New Owners June 2018!
I've been following the Woo family's restaurants for many years. It all stared with Lin's Garden in the "old neighborhood" (Chicago's NW side Devon/Milwaukee). They moved to an outpost in Elk Grove under the name "Peking Express" several years ago but closed for some time. Now they are back at Sizzling Wok and it's better than ever.
I can't honestly review everything because I'm absolutely HOOKED on the Mongolian Beef. I usually order it medium-spicy but if you are faint of heart, order it without. It's amazingly flavorful either way and a must if you love onions (white and green), as I do.
Before I go any further, let's address the egg roll situation: they are out of this world. Have you ever had the kind of egg rolls with a hint of peanut butter in them? These are to die for. I moved out of state for a few years and craved these the most. I can’t eat any other egg rolls - these are simply the best. They also have 5 Star Rangoon's.
Want actual chicken in your chicken fried rice? You'll get it here. An order of chicken fried rice is a meal in itself (probably for two days and a late night snack or two). Easy on the egg, just enough spices and enough chicken makes the fried rice a must.
Atmosphere: there are some tables to sit and eat at but it's mostly takeout. Don't Let that fool you, this is the absolute best of the best. I've gotten to know this family over the years and they are great people. They take great care and pride in their food and they don't disappoint. I'm so glad they are back!
I hope to someday try out some more dishes so I can speak for the rest of the menu!
Great food! The owners are amazing! This is the only place I come to for Chinese food.
Great first-time delivery experience. Everything was fresh and hot for all of us! Delicious crab rangoon and the sesame chicken might be my new favorite!
Orange chicken is da bomb
Best Chinese place in town.
This was delicious and great service, definitely a keeper. Never really heard of this place but it had good reviews so we decided to order delivery service. It was fantastic, easy to order online, right on time. It was great. We ordered their shrimp pad Thai (which was my favorite), mognolian beef and shrimp fried rice. Good quantities and definitely flavorful. We loved it.
I’ve been coming here for years and I’m obsessed with their chicken fried rice. I’ve gotten lots of delicious meals here but the fried rice is my favorite and a large portion is huge it serves like 3-4 people
Not sure when owners changed but this become our go to fast food chinese food. Ordered chop suey, chicken chow mein (same as chop suey but with noodles, bf FR, and jalapeno fried shrimp. Everything was perfect. Will be back
Great food, absolutely good egg rolls! Generous portions!
First time getting food from here and I was very pleased. The egg foo young was delicious we also got the happy family and it was also very good the only minor complaint I have is with the Mongolian beef there was a lot of onions. But the beef was very tender and delicious. I will definitely be going back.
