"This used to be an easy 5 star rating; I've been a loyal and frequent customer of New China House for about 15 years! They've consistently been my favorite restaurant in this entire area, and the only local Chinese restaurant I patronized that's how much I loved the food I used to get. I absolutely LOVED their Monk's menu (particularly the Monk's Beef (seitan) with Broccoli, which I nearly always ordered), and the Crispy Eggplant! The Vegetable Chow Mai Fun was tasty, too. I also always included the Vegetable Spring Rolls and Vegetable Dumplings (fried) with my orders. Because I'd been ordering the Monk's Beef with Broccoli for so many years, I didn't even know about the Crispy Eggplant until about a year ago... when I promptly fell in love with it, and ordered it repeatedly thereafter (alongside the Monk's). I cannot BEGIN to convey my disappointment when they suddenly stopped offering the Crispy Eggplant. However, I assumed they still had my old favorites... but no! The ENTIRE Monk's category has been removed from the menu! AND even the Vegetable Dumplings have disappeared, too! Alllllll the dishes the only dishes I loved are gone! New China House, say it ain't so! Please bring them back!"

"This restaurant is my top choice. I prefer it over all other restaurants I have been to. I always make sure to visit whenever I can. When I want a nice meal, this is the first place I think of. They have the best variety of food and a wide selection of dishes. The staff is courteous and the ambiance is great. The prices are also reasonable. I happily recommend this spot to my friends."

"I decided to try a new Chinese place for a special night. Overall I was disappointed in my pickup order, and was expecting much better food based on the favorable reviews and the prices. I paid over $30 for 2 entrees, one with “fried” rice, and an order of cream cheese wontons. The wontons were good, but the rest of the food not so much. The sesame chicken was barely ok but too much breading and it was sitting in over 1/2” of oil in the bottom of the container and most of the pieces were soggy. I poured the oil out before giving to the person it was ordered for. The “fried”rice was nothing more than yellow colored rice with a few peas and tiny carrot pieces and specks of onions. The schezwan beef was the worst. There was nothing schezwan about it, as far as flavor. The strongest flavor was of oil, and I don’t know what kind but it didn’t taste good at all. The beef must have been cheap and soaked in oil to make it tender because it had NO texture of beef, it was just slimy from oil. The vegetables in it were nothing special, didn’t seem fresh. The sauce was terrible. It wasn’t spicy at all and the taste was unrecognizable except for the oil again. I guarantee you the oil they use is very cheap, probably canola. They need to cut back on the oil and add some flavor and good spices. A lot of these reviews have got to be fake, because I can’t believe there would be many raving reviews for their food. I won’t be returning. Very disappointed."

"I'm currently staying in a hotel from out of town and ordered from this restaurant the following: 2 liter of soda Wonton Soup Lemon Chicken.Instead of a 2 liter I received 3 cans of Coke and was informed they were out of 2 liters. Doing the quick and dirty math a 2 liter is ~67.6 fl oz. A Can of soda is 12 oz. 67/12 5.58. So I should have received a minimum of 5 cans for cost, technically 5.5. So 5 cans or 6.I also received no flatware with which to eat my meal. No chopsticks, no fork, no spoon, nothing.Luckily I was able to go to the lobby and get some disposable flatware, but that meant coming all the way up to my room, unpacking the food, realizing I had nothing to eat it with, and having to go back down to the lobby.Not a huge deal in itself, but when coupled with the soda issue (especially since the soda is already overpriced, but again stuck in a hotel and figured I'd eat the cost to have it delivered rather than making a trip out to the store)."

"Googled the restaurant and the website came up showing spring rolls 2 for 1.10 dollars. I ordered 6. When I got there, the lady told me that my order was 14.90. That’s 11.00 more than I expected. I had 14 dollars on me, and I told the lady I apologize: and that I only had 14 dollars. I told she will have to take one order off. She tells me to give her the 14 dollars. I did. She spoke to the cook in another language. The cook looked confused, and she said something again. She then came and handed me a bag. I look in the bag when I got in the car and there was only 5 spring rolls. The spring rolls were 2 for 4.90. She shorted me a spring roll because I was 90 cents off. I came back in and she was laughing. A lady was at the counter confused about the price that she was being told. She said that didn’t give me the other one because I was short. But she was charging me 4.00 dollars for 1 spring roll. I got my money back and gave her back the 5 spring rolls. Don’t go here unless you want to be over charged and cheated."

