" I must say, I was underwhelmed after visiting No. 1 Restaurant. While the service was attentive, the dishes lacked a distinct flavor. The fried rice tasted bland, and the chicken didn't stand out. The only highlight was the friendly service. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll be heading back anytime soon. I'd suggest they refine their recipes to produce more robust flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my experience at No. 1 Restaurant was good! The portion sizes were generous, especially considering the affordable pricing. The only issue I faced was the food not being as hot as I expected. I enjoyed the sweet and sour chicken, but the sauce was a bit lacking. Great service and friendly staff definitely made up for it. It's not the best I’ve ever had, but I would not mind returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night, I finally visited No. 1 Restaurant after hearing so many great things. I was not disappointed! The shrimp dumplings were incredibly fresh and bursting with flavor, something that is often hard to find elsewhere. The restaurant was busy, but the staff was on top of things, which made the dining experience smooth. I will be recommending this place to all my friends without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my visit to No. 1 Restaurant did not meet the expectations set by others. I ordered the lo mein and it lacked flavor, appearing to be undercooked and bland. The service was polite but slow; I waited much longer than anticipated for my meal. I gave it another chance by trying the chicken wings, hoping for a better outcome, but they were extremely greasy and not up to standard. I will think twice before returning. It’s disappointing as I had high hopes based on good reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been going to No. 1 Restaurant for years, and it continues to impress! They have a great balance between freshness and flavor in all their dishes. Their chicken wings are hands down the best around! You can really see that they care about the food they serve. Very family-friendly, and the staff is consistently lovely. My only feedback would be to increase the seating space for better comfort! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at No. 1 Restaurant. The service was friendly, but I felt that the food missed the mark. The chicken was overcooked, rendering it dry, and didn’t blend well with the sauce. I ordered a side of fried rice, which was decent but lacked the robust flavor I was hoping for. I believe they have potential, but I hope they improve consistency in their dishes. I might try again later hoping for better results. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I enjoy dining here every so often! The menu has a great variety and we've tried many different items. Their chicken and broccoli is delicious, and their fried rice is also noteworthy! While it’s often busy, the staff manages to keep a friendly attitude which is nice to see. The restaurant feels welcoming and cozy, although it could use a refresh in decor. Still, a great spot for good Chinese food! " (*Curated Review*)
