    Chicken Wings and Fried Rice
    Laquisha N.

    Nice restaurant with plenty of seating. Food was hot and fresh. I had the sweet and sour soup with Shrimp fried rice and chicken wings.

    Crab Rangoon

    We decided to order take out from this restaurant. We wanted something quick and easy. It was very easy to order. We ordered General Tso Chicken with white rice with Crab Rangoons. The General Tso Chicken had good flavor and there was lots of chicken. I believe it comes with a pint a white rice. The low star review was solely for the Crab Rangoons. They were literally empty. There was no filling inside any of them and it was a huge waste of money. I wouldn't order them again sadly.

    Shrimp fried rice with chicken wings, always good and excellent service

    Fast and friendly service, fried rice and chicken wings are really good. My go to Chinese when I'm in Pineville.

    Crab Ragoons. Not my favorite but there ok.

    Always friendly and quick! I lived in South Charlotte almost 20 years and they are definitely my go-to take out. Food is great and fresh. They also sell shrimp sauce which is a plus!

    We were so glad that this place was open for take out despite COVID-19! They have a wide variety of options at great affordable prices. We had Shrimp with Lobster Sauce dinner combo ($8.75) and General Tso's Chicken dinner combo ($8.25). The dinner combos all come with pork fried rice and an egg roll. The egg roll was large but a bit soggy and lacking in flavor. They were very generous with their portion sizes. General Tso's Chicken was not spicy at all, which I was actually glad for. Their Steamed Dumplings (8 pieces for $4.95) were delicious. You can request that the dumplings are either fried or steamed. We weren't sure when our food was ready for pick up because our name was never taken and therefore never called out, nor were we given a number to be called when our food was ready. They just left the food in a bag on the counter and walked away, as if we were somehow supposed to know it was ours. Other than that, we were pleased with our experience.

    This is what came out of the plastic bag my order was in!

    The paper bag with my order was in a plastic bag, so I did not notice the greasy mess until I took it out of the bag. The food was otherwise just okay.

    Shrimp in garlic sauce lunch special.

    Delicious! Crisp veggies, great sauce. It was quick and we were surprised because we just happened upon them on a trip to run errands. We tried the vegetable lo mein and the shrimp in garlic sauce lunch special. No complaints other than - make sure u get napkins, soy sauce, etc.

    Hot & Sour Soup a little bland

It is busy enough that plenty of other people had also called in for takeout. The price was higher than I thought it would be by a significant margin; I thought something was off but then rechecking their menu I saw it was indeed $20 for a vegetable entree. On the upside, they did offer brown rice at no extra charge. Still, I'll get three meals out of it and as someone who eats a lot of takeout, this was not a great value. In terms of quality, I was thrilled to find that they offered a stir-fried okra dish. This is a ubiquitous Indian dish, and of course okra is common throughout the tropics globally, but I'd never seen this offered at a Chinese restaurant before. And the rapid cooking technique typical of the cuisine produced a delightfully crisp vegetable, which went great with a black bean sauce and some very hot dried chilis. On the other hand, their interpretation of ma po tofu had some fermented broad beans but minimal vegetables (sometimes you get mushrooms or peas or at least some leeks or something) and no numbing sensation. They had a bean curd roll dish that I enjoyed, and some quality dumplings. Overall, not huge portions and a mix of okay to great quality.

I ordered the sesame chicken dinner, wonton soup and an egg roll. The egg roll was soooooo small...super lint and little. I co my s from a place where one egg roll can be shared by two people. Thick and super stuffed. Forget that. It doesn't exist here. The mini egg roll was dry and you couldn't even tell what was in it. The wonton soup broth had a great flavor but the wontons were not fresh. They were gummy in a creepy kinda way. Frozen with freezer burn was my best guess. The sesame chicken was super super super OVERFRIED. Dry as a bone inside. This had clearly been pre fried and then fried again and dipped in a sticky sauce with weird texture. Kind of tasted like sesame chicken but the texture of the sauce and the dry chicken were disgusting. I spit it out. This place is a nicer version of Panda Express. If you like Panda Express .....bless your hearts than you might love this place. Those of us who have been exposed to amazing Chinese food at super cheap prices are not loving the Chinese food offerrings here in the Carolina's. Yuck

The person who greeted, seated, and waited on me was nothing short of rude and hostile towards other employees, diners, and me. I had gone in for the buffet, but it was not available, so I needed a minute to look over the menu that was thrust in my face. Instead, I was asked within 15 seconds what I wanted. I asked for more time. That was not pleasing to this person. A couple of minutes later, I ordered my main course while she talked over me, and I also ordered a soup while she continued to talk over me. The soup never came. As I was getting ready to pay my bill, she actually took half of the fortune cookie from my hand as she cleared the dishes from the table. I was so stunned by that action I couldn't say anything. I have seen this very same person behave in similar ways to others in the past. Today was my first direct dose of her unhospitable behavior. I am not saying I will never return, but when I do, I will certainly ask not to have this person be associated with my service. I do hope that the ownership of the restaurant will examine her role and put her in a position that does not have direct customer contact. She will cost the establishment customers.
