I was persuaded by a good friend to try out this new noodle bar (or newdle bar, if you will) on Bold Street and was far from disappointed. They're selections are a little basic - there are really only a handful of box meal options and about the same number of side orders available. This seems to be the strength of the place - focusing on preparing a few key dishes to a decent standard. On this visit I went for the 'Sweet Box' while my friend opted for the 'Hot Box'. Mine was nice but, as is so often the way, I really wish I had gone with what my friend got; spiced, tangy sauce tender pork and chicken and crisp stir-fry vegetables - delicious. I guess the pak choi is always greener on the other side. If there is a downside it's that even for good quality fast food it is a little pricey, at almost £6 for a large box - although really this no more than you would pay for an 'ultimate' wrap at Barburrito. All that aside, the service was fast -if a little brusque - and the food was hot and tasty. And if you sit in the window you get a perfect view of people spending their money at Subway when they should have just tried here instead. read more

Wok & Go - Indonesian Near Me - Liverpool, XMS

I do like Wok and Go but I'm afraid it doesn't live up to my favourite noodle bar in Liverpool - go on take a guess which one? Well if you don't know I'm sure you'll figure it out by my gushing review. Now this place does the cute little cardboard boxes and chopsticks, like an American TV show - personally I think this is the main appeal! It is becoming very popular, possibly a new fast food phenomenon. My favourite set box is the hot-box, but if I'm honest I always make my own because I have to pick out the shrimps which seem to dominate every box they serve. Plus making your own is fun. The food is fresh - it just doesn't have the same sparkle as Wok It. read more

Wok & Go - Indonesian Near Me - Liverpool, XMS

Want to give a review on this as the staff pretty much knew my face as I would eat there around 4 times per week. This was the very first wok & go I had eaten at. I'm not being funny. But it's the best food in Liverpool by 100 miles. Ask them to put the toasted peanuts on top. Go for the large sweet box meal. You get the large box of noodles, 2 spring rolls sweet chilli sauce, and a drink. If you are on a stag or a hen doo then this is the FastFood you need. Bold street where it is situated is pretty much the party area of town. So food, dancing, and drinking can all be done:) Open one in Glasgow please as I just moved away from Liverpool:( read more

Wok and Go is one of two identical new eat-in/takeaway bars in the city centre. The Bold Street branch being the first one to open has become quite a popular place recently just by observation when I have passed by several times. Since I do like things which are popular and busy, I decided one day to try one of their oriental dishes - the Pad Thai box. On their menu, this dish caught my eye with its description which sounded interesting and a classic Thai meal I hadn't had before but I'd heard of many times on TV. However, the description did not exactly match and for the meal being the 'real deal', well I would have to visit Thailand. There were no crushed roasted peanuts included which is what it said on the menu. To omit such a vital ingredient is not a disaster but a slight disappointment. More of the positive is that the food was definitely fresh and hot. Everything about the bar was great and you could tell it was clean and well maintained. Prices are a little high but service was efficient on my first visit. read more

Noodles are big business it would appear. If facing financial difficulties in light of a recession it seems opening a noodle bar is the way forward as Liverpool seems to be inundated with them. Now that I have been to Wok & Go it's obvious why this is. Asian food is always popular but is often unhealthy - more than two days a week of your average Chinese and Indian dishes sorts the men from the boy's waistlines! Also noodles are far more versatile than rice - for rice merely wastes space on my plate. Wok & Go have a very limited menu I have to say so far - but they are new to Bold St with plans to open til late and a new delivery service shows that they are growing so hopefully will their range - but what they do have is delicious and healthy. Be warned, the portions are much smaller than your average chinese at around £4.60 for the reg and £5.50 for the large but then can you put a price on healthy eating that tastes this good. Oh, yes, I just said £4.60. read more

Food tasted great. I ordered a thai red curry box with noodles and chicken. The meal was a regular but got upgraded to large as it's the offer on Sunday, I had to reset this though so if you're looking any of the deals make sure you mention whilst ordering. I only managed to eat half of my meal as the portions were huge! Food all in came to £8.00 which is great for the taste and volume of food. read more

Bah Humbug. Wok & Go I am going to have to boycott you from now on. Although the food is the same hot and spicy quality (damn that sea food box!), I'm afraid one star has to be removed out of principle. You have disappointed me. Reasons are as follows: Unless there was a major mix up...the smallest boxes which used to contain the spring rolls are now the small noodle boxes and the old small noodle boxes now serve as the large. Shame on you, Scrooges. We want more noodles! That is all. read more

Wok and stay!! As far as I'm aware Wok is a pot in which you cook quick fire dishes, like....noodles. This place thus is a fast food noodle joint. That's what it is!!!!!!!! It is a fast food joint folks....so if you're expecting diversity you simply haven't got the point. You know what let me dispel a myth, yes a MYTH.... which was brought to my attention by one of the reviews of this place. (Prepare yourself for a tiny rant 321 go!!) The ideology that Asian food is unhealthy is delusional beyond belief and downright ignorant and laughable. First of all "Asia" folks in case you are intelligently challenged is the biggest continent in the world with nearly half of the world's population. How on earth you can box the complexity of 4billion people's eating habits into one box is beyond me!!!! "Asian food"!!!!!!!!!! Really...???? I suppose they are all the same aren't they and eat all the same food..hmmm and lest we forget it's "unhealthy"!!! absolute... smell I say!!! I'm sorry you can't sit on the fence after uttering these words, you don;' have a pot to whizz in!!!!! Facts are that Europe and America are the worst places in the world where heart disease and obesity is ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!! China as an example is nowhere near on the same radar in terms of diet related cardiovascular disease!!! This is the reality folks!!! People with these imaginative geographies who say things like "Asian food is often unhealthy" who live in cloud cuckoo land annoy the hell out of me!!! There is a reason why the portions aren't that large. Nutritionally noodles are a source of carbs, they are a high source of energy with medium content of calories. A healthy diet consists of a decent breakfast a light lunch and a medium sized dinner, with small snacks to boost energy through the day depending on amount of exercise and activity. Of course gorging on noodles will be healthy, gorging on anything is unhealthy!!!!!!! All this being said.. take this place on face value and enjoy the various different noodle boxes on offer as small bundles of energy boosters while you are shopping but don't expect a large menu like Rice or Wagamama. This isn't that sort of place. It serves its purpose Wok and Go and its all in the name.....so why don't people get it.....thankfully and hopefully the majority do while a minority continue to love their respective homely bubbles!!! read more

