About New Oriental
New Oriental is a Chinese takeaway in Nuneaton, at 20 Coleshill Rd. The menu pairs Chinese mains with chips, and an order can combine chicken and green pepper in black bean sauce with a portion of chips. Noodles are covered by chow mein, including a house special chow mein. Curry has its own place on the menu, with curry sauce available and a special curry served with chips for anyone who wants a curry rather than a Chinese main.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return to the flavour and heat of the food, with the chicken and prawn balls singled out for a batter that is "spot on", and the black bean chicken with golden, crispy chips described as plentiful and prompt. Close behind are portion sizes, praised as great and plentiful, and delivery that arrives hot and on time. Several call it the best Chinese takeaway in Nuneaton, and one newcomer says all four orders have been delicious. A set meal for two with house special chow mein and ribs in Cantonese sauce also gets praise. The complaints are about consistency. One regular says the last few orders were bland, with watery curry sauce and hardly any meat in the chow mein, and wonders whether there is a new chef. Another found the special curry beef tasteless, the chips dry and the spring rolls greasy, with only the salt and pepper chicken worth praising after a long phone-quoted wait. Even so, one reviewer calls the food extremely well priced from an extensive menu.

“We've recently moved to the area and used New Oriental four times now. The food is absolutely delicious and always ready on time. It's a very old school takeaway and every dish we've had so far has been of the highest quality. Highly recommended.”
