Quick info
About Magic Wok
Magic Wok is a Chinese takeaway in Manchester, found at 1047 Oldham Rd. It opens in the evenings only, so it is a dinner-time option rather than a daytime stop. The week is covered with one exception, as the kitchen is closed on Wednesdays. Anyone planning an evening order from Magic Wok should keep that midweek closure in mind and pick another day, since the rest of the week runs on the same evening schedule.

“I had to leave a review because of the score it has. Being Tuesday not many places are open so we opted for here. I have to say it's the tastest Chinese we've eaten for a while! The food was perfectly cooked and so fresh! It was delivered in just under 1 hour too! 5 stars deserved 👏🏼👏🏼”

“I have been a very regular customer for years and their food has always been on point. However, in the last couple of months their food has taken a massive dive. The dishes have totally changed and what they do make is now horrible, burnt cheap and nasty tasing food. Its really is foul. I threw tonights food in the bin. I'll never oder from here again. Regular, loyal customer gone. Be warned.”
- Tom G
“Ordered here many times, but the quality just gets worse and worse and the prices are too high. The quality of meat is very low and most dishes are mostly filler veg - the shredded beef is mostly just veg with a strange smell. Friendly staff and hot food but unfortunately the overall quality is diabolical.”
