No.1 Chinese Takeaway

In Salford, No.1 Chinese Takeaway has earned its stripes with a menu that confidently marries fresh seafood with classic curry dishes. The kitchen treats seafood with particular care—think prawns that taste of the sea rather than the freezer, and fish cooked just until it flakes. It’s the kind of cooking that reminds you why Chinese takeaway remains a British institution, especially when the batter is crisp and the sauces are properly balanced, not cloying.

The curry sauce here has a gentle warmth and a silky texture that clings to every chip or piece of chicken. But the real standouts are the seafood options: salt and pepper squid that’s tender without being rubbery, and Singapore-style noodles loaded with plump prawns. Everything arrives piping hot, packed with care, and ready to be devoured straight from the container. Order directly online for a meal that feels like a proper night off from the stove.
