I went there with my family a few days ago.

Very clean ambient, the staff was so friendly and quick to serve...

The food was very, very good, i took some shrimp noodles (excellent!), chicken with orange sauce (a new and strange taste, but good) and obviously some spring rolls. They took to us some lucky biscuits, a very nice idea ;)

The price was on the average, not so much and not so less.

After going to see an exhibition of chinese calligraphy I was in the mood for crispy chilli beef so I met my wife in Bayswater and decided to try somewhere new. My wife wanted to go to the Royal China but it can be pricey and we only wanted a quick bite so we tried the Magic Wok. It won't win any prizes for it's decor but it is extremely friendly. We were welcomed in shown to a nice big table. Drink and food came with a genuine smile. Our starters were good particularly the enormous portion of chilli salt spare ribs. The mains were mixed, the sweet and sour chicken not great but the crispy chilli beef and chinese broccoli were very nice It all tasted fresh, very generous portions and the room was busy. The bill when it came was a bit confusing being handwritten but at £30 a head for the food and a couple of drinks each we weren't dissapointed.

A mention should also go to the kind way they looked after the table next to us of two carers and their handicapped charges. The staff were very attentive and didn't complain at all when their bill needed splitting 4 ways and paid seperatly in cash. A lot of places up in Chinatown would have been awkward about it.

We will definetly pop back again

I have been going to the Magic Wok for nearly 20 years. The food is uniformly delicious and the service is terrific. Albert never fails to greet guests warmly - and once he knows your name, he never forgets it. I have sent family and friends to this restaurant on hundreds of occasions with never a complaint - in fact, raves! The crispy aromatic duck is fabulous, as are the singapore noodles, the chili fried beef, the crispy baby squid, and the hot and sour soup is the best on earth. The pricing is good too - especially for the quality of the food.
