About The New Oriental Restaurant
The New Oriental Restaurant is a Chinese takeaway in Dumfries, at 54 Friars Vennel. The kitchen cooks Chinese dishes, including Salt & Pepper Chicken and Peking chicken or beef, all prepared to take away. The business has run as a takeaway only since covid, so it has no table service. Anyone planning a visit should know that the restaurant no longer seats diners, even though it still carries the name.

Customer Review Summary
The main caveat is that the restaurant now operates as takeaway and delivery only. A few reviewers note it has been this way since covid, and one low review complains that there is no table service. One earlier reviewer mentions a buffet that was great value for kids, which suggests dine-in once existed. A family function there is recalled as handled accommodatingly, and delivery to the other side of town is described as arriving within half an hour.
