I hadn't eaten from New China Hut in a long time but I was downtown and Chinese sounded good so I placed an order for the Empress Chicken dinner but paid a little extra to substitute a combination fried rice for the chicken fried rice. The empress chicken and fried rice were really good with generous portions for both as well as a good mixture of shrimp, beef, chicken and pork in the rice. I've had better egg rolls though and wasn't a fan of the sweet and sour dipping sauce that came in a cup with the meal. It was just a little too sweet for my taste. The meal was good overall and the takeout order was prepared really fast. The staff were nice on the phone and when I was picking up my order, but at a cost of $20 I will probably consider going to other places next time I'm in the mood for Chinese takeout. read more

New China Hut - 501. Empress Chicken Dinner - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

I love Chinese food and decided to switch things up and try someplace new. Unfortunately, I can't say I will be a returning customer at New China Hut. We ordered take-out on a Saturday night. They said it would take 30-40 minutes to be delivered but it didn't come until over an hour later. We ordered the sweet and sour chicken dinner. The chicken was warm and crispy but only came with one tiny container of sweet and sour sauce which was barely enough for half the chicken. It also came with an egg roll and TON of white rice. Half the platter was rice and it came with another small box of rice on the side. The rice was on the dry side too. We also ordered garden fresh vegetables. I can't say they seemed very fresh though. To me, it was equivalent to the bottom of a bag of frozen vegetables that were microwaved a bit too long. read more

We order from here at least once every 1-2 months. We have 5 adults and 3 kids so we usually order 7 entrees. The food is amazing delicious EVERY time. Large portions. Fabulous seasoning. I don't know what other people are talking about. All I know is we drive from Sugar grove to pick up food here. The salt and pepper shrimp, orange chicken, sesame chicken, and house lo mien, shrimp fried rice, egg drop soup - all of it was delicious. Only thing I'm missing is the wonton strips for my egg drop soup and my 5yo granddaughter was disappointed that we didn't get fortune cookies. (Her dad told her she'd get over it. I agree ) We will read more

I ordered 4 large containers of food 20 minutes before closing on a saturday and the food came out in less than 10 minutes, piping hot and delicious haven't been to this place in a while but they definitely hit the spot just like i remember :) read more

Better than expected. It has gotten a lot of bad reviews but the last time it turned out fairly okay. New China Hut has a few locations and this one is in Aurora on River Street. Has pretty typical Chinese restaurant items. The menu also has a few vegetarian friendly choices including tofu. Came in recently to get carryout. It seems like it gets most business this way as there's never anyone inside. They seem to prefer this. A lot of times we came by the inside is closed. There's only a couple of inside tables. I ordered the Kung Pao Tofu at lunch. It's $11.35 for the only portion. This is one of the few vegetarian friendly choices here, and the only with tofu and not just vegetables. It only comes in the one size, as large. This has green peppers, mushrooms, onions, pea pods, and peanuts in a spicy Szechuan sauce. After eating it, both of us agreed it was much better than expected. The freshness others had problems from wasn't an issue. Good lunch meals at least the last time we came here. It has basic typical Chinese stuff and just a few vegetarian friendly options. This place has inside seating but mostly is takeout. read more

The food had very little flavor and chicken was mushy. The rice was not fried rice- it had zero vegetables or eggs it tasted like rice with soy sauce. I couldn't figure out what meat was in the egg roll but I definitely couldn't went without. They had great customer service and I was pleasantly surprised with their delivery service. read more

I've been a regular customer for years, coming in multiple times a month. Due to a miscommunication my order was incorrect. I kindly asked the lady at the counter If she could change my order to the correct thing( that I order EVERY time I order, and she refused. She told me it wasn't her problem and if I wanted something else to just pay for it. I again tried to explain it was a mistake and reminded her that I am there all the time. I asked her if she really wanted to loose a regular like this and she said Yes! So she has. There's a lot of place to get good Chinese in Aurora. Go anywhere else. They do not appreciate customers here. read more

Oh my lawd! Today I tried the " spicy chicken with pepper and garlic sauce, lo mein". It's so freaking good! Spicy and flavorful. I walked over, placed the order, and a few minutes later I had a delicious lunch to bring home. Service was fast and perfect for my work from home day. The lunch special comes with an egg roll and fortune cookie. Family friendly atmosphere. John is always pleasant at the register. He knows everyone and their usual orders. Highly recommend! read more

Just ordered some beef, broccoli and and two orders of eggrolls came out $35 and some change little ridiculous as far as the food. I'm sure they get better food in prison even the white rice was horrible and the guy said 35 to 45 minutes and it was an hour and 10 minutes read more

I ordered vegetable fried rice and extra added shrimp. THE RICE HAD NO VEGETABLES & barely any shrimp. I swear it appeared pre-used, not fresh and old! I was scared to eat it! I've ordered veggie rice before and it use to be so refreshing with tons of raw veggies, the best I've ever had. Not sure if it's new owners but you don't ever serve food this awful to anyone! Never again! Taking my money else where. read more

