Been here a couple times and never had anything bad. I like that the dinner specials come with an egg roll, soup, and rice. I got the shrimp egg foo young dinner special. It was a good size and worth the price. We also got a large combination lo mein which comes with shrimp, beef, and chicken. The shrimp are very small in comparison to the chicken and beef pieces so they do get lost. There is also no sauce on the lo mein so it does lack in flavor. There are also a bunch of vegetables that come in it which I thought was a bit much. I'd skip this next time. Don't get me wrong, I will definitely continue to come here! read more

Ugh. I don't like writing negative reviews. I ordered combination fried rice. The chicken and beef were dried out, could barely find or see the shrimp. It tasted as if it was days old leftovers. I specifically asked for juicy, fresh orange chicken. I received chewy, tough, old chicken. It's as though they have no pride in their food. I should have read the reviews but drove to the nearest Chinese food. I could barely eat but a few bites. I didn't want to feel ill. Waste of money. This was my experience. I would not recommend. read more

This place used to be our go to. But I don't know if they have a new cook or what? I found the food to lack flavor. Kung pao used to be the best but the last 2 times it was very dry and flavorless. The Mongolian beef was so oily and tasted fishy. They must have cooked it in old oil. The people are really nice and because we've been going there for many years I gave it a 3 star rating. Otherwise l, for the last 2 visits I'd give maybe 2. I hope things will get better read more

Iv'e been a long time customer (since they opened). Over the last year the quality of the food has declined. This evening the eggroll tasted old and stale. It wasn't even chewable. The general Tso's chicken was tough and chewy as if it was in a freezer too long. I also found two pieces of hair mix with the chicken. Their sauce used to be light and flavorful, it was too thick, gooey, and used way too much. They probably used to make it homemade and now most likely container bought. I had to toss half the food in the garbage. unfortunately I will not return.. read more

Interesting, small restaurant that does mostly takeout. Food came quickly. Food was good!

Ordered Sweet and Sour Chicken, the chicken was overcooked. Ordered Chicken Egg FuYoung and the sauce was very gelatinous. Egg Drop Soup was good, Crab Rangoon was good, and I would go back but not before trying other local places. I hope they improve over the three times we have ordered from this place. read more

My husband and I decided to try a different local Chinese restaurant because our usual spot is closed on Sundays. The lady at the counter was super friendly and our order was ready in the time we were given over the phone. We ordered the beef chop suey lunch special and the orange chicken lunch special. Both lunch portions come with soup or a drink. We opted for the egg drop soup and enjoyed it. The beef chop suey had good flavor, however the portion of meat was small. The fried rice was lacking flavor and did not have any chicken or vegetables. It tasted like white rice with soy sauce. The orange chicken was good. It was on the sweeter side but had good flavor. The white rice was cooked just right. They give you a good amount of food and the prices are fair. We would return but wouldn't get the fried rice again. read more

This is one of my favorite Chinese restaurants. I always order Spicy Shrimp Lo Mein and it is made to perfection. Theres lots of "Chinese" food consumers that don't know exactly what good food is. They just know their orange chicken. please don't let yourself be mislead and try this place out. read more

It had been at least 10 years since the last time I was here. Ordered pick up on a Saturday and this place was insanely busy. I arrived in 25 minutes as quoted and then had to wait another 20 for my order. There were about 10 people waiting when I got there and their phone did not stop ringing. I was afraid that how they were running around there that food quality would suffer. I was right. The order of egg rolls were overcooked to oblivion. The other two orders were not much better. The only redeeming point is that the shrimp in the spicy garlic shrimp were fresh and numerous. This dish was not spicy at all, in fact it was bland. The egg foo young seemed to have been cooked in old oil. It had an off taste. I blame myself for being too lazy to go to my normal spot. The last time there it was also disappointing, so I thought I would give New China a shot. Maybe I'll try them again in 10 years or so. read more

First time trying New China. food is not good. Winton soup was terrible. I will not go back.

My first job was at Dominick's In the same strip as New China so I've been familiar with this place from early 2000s. We used to get the Shrimp Lo Mein XX-Spicy and sit in our cars on a cold night and devour this deliciousness. I hadn't come here in at least a decade until a buddy told me that they taste just the same as it did when we were younger so I had to try it out again. Folks, it did not disappoint! I've been back several times in a month. Its the ultimate comfort food. $10.99 for a large lo mein with fresh ingredients and taste that cannot be matched! A large will easily feed three people. Or save it for lunch the next day. So far I've tried a few other dishes as well. Garlic Chicken 7/10 Schzwaan Chicken (Yeah, I know I misspelled it) 6/10 Fried Rice 9/10 Shrimp Lo Mein 10/10 read more

We got the general taos chicken, szechwan chicken, chicken fried rice and egg rolls. It all tasted the same, like nothing. We've been trying to find a good Chinese restaurant near home. The search continues. read more

