    Quick Friday lunch to go order. It's tiny. Was super quick service as well. The food was pretty good. It seemed fresh. The boba teas were ok too. Nice tapioca. There's no space to eat inside since it was so busy. The prices are decent.

    Dumpling Noodle Soup
    Brooke E.

    May Way Dumplings is take out only. I was feeling under the weather and called in the "Dumpling Noodle Soup". When I tell you the flavor of the broth SLAPS!!! The soup is exploding with flavor. They give you enough for two servings as well. Atmosphere wise is very basic- like I stated it's take out only. The staff were very nice and I will definitely be coming back!

    Fried Chicken Dumplings
    Lindsey B.

    Service: quick and good. Food: delicious. I ordered the fried chicken dumplings. The dumplings themselves were somewhat lacking in flavor. However, what the dumplings lacked the sauce made up for. It was perfectly acidic, somewhat sweet, somewhat spicy. After rolling the dumplings in it for a while I was impressed! Definitely want to go back and try some of the other options!

    The food is so flavorful and warm, perfect for a chilly day! The people who work there are very nice and quick! The dumplings are so good that I ate them all before I could even get a picture! The special sauce they add to the dumplings is so flavorful and has a bit of spice to it that makes you just want to keep eating it! Every time I'm in the area I always stop by here!

    The dumplings here were 1000% worth the drive to Winston! Services was quick and the owner was friendly. Inside is super small, definitely a pick up spot. It is a walk up service, but there was two tables outside. The food, from the dumplings to the soup was delicious. Everything definitely felt homemade and flavorful. Loved the whole experience.

    Service was quick. Dumpling noodle soup is delicious. It was flavorful and warm. They have two cute 2 seater tables outside. This is more of a take out spot. I will definitely return for the buns. They were so good.

    sesame noodles, fried pork dumplings (although usually I get the fried chicken dumplings)
    Lisa S.

    I love these guys, but pro tip, y'all: always always order ahead. There is always a line outside of people waiting for their food and I pop my head in, show a screenshot of my order number, and walk out immediately with hot dumplings and cold noodles. I like the sesame noodles and the fried, chicken dumplings best. (They're not fried chicken, they're fried dumplings and the protein in the filling is chicken as opposed to pork.) They were the first place to have boba in the area 10 years ago, which, missing Philly Chinatown, I used to get with some regularity. TBH, they're not my favorite for boba (Kung Fu Tea in High Point), but I give May Way props for early adopters in the area.

    Fabulous!! Great service and meals are ready in no time. A great dinner option & my favorite dumplings ever! Support local!!!

    Mala Cold noodle salad
    Malachi S.

    I cannot hype this place up enough. The prices are incredible, the food is mouth-watering, and everything is fresh and homemade. If there is one criticism, it is that it is essentially to-go only, as there is only a small bar to dine in, and if a line forms (there will be a line, give it 15 mins) you might be a little cramped. But, do not let this deter you from delicious dim sum in Winston-Salem, NC. My personal favorite was the Mala cold noodle salad, with a tangy peanut dressing and fresh sliced veggies paired with cold noodles. It was a great side on a hot summer day, like the other week. The only other issue to report is parking; it can sometimes be hard to find parking in Reynolda Village, but I encourage you to stop and swing by this place, as any hassle to get to it is exceeded by the delicious food you will receive.

    Chelsea R.

    I have been craving may way something fierce so when I found myself and a friend in Reynolda this was first on my list. The fried chicken dumplings and the Sesame peanut noodles always hit the spot. The mango lassi was the perfect drink to wash it all down with.

    Steamed Pork Bun- bland and dry
    Fred B.

    This small place is mostly about the dumplings, though they offer buns, soups, rice , and noodles choices. I had not been here before though I did visit the location in Greensboro near the UNCG campus - it has since permanently closed, which was probably for the best! I ordered Fried Pork Dumplings (6 for $4.95), a Steamed Pork Bun ($2.60), and Seafood Shao Mai (6 for $4.95). The order was out quickly and I was on my way! The food was rather a mixed bag. The Steamed Pork Bun was bland and rather dry. The two varieties of dumplings were better, but neither would I describe as great, and the sauce lacked any zip. There simply are better dumplings (goyza, wontons, etc) in the immediate area - Don Express, Chiang Mai Thai, and especially those at New Sichuan! Pricing was good, service was efficient, but quality of the food was not what I'd hoped for - don't see a return visit!

    Travis T.

    A hole in a wall shop that sells a variety of dumplings and other dishes. The pork bun was decent but nothing special. Overall, I wouldn't go out of my way to go to this place again.

    Fried Chicken Dumplings
    Rena H.

