I spent about an hour here, slowly eating and enjoying. I didn't gorge because the steam tables were well maintained and the food coming out from the kitchen was fresh. The sushi display was excellent and I did have a bit of that, even though the rice balls were rather large compared to the fish with it. Still, overall a filling and tasty meal. The dining room could use a refresh and many of the chairs are a bit cracked. The restroom was not especially clean but clean enough. I had a good dinner.

I believe in giving restaurants a second chance but this time was the last straw. I ordered Orange Chicken and fried rice. First, the fried rice was absolutely tasteless, no flavor at all. Then I looked at the chicken - the Orange sauce was so overcooked it was almost black. I tried a bite anyway, and almsot gagged. The sauce and the chicken both had the consistency of lumpy jelly. I gave it to my dog because I was already home and it would have cost me more than the meal was worth to drive back. My advice is stay away from this place, the quality has really gone downhill and I will NOT be going back again.

It was a to- go order and it was ready, on time, and hot when I got there. Initially I thought this was a small amount of food for the price point. Actually it was deceiving. There's enough food in there for at least two separate meals. The total cost for two orders was 30.96 USD. The noodles were the star of the show and they were perfectly wonderful. New Century Restaurant has a gigantic menu selection. I only hope the other foods that I try are this good because I'm going to be a regular customer and fan of this place.

We had a lovely talk about food and how wonderful the food was. The food is authentic and spice can be adjusted. It was my bf first time having Pho and he would definitely be ordering it again. He ordered chicken pho and the broth was clean and flavorful. Had plenty of noodles and chicken in it. Came with bean sprouts, cilantro and jalapeno. Siracha and Hoisin sauce on side. Next we had the pork shumai. Boy was this delicious. Came with 5pcs and a delicious plum sauce. I definitely will order this again. Last I ordered the Sesame chicken. I would easily say the star of the show. The breading on the chicken was light and crispy with a perfect thick glaze sauce. The side of jasmine rice made it a great hearty meal. All in all it was a great meal and if you haven't tried it please support this local business.

This place was a fusion of Asian foods so I'm usually a bit reluctant to order anything too crazy so we stuck with what we knew. Spring rolls were fresh and tasty. Haven't had it with bell peppers before but it was good with the sauces. Green curry had good flavor but a touch loose for how I usually like it. Ginger salad came really overdressed so we didn't eat too much of that but we really liked the cucumbers. Whatever that sauce it was tossed in was very pleasant. We also enjoyed the stir fried eggplant dish with shrimp. It had a nice sweet and tangy flavor. Lastly I ordered the pad see ew, noodles cooked really well and all the textures were there. I could taste the char from the wok but it did lack that "sweet soy" flavor I'm looking for in this dish. I would say overall we enjoyed most of the dishes and some just needed a bit more flavor but it was still a good experience.

Hands down the best Thai food in all of NC... and who would've guessed it'd be coming out of a small town like Rutherfordton. Plot twist of the century. From appetizers to the main dishes, you literally cannot go wrong. It's so good we went twice in one week, which my stomach fully supported and my diet absolutely did not. Worth it. The flavors slap, the portions are perfect, and the staff treats you like you accidentally wandered into your friend's house for dinner. Enough said -- if you like good Thai food, this place is a mandatory life experience. See you guys next time I'm in the area... which, let's be honest, will probably be sooner than I should admit.

It is located in downtown Asheville so there is no immediate parking lot but there are some places nearby or street parking, The inside is very modern and there is seating both inside and outside. Our server was very friendly and service was very prompt! My family got the Lo Mein with Chicken, Chow Fun with Beef, Sautéed String Bean, Buddha Bean Curd Rolls, Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, and Spicy Chicken. I loved the Crystal Shrimp Dumplings! The wrapper was very tender and the shrimp filling was delicious. It tasted very authentic to me. I also loved the Sautéed String Bean as it had the right amount of garlicky sauce. The Lo Mein was made with thinner than usual noodles but still tasted good. I think the Chow Fun tasted a bit off. It kind of tasted a bit sweet and like drunken noodles at some points as opposed to the traditional smoky flavor that the dish has. The rice noodles that were used were also thin as opposed to the usual wider noodles. As for the Spicy Chicken, it tasted solid. I liked the slight crisp before biting into each piece and it was not really spicy. I definitely tasted the cumin (I am not a super big fan of), which is a popular flavor found in Szechuan cuisine. Overall, I think this is a nice spot for some Chinese food, especially being near the mountains which is more isolated. I would probably rate it a 3.75/5 stars if I could. I wish chicken feet were part of their dim sum menu (it is pretty small and there are no rolling carts in case anyone is wondering). I do think some flavors of the food I tasted seem to cater a bit more to the Western taste palate (my parents agree as well), but I enjoyed my time here.
