Cutting to the chase with highest recommendations: Moo shoo pork, bourbon chicken, hot & spicy shrimp, egg foo yong, and shrimp/beef/chicken/pork with garlic sauce, and the wontons with garlic sauce.

I have eaten literally every item at this place, including the chicken nuggets. When I was in high school, there was a restaurant in Tarrant that I would frequently visit and I had a copy of their menu that I would strike through, and get a different thing each time. I wanted to try doing that again, and finish off the menu of a Chinese place, so after I tried the sesame chicken there and figured it is a place that does things right (see below), Nothing that I have gotten here is bad, except the chicken nuggets (please don't go to a Chinese restaurant for chicken nuggets) and the two tofu dishes. The steamed health dishes were a lot better than I expected, having never gotten one before.

I have a standard for Chinese restaurants: if they don't do sesame chicken right, they won't do the rest right, so if I go to a place I may go to more than once, I will get sesame chicken first. There's two kinds, the syrupy gross kind, and the good kind. New China has the good kind. (One exception is Ming's Garden in Gardendale. They have terrible sesame chicken but great Mongolian beef).

By the way, there's a dish called Dragon & Phoenix that is a mix of General Tso Chicken and Hot & Spicy Shrimp in the same plate. Get one or the other, and don't get that dish, because the shrimp's sauce is thinner than chicken's sauce and will make it taste weird and watered down. Obviously I recommend the latter dish more or else I wouldn't have put it at the top.

Quick food but not so great. Fried rice tastes old and had no veggies. It was more like rice with color. The orange chicken flavor was okay but chicken was dry, the broccoli was cooked good. The chicken fried rice my daughters orders had some veggies and chicken but the flavor was not so good tasted old crab ragoon and wantons were good. Egg rolls were okay.

For as long as I have lived in Cullman, I’ve never been here. Today my mom and grandma decided to give it a try. The service was not great. The food was decent egg rolls were good. Everything was good I got orange chicken with fried rice. As I’m finishing up, there was a bug, baby mouse or something in my food. Absolutely disgusting, probably will never come back. That explains the 91 rating, it should be lower!

Food is so hot it takes forever to cool down which is perfect for takeout. Got the bourbon chicken and it’s so good it’s my new favorite but the other dishes are great, too.
