    General Tso's Chicken
    Kenny C.

    I'm on the hunt for the best General Tso in CLT and surprisingly this Jin Jin location is in the lead! The chicken was juicy and tender. The breading was light and crispy. The sauce was sweet, spicy, and flavorful. This qualifies as a 4.5 star meal, but I'm round down to 4 stars since I know it's not the best. I just had some General Tso on NYC and it blew me away. This didn't do that, but for CLT it's a great option.

    Bought an order of honey wings and while eating felt string in my mouth which turns out to be long black hair

    Ordered honey wings and there was long black Hair in my food which ended up in my mouth. I have dreadlocks so I know it does not belong to me. Gross and disgusting.

    Read the negative reviews and decided to give it a try anyway. Typical Chinese dive restaurant. Plenty of customers coming in and out. Reasonably priced lunch specials under $8.00 ended up being around $12.00 with drink and egg roll. Food was hot and made to order with a about an 8 min turnaround time. Very good and no dissatisfaction with the food at all. Would recommend if your in area. Note: no ice machine, just can and bottle drinks.

    I love this place! When I lived in Charlotte, I lived 5 minutes from here and would visit once a week. The owners are ALWAYS here and it seems like they never have a day off. But you can tell they are dedicated in what they do. We always get the beef & Broccoli, which is very fresh. The broccoli has a nice crisp to it and the beef is nice and tender. Their pork egg rolls are bomb, I always get a couple extra. It's our weird tradition to stop by on Christmas as they are always open. And since we were in Charlotte we stopped by and loaded up. Very friendly people and you can never go wrong with their food.

    Food is as overpriced and bland. Thrown away after a few bites. Don't waste your money here.

    Best egg rolls ever!!! Food is cheap and portions are huge. My only complaint is the restaurant itself. They need some major renovations.

    This review is for Sun's Kitchen, tucked down near LoSo/Lower South End, and let me tell you --…read morethese dan dan noodles absolutely hit the spot. I was in one of those "I need noodles immediately" moods, and Sun's Kitchen did not disappoint. I called my order in for takeout, and everything was packed perfectly. No leaks, no mess, still hot when I got home, and the portion was surprisingly generous for the price. The dan dan noodles here are rich, savory, a little spicy, and incredibly comforting. If you're not familiar with them, dan dan noodles are a classic Sichuan street food dish from Chengdu traditionally tossed in a spicy, numbing ma-la sauce with pork, scallions, and pickled vegetables. Sun's Kitchen does a really delicious version that's flavorful without feeling too heavy. The noodles have that perfect chewy texture, and every bite has just enough heat to keep you going back for more. If you're someone who's curious about ethnic food but maybe unsure where to start, this is honestly a great entry-level dish. Yes, there's a little spice, but it's approachable and balanced. The dining room itself is modern and beautiful, and now that they serve beer and wine, I definitely need to come back and enjoy a full dine-in experience instead of rushing home with takeout. The only caveat is the parking lot can get a little chaotic since it's shared with neighboring businesses, especially during busy hours. But trust me, it's worth circling for a spot. Charlotte, there's a big wide world of food out there, and places like Sun's Kitchen make exploring it easy and delicious. Get out there and eat your way through it.

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.

    The fried rice and stir-fried okra together are amazing. Food is always good!…read more The ambiance is outdated but the service is exceptional.

It was our first visit and we wanted to try the curry. We ordered the Thai Red Curry and the Thai Green Curry. Both were perfection!

These were both very good and we added shrimp and chicken. I believe they would be just a satisfying with only the vegetables.

They genuinely did not taste like chicken at all, and I couldn't even finish them. I strongly recommend staying away from that item. I also tried to order a bubble tea without ice and was told I'd be charged an extra $2 because they would need to "add more juice." I didn't ask for extra juice, just no ice!!! And charging extra for that feels unreasonable and borderline price gouging. Ridiculous!!!! Between the poor food quality and the frustrating service, the overall experience wasn't great, and I won't be returning.
