" No. 1 House has long been one of my favorite local Chinese spots. The food consistently delivers on flavor, and the prices are very reasonable considering the portion sizes. My go-to is the shrimp fried rice, and it's always packed with shrimp! The only downside is that the wait times can be a bit long during peak hours, but the quality makes it worthwhile. I definitely recommend giving this place a shot if you're nearby! " (*Curated Review*)

" One of the best spots I’ve found! Their crab rangoon is to die for and their lo mein is just perfect. I can't praise the dumplings enough either; expertly crafted and flavorful. It's the perfect place for a satisfying meal. Truly grateful to have this gem nearby. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been coming to No. 1 House for years, and while I had some ups and downs with my orders, I can't deny that the food often hits the spot! Their egg rolls are crispy, packed with flavor, and not too greasy. The atmosphere inside, although simple, makes it easy to feel comfortable while waiting for takeout. I believe they are improving their service quality, which is promising. I’m willing to stick around and see how it goes. " (*Curated Review*)

" So the food was okay, but the customer service really left something to be desired. I felt like I was somewhat neglected while waiting for my order and the lady taking orders seemed disinterested. I don't usually complain, but I was expecting more based on the hype. I might reluctantly return if I ever get a craving. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for fresh and delicious Chinese food, look no further! The egg drop soup is amazing, and their chicken combo is one of the best I've had in the area. They can be slightly busy, but it’s always worth the wait. I'd come back without hesitation! " (*Curated Review*)

" No. 1 House has been my favorite for Chinese takeout. The consistency of flavors and quality is what keeps me coming back. My latest meal of chicken and broccoli was just perfect. The veggies were fresh, and they cooked the chicken to perfection. If you're near by, absolutely give this place a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not as impressed as I thought I would be. The food was average, and the staff wasn't very friendly. I guess it depends on who you talk to while you're there. Still, that could change. I might consider giving it another shot a few months down the line, but my first impression wasn’t great. " (*Curated Review*)
