MMMM oh man this chinese food is amazing! I order delivery from New Sun pretty regularly now, including last night, and it's worth the wait. I can eat 2 full plates of the food with the wife and still have leftovers for lunch for under 30 bucks!
Huge fan of the veggie chow mein, the spicy tofu (best!) and the sweet and sour prawns. The egg rolls are so yummy and you get four free with your order over $25 bucks, and reeeally nice people bring it to your door in a heat sealed bag. Total deal and delicious msg-laden (or not if you ask) food. Keeps you full too.Listed in: Greatest Hits

I ordered from here tonight and I gotta admit, I was real disappointed. I've had delivery from here once before, at a friends house, and remembered it being tasty. Tonight... not so much. Everything I ordered was bland and incredibly greasy. The tastiest part of the meal was the broccoli in my beef and broccoli. My sesame chicken... I'm not even sure any part of it ever came from a living animal. Based on my order tonight, I'd probably have ranked New Sun with a 1-2 star, but since I know I've had better food from here before, I've bumped it up to a 3.
addendum: The food tasted waaaay better after a night in the fridge. It's still not great, but it's definitely heaps tastier then when it first arrived! -

So it's 5:30 and your hungry...
your partner is about to walk through the door....
your too tired to cook....
what do you do?
WHAT.... DO .......YOU ........DO?...
you run to the kitchen, fling open your drawers (not your underoo's) and grab your New sun Chinese menu. We ordered from there tonight in one such emergency and here is what I recommend.....
1) Breaded almond chicken and don't forget the lemon sauce
2) Mixed vegetables and cashew nuts
3) beef chow mein
3) sweet and sour pork
I find whenever we order from here I am always blown away by the portion sizes, and the best part is there is always leftovers for me to pack in my lunch for the next day.
and one more noteworthy mentions is on their takeout menu they have a coupon that states if you purchase over 25 dollars you get four free egg-roles. -

Chickity China the Chinese Chicken! Hot diggity! I have never actually been in this restaurant, but I have walked by it and ordered many a takeout item from them. The restaurant itself leaves much to be desired, it kind of looks like a cafeteria when I walk by, only smaller. But what do I know, I haven't even been in?
Anyways, we order the wonton soup (yum), the mushroom chow mein (also yum), the country-style bean curd (double yum) and sometimes we'll get some crispy noodle garbage that my boyfriend likes, but really isn't my favourite but it's because I like soft noodles and not crispy ones. In any case, we all love the dishes we pick, and we usually share them, except for crispy noodle-face. Because we have ordered so much, we usually get free egg-rolls too! (If you spend more than $20 you have to ask for them though). So not only does everything taste great, you also get free egg-rolls. It's all totally decently priced, and it shows up to your house so fast and so hot that you burn your tongue on the egg-rolls because you are so excited to eat them and they smell so good! ! You can also ask for your stuff to be MSG free, I have never tried this though because I want to be well preserved.Listed in: Vancouver Vege-me-tarian.

I am going to keep the delivery menu and just hope that we ordered on an off night.
With plenty of good reviews on Yelp I was sure this place was going to be a hit. Sadly it was some of the blandest Chinese food I've ever eaten. The ginger fried chicken (which said spicy on the menu) tasted almost EXACTLY like the sesame chicken we also ordered. And neither were spicy. Even the eggrolls were flavorless.
The food as a whole had a very American feel to me, like I could find more authentic Chinese food at a food court in Coquitlam.
Like I said before though, I haven't given up ALL hope. Their takeout menu sure isn't on the top of my pile, but it isn't in the recycling either. When this last experience isn't so fresh in my mind I will order from here again in hopes that they can redeem themselves in my books.
Side note: I tried a little leftovers cold from the fridge the next day and it seemed to be a little better. Still nothing to write home about, but the flavors had a chance go grow overnight or something... -

WOW!
The first time we ordered we just got their menu on the mail and it was one of those times that you just don't know what to have for dinner, so we called and ordered.... 25 minutes later the food got here, not warm...but deliciously hot! WOWOWWEEEEE! just as if you were eating it right there!!! we simply could not believe the portion and the freshness and warmth of the food....
The second time we just had to set the stopwatch, and again, amazed!
24m36s
and just as hot as the first time.
And then there was the third time.... ping!
a record breaker!
23m 26s
they just get faster every time!
we recommend!
and don't forget... over 25..... 4 eggroll or wonton..... fo' free 'eeeee!!! -

really good stuff! i took someone else's recommendation of the chow mein (A+++) and Almond chicken (breaded and comes without sauce, so if you want it wet, get the sauce for the un-breaded lemon chicken.) the sesame chicken is also very nice if you're looking for something like general tsao's.
also the egg rolls were very cheap. since they dont have a menu online, i hope that helps. also make sure you request NO MSG! its written on the front of their menu, but if you're ordering blind like me, its good to know.
