service was fast, food was plentiful, but the whole place just kind of smelled. the food was great but i was worried about food poisoning (i didn't get it, but it tasted like it might give me some) read more

Good tasting food. Great portions. The beef broccoli is my favorite. The orange chicken is also good and you can't go wrong with chicken steak. read more

Great customer service from staff. First time here, I didn't have high expectations. I was craving Chinese food and didn't feel like cooking it myself. This place reopened in June after major health code violation's. The food tasted similar to any other Asian fast food restaurant. I think everyone will be safe eating here if you're looking for something quick in the area. The place was clean and service was fast. 3 stars because food had no wow factor. I felt I was just eating to satisfy my hunger. read more

An hole in the wall, but taste, portion, & prices did NOT disappoint! The staff was friendly & my order of crab Rangoon was made ready in about 5 minutes. The place is old, rips on some benches, & pile of boxes in one corner, but food was surprisingly fresh & tasty! We got orange chicken, peppered chicken, seafood vegetable stir fry, broccoli beef, a box of 12 crab Rangoons. A box of noodles or fried rice with 2 items is $8.75 & it is stuffed & comes with an eggroll. They also gave us a medium-sized piece of bbq pork. It is a lot of food, enough for at least 2 meals! A box of 12 crab Rangoons was $5.99, & they were decent! The beef broccoli was tasty with perfectly cooked broccoli (not soggy) & tender beef. Everything else was also tasty. The peppered chicken was crispy but tender inside. The eggroll was pretty good, better than some quick Chinese places. This may not be a place for a date or a corporate meeting, but perfect for quick pick up when you don't feel like eating fast food! read more

found metal shaving in my food. aldo heard the loud music in the kitchen. overall wouldn't come back.

Review #8 of 22 for the year 2022! I driven by this place a couple of times and its hard to miss so I stopped by to try it out. There is plenty of parking and they do have a drive thorough available. They have the typical food you find at a fast food Chinese restaurant ,orange chicken, Beijing beef, sesame chicken, eggrolls, stir fry rice etc. They have a 'pick your own bow/plate" which is similar to other big chain restaurant. The drinks are only one dollar and they are as big as my face *see picture attached to this review for size comparison*. When I went it was well after the lunch rush so there was nobody inside eating but they did have 2 other people ordering inside to go. It did not take long to get my food so I decided to eat inside the empty restaurant. Not gonna lie yall, this place could use a face lift but it gets the job done right. There were some tables with trash left behind and the table i sat at looked to be the cleanest but it still had food crumbs *sad face*. I was really looking forward to trying out the food but I am not sure what happened but the food had no flavor. No flavor at all, I am not sure if it was just that day or like that everyday but seriously it was bad. I had to drown that food with so many packets of soy sauce to taste anything. I know its not me because I can taste everything else I ate earlier that day. So yeah... there you have it... no flavor....average service......outdated facilities.....but its convenient so there's that. read more

This is the OG chinese place for me. I have been going here since I was a kid. Their plates will feed you for breakfast lunch AND dinner, they're huge! Come here for your quick chinese food fix! read more

