Restaurant Review: Golden Wok Worth the Walk

The half-way-down an alley location and the extremely dated decor might make this restaurant seem like a bit of a throwback.  It's a throwback worth going back to.

It's easy to forget its there and I'm not sure what reminded me, but my wife and I enjoyed dinner last night at the Golden Work in downtown Newark.  The Chinese restaurant is half way down the alley between North Park Place and Church Street in Newark. 

The egg rolls were out of this world.  A crispy breading gave way to a host of fresh ingredients inside.  Most Chinese restaurants have long since forgotten how to make egg rolls this good.  No mysterious pink meat here.

The lo mein and sweet and sour pork were delicious as well.  Fresh ingredients repeated here too.

It's worth the walk to the Wok.
