Wokshop By Xi’an

Came by because we were in the neighborhood and needed a quick lunch. Ordered a Mu Shu Chicken $ 10 (which is just a starter), and Mandarin Chicken Salad $ 14.
Unfortunately, our lunch wasn’t so quick — even though we were the only people there. I understand that they probably do a bit of take-​out and delivery, but still — your in-​person customers really should be taken care of.
After waiting for about 25 min, only the salad came out — with a hair in it. So we returned it, and 15 minutes later the mu shu came out, followed out by a salad 10 minutes after that. The manager was really nice and comped our salad, but really, it was the timing that she should have apologized for. Our quick lunch turned into an hour.
The food was good — what you’d expect from a neighborhood chinese joint. I wish the flour wrap for the mu shu was warmer, fresher, and didn’t feel like day old mexican tortillas.
Even though we had a starter and a salad, the bill came to about $ 30 with tax. If you come for a full meal, expect to pay around $ 20 – 25 per person, if not more. Pretty steep for what you’re getting, even for the area. They charge sit-​down restaurant prices for a tiny fast-​casual place, and the food is not exceptional. They should think about lowering the prices or maybe a lunch special of some kind?

Tazan is the best manager ever! I am going back all the time! Suggests amazing food and can gear it too ur diet! Really good for vegan people!

Favorite Chinese of all time because they use superior ingredients.

This Place is a winner! Being a New York transplant I’m always looking for a great Chinese take-​away (they do have few tables to dine in), and I have found it! The staff couldn’t be nicer, the ingredients are fresh and delicious. So happy Wokshop has arrived!

For $ 35 for two people, this place is way overpriced!
$ 17 for orange beef, $ 10 for mu shu chicken and $ 1 for a pint of rice. Um, no. What’s a pint of rice anyway?! Basically, it’s a bowl. If you’re charging $ 17 for beef, the rice should be included!
Looks like a fast food place, but beware of the high pricing!
Service was okay, but nothing to write home about. I just can’t pay $ 35 for food that I can get at Panda Express for half the price! It’s a glorified Panda Express.
Pass!

Loved it! Delicious food, clean flavors, and super convenient. The staff was very engaged.
Recommend:
Orange shrimp
Peel shrimp
Beef with spinach and onion
Singapore noodles
SO glad this place opened! Great quality makes it worth the few extra bucks.

I wish I could give Wokshop 8 stars! I have been looking for a place like this forever! Chinese food that is wholesome and clean– farm to table! All of the food is made to order and you can taste the freshness! There is a refrigerator the has quick meek to go, that maintain their integrity whilst traveling. The manager, Tanzan was extremely kind and helpful without being pushy and obtrusive. He was even so kind to let me try some of the other items on the menu that I was curious about and they were amazingly delicious! I had the Hot Braised Shrimp which was A-​MAZ-​INGGG!!! (I just wish their wasn’t just sugar the sauce) The environment is very clean. The food was so yummy I made plans to return here two more time this week!

Wow. This newly opened farm-​to-​table Chinese is the best Chinese I’ve ever eaten and I eat A LOT of Chinese. The menu is vast, thereby provoking a second trip just days after the first.
First trip:
Hot and Sour soup was fantastic. The broth was delicious, grease free (yea that happens) and very flavorful.
Garlic eggplant. One of my favorite dishes in all the land and here, it was kicked up another notch.
Tender, flavorful and NOT drenched in oil.
The Xi’an Szechuan String Beans were amazing, full of flavor and left with a little crunch. I could eat those all day.
I had several bites of someone else’s beef dish that I can’t remember the name of, but the important note is that it was TENDER and delicious. I usually avoid beef in Chinese food because the quality is somewhere near shoe leather but this was nice.
Even the rice was good. Soft and yummy, not your basic white. Maybe jasmine? And after it soaked up some of the sauce from the eggplant, I made a meal of just that with the leftovers.
Second trip:
Power Zone rice: a yummy blend of fine chopped veggies and egg whites. We did the brown rice but you can have wild and add proteins if you chose.
Orange chicken: light, crispy, orangy heaven with a lil chili paste, spicy heaven.
Manchurian Crispy Cauliflower: what a good idea!!! A bunched of chopped spicy yumminess is served over the cauliflower that gives a nice kick.