It was time for a much needed quick bite. I was craving chinese food so, I decided No 1 Chinese Restaurant will have to do. It was an interesting experience! I remember come her back in my glory days when I was in college. I loved it back in the day. I remember their food being warm and fresh. My how things have changed! When I walked up, this couple was walking out and the guy spit in front his date!? I walked in and this couple, who seemed like regulars were ordering complex combos and lady was indecisive too. Might I add they waited a minute too. By the time I ordered my food the pyt, she was actually Hispanic w light eyes, light skin and pretty eyeshadow was a bit stressed. I was definitely feeling her energy. I heard her say, a customer at the drive through got the wrong order. I felt so uncomfortable. I didnt want to ask for amything else. Really awkward. Sweet and Sour Chicken with Fried rice and an egg roll for 3.99+ tax is what Inordered. What a steal! However, I was really disappointed. I took my first bite and was thinking, ugh.. "this is old stale and crusty!" It was definitely not fresh. They are also slim on the sweet and sour sauce. My eggroll was ok. It was salty semi crispy. Their fried rice wasnt the best. It had caramelized onions and dried up tastless peas. I sat down in a booth and their was significant wear and tear. As soon as I sat down, their was no support or comfort. I was like, can this even hold my skinny butt?? I think, they should get a new booth or reupholster it. Also, my table was wobbly. I cant help but, to notice the walls were dirty and needed some paint. As I ate, my not so No 1 Chinese food, soft classical music played, which instaneously made me feel calm. Boy, I needed that after what I experienced thus far! It was a really nice feeling thats very therapeutic after a long boring day in accounting.Lol Dazing out the window, I regretted not going to Taco Casa. Lol. While I was looking out the window I saw a woman dash into the parking lot. She zoomed into a parking space, as if, it were the last one left! I was disappointed. It was a definite joy killer from the moment I arrived.. The negative energy, the semi pleasant enviroment and not so tasty food was a downfall. I do enjoy their prices and thev have good lighting and white tables that make pictures come out good. Im a woman of chances. Perhaps, theres something else on the menu I could try? I look forward to trying their sesame chicken, steamed rice or LoMein. If you have good pricing nothing scare me away. Lol read more

Staff is friendly. They're quick and helpful if you don't know the menu. It's obvious the food has been left under the burner for days. Breading separates from the meat indicating it's been 140F for way too long. This leaves the meat feeling very odd in the mouth as well. I ate a quarter of my food before throwing it out. Not an inviting spot to sit down to eat either. There are boxes stacked in the dining room and the cleanliness is questionable. Basically I paid $10 for employees to be nice to me. Wish the food was good. read more

This place's saving grace is that the portion size is big! It didn't disappoint in that the food was as "good" as I thought it was going to be. I really wanted it to be delicious. But it didn't. I went for the kids meal. Oh. The speaker where you order didn't work. I pulled up to the window and the lady looked surprised...really? I got everything in the tiniest to go box. How'd they squeeze all that in there? The chicken in the jalapeño chicken was fried. Not stir fried. 2 slices of jalapeno. The egg roll was tucked neatly in between the fried chicken nuggets and the half pound of lo mein. It tasted alright but different from the fresh stir fry I expected. I'll come back if there is nothing else to get. But there's a McDonald's on the other side of the Hwy... read more

Yummy!!! Yummy!!! Get in my tummy..... I love to try small, hole-in-the wall places. Truth be told they always have the best food for a cheap price. I would drive here for their food and prices. You would have to, given the location. Very deep into Fort Worth. I stop by when I am in the area. About four bucks and some change will get you one meat, two sides, egg roll, a drink, and fortune cookie. I always opt for Jalapeno Chicken (it has a small kick), lo mein, fried frice, egg roll, fortune cookie, and mountain dew. All under five bucks, its a win-win. Now, I do suggest going inside for a sample, make sure its fresh. Too far of a drive to come back. Good thing, as with any Chinese joint, samples are free!!! The thing is you would think it would be a small portion-nope!!! Don't let the outside fool ya. The inside either, its not fancy, no thrills. But, worth a try. If you blink, you will definitely miss this place. They are nice too. They give you all the soy sauce you want!!! read more

Wait, how have I not left a review for this place over the last 10-15 years? This is my go-to to-go Chinese place. Once I had mushy noodles and it broke my heart. But I rubbed some dirt on it and walked it off. This place is great. They give you so much food for your money. I'm a fat boy and I can get 3 meals from a single order. The containers are absolutely packed. I do wish their website was better. And frankly, folks, pictures do not suffice as a "menu". It is hard to get family input if you can't share a menu link with them. But I usually get the same thing every time, so I've survived. For the price, you can't beat this place. Now if they'd just trim that wicked shrub by the pick up window I'd be really happy. read more

