Good food. Quick service. Good pricing. It's my go to place on Mondays. The egg rolls are not greasy. The fried rice has good color and flavor. read more

Called to order carry-out. It was ready before the time we were told which makes anyone happy! And the food always tastes delicious. The spicy food was the perfect hot and the sweet food was great! Kids love it,and if they do, it's a win in our book cause they hate other Chinese food restaurants. read more

Yum! Called in an order. Ready in 15 minutes. Delicious with left overs for breakfast read more

Not good quality food. Over priced and not quite right. Waited for a long time for the food. The indoor restaurant was not very clean and you could see the kitchen was not very clean as well. read more

This fast service location for take-out or delivery has the usual Chinese menu. That means chow mein, chop suey, lo mein, fried rice and the like. There are variations for each. Number 1 also has St. Paul sandwiches: The local inspiration made with chop suey and vegetables on white bread. (It may be an acquired taste--or not at all acquired--for some.) My beef fried rice wasn't exceptional but was acceptable. The restaurant didn't skimp on meat. An egg roll could have used more seasoning but was perfectly cooked with a crisp fried crust. During COVID-19 Number 1 has a table barring entrance. There's just enough space for one person to step inside to order or pick up a phoned-in meal. That's good to know in poor weather: Order ahead for pick-up or delivery so you're not waiting outside. read more

Number 1 Chinese Restaurant - Delivery or take-out at this small spot. - Chinese Near Me - O Fallon, Missouri

See all

It's decent Chinese whatever that means? Good St. Paul and decent portions. My biggest complaint was left a tip for the person in the front work in the register and she told me that they don't get any of the tips the owner pockets all that kind of pissed me off. I'll still go back though because there's very few good places to eat in O'Fallon, MO. especially Chinese food. read more

The food is good and always ready quickly for pick up. The place could use updating and a coat of fresh paint. Old posters need replacing and fresh paint would make the place more inviting. read more

Good food and good price best in the area we have found!! I ordered the triple it was great.

Fast and affordable. Is it gourmet? Nope. Is it made with the freshest ingredients possible? Probably not. Is it exactly what you're looking for when you want Chinese food on a cheat day, yes, yes it is. Crispy, greasy, bold flavors. The Goons are perfect. The soups hit the spot. The fried rice is just missing a lil red pepper which is an easy fix. The main dishes are exactly what you expect them to be. You have to supply your own insulin though. read more

Who's the hot blonde that delivers? I've never loved Chinese food so much! Very good food!

Food is consistant, multipul orders for home delivery and I am very happy with each order. We are from cali where ethnic food is better than most in the midwest, but this place if on par with what is found out west. read more

Super fast service, great food , was hot and ready when arrived for pickup! Some of the best Crab Rangoon I've had.

I was looking for a new place for Chinese food delivery, because our usual place changed their recipe for my favorite dish. We had recently received a menu in the mail for No. 1 Chinese Restaurant, so we decided to give them a try. When the food finally arrived, there was an issue with part of the order. I called, and the woman who answered was rude and barely spoke English, so the phone conversation was absolutely painful. I'm not sure she ever did understand what I was trying to tell her, so I finally just reordered the missing item, and drove there to pick it up. One of the items I had ordered was Chicken with Cashew Nuts, and I typed into the special instructions section "Spicy, and with extra cashews, please." I have ordered this dish with these instructions from numerous different Chinese restaurants over the years, with no issues, ever. This dish had almost NO cashews, and it was not the least bit spicy. After I finished it and was putting the leftovers away, I found that they had put little packets of cayenne pepper in the bag, so you basically have to season it yourself. Every other Chinese restaurant I've ever been to spices the food as it is being cooked. I didn't notice that I was supposed to season it myself until I was finished with it. None of the food was particularly good. The fried rice had an odd aftertaste, and the chicken seemed old and overcooked to the point of being tough. When all was said and done, I spent nearly $70 for food that was not properly prepared and was barely edible. We will not go back. read more

