About Golden Wok

Located at 405 E University Ave, Champaign, IL 61820, Golden Wok operates as a thai restaurant serving Champaign in Illinois. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11 am–8:30 pm. It is closed on Sunday.

Food was amazing, and not excessively expensive like some of the other local places trying to charge 22 dollars for a entree. Will definitely return.

I came to Champaign for college in 2014 and stayed in town for 8 years until I moved out to LA. Gwok may not be the fanciest but there is something so comforting about their food. I’d choose Gwok over any Thai restaurant in LA. Whenever I’m in Champaign, I make sure I eat here at least once. My personal recs are combo fried rice, pad Thai, and Hainan chicken. This family-owned business deserves high praise.

I started going to this restaurant in 2011 with a hope just to find okay Thai food as Urbana-Champaign are not big cities like Chicago where you can find authentic Thai food. But I was surprised how great the food was. I ordered Kana Moo Krob (Chinese broccoli with crispy pork belly) and three flavored fried fish. These dishes were so tasty that I went back there soooooo often (for some other dishes too). How often? Probably over 400 times in 6-7 years I was in Champaign. The owners are super nice. Service was quite fast. One of my most favorite restaurants of all time. P.S. These pictures were taken when I went back to Champaign the first time after I graduated. I went there 3 times during a 40-hour visit. Now, you know how much I love that place.

The little restaurant that could. The food is average to good . Depending on the dish. I fond the tables are clean. The condiments were just nasty gross. Like it never seen a cleaning towel. The atmosphere could be better if they would clean the grease film off the walls and clean up the wall art. Overall not bad for take out. Would not dine in again till its a bit more clean and sanitary.

We ordered beef pad thai and shrimp fried rice. The food here is really good, and the guy at the register, who seem like the owner, was really nice and welcoming. It didn’t take that long to get our food.
