I work in Charleston. I live in Georgia. I’m constantly asking coworkers opinions about different foods in the area. Recently I had a taste for Chinese. It was recommended to try China Palace. Needless to say it will be my last time. Walking into the establishment made me want to try some place else to eat, however looks can be deceiving. Looking at the menu I wasn’t sure what to try. I have a rule that when ordering Chinese and undecided order shrimp fried rice. You can’t go wrong. Well the photo attached says it all. Some cooked rice with an egg scrambled hard and some cooked shrimp. That was it. Was not good at all. There were a few shrimp with a container filled with rice. It was a waste of money. By the way you can only order to go. They aren’t set up for dining in. Once again not sure anyone would want to eat here after walking through the door. I started looking for the restaurant inspection sticker hanging around to see what grade they were given. I noticed one other person that came in for an ordered that they called in. A local no doubt. Once again this was a clear case of people not knowing what good taste like and settle for less. As I type my review I saw how others rated this place very high. Don’t be fooled people. It was not good at all.

Food is completely trash!!!!!! Not sure what’s going on but I’ll never eat there again. They’ve gone downhill. Fried chicken tastes like rubber, rice taste like it was just sitting and all they did was warmed it up and not fresh!!

I wouldn’t come here again if the food that they serve is terrible. I went to this place on Friday at 9 pm, and I was hungry at that time. So, I ordered one dish (if not, a plate) of chicken wings with shrimp fried rice, and I have to say, the price was somewhat expensive: $14.25! After I paid for the meal, I waited for what it looked like to be 15 minutes. Finally, she comes out with the food in her hand. I take it home. Once, I took a first bite, I was very disappointed with it. The wings had 2x oil in it and it caused my hands to be completely greasy thereafter. Never in my life I would expect such a thing like that from them.

Post covid only takeout. But staff was friendly and with quick service. Menu isn’t posted online. So I added photos

We arrived around 8:30 and the first thing said to us was “we close at 9:30”. Baffled because, that’s a whole hour and we weren’t planning on staying that long, I just said okay and we sat down. The waitress didn’t even come to the table, but yelled across a couple of tables asking what we wanted to drink. We got food, sat down to eat and talked while doing so. The food wasn’t really that great, but we could blame it on them closing in an hour (I’ll give some grace here). The restaurant was empty at this point besides one rogue person fixing a to go plate, yet both of our drinks were completely empty and about 5-6 employees were just standing around talking to one another. We ended up just sitting and talking because we weren’t thrilled with the experience in general and a lady came over to our table and said “can I go ahead and take your payment so I can close my register out. You can continue to eat, but I’d like to close your check.” I looked at my phone and it was BARELY 9pm. At this point I was just extremely irritated. I understand you close at 9:30, but approaching our table at 9pm to close us out is just mind boggling. $50 for a bad experience start to finish was definitely not worth it, but we will not be returning.

Usually say fifteen minutes, however you should expect it to be around twenty-five. It is worth the wait. Right price for great food. Sweet lady always smiling. Sometimes they do get the order wrong, but so far for me there’s never an issue with correcting it. Still worth it.

Went here for a quick dinner . Had an order of chicken wings and chicken wings with egg fried rice . They told us 15 mins & the food wasn’t ready for another 30 mins . We checked the food and it seemed good . Until we broke apart the chicken . It was too breaded and it was slimy and white in the middle . The gristle and bone was red brown . I had to cook my chicken extra when i got home . It was soo much grease coming out ! The rice had one egg and no onions & i requested onions . I would NEVER EAT here again. I know what Chinese is supposed to taste like and this is not it !

I ordered a large beef lo mein and a large shrimp with broccoli and the egg rolls. Thier portions are crazy big, but after the first bite I could tell why, they are trying to get rid of the food. The lo mein is made with spaghetti noodles , like 10 pieces of beef in the entire container of lo mein. The shrimp with broccoli came in some sort of clear sauce but neither of the dishes have any flavor. The eggs rolls are not egg rolls, they are spring roll wrappers with dumpling filling no cabbage at all. Between all of our food (I was with a group) we wasted $75 dollars and had to eat elsewhere.
