Wok On Fire

Wok On Fire is a wok-focused Indo-Chinese and Asian restaurant under the Parle Point flyover in Surat, Gujarat, close to the Surat Marriott Hotel and the Athwa Lines area. Parle Point is one of the city's best-known junctions, surrounded by malls, hotels and a dense cluster of eateries, and the restaurant draws on that steady footfall of families, office workers and students. The cuisine is built around the wok: noodles, fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, manchurian, chilli paneer and soups in the Indo-Chinese style that Indian restaurants have made their own, with some broader Asian dishes such as Thai-style curries and Burmese-style khow suey commonly found on menus of this type. The signature items are wok-style noodles and fried rice, cooked to order over high heat so that the dishes carry a smoky wok flavour. Vegetarian choices are extensive and Jain variations are often available on request, with non-vegetarian options available on the menu. The dining room is a casual, air-conditioned restaurant with an energetic and slightly noisy mood when the woks are firing, quick service and a mixed crowd that is busiest on weekend evenings. There is no dress code beyond neat casual wear. Alcohol is not part of the offer as Gujarat is a dry state; mocktails, shakes, juices, soft drinks and tea are the usual beverages. Prices run roughly INR 300-600 per person, mid-range for Surat. It is a walk-in venue and reservations are not normally needed, though groups on weekend evenings may wish to call ahead. Hours are generally lunch and dinner daily, so confirm on arrival. The location under the flyover is easily reached by auto-rickshaw or ride-hailing from the railway station and city centre, and it pairs well with a walk to nearby malls and cafes in the Athwa area.