First time trying New China tonight and it's some of the best Chinese food we've tried to date! Totally impressed by the taste & quality of our fried rice, the General Tso's chicken and the vegetable lo mein. Happy now that we've moved back to Addison and have had AWESOME Chinese food in other suburbs. Even those places weren't this good. We're happy found an even better alternative read more

This is my go to Chinese restaurant. The food today was horrible! Fried shrimp were so greasy and the grease tasted old. The chicken lo mien was just fair BUT it was so greasy. My plate was cover in oil. The only decent dish was the egg drop soup. So disappointed. Time to look for a new place for take out. read more

Found bacon in their crab Rangoons! Who puts in bacon in crab Rangoons?? Not going there anymore

We ordered the food and I was told it would be 40 minutes it's been 1 hour and forty minutes now. I called twenty min ago they said they were on the way. It's a five minute drive we are still waiting getting very annoyed. Finally received the food egg rolls were not good at all. Sweet and sour chicken was very good very fresh but the sauce it came with is very gingery so you have to like ginger. I ordered orange chicken for myself it was okay. I wouldn't order again definitely not worth the wait of almost two hours. read more

I am surprised that this restaurant is rated so low. I ordered from them twice, orange chicken "very spicy" both times, and found it superior to other restaurants. Plus the serving size was huge for a small ($6.29). Could have easily fed two slightly hungry people. The first time I ordered from there, my friend ordered a small shrimp with assorted vegetables. There had to be 12 large shrimp in the small size for around $9. She ordered from them again and ordered the shrimp again, this time ordering a large and counted 16 shrimp this time. All in all, my experience with New China was a positive one, and will definitely be ordering from them again! read more

5 STARS I give it a 5 stars but you know how it is with Chinese food we look for the 3 stars the place looks a little old somewhat run down but the food is the best Chinese food in all of Addison read more

This place used to have decent Chinese food for years, not so much now. The last few times we ordered the food was so salty it was inedible. I called them to inform the owner that hey I've been coming for years but something is off with the last few orders. Owner insisted nothing has changed nor has anyone else complained... ok then. She offered I drive back with the food in a storm to remake. Nah, I'm good, will not be going back. She also insinuated because I took soy sauce, that we did not use, food was so salty from the container , that maybe we made it salty. Not great customer service. read more

I was so disappointed with this place I bought back my food cause it had a funny taste I bought it before I went to work yesterday. Just left restaurant and it tastes horrible.. I will never go to this restaurant again I'll stick to my neck of the woods. read more

I just started to work in the area and was looking for a good Chinese place for lunch. The food was fresh and very good. I order the lunch combo egg foo young with sauce on the side. It wasn't greasy and fried rice was fresh not old rice. This will now be my go to place for Chinese for lunch. Customer service was good as well. read more

as a vegetarian it is really hard to find good Chinese food that offers options and is accommodating to my diet and this place did that. I got the veggie fried rice, fried veggie tofu, and spicy broccoli which were all amazing. the spicy broccoli sauce was the star with it's sweet and spicy sauce! thank you for the wonderful service!! read more

Food was horrible . No flavor and dry . By the time it was delivered to us our food was cold . Very disappointed. Will never go back !

I was a little turned off by all the mixed reviews! It seemed like people either loved this place or hated it. But I have to say, I can't find one thing to complain about! When placing my order, the employee was courteous and informative. Super thorough. Food was ready when promised. We picked everything up without an issue. Everything was neatly packaged and still warm when we got home. The food itself tasted great. No one in the party complained. Lots of people kept saying they loved the "color" in their meals. The veggies looked fresh and there was a wide variety of them in multiple entrees. Sometimes, I feel that generic Chinese food looks, well, uniformly brown. This food tasted as fresh as it looked. Everything was seasoned nicely. AND another positive was that the price seemed about $5-$10 cheaper than our usual Chinese stops. We are happy with our experience. read more

I give a restaurant 3 times to get my order right. Well, this is New China's third time, third strike. Yesterday, my Mom and I ordered Egg Fu Young, the Vegetable meal, and two egg rolls. The egg rolls were AWFUL! You can tell they were refried from the day before, as they were very hard to chew and almost burnt. The time before, like others have posted, I had to wait well over an hour at the restaurant to get my food. Then the first time I tried New China, I got home to find out they gave me someone else's order. BAD NEWS! My suggestion is to try Panda Express, also in Addison! They have very good food! read more

The dinner special is such a good deal. I got the sweet and sour chicken, chicken fried rice, and wonton soup. They filled everything to the brim! So much food for only $7.59. read more

We've always ordered since we've moved to Addison. Best Chinese restaurant in Addison honestly! Totally recommend to anyone out here. read more

Best Chinese food and portions around town. Owners are very friendly and care about there buisnes

This is my go to place for Chinese food! We have been ordering from New China for over ten years . The service is great and the food is delicious. My favorite is the Sesame Chicken and the Kung Pow Chicken. Their lunch specials and dinner specials are a great deal and will fill you up. read more

