    My favorite place for lunch when I'm on that side of town. Everything is delicious!!! There's been nothing I've had that I didn't like!

    Delicious and cheap- probably the 2 most important things I look for in a meal and Hot Wok has it in spades.

    Notes: 1) only had takeout…read more2) went drive thru Pros: 1) fast service Cons: 1) some good food but majority was okay Rating: 4/5 (unable to fully rate because of drive thru) The ordering was quick and easy. They had our order done fast and on time. Service overall was good. Unable to comment on the ambiance but the drive thru option is nice and the restaurant didn't look bad from the outside. The food was majority just okay. The best dish is definitely the lo mein. The bao was okay. The twice cooked pork was okay. The beef stirfry was okay. The honey chicken was decently good. It was all relatively just an okay meal. Food ratings: Lo mein: 4.5/5, best dish there. Almost perfect with the seasoning and taste Bao buns: 3/5, pretty common tasting, nothing unique about it Beef stir fry: 3/5, pretty normal tasting, nothing unique about it Honey chicken: 4/5, was pretty good and unique Twice cooked pork: 2/5, tasted okay, not a lot of flavor overall between the meat or the veggies

    Refreshing chicken dishes! Service was fast and the cups of soups are only $1 on Sundays- perfect…read morefor a starter. Portions are large- you certainly won't leave hungry (and will probably have leftovers). The chicken with vegetables needed sweet and sour sauce, but the mandarin chicken was seasoned wonderfully. Great for a chill spot with lots of options.

    For years I've driven past China No 1 in Northport and never once stepped inside--until today…read more After eating there, I'm honestly scratching my head trying to solve the mystery of why it took me so long. I called in a takeout order, which is something I usually avoid. Let's be honest--takeout food often rides home like it's been trapped in a sauna. Fried food turns soggy, sauces disappear, and by the time you open the container it looks like it just survived a long trip through the Amazon rainforest. But since I ordered the Shrimp Szechuan Style with grilled vegetables, I decided to roll the dice. About ten minutes after picking it up, I got home and popped open that 21st-century "Tupperware" container--and the food was still steaming hot. Not warm... not "microwave revival" hot... I mean fresh off the stove hot. The first bite was magical. It had that love-at-first-sight feeling... or like that first date when you get butterflies down in the gizzard meeting someone special. The shrimp were fresh, the vegetables were cooked just right, and there was plenty of sauce--no dry "Sahara Desert" situation going on here. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. This meal absolutely delivered. Now when you place your order, the lady on the phone might not be competing for any Southern hospitality awards--but she was efficient and clearly knew what she was doing because the meal was spot on. When I stopped inside, the restaurant was also very clean on this late Saturday afternoon, which is always a great sign. Maybe I've been hanging with the wrong crowd because nobody has ever mentioned China No 1 to me. Their loss. Turns out the best Chinese takeout in Northport has been hiding in plain sight for years... and the only mystery left is why I waited so long to try it. All these years of driving past this place... turns out the joke was on me!

We went in at 1 PM on a Saturday. There was no one eating in. There were several takeout orders while we were there. The server was friendly and very efficient. Service was fast. For an appetizer, we tried the Crab Rangoons. They were delicious. Then we both got Hot and Sour Soup. It lived up to the hot part (heat wise). It was so hot that it was still warm even after we had almost finished with our entrées. My sister got the Moo Goo Gai Pan and I got General Tao's Chicken. Both lunch specials came with an eggroll and pork fried rice. The fried rice was especially good. The portions were generous and the food was good. This is a small shop with several tables inside. Definitely give it a try if you are in this area.
