Wok n Fire - Vibe Check: Bougie, Pricey, but Worth a Visit Wok n Fire knows how to set the mood--modern, moody lighting, upscale vibe, and a menu that leans a little bougie (in a good way). It's not where you bring the whole family or go solo with your AirPods--it's a friends-night-out or date-night kind of scene, and it delivers if you're there for the ambiance and aesthetics. I went for the Shrimp Tempura Sushi Roll and honestly? Solid 8/10. Crispy, fresh, and well-rolled--definitely a dependable pick if you're easing into the sushi side of the menu. Now the star of the show? That crème brûlée. It's not always available, so if you see it on the seasonal menu, don't sleep on it. That rich custard under a perfect glassy top layer? Yeah, that's why I keep coming back. Straight-up fire. Service? Mid. Not rude or inattentive, but not exactly chasing a tip either. It's passable for the type of place it is--but the location makes up for it. You're surrounded by shops, walkable spots, and a little post-meal exploring, which definitely rounds out the experience. Final thought: Pricey? Yes. Worth it? For the right dish and the right company--absolutely. If you're looking to level up your night out, this place gets the job done with style.

I used to visit this restaurant frequently when it was located at its previous spot, but recently, I check out the relocated restaurant with a friend. The interior vibe has definitely changed. I definitely miss the larger, more extravagant decorations like the large dragon that took up the whole wall of the old place, the new location still has a comfortable atmosphere, more booths, and brighter vibes. The service was standard. They were efficient but nothing extraordinary. The staff took our orders and delivered our food in a timely manner, which we appreciated. We ordered the Lard Nar, which has remained the same in quality from the previous location. The combination of the sweet sauce and the perfect balance of crispy and soft wide noodles is always a winning combination. It's a dish I've loved since I started coming here, and it brings back nostalgic memories. I'll definitely be returning for more in the future.

Curry noodle bowl was delicious. The broth was my favorite because it was rich and creamy. Each ingredient gave the bowl its appearance and texture.

First time at the new St Charles location we came to celebrate Friday with Happy Hour which is available from 4-6pm Mon-Friday. My go to beverage is the white wine and for food the lettuce wraps. I missed the usual peanut sauce that came with it. Only two servers so I didn't complain about him not asking if I wanted another wine or having to ask for water and getting half a glass, again with no refill. The restaurant is clean, bright and the patio is available if you don't mind a parking lot view. Even as dinner hour approached it wasn't too crowded but more servers showed up so I'm sure service improved for the after work crowd.

This review is only based on their Happy Hour menu. Went to the St. Charles location on a Friday . They also have So. Barrington and Burr Ridge locations. We sat in the bar for Happy Hour (Mon-Fri 3-6) and it was not too crowded at 430pm. They offer wines for 4.00,16oz Sapporo Draft for 3.00..Yes 3.00! As well as a selection of craft cocktails for 8.00. The Happy Hour food menu consists of rolls,lettuce wraps,Tempura Shrimp and a few more items. Prices are super reasonable . We had the Chicken Lettuce Wraps which were very good but would have liked more sauce. I guess we could have asked for a small cup of extra sauce so our mistake. The Yakitori Beef was juicy and tender glazed with a teriyaki sauce. My favorite was the Las Vegas roll..a panko crusted roll with a crab mix,cream cheese and jalapeno topped with a spicy seafood mix and tempura flakes drizzled with spicy mayo and unagi sauce. Fantastic and only 10.00! If you can make it to Happy Hour,give them a try..you will not be disappointed.

Better than I expected. Reviews are subjective, but some of these reviewers are convincing. I ordered the shrimp tempura, miso soup and Szechuan stir fry dish with chicken. The tempura was flavorless and they forgot the dipping sauce. The miso soup was also not the best. The Szechuan dish was the winner of the night. It had just the right amount of spice and flavor to make me forget I disliked the start of my dinner. The portion was good and packaged well for delivery.
