No.1 China Restaurant

Meals were delicious - service a bit “off-hand”.

This place feels a lot more authentic than a lot of other Chinese restaurants I've dined at. It's very simple in terms of the furnishings - nothing flash, but the food was really nice. Best sweet & sour pork I've ever had! The beef & leek dish is also beautiful. Give this place a try - it's really nice, and using First Table, our meal was crazy cheap considering how much we ordered.

Very good as usual.Thank you.

This restaurant was a real surprise - 5 star food - would be incredible for a family function or gathering for a large group of people - will absolutely be back - food was really impressive - everyone from Miss 10 to the rest of us really enjoyed it. If in Taupo give it a try - you won't be disappointed.

We loved the setting and the ambience. We ordered the duck, pork belly, noodles and rice. They were huge portions and very enjoyable. We will be visiting again soon Thank you.

We enjoyed our meal

Our first experience at no.1 China taupo was amazing the food was full of flavour there were options that my kids could also eat we had t different dishes and the food was well worth the money using first table thanks .. we will definatly be dining at this restaurant again

Very good service and the free WiFi saved us from having screaming kids lol

Awesome service, were a great help in understanding the menu. Was 100% authentic.

The food was amazing ,the fried shrimp is to die for .
Will definitly go again

Good food and service.Very enjoyable.

Food lovely and hot. Beautiful atmosphere and staff were friendly and most helpful when it came to portions to order for two

Enjoyed ourselves no complaints

The food was very nice and fresh, not like the usual at takeaway shops. Service was good. Definitely recommend.

Food what great customer service was also.. Thank you

Hugh portions and good service

Food came quickly and was hot. Great flavours and freshness. My only request is that they have a better description of what is in each dish (rather then just a photo). That way it is easier to choose if you have dietary requirements.
Well done though team.

Wait time was 10-15mins max

Fantastic food!!! Fantastic service! Will definitely be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at the restaurant. The food was sublime and the atmosphere was great! We will be back

Great attention!! Perfect food!! In is excellent

First-time experience and all 4 of us found the service and the dining excellent - well done.

Very welcoming, we we're able to alter our booking for 2 to 4. Service was prompt and food was delicious.

Excellent food and service.

We have dined here a lot before and always the food is excellent, real Chinese food not like others where the bulk it out with cauliflower & broccoli which isn’t really correct.
We will of course be back it’s becoming our Sunday night ritual :-)

Would recommend sundays for lunch, it was lovely. Thank you so much!

Very friendly staff, and the 5 dishes we ordered from the extensive menu were fabulous. Lemon Chicken was one of the best we’ve ever tasted. We will definitely be back.

Good selection of dishes avaliable

It was an impressive experience in this quality restaurant with nice service. Definitely we will come back.

Delish.. will defiantly go back..

Food was wonderful. Best Chinese we have had for ages.

We were the 1st to arrive, but very soon other patrons came along to fill most tables in the central area, a clear sign that it is a popular place. The food came in a reasonable time and was very tasty. We shared the dishes as each arrived. A very enjoyable experience!

just we experience your waitress dont speak well English everything is good

The food was delicious, we could not find fault in our dining experience, best Chinese food in Taupo ... More people should dine here, and the staff are very lovely ...

Always enjoy the food and make a point of trying something new as well as our all time favourite crispy pork. Unfortunately the heating was not switched on so we ate dinner wearing our coats. Other diners were sitting with puffer jackets and beanies on. We kept asking for the heat to be switched on and then turned up but it would have taken quite a while to heat the venue. We finished up in 45min to get home and warm up.

Lovely evening - Food was beautiful. Some Chinese beers/wines would be nice to see added at some stage. Thank you.

Very pleasant night staff very freindly food very good choice to choose from. Will go again

Great dining experience, some different tasty dishes

Food was delicious and quite fast staff were friendly altho a few options werent available when we went which was a but disappointing.

Absolutely delicious authentic Chinese dishes. I ordered a second serving of shaumai, coz it was so good!

Definitely a must visit in Taupo!

Good food

Great place on Taupo lake

Great service but food disappointed

Food was great. Definitely a sharing style experience as food came out one plate at a time. Not sure if that was intentional but we enjoyed it. Would go back again.

The staff were very friendly and the food came out fast. We were really impressed with the food it was fresh and delicious and really authentic. Would definitely go back

good service and food

Very genuine great Chinese Food, with lovely service from the staff. Nice ambiance. Highly recommend if you want to try dishes from other than your local Chinese takeaway.