The serving portions are great. They will fill up your plate. The service could be worked on. I went today and one of the servers had a fucking attitude. They had me waiting in the lomei. When it was ready, one of the servers gave the whole batch of lomei to the other single customer there. read more

Looking at these reviews, and i'm very confused. In my personal experience, I thought this place was great. Building does not pass the eye test, nor does the inside as there's boxes everywhere. But environment does not make a huge impact on my reviews. I ordered Lo Mein with Sesame and Orange Chicken and also got an Egg Roll. They absolutely loaded up my box. I also grabbed some Soy Sauce and Sweet and Sour Sauce (i think). Lo Mein was pretty good, but the Orange and Sesame Chicken did it for me. Both very good flavor and texture. Egg Roll was solid too and the Soy Sauce (not the packet but the container) was very very good. Honestly very impressed with this place! read more

the food was really MID as hell, it had like a real bad aftertaste to it, i ordered lo mien, rice and orange chicken with the fried shrimps, the shrimps were not deveined, i ate shrimp that had still in the SPINE....real turnoff....the portions & price, amazing but for the food? that isn't fresh and has probably honestly been sitting there for what taste like days? it's not even worth it, take your $9 else where cause i really, and REALLY wish i had got my receipt cause i would have honestly returned it, i fed that plate to some dogs on the street, how does the lo mein even got a after taste? like damn what is y'all preparing the food in dirty dishes? or are y'all even making fresh batches of food everyday? cause that's what it taste like, real disappointed. CRAVINGS WERE NOT SATISFIED read more

This is the worst chinese restaurant I've been to and I wouldn't even give it 1 star but had to leave a review. Food taste awful like it has been recycled or recooked. One day went to give it another shot but it was closed with Danger Sticker on every window and that gave a confirmation of what I thought these many years about this place. Warning to anyone who decides to eat here there's a chance that you could become sick. I will never buy from this place ever again. read more

I've been eating here since I was a kid it's abs one of my favorites and it never gets old

This place is so underrated, has so much food for really cheap, not authentic Chinese food but is like an off brand Panda Express, the workers are always nice to me and my friends, but the establishment could use a little bit more of TLC. * you should get the red chicken or whatever that red meat is, it's so delicious read more

I feel like I go often to give it a 4 for the chicken sticks and lo mein or chicken sticks meat only entree to share if you are lucky!!! The portions are huge and the value is great. The service is always quick. My quick go to when I'm craving that char siu flavoring that my momma makes. read more

this restaurant use to be my favorite place until today I encountered a very rude drive thru worker tonight I drove up to the intercom sat there minute and blew my horn no response so I drove around as I wait for her to come to the window to take my order she tells me since she didn't hear me she couldn't take my order Im like excuse me since I didn't hear you you have to go back through the line I have to take the people behind you that I heard at this point I ask for a manager she tells me theres not a manager so I ask for the store number she tells me to google it so go inside to order and ask for a manager and let her know that she has poor customer service skills, I spoke with a young man there that' said he was the manager and explained what just happened he apologized and stated he is aware of the malfunction of the intercom I explained that this is- second time that intercom this week has malfunctioned but how as a customer is that my faultlong story short I want be back I don't recommend this place one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch, read more

Food is garbage. Orange chicken is super sub par and the teriyaki chicken taste burnt. Only upside is the portion they serve

This is one of my favorite go to for fresh thai food. The prices fit the budget and staff is always friendly.

