50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Charlotte

“A family favorite for many years. Was back in town after a few years and went there for dinner takeout. Quantity and overall taste was good - a little bland and too saucy.
Took a few points on service as the take out guy gave me grief about requesting fortune cookies and utensils.“

“Ho Ho is my partner and I’s go to spot for Chinese food in Charlotte. It’s nice that we are able to order all vegetarian; we usually get the spring rolls, fried rice, crab rangoon, and sesame tofu. The food is always very tasty, and it’s a pretty good bang for your buck. Also, the woman who hands us our food when we pick up always brightens our day, she’s very polite and always seems happy to see us.“

“Sun's Kitchen is perfect for a little snack or a full-on indulgent meal with multiple courses. This is great to feed a lot of people and for entertaining out of town guests, when you want to show off Charlotte's food scene. They have an expansive menu, with beer and limited cocktails.“

“New favorite restaurant. Great service. Great food. Great prices. I would recommend Ma Ma Wok to anyone.“

“Haven't been in years and stopped in with my husband on an unexpected date night. The service was amazing our waitress was so kind, made recommendations, and even offered a free appetizer. Bottles of wine were 50% off to our surprise. Good meal and value!“

“I love going the is always good“

“Amazing! I have had nothing but great experiences here!“

“10/10! The food is delicious and the staff is friendly. The food tasted so fresh. I’ve been to China and the decor and ambience reminded me of my time in China. I loved the portion sizes to do family style so we tasted 4 dishes. The Mongolian beef was some of the best my family and I tasted! The fried onions and pepper on the bottom of the salt and pepper shrimp was delicious. The fried rice wasn’t too oily and the fish was nice and tender. We got the fish steamed and didn’t feel weighted down. Everything was amazing and fresh!“

“A week ago, We were craving Chinese food but was hesitant to order any because we hadn’t found any really good Chinese food anywhere around our area. We found Fortune Wok on Google Maps and had never been here before. We ordered quite a few things for take-out. To our amazement, EVERYTHING was delicious and surpassed our expectations by a mile! We are getting ready to go back again tonight! And we are so excited because we know it’s going to be amazing!!!“

“The food was awesome. And fair prices too. My grandson ordered sushi and a noddle dish, I had beef and broccoli. He had ice tea, and I had water or bill was $43.95. It was the best beef and broccoli I had it was served with a large bowl of white rice. I will go again on my next visit to Charlotte “

“I love this place. been going there for 12 years and counting. Yummy scallion chicken with fried rice & egg is delicious. Definitely give you plenty. Veggie fried rice good too!“

“The best meal I’ve had In charlotte in years. Order an A1. Don’t worry about what’s in it. It’s amazing.“

“I've been coming here for A+ Chinese food since 2006. Pork fired rice is 🤤🤤🤤🥰. FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED IS A BIG +++. It's a take out only spot so don't expect to sit down. No digital payments accepted so bring CASH OR CARD.
I will continue eating here for the foreseable future.“

“A restaurant that serves fresh and delicious food, run by only three staff members: a cook, a dishwasher, and a lady who has been managing the place for 22 years and owns three dogs. I was satisfied with the food and hope they continue their business. However, I suggest they clean the restroom better and avoid using it as a storage area. My total bill for food and drinks was only $28.“

“Great food and an insanely good value on the lunch menu. I would recommend anything on the lunch menu, very good value. Anna is extremely nice and courteous.

They have very fast service and I've never received anything that wasn't thoroughly cooked and delicious.

This has become my go-to place for chinese food in my area.“

“My favorite sushi spot 😋👍🏿“

“I have been eating at this Chinese place for over 20 years. I promise you it is the best Chinese place in the world very clean sometimes quick service because they are very known on Fridays and Saturday there may be a wait but it’s definitely worth the wait I literally eat here every day
I love them.“

“Tried their food for the first time tonight. IT WAS AMAZING!!! My whole family enjoyed it. Definitely a perfect name for this restaurant. We will get take-out there again for sure.“

“*Excellent Food and Service – Highly Recommend!*

This Chinese restaurant is an absolute gem! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. From the crispy egg rolls to the savory lo mein and delicious fried rice, every dish I've tried has been spot on.

