Egg Roll Number 1
If you’re in Greenwood, Indiana, and craving solid Chinese food in a chill, no-fuss setting, Egg Roll Number 1 might just be your new go-to. Tucked into a quiet spot at 640 US Hwy 31 S Ste D, this local gem serves up familiar favorites that hit the spot every time.
One of the first things people notice is how laid-back the vibe is. It’s the kind of place where you can show up with a bunch of friends, bring the kids, or just enjoy a quiet dinner solo. Nothing fancy, just good food and a cozy, casual atmosphere.
Now, about the food—where do we even start? The Crab Rangoon here is golden and crispy on the outside, perfectly creamy inside. It’s a crowd-pleaser, for sure. If you're into sweet and tangy flavors, their Sweet and Sour Chicken is right on the money. Big, tender chunks of chicken glazed in a sauce that’s not too sweet, not too sour—just right.
For something more filling, the Chicken Fried Rice is a must. It’s savory, generous on the portions, and pairs well with just about everything on the menu. Feeling like beef tonight? The Mongolian Beef brings that rich, slightly spicy kick that makes every bite worth it. And yes, they’ve got General Tso’s Chicken too—crispy, flavorful, and with just the right heat level.
The best part? You don’t need a reservation, and the service is usually pretty quick. Whether you're grabbing takeout or sitting down for dinner, Egg Roll Number 1 keeps things simple, affordable, and satisfying.

Having gone here quite a bit over the years I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that Egg Roll Number 1 is criminally underrated. It's always been a great place to get some takeout when I feel like getting some Chinese.
Always a solid choice. Food was hot, ready to go when they said it would be ready. We got potstickers. We will be back, the restaurant smelled so good.
We tired for the first time last week and will be back soon!! The food was great ESPECIALLY for the price! Can't wait to try more dishes. Customer service was so good and our order was done quickly too. We ordered in the restaurant and only waited about 10-15 minutes!
This restaurant is part of a small local chain. It is located in a small strip mall behind the Little Cesar's. The parking lot is small and spots are at a premium. The resturant is an equally small dining area with a few booths. There is a single chair for those waiting for to-go orders to sit. Many end up just taking a seat on one of the booths. The dining area is a bit plain and has a classic feel. The restaurant serves not only egg rolls, as the name implies, they have you typical Chinese food fare including vegetable, pork, beef, shrimp and chicken dishes, chicken fried rice, and lomein. They have lunch specials which are a small portion of the regular meal. I got the teriyaki chicken lunch special, which came with an egg roll and some fried rice. I also got two extra egg rolls to round out my meal. The staff there were friendly, bit I will admit that I did not have much interaction with them. It took about 12 minutes for my lunch to be prepared. It was fresh and hot. It was not the best Chinese food that I had, but it was pretty good. If you are dining in they have the mustard and sweet and sour sauce in bottles on the table. They still have packets available for to-go orders. You can call your order into this restaurant prior to coming. I highly suggest doing this if you are getting an order to-go. This is a nice Chinese food restaurant and it can get packed, especially during lunch time. It is definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.
Never been disappointed. The food and the prices are very good. I have been eating there for over thirty years.