    A favorite of ours for years, May Way still has the best dim sum in Winston-Salem. My tip is to order online ahead of time, and have plans for takeaway. We typically order ahead and then go eat at one of the benches nearby in Reynolda Village. Don't skip the pork buns. Also, try a peach bun for dessert. It's delicious. You can't go wrong with any of the dumplings, either. It's so affordable - so why not go all out and try a bit of everything?

The menu has a great mix of familiar Chinese dishes alongside more traditional regional specialties, and it's clear the restaurant isn't afraid to lean into bold, spicy flavors. The ambiance is cozy. It looks like they turned an old Biscuitville into the dining space, which is quite charming. We ordered quite a few dishes, including the steamed soup dumplings, ox tongue and tripe with chili sauce, Singapore mei fun, intestine with chili pepper, mapo tofu, kung pao chicken, and the intestine noodle. Everything was well prepared, but the standout was how the restaurant balances more "American Chinese" flavors while also staying true to some more traditional chinese flavors as well. The chili-forward dishes had plenty of heat without overpowering the other flavors, and each dish had its own distinct character. The ox tongue and tripe appetizer and the intestine dishes were great options if you're looking to try something a little more traditional. The portions were generous, making it a great place to order several dishes and share with the table. If you're used to American Chinese food, this menu offers a chance to branch out and try something different while still having plenty of familiar options available. If there is a dish I would not order again, it would probably be the soup dumplings. They tasted just like the store bought frozen variety that you can steam at home. Nonetheless, New Sichuan Restaurant is well worth a visit if you're desiring flavors that somewhat lean towards more traditional Sichuan cooking.

They are very willing to do substitutions for vegetarian meals, I even have had tofu Dan Dan noodles there. The spicy dishes are indeed spicy!

The spicy wontons were room temperature, and I'm not sure if they're supposed to be, but they were the only thing we haven't loved. My Chongqing noodles with tofu added was absolutely delicious and very spicy! There's not a lot of description on their menu, so you may want to do a little research before going.

There's other serviceable Chinese food spots in the area, but they've always been consistent with their lunch service and as a sit down option, we prefer them over almost anyone else in the area. My wife got the General Tsos chicken with fried rice and wonton soup. I got the Szechuan beef with fried rice and it was delicious. Their beef is always cooked very well for thin cuts. Not chewy, very tender and flavorful. The veggies that come with it, the sliced celery, green peppers and carrots were cooked a little under to my liking, but it paired well with the beef flavor and the sauce its prepared in. Didn't get the chance to taste any of my wife's food but she was happy with it. Their food is always prepared very well anyways, so it was no surprise. Wasn't much of a lunchtime crowd, so the setting was quiet and we enjoyed it. I wish they'd bring their Sunday buffet back. Pre covid, we would visit them after church often and got to sample most of everything on their menu, which was also very good as well. That's the only complaint I have I suppose.

We had the hunan roast pork and vegetable lo mein, and both servings were generous in quantity. The flavor and quality of ingredients was very good. The egg rolls were crispy and large, and based on my experience working in a Chinese restaurant years ago, I suspect their egg rolls are made in house. Go satisfy those Monday cravings (or any other day of the week) and enjoy some takeout!

The center is one of those twisting/ turning ones that stays busy. There is no table service, you order at the register, pay up, and await your order. The service was ok, but not at all pleasant, no thank you! I ordered an egg roll ($1.75), chicken wings (4 for $7.75) and Mongolian Beef ($10.25). The order took just about 20 minutes. All the items were good to very good. The chicken wings were full wings, well sized, nicely cooked, and full of flavor. At the current prices for this item at most places, this is a bargain, and a tasty one! The egg rolls, there were 2 of them, were small compared with those at other places, but there were 2! The roll was nicely cooked, and had a nice flavor. The Mongolian Beef was a nice version with plenty of tender, sliced beef. The sauce was a bit heavy, but was not totally overpowering. There were a collection of veggies as you see at many places, which is not what the original dish calls for, and seems to make the dish appear larger than it would other wise be.

They are operating as takeout only at this time to ensure the safety of their customers and themselves. China is located in the shopping center where Johnny B's is located on Stratford Road and was crazy busy which to me is always a good sign. We ordered crab rangoon, steamed dumplings, the beef with broccoli combo with white rice (also comes with an egg roll) and the chicken with mixed vegetables combo with white rice (and the egg roll). The crab rangoon was probably the best dish out of everything we ordered and some of the best we've had here in Winston Salem. The steamed dumplings were okay and would probably be better if they were eaten as soon as we picked them up and not after a 10 minute drive. Both entrees were good, however my husband prefers the beef with broccoli at our normal Chinese takeout place. The egg rolls were basic and glad they were part of the entree as it wouldn't be something we would order separately. All in all, we enjoyed our meal and would definitely get the crab rangoon here again while maybe trying some other entrees. I'm looking at you General Tso chicken.
