No 1 Chinese

This place is under new management! Don’t sleep on it! It’s a must do. The food was hot, fresh, and tasted amazing! We ordered through DoorDash and it was still hot and amazing. Coming from China town in Washington D.C. the food is right on par with some of the best restaurants in Washington D.C.! If you had a bad experience with prior ownership give the new owner a try. I promise you it’s worth it! We had the Bourbon Chicken, General Tso’s, House Lo Mein, Crab Rangoon, Spring Rolls, Pork Egg Rolls, and Donuts.

Waited over an HOUR! for my food when they gave me a time of 15 minutes only for my order to be wrong. I was given lo mein instead of mei fun noodles. They didn't have enough chicken for my order so they gave me a free soda instead. It seems they only start putting orders together when you actually arrive and not prior leading to multiple people waiting at once. The parking is absolutely miserable here. It's right in front of a super busy street that's very unforgiving and little to no parking anywhere else. They'll tell everyone on the phone 15 minutes but when you get to the location the restaurant is full of people waiting for their food.

Best Chinese takeout in Apopka! We have lived here for a few years and somehow struggled to find good Chinese spot. We stumbled across No 1 Chinese because my daughter had a craving on a Monday. For some reason, nearly everything is closed on Mondays in Apopka, but No 1 was open so we gave it a shot. Best boneless bbq spare ribs we’ve ever had! This is now our go-to for Chinese. The food is fantastic and the staff are so friendly! Highly recommend!

I have lived in Apopka for many years and this is by far my favorite Chinese restaurant! I have never had a bad meal here and the service is always fast and friendly. I wish they still delivered. Keep in mind, they are closed on Mondays, which always seems to be the day I have a really bad craving for their food! Edit: 2/2024. They are now under new management and offer more than just Chinese food. They also have fried chicken, fish, red beans and rice, mashed potatoes, and more. Not sure how any of that is because I just get Chinese food. Their food is slightly different from the previous owners, but not in a bad way. The restaurant is cleaner and has been redesigned with a nicer counter and the huge monitors displaying the menu.

I ordered bourbon chicken which had no flavor to it. The rice was ok. My husband got general tso he said it was okay but no broccoli in it. I tried here because it showed good rating. The Chinese place by publix on rock springs road is much better.
