26 Best Chinese Restaurants in Charleston

“Exactly what Charleston’s been missing. Creative menu- did someone say Burrata? I have tried most things on the menu and truly loved it all, although the Bass is still my #1. So fresh, tender, just melts in your mouth. So much flavor in every bite. Cocktails are innovative and right on point. And don’t sleep on the desserts- Midnight Snack with Fruity Pebbles.. trust me.. 🤤“

“This food was absolutely amazing! I split the scallion oil noodles with my friend (who is non-vegan and from China) and she was really impressed with how authentic the dish was. The portions of king pao mushrooms and general tso’s tofu were great too; I ended up with enough leftovers for lunch the next day. Updated from previous review on 2026-03-23“

“This food was delicious. On 3/17/2026 I came in and Ordered crab rangoon, boneless ribs (sweet and flavorful), chicken wings (perfect crunch, and amazing flavor. Wiah i ordered to orders), sweet and sour pork (great crunch), egg drop soup(so good! Not like just clear liquid whixh so many restaurantshave as rhe broth, actually had egg and rich flavor), elpork egg rolls, and cocunut chicken. The coconut chicken is what we most came for (nowhere around seems to have it any more! ) it was good flavor but definitely needed to have more sauce. Was a bit dry.

However, overall experience was great, will definitely be coming back.“

“Efficient and very nice service, I have noticed many customers seem to be regular here, all of them ordering to go.
They were busy and yet, aware of anything we could need.
I think, customers feel valued here.
Food is Cantonese style.Combination platters is a smart option.
Hot food, good variety.“

“The food was amazing! Try a little bit of everything and share with your table! Waiter is as so nice! The place had a line from the moment we arrived. Going back soon!!“

“Food was EXCELLENT! Fresh, hot and flavorful! The service was great! Very welcoming and friendly. Hands down some of the best I’ve had! Steak hibachi was outstanding and the sesame chicken with pork fried rice was a major hit with my husband and he is super picky! Definitely will be back! Thank you for this excellent meal!“

“I moved here from Seattle and thought I would never have amazing Chinese food again & I was sorely mistaken. This place is delicious we ordered the General Tso’s and chicken fried rice. We loved it so much we came back 2 days later 😄“

“Hands down the best breakfast joint in town. I work in the area and order the breakfast special to go. If you want to experience one of the staples of downtown cuisine in Guelph then Vienna has to be on your list.Vienna is cheaper, tastier, and more-bottomless-coffee-er than other popular breakfast places in Guelph such as Angel's, Wimpy's, or Apollo's.“

“Not exaggerating when I say this place is the best Chinese food I’ve ever had! I got the colonel Tso’s chicken and my wife got the shrimp foo yon that came with this brown sauce and I ended up using it with mine too it was so good. You get more than enough food we had leftovers for both of us. Price was fair and again the food was amazing. The girl that took our order and served our food was very nice and polite and we actually talked for a few after we ate and she told us some local things to check out. Food was so good we wanted to get more to take home but our drive is a little far lol definitely go check this place out but go hungry you will want more I promise!“

“Super Wok is one of my primary go to’s when I need a quick lunch, or a ready made dinner for the family. As a born and raised New Yorker, I know good Chinese food when I taste it, and this restaurant doesn’t disappoint at all. The restaurant is typical of a small restaurant where you rarely see people dining in, so almost no investment is made on the interior design and atmosphere. It is kept clean and orderly.“

“I’m one of those people that only goes to Chinese places for orange/honey chicken and, as a Charleston native, I’ve been to numerous Chinese places in the tricounty area. China Master takes the cake, not even close. I wasn’t even in the mood but they got me with a free sample and to my complete surprise I experienced a fried chicken that was audibly crispy and yet so tender while not being overly sweet. From one “Chinese chicken” connoisseur to another, I can not over hype this place. My eyes are open and I’ll never see the world in the same light ever again.“

“Online ordering, good service, pretty decent food. I wish you could adjust the level of spice a bit more and I don't know why they took all the good hot peppers out of everything but it is good food. Good dumplings, better than most places. The soups are also really good in flavor without too much msg.

