Walked in and walked right out unbelievably dirty. Not what is used to be Unorganized Would not recommend it. read more

Ordered and paid for meal with extra things added on, delivered via Uber and received meal only add on extra were missing. I called the restaurant and asked for a credit, the gentleman answered to add on next order no credit. The food was just okay did not taste fresh but more disappointed was the response of not crediting what I paid in full. He told me to call Uber and they will credit.. Uber just delivers (and did a great job) but they are not in charge of refunds. Will not order from them again. Do not recommend. read more

We used to love China One but it seems like the quality of food is going down. The last time we ordered from there my son ordered the Chow Mein and it was just mostly cabbage! Yuck! I really hate it that they don't have tables inside anymore too. You can only pick up have it delivered. I'm not sure they're going to last much longer. read more

I had ordered take out from here a few times. It wasn't bad. And then, yesterday, I decided to try something different. I ordered the house special Mai Fun. Wow!! It's so good. And I also tried their egg drop soup, which was also very, very good. They have added on-line ordering, so you just walk in and find the bag with your name. I think I have found my new favorite! I wish they would offer half orders of some of the appetizers, is the only negative thing I will say. read more

The steamed potstickers and pork lo mein are both phenomenal. I would absolutely get these again.

Over fried crab rangoon. Took quite a while to catch a person to take my order. Shrimp fried rice, you're lucky to get at least 5 shrimps in this order. read more

Woman at register is not friendly at all. Does say hello, thank you, come again etc. Puts change down on counter and walks away! However you are there for food. Not to great just average. nothing stands out. The main problem is lack of consistency. It can go from ok to fair each time you order. read more

This place is garbage now unfortunately. 20-ish years ago it was good now it tastes like they use gutter oil. Health inspectors from STL county (if you talk to them) say this is the worst restaurant period. read more

I got food here through DoorDash and halfway through eating my food there is a ROACH in my food. This is DISGUSTING!!!! read more

China 1 - Roach in food - Chinese Near Me - Twin Oaks, Missouri

Great food! They give you everything you need in the bag when you pick up. They also have the various sauces available close by for you to add to your bag. I'm not sure they do dine-in. Ever since Covid they've had a table by the door for picking up the food. It's like right there as you walk in. They are no nonsense over there. They make food, you eat the food. Done. It's ALWAYS GOOD so, yes, I'll eat the food! Ambiance is simple, no frills. Nice pictures of food they prepare, and some random chairs and tables. I'm not there for ambience, I'm there for my to-go order! Which is expertly packed and ready. This is our go-to place for local Chinese cuisine. I have never been disappointed. You go try now! You like! read more

I ordered takeout from China 1 a few days ago. The food was quickly ready and was delicious upon eating it at home. When I was at the store and paying, I was told the apparent amount and given the two credit card receipts. I left a tip, signed, and gave back the merchant copy. Then, I asked for my itemized receipt! Very sneakily, I was charged more on my credit card than was the full actual amount for what I had ordered, including taxes. If this restaurant is willing to be shady and purposefully charge customers more than the true bill should be, I'm worried about what other short cuts they're taking! I will not return. read more

The dumplings were edible. The soup was edible with no meat. The sweet and sour pork was inedible. The sauce had little flavor and was thin as water. The fried pork was mostly breading with no flavor. The dish was absent any vegetables. read more

China 1 - Take out 51. Chicken with Broccoli (white rice) and egg roll - Chinese Near Me - Twin Oaks, Missouri

See all

I've ordered take out from China 1 on a few occasions as it it very close to my house and delivers pretty quickly. I have to admit, I'm conflicted. I've tried a few different entrees and wasn't impressed with any of them. This being said, they have THE BEST fried rice that I have ever had and the appetizers are pretty good as well. The fried rice is full of meat and they don't short you on the egg part of it either. Overall, I'll probably keep ordering from China 1, but I wish they would shape up some of their entrees so that I didn't order the same thing every time. read more

Needed something quick on Xmas for dinner and came across this place. Ordered for a big family, had the order done within 30 min, even with a line of Door Dashers picking up. Everything was good like any similar place. Will give high compliments on the lomein, one of the better ones I have had in the Saint Louis Area. read more

