Food was good. Your average Chinese- American food. Very weird that they still have a covid wall up in the takeout area. I had to put my the card in a pot which was really silly and very awkward.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Adam C
It is carry-out only. The food is great, and the owners are extremely friendly. The only negative I can think of is that their prices have gone up at least 5 times in the past 2 years.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — S Green
Thank you to the wonderful owner who made accommodations with my order. That gesture was greatly noticed and appreciated. My food was very good. Hope to order again when traveling back to this area😊!

It's a great place to get good Chinese food. I'm a fan of their house special egg foo young and chow mei fun. I've tried plenty of other things from the menu, and I've never experienced anything I didn't like. As for people griping about their prices going up... that's not a small business' fault. Look into Austrian vs Keynesian economics. Study the free market, and be aware that the private banking system known as The Federal Reserve is used as a printing press to devalue the US Dollar, if you want to understand the reason for inflation. It's not New China's fault. I've never had an issue with the person on the phone getting my order wrong. It's been correct every time. Yes, this place is still stuck in the days of Covid and you have to stand in an isolation room and get your food through a stupid portal. I agree with others, this is ridiculous, but what you gonna do? It's either that, or don't eat Chinese food.
