Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Ordered 3 people worth of food and got it delivered in less than 15 mins! All of it piping hot and delicious as usual!

Get the black pepper chicken, extra spicy or house angel hair. Those are don't miss! Grab a Pepsi to cool off because when you order extra spicy, they MEAN it!

I'm updating my review to "Yay! I'm a fan" of a new order that I discovered, in part, thanks to Yelp. If you're looking for an order for 2 people (or you love leftovers, or you are a man with twice my appetite) read on. When I reviewed First Wok back in 2009, I believe I was the first and I'm glad to see that many people have given it very favorable reviews. Brad E's review caught my attention so my wife and I took a break from General Tso's chicken and ordered the Sesame Chicken instead ($7.15 w/ fried rice). We also ordered a small vegetable lo mein, which put our total over $10 and -- thanks to a Yelp offer -- meant we received 4 crab rangoon for free! And just like that, we found a new favorite order.

We wanted to try a few things, so we ordered the following: Sweet and sour shrimp (small size) Beef with broccoli with regular fried rice (large size) Black pepper chicken with beef lo mein (large size) Pork egg roll Sweet and sour chicken (small size) (came free with the meal because we spent more than $20 - if you spent $10, $15, $20 or $30 you get a choice between three free things) The sweet and sour shrimp and chicken came with the sauce on the side, so you can add as much or as little as you want. Everything was really good! I was surprised as I'm usually disappointed by at least one thing when trying out a new Chinese place. The prices were very reasonable - we paid a bit less than $30 for all that food tax and all. They have a convenient online ordering system that allows you to really customize your meals and add what you want. They also have delivery in a 7 mile radius for an extra $2. We picked ours up, but it was hot and ready when we got there (in about 15 mins). Will definitely be eating here again!

Fast, cheap, and large portions for those with a big appetite or wanting left overs. I have yet to be disappointed with their food or their service. Yummy every time.

Usually has decent food, it's the best Chinese I've found in the city so far, and we always finish it all (no leftovers) even though they have large portions. We have only ordered delivery, so I can't speak for the actual place, but they are always super fast with the food and all of the delivery men have been incredibly nice (especially since we tend to order in the worst weather). The chicken fried rice is delicious (I didn't really enjoy the house fried rice) and crab Rangoon is not too cream-cheesy. Look for their menu, it has coupons on the front, including one for a free crab Rangoon for any order over $10.

big portions & cheap price: I didn't know much about this place until a co worker told me about it. I also found out that my girlfriend really enjoys this place too. I have had a lot of great meals out of here and I enjoy there crab Rangoon. They also have hot & sour soup that's good. I like the sweet & sour chicken as they give you quite a bit to eat. All in all this is a Chinese carryout place worth checking out. You can dine in also although I noticed that the dining area can sometimes be a little dirty.

My favorite chinese quick food. I eat here atleast once a week. Love the boiled dumplings. They have a variety of specials that are all well priced. Was very happy with the fried catfish I got last week, atleast a pound for five bucks. Got a funny look when I asked for tarter sauce. The people are always kind and happy.

First Wok is fast, cheap, and delivers consistent quality. It's chinese takeout, so don't expect anything fancy, but they do a good job within that parameter.

I'm a biz traveler who sometimes likes to forego the Bloomington "night life" in favor of watching cable in the hotel room. As such, this is my go-to place for Chinese. They have good food and give you a bunch of it for not a ton of money, and the delivery is always fast (maybe I am just used to Chicago). Recommended.
(4)Kristen T.
Love this place. Order from here regularly and it's always good and made fresh. Owners are nice and we order a lot of dishes with special requests and they are always happy to make it however we ask. Highly recommend
(4)Joe R.
The food is nothing to write home about, and the prices are what you'd expect, but if you're craving Chinese, then First Wok is not a bad place to turn to.
(3)Brad E.
I was impressed as I walked into the restaurant, that the kitchen was open, and looked like a Chinese restaurant that you would walk upon in the streets of Downtown Chicago or NYC. The sesame chicken portion was double, what I was expecting. It was near perfection and exceeded my expectations. The fried rice was moist and well-balanced. The price was fair, but could deter folks before they even try the food. The folks of Bloomington are lucky to have this restaurant, too bad I was only passing through.

Food is not good. Nothing seemed freshly made

As far as inexpensive chinese goes this place is great! Generous portion sizes and actually cooked well. I didn't feel totally disgusting after eating it...just a little disgusting! ;) Will definitely be eating here again when the craving hits. (bonus...any order over 10 bucks gets you 4 free rangoons!)
(4)Kira K.
extremely mediocre.
