I was very impressed with their Kung Pau Tofu.! I loved how it had small tofu cuts. (They weren't dry either) Also I liked how it had mushrooms in it which is uncommon but made it delicious! The chicken on the other hand was a little dry; I ordered the sesame chicken. read more

Good family feel with great food. Expanded menu to give you plenty of options. Currently no dine-in but plenty of options to order: from walk-in to clover app, google, grubhub, uber eats, and off their website. Definitely on my list to return. read more

Their hot and sour soup is perfect! Their steamed dumplings are also delicious. I pick up the dumplings (8 pieces) and a bowl of hot and sour for a quick lunch. We are also in phase two of reopening for Covid. They still have their dining area shut down. I had to call when I arrived. They have a chair outside that they set your food on. There was plastic wrap on the top half of the doorway so even with the door open we had a barrier between us. To me it looked like they took great safety precautions and definitely more so than other places. read more

This is exactly the kind of place that is so much fun to find. Yelp search results were what brought me here, so it wasn't blind chance (they already averaged over 4 stars), but you still wouldn't think much of it just by walking in. It's a big strip mall with a big parking lot on a big busy street out in the burbs. There are quite a few good places to eat around here, but most of them are bunched up a couple miles away, and the good Chinese places start getting fewer and farther between by the time you've gotten this far out of Seattle. It's so nice to find these guys mixed ion with all the chain franchises. It's clean and tidy when you open the door; all the furniture matches and there are flat screens on a couple walls, showing whatever happens to be on when the remote gets clicked. The music selection could be a lot less poppy for my taste, but that's not why we're here. The service skews pretty young--I'd guess our server was still a student, and maybe this is a family operation. She was *so* sweet and nice. She knew the whole menu cold, and was happy to answer detailed questions about ingredients, what her favorites were, and anything else that came to mind. She pointed out that they can frequently substitute ingredients or leave things out, if desired. I love this. And the food is really, really good. We started with dumplings (pot stickers)--the first plate was lukewarm, so she quickly replaced. They seemed housemade, with nice bold ginger flavors. Not the craziest dumplings you've ever seen, but a good appetizer. The hot and sour soup is one of the better ones I have tried; not too balsamic-y, plenty of crunchy ingredients, not too sticky thick. My mom and sister have made me a lifelong obsessive over this soup, and I'd have to say they'd rate this one pretty high, out of the dozens we have sampled. The eggplant was impressive--not too slippery, good tooth to the plant itself, nice complementary flavors. I'd put this up against eggplant from plenty of places. The mandarin fried chicken was probably the star of the show: clean, lively flavors, nice crunchy dry coating (no grease at all!) and fresh hot vegetables and peppers with it. The cumin lamb was also legit. No gaminess, plenty of cumin flavor but not overpowering. Lots of fresh crunchy vegetables around it. Especially for a Szechuan place, every dish here was remarkably low in oil content. The prices were good, the tea came out in a dedicated fresh pot with big clean mugs, and the service was endlessly charming. Can't wait to come back. read more

This is kind of an old school Chinese American place. I don't hate that at all. I got delivery because I was desperate. It was timely - but I think I have grub hub to thank for that. I got sweet and sour pork, something maybe just called chicken and noodles, some egg rolls and some crab Rangoon. The S&S pork was not great. The sauce wasn't even actually good. But it was nostalgic so I didn't really care. The chicken and noodles was really good. My son liked it - and he hates most things. The noodles were great. The egg rolls were good - they were obviously made in house - not some frozen prepackaged thing. The crab Rangoon was.... Not good. Not a hint of krab. Basically a fried wonton with some cream cheese, with the standard weird red sauce. I was slightly resentful about that appetizer - I won't lie. It felt like food from the once a month Chinese food my parents would bring home from the Moon Garden back in the day. And that is what I was in the mood for. I didn't know it at the time. read more

Second time here in three years. Food was decent. Ordered moo shu pancake for the veggie mix. Was fresh and tasty. But the pork fried rice was flavorless. read more

