. There was no peanuts, and way too much spruce. There was only two shrimp in the entire dish for a total of 15$. It was essential a dish of veggies.
Presentation of the food and restaurant was A+.. it was clean, I'm really disappointed nothin g else was as good. For the quality and price.. go down the street and order from cha baa Thai or even Thai express in the food court for half the price.
All in all, our service wasn't the best.. the food was awful and I experience was terrible. Definitely won't be back. -

If you want to pay more than average for a bland box of just noodles, this is the place. Disgusts me when I get a pad Thai or stirfry and you've gotta chew through mounds of bland noodles just to get to some vegetables or protein. It's their cheapskate way of making maximum profit off your $. If you want great ingredients, and a proportionate meal, avoid this place at all costs. Never going back.

Good food but agonizingly slow. They give you 50 percent off a wok box (any size) Sunday-Wednesday with a yelp check in. However, be prepared to give your first born. Staff are frequently confused with this offer, and ask for an obtuse amount of information. Most of their food comes from shrink wrapped plastic, so I am unsure if this is how it is portioned, or delivered from a distribution center. I asked for additional Kim Chi and it was $1 extra for a tablespoon. I like how they clean and separate the dishes for you when you are done. A busy spot which is usually full, grab a Tiger Beer with your box. Very clean, parking can be a chore, park in ToysRUs.

Absolutely love this place... food is fantastic and it's made in plain site and for a fussy eater like me that's a big plus... allows you to see what they are doing and the everything is on the up and up, if you know what I mean. Love the Beef and Broccoli!
