Wok-Inn Noodle 4912 West Emerald Street, Boise, ID 83706

"Absolutely wonderful man that runs the whole show. PLEASE COME SUPPORT! He absolutely deserves the recognition. I ordered lunch to go and tipped $40 and genuinely had to BEG him to take the tip. Please please support here!"

"Great food, great price, great vibes. The smell can be a bit off putting but it's not that bad when you get used to it, and the food is worth it. The owner does everything by himself which can make service slow but he's also very kind and the food is delicious. Salt and pepper tofu, house noodles, and ma po tofu were incredible. Fried rice was also pretty good but not the best."

"One man, one wok, one KING. Wok-Inn Noodle is everything I’ve looked for in a restaurant in Boise for YEARS. I spent my younger years in Singapore eating the freshest, most delicious Asian cuisine and I had yet to find anything in the area that was close to comparing until today. I want to start with the owner and sole wok-master, Chan (or as some know him by, Chef Jimmy). This man is so genuine and kind! I placed an order for take-out and arrived a little too early. He didn’t seem annoyed at all. He thanked me several times. I had no problem waiting, knowing it’d be worth it. My order included 2 egg rolls, house noodles (house made noodles, chicken, beef, shrimp, and mixed veggies), house fried rice (chicken, BBQ pork, shrimp, egg, green onion) and BBQ pork and seeds with hot mustard - $32.78. It took everything in me to not dig in immediately - had to grab some pics first. Everything was phenomenal. The fried rice was authentic, perfectly seasoned and completely cooked through. I found it paired so well with the spicy chili sauce served with the egg rolls. Them egg rolls, WOW. Generously packed with goods, heavenly crunchy and surprisingly not greasy at all. The pork and seeds were a great addition. The small comes with about ten good-sized pieces of char siu. The house noodles were everything I hoped for. Piping hot, mildly flavorful, loaded with the freshest veggies, meat cooked to perfection and incredible, mouthwatering noodles that are reminiscent of my days in SG. I cannot recommend this dish, and this restaurant, enough. I will be returning again and again as long as it’s open. I’m so excited to try the rest of the menu! NOTE: THIS IS A TRUE HOLE-IN-A-WALL. You come here for the food and the man who runs the restaurant. If you feel like whining about the dated decor, don’t. Trust me, no one cares. Wok-Inn Noodle is so much more than that. Also, everything is FRESH made when you order so expect a wait. Your patience will be rewarded. I just read a review from 8 years ago that mentioned the seventy-six year old owner…so you’re tellin’ me he’s now EIGHTY-FOUR and still slinging house-made noodles and dishes all by himself?! I’ll end my review the way I began. WHAT A KING!"

"Just went here for the first time. Let me say that Chan (the owner / chef) is so nice and sweet. The place is adorable. The food is delicious. Absolutely some of the best ma po tofu I’ve ever had, and the house noodles are also amazing. I will be frequenting this place."

"The Moto is have patience since it’s one man one wok. I find the place charming, very polite and where customers are very familiar with the owner and with each other. I’m the guest and visitor who finds this very interesting. It actually made me slow down to enjoy the calming soothing music playing in the background and wanting to enjoy eating my food which was good. 1 egg roll was not enough for my hungry appetite and I found the pad Thai needing more spice and portion. I wish he can get some help so I can order some more food Togo. If you are not in a hurry and have good company to converse for a while then this is the place to go. Hot tea was automatically delivered with menu."
