Absolutely the best take-out not only in Astoria,but for my money,in all of Queens.Hearty portions,fresh ingredients,prompt delivery,and they pay attention to specific instructions.Their Mei Fee,and Chow Fun are fabulous. read more

Have tried a couple Chinese restaurants in the area and this is definitely one of the best ones. Great price, great portions, and fresh food. I highly recommend. read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Chicken with Mixed Vegetables and a wonton soup. Really good! - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Great local Chinese delivery spot. Great prices and the food was really good. I'm very picky about my hot and sour soup and theirs was definitely better than Dragon and Phoenix (another Astoria Chinese hotspot), as well as their dumplings. Their standard dishes were really good too and the portion was big. I'd rate 5-stars but the delivery took a solid 15 minutes longer than they said it would but overall I'd order again. read more

My family has been ordering from Flower Drum House for over a decade. the food always tastes amazing. we used to take out pickup but now order with delivery and the food has always been correctly sent. sometimes wish they sent more duck sauce lol very nice workers and delivery drivers read more

Only reason I'm giving this location two stars is because their food is actually pretty decent. I didn't have any issue with them at first. Last week or so I order their steamed chicken and broccoli. The container was mostly broccoli with very little chicken. Called Grubhub support to see what could be done, they told me that's it's impossible they put little chicken and refuse to give me a refund. I sent them photos and finally got a refund back. Now I ordered today to give them another chance, Took a while but I understood cause it's a pretty cold day and no one wants to go out. When I received my food finally The dumpling container was crushed. And the food was extremely cold. read more

Best chicken w broccoli around.. delivery usually comes on time .. the pricing is pretty fair too I'd say

I really love this place - it's the best Chinese food in Astoria. I'm a long-time customer. However, I ordered the fried shrimp and noticed that they do NOT devein the shrimp. I almost threw up when I bit it and was met with a black string of shrimp digestive track. PLEASE DEVEIN YOUR SHRIMP. ALL of them. Thanks! read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Shrimps are not deveined - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

We ordered takeout on Christmas Eve. The portions were generous and the General Tso's tofu was especially good. There were a solid number of vegetarian options on the menu. It arrived a little late, but it was Christmas Eve after all. read more

Glad to see they are back!!!! The takeout was soooo fresh and tasty! That sesame chicken really hit the spot; missed it so much. Highly recommend! My sisters got the shrimp and broccoli platter (not pictured) and they devoured that too & said it was really good! read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Sesame Chicken Special Platter - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

My usual go to when there's no food in the apartment and I'm waaaayyy too lazy to go food shopping. If you can remember get the chicken and broccoli cooked in garlic sauce...it's killer. This time around I went with Roast Pork Egg Foo Young and Spicy Sesame Chicken. For the lunch special it comes with two sides, not bad for $20 with tip and it was delivered within 20 min. read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Spicy Sesame Chicken, Roast Pork Egg Foo Young with two sides....The Lunch Specials Menu - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

Clean and very tasty. Always ontime never made a mistake. All their dishes are very generous and there are lots of options always if you want to customize your dish. read more

This is a very run-of-the-mill average Chinese takeout joint. You get your stir-fry meat with vegetables and rice, fried noodles, or General Tso's chicken you can leave it the way it is or you can combine it with the hot and sour soup, egg drop soup, wonton soup and a Coke. Pretty sure if you wanted chicken wings and french fries as well you can have that! I've had their chicken with garlic sauce. It's stir fried chicken breast meat with various vegetables in a brown sweet glaze sauce served with white rice. It tastes a little sweet, had a small kick to it, overall it was fine. I've also ordered the Singapore mei fun which I thought was quite tasty. The fried noodles had a little curry flavor, the shrimp Was Juicy, not Bland at all! I would order this again. The staff is okay, they are not rude, the place isn't dirty and it's reasonably priced. I do have to say that I was disappointed when I noticed the sign here saying you get 10% off your order if you give a 5-star review on Yelp. This is certainly not a 5 star takeout joint. Perhaps if they had a selection of dishes that they excelled at or were unique to this neighborhood and sold it for a lunch special, had very courteous and hospitable staff, this might be worthy of a 5-star review. read more

Ordered here a few times already, haven't had a bad experience yet. Food arrived hot and tasted great. The location itself is a bit dive but, for the price, it's a good experience. read more

Been my go-to spot for over four years now. Never been disappointed and I've ordered a bunch of different dishes. I have to bring attention to the house special dumplings though - they are top tier. read more

Called for delivery, small chicken with brocolli, two spring rolls. Order arrived, no spring rolls. Sent delivery person back with food. Called the restaurant to them know of the error. Could barely get a word in edgewise, had to keep telling her to let me finish speaking, but she wouldn't stop screamingat me about $3 more. Asked for a fresh order with spring rolls. She kept yelling at me telling me it would be $3 more. I tried to tell her that was fine, but I wanted a fresh order because I wanted the entire order together, but she wouldn't let me speak. I realize these jobs are high pressure, but she was over the top argumentative and rude. Called back to cancel the order. Unbelievable . read more

It's my frist time to have dinner in their shop, the beef fried rice tasted good, next time I will come back. read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

This place is my go to for Chinese takeout. The Chinese takeaway in Ireland is far superior to what's on offer here in the US but this place really holds it own. Its far ahead of the competition here in Astoria. Delivery never takes long either. read more

So vegetables aren't as fresh and I see that the quality went down a bit. Still a solid Chinese take out for the price.