The inside of this "restaurant" is filthy. The front door is so nasty you don't want to touch it. The floors and walls are covered in grime. This is what I get for "branching out" and calling in an order to a different place. The one star is the lowest I could give to warn others. It's disgusting and no, we did not eat the food we felt obligated to pay for. read more

I ordered cashew chicken. On Thursday 10/6. Chicken was hard as if it was old. And had about a total of 10 cashews in my meal. The fried dumplings were chewy. Everything tasted as if it was days old and reheated. read more

This is our go to order in Chinese food restaurant. I've read the other reviews and w3 have never ever experienced anything even close to what they talk about. Is it the best in th3 area? Probably not. But is it consistent, convenient, and worth what you pay? I'd say yes. read more

This place has become our sort of go-to Chinese food place. It isn't the best we have had in the area but it is close and always consistent. Now, saying it is not the best does not mean it is bad. We usually get Sweet and Sour Chicken, Chicken and Broccoli, and Vegetable Lo Mein. The portions are above average in size. It is the sauces that are slightly off to what we like. Again, not bad - just different. You are quickly greeted by a person at the counter to take your order. You can get it to go or sit in the restaurant. The seating is someone dated and I think an after though to the food. If you didn't see the photos or the Chinese characters on the menu you would have a hard time knowing it was a Chinese restaurant. The aroma from the food cooking is always pleasant and makes us want to dig in to our dinner! read more

China 1 - Ready to order - Chinese Near Me - Twin Oaks, Missouri

Our food contained: raw chicken, overcooked/hard chicken and smelled as if it spoiled 3 days ago. Everyone ate one bite of chicken fried rice, everyone got food poisoning. They have been reported to the Health Department by myself and apparently others. Absolutely unsafe to eat to here. read more

Driving home from a busy day and decided to get carry out on the way. They said it would be ready in 30 minutes but The food was ready when I got there 10 minutes early. Food was well packaged and hot when I got home. The egg roll, spring rolls and crab rangoon were all crisp and well filled. In fact the crag Rangoon filling was very generous. The shrimp lo me in noodles were al dente and this shrimp were cooked right. The Kung Pao chicken was made with mostly dark meat and the sauce wad rather bland. Fast and friendly but I still need to find a go too Chinese restaurant near home. read more

I've been coming here for 14 years and come back every time I'm in town even though I moved away 12 years ago. It's possible this is the best Chinese food in STL, or maybe the US (not joking). I've lived in New York, San Francisco, etc and haven't found a great low key Chinese take out replacement yet. The best dish is the Szechuan chicken which is like a chicken in brown sauce and the crab Rangoon (actually amazing). 100% the employees are super rude but that's how you know the food is good. read more

It is a good place to dine the employees are nice I recommend eating there or take out. 10/10

China1 at Big Bend & 141? More like China Zero. It was TERRIBLE. We took advice from others on social media and ordered China1 Saturday, March 5, 2022. It was, by far, the worst Chinese food we've ever had. My son ordered Chicken Fried Rice and he said that it didn't taste right. I inspected it closely and found that the chicken was so undercooked, it was still pink inside. My wife ordered Sweet and Sour Shrimp and it was also undercooked. The breading was so raw inside it was like dough. We all threw our food out. $40 wasted. We're going to stick with Thai food from Asian Corner. The food is always fresh and delicious. read more

Got some take out last night when my normal spot wasn't open. Won't be going back. Sweet and sour chicken was just a container of fried chicken pieces with a syrupy sauce on the side. Mu shu chicken was bland and the pancakes they served it with were split in the middle so they couldn't be used to wrap the food. Place is only open for take out so if you're looking for a place to sit, you won't find it here. The only redeeming quality was the crab rangoons, which are hard to mess up. read more

Wish I could rate this negative stars.This is the Mongolian beef they gave me...all onion. We called and they acted like I was blind and kept trying to tell me to look under the onions as if I didn't look for the meat in my Mongolian beef order. They were yelling on the phone (which I found quite comical) and told me to bring it back tomorrow and we will give your money back. I'm just never going back again. read more

