Some of the worst Chinese food I've ever had. I only leave bad reviews if the food sucks. All the fried food tasted off and the fried rice was painfully bland. Service, portion size, and ambiance are fine. read more

China One - General tso chicken - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Called in a order here, when I arrived they told me that had never received my order. The lady proceeded to say I only called with inquiries. I placed an order over the phone & she gave me my total, $18. When I arrived I was told that they never received my order and that my new total was $30. Never again. My family and I have been eating here for years. read more

Wednesday night I went to pick up takeout. I ordered General Tsu chicken and a shrimp plate. The sauce on my general tsu chicken was disgusting and old. The wontons and egg roll tasted expired also. I almost threw up after a few bits . I would have returned the food, but it was late and the last time I made a suggestion for fresh food at this location, I was told in a very defensive way, ALL OF OUR FOOD IS FRESH! Food went into the trash. read more

The food here is impeccable. I have not had better Chinese food in years. I would recommend this place hands down anytime someone asked for a good spot in Baton Rouge. Service here is the the only thing better than the food. They treat people with respect and are extremely friendly. They are fast and food is always quality. read more

Best Chinese Take out in Baton Rouge. Fresh and clean tasting food that won't have you raising your eyebrow. Meaning the pork eggrolls don't taste fishy and imitation ingredients...The Lomein is delicious and the Hot and Sour soup is to die for...Bon Appétit read more

I really did not want to write this review. However, the food was not on par with the 4 star reputation. I had a pickup order. I ordered the house special soup and the broth completely flavorless and watery. The vegetables and meat had very little flavor/ seasoning, like all the ingredients were cooked in just water. I appreciate that it was low sodium but it could use more "umph". The bell peppers and corn was undercooked in the soup. I'm going to have to add bouillon to it so I can eat it. I ordered blackened chicken for my fiancé, except he got chicken and broccoli instead. It was very pricy for what we ordered... I think if this restaurant works on the flavor of their food, I would give it a second chance. For now I will stick to Hong Kong Chef. read more

It's not a buffet but a 'take a Togo box and fill it with what you want' lunch special. The food was tasty and the place was hoppin for lunch. I'd recommend nabbing the Mongolian beef, bourbon chicken, spicy shrimp and mushroom chicken. 5.25 is the box special from 10:30am-3:30 pm. read more

China One - a woman standing in front of a restaurant counter - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

I was very pleased with my first visit to China One. After reading the reviews on Yelp & hearing good reviews from friends, I decided to give China One a try while running errands today. The gentleman who took my order was very helpful, friendly & efficient. I ordered the Sesame Chicken lunch special, which came with chicken fried rice for $4.50. I added a drink for a dollar more & left with enough food for 2-3 meals for $6. The sesame chicken was delicious. The fried rice was different than any I ever remember eating. The rice tasted as though it had been cooked with chicken broth. It was very good, tending toward bland, but still good & very different from typical fried rice. THE VERDICT- I will definitely be going back for take-out & hope to try their sushi. Fast & friendly service with large portions of tasty, affordable food. Win-win! read more

China One - Sesame chicken lunch special - Chinese Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

It's cheap, it's close and it's tasty. It hits the trifecta. The staff is friendly and fried rice isn't greasy, that's the litmus test for good Chinese in my book Give this place a chance, even though it's in a strip mall, it's still very good. read more

