Thank you for your response. I plan to try a carryout option next time. I apologize if my previous comments seemed harsh; I just wasn’t expecting the level of service we received. I would have appreciated a clearer explanation of the situation at the time, as we felt a bit confused about what was happening.
When we were advised not to order a particular item unless we really wanted it, it made us feel like the kitchen either didn't enjoy preparing it or that we might be a burden by ordering it. I understand you were operating with a small team of four, which is quite challenging.
I admit I may have misunderstood some of the information, but prior to ordering, the customer service was exc...
I absolutely adore this restaurant—it truly feels like a family. Alice is the friendliest hostess you'll ever meet, and Michael, the waiter, is a delight. He goes out of his way to ensure that everyone has everything they need, and he is both quick and dependable. The chef may be back in the kitchen keeping a low profile, but his amazing dishes speak for themselves. Come and enjoy a meal at this wonderful place!
We’ve been dining in and ordering takeout from this restaurant for many years, and the food is consistently fantastic. Occasionally, the service can be a little slow when they’re busy, but the waitstaff is always attentive. I really love the interior as well. The drinks are also excellent! Thank you, New China, for delivering delicious food to us all these years!
Incredible food! I visited New China for the first time, and even though its exterior is rather plain, the quality of the food was exceptional. I’ll definitely be coming back many times. Despite the abundance of upscale dining choices in Birmingham and Bloomfield, this has quickly become my favorite Chinese restaurant. Forget about PF Chang's and Chen Chow!

This restaurant has been around for quite some time, and it certainly shows. The interior could benefit from some updating and re-decorating to compete with newer establishments. Unfortunately, both the food and service were just average. Additionally, the portion sizes and quality of the ingredients could be improved.
This is the best Chinese food in the country! My family has been dining here since the 1980s, and I always eagerly anticipate my meals here. Some of the must-try dishes include shrimp toast, egg drop soup, egg rolls, and almond boneless chicken. Alice is amazing, and she runs a fantastic place at The New China.
The sauce is absolutely the star of the show here. Besides Alice's unique and delightful hospitality, what keeps bringing me back is the sauce for the General Tso's chicken that I absolutely love. It's perfectly balanced—not too sweet, not too thick, and certainly not just ketchup. I can't get enough of it!
The prices are fair, and I sampled the fried rice, which came in a modest but satisfactory portion. The egg roll was somewhat greasy, and sadly, I didn't find any meat in it. There are several excellent Chinese restaurants in the area, so I'm not sure if I would return.

I really enjoyed the food, and the atmosphere was soothing and inviting! It's easy to understand why they've been around for more than fifty years.
