🥡 Order At The Counter

No 1 is a straightforward stop for Bensonhurst Chinese takeout, with classic dishes, lunch specials, and a few tables for a quick bite. Everything runs through the counter, and there is no table service for anyone eating in.

Regulars value the generous portions and fresh entrees, while other diners mention flat soups and thick skinned dumplings, which makes the entrees and combos the steadier lane. Staff are generally cooperative and accommodate minor substitutions on combos, a help when one order has to suit several people. Expect possible waits at busy hours, and know that some reviews raise cleanliness concerns.

The kitchen sits at 8506 21st Ave in Brooklyn and takes cash only. Hours run 11 AM to 10 PM on Monday and from Wednesday through Sunday, with the shop closed on Tuesday. Call about 15 minutes ahead for pickup, bring cash, and plan to carry the meal home.
