    Sesame Chicken
    Daniel M.

    Man, this place slams down the gauntlet at a good bite at a good price. I recently relocated to Maynardville. Food City is my grocery store of choice, so I drove to the local one and kind of scoped stuff out. There's a small strip mall next to the Food City, and one business there is China One. I popped in maybe my second or third visit over to Food City. Got some of that Sweet n Sour Chicken. And it was just how I like it... breaded, fried, with ample sauce and a side of rice. Man. It slayed and fulfilled. Popped in again and got the sesame chicken. Again, hit the spot. Was a lunch portion and I swear it was two meals worth, all for less than a Ten. The folks are nice, and the menu expansive. I hope to try much more if this once, soon!

    Quick lunch. Friendly service. Casual eat-in or take-out. Rice was a little salty for my pallet, but all in all not bad for a much needed meal.

    A sad bowl of onions with 5-6 slivers of beef. Yes, we counted them. We're told that it was made good.

    Well, I guess you get whatever you get from a place like this. China One used to be decent and you would think that in the time of Covid with restaurants struggling, they would strive to be better. I ordered a couple of things, one being the Mongolian Beef. What I received was a box of onions with 5 or 6 (seriously) slivers of meat. When I called, they were very argumentative telling me the "chef" said it was good so basically it was too bad. It was $9.50 for just this dish, and what I asked for was 1/2 of the money refunded for just that dish. The girl on the phone was talking to 2 people in the background who were not speaking English, but were getting noticeably more annoyed with me. She told me that they said that I would not be getting my money back, told me that I was a bad person, and hung up on me. I really shouldn't have expected anything less, but I feel like you should get what you pay for. We have had this item many times before and it was fine. If you can't afford make the dish properly, then take it off the menu. The rest of the food here is subpar at best. So if you're looking to satisfy that Chinese food craving, wait until you're in town.

    Bad news Maynardville, this restaurant is under new ownership. We ordered several dishes. Let me review. The pork dumplings: we ordered them crispy but they were soggy. We fried them more at home. They just didn't have any flavor. The dipping sauce just tasted like sugar. It's soy sauce based. We got the wonton soup, just bland, not edible. We ordered the hot and sour soup and it too was bland. Yes, it felt spicy hot on the palette, but no flavor. I added rice vinegar to no avail. The sweet and sour chicken is all batter, just slivers of chicken inside. Appears to be real white meat chicken. This is kind of normal for many restaurants. Finally, the garlic chicken. I get this because no matter where I go it's edible. In this case, the ingredients were good, broccoli was just right, nice chicken too. But again the flavor was gone. Just tasted very sweet with a little bit of mouth burning. I ate here a couple years ago and it was great to have a nice place way out here. I'm hoping the new owners get this feedback and change/ taste their food and make improvements. There is a lot of potential!

    Have a nice day...

    See all

    The food has always been delicious here. The egg rolls are tasty and the noodles are great! The eating area is small but always clean.
