New China Restaurant

I decided to check this place out because it was on the weekly Unilocal.Not sure how it gets decided who gets put on there but I won’t be trusting that again.
Because of other reviewers saying how good the crab Rangoon and general tsos were I ordered them. Not sure where these people have had crab Rangoon before that they think this place is the best, it was awful. The dough on it was so thick and there was barely any filling making it pretty flavorless without the dipping sauce. The general tsos also had really thick breading on it, the sauce was barely spicy and unlike a previous reviewer said it didn’t taste like chicken. The eggroll was the only part of the meal that was decent.
That being said I woke up at about 2 am with a horrible stomach ache and was sick on and off for the rest of the night and the following day. I do not recommend this place and I’ll never go back.

If you want piping hot food and excellent customer service, this is the place to order from. I can’t get enough of the soups, fried rice and Crab Rangoon! The lady who answers and takes the orders is always so nice and courteous with me and the order gets here in 30 mins or less.

nice local friendly chinese food. good food. but let me tell you now order 10 shrimp egg rolls and thank me later

Best Chinese food around! Have been a patron for 20+ years! Some of my favorite foods from here are crab ragoons, chicken lo mein and general tso’s.

Really above average in the Americanized Chinese Takeout genre, average value in a hole in the wall storefront in a nearly-​dead oldschool mini-​stripmall.
We tried standards for our first time out. Dumplings were well above average, including nice thick wrappers and very gingery pork fillings. Eggrolls were not overfried and greasy. Moo Shu pork was very tasty, although downgrades on the pancakes for having been reheated in a baggy in the microwave (and all of them fell apart along the crease lines, so it was a fail). Orange chicken was glutinous, American-​style, but had many actual pieces of orange peel in it, indicating they make the sauce from scratch. Downtick for almost no broccoli in it, though. String beans were nice and garlicky, although we still haven’t found a place in the area that sears them dry the way they’re suppose to be seared. But the quality of the beans was good and they remained crunchy. Having cantonese, szechuan, and hunan is really all over the map, and they have some true American dishes (chow mein!) so there’s not what I’d call much originality going on, but within the category everything definitely came out above average.
They had the order up within 15 minutes as well. Prices aren’t that cheap relative to the area, though, with some of the main course dishes ranging up above $ 9 for standard-​sized takeouts. They do use the reusable plastic containers (the old style paper containers were used only for rice) which is a plus.
The thing I noticed most about this place, though, compared to the many other similar and almost generic counter-​style Chinese takeout joints, is that the employees were chattering with one another, laughing, exchanging pleasantries (with one another; the English of the counter clerk was almost non-​existent, and presumably his American language skills were the best of the crew), and acting like, well, a family. Too many places like this the employees seem to be toiling under indenture (perhaps literally) and seem unhappy and gruesomely overworked. So it was a bit more pleasant than one might expect given the hideaway location.

New China is one of the better places I’ve been to for Chinese takeout, which is located in the Sheridan Plaza. The place is order at the counter with open kitchen and a few tables for eating in. They offer a good selection of Chinese dishes including Cantonese, Hunan, and Szechuan style dishes. 33 Daily Lunch Specials ($ 5.15 each) served until 3PM with pork fried rice (or white rice) and choice of soup, egg roll, shrimp roll, or soda and 30 Special Combination Plates ($ 6.75-$ 7.55) served with egg roll and pork fried rice are offered.
I recently stopped in here on a Sunday morning around 11:45AM and the place was actually open earlier than the 12 Noon opening time. The staff was busy gathering a large order. I ordered the L21 Eggplant with Garlic Sauce with Pork Fried Rice and Hot & Sour Soup. The food was ready to go in about 10 minutes. The portion of food was generous for the price, really packed into a round foil container and the soup in a separate pint container.
The eggplant with garlic sauce had a soft texture covered in a sweet and spicy sauce. The fried rice (light yellow color) had a soft texture with peas, onions, and small pieces of roast pork. The hot & sour soup had whipped egg, bamboo, vegetables, mushrooms, & bean curd in a mild spicy broth. The food overall was enjoyable and filling with leftovers for later on.
FREE DELIVERY ($ 10 minimum)

Everything here is always fresh and amazing! Ive been eating here since i was little. They have the best crab Ragoon I’ve ever had in my life!

I have eaten their twice (both times I ordered food for take out). It’s pretty decent — esp string bean chicken and Kung Pao Chicken. They are pretty quick in service, but I find that their sauce is a little too much compared to all the Chinese I’ve had so far. I would definitely recommend this joint.

Good for lunch. I had the take out lunch special, which I ate about 15 minutes after pick up. My order was made quickly and was still hot when I got to eat it. The egg roll tasted very crispy and fresh. My general tso’s chicken was good. The chicken was crisp and the sauce wasn’t too sweet. There was a little too much sauce for my taste and no broccoli to go along with the chicken, but it was still quite good. Price was also reasonable. I’ll come back.

Agree w the other review: the place is better than most & easy to take for granted as a reliable source of all you could rightfully expect from Chinese take out. 3.5 stars.

Had the hot and sour soup, vegetable chop suey, and the Kung Po Chicken.
Hot and sour soup was decent, but could have been spicier.
Chop suey was okay, but had too much sauce in my opinion.
Kung Po Chicken was really good. Fresh ingredients and just the right amount of vegetables to go with the chicken. Chicken tasted like chicken, which is a surprise as compared to other similar joints.
Prices were what you would expect from a Chinese Take-​Out joint, but on the high end. (pt of soup: $ 2; pt of chop suey: $ 3.50; qt of chicken: $ 8.15). Free deliveries on orders over $ 10, though. They also have $ 5 lunch specials.
The restaurant itself is in a dilapidated little shopping plaza anchored by a CVS. Not a lot of room on the inside, and it seems most people just duck in to pick up their food. The outside of the eatery doesn’t look like someplace you’d want to eat at, but the inside is remarkably clean.
In short, not the best Chinese take-​out I’ve had, but it’s better than most.