Coming from southern California, I've been a bit disappointed in the quality and overall taste in restaurant food in general. I've been craving Chinese food for a while and have held off because, typically, ordering Chinese is a $30-$40 investment and have been skeptical about the return. I chose this restaurant based on its yelp reviews. There aren't many but the rating is higher than the fancier Mill Creek town center restaurant. Also, this restaurant offers one person dinner special meals. I was weary about the freshness of this order as its a "special" but at least it'll give me a taste of what they have to offer. I ordered the special including Egg Flower soup, General Tso's chicken and chow mein. And, it was sooo yummy! The soup was great, however, hard to mess up. Fresh, tender chunks of chicken without too much batter and not too sweet. And, even the chow mein was freshly made and had a great flavor balance. I highly recommend for your Chinese take out cravings. I will most definitely be coming back! read more

We are a family with both vegetarians, meaty meat eaters, and meat eaters who like tofu. New China is the best Chinese restaurant we have ever eaten at, not hyperbole. The flavors taste home-cooked, not over sweet and tasteless. We have had several kinds of fried rice, Kung Pao tofu, Orange tofu, teriyaki chicken, and we always get a dish of just the broccoli as well. The veggies are crisp, the servings huge, the flavor great. I saw a review complaining about the looks of the teriyaki chicken with sesame seeds and watery looking. In our experience, sesame seeds are common on teriyaki, and even though it may appear watery the flavor wasn't lacking. I am so glad we found this restaurant, I usually have enough for left overs twice! It's my go to when I need a break in the kitchen. read more

They need to change the oil in their fryer as the egg rolls were a real disappointment .

Did not expect such amazing quality food in a strip mall. The tea was fantastic. The food was amazing. read more

Terrible for take out!!!! I had to go back with the food because the tops to the containers caved in and got all over. I asked them to get me all new food because it had gotten cold. The looked at me like they didn't want to do it however they did. I brought it home again and the same thing happened. They also forgot to put in some of the food that I had ordered. I AM DONE WITH THIS PLACE!!!! I called to let them know and all they offered was 10% off my order. I would have expected a full refund if my money. NOPE!!! I will never go back there again. After all of this the food is mediocre at best. read more

Food is tasty but definitely not what you would describe as authentic. Flavors are all a bit off form what you'd expect as true Szechuan-style--- much sweeter, thicker, and lighter on the spice. Had my classic go-to's at Szechuan with deep-fried chicken Szechuan-style (too heavy on the breading and sweet making it more like a General Tso's), Mapo tofu, Boiled fish in spicy chili oil sauce, and Shredded pork with garlic sauce. The hot and sour soup was on point though! Would definitely recommend that -- a steal for $3.25 for a nice-sized bowl. Packed with ingredients and great flavor (good balance of sour and spicy without the heavy-handed black pepper lots of places tend toward) read more

What a pleasant surprise! Would always see this place going to Albertsons, dollar store, & rite aide... But never tried it. Wanted Chinese food one day and opened my yelp app to find a Chinese restaurant in the area... decided to try this place out... Wow... So glad we did! We also heard that there are new owners... Same name... New owners. The egg flower soup was delicious (water based) ... That's a good start! Ordered the dry cooked string (green) beans & stir fry cabbage (added tofu +$1.50)... Both were so good! And the rice came with the meal... No additional charge for the rice! Yay! If these entrees were that good... Wow... I can only imagine the other menu items being really good too! Such a great and tasty Chinese food restaurant right smack in an unassuming strip mall... It's a must try! Food 5 Service 4 (no water refill, no utensils, no napkins or plates... Too busy) Decor & Ambiance 4 Cleanliness 4 read more

We used to go to this place often because it had great food and great customer service. In the past few months, this has changed. The normal server is a bit slow and has a weird pace with giving food. I am usually halfway through my soup when my main meal comes in. And waiting for the soup can take 15-20 minutes on a slow day. However, today, there was a new server. She had her headphones on the entire time and was playing with her phone. She did not greet us coming in and tossed the menus on our table without saying anything. We had to wait 10 minutes for her to take our order and she never brought out water. We finally get our order in and wait 10 more minutes for water and tea. At that point, she put up a "We will be back soon" sign, with 3 tables of customers with no food, and walked off into the bathroom on her phone. Again, we did not even have a beverage. We decided to leave at that point and are not coming back. read more

