No. 1 Chinese — Restaurant in Matawan

I've been eating at No. 1 for years, I'd say close to 20 years now. The food is delicious and is one of the best. But it's not, taxing your customers almost double the price now and raising the prices every month ever since covid, the best. I get that prices went up everywhere. But here it seems prices went up and the food portions stayed the same and some even went down. I'll be lucky if my $9 boneless spare ribs lunch special even has enough meat and rice like it did 2-3 year ago, back when it was still a reasonable $5.50-$6. They'd fill up the tray, now it's half the portion of what they used to give. The pork egg rolls? More like cabbage rolls with pork bits. They used to have actual chunks of pork and now it's mainly just cabbage with the smallest bits of pork you've ever seen. Not even an ant would get full from those small bits. Even Ming's Garden, the absolute worst Chinese place in town, gives better portions. As does Golden Dragon and both of these places have lower prices and have been steady with the rising prices. Unlike No. 1 who's Chinese greed finally caught up to them. While I love the food and will continue to eat there, they need to know that customers notice small changes like this.

I just moved to the Aberdeen Area in June of 2013 from Middletown and I was missing the chinese restaurant in my old neighborhood until I found No One Chinese food. The Food is superb and they delivery your food hot and fast. No complaints, Except for the ONE DOLLAR GASOLINE CHARGE. I am pretty much across the street.

I had to downgrade their review as the last time I had my food delivered, the delivery guy requested a tip. Maybe he should learn how to read the receipt, as I ordered online and added the tip in. In my opinion, it's very unprofessional to expect a tip and ignorant to ask for one. Will highly consider ordering from the Sultan Wok who is a block away.

I updated my review today as my past two meals were...

I placed an order at 5:26pm and didn't receive my food delivery until 6:17pm. I waited almost an hour for food from a restaurant 10 min from my house. The pricing was ok but for what I received, I wasn't happy at all. There are a ton of Chinese food places in the area and I liked that they were the only one that delivers AND I could place an online order. It wasn't worth it. I always order sesame chicken from any Chinese food place and this was the worst I've had. The sauce was very thick and the rice was subpar. I was excited because I was very hungry but I waited an hour and spent $20 I didn't really have to spend and I felt I...
