Combination plate is a lot of food and I made a couple meals out of it. I got sweet and sour chicken with pork fried rice. I really like their rice which had little chunks of pork and peas and carrots. The chicken was good but I was expecting chunks of pineapple and carrots which most places add. Chicken had good flavor and they give you lots of sauce for dipping. Egg roll was large and full of flavor. For the price it's a really good deal and yummy. We also got beef and broccoli. Neat was tender and broccoli has some crunch to it.

We did this as takeout…read more On the positive: fast, economical and large quantities. Staff is quick and efficient. On the negative side, taste is so-so. We hear routinely that it's hard to get good Chinese food in this part of the country. So far that appears to be true. My wife had the cashew chicken combination plate. The egg roll was good. The pork flavored rice was also good. Vegetables and meat were a bit bland. We counted 3 cashews, so that was a bit disappointing. I had the kung po gee din. Everything was there in terms of vegetables and meat. But hot/spicey it was not. I do some Asian cooking and there are 2 things that make a difference: freshness and sauce. Vegetables in neither dish were terribly fresh. The sauces lacked the strong flavor profile that should be there. In particular there seemed to be no vinegar or other acid flavors. Not strongly soy sauce flavored, which is sometimes done to fool the palate into thinking it's more umami than it is. Just a bit generic in taste. They're obviously trying hard, but they don't quite have it.

I was definitely on the fence regarding eating at Old Li's Restaurant... Why? Preconceived ideas…read morebased on nothing basically. How wrong was I?! Old Li's is an outstanding authentic Asian restaurant. I loved it. No reservations required and plenty of tables. It's a very clean well ordered establishment. Also plenty of free parking right outside. The staff could not have been any better, prompt, attentive & very knowledgeable about the menu. The round table we sat had had a "lazy Susan" to facilitate the sharing of dishes. We ordered based on recommendations, personal taste & heat levels. The dishes were absolutely delicious. So good. I think the Peking Duck was the star of the show. If you are seeking Asian authenticity & phenomenal family service.. Old Li's in N. Charleston near Tanger outlet is your place to go. Of note the prices cannot be beat. A really nice change!!

Beautiful Chinese-themed Restaurant, nice relaxing atmosphere…read more Stopped in for lunch on Friday afternoon with a coworker; we were the only twoin the place for the 30 minutes we were there. Service was prompt and friendly. Ordered the stir fried beef and green pepper lunch, includes a soft drink. Food arrived quickly and had good flavor but lacking something to put it in the great cateogry. Love the boiled egg that was included. Overall a good visit, I'll return to check out something else on the menu.

I tried Pagoda on the recommendation of a friend who grew up going to Pagoda in the 80s and 90s…read more The online menu looked good, and I was happy to see Cantonese boneless chicken on it, which is a dish I rarely see these days. I called in a takeout order on a Friday evening and the food was ready quickly and the staff was friendly. There is no dine in service, which was not a problem. The food was... not good. The egg drop soup was a good color, nice and dark yellow, but quite runny and just pretty bland. The pork egg foo young was fine, had lots of pork in it, but again, was bland. The sauce that usually comes with egg foo young should be a darker, glossy brown, but the sauce that came with this was a thick, colorless, flavorless breakfast looking gravy that was awful. The Cantonese boneless chicken was terrible as well, and for some reason was drowning in the bland, colorless gravy as well. The Pagoda fried rice hardly had any meat in it, and I understood this to be their house fried rice, which should have had several types of meat included. Even the egg rolls were bland. I definitely will not be returning, and the search for a new regular Chinese takeout spot continues...

I've been indulging in a lot of soup lately since I haven't been feeling well, and that brings me…read moreto my latest experience with Pagoda in Summerville. I consider myself a bit of a broth snob--there's something special about the time it takes to create a good chicken stock. I decided to order a small wonton soup from their website, where it was listed at $2.75. What a deal, right? However, when my husband picked up the order, we were charged $3.90. Apparently, there's been a price change per their printed menu, which wasn't reflected with their online website--a small annoyance, but worth noting. If you're in search of a good soup broth, definitely another good restaurant to try. Now, onto the soup. The broth was actually quite good--not just plain yellow chicken broth but something with a bit more flavor. I'd possibly order it again. My main gripe is that a small soup came with only two wontons. Is this normal? Maybe it is, but I've been to other places in the Charleston-Summerville area that serve more wontons even in their small soups. While I might go back, I'd recommend asking ahead about the number of wontons if that's a dealbreaker for you. You may want to upgrade to a large if two wontons won't cut it. Overall, I'd say Pagoda is worth a shot, but manage your expectations for portion sizes.

We ordered orange chicken and kung pao shrimp but received chicken. We chose to eat it anyway. The orange chicken was the highlight!

The pork wontons were okay. The cream cheese ones may have been better. Overall it's a good spot and we will return again despite the misunderstanding with the shrimp.

I did walk away full though!

China Town Buffet - Summerville, SC is exactly what you expect...a solid, no-frills buffet…read more If you're going in looking for something fancy or mind-blowing, this isn't that--but if you just want a quick, filling meal with variety, it gets the job done. The selection had all the classics: fried rice, lo mein, shrimp, and your typical buffet favorites. The shrimp fried rice was decent and flavorful enough, and the lo mein with shrimp and veggies was fresh and hot when we went There were also a few extras like fried items and sides that round out the plate, making it easy to load up and try a little bit of everything. Portion-wise, you definitely won't leave hungry. Service was pretty standard for a buffet--nothing over the top, but everything moved along smoothly. The space is casual and laid-back, perfect for a quick lunch or low-key dinner. Overall, it's not spectacular, but it's reliable. If you're in Summerville and just want a simple buffet-style meal without breaking the bank, this spot works

Wow.

We believe our search is over, and we declare Great Wall our new go-to spot. We walked up to the counter and the young man patiently took our order. We then sat down and noted most of the orders ready for take out were for rice and fried chicken. I became a little anxious, as our order seemed to drag on, and I wondered silently if we were set for another disappointment. We've been hoping to find a new restaurant before Christmas Day, as we've planned this as our yuletide meal this year, and we've been searching since Fortune Garden unexpectedly closed on New Years Day this year. Our order was finally called, we were granted our various sauces, we retrieved everything and headed home. We began unpacking everything from the brown paper bag and I noticed a couple of things immediately: our order was correct, the food was hot...but then, something else caught my eye. The egg foo young gravy. Now, if you're a connoisseur of the egg foo young, you've undoubtedly run across sub-par gravy: thick, lumpy, gray and not terribly inviting. This was not that gravy. The concoction was a dark brown, silky and smooth. The taste of egg foo young and gravy was heavenly. We then tried the house special fried rice and the egg rolls. Definitely closest to our beloved Fortune Garden. You should make Great Wall your new forever Chinese takeout restaurants. Maybe we'll see you there on Christmas!
