2HOURS for a Chinese… some may consider that reasonable. Actually that’s a lie.. no one would!! We chased twice they made excuses. I asked for a discount they said no.. we’ll give you extra prawn crackers! They didn’t arrive! No Diet Coke Coke.. nothing!

Chicken green peppers dish tasted of fish, have ordered many times in past and was lovely, when called to complain was told that was 'impossible' as they didn't serve any fish dishes and kitchen doesnt stock fish sauce, they do however have an entire category of seafood. Was told it was the black beans flavour...it was not, very poor customer service. Will not ordering again.

Takeaway. Hubby food. Ribs mediocre - prawn balls - very doughy/undercooked (felt sick after a fee so ended up in the bin. rice okay but who cant make rice. Stir fry veg - no peppers , bland mix and too much sauce so a soggy mess. Waste of money.

Charged delivery even though less than a mile away and spent over £90. No complimentary drink or prawn crackers after making large order. I mistakenly ordered wrong dish online. Zero understanding or empathy and was told to re-order (no problem) and pay delivery again which shouldn’t have been charged in the first place or come and collect it cash only. Fried rices were bland apart from my chicken fried rice no egg which seemed to have decent flavour and colour. Food was mediocre and service was very bad. Although delivery was quick. I hope it was just a busy stressful night and they learn to cope better. Unhappy customer.

Cash Only unless you order online! Although must be the best Chinese takeaway in Watford! Have tried from Abbots Langley, Watford and Bushey and most don't even compare. Constructive criticism would be if they could add spring onions to their fried rice but that's personal preference.

We’ve not ordered a Chinese takeaway for a while but when we do we always order from Wok Express and they didn’t disappoint us. We ordered online which was quick and easy and the food was delivered well before the estimated delivery time. The portions were a generous size, the Prawn Crackers were fresh, all of the dishes were piping hot and absolutely delicious. We would most definitely recommend Wok Express.

We have been ordering food from Wok Express for a long time. Tonight we ordered a meal and everything was perfect apart from the Crispy Chilli Beef dish, which was so tough from the batter to the chilli beef that it was inedible at a cost of £7.20. I phoned Wok Express and I spoke to the rudest, unpleasant and unhelpful manager that I have ever encountered. I expressed to her that our meal was perfect apart from this dish and I would like the price of this dish refunded because of the poor quality. She was so rude to me and really upset me. She said that there was nothing wrong with their dish and nobody else had complained and that she did not believe me. To summarise, I praised their food, which was good but complained only of the dish, which was not. To be treated like that after being a loyal customer, I will take my business elsewhere. The manager is a very rude nasty person. AVOID.

Expensive food (empty wontons for £3.20?!) which I’d say is over priced. We found a piece of the green side of a washing up sponge in the noodles. Egg fried rice tasted like it was made with really old oil. Sweet and sour was a little bland, certainly not enough sour. Not worth it as there are better much Chinese places around for less. Delivery was a bit earlier than the app said which was nice.

This Wok Express is on Watford Rd, SUDBURY and replaced Mr Chan's chinese takeaway (which was good but started going downhill). I decided to try the takeaway with just an egg fried rice. It was very tasty..so we then decided to try an order for the family. The sauce in the pad thai was a little too sweet for us but the other dishes were delicious and did not have the usual grease and oil of our previous chinese takeaway. The chicken in both the rice and chow mein was well cooked and not rubbery at all. The mixed veg side dish was crunchy and tasty..we will definitely choose that dish again. The Kung Pao was able to be reduced from medium spice to mild but was still delicious. The prawn crackers were yum but I felt the bread used for the prawn toast was a little too thick. The food is of very good quality and cooked well. In the past month, we have samples Wok's food 4 times. The service is friendly both in the take away itself and over the phone. I am so glad we have a great takeaway nearby. I hope they are here to stay.

I ordered from Wok Express today, was generally good, however, some of the food was not very tasty. I ordered the vegetable chow mein, I needed to add more soya sauce to it as it needed seasoning. I also ordered the beef with ginger and spring onion. The sauce tasted really nice, however, the beef was very chewy. The chicken dumplings were good, but needed more side sauce. The portions on the other hand are very good. Very filling and more than enough. The delivery was super fast and on time.

I’ve used Wok Express a number of times in the past, it’s a little more expensive than other Chinese takeaways but was always previously worth it. Not anymore! Not only was the food like warm, the batter on the prawn salt and pepper was chewy and inedible and the Singapore noodles tasted odd, like an after taste of washing chemical. To make things worse, I called to give them feedback which I thought they’d appreciate, however the female manager was rude, dismissive and abrupt - like she couldn’t care less. NEVER AGAIN Wok Express - avoid avoid avoid

We don't use this place often even though it is close. I've been reminded why. Picked up order and found it was wrong when we got home despite them checking it.
