Yes, this is not far from my home and the chicken egg foo young is the best. The food is always fresh and I would recommend this restaurant if you are a true chinese food lover. My husband had the sweet and sour chicken and he said it's number one on his list. The line smight be long but it's worth the wait.

the best Chinese food i have ever had. i have come to this place all my life and no other Chinese restaurant ever comes close. the food is fresh, and the portions are very generous. i usually get the sesame chicken with fried rice, and i LOVE the sauce that they use on the chicken. depending on where you order from, sesame chicken can be a hit or miss but this place always gets it right! i also recommend the almond chicken or sweet and sour chicken. everything i have had here is great! there is always a long wait whether or not you order ahead, but that just means the food is being freshly prepared and not sitting under a heat lamp. i wish all Chinese restaurants tasted like number one!

There are a number of Number One Chinese Restaurants in Detroit. I have only been to this one. I don't even know if the same person owns them all. All I know is if you want good Chinese food go to this one. It's located in the Warren Conner Shopping Center. The food is excellent and cheap. Who said cheap food can't be good?. That being said why didn't I give it 5 stars? Because they are going to mess up your order. I didn't say they might mess up your order. I mean when you get home with your order it will be wrong. Not once but every single time you go there. I discovered hot and sour soup because they messed up my order and gave me hot and sour instead of egg drop. But I loved it and that's all I ever order now. So before you leave with your food make sure you have what you ordered. However, you probably won't be disappointed with whatever you end up with even if it's not what you ordered. You might discover a new dish that you probably would have never tried. So take a chance and go. BTW it's strictly carry out. There are a few chairs but those are for the people waiting to get their order right...:-)
