Great Sichuan fusion fare that just gets your taste buds buzzing with great flavors. They tweak the menu seasonally. Interesting cocktails and very laid back and friendly but efficient service. Room is kind of kitschy with wooden tables and chairs and lively music. Great way to spend casual time with friends or favorite squeeze. Looking forward to returning soon.

We just left and my husband and I are both blown away. The vegan menu is nothing short of absolutely amazing. The mushrooms, green beans, clay pot and ice cream were all amazing!!! Oh and the 2 cocktails that we tried were fabulous. What a great experience! Can't wait to come

Best Chinese food I have ever had, even better than the ones I had in China. I was punched with flavors and savory aftertaste. Initially, I was skeptical and maybe a little upset that it’s vegan January. Turns out that I like them more than the meat versions, especially the steam buns.Feels like upscale Chinese dining but without the pretentiousness.Thanks for keeping Chinese food unapologetically real!

What a delightful place to eat dinner. The music was great and everyone working there had a smile to share. We had a server helping us but asked other employees for help on multiple occasions and they all obliged happily. No "let me find your server, etc" The dishes are super shareable so we got to eat a lot of things. Can't wait to visit again!

I love this restaurant so much! It's so good and spicy. I forgot to take pictures of everything we got but it was all delicious. The shots were fun! The waitress recommended the hong shao rou appetizer and it was incredible - the pork literally melted in your mouth. We also got the cucumbers and dry fried green beans, delicious! I got one of the new dishes on the fall menu, the sweet and sour pork with a side of rice. It was incredible and was so spicy! I ate every last bite. Highly recommend this place!

This place was really good but the Kung Pao was not. We tried to let them know we were disappointed in the kung pao and that we would like it taken off our bill. The server said she could not and she said she would get the manager. The manager came over asked what we didn't like about it. We discussed our opinion and he said he would have the chef check on it. He came back out and said that's how the chef prepares it and they would not take it off our bill or give us any sort of discount. Honestly bizarre and I have never had a restaurant deny taking off an item I was disappointed in. We ended up having to pay for a whole entree we did not eat. Highly disappointed in the service and we will not be coming back here because of this. Upsetting because the rest of the food was good and they lost a customer over a $20 entree. Trader Joe's honestly has better Kung Pao.

We greatly enjoyed the food and atmosphere at Kwei Fei. it is a little difficult to find but well worth the effort, it is actually at the Charleston Pour House which we didn't realize until we drove past it several times. We started with the crescent dumplings and the four rivers wings both were wonderful. we had the Gong Bao Ji Ding, Dan Dan Mian and the Chengdu-style Sweet & Sour Pork all of which were excellent. Everything was fresh and pleasing to the eye and pallet. the food can be spicy so don't hesitate to ask them to tone it down. I would suggest making a reservation, it does not have a large seating area and is very popular.
