Reviews
Shout out to Ying for being an amazing server! My sister does not like spicy food, and Ying explained what items they could accommodate to not be spicy for us. She was very personable and we both left with smile on our face from our encounter with her.
My sister and I already have plans to visit again the next time were in Charlotte!
This dining venue offers a unique interior design but struggles with service and food execution, leaving room for improvement across various aspects of the dining experience.
Atmosphere:
The restaurant presents a unique layout with distinctive panda-themed tables that add character to the dine-in area. However, the front desk setup gives off more of a takeout vibe, which might confuse expectations for new visitors.
Service: 3.4/10
Service appeared overwhelmed despite a manageable crowd, indicating possible issues with staff efficiency or organization. The delivery of food was delayed, and the complimentary wonton shells provided were stale and unappealing, detracting significantly from the dining experience.
Food:
Appetizers: 4.9/10
The appetizers were underwhelming, resembling the quality typically expected from takeout rather than dine-in. Nothing in the selection distinguished itself as particularly noteworthy.
General Gau: 5.1/10
The dish was competently prepared with good quality chicken but lacked a standout element to elevate it above average. The chicken was not as crispy as desired, and the inclusion of only green peppers was uninspired. Although the flavor was bold, it did not surpass expectations.
Pork Fried Rice: 5.9/10
A slightly above-average dish, it featured a generous mix of veggies and egg, enhancing the texture and flavor, though the pork itself lacked distinctiveness, blending too subtly into the background.
Value: 5.7/10
At $51 before tax for three people, including leftovers to take home, the meal provided reasonable value for money given the overall quality and quantity of food served.
The food was awesome! I had Hunan beef and the table had crab rangoons and fried pork wontons. All were excellent.
You won’t go wrong choosing imperial Garden Chinese.