Finally! A place in Astoria that had decent Chinese food! Everything was delicious! Fresh restaurant quality food! Great job!

Warning - chow mein here is not chow mein. They don't put noodles. Other than that, food was okay.

Beat Chinese food in Astoria. Beef and broccoli, ribs, fried wontons, egg roll all really good and good sized portions.

Suffice it to say that they didn't do the basics very well. Friendly staff, bland food.

Last night my friends and I ordered dinner for delivery. We ordered a variety of dishes that should have had very different flavors. Not one of the dishes was good. And all of the dishes tasted like they had the same sauce in them. Which was brown, sweet and not great. It was awful! How come you can't return food and get your money back? read more

I'm not even gonna lie, I have a love hate relationship with this place, more love though. The food is good most of the time and if it's not good it's decent. I have a tendency to go to the deli next door and grab a terrible expensive salad to eat with my Chinese food....which in hind sight is the reason my wallet screams bloody murder. I personally recommend the chicken and broccoli or the Hawaiian chicken. read more

This is our default Chinese food spot! Great Chinese spot near the Ditmars train station that consistently serves large Chinese American meals. The vegetables and meat are always fresh and they add much more toppings than other Chinese takeout spots I've been to before. read more

The food was good, i had chicken sesame and egg rolls and good price! Only bad service from the woman in front

No. 1 Flower Drum House is definitely a Chinese option in Astoria that I would recommend! I order from this place way too much. It's by no means a run-of-the-mill, average Chinese takeout joint and their wontons have never come close to breaking my teeth, but if you have sensitive teeth consider their Roast Pork Egg Roll. It's so soft and luscious, you barely have to chew it, it just melts right in your mouth!! read more

Don't do it. They are more expensive than other places, the food twas terrible. I took 3 bites and threw the whole meal in the trash outside in the garbage. They must have used old oil because it had a odor to it that did not smell quite right. The fried wontons were soft almost soggy. The sweet and sour chicken had hardly any chicken. Will never go there again. read more

First time ordering in. Busy takeout business with a few tables if you want to eat in. Prices are reasonable and I'm sure the taste will be great. read more

No 1 Flower Drum House - Quick and clean. Good place to grab and go or order delivery - Chinese Near Me - Astoria, New York

It's your regular Chinese take out spot. What's different is that they're open later, which makes them convenient, they're quick on deliveries. Good general toes (lol) and sesame chicken, soups are good. Solid spot, I would recommend. read more

Seafood special soup was terrible. Watery broth with bad imitation crab. Shrimp and scallops in the soup were good. Shrimp w garlic sauce was mediocre. Tastes like sauce came out of a bottle. read more

This place had a great lunch special very good price and delicious food. The service was fast and I appreciate that it was clean inside. I will go back again. read more

Mediocre. They over fried my dried wontons. Almost broke my teeth. Couldn't eat them.

Why do I keep doing this to myself? I gave them two more chances the food arrives luke warm again and has to be microwaved every time. I ordered one side thing they deliver another. Why have something on the menu and you don't make it??? Beef strips look like cat meat, my Wife is going to be stressed out she loves cats. Never again. And there is no shrimp in the shrimp egg roll!!!!!! read more

Love the food here. Come here often. Always get the chicken broccoli and fried veggie dumplings. Seriously delicious. Andy always hooks it up for me. They really are no. 1! Lol read more

Me and my family have been ordering delicious food from here for at least 20 years. It's mostly take but I know there are a couple of tables there if you want to have a fast bite. This is not a suit and tie eat out restaurant, it is a typical Chinese take out. The the people are nice, the food is great, the portions are excellent, the wait time for deliveries is good...give them a try. Oh, I forgot to say that they usually give us soda with our order. read more

I've ordered lo mein and egg rolls here for months, it was always great and well priced. No complaints on those items. However, recently I ordered general tso's chicken and it was awful. It was so deep fried, that it was hard as rock. The sauce was also really sweet and there were barely any broccoli, the pieces that were there were TINY. Do not order chicken from here. read more

Best Chineese food hands down in Astoria always fresh and delivery time is fast. Great flavor and taste to the Sesame chicken. Also recommend the Crab Rangoon and steamed dumplings. read more

My favorite Chinese restaurant in the area! Get the sesame chicken !! Really like the combination platters too. Great value. read more

The food is OK. Portions are a little small for what you pay (I judge portion and price of Chinese take out very differently than I do from other places) but it's not bad. read more