Parking: Parking is super easy. It's in the corner near Harris teeter / the toddy shop, plenty of parking lot spots, never had any trouble.“

“Great food at reasonable prices and fast friendly service. Fried rice that comes with entree is best I’ve found in area. I’ve never been disappointed with any dish I’ve tried. It’s small and mainly a take out restaurant but does have some tables to eat inside. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing food with the kindest people running the place. My husband and I have been eating here for years and will always make the 20 minute drive from IOP for our favorite Chinese take out. Their veggie lo mein is amazing and my husband loves their chicken pad Thai! The lady that runs the counter is the sweetest and they always remember us when we come in!“

“Listen- Is the atmosphere the best? No- it's covered in plastic and old liquor boxes. There's no place to sit and eat.

But who cares? The food is absolutely some of the best take out I've ever had. Full of flavor and *generous* portions. One container of orange chicken lasts me three days.“

“My mom took me here after eating two slices of pizza and I was already full until my sister ordered me California rolls and I still ate it because it’s the best! I love it! From 6-year-old Lil Boy you gotta take my words! 😂😍❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 This js the mother reviewing now, lol My daughter ordered Tuna Belly sushi and she said it was phenomenal! The tuna was very fresh and tasty. I highly recommend it! My daughter says we are coming back. We even ordered To Go rolls. 😁 The service is excellent! We love it!!!!“

“The Wings were absolutely slamming, will definitely be going back.“

“China Chef on Saint James Avenue in Goose Creek is a great place to go for delicious and fresh Chinese food and more. I really like the menu and everything that they have available here. I have enjoyed all of the orders that I have made from here.“

“Dude, bulgogi spicy beef! that's where you win. this place is totally awesome.“

“This place is a super gem. After trying other Pho places, I found this one to be best. The chef sat down with me and explained how she makes the broths from scratch (no MSG!) Portions are huge with very fresh meats and vegetables. The pho is served with a side plate of limes, cilantro and/or basil and bean sprouts. The place is clean and the staff is great. Love, love this place!“

“There's a reason I have been eating here for 25 years and that's because I've never had anything I didn't like, food is always great, the family that runs it is kind and give excellent service. Doesn't matter if I move away I will always go out of my way to come back for more!“

“Thankyou for our wonderful # 8 dinner..I'm. Very happy to ight and will most probly order this way from now on. I'm very full and happy“

“Wonderful Chinese place in Charleston good very authentic and delicious egg drop soup that comes with duck sauce and soy sauce to add to the soup for extra flavor but their soup is so good full of chili pepper spice and delicious egg drop noodles highly recommend.“

“I enjoy going to Panda Express with the bottom line being the food is warm. The quality is nice and quantity is enough. I get it. It’s a little bit expensive for $10. You get one item and some size you spend another $10 then you can have a nice dinner buffet at a Chinese restaurant, but like I mentioned the quality and quantity is not bad and the freshness of food is good so I enjoy going there And I’m fairly a new member just about two months back. I became a member but I enjoy going there.“

“Not as good at chopsticks but however it’s not the worst restaurant in Charleston, it has decent egg drop soup but it’s environment is very strange it’s restaurant that feels Abonded and dingy but it’s food is decent. I prefer chopsticks.“

“Haven't gone shopping in a long time and wanted something yummy and cheap, at first this place didn't look the best with its reviews but I have to say that 80% of those review's have to be wrong because 1st the customer service was very nice I called and ordered my food simple and easy 2 the food was DELICIOUS my only complaint is that it could use some more salt but they give you soy sauce packets so it's works out, the chicken is nice and tender and the outside coating is just enough to be tasty but not to much, the fried rice is great to, BUT I LOVE there egg rolls, I got 2 of the pork egg rolls and it was DELICIOUS! 3rd there prices are so good, I was only convinced because of the 9.95 lunch special which is the BEST deal I have ever seen, the amount of food you get is amazing for the price. Overall any review on the food being bad either reviewed the wrong place or just got unlucky because my experience with this restaurant was amazing.“
