"Wokcano has a special place in our hearts, because when we were married 100 million years ago, we had our rehearsal at Pasadena. They were very nice to us, they offered vegetarian options that were not on the menu, and we loved it. It's been over for a long time and we were excited to see that there was a location here in Santa Clarita Valley where we moved recently. The menu is similar to what we remember, but there are more vegetarian options available to order that excites us because we are vegetarians. Everything we ordered was delicious! (except the Dragon's Breath Cocktail. My wife and I shared the Orange Crispy Tofu, the Vegan Kung Pao Chicken and the fried rice. It was a little strange to order fried rice as they have a few variations on the menu that we want only the basic ones, and we had to convince the waitress that it actually existed by showing it to her on the menu. But it was quickly cleaned up and we got what we ordered. The orange crispy tofu was delicious and easily remembered the dish with chicken when we ate the meat. The Vegan Kung Pao Chicken was really delicious, with the cave that the soy chicken was actually a little undercooked? This was surprising as in non-vegetarian restaurants you notice that the faux-meat options are often overcooked. This dish would have been absolutely perfect if the artificial chicken was cooked a little longer. The basic fried rice was also really delicious and we do not have the need to have ordered one of the other variations from it to get a really nice tasting rice dish. Portions were also generous, so the next day we take a lot home and eat. The Dragon's Breath Cocktail was disappointing. It was not very well mixed and the only taste I really came out was the alcohol that is not really what I want when I spend a lot of money on a cocktail. That was said, these vegetarian dishes were delicious and we would definitely come back to have them again and try other things. There is a full sushi bar and many other fine drinks to taste. Nice job Wokcano!"
