Pretty tasty, nothing special. Very prompt and inexpensive. Will order from here again.

Surprisingly tasty old-school Chinese food — when it comes to the basics(chicken and broccoli, pork lo mein, fried dumplings, et al) this place does it right. But definitely order take-out as the venue is hugely depressing: sad fluorescent lights and dingy yellow booths.

Best Chinese food around. Not sure what everyone else is talking about. Everything from the wonton soup, to the crab Rangoons(don’t forget the red sauce) to the general tso’s chicken is on point. However, I would recommend getting delivery or takeout since the inside of new China has the feel of Rikers Island.

Called for delivery. N. friendly woman on phone. Was delivered quickly; we are nearby. One of the dishes had chicken instead of beef as ordered. Called and spoke to a young man, and he told us to bring it back! I told him we ordered delivery, so we could avoid going out. I told him I thought the delivery person should come back and give us the correct meal and we would give the wrong one back. He said ‘fine’, but his tone was irritated. No sorry for the inconvenience, no nothing. Then I asked who I was speaking with, so if there was a problem I could say I spoke to them, and he got snarky and evasive. So I asked him«What is your name» and he finally told me Andrew. I wasn’t irritated before this, and got so much attitude and laziness back. All this to deal with and the food wasn’t even good. My husband and I had it years ago, and it was flavorful, which allows one to overlook the extremely dated appearance inside. Would never be place we would choose to eat for that reason. Now everything was bland. Bland won-ton soup, bland beef w/broccoli, bland Kung Pao beef. Kung Pao is supposed to be spicy, and it would not be expensive to use red chili flake for heat. Even the pork fried rice wasn’t good. It was dry, and had almost no pork, onions and peas in it. It is sad when you can make better fried rice etc. at home, which is what I will do next time. This food is not hard to make, they would just have to use more ingredients. Makes it seem that they are being stingy with ingredients to cut cost. We can’t understand how you would save much money by excluding those cheap ingredients though. What a disappointment. It seems apparent that they don’t care about making the effort anymore. Not in their food or their service. I hope they read this and realize that if they don’t start making better food and giving less attitude, they won’t have customers. We won’t be returning. Sadly, the best part was the fortune cookies. The only positive was that the delivery woman said she was sorry, even though It wasn’t shared by the people who own/run the business. They should worry b/c there is a new H-Mart in Hartsdale where it is easy to get ingredients to make better on their own. Which is just what I will do from now on.

Decent Chinese restaurant in Hastings on Hudson. Place is cold and has very primitive interior to quick Chinese food places. We ordered general tsp’s chicken and it was good. They need heat inside this place as it was freezing and very uncomfortable to sit on cold seats and tables.

The food arrived late, oily, soggy and completely tasteless. Its not the first time I have ordered from here, but I keep hoping it will be better.

Not a fan. I recently moved to the area and I really wanted this place to be great because of how convenient it is. The food was extremely mediocre. My chicken and broccoli tasted like it had been cooked in a fish pan. I may give this place another chance just because it is so convenient but that’s the only reason.

As far as Chinese takeout goes, this place is a little on the mediocre side… I’ve had much better Chinese takeout when I lived in Southwest Yonkers. I mainly go here if I have a serious Chinese take-out craving and don’t want to travel too far… but I am not *nearly* as satisfied as I’d want to be. The fried chicken wings and rib tips taste a bit… off(not as in stale, but just not good compared to others). Both are one and done deals for me. Scallion pancakes are okay… a little greasy though. The chef’s specialties are a little better, such as the General Tso’s chicken. Out of the egg rolls– I’d say the spring rolls are the best. They’re light and crispy. One thing that annoys me is that this place does NOT honor the prices printed on their menus, and you’re often charged more than expected. For example– I ordered the regular dumplings, which should have been $ 3.95. However, I was charged $ 4.95 for them. When I asked the cashier about the price on the menu, she said that it was a typo. Which is fine, but then they should have either corrected the errors or demanded new menus with the correct price. This had happened on one other occasion, and again, the menus were blamed for the discrepancy in price. It gets two stars… Like I said, I’ve had way better in my old hood.

The food was decent. The store was leaving a bit to be desired. It’s definitely a take-out joint. The plastic booths were all sticky from who knows when. The food was pretty good though. The dumplings were tasty. Not the best, but good. The General Tso’s chicken was also good. The sauce was watery though, but it was pretty good. For a small local place it wasn’t half bad. I’d get food here again and probably will.

Pretty decent Chinese food — standard Chinese take-out/delivery, nothing special but nothing bad. The delivery was very fast. The only real negatives is that they don’t give you chopsticks or utensils, and they only gave me 2 packets of soy sauce. I guess I know for next time that you have to ask for these«extras»? Also, they don’t take American Express. That’s not a deal breaker, but it’s worth mentioning.

I have been living in Hastings for about 5 years now and have never had a bad experience with this place. Lets not kid ourselves Chinese food isn’t really known for being all that good… but this place is way above average. Very quick delivery and will also take special requests, such as making some dishes extra spicy, which is always a plus. They are like the postal service and will deliver in any weather condition. Cheap, reliable, and good

Decent food, quick delivery. A good choice for fast food Chinese delivery.

Most chinese takeout joints wouldn’t even register at two stars. They often leave me feeling bloated and regretting the decision to even bother with them. New China in Hastings is a cut above those. The food tastes fresher on the whole and the sauces are not as thick and heavy. The service is generally friendly, eager to please, and accommodating to individual requests. Also, if you are going to pick up food there, they are cool with you using coupons off the menu there One caveat: Unless you’re in a real pinch for time, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend eating there. There are a few tables but it’s definitely not a place designed for eating in.
