The Cleveland Wok is situated on a pretty little block of Highland Park, in Southwest Saint Paul. The entire Highland Park neighborhood is quaint and cute, so to find a great Chinese Buffett in the middle of it is like finding a precious jewel in a treasure box. I don't know what there is to eat on the actual Cleveland Wok menu - and here is why: Who actually goes there for the menu items? If you visit Cleveland Wok anytime from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, all you will see is people lining up out the door, even mid-winter, for their amazing Buffett lunch. The lunch is all you can eat, and the variety of delicious food they offer is amazing. You can get over thirty different dishes, all for just $5.99!!! Some of my favorites include their Crab Rangoon, the Spicy Pork, Happy Family and Sesame Chicken. All the dishes are well prepared, and use quality ingredients. Though the atmosphere can be a little cramped, just waiting for a small table there makes you feel in the know. Like you and a few select others know something wonderful about this little Asian jewel, that the rest of the city has yet to find out. Next time you're hungry for authentic Chinese food, at a great price, try Cleveland Wok.

This place is very small, but it has a great reputation, so at times people need to wait for a seat. It's worth the wait, the food is wonderful. There's a dinner buffet for $7.50, and there are appetizers (egg rolls, chicken wings, wontons) along with about 10 or so different main dishes, including chicken/black bean sauce, lemon pepper shrimp, beef and potato, others. The buffet is very popular, and the staff is always bringing more hot food to the buffet table. There is also a lunchtime buffet, a little less money, probably more chicken dishes than in the evening. If you want to order from the menu, again, the food is excellent--the chicken & pea pods is great. Service is fast, and the staff and owner are very friendly, spotting return customers and stopping for a brief conversation. If you like Chinese food, this is a great spot--you will consistently get the food you like prepared as you like it, at a good price.

The Cleveland Wok has a great lunch and dinner buffet. It is a somewhat small place, so the buffet isn’t that big, but each dish is good. While, everything is pretty greasy, it is also very fresh and delicious. I would recommend the Cleveland Wok for your next lunch out.
