34 Best Chinese Restaurants near James Island

“Awesome place to eat, I had no idea it was right next to the pour house. The service was awesome, the suggestions were better and I know I’ll be making a 2nd return maybe even a 3rd. The atmosphere was great and they had a beautiful bar and more seating outside which is covered my plants so you’d never know there would be seating. It also blocks the traffic, I would have to say I did love the drinks but I’d rather a cider beer. But I managed and overall an awesome place.“

“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.. 🤤“

“Great food! You can tell the products are fresh and made with pride! Had the tuna eggroll special, best one I've had! Sat outside but fans were on and was a nice night. Service was good. Will go back when visiting SC again!“

“Bottom line up front: Amazing food and great atmosphere!

I’ve been fans of Kwei Fei since back in the days of their pop ups at The Daily. They’ve always brought the heat (literally) and have been eager to try this new venture, Beautiful South.

Stopped in for Sunday Brunch and it did not disappoint. The char siu fried rice had that familiar wok char and was on point! Also had the char siu bao, salt and pepper pork, and shumai. It brought back memories of dim sum in the Bay Area (big compliment) but without the old lady that gets mad when u don’t like what she has on her cart! ?

Wish I had taken pics, but honestly was too busy eating!“

“The food and the service were exceptional. Had braised pork last time and it was 10/10. Got the spicy fish this time!“

“Solid carry out place close to home that can’t be beat. There’s really only a wait when it’s super busy, but those times the good is extra hot!

I really like the hot and sour soup, the roast pork lo mein is smoky and tasty . We haven’t had a bad meal from this place“

“this place was really good the family was nice and the food was really good

Vegetarian options: yummy

Parking: Good and huge parking space

Kid-friendliness: very kind

Wheelchair accessibility: my grandpa was able to fit through the door“

“Although the review and commendation is somewhat belated, I wanted to recognize the restaurant in general and, particuiarly, the friendly and competent service by our server, Carl. He was very helpful, and he made our experience at the restaurant very special! Thanks to Carl for that! We’ll be back!“

“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.“

“Decided last minute to order from here and it was well worth the decision. Everything was full of flavor and large portions reasonably priced. Got the honey wings, crab rangoon, ma po tofu, general tsos chicken, house special mei fun, and egg rolls. Will be ordering from them again!“

“Food is just as good as it is at most places similar to this style. I haven’t had a bad meal from here yet. I’ve have visited on multiple occasions. It’s always ready in 10 minutes! The restaurant was clean. Staff was very polite and listened to me.“

“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!!!!“

“I don't live in SC anymore but I still visit and work in North Charleston. Often I'll try and get into Mr. Chows and order food. His food is great! The atmosphere the neighborhood leave a lot to be desired, but it's incredibly good.“

“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.“

“Been coming here for years...food and service are always top notch“

“I love it, haters can hate, but I always keep coming back. Pepper steak is always on point, Shrimp and Broccoli on point, if the commentators here said they're food was cold was probably BC they don't actually come when they're told.“

“Really BIG portions and tasty too.Ask for Angie and tell her T*Bone recommended and you'll get the hookup!I recommend and if you agree, gimme them thumbs up ??????

Vegetarian options: Great variety of veggies only

Parking: Lots of free parking, but lock your doors cuz there's roaming bandits ?“

“very friendly, helpful, staff. the summer rolls and pho are great, for sure. to be honest, I haven't tried too much more bc I love those so much. I will say, I've been eating here (dining in and out) for roughly ten years and it's consistently great with consistently great service. quality ingredients. I have had good bubble tea here as well. my son and I love it here and any friend I've taken or told about it.“

“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.“

“While mine was just ok, everyone else loved their food, hence the 5-star review. I ordered steamed rice and steamed vegetables, hence bland. But without oil, how I like it. The Mongolian beef with rice seemed to be a standout. Eggdrop soup just ok too. & 5 stars for being open on Christmas too.“

“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.“

“Always get the general tso it’s always amazing perfect amount of sweet and spicy absolutely love this place

Kid-friendliness: Always happy to see us

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking ramps to get on sidewalk“

“Kind of skeptical about coming here because there were very few reviews and no menu online ????. I had a Chinese food craving so beyond belief so this was one I decided to roll the dice on and so glad I did. The restaurant is not open for dine in most likely due to covid-19. They have made a make shift take out window through the front door. They have the menu taped on the window and plenty of menus on the take out table. You place your order, go back to your vehicle or chill outside, about 10 mins later you go back up to the door to see if your food is ready because they do not notify you. The food is great, flavorful, price is right and awesome portion sizes. I can make 2 meals out of 1 and will keep coming back.“

“Great takeout, fast service at an affordable price. I called ahead and placed my order, which was ready in 15 minutes. The food was hot and delicious. I wasn’t sure how big the portions were so I ordered quite a bit of food and had leftovers for several days. This is my new comfort takeout spot.“

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

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

“It’s your typical Chinese restaurant. I was sad that they didn’t have Pad Thai, but the sweet and sour chicken was good! My husband loved their General Tso’s. The egg roll was good, it doesn’t taste like what I’m used to. I’m from a different state so I’m used to my usual place I go to. My daughter was upset and the one guy gave her a cup that lights up. Overall, we were happy and would return next time we’re in town.“

“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!“

“I always eat hear when I’m loading asphalt from Sanders Bro’s. It’s just easy and convenient for me to get in and out. The wife is cool and I deal with her 99% of the time. The husband on the other hand cooks better than she does but is not a people person.“

“Wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted to eat and headed over to the Palace. Always super good, great service, and impressive attention to detail. Ordered the savory spice chicken, was pleasantly surprised to discover it was a soup of sorts. Tender chicken, yummy broth, and scallions finely sliced with care. Got it Togo, the waiter was delightful. Thanks DP!“

“This is the typical Chinese food you’ll find in the North East. The other places I’ve tried down here all I can taste is sugar but here you actually get some flavor and heat.

We’ve had the Mongolian chicken which I enjoy, the general Tao’s chicken which people seem to really like, and the kung pao chicken also came out nicely.

Portion sizes are generous, prices are good. Service is no nonsense and quick because of it.

It is definitely our go to spot for Chinese take out, not really a sit down place tho“

“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“