China 1 - 75. Mongolian Beef - Chinese Near Me - Twin Oaks, Missouri

This is my favorite go to Chinese take out! I get it way more then I should, at least once or twice a month if not every week. I love how consistent their food is. In the last 5 years I have been going only once have I had a bad experience. My favorite dishes I get are... The honey chicken! It is like the sesame but the sauce isn't as thick. That being said sometimes I prefer the sesame chicken since it has broccoli in it unlike the Honey. Their Cashew Chicken is to die for! I have never had cashew chicken this good from a take out place. I also love their sweet and sour chicken which is breaded in a tempera like badder and left with the sauce on the side. I have also tried their Mongolian beef but found it way to spicy to eat. They have the best crab Rangoon hands down. You can taste the crab! It isn't just cream cheese. They also have fantastic potstickers! I definitely recommend. read more

Frankly we have been buying take out from this place past two nights-) the food is very home made n tasty! We have ordered roast pork w snow pea , eggs foo yong, chicken with broccoli and beef stir fry with onions -) everything tasted delicious ! Def worth our trip ! read more

We have been ordering from China one for a number of years and the food is consistently good. Their mushroom egg foo young is delicious. My husband especially likes the curry chicken. read more

The fried dumplings were good, but the General Tso chicken was dried out and lacked flavor.

I will never go back! I ordered a carry out order of orange beef , I received orange chicken. I called when they open to the next day to complain. I did not call when I got the order because they had already closed. They were closing as I was leaving. It took me 20 minutes to tell them that I was trying to get beef not chicken. She had to call somebody on the phone and talk to them about whether not they could replace my order. If you're gonna talk to about a customer talk in English not Chinese. The next day my husband was eating his leftover food and found ants in it.In the sauce which was kept in the refrigerator I am reporting to the health and food division. read more

Best pot stickers in town!! Food is always hot and yummy. Love supporting local businesses vs chains.

We have been eating at China one restaurant for several years now and have always had good food but the last couple of times that we've gone we've noticed that The quality of the food has really gone downhill. I don't know if they have got new cooks or changed recipes or new owners but the food taste old and dried out and overcooked. Very disappointing because it is such a convenient location to get Chinese food. Definitely do not recommend anymore. read more

Ordered Fried Dumplings, Crispy Beef, and Ham Fried Rice. The dough on the dumplings was by far the thickest and gummiest I've ever had and filler was sub-par. Crispy beef was a gelatinous block by the time we got it home (maybe 5 minutes later) and the fried rice was below standard too. Took a chance on a shopping mall chinese and it was a bad call. I'll drive to South Grand from now on to get my fix. I'll agree that the portions were generous, too bad they weren't delicious. read more

Don't waste your money! We ordered takeout last night from China 1 for the first time and it was horrible!!! I ordered chicken with mushrooms and got maybe 3-5 small pieces of chicken...it was literally just a container of mushrooms smothered in sauce. My husband got sweet and sour chicken and also didn't get any actual chicken. It was just 90% fried batter. We also got an order or crab rangoons and spring rolls and they both tasted like they had been fried in month old frying oil. Even the smell alone made us sick so they went straight in the trash. We both had horrible stomach aches the rest of the night. We'll never be back. read more

I ordered food from them and had it delivered via Door Dash. When the food arrived, the order was incomplete, missing egg rolls and the order didn't include any sauces. Crab Rangoon should come with a sauce, soy sauce a given... but when I called them to tell them that I was missing items that I ordered and that I didn't get any condiments the man on the phone told me that it was the Door Dash drivers problem. Door Dash drivers keep extra egg rolls and condiments in their pockets? This place sucks! No way to treat a first time customer. Will not order again. read more

Will not order from again. Sweet and sour pork was not crispy. Pork cow mien was over cooked mush. Pork fried rice was only fair.

Best Chinese food I've had around Manchester and 141. Lo mein is awesome! read more

China 1 - Menu Cover - Chinese Near Me - Twin Oaks, Missouri

I'm rating China 1 five stars because they are great at what they do - American Chinese takeout. They are the most consistent place in this category AND their sweet crab rangoon is delicious (don't be mistaken there is no crab in it however). I've been ordering takeout and calling in orders for about three years and have always received good service. read more

TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Staff is very rude. They will often get your order wrong and blame it on you when you ask them to fix it. I have been going there for years and the customer service and food had definitely declined over time. DON'T PAY WITH CARD! On multiple occasions they will over charge you the price they tell you in hopes that you won't notice. Would not recommend ! read more
