New Rendezvous Chinese - Northumberland

While staying at The Diamond, we decided to dine at the restaurant next door on a rainy night. We opted for the special meal offered on quieter nights of the week and found it to be very enjoyable. The service was efficient, with two young servers well supervised by a capable lady in charge. The food was excellent and beautifully presented, though not cheap, it was still considered good value for the quality provided.

The takeout order was delicious. The food was cooked and delivered promptly. I will definitely be visiting for a dine-in experience soon. The staff was also very friendly over the phone.

This was my first visit to New Rendezvous and it was hands down the best Chinese food I have ever tasted. The staff was incredibly friendly and I highly recommend this restaurant.

We have been before to this restaurant and the food was lovely, however it was some time ago. We were looking for Sunday lunch and as the restaurant opened at 3.00pm on Sunday we decided to give it a go. Wish we hadn't bothered, deep fried chicken breast, deep dried more like, resting in cold soy sauce. No moisture at all in this chicken. Tiny bowls for the soup although there was enough for two bowls, even so not much. The only thing I enjoyed was the fried rice, I was hungry. The three of us were really disappointed, even the chips weren't nice I'm told.

We have been here before and the food was lovely, not sure what happened, either different chef of using left overs, came for a booking at 3pm on Sunday 18th February, they didn't open the doors till after 5 past , when I rang to say we were standing freezing outside. Only thing nice was the soup, our chicken no'66 was dry and the side of chips we ordered , looked like yesterday's re-cooked, the mango dish was very vinegary, not nice at all, wasn't till after we found out that we should have been offered a Sunday lunch time offer menu, we paid £98 for 3 people , it was not worth this at all ,will not be returning, such a shame
