    Maybe I'm just used to up north food but the quality really wasn't up to par. I ordered the sesame chicken and the fried wings. The sesame chicken was mostly filler and slimy. I think they have too much on the menu and can't give each dish its proper attention / reuse chicken idk. This is my 2nd time trying.

    Dirty walls and hand prints all over the fish tank
    Chris N Stephanie T.

    I will start with the positives, the server was very positive and attentive, the food came out fast from the kitchen, and the prices were fair. Now the negative, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was dirty. Tables full of dirty dishes that have sat there for who knows how long, there were dead roaches on the floor (did not notice until after we ate )[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the shrimp in the shrimp rolls was over cooked and tasted like rubber, the egg roll tasted as though it had gone bad (bitter and stale), the egg drop soup was thick and flavorless, the miso soup tasted like ocean water (way too salty), the cream cheese and crab wontons had no crab meat, and the rice was slimy. The yellow curry was very flavorful but the carrots were not cooked well and there was too much onion and not enough "broth." [[HIGHLIGHT]]The walls were dirty, there were hand prints all over the fish tank, there was dust on everything including the lighting track just over our heads[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I really wanted to like this place. I will not be back.

    Bubble Tea Bar

    I went outside to clean the snow off of my car and had the sudden craving for some egg drop soup. I hadn't been to Mulan in a long time and thought, that would be a good place to go so now I'm on a mission. I arrived to a somewhat empty restaurant but due to the weather I was happy that they were open. I was warmly greeted and seated by friendly staff members and they made sure I was well taken care of. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is nicely decorated and they have a Bubble Tea Bar, with a huge variety of Bubble teas, Smoothies and other drinks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the Egg Drop Soup and one of the House Recommendations The Honey Chicken. My soup was good and steaming hot, to be fair it wasn't the best Egg Drop Soup I ever had but it was good. The Honey Chicken was cooked perfectly but a little too sweet with the sauce and pineapple but tasty, I did notice it didn't have any carrots as described on the menu . Next time I'll try the Mulan Shrimp maybe it won't be as sweet. Overall I had a great dining experience and will return to try something different.

    Excellent food the service was amazing .. [[HIGHLIGHT]]have a cute little patio and the inside is nicely done[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]... the Chinese fried rice with pineapple was amazing

    Fried combination rice and egg drop soup.
    Michel I.

    Placed a to go order. Very polite and the food is amazing. We love the fried rice and egg drop soup.

    Yellow "Thai" Curry

    I ordered the Thai tea boba, it wasn't very flavorful and in fact is quite watery, so I changed it to the brown sugar boba which was better but still not my favorite. I ordered the yellow Thai curry to eat. It's ok but I would not order it again, there is a server lack of coconut milk, which is typically key in these curries. And for some reason the potatoes in the curry taste sweet?? Not really sure what that is about. It was also served on a plate which makes it difficult to eat and would have been better served in a bowl. Overall I think I won't be back, and in fact wish I hadn't come in the first place.

    Veggie fried rice
    Monica W.

    I really hate to dislike a restuarant but there is nothing I hate worse than bad food. I visited on a Monday evening around 6:00pm and the place was empty, maybe two other patrons. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was nice and service was good but the food was just bland at best.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered jalapeno and basil wings and it was fried wings with jalapeno and basil leaves on top with a side of onions which I didn't understand. No flavor at all and wings were not done. We ordered veggie fried rice with spicy seasoning and the few hunks of veggies were lightly steamed but the taste was overall good. We ordered rolls and the ingredients were not fresh and bland. We were also disappointed in the quantity for the price. 5 pieces for $15 is way too much. I absolutely would not recommend this place however if perhaps I should order something different, please let me no otherwise Mulan is overrated in my opinion.

    Way, stop by from Texas to Chicago, and we definitely love this Chinese restaurant! Our service are great, and the chef is the best. Food is great! You have to try the Chinese menu!

    6 Crabmeat and Cream Cheese Wonton, Shrimp Fried Rice Alaskan roll and Crunchy Shrimp roll
    Welexi H.

    Mulan has become one of my favorite spots to dine at when it comes to sushi. Out of their 3 locations, the East Memphis restaurant has been my go-to. Mulan offers reservations and walk-ins. During this visit, my guest and I did a walk-in and it took less than 2 min to be seated. The waitress knows me now because of my frequent visits and she is always pleasant when I see her. For starters, I ordered the crabmeat and cream cheese wontons. They always come out steaming hot. My sushi choice was the Alaskan roll filled with crab, cream cheese, and smoked salmon on top. I love a good roll with salmon. The shrimp fried rice was cooked to perfection and adding the soy sauce gave it the extra flavor it needed. The waitress constantly checked on us and asked if we needed anything. Mulan ambiance is quiet, I love the fact that you can't hear anyone else's conversation. It's never too loud. The parking lot is spacious so you don't have to worry about that. If you are looking for family time, catching up with friends, or alone time, Mulan is the place to be.

    Beef Lo Mein
    Sarah P.

    We grab lunch to go for work here every now and again. The food is always ready on time! I haven't had anything bad here. The wonton soup is great. The beef lo mein is great! The staff is nice. You can easily order online. I've never sat down in the restaurant so I can't comment to that. I recommend checking out Mulan for a good lunch!

    Mango dirty milk with coconut pudding (left) and Mango smoothie with cream (right)

    Food is always good and portions are sized well. DoorDash driver didn't get all my order, told at drop off and still drove away. Called the restaurant and within 15 mins had the rest. VERY pleased with them!!!

    My absolute favorite place to get boba I literally go every other day , and get there crème brûlée boba ! They never disappoint, will continue to keep going

    How is the house fried rice and schezuan shrimp?

    Objectively, the dishes in MULAN are all top-notch though somewhat a bit pricey. But the quality of their food-servers and the host/hostess DEPENDS if it's during a busy rush hour or not. I came one day when it was early afternoon and the service… 

    This looks great! Going to eat there today but I am trying to do low carb.. do you know if the lettuce wraps would be a good choice? Wasn't sure if they had rice in them..

    There is no rice in the lettuce wraps dish, an excellent choice, both healthy and delicious.

    Do they do gluten free Chinese options?

    Yes, most of our dishes can be prepared gluten free.

    Haven't been here yet. I do plan to try it. I'm hearing the service was bad. Anyone else heard anything?

    That is accurate. The service is bad and the food is mediocre. If you get a chance, try the one in mid-town instead.

The poke bowls hit the mark with fresh ingredients and plenty of customization options, which makes it a solid choice if you're building something that fits your taste -- whether you like classic sushi-style bowls or fun fusion combinations. The vibe inside is bright and inviting, and they also serve bubble tea and rolled ice cream, so it's a versatile spot if you're craving something sweet after your meal. Some bowls are more sauce-forward than others, but the variety and speedy service make it a good casual lunch or dinner stop. Fresh, customizable bowls Bubble tea & dessert options Friendly, quick service Would definitely recommend trying their bowls and grabbing a drink or sweet on the side!
