Good food and service only made better if they offered delivery.

Great service. However I ordered a green curry-it had one small green pea in it and it consisted of cabbage and onion in a brown slop. I also had a soup that was scorching hot and tasteless. I'm a person who always goes straight to sleep, but after this meal I was wide awake for 3 hours and had strange dreams all night afterwards. The kids also left a lot of their food and we threw a lot away. After being a good customer and one that's always been happy with Hot Wok I was very very disappointed. :-(

Slow if you wait..... been sat waiting for chicken fried rice for 40+ minutes when you said 10 15 minutes. Poor

This is our local Chinese takeaway and we have eaten from here for a number of years and been incredibly impressed by the food quality. The service has always been great and the food delicious, but I’m afraid the last few times we have been the food has been of poor quality, the chicken has been questionable and the MSG content has been really high. Very disappointing since it was such a wonderful Chinese Take Away before. It’s a shame, and I can only assume that maybe it has changed hands

We had come away for the weekend and arrived late on the Friday night. The hot wok was one of the few places open. We got a friendly welcome and they sorted our takeaway for us very quickly. Comfy little waiting area to sit in. We weren't from the area but it seemed regulars were coming in to pick up there orders. Definitely worth a visit for a takeaway fix.

We come from Caversham to have takeaways from here because it is the best cooked and tastiest Chinese food locally. Always friendly on the phone too.

Staff were friendly and really happy to swap sauces, mostly tasty, hot and good portions but let down by really doughy undercooked batter around chicken balls. Shame as the rest was really good.

I love Chinese food so when i moved to the area i tried this place in 2015 - it was terrible. So in 2017 i gave it another go hoping management had changed and i was sadly disappointed. Then went again in 2021 and what an awful experience. Food took about 35 mins and was not great. Have yet to find anywhere in the area that does good Chinese. Gave it 2 stars because the lady was friendly.

I ordered from Hot Wok for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and have since been fixated on eating from there again! My son's family have been coming to Sonning Common from Henley just for "the best Chinese takeaway" and I'd totally agree, having tried it. In fact I am about to order dinner tonight! 😋😋

Another vote for the salt and pepper squid from this place. Delicious! Their dishes are tasty and generous with no skimping on prawns or meat. Has improved over the last couple of years to become my favourite chinese takeaway.

This is our local takeaway and I rate it quite highly. The food is piping hot, fresh and tastes nice. It can get very busy so get your order in, in time. One thing I have noticed, I have eaten Chinese takeaways from other outlets and woken up at night and had to drink lots of water. Not from here though, they obviously don't put masses of salt in.

We have long been customers of Hot Wok, 23a Wood Lane, Sonning Common, and Its precursor Yeungs. We have not normally had any concerns, but twice recently we have found meat in our food. (We are vegetarian, and always clarify this when ordering from restaurants and takeaways.) On the first occasion (maybe a few months back) I returned with a sample and the assistant agreed that the fragment appeared to be chicken. We had a polite discussion about the possible causes, and thought no more about it till a couple of weeks ago. On this later occasion, we again found a fragment of what appears to be meat in the takeaway food. I have retained a sample. If one was a carnivore this might seem trivial, but if for whatever reason a person does not eat meat then this is a serious matter. Next time glass or a cockroach maybe? Yeungs was better.

Main dishes were very good, sweet and sour pork and Kung Poa chicken. The rice, egg fried rice, noodles, chow mein, were not exceptional but good enough with the main food dishes. Service was friendly as fast on a busy Friday night.

Large portions but quality of beef very poor. crispy beef way too tough to chew, same as another beef dish. Padded out with the cheaper ingredients. I won't be going back, Yeungs was much better food.

Came in for a £6 skittles bomb it didn't even have much alcohol in it with it being triple sec 20 % and redball I'm sure it's normally Cointreau 40% and red bull. We couldn't even taste the alcohol so we left 😂
