Tried the vegetable lo mein and the crab Rangoon and both were just OK not the best I've had would still go back if I was craving Chinese food, but would prefer a different location. The person who answered the phone was also a bit rude when they answered. Was very hard to heard the other person speak on the phone. read more

Solid Chinese takeout spot in Weehawken! We order from No 1 Chinese a lot, maybe once every two weeks. The food is always decent and consistent, service is usually fast, and prices are kind to the wallet. It's not going to rival some of the restaurants you'd find in Chinatown or Flushing, but it's the best option in the area. We usually get the same standard fare (some combo of: chicken with broccoli, wonton soup, veggie lo mein, pork with mixed veggies, General Tso's chicken) and we find that when we have a hankering for Chinese food, it gives us our fix. read more

Let's start off with the food, the lo mein here is always good. And also the spareribs are flavorful. The portions are big for the price. in the menu is expensive vast and full of options. The food comes out fast and the cashier is nice. The one has a small interior you still fell welcomed. Also the prices are small. You have to visit the small shop, because I guarantee you will have a great experience. read more

It's to go Chinese. It's pretty close. Nothing crazy. Not bad either. Had the Mandarin chicken and was pretty good.

Yes, it's Christmas Day, but somebody has to help keep the gears of capitalism grinding on while others more fortunate (and wealthy) are able to enjoy feasting with their friends and family in the comfort of their own homes, opening presents, watching football games (is anyone actually watching "The Yule Log?"), interacting with loved ones, drinking that "special" Christmas Egg Nog (I used to drink the "Mr. Boston" brand back in my drinking days). In Hoboken, that thankless, onerous duty falls to at least some members of the "notorious" (actually, no one's ever heard of us, but humor me...) Lunchbox Mafia. Given the fact that it's Christmas Day, our choices for take-out delivery are limited to slim and none. In other words, the Chinese restaurants in the area are cleaning up, and we're among their willing victims. In order to keep things interesting, we've been ordering from different Chinese restaurants when that's the cuisine we want. "No 1" has proven itself to be pretty good. The price is right, the delivery is fairly quick, the food is generally pretty decent (their egg rolls are less than stellar, but if you cover them with enough mustard, they taste grand). My first impulse in writing this review was to give this place a not-so-great rating, based on what happened today. I'm working with "Frankie Five Angels" (Dwight). The Godfather of Lunch himself (Chuck) is due in later. He told me to order him chicken and broccoli when we ordered, and he'll eat it when he arrives. So we did. I decided to treat myself and ordered the "Happy Family." Dwight ordered chicken with mixed vegetables. And we ordered chicken and broccoli for the Don. As usual, delivery was quick; the delivery guy was friendly and cheerful. The problem was, looking through the plastic lids of the dishes we ordered, everything looked the same. I put aside the Godfather's dish, handed Dwight what I thought was his, and took what I thought was mine over to my desk. Those grinding gears of capitalism slowed down to a near halt as we prepared for lunch. One has to have one's priorities in order, after all. I liked what I had, but as I'm eating, I notice there's no shrimp, no beef, no scallops, no pork. I look over at Dwight. "I think they gave me the wrong order. All I have in here is chicken and mushrooms. It's good, but this ain't Happy Family. Ain't even Manson Family." (Ha Ha; that's my version of "holiday cheer"). Dwight calls the restaurant back, indignant. Then he looks through what he's been eating, and comes up with a healthy sized shrimp. And another. And Dwight is allergic to shrimp. Oh, oh. In the Lunchbox Mafia hierarchy, I like to refer to myself as "Tom Hagen," because of my Irish-German ethnicity; not because I'm particularly smart or observant. I almost wiped out Frankie Five Angels with the shrimp he can't eat. God forbid I had mistakenly given the Godfather of Lunch my Happy Family; he's Muslim and eating pork is an "infamnia." I could well have ended up sleeping with the fishes. If I have an objective criticism to make about the restaurant itself, the dishes should maybe be more clearly marked when it's a multiple order, as ours invariably are. Even when the plastic lids are peeled back, one dish looks awfully similar to the other one(s). Other than that, though, it's a good Chinese restaurant, fairly priced. When I ask that they make their dishes without MSG, they actually pay attention to me. I've yet to get migraines from eating here. Unfortunately, because of my own stupidity and short-sightedness, I've been demoted from "Tom Hagen" status to "Paulie Gatto" status. Ah, well... (Dwight may have actually eaten one of those shrimps; his lips are "tingling" with allergic reaction and I'm waiting to see if I have to call 911. He's a good friend, but he isn't getting mouth-to-mouth resuscitation from me. 911 it'll have to be.) read more