"I have never been so insulted in my life!!I ordered delivery from this restaurant and spent almost $100. When the food was delivered, I noticed we were missing a meal, so I immediately called the restaurant just to be told that I was lying…. Like, she literally said that I was lying. After going back-and-forth with her for what felt like forever, she offered me a refund, but I didn’t need a refund. I needed the meal because one of my kids couldn’t eat because we were missing his food. She told me that she could not deliver the food because they were getting ready to close early. I told her that I needed the food because one of my kids is missing dinner, and if I was lying about not receiving the meal and was trying to steal or get over on them, then I would have been happy with a refund of money, but that was not the case I needed the food, NOT the money. I asked to speak to the manager or the owner, and she stated she was the owner.Getting into the food review, it was mediocre at best, and I have definitely had better. I am not just saying this because of the way I was treated. The food really wasn’t that good at all. I will NEVER order from this restaurant again."

"A mixed bag this time around: Order was correct; delivery was timely and courteous, no problem there; and their Wonton Eggdrop Soup was wonderful as always. However, the other items were not up to Spring Garden's usual excellent standard. The meat in the White Meat General Tso's Chicken was very dry, tough, and skimpy. And while the shrimps in the Shrimp w/ Lobster Sauce were fresh and ample sized, the sauce wasn't what we expected not spoiled or bad, just odd tasting. Maybe we're just used to a different type of Lobster Sauce, or maybe Spring Garden was just having an off day, who knows? In any event they're still on our go to list and we'd definitely be happy to order from them again; we just hope next time they'll be back to their usual five star quality."

"I’ve ordered twice through Grubhub and both times the food was delivered ahead of schedule, fresh and piping hot. The egg drop soup and hot and sour soup (spicy were both tasty. Shrimp egg foo young was loaded with shrimp and deliciously filling with steamed rice and topped with the brown gravy. The shrimp with vegetables had a nice blend of broccoli, carrots, snow peas, water chestnuts and baby corn, all covered in a brown sauce. Nice to have a good Chinese takeout place nearby!"

"We dined in once and had a great experience, so we decided to try delivery. Unfortunately, our order was delivered to the wrong house across the street, despite that home having clear house numbers. They simply left the food outside. Fortunately, a neighbor noticed and called us to check if we had placed an order. The delivery driver had ripped off the receipt, so there was no way to identify who the order belonged to. We contacted the restaurant, but they didn't seem very concerned about the situation."

"PLEASE DON?T GO HERE! Since they have been under new management it is terrible. I waited 45 mins at dine in and only received drinks. At least appetizers should have came. I knew something was up because I heard the staff in back arguing and the serversaid they were only serving food in to-go and plastic things instead of regular dishes because they didn?t have any. It was afew people who were waiting on take out and dining in who inquired about when there food was going to be ready. I went and askedabout when my food was coming and the young girl said it was done someone had to bring it out, which I knew was a lie because asmany times as she had been back she would(should)have brought it out. It never came we walked out and saved $60! They need toreplace the young girl who is the server she needs more experience communicating with customers. Don?t waste your time or moneyon small portions. Go to the sub shop next door or the other Chinese place in that shopping center !"

"I had a terrible experience with the customer service and delivery at this restaurant. The manager was rude, and the delivery person was equally unfriendly. The food was just average, and the prices were quite high. The delivery person refused to come into the building on three separate occasions simply because he didn't want to take the elevator. Communication was difficult, as both the manager and the delivery person struggled with English. Instead of being understanding or apologetic, the manager yelled at me. I will never order from this place again."

"I absolutely adore this restaurant! Having it just a few doors down from my workplace is incredibly convenient. The staff is fantastic, and the food is much better than most Chinese restaurants in the Falls Church/Fairfax area, which is surprising given the plethora of Asian dining options available nearby. I appreciate that they have both Chinese and Japanese menus, allowing for a great mix-and-match experience. Plus, their online ordering system is very convenient, and they always have the food ready on time!"

"The food does take some time because they prepare everything to order, rather than just dishing it out like many other Chinese restaurants. Sure, you can get your food quickly, but if you want it done right, it’s worth the wait—and honestly, it doesn’t take that long! So take a moment to appreciate the good things in life! I visited just before they completed renovations, and although the woman serving was having a rough day, we struck up a conversation and she was really sweet. She even gave me a generous portion of ginger at no extra charge. It’s amazing how much positivity can come from putting positive energy into the world. I highly recommend anyone searching for delicious food to give this place a try. I'm looking forward to going back today to check out the renovations!"

"I really enjoy the sauce and the vegetables they use, and I love their egg rolls as well. I've tried food from China Fun, and it was terrible in comparison to Hunan. I've also eaten at Star in Fruitland, which isn't bad, but their egg rolls have an aftertaste. For now, I'll stick with Hunan until I discover something better. My next stop will be Number One Chinese."

"Ordered the pad Tai with extra vegetables and it was outstanding…Fresh vegetables, good portions of white meat chicken, pork and shrimp…excellent seasoning and not like so many places who have a plate of noodles but you have to find littleProtein pieces under a noodle…you can’t go wrong with this one..one of the best! Keep this chef as he /she knows how to season Pad Tai with a light, flavorful yellow curry without the overpowering sweetness that so many restaurants load up on…"
