As tony the tiger would say...their greattttttt. Customer service is always great meals are always hearty and delicious.

Pretty fire every time we've ordered. Usually pretty quick on the service. Our favorite is the Mongolian beef, & shrimp fried rice. We did get the sweet-and-sour chicken once but it was nothing to brag about. And they always have some deals if you pay in cash. read more

I have no idea how you can serve food from this establishment. I got the orange chicken and my dad got the egg shrimp foo yung, and when I say I have never been more disappointed about Chinese food, I mean it. Firstly, what place EVER sells the sauce for orange chicken separately?? It's orange chicken, not chicken with some dipping sauce. Secondly, the "sauce" was thin as water, and tasted just like water. It was also bright red for some reason even known most orange chicken sauces are a nice dark color?? My dad's sauce was the same, no flavor and was just plain horrible. We don't go out that often, and when we do it's a special treat and is always good. This was not a treat, instead it was tournament. If you don't want to feel like you got scammed, dont go here EVER. (At least the egg roll was alright.) read more

We ordered the Crab Rangoon, Beef with Vegetables, Sesame Chicken, fried rice and regular white rice. Everything was fantastic. Fresh, not over cooked vegetables, beautiful presentation, very delicious. Rice was nice, soft and fluffy (fresh). Portions were generous, enough for a couple meals. Price is better than most Chinese places in Elgin. We've ordered from here several times and never been disappointed. Great good! read more

Took us awhile to find a good Chinese restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. Food has always been good. When we have it delivered it's usually here before the time they state. Food is always hot as well. I usually have sweet and sour chicken and hubby likes the pork egg fu young but family has eaten a number of items and always good read more

No flavor!!! Egg rolls were soggy plus messed up my order this place is not good, customer service is terrible.

Consistently excellent flavor. As opposed to many local Chinese restaurants, meals do not have greasy flavor. Polite service. Large portions. Very clean preparation area. read more

Very good. Same owner for years. Lives in community. Food generous portions. Reasonably priced. Owner is Gary and he works hard and cares about his food. Nice guy. read more

Waited way too long on a Sunday evening to order the Chinese I'd been craving all day so I was genuinely surprised when this place popped up as being still open at 9:20pm. Called and placed a takeout order and the person who took it mentioned that they were closing soon so would I please be there in 15 mins to pick up and I obliged. Although the person on the phone was very straight to the point the staff was very polite when I arrived and even gave me both chili oil and hot sauce packets when I said I wasn't sure which I would prefer. This is decent quality Chinese food for rather reasonable prices. The vegetables and shrimp in particular seemed to be really fresh. read more

No 1 China - 2. Shrimp Egg Roll shrimp with 97. Shrimp with Mixed Vegetables 35. Combination Fried Rice - Cantonese Near Me - Montgomery, Illinois

I just had No 1 China for the first time. We ordered delivery. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food at many different places. This was among the very best! Everything we had was either as good or better than the best we've had elsewhere. Portion size was good too. You won't be hungry after your meal here. Everything was hot and fresh, and delivered promptly. Thanks for a great dinner! read more

My search for local Chinese food has taken me here many times. I have hit about every place within 5 miles of my house and this on ranks #1....ish. Mason was my first pick till they sold and fell apart. Good: Food is decent. Not a fan of the fried shrimp, but everything else is pretty decent. I have had a wide array of items and would only avoid anything with shrimp. All very standard fair. Bad: calling them is impossible. I would bet their sales would go up 30-40% if they upgraded their phones. Just order online. You miss out on discounts but save frustration. They are perpetually busy. Overall this is the best in the area, but there is still room for improvement. read more

No 1 China - Menu - Cantonese Near Me - Montgomery, Illinois

Who orders sweet and sour chicken and only expects chicken and sauce?? If you go here that is all you will get. No explanation on the menu, and the picture in the wall- it is only a picture. Apparently everyone whonis allergic to green pepper, onion, tomato and pineapple have been complaining. I have been eating sweet and sour chicken ALL of my life and have never had it that way. No soy sauce or sweet and sour for egg rolls given either This is not my usual spot for chinese food and it wont be again! read more

No 1 China - Sweet and Sour chicken - Cantonese Near Me - Montgomery, Illinois

Our entire order was just thrown in the trash. The only thing reserved was the white rice. Everything was cold, tasteless, gummy, and grey. How do you even make hot and sour soup neither hot nor sour. never order from here. Number one worst ever. read more

I love this place. Everyone is always nice. Food is so good! Anytime we get delivery they always get here before the delivery time.

