Wok'd Asian Grill in Hurricane focuses on build-your-own Asian fusion food in a fast-casual environment.
"The name Wok'd stems from the name wok which is a metal cook pan with a convex bottom. The idea of this is to allow the customer to pick and choose you own ingredients to have a variety in what you want. Once you pick and choose what you want in your bowl it is then wok'd right in front of you and topped with the sauce of your choice and served to go or dine in. The vision we sought out to bring the Teays valley and Hurricane area is new fast casual asian fusion restaurant for everyone."

I did white rice, fried chicken and General Tso sauce. For a quick service meal, it was decent. If it had just been cooked-to-order, the texture may have been firmer and more satisfying. I still enjoyed the sweet and tangy flavor and the fluffy rice.
As a side, I had the char siu buns - red roasted pork buns marinated in a char siu sauce. Fluffy, toothsome bite with a sweet-ish filling. Chewy bits here and there, though.
Finally, a brown sugar boba tea that was not too sweet. Very milky and a good amount of tapioca balls. A nice complement to the meal.
