About China 1

China 1 is one of the chinese restaurants listed in Athens, Georgia. The business is registered at 2026 S Milledge Ave, Athens, GA 30605; use this page to check its hours, phone number and Google rating before you make the trip.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Athens; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Georgia are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. The most common schedule is 11 am–10 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (706) 850-7788. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is order.mealkeyway.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

With 4.1 out of 5 on Google from 324 reviews, it sits in the middle of the range for chinese restaurants in Athens. Recent reviews are the best guide.

Ordered sesame chicken combination plate and a separate order of steamed dumplings. I asked if they were thick or thin and they couldn't even tell me and acted confused. I proceeded anyway. I've purchased many brands of frozen dumplings and that's exactly what they served me! Awful dumplings with plain soy sauce. The house rice is ordered with my sesame combo was PLAIN brown rice, one tiny shrimp, and uncooked broccoli with half cooked peas and carrots?! It was awful! Zero flavor, just tastes like everything was half steamed and thrown together. Didn't even have oil on the rice like it would if it were cooked in a wok. Worst food and service ever. And my combo was 11.99 but come up to 17 bucks?!

First time eating here so I had a few questions about the menu when ordering. The cashier seemed very shy and lowering her voice but I continued to be patient. A man/cook came from the back VERY RUDELY and told me to look at the pictures if I had questions. I politely told him this was my first visit and not every menu item is pictured. He repeated “look at the pictures if you have questions”. again, very rude. Most likely won’t be returning.

The person that fix my food was sitting at the table I don’t even think he wash his hands before running in the kitchen to fix my food I ask for the lunch special lo mein noodles with mix vegetables and chicken it very little chicken in it not even 1/4 cup worth that’s how small amounts of chicken it was then they had the nerve to put vegetables rice with the noodles and chicken and charge a .$ 1.57 more to the $8.50 because I wanted vegetables in my noodles it I didn’t look at the bowl of sloppy until I got to where I was going the food was awful and warm it wasn’t even hot I will never eat there again I did call them and gave them a piece of my mind about the food and vowed to never return if you can’t cook don’t take people hard money and pretend you do, there’s was no flavor in the food period its not worth the appearance looks aweful as if it been on the steamed table for days I wouldn’t feed it to my dogs don’t waste your money you’re be very disappointed

Absolutely the worst Chinese food, I have ever had in my Life!!! Totally soggy spring rice and only sent 1, when I ordered 2. The chicken lo mein was all big cold noodles??? No chicken or any vegetables to be found! Absolutely disgusting! Don’t waste your money or time. The owner was incredibly rude and charged me twice , when I tried calling call about a 60$ and was very rude. Unbelievable!!!! And so cold. Nonedible…. How can you mess up Chicken Lo Mein and spring rolls. The Szechuan chicken was even worse!!!!

Ordered Sesame Chicken combo and was pretty happy with what I got. The chicken had good flavor, but was maybe a bit sweet. The texture was good though. The egg roll was not great. It was crunchy, but the vegetables were not very fresh, and I could definitely taste that, so I would pass next time. The fried rice was solid 7.5/10. It did its job but wasn't anything special. The restaurant looked pretty clean and my food was ready within 10 minutes. Overall a pretty average experience for this kind of thing. For the price it's not bad at all but I am going to see what other Chinese spots in Athens offer.
