Went here a couple years ago and it was lousy. Tried it again a month or so ago. It was much better.

I love this place so much, they're food always arrives to me hot, they actually know how to cook and package stuff, not to mention I always get full from it. Kind service and they are patient, never been inside the actual store since I usually get deliveries, but from driving by it looks nice and comfortable enough to actually spend time with someone else. This is my go to place for Chinese food and I'm probably never gonna change that. read more

Ordered, steak & chicken teriyaki, spring rolls, egg rolls, pork lo, mein, fried rice, boneless pork ribs. The pork lo me in tasted burnt, one spring roll under cooked, beef teriyaki over cooked. The only food really good was, the rice, chicken, & egg rolls. Very disappointed. Normally their food is very good. read more

Food was very good and hot. Delivery was 30 minutes faster then there estimate. Driver very polite.

Love this spot, the staff are polite and the food is always ready in 30 minutes. I have tried almost everything off the vegetable/vegetarian section, and it's always very good... especially the general Tso's tofu. Easily one of the best Chinese takeout places in Manchester! read more

This restaurant has the best food and the staff is amazing and helpful. Never have I been disappointed with the food.

So this place is actually really amazing and I can't just leave the 2 start review that I gave them after having eaten there a few more times. I was probably too hard on them. Sure the dirty mushroom grossed me out but I'm sure that isn't their normal standard, and mistakes happen. I have ordered food from here way too many times without a single problem to make that single off experience my main impression. They have amazing food, and its always hot and fresh. If you order online, they have coupons for free stuff when you spend so much. Good stuff too. definitely worth a try read more

THIS PLACE DESERVES NO STARS first time l ordered from here..SADLY DISAPPOINTED ..What a waste of money!!!spent $70..to be delivered a bunch of crap food ..most of it bought frozen..and sold x5 its cost..l couldnt believe a chinese restaurant that would send out a bunch of FROZEN FOOD they claim to ne their own. As my friend Bill said"THE PLACE SHOULD RE-NAME IT SELF.."THE NO 2 CHINESE RESTAURANT " CAUSE THEIR FOOD "IS"((crap)) read more

Not a bad choice for Chinese take-out. Great portion sizes, average food, and pretty low prices. Ordered delivery because I had a weird craving for Americanized Chinese food (aka broccoli beef and hot & sour soup). Download the "BeyondMenu" app - its very easy and simple to place a pickup or delivery order. Delivery was prompt. I live maybe 3 miles from the place and got my food within 35-40 minutes! The hot & sour soup was not that great. It was watery and wasn't spicy or sour. Kinda like hot water with a buncha tofu and veggies. The fried stuff that it comes with was kind of stale as well. An order of chicken wings comes with 8 wings which I thought was a bargain. The scallion pancakes were just okay. Both the chicken wings and scallion pancakes were very crispy. What's awesome is you get 4 free crab rangoons with an order of at least $20. The cream cheese and crab filling is 97% cream cheese though. But that's okay, they ARE free! The beef lo mein is cheap, decent, and not too greasy. Noodles are soft and beef is tender. The beef & broccoli was pretty solid - its your standard beef & broccoli. Good flavors, well cooked broccoli, and once again...very tender beef. read more

No. 1 Chinese Restaurant - Beef lo mein. Beef & broccoli. Chicken wings. Crab Rangoon (free with $20 order). Scallion pancakes. Hot & sour soup. - Chinese Near Me - Manchester, New Hampshire

How can this place have 3 stars. It's gross . I ordered fried shrimp and they were little mini frozen breaded shrimp

Stopped there for a quick lunch today. Had the General Gao lunch special. Came with wonton soup and pork fried rice. Food was freshly cooked and piping hot! One of the least expensive lunches you can get in Manchester, and very good! No ambience, but food was hot and tasty! Large menu - will go there again. read more

Food is excellent and plentiful. Prices are great. Staff is very friendly. What is not to like! Strongly recommend read more

Highly recommend the egg foo yung.....I think it's the best I've ever had! Lo mein was also delicious. Nothing was greasy. Took a star off because I didn't care for the sauces. And honestly the food didn't need it. read more

