This place is a small local take-out spot everything is made fresh, quickly and it’s delicious consistently!

Excellent food, fast & great portions! We have been ordering from # 1 Taste for over 3 years now. The food has always been excellent. Don’t let the small storefront dissuade you from going in. The staff is friendly and your stomach will surely agree. We recommend the General’s chicken and “family for four”.

The worst chinese food I’ve ever had. Absolutely no flavor whatsoever. I gave them 2 tries, each time they forgot sauces, gave overcooked, under seasoned food. Not worth saving a few bucks to have terrible food, ultimately that still makes it a loss.

Number One has the best Chinese take out anywhere. They have quality, delicious food, and they know exactly how to make what I like. I wish they had multiple locations, that’s how much I love this place. Their combination platters are a great deal, especially if you can get the lunch combo.

If you’re looking for quality chinese food in Melrose, and want to support small business, I highly recommend this spot. Hidden gem that lives up to its accolades. Note: best for take out/delivery.