Ever pause to wonder if maybe one of the contributing factors to obesity in America is the "All You Can Eat" buffet? I mean the paradigm isn't based on altruism, and the reality is that any restaurant that serves one has to set a price point high enough to ensure they make money no matter how big a pig you make of yourself. So the price gets set at a high point and you consequently (whether consciously or unconsciously) feel as though to "get your money's worth" you have to do everything you possibly can in order to do so. Essentially, it seems to me, "All You Can Eat" buffets are the restaurant metaphorical equivalent of a farmer yelling "Soooey! Here pig, pig, pig!!" Well, wallow no more! There's a new buffet paradigm in town and it's all about ONE LOW PRICE ($5.95) for one Styrofoam lunch plate with compartments for 2 sides and a main upon which you can heap as much food on as you want so long as the box closes. ONE pass through the buffet line -- ONE shot for glory! You pay less, leave full, satisfy your craving, and get your Chinois on! We never had the lunch buffet before today (buffet hours 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM). We had a doctor's appointment out that way that ran way long so my partner and I stopped in around 1:30 PM for lunch and gave it a try. Sixteen different items to choose from, and though I forgot to write them down I remember having: sesame chicken, sautéed green beans, fried rice, lo mein noodles, an egg roll, "Crab" Rangoon (basically a cream cheese filling with a little bit of what I'm guessing was imitation Krab), beef with green peppers, and spicy shrimp. A little scoop of this, and a little dab of that - all good standard Chinese buffet fare. The vegetables seemed fresh and were crunchy not overcooked. My partner said to mention "good sauces and gravies" - so there... shout out to her - we review as a team. Her favourite thing was the green beans, but she always likes veg. Drinks were $1.50 each which is pretty much in the realm of standard price, and refills were free. There was a LOT of traffic, mostly take out, while we were there - even at 1:30 PM which is sort of a post business lunch crowd. It impressed me that even after the typical lunch rush they had pretty steady traffic and the food on the buffet was all hot and fresh. I think that it's a function of the one person / one box paradigm along with the quick to prepare nature of Chinese food. I also think the size of the buffet pans is a factor. Even though there are sixteen different pans of food, the length of the buffet is actually rather small as are the individual pans. As a result, if one person comes in and decides to scoop up a whole box of something it only takes a shout to the kitchen and 3 minutes or less to have more made fresh. We didn't get any photos alas. Basically we're part of the .01% of America that don't even own a mobile so if we want to do photos we have to bring a digital camera along. We DID however pick up a full menu (BIG SELECTION) which I will scan and post tomorrow. All in all our first buffet here was an impressive success. Again, SOLID Americanized Chinese and served at the right price, temperature, quickness, etc. To uplift my rating to 5 stars they'd have to serve actual REAL Chinese food, but if there was an "American Chinese Buffet" category, at least so far, China One would be our "Best in Class" in Baton Rouge in terms of quality, quantity, and price point. There's a "Sushi Lunch Special" (2 rolls - $5.99, 3 rolls - $7.99) that I definitely intend to go back and try. read more

Absolute favorite Chinese take out in Baton Rouge. Food has always been fresh and delicious. It's also inexpensive. I really wish it were closer to where I lived. read more

The staff here love everybody!! The food is great! Always hot(or cold if the sushi is intended that way....)and SUPER HUGE portions! Every time we visit there is a bunch of people going in and coming out! They are super friendly and remember us when we come in! The Sushi is fresh and we love the egg rolls! We usually get our regular favorites and something different. We are always delightfully satisfied and impressed. Everything is clean and short wait times on food! We always come in the evening. There seems to be some type of setup for possibly a lunch buffet. We get takeout from here at least once a week! Easy to get in and out of! read more

I have eaten take-out only from this restaurant. I decided to give their sushi a try. This is a new restaurant by only a few months. I've tried the following entrees and sushi rolls from here: Vegetable chow mein: - Was not impressed with this entree. There were no baby corn or even bean sprouts in this chow mein. It consisted of mainly stewed cabbage with onion strips, and I got ONE mushroom in the pint that I bought, very little broccoli, 2 pieces of celery, and 1-3 pieces of carrot shreds. The "crispy noodles" that came with it were chewy/crispy, almost kind of stale and very salty. They seemed to be homemade. The flavor was ok; nothing to jump for joy about. I've had much better chow mein. Maybe if some chicken were added it would be better? It wasn't 100% bad, but it was only 60% good. You be the judge. Pepper Steak with Onion - Not as good as Dim Sum's off of Airline Hwy. Flavor was ok, but not great. Crunchy Roll: - A little steep on the price but not too bad of a roll. The whole idea of this type of roll is to have CRUNCHY tempura inside the roll next to the snowcrab. They failed at this. Their "crunchy" wasn't so crunchy. Again, more chewy than crunchy. Kind of a let-down. But the flavor (again) was still good. In my opinion, flavor, texture, and appearance make up the whole recipe. Seeing as they didn't come thru on the crunchy part, it was a fail. The nori sheet (seaweed paper) was chewy as well. Not soft. I like mine soft. Sweet Potato Roll - Not much flavor to this roll. Very disappointing. Barely tasted like sweet potato. It's supposed to have tempura sweet potato, and I should expect a slight crunch from the tempura batter but again, it was chewy and not crunchy at all. ...not even crispy. Price should've been lower for this since vegetables are cheaper than meat. Should've been around $3.50. Fail. Spicy Salmon Roll - I requested added masago on the outside for this one and they added some to the top for .50 cents extra. Justifiable extra price though. Salmon was fresh and soft yet still firm. Nori sheet was still chewy (this seemed to be a problem on ALL their rolls). Flavor was yummy though. Golden Salmon Special Roll - A bit reminescent of the Rock-N-Roll from other restaurants with a slight twist. The tempura shrimp again was chewy not crispy tempura. This would've made it a whole lot more tasty. This roll had a very nice flavor to it. Was my top choice above the other ones. Snow Crab Roll - They seem to love to add cucumber in the majority of their rolls, especially the raw rolls. I eat it, but I am just not a fan of it, so I won't use that as judging criteria. I've had much better snowcrab rolls elsewhere (such as Ichiban's on Essen). Wasn't really a fan of this one and the flavor was just ok. Their sushi lacked a lot of flavor. Freshness was definitely acceptable though. The rolls were always very small. I've seen larger small rolls before. These were really small. Even the specialty roll was small. The quality of the rolling was slightly above average since they didn't fall apart when I'd pick them up with chopsticks or my fingers. The garnishes were cute. They made a little butterfly out of a large carrot slice. I'm not sure what the lemon slice was supposed to be but it was decorative as well. Overall, this restaurant was not bad, but it wasn't great, hence the 3 stars for "A-ok". I would still love to try the Sesame Chicken from here (since that's my favorite at Asian restaurants). When I do, I'll leave an amended review. I will eat from here again, but rarely. read more

