" It took me a while to find a decent Chinese restaurant in town, but New China has exceeded my expectations! The food is consistently good, and the crab rangoon is delightful. Although I had a minor issue with one of my orders recently, the staff handled it beautifully and ensured my experience remained positive. Without a doubt, this is my go-to place for satisfying cravings. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve lived in the area for several years and finally tried New China. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I must say, the food pleasantly surprised me! The sesame chicken was flavorful, and the service was genuinely welcoming. It had a nice homey vibe; however, I expected a minor more authenticity regarding flavor profiles. Still, I will be coming back to explore the menu more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about New China! We are always welcomed with smiles, and the food is consistently excellent. I especially love their egg rolls and fried rice, which are always made fresh and hot. The pricing is so reasonable that we find ourselves ordering more than we should! It's become a treasured family spot for casual dining. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having traveled to China several times, I was curious if New China would live up to its name. The decor is homey and comfy, and the staff is undeniably friendly. However, some items are more Americanized than I expected. The Kung Pao chicken wasn’t as spicy or authentic as I like. Nevertheless, the food is fresh, and the wait was short. If you're in the area, it's worth a try, but it's not completely authentic. " (*Curated Review*)

" Went for lunch and had a great experience! The crab rangoon was crispy and delicious, and the appetizers were all fresh. The lunch special was an excellent value, with plenty of food to fill me up without feeling weighed down. Highly recommend trying their chicken wings, perfect balance of spice and flavor. I can’t wait to go back next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family always gets takeout from New China, and the food is usually delicious! The crab rangoon is a staple item for us. But I did notice that last week, the sweet and sour chicken was sweeter than usual. It’s not a dealbreaker; just something to be aware of! Overall, we love this place and their service has always been top-notch. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a Chinese food enthusiast, I was excited to try New China based on the great reviews. My experience started off well with a friendly greeting, but sadly, the Mongolian beef I ordered fell flat. The meat was tough and lacked flavor, which was disappointing given the praise this place receives. It's a shame because the appetizer was fantastic. I might give them another chance but will be more cautious with my selections next time. " (*Curated Review*)
