At that point there was nothing to be done, it's been poured already, I wasn't going to make a fuss. I was told by the server he had seen bottles of reserve before but not for a while. The menu should be updated, also if a manger is involved with helping of finding the bottled something should have been addressed by them. I specifically came for this bottle, I would have opted for something else but trusted the word of the server about the manager. Definitely check your bottle before they open, there might be more false advertising. Was highly disappointed for a high ranked wine menu supposedly.

I recently ordered dinner from China House, and once again it did not disappoint! We ordered two Sweet & Sour Chicken combos with white rice and one combo with fried rice, and everything arrived fresh, hot, and perfectly cooked. The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender inside, and the sauce had just the right balance of sweet and tangy. The portions were generous with plenty of food for a great value. The service was fast, friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even better. Whether dining in or picking up an order, the staff always greets you warmly and makes you feel genuinely appreciated. The ambience is cozy and inviting, clean tables and a relaxed atmosphere that makes it enjoyable to sit down with family or grab a quick bite. It's the kind of local spot you're happy to return to again and again. Highly recommend China House for great food, great people, and a consistently excellent experience! read more

The chicken satay had no flavor, the Pad Thai was cold, the noodles mushy, and there was zero flavor. The peanuts were stale. The ice tea was terrible. The service was slow, for us anyway.

I'm a big fan of Chinese food and usually try to eat it a couple of times a month. I'm not sure if…read moreit's a positive or a negative, but strip mall Chinese food is pretty standard. The menus all look the same, the choices are all the same, and the restaurant layout always looks the same, regardless of this town city or state you happen to be in the only thing that seems to have variety is the actual quality and taste of the food. With everything else looking identical, it's easy to get load into thinking that they're all the same, but from experience, I can tell you there are some really bad ones out there. Fortunately, New China is a good one. They give you quality food at a good price point and they have recipes that have good flavor, just enough spice and variety to make it taste good. I'm still looking for that stellar strip mall Chinese place, but in the interim if you need just a good Chinese fix New China's a great place to try. They are friendly and quick. Worth a trip.

We came around 6 for dinner and the space inside is pretty neat. I liked the decorations, it was so colorful and bright. It's pretty in there. I ordered the Pad Thai with Chicken at medium heat, and my friend ordered a tofu curry. Honestly, I felt like the medium heat was a bit mild for me. I think I could've ordered hot and it would've been fine. The noodles were good, sauce was nice and the veggies tasted fresh. Wait time for food wasn't long at all. My Pad Thai was good, but for me I wish the sauce was a little bit more savory. Don't get me wrong, I love the classic sweet and savory sauce but this dish ended up leaning more sweet rather than having that balance. So if you prefer a slightly sweeter Pad Thai, then this would be the place for you. We also had these rice crackers with a very thick sauce that was slightly sweet that was so tasty. The crackers were very crunchy and had a nice crisp. It paired so well with the sauce on the side, it was nice. Service was excellent. It helped that it wasn't super busy when we arrived. I wanted to order a boba to-go, but I genuinely didn't have anymore room haha. I was so full. I don't think I would order a Pad Thai for me, but I'd come back to try their other noodle dishes and definitely a boba and dessert.

I think this restaurant may have once again changed ownership…read more Over the past year or so, there seems to be a diminished interest in quality and service. The food is generally okay, but noticeably lesser. I still like their Egg Rolls, the Subgum Wonton, and their Wonton soup is really good, as are the Singapore Noodles. Lately though I find that the carrot slices in stir fry dishes are cut thicker than with previous cooks and are thereby more raw - if that's your thing, great! It's just not mine. And some of the other dishes I've ordered have been less tasty. Also, I would suggest never ordering anything with "crab". I don't know if the distributor that services them only offers this one crab substitute, but it's bleeding terrible.

After I ordered on DoorDash, I called the restaurant and asked them to make it a little spicy because I hate an orange chicken that is too sweet. The person who answered the phone said the sauce was already made, but he would add a side of hot sauce. I was expecting some packet of gross hot sauce. When it arrived, I tasted the hot sauce and it was obviously homemade. It had chunks of chili paste mixed in with the sauce It was so yummy. If you get orange chicken or really anything else, you HAVE to ask for their hot sauce. Along with the orange chicken I ordered one spring roll and one chicken eggroll. Two servings of orange chicken with rice and a salad with ginger dressing with $9.95! Also, I don't know what "white sauce" is in Chinese food but they have it. I tasted it and it was quite yummy. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS. Will be ordering again.

So there was a good-sized parking lot with alot of parking spaces. I got the Chicken Pad Thai at medium spice and a Thai Tea with boba. My friend and I also split eggrolls. I have to say, those eggrolls were phenomenal. They were just perfect in every way, they had a very crispy golden texture on the outside. The filling was very flavorful, the meat was seasoned well. I loved everything about it and out of the many Asian restaurants I've been to in the area, their eggrolls are my favorite and at the top of my list. My Chicken Pad Thai was decent. The spice level was perfect, flavor was good, and the portion size was very nice. For me, I feel like flavor could've been a little stronger, it just felt weak to me. My entree was okay, not bad at all by any means, but it just wasn't my favorite. It didn't stand out to me. I'd probably go to another place for their Pad Thai rather than here. The Thai Tea itself was delicious, it was sweet, creamy, and still had that Thai Tea flavor that shined through. However the boba/tapioca pearls were very tough. It was very tough and hard to chew. It didn't taste like a fresh batch, they weren't soft and chewy at all so I'm assuming it's from an older batch from a couple hours ago. The inside was alright, there were many tables to sit and eat at. Once we got inside, the server told us to sit anywhere we'd like and order at the front. But once I made my way to the cashier to order, the floor was very sticky. It was noticeable with every step I took. We had a decent experience, but I'm not sure I'd return.
