America B. noted, "Staff is super sweet. I couldn't decide between the wings and the leg thigh combo. They gave me a complimentary chicken leg with my wing order. Both were absolutely amazing, but you can't beat the flavor or crunch."

Customers order their food through a five-step process posted on the wall of the restaurant.

The menu also offers a salad.
Woko Loco currently holds four stars out of 30 reviews on Yelp, indicating good reviews.
Yelper Erica M., who reviewed Woko Loco on Feb. 1, wrote, "I got a junior bowl with rice, veggies, tofu and loco sauce. It's absolutely delicious, but that's not what really sold me on this place. I placed a to-go order, but then my baby fell asleep in the car. They brought my order out to me in the parking lot so that I didn't have to wake my baby. I will be a loyal customer from here on out."
Abby R. noted, "Fresh, fast and delicious. Had the zoodles with shrimp and vegetables. The vegetables are fresh and crunchy [and the] sauces are not overly salty. This was a nice lunch spot with good food."

Dawn H. noted, "You can get their great pancakes and famous queso, but with dishes like Moroccan beef and braised short ribs on the menu it can easily be described as upscale casual. Don't pass up on that bacon-wrapped meatloaf, either."