The service is just as impressive—friendly, fast, and welcoming. The staff makes you feel right at home, and everything is always prepared with care. The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get.

Whether you're dining in or taking out, this place never disappoints. It’s definitely become one of my go-to spots for great Chinese food. Highly recommend!“

“We go here often for the best local Chinese food. It's always ultra fast service and the menu items you expect done very well. I also truly appreciate their support of local schools. The thank you posters in the lobby say it all! My kids love coming in just to see their class's poster, and Panda's Den has been doing this for years. Quiet spot for a business lunch too. Dine-in or takeout are both great options. Parking is fine, just be careful as they are on a busy corner and people often cut through the parking area. Good food. Get some. Now I'm hungry....“

“From the moment I walked in, everyone at Great Wall of China made me feel so welcome — the service was warm, attentive, and genuine. And the food? Easily some of the best Chinese I’ve ever had. Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. You can tell they take pride in what they do. This place is a true gem in Charlotte — I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“i come here or get take out weekly. Its one of the best chinese restaurants I've been too in charlotte. the staff is warm and welcoming. the food is easily customizable. I've not had a bad meal here. i like the garlic sauce here with any meat. their spring rolls are killer good. I'm a fan of their soups especially hot and sour. it not a huge restaurant, but they have decorated it very nice. the food is always piping hot even the togo food... I enjoy it as often as I can. you should help support this mom and pop place. its well worth it.“

“The service was great. My favorite thing to eat there are the chicken lettuce wraps but the lettuce was so small you couldn't really wrap anything. They basically stated that all their lettuce as of right now are small so that was the only hiccup.“

“To all my chicken and broccoli champions. My lo mein lovers. This is the take out spot for you. Hailing from the north east, the two take out foods nearest and dearest to my heart are:

-pizza
-& Chinese take out

This is the only spot in the entire City that does Chinese take out the way NYC does it. Highly recommend!

Also the dude behind the counter is a gem and always hooks it up with the fortune cookies.“

“I ordered a delivery of General Tso's chicken, house special fried rice, and steamed dumplings.... everything was awesome!!!!!! They delivered to my hotel room and they will be my first choice when I'm back in town. Delivery was fast!!!!“

“One of my favorites in Charlotte! They treat you like family every single time ❤️“

“It's a really impressive buffet. I saw something like 6 rows of steam trays. Everything from sushi to seafood to fried and baked chicken to broccoli and beef and the like. I'll definitely be back. Lots of variety, and the quality was very solid for an all you can eat joint.“

“Amazing restaurant, great atmosphere, and the best general tso’s I have ever had. The way i gage how good a Chinese restaurant is, is by getting general chicken. Here it’s not greasy and feels healthy. I have been coming back for months now!“

“I have consistently been going to this restaurant for around 4 years and i have never had a bad experience with the food. The food is at a budget friendly price while also having large portions that can feed the whole family with just one plate!“

“Got the shrimp fried rice. You can definitely taste the MSG. This rice was good but the shrimp tasted bland. Very small sitting area but the waitress was very friendly. You can tell it is a local favorite and has plenty of regular customers.“

“Got some takeout from here and it really hit the spot. The chicken with veggies was fresh, saucy, and had just the right kick of spice. Broccoli and peppers were cooked perfectly, not soggy at all. rice on the side was a nice touch too. Solid, tasty meal – I’d definitely order again“

“I ordered Sesame Chicken, pork lime in and chicken fried rice…excellent. Sesame chicken best I have had. Highly recommend.“

“ordered sesame chicken and it's the best Chinese I believe I've ever had...I will deff be back for more!“

“Me and my father had seen this local restaurant down the road and decided to try their food. Best desicion ever!!-friendliest staff ever-we were vegetarian and theycustomized their non veg dishes for us.We ordered egg rice with veg lo mein and a spring roll. They were bussing, the rice was chewy and the lo mein was incredibly delicious. The lo mein had this savory taste, can't explain it but all I can say was that it was fire. Was filling and a great place to dine in for lunch! I totally recommend this place!! ♡“

“This is our second time visiting in 3 days! The sesame chicken and chicken fried rice are delicious! It’s rare to find the sesame chicken that hasn’t been cooked too long and it be tough to eat. This is superbly made! My husband got the chicken and broccoli plate and he said it’s delicious also. We will definitely be going back!“