Nice and clean compared to the last Chineese joint that was here before this one. Was approached at the register and he welcomed me to no1. Ordered the general gaos chicken with crab rangoons instead of soda and soup the lunch special. Was under 7.00 Prices are great. The signs above the register are pretty cheesy. Got a sample of the Thai tea. It was really good totally an acquired taste imagine creamy hot tea. Kinda describes it . Food: is wow amazing Chineese For a small take out place it's really good the general gaos chicken was really good had enough sauce rice was good veggies seemed fresh. For the price lunch special is a++ here Rangoons are good if you like lots of cream cheese in there The hot mustard was very good. I would totally come here again thanks for making first experience a good one. read more

It seems like a take-out place with only paper plates and styrofoam containers, which is a little off putting, but the food tasted delicious and this place had a lot of options to choose from. It's reasonably priced and as long as you don't care about the small area that the restaurant is in you'll love it! read more

One meal, four eggrolls and 4 crab rangoon for 37.00, What a bargain for cashew chicken with peanuts instead of cashews and chewy chicken. I called the restaurant and a very angry man basically told me too bad. Overpriced and apparently zero customer service. I'd rather eat cold McDonald's than eat here again. If it could be zero stars to match it would be. read more

This was absolutely the WORST chinese food I have ever had. Everything in my daily special tasted the same-blah. The sauces - duck and sweet and sour were also Terry le. Was hoping they would cover the taste of the food. not one of the 3 of us liked the food read more

This used to be our go-to when we first moved here! Then it went down hill, and FAST. First it was that the delivery guy took our pick-up order with him and we waited 20 mins for him to bring our food back. Then a few weeks later came the RAW pork pieces in my fried rice and stone cold chicken fingers and crab rangoon. I won't be coming back here until I hear something has changed. Don't waste your money. read more

Very good food. Best pork lo mein in Manchester. Always fresh and hot owners very friendly. Always done on time

The exact American Chinese food I was looking for. Not really a spot to eat at but great take out and very friendly staff.

Best crab rangoon and egg rolls out of all the Chinese restaurants around. Pork fried rice was great. Delicious General T'sos Chicken. Orange chicken was not great. Probably wouldn't order that again. My kids love their veggie lo mein. They also give you a small freebie with large orders. DO NOT SKIP those egg rolls! read more

I ordered lo mein and believe me I'm not picky I hardly ever complain but this was the most disgusting lo mein I've ever seen in my life. The pork meat was a mixture between red and gray. The shrimp was brown. The vegetables were limp and soggy and the chicken was full of big fatty pieces. Most of it ended up in the garbage read more

I ordered take out. Read some reviews on here and figured we would give it a go. This is the worst Chinese i have ever had. The rice looked like it sat for days. I actually was throwing up all night. We had the pu pu platter, pork fried rice and beef lo mein. Needless to say...NO 1...NOT. read more

True to it's name, this is my go to Chinese in Manch, and I've tried them all. I am from New York City, capital of Chinese takeout.... this moo shu is THE BEST I have ever had. Egg drop soup is pretty awesome too. Everyone that I've ordered this for has been happy. Only downside is that sometimes delivery takes a little more than an hour. read more

Good food and great service. I ordered delivery. I can't speak for the time it took. I wasn't paying much attention to the time, but I wasn't sitting there wondering where my food was. Most places that deliver to my building simply ring the buzzer and make you come meet them at the front door. Not this guy! Not sure who let him in as I was never paged, but he came in and came right to my door. The food showed up piping hot. It was as if I had just cooked it in my own kitchen and ate it right out of the pan. I have never had anything from anywhere delivered that was actually that hot. We liked just about everything except the hot and sour soup. I did like that there was a ton of substance to it. Not just a bowl of broth with one chunk of tofu and a couple pepper flakes. Unfortunately, there was not a ton of flavor. You got a little spice, but that's it. Not bad, but I would not go out of my way to order it again. The rest on the other food was good. The eggrolls and crab rangoons were big and stuffed. Generals chicken was good. Zero complaints here.I will definitely try them again! read more

This is my go-to for Chinese. The staff are very nice and the food is delicious. I appreciate that they have several vegan options available. read more

