" The delivery from China First was prompt, and the food arrived hot. I had the sesame chicken and fried rice; while the chicken could use a bit more seasoning, the rice was perfect with that lovely wok flavor. If only the chicken was as crunchy as it should be! Probably would recommend trying some other dishes next time. Overall, decent food for a takeout meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently ordered a variety of dishes for a family gathering and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. The food was bursting with flavor; the sweet and sour chicken was sweet but not overwhelmingly so. Each person at the table found something they loved. The only hiccup was a slight delay in delivery, but the staff was very helpful when I called. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to enjoy a nice Chinese meal with good portions! Best definitely reheats well for lunches too! " (*Curated Review*)

" China First is an absolute favorite! I love how fresh and tasty their dishes are. The potstickers are a must-try—they are always perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is nice, though it gets busy, showing how popular they are. The pricing is reasonable, and you really get your money's worth. I can surely recommend China First for anyone looking for delicious Asian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I genuinely enjoy China First—definitely one of the better places for Chinese in the area! Their fried dumplings are delicious, and the main courses are always satisfying. It’s difficult to pick a favorite dish because I can only say great things about everything I’ve tried. I like how they give generous portions as well. This is a go-to for family dinners out! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at China First was average. I feel like it could improve significantly. The food was ok, but some flavors felt muted. However, the staff was lovely and attentive. I might try it again if I'm in the area, but I won’t be rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited China First after hearing so much about it and while my experience wasn’t terrible, I was slightly underwhelmed. My chow mein was fresh but lacked that traditional flavor I was expecting. It’s still a decent spot if you’re looking for a quick meal, but I'd recommend sticking to the basics—fried rice and chicken dishes. The price is reasonable, but I might not make it my first choice for Asian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, I did not enjoy my experience at China First. I ordered the beef with broccoli and it tasted bland with overcooked broccoli. The service was fine, but the food did not reflect the rave reviews I heard. I may not return as there are other Asian restaurants in the area that I prefer. " (*Curated Review*)
