1/11/2025 Hello, it’s the picky eater again, I just wanted to share a few things in reference to one of my favorite takeout places in Connecticut. I treat myself to wonton soup with five extra wontons and a small house fried rice about once a week. So, after traveling, shopping and visiting family on Sunday, my husband and I decided we didn’t have the energy to cook dinner. Our first choice was Mona Lisa, in Waterbury( we are going to try the Family takeout menu for the first time ) but they were closed for vacation. So we opted to go to New Moon Chinese Resturant . As I have mentioned in some of my previous restaurant reviews, when I come across something that I enjoy , and the restaurant is consistent in how they make the food, and the food has plenty of flavors and choices, I usually frequent the establishment multiple times. My husband and I ordered takeout . This is what we ordered: one large wonton soup with five extra wontons, one large house fried shrimp and chicken rice , one general T’so chicken meal, fried chicken wings, and shrimp egg fu young. $49.00 plus tip. I enjoyed my regular picks Wonton soup( I add a lot of spinach, a boiled egg and rice to my soup ) . This was perfect for me. Everyone also has to keep in mind that I am a very finicky eater. But, I do try to go outside the box every now and again to try something different. I ordered the general T’so chicken. I do have to say it looked delicious, but it didn’t make the cut for me. I also don’t like foods that I have to chew for days. The general T’so was too salty for me and the meat was very stringy. I have to give that one a thumbs down. The fried chicken wings were good on a scale of 1 to 10 I would give them an 8. I cannot personally comment on any of the food that my husband ate, but, he did say it was delicious and he had it the next day for lunch. general T’so chicken did not do well with reheating, it was extremely hard and chewy the next day. The house fried rice and the wonton soup all day long.
I also will continue to get my regular large wonton soup with five extra wontons and a small house fried shrimp and chicken rice. (I usually get three meals out of this one order.)

Worker tried to tell me chow mein does not have noodles. I ordered shrimp chow mein and they gave me just veggies absolutely disgusting. Worker got aggressive with me over the phone. Very rude! Pictures showed what I received

Rib meat was hard and dry. Shrimp toast totally burnt, and woman on the counter screaming at staff with several customers in the store. The low main was good at least

Ordered a half fried chicken and its had no meat and quite honestly it looked disgusting. Very disappointed with what they served me, the picture does not do it justice because it was way worse.

Sauce was bland. I got extra sauce. The ribs were tender and juicy, just wish sauce was a-little better. Pork fried rice was tasty . Egg roll, portion and price was also good!!

I ordered the general tso chicken extra spicy and extra sauce and for the first time it was perfectly made. The meat was crispy and sauced just right and it was steamy hot. Job well done to the chef
