A wonderful quaint place to enjoy great food, the only down side is the fact that there was no aircon ! The food was good value for money and really delicious
The Beach Garden Salad is life changing. The service is genuine and put me at ease. A brilliant evening. Thank you The Wok Box I will be back again
Another Durban gem. They have an amazing daily specials list, try their seared tuna on crispy spinach leaves or their wok fried prawns with sweet basil and chili. Intense flavors and great portions size.
Consistent, The Wok Box is a must for many occasions. Their seared tuna on crispy spinach is my go-to dish, and their wine list offers a good selection. Service sometimes slow, every meal had here has still be a winner!
Every item I've tried on the menu has been perfection! I'm a huge fan of the angry chicken and the calamari starter. The staff are also really friendly and accommodating. On request, they have been willing to swap out certain ingredients if need be. Can't wait to be back.
Food is delicious. Decor is plain and it’s very casual. Spicy Peanut Chicken is a winner as well as the Crispy Orange Pork. Service is great.
All their dishes are just delicious! Tom yum soup is my fav, also tried the crispy pork with orange which was amazing! Never been disappointed at the wok box
Love wokbox! Had the massaman curry with the noodles and it was delicious. The veg spring rolls were delicious! Will definitely return soon and try something else!
The Wok Box serves my favorite food. All the different flavors and the quality of the ingredients are always superb. I generally stick to the same meal each time but everything I've tasted has been good.
Food is good, but not very authentic...too much fusion and confusion going on. The steamed fish and the "yakitori" bar is interesting. The waterfall salad is unhealthy but amazing.
Went for lunch with a friend, and I had the best 1st Thai food experience. Sbo, our waiter was sweet, funny, and informative. After startes of prawn and chicken spring rolls, I opted for the charcoal BBQ and friend rice. Absolutely delicious! Will definitely be back.
The food was spectacular. We had a bunch of starter size meals and a prawn noodle dish and a seared tuna salad.
The chicken satay sauce was the best in Durban. The fried wontons were filled with chicken and the dipping sauce was great. We had, what I would describe as, a Vietnamese spring roll with prawn which was super fresh and crispy. The prawn noodle had all sorts of veggies in and the noodles and prawns were cooked perfectly. I had the seared tuna salad and it was served with crispy fried spinach, a slaw mix and lightly seared tuna.
We went on a Saturday lunch and it was relaxed with super friendly and professional service. We will definitely be back! Well done to the Wok Box Team.
I found the food to be absolutely delicious. The quality surpassed my expectations, offering a delightful experience that feels like a great value for the price paid. Highly recommended for those who appreciate top-notch cuisine without breaking the bank!"
We were so saddened when Street Wok 1 in Mount Edgecombe closed down for sit downs, so it was amazing to find their sister restaurant so close by! All our SW1 favourites in a classy and cosy little spot in Durban North. The waiters were a little overwhelmed, there were many tables and takeaways, but only two waiters on duty payday weekend at lunch which made the service a little slower than we'd like, but this isn't the norm.
Amazing food, great vibe, convenient location!
Try the Peking BBQ chicken with Hoisin and Pancakes or the Crispy Pork Belly with Hoisin and Asian pickle. You will not be disappointed.
Cashew and chili chicken was a winner. Loved the fact that the chilies were on top of the dish and could be skipped if you prefer less heat. Pad thai is an old favourite and consistently done well. Found the Waterfall Salad a bit on the sweet side. Generous starter portion of Salt and Pepper Calamari which was super tender.
Tempted to give 4 stars because of the polystyrene containers, plastic straws and single use chopsticks but the food and service was too good for that. Huge portion of egg fried rice with fresh crunchy vegetables. The vegetable soup was fresh and really hit the spot.
Not a huge selection of alcohol but still good choices. They have Jack Black and CBC on tap as well as Castle and Black Label.
Seating is comfortable and spacious but there weren't any visible wheelchair access points which was a little disappointing.
Menu is also a placemat which was pretty cool and also a little wasteful. Lots of carnivorous options but the vegetarian choices, although fewer, were sufficient.
All in all, great value for money. Worth a visit.
The food was great, flavourful and tasty.
Good location, ample parking.
Fits the name, neat, decent seating.
Good waiting service.
Small menu, easy to choose options.
Food arrives steaming.
Veggie ingredients are super fresh.
Chicken angry curry - phenomenal.
Beef thai fried noodle - remarkable.
Overall great experience, well priced.
Worth my drive from Umhlanga.
I come for the crispy pork with hoisin sauce that's always a winner. They also have a side dish, Crispy spinach that's oddly good as well.
The Wok Box is a quaint Thai restaurant situated in the hub of Durban North. Their crispy spinach is out of this world 😍
