" China One is a mixed bag! Their crab rangoon is excellent, and I’ve had good experiences with their beef dishes. I’m not as fond of the lo mein – it didn’t seem flavorful enough. The pricing is reasonable for the quality, but I’ve run into inconsistency in what comes out of the kitchen. However, the service is generally nice, and the owners often remember my name, which adds a personal touch. I’d say it warrants a four for the good moments! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had dinner at China One last night, and overall, the food was decent. The sweet and sour shrimp taste great, and they had a generous portion. My only complaint is that the egg drop soup was way too salty for my liking. Still, the service was friendly and the environment made for a pleasant meal. Although I’ve had better, I think I would still return for the convenience and decent offerings. I’m giving them a solid 3 based on my experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations due to the positive reviews but came away disappointed. While the food was ready quickly, the sesame chicken lacked flavor. I didn't experience the freshness I had hoped for. The dining area felt drab, and I personally wouldn’t suggest dining in, but perhaps it’s better for takeout. I think I’d give them a 2 for my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" My coworkers and I ordered from China One during lunch week, and I was initially excited, but the meal left a lot to be desired. The sesame chicken was tough and lacked flavor, while the rice was undercooked. It didn’t help that the delivery took longer than promised. I expected more. I’ll have to reconsider my choice next time. Two stars for effort. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was skeptical about trying China One at first. Some of my friends had mixed reviews. I ended up ordering the General Tso’s chicken and was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of the dish! The sauce was flavorful without being too sugary, and the rice paired nicely. The service was attentive. I’d rate my experience a solid 4! " (*Curated Review*)

" The convenience of ordering here is hard to beat! The food is usually ready quickly, which is its best feature. However, the flavor can be a little off, and some menu items have not been consistent. I appreciate the family feel of the place, and they seem attached to their customers. I think some improvements in the kitchen could take them to the next level. I'm giving them a 3. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time at China One, and honestly, I didn’t understand all the hype. The prices are fair, but the food didn’t match. My chicken was chewy, and the sauce had an odd taste. I appreciated the fast service, but that wasn’t enough to redeem my experience. I probably won’t be returning for a second try. I rate it a 2. " (*Curated Review*)
