Chinese restaurant
The dream was a contemporary yet casual restaurant offering authentic,
upscale Asian cuisine. Today, City Wok is proud to be recognized by
Restaurant Hospitality magazine as personifying the future of
fast-casual dining.
Stuart Davis opened his first City Wok in 1990, working extensively with
Hing Fan Chan, an executive chef trained in Kowloon, China. While other
restaurants may water down, Americanize or over-expand their menus to
appeal to the masses, Davis created the City Wok concept from his desire
to deliver authentic Chinese dishes in a style that appeals to
Americans.
It's time to give yourself permission to build your days around what's important to you! You're in Control!