I called in to place an order for a lunch special since I didn't want a big order. It's only for one person. I was told the lunch special was over at three. I said I no longer wanted to place an order. A woman immediately hung up the phone extremely rude will no longer come here. read more

I ordered through Uber eats, one of the items was Mongolian beef. I called the restaurant because there very little meat for a large and was 90% onion. I got placed on hold after explaining to the first person. A woman then gets on the phone and starts yelling at me that they have been in business 20+ years and they didn't make a mistake and that what I got was completely acceptable. Then hung up on me. I was respectful and calm when calling I just wanted a new one made and would have even picked it up. read more

I am sad to say that I was very disappointed with China Hut. I had not been here in about 8 years, and from what I could remember it was always good. today was not! I got the hunan beef and it tasted weird - not like what I get from other places. My brother got the BBQ pork (both were lunch specials) . He said the pork was like rubber (I tried a piece and agreed) everything was hot and I was really hoping it would be delicious but unfortunately it was not read more

Ordered takeout a few weeks ago from here. I thought the food was excellent. Massive portions for about $10/person. The lunch special can be ordered during dinner time for a small upcharge. Tried to order food from this location last week and was told they are shut down for a few weeks. This is concerning but I hope they figure everything out and open back up. read more

Best Chinese food in aurora. I've been going here for years and I've never been disappointed, all the employees are friendly and welcoming. Everyone leaving bad comments are just bitching cuz they don't have money and are broke. read more

Location sucks!! You spend $40 on food ask for an additional sauce and they want to charge $1... on top of that food quality has decreased I do not recommend it at all!! Horrible. read more

Chicken meal was literally made up of half onions (I separated them out because it was so noticeable. I would consider that a way to rip people off and make up the majority of the meal with the cheapest ingrediwnt. What wasn't onions tasted really bad as well. The chicken was unrecognizable as chicken. Just really, really bad everything. I'm actually surprised this place is still open. Will drive the extra 5 minutes to East China Inn next time. Incredibly disappointing experience. read more

I ordered in person on a freezing cold day yesterday, 1/5/22 Vegetable Lo Mein and Hot and Sour soup. I paid, left and got to the Paramount Theater where I was working and ready to eat and low and behold, NO SILVERWARE, NAPKINS OR FORTUNE COOKIE. I spent 10 minutes tracking down a fork and had to go upstairs and get a spoon for the soup. No one asked me if I needed any. My glasses were still frozen from walking outside. I called today and talked to the owner and she said you have to tell THEM you need it. She was rude and never even apologized. I guess the "customer is always right" is not practiced there. Pitiful customer service. And because of Covid you couldn't eat there either. The food is good, the owner has a big time attitude. Not I'm sorry and next time I'll comp an egg roll, nothing! Who needs that?! read more

not a bad joint. clean, good food, fast service. A bit pricey but, you do get a tremendous portion of food. Definitely will return.

Bad experience. Ordered through UberEats and was supposed to be sweet & sour chicken with steamed rice. They sent chicken fried rice instead which I don't like. Called New China Hut...they kept putting me on hold, argued with me about what I ordered (UberEATS order showed what I ordered), finally admitted their mistake then asked if I wanted correct rice delivered. I asked fir a credit next time, since the chicken would be cold if waited for the correct rice. They kept asking me to repeat everything then they hung up on me. Food is good but dealing with them in any issue is difficult. read more

Was not impressed. A lot of food, but had weird flavors. Got this combination platter that had fried shrimp--while it was fried I think it would have been better described as a shrimp doughnut read more

Well, this is the most deaths in Chinese place I found in Aurora that's on my way home since I've moved they didn't make two mistakes before and I only did not correct it even when I came back, I don't eat eggs, so I have shrimp fried rice with no egg spicy then when I get home of course it has eggs in it so then she wants me to bring it back. I live in Macgomery. I'm not driving all the way down and I'm not doing it on my day off. I'll bring it back when I go to work. On my way home, so then I just forget about it threw it away cause I'm like I'm not gonna liters in my house smell like egg for 23 days so when I go back in then she's like 00 you didn't bring it back and I'm just like even if I didn't bring it back you noticed that it was eggs in it so it's not like I was lying trying to get a free order, so why would you just give me another order For the inconvenience and give me something that you know I wasn't going to eat but she was in because she's all about her money which I know we all are, but you know you have to treat your customers, especially returning customers, respect and gratitude for them to continue to come to your business and spend their money there The other time they messed up my shrimp, black bean and garlic sauce and gave me shrimp and something in the shrimp were mushy but the last three times I went like I said the food was good I just hate that she's just not like very apologetic, and want to make amends for their mistake read more

On a recent 25 mile bike ride, I made a critical beverage error since it was so hot and humid. With about 5 mile to go I needed water or something immediately! I stopped into this place and asked to buy a water, it was $1.35. I asked if he took apple pay and he said yes. I then asked to buy the water and he refused stating a $5 minimum and said i had to buy food. I was clearly in distress and told him i desperately needed water and he still refused. This place had no compassion!!! Given that the water was marked up about 500% the least he could have done was sell it to me! Or, better yet, just given me a hit from the tap! Not the way to do business!! read more

