    Lunch portion - General Tso's Chicken
    Stephen P.

    For context, I been to pretty much every Chinese food restaurant in the Ballantyne area on my quest to find a quick and delicious take out lunch option for those times when I am craving some General Tso's, and I realized that it had been a while since I gave Asian One a shot, so I figured what better time than the present right? Overall, this place isn't good, isn't bad, it is just kinda eh, as the portions aren't that large and the prices aren't a great value and nothing really stands out at all. Again, it is not bad if you are in the area and need a quick fix, but even though it is less than 5 minutes away, I have no problem driving by it on the way to other places that provide more flavor, larger portions and a better value.

    Sesame Chicken Dinner Special
    Christina G.

    I was quite confused when I picked up my to-go order, but the food portion size and taste were good. When I arrived, I noticed that there was a bag of food on the table closest to the door, as well as a bag of food next to the cash register. They keep a makeshift barricade near the front entrance that is about 20 feet away from the cash register so they definitely maintain social distancing to the max between staff and customers. I was told multiple times that I was #2. I never understood what that meant since I did not order menu item #2, nor did my receipt indicate that I was #2 (when I checked it later). I did, however, order 2 items. Still, I was very confused when my payment was collected and I was not handed any food. I thought I would be receiving the bag that was sitting by the cash register. Eventually, I was told that the bag on the table closest to me was "#2" and therefore mine. Once I opened my container of food, I realized that my Sesame Chicken (dinner special, $8.89, served with fried rice and egg roll) was covered in a red-orange sauce that strongly resembled sweet and sour sauce. Needless to say, I was confused all over again. Clearly, it had sesame seeds too so surely, it had to be the correct order, but when I ordered this dish from other restaurants in the past, it always came in a brown sauce. Still, I enjoyed my meal, even though it tasted more like sweet and sour chicken.

    Fly in Sesame Chicken broccoli
    Taylor S.

    I really wanted to give them a higher score because honestly they make the best Asian food in Charlotte. They also deliver so that's nice too! It's fairly priced and it's really good. I didn't want to post this either, but this is the second time this has happened to us, and we've only eaten here 3 times and someone else posted about it previously as well. Everything is great about this place except I have now found a bug in my food, twice. The first time I found a giant mosquito in my shrimp lo mein and now I have found a fly in my sesame chicken. I understand this happening occasionally, but two times, and to someone else? I don't know if they're leaving the doors open or what, maybe consider a screen door or something if they need it open for fresh air. I still will probably continue to order my Chinese from here though because it is really good, but the bug problem is disgusting.

    Doesn't any Chinese restaurant in Charlotte serve real fried rice? Fried rice is not soggy, sticky and soaked with soy sauce.

I was in one of those "I need noodles immediately" moods, and Sun's Kitchen did not disappoint. I called my order in for takeout, and everything was packed perfectly. No leaks, no mess, still hot when I got home, and the portion was surprisingly generous for the price. The dan dan noodles here are rich, savory, a little spicy, and incredibly comforting. If you're not familiar with them, dan dan noodles are a classic Sichuan street food dish from Chengdu traditionally tossed in a spicy, numbing ma-la sauce with pork, scallions, and pickled vegetables. Sun's Kitchen does a really delicious version that's flavorful without feeling too heavy. The noodles have that perfect chewy texture, and every bite has just enough heat to keep you going back for more. If you're someone who's curious about ethnic food but maybe unsure where to start, this is honestly a great entry-level dish. Yes, there's a little spice, but it's approachable and balanced. The dining room itself is modern and beautiful, and now that they serve beer and wine, I definitely need to come back and enjoy a full dine-in experience instead of rushing home with takeout. The only caveat is the parking lot can get a little chaotic since it's shared with neighboring businesses, especially during busy hours. But trust me, it's worth circling for a spot. Charlotte, there's a big wide world of food out there, and places like Sun's Kitchen make exploring it easy and delicious. Get out there and eat your way through it.

It is busy enough that plenty of other people had also called in for takeout. The price was higher than I thought it would be by a significant margin; I thought something was off but then rechecking their menu I saw it was indeed $20 for a vegetable entree. On the upside, they did offer brown rice at no extra charge. Still, I'll get three meals out of it and as someone who eats a lot of takeout, this was not a great value. In terms of quality, I was thrilled to find that they offered a stir-fried okra dish. This is a ubiquitous Indian dish, and of course okra is common throughout the tropics globally, but I'd never seen this offered at a Chinese restaurant before. And the rapid cooking technique typical of the cuisine produced a delightfully crisp vegetable, which went great with a black bean sauce and some very hot dried chilis. On the other hand, their interpretation of ma po tofu had some fermented broad beans but minimal vegetables (sometimes you get mushrooms or peas or at least some leeks or something) and no numbing sensation. They had a bean curd roll dish that I enjoyed, and some quality dumplings. Overall, not huge portions and a mix of okay to great quality.

    The fried rice and stir-fried okra together are amazing. Food is always good!…read more The ambiance is outdated but the service is exceptional.
