I was in the mood for Chinese food and came across this spot. I called in my order of curry shrimp and fried rice. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. My food was ready and I paid and left. When I dug in, the curry shrimp was good. They were just a little stingy with the shrimp. Wish there was more. The rice was very tasty as well. All in all, I had a good experience.

I’M SO DISGUSTED. I just found a cockroach in my rice. I feel like vomiting. This is terrible!! So disappointed. I always ate this when I visited my sister, so now I ordered it for my house for the FIRST TIME and THIS?!? DIS. GUS. TING. I always spoke highly of this place, but NEVER. AGAIN. When my dad called to get his money back, the owner gave us a hard time. After arguing on the phone for over 10 mins, she finally told us that since we ordered online, we have to go through the website we ordered from to get our money back. SO disappointed!! If I could give it NO STARS, I would.

Tried place for the first time. General Tso’s chicken combo was terrible. Very dry and all the chicken was stuck together like a ball. Had to pry the chicken off eachother as there was no sauce that normally comes with a general tsos combo.

This was our favorite place to order before we moved an hour away. Once every other month we make the drive down to get China First because there is no place by us that compares to their quality. The owners are also so sweet and pleasant that they keep us coming back even after we moved.

I have been ordering food here for many years, by far one of the best Chinese food we’ve had. Staff is always friendly when you go pick up your food. What I love most is the variety and freshness of the food. Try this place out