This was our first time ordering and we will never order from them again. The food was horrible and they didn't get the order right. I asked for no vegetables and that's all it was, barely any meat in the dish. I also ordered egg rolls with the combo plate and they sent me disgusting rangoons. I'm sorry but St. Louis has the worst crab rangoons I've ever had. Who has ever heard of sweet rangoons. But anyway, the fried rice was dry with no favor and the Mongolian beef was horrible. This was absolutely the worst food. Oh and to top it off the delivery driver was a nasty guy who cussed us when he left. read more

This is one of the dirtiest restaurants I have ever seen!!! I have ordered delivery before and the food was okay, this time I was out and about and pulled in to place an order to go. I started looking around as I waited and it was so filthy I thee the Oder away when I got home. I can't imagine how the Heath dept let's this place serve food!!! read more

Service was awesome. They made the food fresh and the wait was under 5 min. The people are friendly and gave me extra sauces when I asked. I will definitely come back thank you. read more

Time are tough but waiting over an hour and a half for food is crazy. Food was definitely sitting for a while.

Food is decent enough to keep ordering from but just realize if you are picking up double whatever time they tell you over the phone at the very least because their service is slow and they have no AC inside their restaurant. read more

Food is good but the delivery is horrible. Sometimes takes 45 min, which I'm ok with but twice it's been over an hour and when I call I'm told it's in its way only to wait another 20 min and have to call again. Don't offer delivery if you can't make it happen within a reasonable time. Will be looking for another option and will definitely be spreading the word to avoid this place for delivery. read more

I placed an order yesterday. Asked for chicken fried rice, no white onion, peas or carrots and hot braised chicken wings. The rice was very under cooked and hard and had white onions in it. Also, the chicken pieces(they weren't wings) were very small. I will NEVER order food here again. A complete waste of money as I couldn't even eat the rice because it was too hard. read more

This place sucks! I had an order delivered to my job, and it was a joke! I ordered Shrimp Chow Mein, and what I got didn't even have noodles. I called and the lady just kept telling me that Chow Mein doesn't come with noodles! This lady was lying to my face (so to speak)! I told her that if I came in and proved that Chow Mein comes with NOODLES, then she should give me a refund. Of course, she didn't comply. She was very rude, and dismissive. Also, I ordered soup and received no spoon. I actually didn't receive ANY utensils at all! I also requested duck sauce, and guess what I did not receive. The fact that it took an hour to get a fucked up order just puts the cherry on it. read more

Ordered 2 hours ago at 3:30 PM and still nothing. Just called and was told it was out for delivery.

My family and I have been getting food from here for a few years now. It's your typical Americanized Chinese food super salty with some spicy options. We have been pleased with the food. However, that has not been the case with our most recent visit. My family and I ordered food today. We go to pick up the order, come back, and find out that an order was missing. My parents call the place asking for the order. The people said no can do. No refund. No meal. They pretty much just took the money as a tip. My mom was without lunch. Will have to think double check if we should order from there again. read more

Don't judge the outside by its cover. It's tiny and not much to look at, but who cares!? Are you ordering Chinese food for ambiance? No, you want shove stuff that tastes good into your mouth hole. Well this place is awesome. My dad (who lives out of town) insists he gets No. 1 delivered whenever he's at my house. Full disclosure: He also insists that he can still lift the couch over his head, but in this case, he's right about the food. I recommend the General Tso chicken, as Monty Burns once said, "General Tso, you may've been a ruthless warmonger but your chicken is delectable!" Just order and stop Yelping Chinese restaurants, are you this picky about everything? read more

I love this place! Finally Chinese food my husband and I can agree on .... Seriously that's a huge deal in our house! Plus they offer delivery to our area, about 1.5-2 miles away, and they even told me they deliver out to practically Wentzville. Clearly they know they're good and won't stand in the way of my exhausted nightly cravings by making me put on normal clothes and driving up there after a 12 hour work day. We will be back .... Regularly. :) Only reason not 5 stars; sometimes it's hard to communicate exactly what we want and the order had come in wrong twice. No biggy, I love extra Crab Rangoon! read more

