I don't even live in Charlotte anymore, but had to make sure I stopped by when I visited last weekend. The crab rangoon is a must. Nobody compares! This place will always be my favorite. I also ordered a large shrimp lo mein, which my family and I loved! If anyone also likes chicken wings, I've been told the chicken wings here are delicious.
Really impressed with this restaurant. We’ve stopped for Crab Rangoon's over the years because they’re THE best! We decided to try a few plates last night despite living far from the location. The lady up front was so sweet. The food was still hot and fresh after getting home. It tasted like quality meat, unlike most other Chinese restaurants. Not so greasy. Our family all agreed that it’s the best we’ve had. The orange chicken was our favorite. One plate can easily serve 3 people. We already have plans to go back to try more and dine in.
So after passing this place nearly every day for years, I decided to try it out. I ordered shrimp fried rice, I got shrimps and rice with soy sauce. Because I paid $13.00 I ate the shrimp and some of the rice but tossed the rest. My first and last time at china sauté!!
Ordered the crab rangoon, chicken egg rolls, steamed dumplings, chicken lo mein, and pork egg foo young. The crab Rangoon was VERY good! Just the right ratio for breading and filling. Breading was light and crispy, filling was tasty, and sauce complimented it perfectly. I personally did not eat the egg rolls but my partner and mother in law did and they felt they were mediocre. The steamed dumplings were HUGE, and very filling, but pretty good especially with sauce. The chicken lo mein was very good however wish the chicken was a bit crispier. And lastly, the pork foo young was delicious but..they put the gravy on top rather than on the side (how I'm used to). Personally I'd rather it be on the side to prevent it from getting soggy but besides that point, it was very tasty. Would definitely order again. Also, saw some negative reviews about the front service receptionist. Whomever I talked to, they were very nice and accommodating. To each their own.
When I called I immediately requested delivery, she took my order then said it’ll be 10-15 min. I then repeated that it was a delivery. She says, “No delivery. Sorry have a good day,” and hung up. Wow! Will never eat here again. I’ve ordered in person but wasn’t aware they didn’t deliver. I would have been glad to pick it up if I was made aware. Save your money and go where you’ll be appreciated. I really think people still go here for convenience but there’s another Chinese restaurant nearby that delivers and has better food AND customer service.
Ordered chicken hibachi with fried rice quality was actually very good with nice size portions I got the regular size. The chili sauce is good but really hot so beware lol 😅🔥
My favorite chinese food restaurant in Charlotte, it reminds me of the restaurant I grew up on from back home called Taiwan's on university in Berkeley CA. Sweet and Sour shrimp, shrimp fried rice ( they do shrimp good) and chicken lo-mein in Cali it's called chowmein but we've adapted, & mama that answers the phone and handles the orders is so Sweet! #BAYMONEYTAROT on YouTube
Very tasty chinese food that we've tried so far. We like it that it is not so oily. They have big portions too. This will be our go-to chinese food place here in Albemarle
