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.

I was recently craving some Chinese food and due to a severe bout of laziness I did not feel like driving across town to my usual chinese place so I opted to try them since they are right around the corner. I ordered General Tsos Chicken, Shrimp Fried Rice, and Crab Rangoon all of which are my favorite. When I arrived the staff was friendly and the establishment was clean. I would have given them a 5 out of 5 but the the Crab Rangoon was way too salty and the Shrimp Fried Rice lacked the abundance of seasoning that was placed in the Crab Rangoon. Inspite of that I would definitely try them again, I'd give them 8 stars if they delivered!

I'm one to be weary of Chinese food or any Asian cuisine in Indianapolis, given that I loathe Americanized/Pan-Asian/fusion attempts that are often found in the city. However, I took a chance today with First Wok and am glad that I did. After perusing through Yelp and seeing that they have online ordering, I opted to call in my order and used the menu from their website. The man on the other end was pleasant and thorough with my order, and I was surprised that he said it would be done in 5-10 minutes. By the time I got there, my order was ready and I noticed two people were sitting and waiting for their order. The employees were all pleasant and the place was very clean. My order had been sitting on the counter and was ready, as promised. Again, I was very impressed. They have a $5 credit card minimum and accept either Visa or MasterCard. I was eager to come home and indulge in my very hot order. My sweet and sour soup wasn't bad and certainly in the thick corn starch side. I was glad that it had a good amount of bamboo shoot pieces, tofu, and mushroom. Next, my Hunan beef had the standard pork fried rice. A little on the dry side, but that is typical in my fried rice experiences. The Hunan beef had plenty of meat (though, it seemed like pork pieces which I'm fine with), as well as a hefty portion of vegetables (baby corn, water chestnuts, broccoli, mushrooms, green peppers, snow peas, and cabbage). All in all, it was a win and I have plenty left. Looks like I have a reason to like Chinese food in Indy after all, and First Wok is the winner!

I just now deleted a previous one star review because they seem to have improved things. They have remodeled and cleaned the place up. There are new owners, since some time earlier this year. I haven't noticed the stale grease smell recently (I sometimes shop at Big Lots two doors down) so I decided to try them when I needed some hot food fast. Thankfully they are open until 9:30pm. Flooring is new. Walls have been painted. Wainscot (that panelling thing that goes part way up the wall) looks new or recently cleaned. The dining area is not cluttered anymore. They're definitely at least a 3 star place for what it is, a standardized walkup Chinese joint with the standard red and green printed Americanized Chinese menu. I'll try a couple more standard dishes, and see if I can give them four stars. No delivery, but they do have online ordering. Dine in or carry out. TV on wall.

First time ordering takeout from First Wok, and I would definitely recommend it. Ordered General Tso's Chicken combination, with fried rice and an egg roll, with a side of crab rangoon. The chicken was meaty and the spice was suttle but present. The heat kicked in right as I thought I wanted more. The fried tasted a little oily, but it is fried rice after all. The crab rangoons were filled nicely, and were well complimented by the sweet and sour sauce. Aside from the food, the employee who took my order was very nice on the phone, repeated my order to confirm, and even nicer in person. Our old go-to takeout Chinese place has been replaced by First Wok.

This is definitely my go-to take out Chinese restaurant. They have a great selection of classic items and even have a whole section of vegetarian meals! There definitely isn't much to the actual building, it's clearly meant to handle mostly takeout orders. The women behind the counter is also super sweet and she makes sure that orders are done promptly.

Always quick and consistent quality. General Tso is my go to and you can't beat their portion sizes on lunch specials.

I've lived around the area for a year and finally decided to try this place. It seemed really clean inside and that was a plus. I ordered the chicken and eggplant in garlic sauce. I started to eat a few pieces of eggplant and it was delicious! I was pretty excited. I continued to eat and realized that I couldn't find the chicken in the dish. I asked my boyfriend if he saw any chicken in the dish, and he said that the pieces with the white insides are chicken. I told him that that was impossible because it was mushy like eggplant. Basically, their chicken is mushy and there is no way that was chicken. It was pretty disgusting, but tasted good. The second dish we got was curry chicken and it tasted good but the chicken was a little mushy as well. I really don't know what I ate that night...Oh yeah, and my fortune cookie said "next time, order the shrimp." That was creepy, because I was thinking that if I eat here again I'm definitely never ordering "chicken".

I live in the area and have driven past First Wok many times but last night was the first time getting food from here and I was very impressed! I called in my order and it was ready in 10 mins. The crab rangoons were phenomenal, best I have ever had. Also their portions were huge, I will probably get about 3 meals from their entrees.

probably some of the best authentic Chinese food in the city and the owners are always freindly

I've been ordered from here over half a dozen times, and once I took the magnet to get to their website, I was able to order online. Even better! I've done that a couple of times since the last time the lady took my call and hung up after I gave my order, never saying how much, how long, or good bye. Ordering online has worked twice before, until last week. I ordered a couple of dishes for me and a friend. When I went to pick it up, she asked if I was the online order. I was, she starts to ring me out and the price was wrong. She asked what I ordered and only half of the dishes were what I ordered. It was somebody else's order and they had to go and cook mine. Even though I had an email confirming my order, it was like it never existed on their end. I really didn't have 15 minutes to wait, but I was already there. So I patiently waited while they cooked it. While I waited, another man entered and the original order was his. I'm not sure why my order never went anywhere as it was 3pm on a Friday afternoon, so it wasn't busy at all. Finally my order was done and I get the bag. It looks like she's going to hand me a coupon, I assume for the mistake, and instead it's a piece of paper with their new web address for ordering online that will be ready in a month or so. No coupon, no apology, not one acknowledgement that my order was lost. It just irks me when someone drops the ball somewhere and doesn't even verbalize the mistake. I'm not looking for a I'm sorry but an apologize for the slip up would've been nice. I still like a few of their dishes, so that's why I'm putting it at 3 stars, but I don't care for the woman's customer service, or rather lack thereof.

A great Chinese food restaurant within walking distance from my apartment. Offering your standard fast-paced Chinese food menu sprinkled with egg drop soup, sweet and sour chicken, crab ragoon, rices, and everything in between, this nomnom establishment is worth your time and money. It comes recommended. The inside is divey in a very clean way. The employees are great and they deliver flawless product, no matter how busy the restaurant is. The area can get crowded from time to time, but they never seem overwhelmed. They cook a mean sweet and sour chicken, orange chicken, egg rolls, and soups. The wanton and egg drop is by far my favorite. The portions are extremely generous and I would applaud you if you were able to eat your entire meal in one sitting. It's a perfect place for dinner, and then scrumptious leftovers for lunch the following day. The lunch menu is a great deal if you get in there before 3pm, and the dinner combos aren't badly priced either. Dinner combos and a pint of soup will run you around $9, give or take. If you live in the Broad Ripple area, this is one of the best Chinese places! If you're feeling bloated, hop on over to Big Lots to wok off your calories. Funny?

Edible but not as good as multiple nearby carry outs. Won't be back.

Hands down this is the best standard Chinese joint in Indy. At least that I've come across so far. The owners are awesome, and the food is always good. They definitely have the best crab rangoon out there. I'm so happy I don't live next door to it anymore, I think I gained 20 pounds when I did.
