I have been going here since I was in Highschool, and try to come back whenever Im in town. It is the gold standard for Chinese food for me, and Ive tried dozens of chinese restaraunts all over the place. My favorite dishes here are the General Tsao's, extra spicy, and the wantan soup.

The chow mein noodles were not even cooked and their steamed dumplings were pretty hard to chew on and the restaurant was absolutely empty. First time i had to spit it back out. I had the sichuan beef and asked for very spicy but wasnt spicy at all. I highly do not recommend this place. Ps You dont even want to go in the restrooms.

I was looking for a Chinese restaurant close by, so I checked Yelp...I have driven by this place hundreds of times! Do not judge a book by its cover! I ordered General Tso Chicken with fried rice...it was great!

Was driving down 82 with pooch and spied this out of the corner of my eye. I think the fact that it said "restaurant AND lounge" intrigued me. I've never really partied in a Chinese lounge. The nondescript face of the building has echoes of the VTR. You're not sure if there really even is a restaurant inside. This place...man...it was like a kind of pulp magazine fever dream. While the dining room was pretty standard fare, the lounge is probably one of the weirdest places I've ever been. Smaller than my basement bar(about three stools and a couple booths), it is surrounded on three sides by said dining room. Dude had Chinese tv on and was stocking the bar with ice. This was at 11 am. If this place was in Tremont or Detroit Shoreway, it would be one of the kitschy treasures of our ever more ironic scene. Think Tina's niteclub meets a vintage bar set for sale at Suite Lorain. Yet, here it sits, nestled away in sleepy North Royalton. I can only imagine how freaky this place gets at night. Magnificent. Anyhow, had to rustle up some lunch vittles for me and the dog. Ordered spring rolls, ten steamed dumplings and a lunch portion of chicken subgum. Fourteen bucks total. The subgum had to be a dinner portion. Huge. The dumplings were fantastic. Tasted very fresh(we ate a few on the road). A very awesome surprise to find in my travels around the burbs.

Really love there General Tsos chicken. We get it extra spicy and it's so good. The fried rice is good as well. I don't like the egg rolls, but I've never had an egg roll I truly like. I will say that the two times I ordered appetizers they were terrible. The crab ragoons had a weird texture and didn't taste like much. The shrimp toast was one of the worst things I've ever eaten. I paid like $7 and I couldn't finish a whole piece. The texture and taste and everything was so bad. I don't understand how a place the that makes such good dinners can make appetizers so bad. For dinner this place is wonderful, but don't order any thing else.

Pretty good food from a family operated joint. I really liked the shrimp fried rice until I found out that none of the shrimp had been deveined :(

I ordered the veggie egg rolls, general tso's chicken, and crab rangoon. The super chunks of general tso chicken were too large and bad pieces of meat. There was no crab in the rangoon, and had the texture of toothpaste, and the egg rolls were dripping in oil. I have lived in North Royalton for 10 years and I never went to this place. The time I did go re-confirmed my notion that this is a typical greasy spoon that has horrible Chinese food. Never again. After eating at Chinese restaurants in San Francisco and New York, they definitely need to re-evaluate their cooking ingredients and provide better quality food.

I loved this place. Want legit food in a very casual place at a low price, go here. No ambiance but good service and nice people. I was shocked at how good this place was. Old staff that is friendly and move quicker than you would think.

It has come to my attention that some of the information in my initial NEW Gum Do review may have been incorrect. First of all the shrimp do not come from Bangladesh as I had stated in my first review. The shrimp "...they come from the store! The store! The store!" which may or may not be superior than that which I had stated. The shrimp stew may be excellent and in my haste to be both informative and erudite I may have jumped to the conclusion that shrimp from the Indian Ocean are not fresh in North Royalton for geographic reasons, freshness expectations and the intractable nature of the time/travel relationship. Also, in the strictest sense of the word, I did not in fact 'fornicate' prior to consuming stew from NEW Gum Do and the person involved was not in actuality a cast member from Glee. As it relates to this matter, my only explanation is that people employed at Home Days two dollar games of chance are trained to be deceitful and are particularly effective in the art of seduction. That the woman in question was a talented singer and had surprisingly life-like dentures only added to the ruse, my inevitble deception and now my personal shame and humiliation. It only seemed fitting that in my hour of discovery I would turn to my five star friends at NEW Gum Do to seek solace and comfort in a tinfoil tray of stew and carrots carved into fun shapes. Only in places like NEW Gum Do can a person, fallen as I may be, be reborn. New Fortune: If reading this fortune you are, cry you must. Sigh.

All I have to say is they have a good selection of vegetarian dishes - and the imitation beef & broccoli dish is excellent! I went in for take-out. Service was fast and so very polite and friendly. Everything a chinese place should be :)

It was crap 30 years ago and it's still crap today. You have to wonder how they're still in business.

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
