Found a tooth/bone in food! I do not write Unilocal reviews regularly but appreciate the site to keep me informed on local restaurants. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. This past Tuesday we ordered vegetable egg foo young, pepper steak an General Tao’s Tofu. All the dishes were acceptable and good except the General Tao’s did not taste like most places but it was edible. As we were eating, my daughter said«Eww, I just bit something hard in my egg foo young.» When she took it out it looked like a bad tooth or a bone shaped like a tooth. We immediately threw all our food away. This has NEVER happened to us. I tried to call the restaurant to let them know what happen and I did not want anything just to let them know we will NEVER eat at their establishment and to make sure they practice sanitary health department rules. When I called I asked to speak to a manager and the woman said«busy right now, can’t talk» and hung up. My husband said obviously they are not a professional establishment, just write a Unilocal review and let it go. Please think twice before eating at this restaurant. Thanks

They used to be the best around, but it breaks my heart to say they have declined over the past year. Portions are getting smaller to the point where the containers aren’t full over the past few trips. General Tso’s has small pieces of chicken that are dry with almost all breading. We were the only order at the time of pickup this last time and items were left out. I will give them another chance, but it’s going to be about 6 months… I’m hopeful they can turn it around(PLEASE — don’t sacrifice your quality for a couple dollars… It will lose your loyal customer base!)

Pros: Fast service Standard variety of Americanized dishes Friendly staff Cons: Forgettable food I ordered the General Tso’s Chicken combination plate(which comes with pork fried rice and a pork egg roll). Standard American… I know. I also added on an order of the crab rangoon. The General Tso’s Chicken was meh. I wasn’t impressed, but it was good enough that I ate it. The pork egg roll was a standard egg roll and edible as well. The pork fried rice I would definitely never order again. I took about 5 bites of it and decided that it just wasn’t worth choking down. I ate the crab rangoon’s as well, but won’t order them again either. 50% of my order I deemed I would order again if I chose to go here. 25% of my order I deemed inedible/not worth suffering through. They met my expectations for a strip mall suburbanite Chinese place. Don’t go in expecting anything amazing and you’ll be fine. It’s a step above frozen, boxed Chinese food.

Every now and then, you just crave Chinese take-out even though you know it’s not good for you. Well, if that’s your situation, #1 China is a good place to go. It’s just your typical Chinese menu that you see just about everywhere. I’ve tried their Shrimp Lo Mein and their General Tso’s. We liked their Lo Mein a lot, but their General Tso’s was just okay. I did appreciate that they asked when I was going to pick it up so that it wouldn’t be sitting around too long. Chinese food is tossed together so quickly that sometimes it’s cold by the time I make it there. Prices were on par with just about every other place but service is as good as it gets for a take-out joint. I’d like to mention that although Unilocal has this place listed as «One China» it actually says #1 China on the storefront.

I’m new in town and had a craving for Chinese food. Did a little Google search and this little gem popped up. This is a family-owned restaurant with great food and amazing service. Got the lunch special of Mongolian beef with pork fried rice and for an extra $ 0.50 they included an egg roll. They food was all cooked the moment I ordered. By the time I got home it was still pipping hot! And the portions were so big I could only eat half! For less than $ 7.00 I have 2 meals. Love it!

This is the best takeout Chinese food that I’ve found in the area. The chicken and broccoli is my go to dish, and their sauce is the best I’ve had for takeout. Everything is very fresh and cooked to order. You can asked for plain friend rice with any dish as well if you don’t want the standard white rice. The only problem I’ve ever had was them not hearing my order correctly and making the wrong thing when I’ve called on the phone. I’ve also noticed they don’t always ask for my name if I call so maybe that has something to do with it as well. A lot of times now, I’ll just go in to order, shop at harris teeter while they cook, and then pick it up when my shopping is done instead of calling over the phone.

Not great food or service, so I would only go there if I was in a rush and I had to have Chinese. In other words, go somewhere else.

Stopped here for quick takeout. They have a variety of dinner specials that are reasonably priced. The chicken was tasty and the egg rolls were magnificent! The rice was ok but nothing special… the fried wonton appetizer was not good at all! Definitely stick to just the dinner specials! Although it was ok, I can’t say that it’d be worth going to again.

We get food from here every month. It is by far the best Chinese takeout around. We could drive 10 – 15 miles and get better, but not worth the difference. The people who work there are really nice. The food is not overly greasy and has fresh flavor. It appears to be cooked to order. The kids are not crazy about it and there is no Kids Menu. But they will eat the rice and something from home. I get the veggie tofu, not fried tofu. It’s nice that have a choice. Tonight I am trying the #49 mei fun. We’ll see!

The best take out Chinese in Apex! Wish they delivered but when I crave Chinese, this is the place to get it. Best Moo Shu Pork and the steamed dumplings are very tasty!

I’ve tried the rest in the area and One China is the best.