Excellent hole in the wall, family owned business. Fresh ingredients executed well. Ordered the Kung Pao chicken and General Tso's chicken and both were excellent. Portions were big, probably could have split one entree with my wife (and I like to eat ) Will definitely be back. read more

I would probably say 3.5 stars.. my husband was at 4 stars We enjoyed our food and thought it was good. It's convenient as it is super close to us so we will probably return! We got General Tsos CHicken, Sesame Chicken, and Chicken Chow Mein - all very good! read more

Ordered the broccoli and beef the beef was so rancid could not eat it. Will be taking back tomorrow all other items ordered fried rice lowering oily and bland. Tsaos chicken bland. Sweet and sour pork was good, still getting sick from the one bite of beef I tried to eat. Disappointed at quality quantity taste owners care read more

We were hesitant to try this place because we'd heard from someone that it was not good. I'm glad we did because it was the best Chinese food we have ever had in this area. We had the general tso and sweet and sour chicken, everyone in the family loved it. This will be our new go to place, close to home and delicious!! read more

I would come to this place with my family many years ago. This used to be one of our favorite Chinese restaurants to go to for dinner. The owners were super sweet and had the best customer service. Fast forwarding to now, they have a new ownership. The food is different but still tastes good. I've been here a few times since the new ownership and I'll have to say I'm NOT impressed with the customer service. All the times I have gone here, I have been talked to and looked at rudely. In fact, I just came here today with some friends to dine in for the first time (I usually get take out) and the tables were dirty and the hostess said that she'll clean up the table before we get seated. However, she disappeared and didn't walk back out until another party came in. She cleaned their table first and sat them down before attending to our table - when we were waiting a long time. My friends and I decided to walk out and eat somewhere else. The food is good, but I don't want to give my business to a restaurant that treats their customers disrespectfully. read more

We came with friends for lunch to try out after having read all the good reviews. We are happy with the dishes ordered and asked for 4 star spicy level. Four of us walked out with satisfying stomach. My hubby and I came back for dinner on our own on the same day. Hubby ordered the beef noodle and he had high praise for it. I enjoyed the Mapo Toufu ordered at lunch so I ordered again at dinner time. Yummy dish! read more

I have been to New China a couple of times now and ordered the cumin beef (one of my favorite Chinese meals). Their version of it tastes pretty good but the beef to onion ratio is way off (a lot of onions and a little beef). The price is also a bit high for what you get. My advice is to try this place once, but don't go too often. Your breath will smell like strong onions, you'll still be hungry after your meal, and your wallet will be lighter. read more

This restaurant was good when we first moved to the neighborhood, then I heard it had been purchased by new owners and it went way downhill. We didn't go for a while but then heard it was purchased again & now it is fantastic! The meats are all tender, each dish is flavorful. They have really good egg flower soup, which can be bland. Sweet & sour is something I try at most Chinese restaurants & theirs is exceptional. There is a good meat-to-breading ratio, the pork was tender & the sauce was both sweet & sour, unlike most places who just have thick sweet sauce. You won't be disappointed here. They are also being extremely cautious around the coronavirus, which I appreciate. read more

Good food, moderately priced. Had chow mien, gen tsao, fried rice, bbq pork. Not the usual bbq pork, this was really good.

We moved nearby in August and have ordered from here countless times. It is definitely worth having to go pick up in lieu of delivery. Everything we have tried has been flavorful and cooked perfectly but in my opinion the absolute star is the wonton soup. Sounds like an odd thing to have as a favorite, I know, but the broth is so yummy and it's LOADED with veggies and wontons. I mean, SO many veggies, seriously! Broccoli, and carrots, and bamboo shoots, oh my! We have yet to be disappointed and when I'm done writing this we are ordering again. read more

This time we ordered the Dry Green Beans, yummy! and the Hot and Sour Soup, deeelicious!