If I could give 0 stars I would. This was the worst customer service ever! I placed an order online through beyond menu and when I called the store to change it to delivery they were worried about a tip instead of delivering my food. I'm a server and I always give cash so for them to decline my order because of a tip thats not on the order is ridiculous. I would never order from here again. This shows you the type of people that work here. read more

Worst customer service. I went through beyond menu to place an order and accidentally placed it for takeout at 5:21 PM. I called Number 1 at 5:22 and asked for them to change it to delivery and they said they didn't want to deliver because I didn't tip them so I asked for a refund. They told me to go through BeyondMenu for a refund. So I call beyond menu at 5:28 PM and they told me that Number one china had to refund me and that they were going to call them and cancel the order. They called back at 5:33 and said that Number 1 china said the food was already done and they could not refund me mind you I already asked to cancel my order at 5:22. I was jumping through hoops for about an hour before they gave me a refund. Never will I EVER order from here or beyond menu again. You have been warned. read more

Delicious, consistent food. Jumbo shrimp fried rice is wonderful...with shrimp egg rolls, always good!

Amazing food recommend to everyone came here with my friends had a blast!!!!!!!! Good service nice and quiet

No 1 china is a great place to go for fast. Good Chinese food. You always get to have fast service but just a word of caution. Please make sure if you have any type of allergies to shellfish or peanuts please do not order as they do use these in preparing the food and it is not noted on the menu read more

There was metal in my mouth. I was eating and pulled a rather large metal shard out of my mouth. That's so messed up. That can really mess up your insides. Clearly something is not being cleaned, or cleaned properly. Also saw food sitting out in the open next to the fryer waiting for orders that should have been refrigerated. Health code standards are not being followed. I did have to report them to the health department. There's so many violations that can be so dangerous for customers. When I called them they fought me to get anything back. They didn't care at all. read more

No 1 China - The piece of metal I pulled out of my mouth - Cantonese Near Me - Montgomery, Illinois

Food was cooked quickly and ready when promised. Food tasted good. Nothing sensational but typical for Chinese takeout.

Im not sure how this place only have 2.5 stars.. they have GREAT food! I recommend to people all the time and agree!

Expect curt service. They're always busy so they ain't got time to play. Get in, get your order, get out. Best moo shu pork around.

Not good my chicken bones were black not very appealing. And sesame chicken was way too sweet couldn't even finish my food.

Dinner was good tonight! Chicken Lo Mein, good. Sesame Chicken, good. Sweet and Sour Chicken, good. Pork Eggrolls, good. Crab Rangoons, good. The only thing that was off was the Mu Shoo Pork. Honey said that they used their barbecued pork in it which was weird. He said the sauce was good and had it had regular pork in it, it would have been really good! Maybe they were out of pork...who knows. So next time we avoid the Mu Shoo pork and enjoy the other dishes that we like. Thanks so much for making dinner tonight. Tired Mom appreciates it! read more

It's a good variety on the menu. The crab rangoons were well made. The other reviews made me nervous. I'd agree with not the friendliest greeting but portion sizes were good and the food was fine, I wouldn't want to dine in though made me a little concerned about cleanliness. read more

They don't understand English & are very argumentative with people. They always mess up the orders, when we do get the food it tastes like how wet dog smells like, when we call about the wrong order & taste they pretend to only speak Chinese. We i got a charges on my credit card in China after I called about the order....my credit card company denied the charges & called me. Thanks to my credit card company I can prove it was them & make a police report for fraud. Don't buy from this place!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Food was ok at best but customer service HORRIBLE!!!!!! No utensils given when it was delivered to the hotel, didn't bring it to the room only the lobby! When I called they said you have to request utensils because it saves them money, well I recommend you don't order or eat from here HORRIBLE read more

The lady behind the counter i dont know if she is the manager was very mean to me. There was another worker a younger girl that was very nice and i feel bad that she had to work for that mean lady. I ordered chicken wings and she said they take a long time to cook and whether I wantd to switch my order to something esle. I said no its fine I can wait but she kept trying to persuade me to change my order. i said no maam im fine thank you. I cant believe how rude she was to paying customers read more

The food was NOT good. And the woman who took our order was rude and yelled at us because they didn't have our order we placed online. Then they forgot our crab rangoons and when we called to have our card reimbursed, she told us no we had to come back for the missing order. Instead of fighting, I decided to cut my losses since the other items were so gross. How good could their rangoons have been? read more