Delicious and worth every penny! have ordered several times and would recommend to anyone looking for delicious Chinese in the area!

I just moved to the neighborhood and was hoping to find a new go to Chinese spot... u fortunately this will not be it. I give it two stars because the fried rice is decent and the little kid taking orders at the register was cool. Other than that, the chicken is way too chewy and doesn't seem to be cooked through enough. Also, they had a guy mopping the floor while simultaneously filling up containers with rice. He never once thought about washing his hands as he went from wringing out the mop to serving the rice container and using his bare hands to press the rice down. I give this place a shot and wanted to love it but it just isn't for me. Fried Pork Dumplings - decent flavor and sauce but the meat inside was a bit chewy for my taste. read more

Solid neighborhood Chinese place been going for years. The same family has run forever. Glad thy made it through pandemic. We order 2-3 times a month sometime more. Big fans of hot and sour soup, all the spicy chicken dishes, shrimp Mei Fun, Fried chicken cutlets, ribs. They are very close to us so food is always super fast delivery and piping hot. Sometimes I walk over but I like the delivery people so much I feel like I'm helping them out with the tip! All the delivery people are super nice and always smiling. Whether they walk or bike it, still fast. Ordering tonight! read more

It's an A-ok Chinese restaurant... my brown rice tastes a little old. Other than that, everyone from the business orders there. So, nothing spectacular. Typical. read more

I used to really enjoy the food here. The last two times I have order from here left a lot to be desired. Maybe we ordered the wrong things but, it seemed to be lacking flavor. read more

This is the only place i order out from. By far the best tasting and cleanest of the Chinese restaurants in this area (mid-Union City/Weehawken). read more

Best Chinese food in the area! Lightening fast delivery. The delivery driver, Vincent, is wonderful.

I love this place. I pretty much always get the same thing each time and it never disappoints. Their general Tso is always so crunchy and everything is seasoned well. Best thing is they're super close so delivery is always under 30 min read more

Good variety, reasonable prices, delivery available, excellent steamed vegetables and spring rolls.

No frills strait to the point excellent Chinese food.

Sesame chicken and pork Lo Mein are REALLY good. I used to get food from here years, moved from the area, came back and started ordering again. Clean, and good so far. read more

Not as good as it can be- They charge a little more and I do not mind but Please Give Quality especially when you know Somethings not correct. Just surprises me because to me it is all about the quality! My Apologies but I just call it like I see and eat it... read more

Food is always delicious and made fast! It has a ton of options and I order here about 2 times a month.

Disappointed. All the reviews said they have great sesame chicken but got this for the first time the other day since I just moved to the area and the sesame chicken was NOT good. Lots of... chewy, crunchy in the wrong way pieces, with zero white meat. The "fried" rice also was not great, it's just yellow rice with some onions and pork in it. The fried pork dumplings weren't bad. But for now, it seems like my search for my staple Chinese food in the area continues. read more

Great vegetable fried rice and vegetable egg rolls. I can't speak to their other entrees.

