“ Had a great time here with a large party of people. It was great to see the cooks in the window firing up the grill and slinging food around. The service was fantastic, very kind and attentive. The food was very good. There wasn't one thing we didn't like! We will definitely be back to eat again! My only complaint is it just a tad pricey, but it's great American Chinese food. Definitely recommend! ”
“ I drive four miles and placed order to go. Ready in ten minutes! Get home and food is very warm and ready. Had a great meal of authentic Asian food. Our go to place (hot plate Chinese food ) went out of business. Wu's is now our Go To! ”
“ Amazing. Been going here for 20 years! My favorite chinese restaurant. You have to try ”
“ The customer service was excellent. Shrimp fried rice was great. The chicken lo mein was a little overcooked and had very few pieces of chicken. ”
“ This is solid, Chinese-American food. And the quality is good. You can literally watch through the big window as the chefs prepare your food. I highly recommend the dumplings in hot oil appetizer. The meat here is real. The chicken especially is not that spongey reformed stuff so many restaurants use. Everything is made fresh: it has to be... that big window. They have a full bar service which is good too. The service is great. The waitstaff know how to serve graciously and are always pleasant. And the dining room is pleasant enough with music playing at an appropriate level. This place has several large tables and can accommodate larger groups (though call ahead for reservations for a large group). This place is family-appropriate, though they don't have a specific child's menu. Wu's is located in a strip mall anchored by Safeway right on 99W and there's a traffic light so you can get in from either direction and leave in either direction too. There's plenty of parking. I have, in the past, been joined here by a wheelchair using friend, and we had no trouble at all. The facility presented no serious barriers and the staff were most accommodating. Chinese-American cuisine seems very vegetarian-friendly, but -- while I don't know the specific practices of this restaurant -- I always caution to ask as Oriental cooks often add meat-stocks or fats to seemingly-vegetable-only dishes. Pork or chicken fat do, afterall, and a touch of deliciousness to vegetables. So, if this is important to you, ask. Wu's Open Kitchen is the best Chinese-American restaurant in the Tigard/Sherwood/Newberg area. The food is good and service is always gracious. I recommend it. ”
“ Our favorite Chinese restaurant in Portland Metro Area. Our family has been going there for over 30 years! We love the atmosphere, food, service, and over the years we developed awesome relationship with the owner and staff. Our favorite dishes are crispy duck, five flavors prawns, sesame beef, and many more... Highly recommend! ”
“ Old School with 80s vibe mauve pink decor with lots of restaurant supplies scattered within but it's the food that counts in a 'hood haunt, this one next to Petco in the Safeway lot off 99w. Stopped in on a lunch. Hubby gives it a 5* $11.95 Kung Pao Combo of Shrimp Scallops n Chix. Interestingly no veggie crunch which I like but the Hubs is all about the 'meat' anyway but a first for a KP with no garden game, hmm. Sauce is not too sweet, a good thing and barely spicy enough but we also did not state a preference, though visible fried Chiles, next time! Got some Chile oil this time for extra pow. 3/5 Chicken broccoli tasted very clean, thin light ginger sauce but broccoli missing the time in the wok for true wok hei/fire/char flavor was a tad too crunchy and sauce needed some oyster umami, it was a little singular and too light for me. Added brown rice for a mere $1, and came in slightly larger bowl than the white. It was well worth it. At lunch, Hot Sour was quite good, visible shredded pork & shitakes, I like a bit more tart from vinegar and heat from white pepper. Portion sizes for lunch mains were just enough that we didn't have any leftovers, so if you are used to taking a box, it's less likely here. Black tea on the house is served on entry along with iced water. Waitresses (2) are masked up, prompt and courteous. There's also a full full bar, which was very surprising although no menu that I saw featuring cocktails, maybe in PM hours. Bathrooms are nice and clean, seat covers check ;) a bit cold back there though, once you pass the the myriad of yet more supplies, boxes, and veg prep/green bean trimming at the table. Just a heads up on the experiential difference in dining room experience between hood and uptown dining. Fresh produce well prepared, healthier brown rice, full bar, supporting local, it's a stop to keep in mind when a sit down is on the cards and the Panda box isn't. I'm ordering more umami flavors for sure next round though. ”