Ordered lunch at 12:15 for delivery At 1:20 we call for status since it had not arrived yet Food finally shows up around 1:40, meaning they forgot about it until we called back We were all starving at this point so the arrival of the food was exciting.....then we took our first bite Egg rolls were burnt (what Chinese Restaurant doesn't know how to make an egg roll) Our fried rice tasted burnt Chicken tasted like cleaning products Crab Rangoon was half way decent, maybe a bit dry/over cooked Gave us the wrong soup We all threw our lunches in the garbage. No one really ate much. $49 down the drain. Panda Express is 1000 times better than this place and Panda Express is a dump Really bad food, horrible delivery time. My suggestion, cook every meal like you are serving a first time customer, which we all were. And now none of us will ever eat there again. Nor will we ever recommend this place to anyone we know. Good work cook. read more

First time went there to order Take out and the food was grate and fresh the beef was very good with no fat and soft well cooked thank you for the meet quality and grate service read more

Service was very friendly from the lady. She patiently explained to me and my friend what the 'House Special' was on the dinner special menu. They don't skimp on fresh prime ingredients like the jumbo shrimps, water chestnuts, red peppers, sesame seed oil, etc. Egg rolls were tasty and crispy hot straight from the fryer. The wonton soup was very good too. All for a very reasonable price. I will be back to try other stuff. read more

Sooo good! Small place great for take-out but we stayed and got a ton of food for $20. We were passing through town and my 7yr old wanted Chinese. It was perfect. read more

Not many Chinese joints nearby, so when I want delivery I have little to 0 options. That being said, I love that they use NO MSG in their food. Some menu choices are definitely better than others...and by 'better' I mean slightly above average. Owner is very friendly and deliveries are prompt (nice delivery guy too). It's mandarin style Chinese eats.. What I do not order: (but would have, had they been good).. Steamed dumplings. Disappointing. What I do order and find to be OK 'edibles': Combo fried rice (lighter flavor, not much meat, but you do get a good amount of rice, heehee), Chicken lo mein (tasty with good veggies, but they use spaghetti noodles & shouldn't) Crab Rangoon (also tasty but skimpy on filling), Egg roll (not bad, but like more fresh veggies and less peanut taste), Szechwan spicy shrimp (decent, not spicy enough for me but that's ok...shrimp are not your fancy jumbo kind), Moo shu chicken (pretty good - average amount of chicken, lots of thinly sliced tender cabbage, fresh mushrooms, bean sprouts & scrambled egg), Won ton soup (hits the spot on a chilly night). In a nutshell - the dishes I order are pretty okay. Meat (chicken or beef) tastes fresh & tender. Veggie's are always fresh & not overcooked. Sometimes I enjoy it more than other times. Prices are on the low end , portions are sizable. Establishment looks clean. More of a take-out & delivery place as there's no tables to eat. I will continue to order from here whenever I need delivery. read more

So my spouse and I decide to meet for lunch and get some Chinese food. I ordered egg rolls and Chinese style rice, I don't know if the fact that nobody was in the place and they were incredibly slow. But this was just gross. Cold and burnt food. It was inedible. I feel one star is too generous read more

Never again. We ordered sweet and sour chicken, Mongolian beef, egg rolls, and crab rangoon.

When it comes to Chinese food, quality runs a long spectrum. On one side, you have fresh and healthy eateries, such as Friendship. On the other side, you have cheap and fast holes-in-the-wall like Good Luck Chop Suey. New China strikes a wonderful balance, using no MSG and quality ingredients, but keeping things quick and cheap. I ordered Mongolian beef and actually saw the cook mixing it up in a skillet. The lunch specials run every day from 11 a.m to 3 p.m. and include your choice of fried or steamed rice, soup or drink, and fortune cookie. My entire meal cost $5.50. The fried rice was firm and not swimming in grease. The beef was tender and tasty, and the green onions were fresh and flavorful. The restaurant itself is tiny. I recommend carrout or delivery. Delivery requires a minimum order of $8 and costs $2-$2.50, depending on where you need it delivered. read more

I don't enjoy giving small business bad reviews, but when I ordered out from here I wanted Hot & Sour Soup, Hunan Beef, and eggrolls. What I got was terrible and often violent digestive issues over the next two days. The soup was standard, but when I started eating the main entree, it had a bitter taste to it.. I really think they used a cleanser on the cooking wok and didn't rinse properly. Ever accidentally taste cleanser? That's what I tasted and a few tastes at that. Threw it away, and tried the eggrolls. The wrapping was crispy, but the filling was soggy and looked like those Yu-Shan eggrolls you get at the store and plop in the micro when you're stoned or drunk and hungry (you can't be sober that's for sure). I'm a huge fan of Chinese food, but I can't be brave enough to try this place again and risk another 48 hours of misery and despair. read more

Great pricing on lunch specials! I always have the sesame chicken special and it comes with rice and a soup or pop! My favorite is the hot and sour soup. It's so tasty! read more