Solid choice for cheap noodles! Sure, nothing great or authentic, but fast, friendly, cheap, and tasty. I ordered a regular sized hot box - noodles with pork, beef, and chicken. I was told it would be spicy, which is normally a lie at Chinese places, but it actually was quite spicy. All of the meat was just okay aside from the pork which was quite tasty. Great spot for cheap and quick!! read more

decent food, good price. plenty of vegan / veggie options available. nothing special and the food isn't authentic but it's good if you just want some noodles for a low price. i ordered the veggie curry box but asked for the sauce to be changed to sweet and sour (i can't handle heat,lol). read more

A fast - food restaurant this place is good if you are hungry and short of time. It is also reasonably priced. The food is served in cardboard boxes and there was plenty of it and I enjoyed a tasty meal. A good compromise between a takeaway and a restaurant read more

Wok & Go - Indonesian Near Me - Liverpool, XMS

Wok & Go skimp on ingredients. I ordered sweet and sour chicken with rice, what I got was a box of rice with no sweet or sour sauce,tiny bits of chicken and veg. It was awful and I complained - they gave me more sauce. Never ever again. read more

Very very disappointing. You'll mostly get a plate of noodles with hardly any veg and hardly any sauce. If you want to recreate the same at home pour some oil on some egg noodles then pile high and make it look like there's actual ingredients by putting a thin layer of veg at the top. Can't believe I spent £8 on this mess. read more

The phad Thai is pretty good but my wife's sing a box was fantastic !! If you order a large you get a good deal for food to cost.

Amazing food and staff, great for vegans I write this for all vegan people looking to try this place. The gent at the counter was extremely helpful, he got all the vegan friendly items up on his computer and shared them with me. My food tasted absolutely amazing,it was udon noodles, broccoli, tomato and mushroom. Careful the tofu is NOT vegan!!! Again, it tasted unbelievable read more

Hey guys I think this place has got things just write went there the other day and have been back twice since.Its not a restaurant like some of the other noodle bars written about but is very much on the lines of a asian version of subway sandwich bar, fast ,fresh ,healthy cooked in front of you, if you want great food and your in a rush or fancy a quick bite before you go out ,then this place knocks spots off Mcdonalds/Subway and the like . £4.60 for a regular box is pretty good as the box is packed . Just remember this is a fast food establishment not a restaurant and its menu is designed to be basic and easy ,and it is but you can make your own box which is pretty cool and what more do you want. I predict these guys are going to be the next big thing in fast food, they apparently have 2 shops in Chester and are opening another in Liverpool ,and are now looking to franchise, if only i had the dosh i would be straight in there.Only thing is i hope they open later ,beats a kebab any day. read more

Boy are some reviewers hard to please! I visited Wok & Go yesterday with my 17 year old son. We chose to share a large Combo box - which on the outside didn't look overly generous but we honestly both felt pleasantly full afterwards and I was really hungry when I arrived . So both of us ate for £3.25 as we had a drink as well. There's a lot crammed into that box folks. I can honestly say it was the loveliest noodle meal I have ever tasted, full of a variety of meats and various sized prawns. My son said he could happily live on these noodles for the rest of his life. We loved them so much we bought another box to take home for my husband and youngest son who also thoroughly enjoyed their Combo box. I'll be going back soon - to see if the other boxes are as tasty as the Combo! Hope to see Wok & Go popping up all over the place. Wok on! read more

Just don't go there, food has gone down hill since the first year, what can you say when a noodle bar overcooks the noodles. my god, even the basics they cant get right. .Does not matter what you order now, you get what they have in front of them at the time. Just opened my beef salad box ( teriyak)i stinks of fish sauce and very salty, wrong noodles not soba as advertised and non of the salad elements or it seems the teriyaki sauce. This place was ok a year ago and some of the other reviews you can read were right back then, but this place has fallen so far, nasty nasty nasty. the raw materials they use now are NOT the same as last year R. mckay December 2011 read more

If you want quick tasty food that comes in those wonderful American style Chinese takeaway boxes then this is certainly the place to go. I highly recommend the food and don't think that if you order a small portion that you will be left hungry, as believe me there is plenty in one of those boxes, that they fill to the top! You can choose to eat with a fork or chopsticks and the food is exceedingly good. The place is very popular and you are often in a queue waiting for your food to be cooked, but believe me, it is well worth the short wait! The only negative is the seats inside the place, they are high and not the easiest or most comfortable, but they are adequate enough and the taste of your food makes you forget about any discomfort you may have with your seating arrangements. Of course you don't have to eat in and many people take their food away with them! If you live locally you can also get your food delivered and even order it online through sites like Just Eat. Anyway don't take my word for it, go try it yourself! read more
