Wonder Wu

I used to frequent here a couple years ago. However, it seems like something has changed dramatically with the food quality. I took one bite of my General Tso’s and pitched the rest of my delivery order. I don’t plan on ever ordering from here again.

I wish there were the authentic Chinese restaurants that were open in the late 70’s. I live in the neighborhood and decided to try this place. My godson ordered sweet and sour chicken and lo mein. I ordered Kung Pao chicken with veggie fried rice. He was disappointed in the sweet and sour chicken saying it was in a syrupy sauce that was much too sweet. His lo mein was good, but had too much of some seasoning on it. My Kung Pao chicken was just fair. The chicken was slick and rubbery and didn’t have much of a chicken taste. Also, the chicken was cut into some strange looking pieces instead of diced or cubed as I have had from other Chinese restaurants. Veggie fried rice was flavorful.
On another trip, I only ordered fried rice… good. I wanted some Egg Foo Yung, but didn’t see it on the menu and due to a slight language barrier, I didn’t know if they had it or not.
My sisters have food delivered from here all the time and they love it, but I don’t love it as much.

Order there quite often. Delivery is quick and they have good sized portions. Just good take-​out. Nothing more, nothing less.

We’ve ordered from Wonder-​Wu a number of times for delivery. My boyfriend and I both are a fan of the General Tso’s chicken, but the rice almost always tastes burned. The people taking the orders are NOT customer service oriented at all either.
When it comes down to it though — on a night I don’t want to cook — when you don’t want pizza delivery… we’ll still choose Wonder Wu. It’s better than any other delivery place around us.

It’s hard to go wrong with Chinese, but they managed to do it. I wouldn’t have recognized it as General Tao’s Chicken if I hadn’t order it. Didn’t look like any Chinese i had ever seen. My first bite with a toothpick like item was my last. If I hadn’t been back at work with a child to pick up after, I would have returned it with a request for money back. Also know when you pay with cash it’s unreported income for this business — a former bank teller

We used to love this place, but they really blew it. First of all, if you dare, their only good pricing is for lunch and their crab ragoons were amazing. We WERE regular customers until our most recent experience.
What disgusted us was when they got our order wrong, they wanted the wrong order back to resale. Thinking we misheard what the owner said, he confirmed that they would resell it to another customer.
Ewe. Wrong in so many ways
They also won’t deliver for less than $ 15 which won’t include drinks.

After my husband and I moved to the area, we knew we had to peg down a local Chinese restaurant for those late nights when it’s all you crave. Had to deliver, obviously. So, we somehow managed across Wonder Wu. We ordered our typical order — 2 sesame chicken combos and an order of steamed dumplings. Delivery time was fast! We live close by, but I was still surprised. Usually, they say 40 minutes on the phone, but it never takes that long.
The food is good! Always very hot. The sauce is sometimes too thick, but not inedible. I have to say, I am a HUGE fan of the egg rolls. They’re big and chock full of vegetables (mostly cabbage, but whatever). And they’re veggie (no meat), which I can appreciate.
Deliveries always come with more than enough sauce and fortune cookies, like normal. Prices are decent.
Here’s a perk! The food is delivered in very sturdy plastic containers… almost the quality of cheaper tupperware. We always wash them out (dishwasher safe) and keep them around for whatever. They work great!
It is your typical Chinese joint, but it’s not disappointing. The staff is always very friendly in-​person and on the phone (and when they’re at your door).

Eh… call it somewhere between 3.5 and 4.0 stars.
VERY clean dining area and unisex restroom, especially considering that they’ve been in business for years.
My dine-​in meal was served on a hard plastic reusable plate. Self-​serve cheapy plastic utensils and self-​serve napkins. Beverages are in bottles and cans from a cooler (ie, no soda fountain.)
The veggies in my Moo Goo Gai pan were nice and crisp. Mushrooms somehow seemed in between canned and fresh. Maybe frozen? If they were canned, they were not twice-​cooked as happens at other places, but merely added after other veggies were to the point of being cooked.
Pork fried rice was excellent. Egg roll was decent to good.
Counter staff is fluent in English, and very friendly. At the beginning of the dinner rush, there was a steady stream of phone orders for pick up and for delivery.
The menu here is the «standard» Americanized Chinese with the green/​red printed menu, lunch specials, dinner combos, house specialties, and a zillion things that come in those pint or quart cardboard boxes.
I stopped going to the Jumbo Chinese buffet in the same shopping center (it’s next to Marsh) years ago, when their buffet turned to slop. If you want fresh cooked-​to-​order Americanized Chinese, go here to Wonder Wu.

Good. Not the greatest but good.