The food here is amazing. We come here every two weeks after getting our nails done next door and always order the rangoons and honey walnut shrimp, then we try something new along with it. So far everything we've tried has been delicious and the food is made fairly quickly so it's not a long wait. On top of that the rangoons are some of the best I've ever had and the honey walnut sauce is addicting. Unfortunately service does seem slower than usual lately, with one waitress just disappearing randomly and having to wait ages just to get the check. However we'll continue to keep coming back every two weeks! read more

Adding a star due to good dinner service. Tried Taiwan beef noodle, general tso chicken, salt and pepper chicken and Singapore rice noodle. Flavorful, but less than other places, so I gave it a thumbs up, but only part way. Still, the flavors were good and fresh tasting. I'll have to try more from their extensive menu to double check. read more

Ok, apparently this place has changed ownership and menu since I ate here. I often wait several months to post reviews to keep it anonymous. If I spend money with you, the quality should be the same even if I only eat there annually. To be fair to the new owner, I pulled my bad review and I'll give them another try. I'll post a new review when I have the opportunity to do this. I've said it before in other reviews and I'll say it again now; if you buy an existing restaurant and don't change the name or location, you inherit the baggage that comes with it. If it was a great place then by all means, do it. If it wasn't, you lose the business that they lost read more

I really like them. Cashier is nice and I think their food is delicious. I've never eaten inside so I can't comment on their waiting service. Their food is not greasy in my opinion which is a problem I've had with other Chinese restaurants. My favorite go to meal there is their Salt and Pepper Tofu read more

This place used to be banging until new ownership. The honey walnut shrimp was not bad but wasn't good either (too much batter and over fried) The broccoli with beef was meh! Although, the egg flower soup and fried rice was very good read more

Just had our second great meal here. Had to come back and see if the first time was a fluke. Nope, this place is for real and the new owners are doing a great job. The food is delicious. Everything seems very fresh and tasty. The service is great and your order arrives quickly. Tonight, our family of three ordered kung pao chicken, beef broccoli, Mongolian beef, rice, and chow mein and it was more than enough for us. All the veggies were fresh and crisp, food wasn't greasy or mushy like some other places, and lots of flavor. I'm looking forward to going back soon. read more

As a vegetarian, it's often been difficult to find a Chinese restaurant that offered vegetarian versions of the dishes I used to love, like General Tso's Chicken and Orange chicken. This restaurant is the definition of a hidden gem. They offer General Tso's Tofu and Orange Tofu. Me and my girlfriend ordered 1 of each and sampled both together. All I can say is that I was blown away. In fact, I was eating the Orange Tofu so quickly I accidentally ate an orange peel used for garnish and flavoring! My bad but no regrets haha. Finally, after many years of searching for a Chinese restaurant that could offer these things, I've found it. However, I understand that the vast majority of customers and potential customers will be non-vegetarian. So for them, all I can say that if this restaurant can perfectly pull off vegetarian versions of Chinese-American classics, just imagine how good their staples must be. For more info, I suggest looking at the other reviews. It's strip mall location is rather unassuming, but I implore you to give it a try! Thank you New China for an amazing meal! I will most definitely be back. read more

I really just need to share this because my experience was horrifying. I ordered some food at this place that I have never been too before. I have never tasted Chinese food so horrible in my life. I don't even know what kind of meat it was it was supposed to be chicken but I don't think it was. I don't know what they are using, nothing tasted or looked like any Chinese food I've ever had in my life!! It was absolutely horrible and it made me sick. She not only didn't give me a receipt conveniently. She told me over the phone to bring the food in and that she would give me my money back I then get there she takes the food from me looks at it and says I can't give you your money back then wouldn't give me the food back either. I will be calling the health department on Monday! read more

I have been a few times now, The new management is great !! The food excellent !! Service top notch!! This will definitely be one of my regular spots!!

This place is an immediate favorite!! My family and I ordered an assortment of dishes and decided to share family-style so we were all able to try a little of everything. So glad we did! The food is outstanding! Noticeably fresh ingredients, balanced flavor profiles, and the lack of MSG made me fall in love with their food. Then we got to know the owners a little better which makes me love them even more! An adorable couple: she's front of house keeping customers smiling with her cheerful disposition. He's back of house, bringing his Las Vegas VIP chef experience to the PNW. So much yes! read more
