Absolutely love Kimbo's! Have heard so many great things, so gave it a try for a birthday dinner... it became a birthday banquet. The team were so friendly and made the effort to chat with us about our order to ensure it was just right. The portions are amazing value and such good quality, well cooked food. We will be back!

Another fantastic dinner from chia wing. Takeaway containers rammed to the top, the oyster sauce is amazing as are prawn crackers, can't wait to work through your wonderful menu. Someone here knows what they're doing. Tried other local places, however this is the best as I'm a fussy beggar. David.

We chose thos place as around the area it was the only Chinese place showing vegetarian options but I should have opted for something else as vegetarian or not the food was something I could never have eaten . Non authentic taste , everything was so mixed up in tastes that the originality was lost somewhere in the kitchen , ambience was good but will not recommend for authentic Chinese food

Too expensive! With the prices rising every year, you're now paying dine in rates for a simple takeaway. Ordering a takeaway, even a delivery takeaway, should always be cheaper than sitting in a restaurant and eating, however since covid, New China House no longer offers dine in restaurant services and solely relies on over the phone or walk in takeaways. This of course limits what you can do on a night out as there are now no dine in chinese takeaways in Ventnor, however with new china house being regarded as one of the better Chinese restaurants, they're able to get away with doing a takeaway only service. However! With prices rising massively every single year, and portion sizes staying the same, quality of food staying the same and the menu staying the same, you're now having to pay £9 for a little box of ribs, you'll usually get about 5 little ribs, compare that to the ready made ribs in tesco that for £5 you get a full rack not just a few tiny ribs, and if you look at the crispy shredded chili beef, you're again spending a similar price for a few bits of chili beef. No starters should be priced at nearly £10 a piece, as what is happening more times that not, everyone with myself included are limited to what we're ordering, and sticking with just the starter menu! Ordering a takeaway for 2 people, sticking with just the starters, getting 2 dishes each as they're not very big, you can expect over £60! And if you want to add a main dish or a side dish each, you're looking at nearly £90, for a basic takeaway! The food is good, the service is nice, but for a takeaway only restaurant, these prices are absolutely extortionate, and although i absolutely respect different cultures and their holidays, if the owners of new china house can take a yearly holiday for an entire month between January and February for Chinese New Year, ontop of the other holidays, they're clearly earning a hell of a lot of money from the place which is great! But then why the high prices for food? They're clearly not struggling! The majority of the other chinese takeaways on the island are cheaper with each dish, so although i can expect suppliers to be the main reason to costs rising, it doesn't seem to be the only reason. Ontop of this, New China House doesn't accept any discount cards, this includes but not limited to, TOTUM Student cards, BLUELIGHT emergency services cards, and DEFENCE DISCOUNT armed forces cards, so even those who would be eligible for a discount, cannot get any. I have also started to see that food quality has started to drop over the last 2 years, with food arriving nothing like the photos placed onto their own menu, with incorrect portion sizes or food being overcooked and dry. The butterfly kingprawns which show to be massive balls of battered king prawns, now show up as deep fried battered regular sized prawns, the seaweed is often heavily overcooked, and it's not actually seaweed but rather green cabbage, the chips often coming dry and overcooked, crispy beef often arriving chewy and soggy, so on and so forth. With the prices rising every year you'd expect food quality to rise or at least stay consistent alongside the prices, however they've been lacking with increasingly worse quality from their supplier, and quality in their cooking. Last year, New China House also updated their website to include an ordering online system, however this wasn't done correctly, and now is no longer working, so you're now actually completely unable to see the website, as it won't load with a failed connection, this has been happening since the week the new website was implemented, back towards the end of 2024. In conclusion, is it a good restaurant? No! Is it a good takeaway? Yes! But it's extortionately too expensive for the portion sizes and quality and rising every year with no positive change to the food or its service. I would reccomend this chinese takeaway if you want okay quality food, however only as a once in a while thing and to limit yourself on what you buy.

Ordered for four as a collection order. - £ 60 . Very disappointed. Vegetable curry was watery with no discernable flavour. Roast pork chow mein was very dry - no sauce . Special fried rice was soaked in sweet and sour sauce. A very poor uneatable meal. We attempted to return all the dishes almost full the next day ( Wednesday the 6th March ) for a refund . Arrived at 5.30 pm - their advertised opening time - restaurant was shut. Waited 30mins. Rang the phone number. No reply. Gave up.

We ordered takeaway from the restaurant; waited about 15-20 minutes and food was still piping hot by the time we got home at 10 minutes walking distance. Egg fried rice could use some more salt, crispy squid was slightly too salty but really not bad, beef with garlic and chilli sauce was nice, mixed vegetable foo yung was okay. They gave us a bunch of free crackers which we love. There are of course much better Chinese takeaways in the UK but this isn’t the worse. £22 for those 4 dishes + crackers was unbeatable.

Delicious food, with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Allergen menu available on request ⭐ The staff were attentive, food was super quick and the restaurant was nicely decorated. The food itself was super, large portions with lots of flavour! 🍛😋 Definitely recommend if you are in the area 👍