I'm very particular as to what I like to eat from Chinese restaurants. I stick to what I know best which is chicken fried rice. The "chicken" that this place has to offer in their rice I don't believe is chicken. It looks like it is until you try to pan fry it a little more to make it more well done when you get home. As you all know, if you overcook chicken it becomes dry. As I brown the outside of it, it somehow feels "squishy". I pull it apart and it looks like a bunch of gunk processed and pressed together. I don't know what they use but it is definitely NOT chicken and I think it is gross. I've tried this place twice to see if the second time around was any different and NOPE! It sure wasn't. I'd much rather eat Thai food or better yet, any place that cooks you what they say is in their menu. Not whatever they substitute it with! read more

Was in town for a show. China Hut was close, so we gave it a try. Only 4-5 booths, but sufficient for the time of day I was there. Service was good, food was better than average and prices were decent. I will try again next time in Aurora. read more

I tried calling for an ordered I had placed, the lady was really rude and even hung up the phone on me. The food is great but the customer service is not!! You should never hang up the phone on a customer and talk over the customer and not listen to what they are trying to say. read more

On several occasions, I requested extra egg: I was charged $2.00. However, on several of my orders, there was either no egg or very little. Today, I ordered the vegetable fried rice with extra egg. When I went home and opened the container, I did not see any egg. So I took most of the food out of the container to examine further-- no egg. I returned the to the restaurant and informed the owner, she gets upset, returns my money and says, "I don't want your business." I think there is something fundamentally wrong: I don't need her business to survive; she needs my money to survive her business. the owner is very rude and disrespectful and has a sense of entitlement. She was not giving anything for free: I was paying for a service. I would never recommend this restaurant. read more

Called to order food for pickup. Phone was busy.Called several times and kept getting their voice.Took a drive to the restaurant. Lady was on a personal phone call.This is why their phone was busy! My meal was incomplete. Price is way to high for a incomplete meal.I also noticed they don't wear gloves! Very disappointed!!! read more

I'll start off by saying that the River st. hut is where I've went to for years. I even had a spill in my car and lost all of the gravy from my egg foo young, and the owner gave me a cup of gravy. Unfortunately, Today, I called to add to my order, and specified that the person that asked me to add to my order asked for "A Lot" of sweet sour sauce. They asked me how much. I didn't know, so he said he'd add 10 packs, which I had no problem paying for. $2.30 for 10 packs is what I paid. Specifically asked when I picked up order if my sweet sour was in bag. Assured it was. Drove about 8 miles away. No sauce at all. While my food got cold, I drove to east china hut and asked them for sauce, and got 20 for $1.00. I have a $2.30 credit on River st, even after telling them the extent I had to go to to get what I was assured was in my bag, that I paid extra for. Not even a complimentary couple egg rolls. Just had to share this since I can't enjoy my food. Mistakes happen, but I expected a little more from the only place I've gone for Chinese since 2007. The food is still really exceptional. I just expect more than a My Bad. read more

Very nasty food , it gave me food poisoning the next day. Do not recommend. Stay away

Haven't been here in several months, had it tonight and the quality has decreased. Definitely disappointed because after $38 I end up eating some leftover pizza. Sorry New China Hut, I won't be back. read more

I placed a lunch special order for General tao chicken and crab rangoon for delivery. The price was over $21 which I believe was way over priced for the quality of food. The general Tao was not spicy at all and had a strong orange taste, did they make the wrong item, I believe so. The egg roll was horrible tasting and slimey. I found a long black hair in my crab rangoon cheese mixture and I have red hair so nope not mine. I will not order from here or recommend it to anyone!! read more

New China Hut - the receipt for the restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

First time trying this place, it delivered and all places close had similar reviews. Thus was the WORST greasy chicken fried rice, fake sweet and sour sauce, tasteless battered chicken cubes to cover in sweet syrup sauce(with 3 pineapple squares(sm) and 2 little pieces of green pepper). Basic eggroll and six piece wings that were 3 wings cut in half. The star was just for the delivery time. That was the most disgusting $17.56 + 3.44 tip of a Chinese dinner I have had. Feeling nauseous may go to E.R. read more

Sometimes you see a restaurant and just drive by it imagining it must be mediocre. That's what I did as I drove past the new China Hut #3 on River Street. One day I was on foot and hungry and so I begrudgedly walked in. I ordered some dishes to go. I got home and found the food was clearly fresh and AMAZING!!! Crisp vegetables. Generous portions. Not light on the meat in the entrees. I decided to go back. Maybe it was a fluke? Ordered 3 lunch specials. Very reasonable. Perhaps it was the first time I couldn't finish a Chinese meal! I may have added 3 egg rolls, but still- big servings. Thank you! Don't shrink them!!! You are now my family's go to place for great tasting healthy meals. I wish you success on River Street! I recommend the pepper steak or broccoli beef or chicken beef or... anything else on the menu! The food is obviously cooked to order. Nothing soggy. I appreciate that!!! read more

They have very delicious food. Food is always cooked fresh. We love their lunch specials. My hubby and I always go there. Prices are very affordable. The staff are very friendly. Thank you for being wonderful. Xoxo read more
