    Beyond disgusting

    I ordered two dinners. One the rice was beyond brown and dry. I also got sweet and sour chicken. I don't use the sauce so I had asked for no sauce and extra hot mustard. I got one packet of mustard. One soy sauce for two dinners. The beef in my hunan beef was so disgusting and chewy. I couldn't eat it. Two hours later I was super sick from eating the chicken. You need to watch what u are serving people.

    Food tasted good. The buffet was constantly being refreshed and cleaned. Signs request that a new plate is used every time you go up to get more. As soon as you sit back down, a waiter is clearing old plates. My son ate, my parents enjoyed. Salad bar to start, desert bar and soft serve ice cream to end.

    Cheap and convenient food ! Place is clean upon entry ! Never ate at the buffet but they seem to have people all the time in there . Food is always hot and fresh and I've never been dissatisfied neither my boyfriend. He ordered this plate and they definitely pile up the food so you will get your monies worth !!

    Best if it's kind. Fair priced. Dishes are always fresh and hot. The wait staff is always on the ball. Priced very reasonably. Bravo

    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.

    Yay! This is my favorite Chinese food restaurant in the area. Let's be honest, there are dozens of…read moreplaces to get Chinese anywhere you look. However, not all are created equal. The quality of the food is great, the flavors are superior and their customer service is excellent. One time I was going to pick-up some food and at the time they didn't have 'curbside'. I had my kids in the car with me and they just happened to fall asleep. If I went in to get the food, I would have to wake them up and I would have some cranky children for the rest of the day. I called the store, and she came out to my car to get my payment, asked and brought anything else we needed and even whispered to help keep the kiddos snoozing. All this, while it was raining outside. It's these little things that make me want to come back and support someone who has such a great heart and passion for what they do. Highly recommended! tell your friends! :)

    Woof. The food here is not only terrible but seems unfit for consumption. And it takes a lot for me…read moreto say that because I will eat (*try*) just about anything...but not this. My husband and I ordered take out. The first sign something was off, was the box our order came in: a flour tortilla wrap box. WTF?? Everything we ordered tasted like fake food. Like it came out of a machine or factory or somewhere untouched by humans. When we threw the food out, it left a weird slimy-looking dark residue on the inside of all the styrofoam boxes that would not rinse off. I've never seen anything like this. Needless to say, we were very turned off by the whole experience and I can say with certainty that we will not be back. Can't say I would recommend :(

    Service 4.5 Ambiance 3.5 nice and roomy. Lots of space…read more Seemed clean. Food 2.8 many food items on the bar, chicken was dry in the hibachi, but chicken wings were good. There was teriyaki and sesame chicken but no generals or orange chicken. Several vegetable options. Dessert bar mostly instant pudding and such. There is a nice soft serve machine. Having a hibachi bar included is nice but the meats were mediocre. Just getting noodles and broccoli were good, though. At $20/person I'm not sure it's a value for the money. 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