No. 1 Chinese Restaurant opened last Friday in the former Golden Roll on Queen City Ave. The place went through minimal renovation which is an order at the counter place with open kitchen and self serve table seating. I stopped in here for lunch takeout recently. I ordered the L24 Shrimp Lo Mein ($5.75) with Pork Fried Rice & Wonton Soup and Steamed (Pork) Dumplings ($5.25) and I was given a 10 percent grand opening discount. While I was waiting for my order, the owners gave me complementary hot tea and a homemade cheese stick, which was crunchy on the outside filled with hot soft mozzarella cheese inside. I would definitely order the cheese sticks on the next visit. The food was ready to go in under 10 minutes. The lo mein dish had a mix of tender shrimp (some cleaned), carrots & onions in soft noodles. The fried rice (tan) was soft and had small pieces of sweet roast pork, onions, and soybeans. The wonton (3) soup had soft wontons filled with minimal ground pork in a clear chicken broth. The steamed dumplings (8) with dumpling sauce were not the big kind, each filled with a small ball of ground pork and mainly thick firm dough shell. Anyways, the food tasted good and fresh and I would order Chinese takeout from No 1 of Manchester again! PARKING: A tight fit and may be difficult to exit left during busy traffic. read more

Crab Rangoon, Sesame Chicken, and Mongolian Beef were all pretty good. I'll be back.

This was the first time we tried No1. It was awesome!!! It's by far one of the tastiest Chinese restaurants we've tried in sometime here in Manchester. We will definitely be coming back!! Great experience. read more

Their food is pretty good! My fiancé and I ordered general tso chicken, spring rolls, shrimp and veggies, veggie chow mein, and terriaki beef. Everything tasted good. Unfortunately, we received chicken instead of shrimp with the veggies, and normally veggie chow mein has noodles but theirs is made with crispy noodles which it said at the top of the description but with fried dough like pieces which I wasn't expecting. We called the restaurant back thinking that they messed up our noodle order but were explained the difference but we still told them about the chicken mixed up. They felt badly and offered to send more, we said that wasn't necessary and they offered to add it to our next order. That was already very kind. Then the manager called and said he was sending the shrimp and noodles. This was way above and beyond and very kind. Very great management! read more

Good lo mein, and just okay fried rice. The General Tso's Chicken was standard, but probably would have tasted better if I had eaten it at the restaurant instead of doing takeout. Warning: parking lot is small and can only be accessed from Queen City heading north towards Elm. read more

Stopped in craving crab rangoon, and they certainly delivered! I would say #1 in my book for crab rangoon, and fantastic home-made hot mustard! I will definitely recommend to friends, and will be stopping in again for sure. Keep up the great work! read more

Been ordering here 3 times so far? We love the General Gau's Chicken with the Veggie fried rice. Taste good every time. All the employees there are very friendly and pleasant. Very place. Quick service as well! read more

Awesome food, great customer service. Will be a customer fo life ya herrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not great. Large portions for the price but the food was lacking. Fried rice was crunchy and undercooked, egg drop soup was thin and bland, everything was just kinda under seasoned and lacking flavor. read more

Really excellent and fresh Chinese. When we moved to the area we were recommended another local spot that was way overrated. The food was overpriced and dry. We decided to give No.1 a try since it was close by our new house. We are so glad we did! This will be our go to for Chinese. Everything is so fresh and flavorful! read more

No. 1 not a chance in hell more like 113. Oh and your location sucks like your food. To close to the rehab clinic but just close enuff to urgent care. read more

The food here is ok. Sometimes it's great and others it's so so. (Like sometimes the crab rangoons are crispy and sometimes they are soggy) Not my number one choice but it's super close by so we give them a try every once in a while to see what we get. read more

I came by to this restaurant out of curiosity because it had a grand opening. What I got was outstanding customer service. The food is amazing and very organized very very pretty. This has become my ''No 1 Place to order chinese food from in Manchester'' . The inside is very clean and very comfortable to sit and eat with family. read more

Still eating here since they opened up. Very good portion sizes. Awesome boneless spareribs, best in Manchester by far. The sesame chicken is very good, so isn't the orange chicken and general tso's chicken. Always clean and friendly staff. They deliever and usually pretty fast. read more