Sad. The portions are huge and fresh, but the taste is greatly lacking. Even salt and pepper didn't help. The Mandarin chicken was fried with a batter and not breaded. The veggies were fresh and crisp, but the sauce was tasteless with no Chinese flavor. The egg roll was lacking in filling and taste. And the enormous serving of Fried Rice tasted like it was prepared in a rusty pan. Not edible. Service was average and the restaurant was clean. read more

Good food ... I think I found a new spot. Potential to rise to be great like China Express. There are good food and theirs great food.

I stopped in the China One after leaving the nail salon in the same shopping center to avoid sitting in traffic. I had the Szechwan chicken, 2 egg rolls and the fried rice +$1 to sub the pork for shrimp. It got me about 5 small shrimp (not the little pink ones THANKFULLY). While it tasted pretty good, it tasted like a sauce i could get off the shelf of my neighborhood grocer and be pleased with my work. It was enough to eat then and bring the rest for lunch the next day. For Chinese in a pinch i'd go again but I cant say it'd be my first choice. read more

I always enjoy going to a restaurant that serves great food! I've always loved having Chinese food, but I prefer this restaurant because of the great service and reasonable price. The buffet during the week is a great deal. read more

Fast and friendly service. The food is pretty good and the prices are affordable. The dinning area is clean and full of culture and art.

I got there around 2:30pm. The food on the so called buffet looked like it was there since 2:30 pm yesterday. It's a one time buffet with drink refills. I was in the area and wanted Chinese food. The service was what I would expect at McDonald's. Maybe take out is better. One good point the inside was very clean read more

This China one , ( which apparently sold all of its other stores) last night I placed an order for sushi and this one time (out of the millions of times I ordered it ) came with some type of pickled asparagus extra dressings and cheese flakes of some sort ! I went to bed without eating , tried to take it back today and they would not replace it or refund my money! I'm disgusted! I will never eat here again . DO NOT EAT HERE YOUR BUSINESS IS NOT VALUED ! read more

I really like this place. Consistently good service and food. The staff has always been nice and I have never gotten poorly made food from here even once. They have a small but good lunch buffet and a full Chinese takeout menu. read more

Very clean and friendly. The sushi was good and the egg drop soup was the best I've had so far.

I love this place. The only problem I've ever had was, when I used my prepaid card, and it was a couple dollars short of what I wanted. I tried to get the cashier to change the order for a cheaper dish, and due to a language barrier, when I tried to explain that the reason for the decline was because of the amount after tax, so if I order a cheaper dish it should go though, and she couldn't understand, so I left and got two subs from Subway next door. But I went back a few days later after my husband got paid, and ordered a couple meals to go. The serving sizes are crazy in a good way. My husband and I can eat our filling off of one of their dishes, and every year I try to make a special trip for their calendar. I hang their Calendar in my Kitchen, it's very cute. So if you don't feel like cooking, or short on time, I seriously recommend this place. read more

Me and my girlfriend were regulars at this China One for a very long time, until we decided to start visiting Oriental Pearl on Coursey due to its more restaurant-like atmoshpere. Things were great for a while, until my girlfriend got food poisoning from Oriental Pearl. We have not been back since, and will certainly go back to using China One as our go-to Chinese place. The restaurant is clean and well-lit, though its proximity to a bar (right next door) late at night makes me uneasy due to drunken strangers wandering inside. The food is spectacular and well-cooked. For only $6.95, you can get a box literally full of food (Packed to the brim). This is absolutely awesome for someone with a big appetite like myself. Too many other Chinese places give you dinky little boxes for your food. The staff are very polite, and very quick to get your food out. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more