Have been ordering takeout from them since the past 5 years, food is always great hot tasty and on time. Prices are always good for the quality and cook the best shrimp dumplings I've tried so far! read more

This is our go to Chinese take out/delivery place. Service is fast. Food is tasty and solid. Nothing fancy. Dumplings are meaty and many! Pepper steak, sweet and sour pork, fried rice and many other basic dishes come in small and large sizes. The small is a pint and is plenty for one person. Get a free can of soda with minimum order. They lunch and dinner specials. My only quibble is that they don't have Chinese broccoli, black mushrooms or boy choy.... but you can't beat the taste and the price! Haven't been disappointed yet! read more

Since I moved to Weehawken 2 years ago, this has been my go-to Chinese place. I typically always get the boneless spare ribs and the sesame chicken and haven't been disappointed by either. Heaping portions at a great price. However, I did try their Chicken Pad Thai which wasn't great. Their honey chicken was one of the most delicious items I've eaten...but the second time I ordered it, the sauce was watery and not great. read more

Best sesame chicken ever according to my daughter. That's a great endorsement from someone who would probably eat Chinese everyday and has tried a lot. read more

This Chinese takeout provides very good service.... chicken wings and french fries were my favorite at this place..... read more

Literally the only Chinese take out place I've been to that doesn't make me feel sick, is always fresh, and doesn't overdo it on the oil. We love their veggie dishes, noodles, and sesame chicken. Also free can or liter of soda depending on how much you spend. Very nice owners and convenient location. read more

Fairly quick service. Delivery can sometimes be slow but that's to be expected when the restaurant gets so busy. Prices are good and food is very good in my opinion (for takeout). My roommates and I ate here almost every night while the power was out for Sandy. read more

I used to order from here ALL the time, until I found tiny fruit flies or baby roaches in my garlic chicken platter not just one either...so make sure you check your food! read more

Horrible. Food has no flavor. Their so cheap with adding broccoli but they add so much rice. They are also very cold and not friendly

Loved this place. Wonton soup n egg rolls were great. They seem to have new management. Different workers lately. Food isn't as good as before. Still better then others in the area. Have Fun read more

I was so pleasantly surprised. I took a risk and ordered dumplings and....pad thai. Not a traditional chinese dish, but let me tell you. Their pad thai was so amazing and the portion was huge!!!! This served me for 3 meals and it was just a delicious reheated as when I first received it. This will definitely become a new go to for me and I can't wait to try more dishes. read more

For the price, this place isn't bad. Standard fare Chinese, service is fast and a good deal considering the limited Chinese options in the area. The soups are very good but the entrees I've had better from similar places. The kung pao chicken was deep fried and not stir fried- I thought this was strange. Moo shu tofu lacked flavor but the portion was generous. I'll likely go back but will try different dishes. read more

Not that good, wok dishes too oily. BEWARE of anything fried, bad oily tasting egg rolls. thew out after 1 bite YUCK!

I've been ordering here for for over a decade and haven't had a bad dish yet. Best part, they're always amenable to accommodate any special request. What more can you ask for? read more

Love this place, fast delivery, really good steamed pork dumplings(do it), and affordable. Why no order online option? Go on seamless / grubhub no. 1 :) that's my only advice read more

I order from here all the time and I love the food, but the horrendous customer service I received today was the worst I've ever experienced. I ordered food to my apartment and one item was wrong which has happened before, but minor things like wrong soda or soup or I got an egg roll instead of the soup I ordered. I never complained because I like the food. Today they gave me spare ribs and I ordered boneless spare ribs so I called back to see if they could exchange the wrong item and thought it would be no big deal, any easy swap. The person working the desk refused saying he wasn't going to do anything and that I ordered the wrong thing which I didn't. I was trying to talk it out and he hung up the phone on me. I called back and he proceeded to raise his voice, blame me and when I said I was a regular he said he didn't care at all and I don't have to order from them anymore. read more

$6 for a complete meal brought to your door in 20 minutes? Pretty great. When I give this place 4 stars, don't misunderstand that it's some breakthrough amazing restaurant. It just means, for the category they're in, they do it well. They have healthy options like steamed chicken and mixed veggies for people who aren't a fan of MSG and a pound of salt. They can also swap out rice for brown rice. They sell some basic American style dishes, but I've never tried them. If you need a high quality meal, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a basic quick dish at a low price, this is the place to go. read more

Tasted ok the first time, but less than ok on the 2nd and last try. If you're looking for good chinese food for delivery in the area, try Panda House. read more

I have been going to this place for about 2 years now. Their service is quick and their food is standard Chinese take out.
