" Every time I step into New China Cafe, I notice something new that gives me nostalgia. I remember when they had the best Szechuan beef but my last visit was unfortunate. The staff was friendly, but I could tell they were stretched thin given the crowd. Many dishes were seemingly replaced with frozen items. For example, the spring rolls tasted store-bought. I hope they return to their roots soon; it would be a shame to lose such a classic spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been a loyal customer for years, but lately I’ve noticed a significant drop in quality at New China Cafe. The crab rangoon was flat, and it looked like it had been sitting out longer than it should. They used to serve some of the freshest food, but now the vegetables are limp, and the meat doesn’t taste as vibrant. It’s such a shame because this was once my favorite place. If you visit, just keep your expectations low and hope for a better experience than I had. " (*Curated Review*)

" A group of us visited New China Cafe for a team lunch and honestly, we were left unsatisfied. The sauces were bland, and the buffet options were limited. I understand it's a buffet style but fresh dishes weren't consistently being brought out. I appreciate the effort from the team working there, but I think making sure the food is replenished can enhance the customer's dining experience significantly. " (*Curated Review*)

" New China Cafe has seen better days! I used to love coming here for a quick bite but my last few visits have been less than stellar. The food on the buffet looked tired, and my favorite dishes were either unappetizingly cold or simply not available. The staff did their best, but it often felt like they were understaffed. I wish they could just focus on keeping things fresh and flavorful like they used to. I will give it another chance, but I'm not optimistic. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently, we decided to take the kids to New China Cafe for a family meal. The selection was decent but again, consistency is missing. We tried their Kung Pao chicken, which lacked the kick I expected, while the sweet and sour chicken was enjoyable. My kids raved about the dessert bar, particularly the ice cream! The service was good, but for a place that prides itself on its buffet, I expected more from the food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have a special fondness for New China Cafe because it was my go-to spot during college. I decided to take my partner there last week, hoping for a trip down memory lane. While nostalgic, the food didn’t match up to my memories — many dishes were lukewarm, and the sesame chicken was too sweet for my taste. Still, they’ve maintained a solid service attitude, which is worth mentioning. I urge them to invest in better food quality to keep the customers coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Went to New China Cafe last night and it turned out to be quite disappointing. The buffet did not have much variety, plus most of what was there looked unappetizing. I tried the sweet and sour pork, and it was overly sweet and missing that authentic Chinese flavor. Honestly, I don’t see myself coming back without significant changes to their food offerings. " (*Curated Review*)
