New China City - Sefton

Constantly told my mother in law not to visit this restaurant but she just wouldn’t listen. Now spent 2 weeks in hospital with food poisoning after eating prawns here on bank holiday Monday in May. The place is filthy and you only have to look at the shiny trousers and waistcoat worn by the person in charge to understand have bad it is. Not worth a 1 star food hygiene rating, can’t understand why it’s allowed to trade, it’s disgusting. Needs reporting to environmental health.

Our visit to the restaurant was excellent. We were in Southport for the afternoon and decided to stop by this restaurant, where we had dined before a few years ago. The food was delicious and flavorful, and the staff was outstanding.

Went for early bird meal, food really bland, nothing seemed clean, waiters clothes very dirty, leaning across table to pass food over, not going around, food nearly ended up on elderly friends lap!! Would not be going back, or recommend to anyone.

Had a takeaway from here, staff were very nice and attentive. We got home and the food was very bland, no flavour. All the dishes had the same bland taste. Black bean sauce bland Vermicelli no spice or flavour. Duck spring rolls poor and the sauce had lumps of sugar in it. Sorry but won't be returning there

We ordered a banquet for 2 sas. take away. My husband collected it and brought it home. On opening the bags we were very disappointed. The ribs were so dry that we could not eat them. The chicken had been deep fried to the extent that they could not be eaten either. The crispy duck again was over cooked and dry. The mains were something else. The beef dish the portion was so small that it wasn't even half a portion. The rice was plentiful and so we're the prawn crackers. Finally the toffee apples were the size of lemons and so thick in batter and stuck together in the container. We paid £42 for a meal that we could.only half eat. Very disappointed. We have had banquets from there before and they were lovely. I think the chef was having an off day.
