I wouldn't say they're *really* authentic, but they're as good or better than anything else I've had at a mom & pop place in the US. Prices are very reasonable and the portions huge. The service was friendly and reasonably quick. Now for the downside: It's a cash-only place, which is super inconvenient these days. On top of that, the ambiance, if you want to call it that, comes across as cheap and dodgy, with hand-lettered signs taped haphazardly to the walls. It's clear they're take-out oriented. That said, I'd definitely eat there again.

I'm a big fan of Chinese food and usually try to eat it a couple of times a month. I'm not sure if…read moreit's a positive or a negative, but strip mall Chinese food is pretty standard. The menus all look the same, the choices are all the same, and the restaurant layout always looks the same, regardless of this town city or state you happen to be in the only thing that seems to have variety is the actual quality and taste of the food. With everything else looking identical, it's easy to get load into thinking that they're all the same, but from experience, I can tell you there are some really bad ones out there. Fortunately, New China is a good one. They give you quality food at a good price point and they have recipes that have good flavor, just enough spice and variety to make it taste good. I'm still looking for that stellar strip mall Chinese place, but in the interim if you need just a good Chinese fix New China's a great place to try. They are friendly and quick. Worth a trip.

They removed my last review. Yeah didn't know that could happen either but here we are. No I haven't eaten there since that last review but, I am going to make my comment about it. I honestly was trying to be nice with what I said and now I am not. When I was there there was this bitch with red hair who was rude and awful I saw her make a girl cry! ACTUALLY CRY! It's like being in Highschool again with mean girls. I don't even live in the area anymore but you know what? I have heard from my friends the place is going down hill. Look I don't know who's running but this is ridiculous. It all is. Don't even bother wasting your time here the food is bad and frozen most likely and over priced as hell. As for ambiance? High school bull drama making girls cry with mean bitches at the top. read more

If you don't allow service animals in your restaurant then you need to take your sign down. Made him feel so bad. My husband was in the service and injured during duty. And to to say he can't eat there cause of his service dog. so wrong. We will not be back there.

After I ordered on DoorDash, I called the restaurant and asked them to make it a little spicy because I hate an orange chicken that is too sweet. The person who answered the phone said the sauce was already made, but he would add a side of hot sauce. I was expecting some packet of gross hot sauce. When it arrived, I tasted the hot sauce and it was obviously homemade. It had chunks of chili paste mixed in with the sauce It was so yummy. If you get orange chicken or really anything else, you HAVE to ask for their hot sauce. Along with the orange chicken I ordered one spring roll and one chicken eggroll. Two servings of orange chicken with rice and a salad with ginger dressing with $9.95! Also, I don't know what "white sauce" is in Chinese food but they have it. I tasted it and it was quite yummy.
