Always good, always fast, always cheap. A modern miracle.
best Chinese food in Athens
The food is so good! I love the General Tsos chicken. We tried the Garlic Sauce Shrimp for the first time, and the dish is so flavorful. My order was made well and packaged with care. 10/10 my favorite Chinese takeout restaurant in Athens :)

China 1 is one of the best Chinese takeout places, known for its plentiful portions and fresh ingredients. The white rice portion is larger than expected, and the restaurant seems to have a good amount of business. Although customers may have to wait a while for their order, it's due to their popularity. Some customers note that they use a bit more MSG than usual, but it's not unbearable. China 1 serves high-quality American Chinese food, comparable to places in NY, making it a must-try in Athens.
Many customers love their crab rangoons and vegetable fried rice. The hot and sour soup is praised as the best some have ever had. The chef special lo mein is also highlighted as the best, hitting the spot every time. While some find the General Tso’s chicken too sweet and not spicy, the overall experience remains positive. Delivery via DoorDash is popular, with most orders being well-received, despite the occasional off day.