For Chinese delivery, this place is fantastic. My wife and I had a favorite place that delivered, and sadly one day, the phone just kept ringing....they closed! This was devistating. Over the course of the next couple of weeks we tried different chinese delivery places to find our replacement and gah, it was a horrible experience. Each place was disgusting. But one day, one faithful day, Number 1 China's menu was on my door. My wife and I had such a hesitation giving it a try considering that every other place that we tried before was awful. We were hungry and I didn't want to cook so we took a leap of faith. I got the orange chicken combo and my wife got the shrimp and broccoli and we split an order of pot stickers. HOLY TASTEBUDS BATMAN, WE FOUND IT! We found our go to chinese delivery place for when we are too lazy to cook! The food is delicious. The chicken was nice and spicy, crispy and tasted fresh. The fried rice was cooked very good and those pot stickers, oh those pot stickers are big mouth watering sausage encased in a cloud of dough and fried to golden brown. They are absolutely amazing. My wife said the shrimp was good, they actually give you enough to get full on, and doesn't overload you with the veggies like most crappy chinese places do. Yes, give this place a try, you will be pleased! read more

The food is terrible! Doesn't taste like Chinese food Compare to other Chinese restaurants. Food is awful. The food just thrown in the trash. What a waste of money. Never ever to order here again! read more

They get 1 star because you can't go any lower! Ordered carry out, got the sesame chicken. It was so over cooked and tough we couldn't eat it. We called to let them know and the lady was very rude and said nobody else complained so we must be lying. Lesson learned and customer lost! read more

Some of my friends say they don't eat Chinese food. I now am one of them. Very bad experience with egg foo young at this place....I will never forget it. On now to Japanese food now. read more

New to the area and this is the 1st Chinese place we have tried and oh what a disappointing experience. Food lacks flavor completely. Ordered simple dishes mostly to try them out, Chicken Fried Rice, Beef Fried Rice, a Szechwan Vegetable dish, egg rolls and crab Rangoon. Have never seen fried rice without any egg. Google fried rice recipes, they all have egg. This place used no egg in both our fried rice orders so we doubt it was a mistake. Only tasted pepper. Lots and lots of pepper. Egg rolls bland. Bland mush. No crisp to the outside at all. Were they pre-made hours before and days before, were they frozen previously? All these likely answers for what we were delivered. The Szechwan dish was also full of pepper. Can you make pepper bland? Well yes they can. This is a dish we had previously ordered at other restaurants regularly so it is familiar to us. Have never ordered a Szechwan sauce quite like this and not in a good way. Crab Rangoon was the only saving grace of the who cost of the meal we ordered. We will continue our search for a good place in our new area. read more

Took them alamost 2 hrs for deliver, I called twice and all they saying is its on its way will be there in few minutes, the second time I callef the guy hang up on me... read more

Just another run of the mill Chinese place still back to the drawing board to find a great Chinese food restaurant with takeout in Oswego Yorkville area. read more

I am really upset with the poor service..We ordered $30+ worth of food from them,and informed them that they charged us for an appetizer but didn't get it. They said they didn't charge us but we could pick up the appetizer. I go all the way back there she didn't say sorry for the inconvenience just tossed the bag and the writing on bag had "free food" on it..seems small but I did pay for it! I called back to let them know it wasn't cool to do that lady was real combative and said don't come back. So bottom line is make sure you check your order or you will get terrible treatment for asking for something you PAID FOR!..Oh and they have underage children working there as well wonder if child welfare knew that? You can't even get a star from me! Hope this review helps show how rotten these folks are read more

Perfect for family lunch or dinner .. basic Chinese food at competitive prices.. very delicious and won't leave a dent in your wallet! Came in for lunch with my friend spend 14$ with a 2$ tip! Will be coming back read more

I've been eating here for about 12+ years, and the food has come a very, very long way in my opinion! The shrimp egg rolls were their best I've ever had on Dec. 31, 2019. Also, the shrimp fried rice is on or above par with other Chinese in the area (they use bigger shrimps than most and don't skimp on them). The crab rangoons are so crunchy and fresh too. Jo-Jo is the wife & Gary is the husband, a young mid-30s couple who were in New York before Montgomery, IL. These are seriously hardworking people. Despite all these bad reviews, it's the busiest Chinese Restaurant in the entire area! I know, I've been to the others several times. For me, the Customer Service is impeccable, but maybe it's because I like them. I was there New Year's Eve 2018 too. This week the whole family & crew were pitching in. The restaurant was packed. Thank you No. 1 China for all the wonderful food all these years. Much luck & thank you for the beautiful calendar. read more
