If you are ever passing through Lakeland, GA you need to make sure you plan a stop at China 1. They are very polite and make sure you are well taken care of from start to finish. The restaurant has plenty of space for dine in and it is always very clean. Easy to get in and out and back on the road or home. you can call in your order or stop in and place it.

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS, food was old and odd tasting. The lemon pepper wings were old and greasy in some type of oil, sesame chicken was bright red, tastes like fruit punch and is greasy. The best thing that we got was rice and the fries and the fries were soiled as soon as the touched that oil in the bottom of they tray the wings were in, but AVOID HERE AT ALL COSTS. good to say I will NEVER be back

I used to like this place. As of 6 months ago the place has become TERRIBLE. General TSO’s was hard and chewy. I couldn’t even eat it. The rice tasted as if it say in the pan for 20 minutes and it wasn’t fluffy or able to be eaten with chopsticks. I am sorry but not sorry. I am personally glad I left the state. I recently ate at a place called Hong Kong in Florida and it has restored my faith in American-Chinese food.

The people that own this place are extremely nice and the food has always been delicious. A short hop, skip and a jump instead of traveling all the way to Valdosta. Our go to place for Chinese food. ❤️❤️

Best restaurant in town. The operator is a nice, hard working woman. The food is delicious and they will remember you. If you’re craving American/Chinese cuisine – China 1 is the best.

We have lived in Lakeland for 20 years and have got Chinese take out from this restaurant since they have opened. The family owned business has not changed and food is great.

Upon moving to Georgia 3 years ago from New York I have had a hard time finding good Chinese food. This place is by far the best Chinese I have had in Georgia so far. In addition to the food their homemade sweet tea hits the spot as well.

I visited this establishment about 2 days ago after visiting the majestic “Banks Lake Nature Preserve” in Lakeland Georgia. My girlfriend told me that the place had been open for twenty years, so I figured, why not? Big mistake on my behalf! Being my first time there, I inquired of the owner, what was their specialty? The female Chinese woman confidently stated “Sesame chicken or general Tso’s” Seeing as I love General Tso’s I took the owners recommendation and chose that option. Upon examination of the chicken, I noticed an artificial red colored sauce as well as an artificial putrid smell. Upon tasting the monstrosity, I was equally repulsed as it had an artificial disgusting taste. To make things worse, the chicken tasted pre-frozen and was overcooked. The sauce tasted like an imitation Chinese jam. I could tell that nothing was fresh and this general Tso was an imposter. To substantiate my claims allow me to expound on what a superlative general Tso should be…First you need to make the plum sauce from scratch with fresh plums and sugar making a reduction. To add kick use fresh diced spicy red peppers and lastly use fresh fried chicken pieces. The aforementioned is the abridged version as a little more goes into it. I can picture a sketchy Chinese factory producing this poisonous, artificial, insipid syrup with no regulations nor concern for human health, slapping a sticker on it that reads “General Tso’s” in Chinese lettering and shipping it oversees to unsuspecting Americans. Egregious, duplicitous and downright distasteful! By far the worst General Tso’s chicken I have ever eaten in my entire life! To make things even worse, I was constipated 2 days afterwards with stomach discomfort. I begrudgingly tried to feed it to my dog and the dog wouldn’t even touch it…it was that bad. I’m appalled that the owner recommended such a horrendous meal! Worst Chinese food I’ve ever consumed!
