Do not order from this place. We got takeaway last night and I've been vomiting all night from the food eaten here. It also has a 1 hygiene rating which I wish we checked before ordering. Not only did I get food poisoning, the food was bland and horrible. The chowmein tasted like it had been smoked. Very odd. We will not be ordering from here ever again. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤢🤮🤢🤢

Do not order food from here unless you like your chinese bland, tasteless and watery. Half of ours ended up in the bin. Four of us all had different dishes yet all agreed that this was the worst chinese meal we had ever had. You have been warned.

Ordered a takeaway at 6pm, got a call from driver at 7.30 saying they had broken down and someone was coming to take the order to us, it never arrived. Phoned the restaurant they said it was being re cooked, waited some more, phoned again and they said it went to wrong address. We cancelled order after 2 hours, not offered any compensation or anything. 9pm and now getting a kebab.

So Greasy! My delivery arrived in time with a very polite driver. However the chow mien was burnt and smelt of smoke, the curry sauce was all lumpy and congealed. I bit into a spring roll and loads of oil spurted out. I usually go to China Town across the road from this store, but I ordered because New City delivered. From now on I’ll be ordering from China Town only, even if I have to collect! Very Disappointing. Ordered on - Monday 17th May at about 8pm.

Really disappointing experience from somewhere well recommended. Bug in the food, late delivery, not hot. Call in an order at 6:10 last night, were told it would be 90 mins, lady was very friendly on the phone. Took a little over 2 hours to be delivered (about 8:15). Food wasn't that hot, presumably as it had been out for delivery for a while, but wouldn't call it cold. Other half found a small fly/bug in her duck (photo was taken on the side, but bug was seen in the tub), which she wasn't entirely sure was duck in plum sauce. My food was pretty good, although also could have been hotter. Just a disappointing experience overall, perhaps we caught them on a bad night!

We previous used this Chinese prior to Covid and for the first time in a while ordered for collection again tonight. I don't know what has changed but a previous 4/5 star takeaway now gets 1 star. The food was so bland. Over cooked dry ribs, tasteless main dishes and pancake rolls dripping with oil. The only good thing from a £30+ order were the 8 sweet & sour prawn balls. Very disappointing.

Having moved here from New York 3 years ago now, I am always on the lookout for a good Chinese Takeaway. Being Chinese myself, nothing will ever beat my mom's home cooking but New City is a good substitute. They are family run and often you will see a little girl sitting at a table doing her homework. The food is well flavored and not overly saucy. I've had takeaway there a few times and have not been disappointed unlike from the place across the street. Their "hot" food actually does have a delightful kick to it. I end up adding hot sauce but only because I could drink from the hot sauce bottle and still say it's not hot enough. Great food and well balanced in terms of seasoning and flavor. My go to place right in the heart of Ringwood!

Used to live in Ringwood and this was the go to place for Chinese food! Found myself passing and thought I would treat myself... What a mistake! I had the sweet and sour vegetables and a portion of chips. Wow this place has gone down hill! The chips were cheap crinkle cut chips from the supermarket and the s&s sauce was watery and lacked any sort of flavour. One of many reasons that this town is going in the wrong direction. What a dissapointment. Go elsewhere!

Offering the usual menu options, my other half ordered from this place by mistake recently and so we tried what we ordered to compare it to Chinatown across the road. The meat was of average quality for a takeaway and the sauces ok with plenty of veg which was good, but we prefer the cooking style of Chinatown. In fairness to this outlet, most people get used to a certain style of cooking and this did taste quite nice in places so it's worth a try for sure.
