8 Best Chinese Restaurants in Saint John

“Ordered for the first time here. Ordered through Doordash. THE FOOD TASTED FANTASTIC 10/10. But the portion is just not giving 20 dollars. Anyway, I SUGGEST THAT THEY INCREASE the Portion of THEIR FOOD. So the pricing for the Combos are 20 dollars (plus taxes) but the portion is not worth 20 dollars I say… Badly want to order again but 20 dollars for 1 combo and small portion was just not worth the price.“

“Always fresh and delicious. Just had the Hot & Sour Soup....new favorite!“

“First visit to New Chinese Cuisine Restaurant off the end of Manawagonish Rd.

Wait steff greeted us and allowed us to sit where we wanted for lunch. I was actaully suprised at the size of the restaurant as I had originally thought it was takeout with a few tables. It is a moderately sized dining area which suprised me.

We were promptly brought our menus and our drinks were ordered promptly.

My wife ordered combo #4 which consisted of Egg roll, sweet and sour pork, beef broccoli and chicken fried rice and a starter of small won ton soup.

I ordered combo #1 which consisted of egg roll, sweet and sour chicken balls, chicken chiw mein and chicken fried rice. I too ordered a small won ton soup for an appetizer. As well as a diet pepsi.

The pepsi came in a can with a straw which was my only (slight) disappointment of the meal. Everything else was better than expected. Our won ton soup came with fresh veg which was al-dente (they way in should be) and the bowl, for a small, was far larger than every single other won ton soup bowl ive ever had at a restaurant, this was either a large (by mistake) or they serve their large in a mixing bowl. I had eaten a quarter of the broth before taking the picture.

Next came our egg roll. Very hot and as crispy as you can make an egg roll (the picture doesnt give it justice, I tried to show texture as best I could). Our meal was served once our egg rolls and soup were eaten, very astute of our server and she was very attentive at keeping our glasses full and our table clear.

Stew is best after it has set for a day because the flavors start to mix together and blend into that stew taste that we are all familiar with (right now I have beef or rabbit stew with a little cumin in it on the mind as I write this....now you do too...lol, let me bring you back to the restaurant) our meals didnt have that typical blended taste (you know like the special at Lynn Chow after it sat in the work fridge from yesterdays night shift and you are gokng to finish it off tonight...) these combos didnt have that, you could clearly and brightly distinguish each vegetable with the star veg holding the most pronounced note. The onions on the sweet and sour pork were powerful... and by the way, the pineapple in it was crazy good. The broccoli in the beef and broccoli was perfectly al-dente and popped, the chicken chow mien was crunchy and the rice had an excellent hint of sesame.

Our total with tip was mid $60 and we were both very full.

- Service: was among the best ive ever had in reflection (between all three North American Countries and Europe) she was just perfectly attentive and had great situational awareness. 10/10.

- ambience/atmosphere: after coming from sense of Tokyo for a gift card (where I would now give a 8/10 for ambience as they have updated their interior to reflect a far more traditional japanese feel) I would give this restaurant a 6.5/10 for ambience as it needs to be dressed up to reflect a traditional chinese feel (my opinion). Seating was comfy and the place is clean, I just like an ethnic restaurant to reflect a sense of that culture. 6.5/10.

-Food: It is among the best chinese Ive had. I dont know if it is msg or just that dang good. I didnt get an msg headache afterwards so im pretty sure its just that dang good. Veg was cooked perfectly, flavors were great and food seemed to be prepared fresh. 8.9/10

-Cant comment on the washroom, I didnt get to visit it...lol sorry for those that enjoyed the last bathroom review.

Overall 8.5/10“

“Best Chinese food we have had in NB. Fresh perfectly cooked vegetables, big serving size for the money, quick service even though busy and friendly staff.“

“Min & June have been serving delicious food for our family for 30 plus years, excellent food, excellent service, always!“

“The food is absolutely delicious—great job! The meat is especially good: the pork is excellent, the egg rolls are spot on, and the broccoli is perfectly crispy. Yum!
The only small thing for me is the rice—it’s a bit dry and slightly undercooked. I’d love it to be a little softer.
The portions are generous, which is always a plus! I’m also really happy to see that the owner’s website (linked on Google Maps) now offers online ordering—such a great improvement. Nicely done!
It would be even better to add photos of all the dishes on the website—it really makes choosing easier. And one more suggestion: a new, bright, modern sign above the restaurant could really help attract more customers.
I’ll definitely be back!“

“Love the Food very clean and Wonton soup is delicious“

“Linn Chau chattered our wedding today and it was flawless! Thank you so much for everything and I cannot recommend them enough!“