On 11/3/2020, I placed an order to No. 1 Chinese Restaurant at 3:10 p.m. via the "Beyond Menu" app. It took me approximately 14 minutes to arrive to pick up my order. When I arrived, the counter person was on the telephone attempting to run a credit card for an order, several times, which eventually went through. She then asked me what my order was, and after confirming, she turned around and walked away. I asked if my order was ready, and she said "no, I have to make the chicken wings". I then explained that I would not be able to wait any longer, as I placed the order at a particular time, and unfortunately, she had issues with her customer on the telephone. I asked her to just reverse the charges on my credit card. At that time, another female, mid-20's, came out from the back area, asking me "what's the big deal?" And then, she proceeded to sit down, and start typing on her cell phone. I was completely shocked, and sat down in the chair, choosing to wait for the food to finish. The other young girl finished the order, being completely polite, and apologized for the delay. I let her know that it was necessary to apologize. However, I did address the other female. I let her know that her behavior was unacceptable, and unprofessional, and that it just cost your business a good customer. She then asked me "why do you have to be so rude, what's the big deal?" Again, I let her know that her behavior is "what the big deal is". Disrespectful behavior and bullying the elderly doesn't seem like an example of what I would want a person to be representing my business. If I was her mother or father, I would be absolutely ashamed and embarrassed about this behavior. read more

Amazing lunch specials, the food was hot and delicious. I have found my new favorite Chinese food place!

My son didn't even get to eat because it's 10 mins before he had to go to bed very, very disappointed i definetly won't be going back read more

Best crab rangoon in town! Always get piping hot food in a reasonable amount of time...we've tried others and always come back to No. 1

We ordered some food for delivery, hour later still no food. Called and they said its on its way. Another hour has gone by and still no food. Called; put on hold and while on hold the food shows up. 2+ hours late read more

Ordered my food with a Pepsi. They forgot the Pepsi and said they would be right back with it. The place is about a mile down the road. Called back 20 minutes later and the girl who delivered picked up and said she is on her way out. Called another 20 minutes later and again said it is on its way, but the driver has 2 other deliveries before us. We were waiting to eat until we got the food. They said they would credit us $1.50. Real sweet. We will be going to 88 China from now on read more

Best take-out Chinese choice in O'Fallon! Singapore Chow Mai Fun and Special St Paul both excellent. Give 'em a try.

They forgot our Crab Rangoon for our carryout order. Even though we were outside their delivery range, they delivered them to us with some free cookies. We tipped the delivery driver and I know he drove the whole way here thinking he was gonna get stiffed. :) The food was really good! Will order there next time for sure. read more

It took 23 seconds on the phone to place my order. They even knew my apartment number and it was my second order there ever. The food is very delicious and fresh. delivery service is very good! read more

Terrible. We tried this place today and it was filled with grease. I've never seen grease drip from a crab rangoon like I did today. There are much better Chinese places on HWY K. Choose one of them!! read more

Im a chinese conniseur.. Trust me. Awesome hot braised chicken ...

They said 1/2 hr for delivery. It was only 15 mins! The food is very good & never disappoints. We are always pleased with the service, container packaging & quality of the food. Worth the tip. Best Chinese delivery in O'Fallon, MO read more

I have never had a problem with this place in the 9 years I have eaten from there. Usually delivery. I don't even think they have ever messed up an order.... Great tasting food as well. Absolutly love there spring rolls and the hot braised chicken is good too. read more

We have ordered here for years, until now! We placed an order at 830 pm. Were told it would be an hour, after an hour and a half no food so we called, they were closed. Food never came. Called for a refund next morning and had to wait for call back after call back. They said their driver came and delivered...they did not as proof by my ring doorbell and there was no "young girl and boy" here to take the delivery as they said. If they delivered it somewhere it was the wrong house and i never signed any receipt! Their driver then proceeded to contact us directly by phone to call us liars and harass us before hanging up on us. I contacted them back to advise of their drivers actions and AGAIN ask for my refund of $25 for food I did not get! Still waiting on my refund...I have never been treated this way by a company. I am honestly amazed at how awful they behaved and how its so difficult to give someone a refund for food they paid for that you never gave them!!! read more
