New China is a well-known Chinese restaurant recognized for its traditional dishes and good food. The shrimp fried rice, with shrimp cooked to perfection, remains a popular choice, along with the curry chicken, General Tso combo, and Singapore Mei Fun, which one reviewer says is the best they've had in 10 years. The restaurant is especially appreciated for its convenient parking in a strip mall. Customers often enjoy the honey chicken, a unique dish that is hard to find elsewhere. However, some have noted that the service can be slow and sometimes unfriendly, with the young staff member appearing rushed and annoyed. The dining area is sometimes messy, with things scattered around, and the restaurant has been reported to have issues with overcooked or mislabeled dishes, like sweet and sour chicken with a small portion and an unusual sauce, or beef egg foo young with a funky taste. Additionally, some customers have experienced discrepancies in their charges and feel the restaurant is not always responsive to concerns. Despite these issues, the overall experience is generally positive, especially for those who enjoy traditional Chinese food.