This establishment has been opened for about 8 years. Seven years ago the food was good. I went there about three months ago and found the food terrible and the staff unfriendly. I swore never to eat there again. read more

I call at 10:00 PM to place an order for a spot that closes at 10:30. I live 5 minutes away! And the loser that answered the phone says "we're about to close." Soooooooooo are you gonna take my order orrrr????? And once again I hear "we're about to close..." OH OKAY SO THAT'S A NO?! GOT IT. GOT IT. THANKS...FOR ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Food probably sucks anyways just like the customer service. Texas sucks in general so I'm probably right. read more

It's alright. Not bad, but not authentic! Very good place if you're looking for something similar to Panda Express. Only difference is this place gives a large portion! (Thankfully) Don't go if you're looking for authentic. Not bad. I got chicken fried rice and chicken lo mein. Menu is around $6-10. Each came in a regular white foam Togo box and was filled with food. I like a lot of salt in my food, and this wasn't enough. But all around, pretty decent . read more

Dirty little establishment the health department should absolutely check out. The place is very unclean and could use some major attention. However if you order the fresh combo lo mein , you will be thrilled. Outstanding entrée. Worth driving all the way across town to the hood. Never mind the plastic cutlery and Styrofoam takeout this dish is the bomb. read more

I love this place the egg drop soup is amazing the meals don't cost much and you have leftover for days so worth it

I ordered the one entree meal. They gave me SO MUCH food! The box was stuffed! This would be a good place to come if you are starving! It was salad very cheap. I paid four bucks for the meal with no drink. I would come again if I'm in the area. read more

Trash....avoid. Enough said. Close to work, gave them a shot, maybe the worst Chinese food I've ever had.

Worst Chinese food I haver ever ate . It is cheap and they do give good portions . But I'm definitely not coming back.

Most amazing chinese! You get the bang for your buck. You get huge portions of chinese food!

They're okay. I've been multiple times and I love Chinese food but they just aren't that great. They aren't the best by far and the food is mediocre but you get a lot for the price. The best is the sweet and sour shrimp and chicken. Ragoons are okay but are mostly cream cheese and little to no crab. The orange chicken and Sesame chicken are basically the same and are usually soggy and bland. The noodles are not usually hot either and they barely give sweet and sour sauce when you get the sweet and sour chicken or shrimp but they are still bomb even when you get them and they're cold. Also, the sweet tea has a strange after taste is free when they decide to give it to you when you meet the price minimum. Not to mention when the card machine messed up they wanted to take my card number and I thought that was a bit much even they could've just asked for cash only. Overall, it's okay but I really wouldn't recommend if you're looking for quality. Purely a quantity over quality Chinese place. read more

It's not gourmet, but I get the fried rice combo and it's very filing and pretty darn tasty. Also a lot for the money.

I went to this restaurant since I was in the mood for Chinese food and this was the only place in the area. I know it's been open for a couple of years just from passing. I usually see cars there and assumed that this place should be somewhat decent. This place is getting only 1 star, because I can't give anything lower. I made the mistake of eating here, I ordered fried shrimp and fish, which was overcooked and tasteless. I also tried the lo mien with orange chicken and teriyaki chicken which were disgusting. The orange chicken was actually red and the teriyaki chicken looked like it was kicked around in dirt. The lo mien was bland and flavorless. I wouldn't send my enemies to this place, in the fear that Karma would kick my @ss. This is by far the worst Chinese food ever! I figured at least the fortune cookie would be good, and boy was I wrong! Avoid this place like the plague! You've been warned! read more

i had it 1 month ago. I wouldnt say its the worst chinese food cuz i have had really bad ones before. but for the price its not bad and the flavors average like any cheap chinese food joints. i dont have high expectations for fake chinese food joints. they all pretty much taste about the same. you have your normal lo mein or fried rice and assortments of entrees. so if you want a big portion so you can have some for later great place to eat. and its close to tcc. My personal opinion is to try it once to see if you like it. for me i would come back for more if i do get hungry enough. its really a 3.5 but since i cant do that i rounded up. read more

They neither wash their hands before serving nor do they wear plastic gloves. Years ago when the food was good, that was overlooked, now that the food is bad, it's just too much to tolerate. I don't know why the county health department hasn't inspected. read more
