Reviews for New China in Irvington, NY
DISAPPOINTING! We tried the restaurant for the first time last night in search of a new local place and were VERY dissatisfied.... The egg drop wonton soup was like eating Jello, the soup noodles were stale, the vegetable lo mein was tasteless, and the shrimpwith garlic was goopy and the shrimp (which was mealy and clearly had been frozen) was off-tasting. We won't be trying this fora second time, I'm sorry to say. Read more
Outstanding Chinese takeout. The food is tasty, the ingredients are fresh and the recipes are of that of a high-rated, full... service restaurant quality. Great scallion pancakes, fried rice (that is not greasy) and everything is made-to-order how welike it. Read more
This place is a real gem. The Thai specials and curry dishes are excellent, the veggies are generous and not overcooked, and I... prefer their chicken-broccoli over my former manhattan neighborhood?s favorite takeout. If you prefer sugary/gloopy Americanized?Chinese? fare, you will be disappointed, just go somewhere else. But if you want tasty fresh takeout that approaches cleaneating, give this little spot a try.

Will never return. Ordered two roast pork with veggie lunch specials and received two shrimp dishes. Called back and spoke to a... woman and explained the issue. I asked THREE TIMES if they would like me to return the wrong order. Never received a yes or no.I returned to get my correct order which was not made and would not be made until I returned incorrect food. Now had to make twotrips to my home and back for TWO mistakes that NEW CHINA made. They check food and THROW IT AWAY! I asked, "after all that youjust throw it away?" My brother owns an Italian restaurant and would OF COURSE ask to see incorrect order, but would then tellcustomers keep the wrong order AND what you wanted as sign of good faith. Lady at New China gives me ONE free soda can and tellsme to take FREE sauces. You clearly do not know what good customer service is. New China just lost a customer. Read more
I was really surprised at how bad their food was. We ordered sesame chicken and it was soggy and lacked flavor. The house... special fried rice with beef has small minces of beef that were barely noticeable (I literally had to search through it to finda piece) and filled with bulk veggies (not the good kind). We ordered crab Rangoon and instead got some other sort of friedwonton filled with meat. All in all I wouldn?t recommend this place at all. Read more
Food is great. But they are skimpy with additional stuff that seems standard.. like utensils, sauces, dipping sauce for scallion... pancakes (arguably what makes the pancake so good), etc. We had to demand the dipping sauce one time, like.. seriously demandit. BUT, food is delicious. Read more
I have eaten at places from coast to coast, full disclosure have not been to a Michelin star rated restaurant, but this is a... hidden gem, his pad Thai, his house special with basil is to die for for. Nothing disappoints if u know what u are ordering. Idon't like sweet food and he knows it. My $0.02!! P.s. his hot and sour soup I have travelled from the Midwest just to have it.No conflict of interest and I have not been paid to comment. Read more
Awful! Attention was really bad in all possible ways! It took so long for them to process my order, then my credit card was... charged with a price belonging to a different order (they exceeded $20+) and when I notice it, I was given ?the change? in cashwith torn bills. Rice and chicken were tasteless and onions tasted like unwashed. First and last visit! Read more
