First Wok — Restaurant in Ligonier

An overall wonderful experience.

After a long day at Idlewild Park, this place came up as a nearby option for dinner. We decided to give it a try (being only 4 minutes from the park)

The outside doesn't leave much to go on, but the inside is very well decorated. It made us feel as though we were transported to another location!

We had a nice sampling of many items on the menu:

crispies. (I don't know what these are called) these little Fried crispy things with a side of duck sauce for dipping were great free table starters. I saved the sauce for my spring roll.

Spring roll - classic; a bit too much wrapper and a bit hard to eat, but the taste was great. It did not come with dipping sauce but I used the sauce from the crispies.

Ginger salad - wow. The ginger dressing tasted very fresh, as if ginger was grated in to the dressing itself. It said it was homemade, and I belive it!! 100% you need to try.

boba teas - flavored drink with tapioca popping bubbles. Kids seemed to enjoy it.

hot green tea - hot tea pot bright to your table along with tiny cups. This is a staple for me for this kind of food. Hot and tasty.

sushi - classic sushi done as expected. No surprises here. We only ordered the avacado roll and California roll... So it's not real sushi... Just "sushi". We did not order and thus not experience any real fish sushi. ...what could we have missed out on...

chicken on a stick - looked amazing. Suace was tasty, chicken was juicy.

green curry - warning! VERY spicy! It was actually too spicy for us to eat, but the ingredients in the bowl looked fresh and appealing.

Singapore noodles - now THIS was a hidden gem! Highly recommend. Taste was amazing. Noodles were skinny and light. Meat was cut tiny. It was easy to eat. Darn my stomach for not being bigger so I could keep eatting. Had to take it home... Doubt it will last a full 24 hours before I devour it.

vegetable pad Thai - fresh plump veggies mixed with pad Thai noodles. Traditional taste done right.

chicken pad Thai - ...why did I order this when I also got vegetable pad Thai? I don't know... But it was good. Had no vegetables, but I only noticed that when sitting next to the vegetable pad Thai. Seemed like the chicken pad Thai was lacking. It was still tasty.

The employees were very attentive to our needs, providing us with constant refills and asking if we needed anything. None of our drinks ran dry. All of our dirty plates were promptly removed.

This next part is for the toilets. Literally. I went to the restroom. Single Person space with a commode and sink. The door locks. Private. Clean.

Overall, this place may be a 30 minute drive for us, but we already committed to coming back soon.

....Need ... more... Singapore... noodles... In......

As I sit on the toilet, it is 3am, I write this review. I'm still pondering what kind of meat I ate last night.... My wife and I went on a date and decided to try something new. We were disappointed to say the least. I ordered the Jungle Curry. It was supposed to have beef and chicken, but had shrimp and what seemed to be masquerading as chicken. The first bite of meat was oddly peculiar, tasting like bleach with an oddly soft texture that was not that of chicken. The meat looked almost to be calamari in my broth. It was white, curly and almost translucent to be honest. The texture was almost that of artificial crab meat, so I began to think of some type of fish. It was definitely not fish. IT was extremely soft, almost mushy. knowing what I was eating definitely was not normal chicken. I researched consistencies of various types of meat to try to figure out what it was. I was almost excited to think it could have been dog or cat. The taste of the broth was delicious so I continued to eat it, not able to come to any obvious conclusion. I am almost positive that what I ate was old chicken that was somehow bleached to be made "fit to eat". I will never in my life eat here again for this reason. Not to mention it was a bit on the pricey side. The sushi was good But not worth the price. I am by no means a professional food critic and I have never left a place a negative review but i feel as if I have been violated. I know for a fact that the meat in that dish was not fit for human consumption… All that being besides the point, the Curry was not very authentic anyways. My wife got the yellow curry and it was red and tasted like pumpkin spice. Terrible if you’re...

It's a 20 minute drive to First Wok for me. I used to frequent Golden Wok in Latrobe and have been told it's the same family. We've placed take out a few times here and it's always been good which kept us coming back, but the last time will absolutely be our last.

When I called to place my takeout order, the man on the phone abruptly cut me off after only placing a fraction of my order to ask for my number and tell me how long it would be til pick up. As I wasn't finished placing my order, I repeated that I had more to add. He was very rude and rushed. Because of this, he misheard my order.

My wife and I drove the 20 minutes to pick up our food and another 20 minutes to bring it home. Upon getting home, I was very disappointed to realize that due to man's rudeness, he made a mistake on our order. When I called back to try and get a refund as this is unacceptable, the people I spoke with had no idea how to handle the situation which resulted in me having to file a chargeback through my bank.

All I wanted was a quick lunch but ended up with a major headache and a very overpriced meal that wasn't even what I had ordered. Needless to say, we won't ever be...
