Fire Wok

Fire Wok is a small Chinese restaurant on Fayetteville Street in downtown Raleigh. The owner is also the head chef, and he works the kitchen with the rest of the staff, which keeps the standard in one pair of hands.

The pitch is simple enough: fresh, high-quality food and a good meal, without much ceremony around it. You can eat in the dining room or take your food with you, and the restaurant is set up for both. It is a useful address to have if you work or live near Fayetteville Street.
