    ⚠️⛔️WRONG LOCATION!!⛔️⚠️ This restaurant is NOT located where it’s pinned in google maps. Please go down the street to Go Samui Catering. ( please 👍 this review so no one else gets lost like I did) Btw the food is delicious! I’ve ordered from here several times and the portions are big for the price. It’s great to have an Panda Express tasting Chinese food. This was my first time doing pick-up instead of delivery because Grab drivers always take FOREVER on this island.

    Ordered the combo. Orange chicken was delicious and steamed broccoli was fresh and cooked perfectly (not mushy, not too crunchy) Forgot to take a photo of the actual meal. Cute message on our takeaway box :)

    My friends and I had a really great Wok Star movie party! We absolutely loved the Sesame Prawn Toast, the Duck Spring Rolls, Black Pepper Spare Ribs and the Kung Pao Chicken! It’s my friends turn to host us next week, can’t wait!

    5 stars do not do this place justice. Tried you guys for the first time yesterday via Hangover Samui and my goodness I was not disappointed. Kung Po Chicken, Crispy Beef and Chicken Chow Mein, along with chips and curry sauce, what a treat for the taste buds - every bit as good as my fav Chinese takeaway in the UK - expect regular orders from me! Superb!!!!! Just what Samui has been missing!!!! Thank you so much!

    Food good but delivery time needs improving. Ordered twice whilst staying in Samui, great to be able to order western style Chinese food when you’re hungover but the wait time is too long. We waiting 1hr 30 mins for food and when it arrived we were missing a drink and food wasn’t warm. We stayed 15 mins away from Resturant FYI.

    We have been in Koh Samui for 5 years and this is our first visit to Wokstar Express. It will not be our last. If you want excellent Cantonese style Chinese food, (which is very similar to UK style of Chinese restaurant and takeaway) this definitely worth a visit.

    Been waiting for my food delivery for 2+ hours now and it still shows as "preparing your order"! Can't cancel my order, can't do anything. If you can't deliver, CANCEL the order then! This is ridiculous. Note: Also tried to call the restaurant, their line has been busy for the past hour.

    I was so happy to find such fantastic western Chinese delivery on Samui. All my favourite dishes and a few great new surprise tastes ! Our group will check out the dining room next time. Definitely recommended. Love it !

    Went searching for this today, they CHANGED LOCATION. They are now renting the upstairs at an Irish bar called Tropical Murphy's on the one-way road in Chaweng close to Central Fesitval. Can't comment about the food.

    Quality Chinese food......not easy to find in thailand but this place has nailed it,sweet n sour chicken,beef in black bean sauce and fried rice is my favourite meal set......

  • 2/5 Ilse K. 3 months ago on Google • 3 reviews New
    I had two meals here the first time I had sweet and sour pork and it was good. The second time is what promted me to leave a review. I was completely ignored by the lady behind the counter i had to clear the table myself and its not until I dropped an used empty Coke can that she paid attention to my presence. I ordered a burger and curly fries. The fries are priced at 155 bhat or about $5. What you get for that price is pure daylight robbery! This place is totally overpriced! When I declined the curly fries the second English speaking waitress gave me attitude, so I choked down my burger and left making for a miserable experience eating at this place

  • 3/5 Thomas L. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was really good! However when I got the bill found out the guiness I drank was 310baht which is crazy.

  • 1/5 Jerry H. 1 year ago on Google
    SCAM Restaurant! They can't deliver and keep delaying delivery time. it still shows as "preparing your order" after 2 hours. I can't even cancel my order or call restaurant.

  • 4/5 don O S. 2 years ago on Google
    Big fan , got delivery a few times, normally after a big weekend, proper Chinese like back home, being able to sit and have a few beers in the new location makes it all the better.

  • 5/5 John Gary G. 2 years ago on Google
    Great new location atop Tropical Murphy's in Chewang. The same great special western Chinese niche savouries as the one we enjoyed in Laguna, Phuket. I understand they have one in Nai Harn, Phuket too. I certainly see why they're popular. Try the Szechuan Hot n Sour n Soup and a Wok Combo Box.

    DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS RESTAURANT! TERRIBLE SERVICE WAITED OVER 1 HOUR, CALLED THE RESTAURANT TO SEE WHERE MY FOOD WAS. THEY TOLD ME NOT THERE PROBLEM! Terrible service from a restaurant.

  • 1/5 Mark S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really good food and was highly satisfied except put the real price of the food on the menu instead of letting customers find out that vat/ tax is not included in the price. Are you in restaurant menu's deceiving as well

  • 5/5 SALiSA T. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered Kung Pao pork and Orange chicken - it was great. very tasty ! prices seemed great for value and portion sizes. I mean i had to pack it home!

  • 5/5 Tom L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience today. Tried to order on Grab and it kept saying that there were no drivers available. I called the restaurant directly and the nicest person answered the phone. She took my number, added me on WhatsApp, got my location, took my order and had it delivered right to our door! Bonus was that it was a better price ordering directly. Food was perfect just like the service!! Thank you.

    Had an amazing takeaway from wokstar express Koh Samui, all food was delicious, it was difficult to decide what to have as the menu was great. It was so good we ordered from Wokstar again when we visited Bangok.

  • 1/5 Paul L. 1 year ago on Google
    I placed an order on Grab app at 7.30 and finally got the food at 9pm and chasing many times. The food was nice when we got it, but I won't use either Grab or Wokstar express again, due to their incompetence to meet their customers needs. They both need to look at The service that Panda provides as I have ordered on their app with numerous restaurants and have never had an issue.

  • 5/5 Jamie S. 2 years ago on Google
    I have had Wokstar Express many times in Bangkok and now they have opened up on Koh Samui where i live and the food is the same which i love as food needs to be consistant. The team are great abd always welcoming and love the personal messages on the takeaways. Highly recommended
