About New Golden Palace
On Woodhorn Rd in Ashington, New Golden Palace is a Chinese takeaway serving the counter for collection, with delivery also available and an option to collect instead if delivery is busy. Salt and pepper chips and salt and chilli chips are regular orders, alongside chicken chow mein. Customers queue at a waiting area near the front counter, and at times the line has stretched out the door. It opens daily, evenings only, and orders are taken on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation.

Customer Review Summary
The chicken chow mein draws the strongest praise, one reviewer calling it to die for, with the salt and chilli chips and house satay from the meal for one deal following close behind, and reviewers describe generous portions and hot food, with delivery called spot on by one reviewer though another reports a wait of over an hour and a half. Against that, recurring complaints describe dry, overcooked meat: hard chicken, spare ribs impossible to eat, and beef reviewers say was full of fat rather than meat, plus dry rice and salt and pepper chips described as recooked and rock hard. One reviewer also reports food poisoning after a meal. A separate review flags the waiting area as dirty and scruffy, though praising the food itself, and suggests the business give itself a full makeover.

“The delivery took over 1 and a half hours. The food was not edible. The spare ribs were so overcooked they were impossible to eat and the chicken in the main courses was hard and dry. Probably the worst Chinese I’ve had in a long time. Won’t be ordering from here again.”
