New China

Service is unbeatable. I call in my order and the owner recognizes my voice. Always prompt and very polite. Price point is the best around. $ 6 for any choice off the lunch special. Love this place and love the couple than run it.

I love New China! I’ve eaten there about 20 times already and we haven’t known about the place very long. You can’t beat their prices, the staff is wonderful, and everything tastes great. I definitely recommend them, and I’m glad they’re in Powhatan!

Was driving through the area when I found this place. The people that run it were so nice and friendly. The food was just great. Had the seafood delight, bbq ribs and egg roles, it was great would made the 25 minute drive to eat there again. They had their two children there, they were my entertainment and very well behaved.

The food here is always good, the staff is always nice & the prices are perfect! I won’t go anywhere else for Chinese!!!

Being from New York I feel a little biased about chinese food. I was raised in an eclectic city where I could eat food where each ethnicity enjoyed it themselves. We ate Chinese about once every two week and we knew where to and not to eat. We have lived in Virginia for six years now and have found it very difficult to find good ethinic food. If you are looking for authentic Chinese food, then New China is your best takeout restaurant in the Midlothian and Powhatan area. I won’t say Richmond because I don’t venture too far for takeout. I usually have beef n brocolli, boneless or bone in ribs and shrimp fried rice.

I’ve had some pretty great Americanized Chinese food in my day. New China is alright, I think. I’ll have to try some other dishes.
I sampled several dishes and each one was a pinch underwhelming. Completely edible and satisfying. They’ve got prices you can’t beat. That said, I’ve just had much better incarnations from similar places.
The crab wontons are too sweet. The spring rolls are actually quite good, so I’ll give them that. I ordered the Seafood delight. It’s a dish that has scallops, shrimp, lobster, and crab. I had two lobster chunks in mine, several scallops and shrimp. The crab was the most prevalent thing here, and I’m honestly not sure it was actual crab? Nonetheless, the crab that is put in this dish is disgusting. I had to take it out and throw it away. And yes, I feel bad saying that. It was killing the whole dish. I sampled the beef and broccoli, which could use a thicker sauce. I also had a bit of the general tso’s chicken, which was a little sweeter than I’m used to (also, I’m used to it being doused with sesame seeds and they don’t do that here).
The people that run it are very sweet and again, prices you can’t beat. The portions provide for more than one meal (for this guy, anyway), which is always a plus. My primary complaint is the sweetness. Suggestions: Cut the sugar? Get better crab, or imitation crab if that’s what you’re using. Throw some corn starch in your brown sauce for the beef dishes.
I’ll definitely keep mining this place until I find my gem-​of-​a-​dish. And when I find it, expect an upgraded rating!

I found this new take-​out place and gave it a try with my favorite Chinese dish: roast pork with mixed vegetables. The food was great and prompt. I expect to come back often.
