New China Resturant

Out of the few Chinese food spots that deliver to Penn State students, this is the best one. Their food is bomb. They even delivered to me 10 minutes before closing once. And the delivery guy is always cool. Never actually went inside though.

New China was the worst Chinese restaurant I’ve ever been too. I ordered general tso’s chicken with fried rice and an egg roll. Instead of serving me chicken, they served me cat. Yes you heard me right. I received general tso’s kitten. They also served me an egg roll with a BITE out of it. Not only that, but my delivery was 45 minutes late which is what really pissed me off. After driving to the store and nicely asking for a refund, they told me I was a liar and that I had bitten the egg roll, refused claims of serving me cat, and told me never to come back to their restaurant. 0 stars.

Food is fine. Delievery service is awful: last time they were fine delivering to where I lived which was like 5 min away now they’re telling me it’s too far and I live even closer

Extremely rude owner. Penn State students are suppose to get 10% discount, but it never is 10% (considering they are Asians they can’t do math, shame). Food is good quality, and in good portion. I guess if you don’t care about customer care it is a good place to get take out.

No air conditioning just a fan very uncomfortable. Staff smoke and the fan circulates tobacco smell throughout the restaurant. Staff cooked our order but did not serve us while waited at a table instead they ate their diner while ignoring us. Bathrooms dirty. But food good I would only order take out. 1 star service 4 star food

Ok, Ok, Ok.
My search has ended!
I relunctantly tried New China, located in the Giant shopping center in Middletown, right next to Blockbuster and Midtown Pizza. Boy, am I glad I did. I was about to give up on Harrisburg Chinese restaurants, but this place may just have one of the best takeout Chinese food I have tried anywhere. We got the combination dishes which run from $ 6.50-$ 7.50 and include an egg roll. Before I ordered I asked about the Hot & Spicy Beef dish, which wasn’t a combo, but I wanted an egg roll, so I didn’t get it. They had the beef schzeuan combination so I ended up ordering that, but she gave me the Hot & Spicy Beef combo anyway! They were fast, took less then 10 mintues to make. I was happy leaving needless to say.
When i got home, wow. The portions while not huge, definitely is enough to fill you up. But what impressed me was the freshness. The vegetables were crisp. The spices were perfect. The beef was tasty, tender and there was no trace of mystery or fat. I wish I had ordered 2. Even upon opening the carton, you could tell the food was fresh and just different. I dont know what they do differently then the others but this is the only Chinese place I will patronize unless future visits disappoint. I sure hope it’s this way everytime. BTW, the chicken with garlic sauce is equally impressive.
AND, THEY ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS. AMAZING.
My search is done!
For now.