“The food was very good and hot, rightfully so. We came in about right when they just opened. Our waiter was very nice and friendly. Overall the staff were all nice. It's been a minute since we've been at this restaurant, but we will be coming back.“

“This is the first spot to have food that tastes like home to me. The flavors taste fresh and not overpowering. I returned a few days/ week later to enjoy more. I do wish they took cards bc it's cash only. There is an atm nearby- our food came within the said time. The shrimp lo mein, teriyaki chicken on a stick and shrimp egg foo young are perfection. Shrimp rolls just as delicious. I didn't care for the white rice or brown sauce for the egg foo young- it has a word unfamiliar taste and unlike most places with a darker brown sauce.“

“This is my first time here. Google said it closes at 9 and i called at 910 and they took my order anyway. The house lo mein had a healthy amount of meat. Ill come back for sure. I noticed that the review score was low and wasnt going to go until i realized how rough the area was and ALL of the restuarants had bad ratings. It must be tough when all your customers are stressed out. All in all, dont let the rating fool you. This place is GOOD! And i drive semi trucks. I try food from everywhere. I would know. Worth a shot in my book. Glad i tried it“

“Ugh, darn pandemic! Usually in b.c. days, the food here was tasty and plentiful. We did take out, was craving coconut chicken and Vietnamese rolls. It's not good this round.

Update: So much beter!! Finally, I got my coconut chicken and Vietnamese rolls. ?“

“The prices are good I’ve passed by this places millions of times and never stopped not because I’m a high class bougie man .the shrimp fried rice was great and the bbq wings are big and good they could fry the rice and use a little more seasonings “

“The Cashew Shrimp is the most delicious thing I have tried so far! A lot of places put a ton of celery and a few nuts and a few shrimp but HERE? You get a perfect blend of mushrooms, peas, carrots, cashews and shrimp and it is just so amazing! The woman who works up front is also the sweetest lady I’ve ever met and this is my and my husbands go to for Chinese.“

“Amazing food!!! Lots of vegan options and the owner, Minae, is such a sweet person. I love going here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“Aunque estaba full de gente este domingo que fuimos, había mucha variedad y la comida en su punto! Muy recomendado.🫶“

“Just ordered delivery from this place and it’s fantastic, exactly what I was craving. If you’re looking for classic, cheap americanized chinese food then this is it. I have been in search of a go to chinese takeout place in Charlotte, and after about 10 different places I have finally found it. It is identical to the place around the corner from my house when I was growing up. The yellow fried rice, lo mein, eggrolls, moo goo gai pan, and sweet and sour chicken are all exactly the same. The dumplings were unexpectedly more like bao than gyoza, but were fantastic. The teriyaki chicken on a stick was great, but only came with 2. Again, super happy to have found this place.“

“Just order online and go pick it up, it's easy and always correct.“

“Best Chinese food in Charlotte maybe even North Carolina lol. Coming from NY/NJ it’s hard to find something even close but this right here is close enough ! From service to food to atmosphere reminds me of back home, had the beef lo main, fried chicken wings, rice and broccoli“

“I’ve been to several Fortune Cookies. This has got to be the best one. The girl named T was so professional and helpful. She was so nice and patience. She helped me pick out what I want since I was so indecisive. Food was super fresh and delicious. Portion was really good for the price I paid!“

“This is a very small physical place period but the food is one thousand percent fantastic. If everyone has been pleasant and kind including delivery people. I have not had anything bad here yet and the Pork egg rolls are fantastic. Light crispy and delicious. I now have our new favorite chinese delivery place.“

“I was a traveler through this area picking up my daughter and came across this place. Where I live they do not have good Chinese food, I’m from NY so I look for a specific taste and this place was definitely it! I ordered the general chicken, shrimp garlic sauce, pork fried rice and egg rolls and it was ABSOLUTELY delicious and very flavorful. I definitely ENJOYED!!“

“This is the only place that I know of that serves pig intestines using "Pah Lo" seasoning. It is cheaper if you pay cash. I always spend about $20 when I come here. It is worth it though. It is a niche shop. I am thankful to have found it, but it isn't for everybody.“
