Unlike other cheap versions that use fillers like peas and cheap ham or luncheon meat, this fried rice is filled with prawns, char siu pork, and other high-quality meats. The rice has a nice smoky flavor, thanks to the high temperature of the wok, which is referred to as "The dragon's breath." The staff is always friendly and accommodating, often throwing in free fortune cookies for my children (I have 5 kids). I'm a new local to Glebe and used to travel 40 minutes out west for genuine fried rice, but now I don't have to because Wok Express is as close as you can get to the real deal. The kids menu is affordable at $6 with decent portions and comes with chips. Despite being a bit further out from the main part of Glebe, it's worth the trip. I highly recommend checking them out for yourself. This is not a paid review, just a genuine foodie who loves great food and honest reviews. Don't let negative reviews deter you, give Wok Express a try.

I have ordered from this restaurant about 10 times and have always enjoyed the good food and quick service every time! I especially love the honey chicken. read more I have ordered from this restaurant about 10 times and have always enjoyed the good food and quick service every time!

I have dined here many times over the past two weeks and each visit has been consistently satisfying. The portions are generous and delicious, making every calorie worth it. This was the ideal spot for our last meal, and we all enjoyed a wonderful time.

This small Chinese takeout place may not be visually appealing, but the savory, rich broth and wonton soup make up for it. It may not be the best Chinese takeout I've had, but its location on Glebe Point is convenient. The menu is extensive so you can order a variety of dishes. However, with only two people working in the kitchen, service may be slow. One suggestion would be to have the tables wiped down, as my elbows were sticking to the table as I enjoyed my soup.
