    The food was OK. Pretty standard fare. I knew I was in for a "treat" however when the hostess went to seat me at the table. Using her foot, she swept out the remnants of some other diner's meal with her foot. This included the, less than appetizing, crayfish shells and other nameless morsels. I can understand that wanted to tidy up a bit, but she merely left in a pile by the table u til it was swept away about fifteen minutes later. The picture I am including was from a table next to mine. You get the idea.

    I don't have super high expectations when it comes to going to a buffet but my friend wanted to stop here, so we did. We were sat at a table quickly and went to grab a plate. It wasn't until after eating that I saw a dead roach under my chair. I informed a waitress who shrugged her shoulders like it's a common complaint. If their dining room looks like this, I would hate to see the kitchen. Absolutely disgusting.

    Awful! I don't even know why we bothered to come here in the first place. We were next door looking at some glasses and thought why not stop in try a bite to eat it may not be horrible after all. We walk in and it's disgusting! The doors are all finger printed no one has bothered to clean those doors in maybe 3 weeks. They print everywhere how they have cameras to watch you eat- hmmm, uncomfortable. We literally had one plate and left. The sodas tasted awful! I bet if the South Carolina health department entered this location they'd shut it down immediately!!!! This place is awful. They have dirty floors, dirty tables, dirty windows and doors, we asked for plastic forks as the forks they gave us were dirty as well. Just don't go it's beyond disgusting! I wish I could give it a -10! This restaurant should be investigated.

    Spit the food out it sucks rats and roaches!! Macaroni was so disgusting tried to eat but my stomach got upset!! Not worth your money!!

    No stars!! There food is nasty!!! Run it not good everything is nasty!! They say it's fresh but it's not the taste!! The taste is rebury and it's old!! Please don't eat raza no coman aquí está feo y te obligan a pagar u que no te guste!! Y también te piden propina!! Ahora si llevas más de 7 personas ahora te quiere cobrar mucho más ojo lo que te cobran!!

    China Buffet on Rivers Avenue in North Charleston is a great place to get quality Chinese food at a really good value. The food here is consistently fresh, well prepared, and delicious. I like coming here for lunch or dinner after a really long day. They have really good customer service here and work hard to make sure that you are happy and have a good meal. It is good to have a good Chinese restaurant in this location.

    Omg, where do I begin... The place is HUGE!! Well lit and nicely decorated ... But our waitress struggled with the language barrier so it was hard sometimes to understand what she was telling or asking us. My boyfriend and I came to Charleston for the weekend and were determined to find a place with all you can eat crab legs because they closed the place where we're from. We had SERIOUS sticker shock though... $31.99 per person?!?!?!?! Plus a drink!!! Ouch!! The food was really good but if I had access to crab legs I wouldn't pay that price. Other than that we had a great dining experience.

    The food is good and the service is decent. It can be pretty loud and crowded depending on the time of day.

    Worst Chinese buffet I've been to in this area. There's imitation crab meat in everything. Most foods are very bland.

    I was definitely on the fence regarding eating at Old Li's Restaurant... Why? Preconceived ideas…read morebased on nothing basically. How wrong was I?! Old Li's is an outstanding authentic Asian restaurant. I loved it. No reservations required and plenty of tables. It's a very clean well ordered establishment. Also plenty of free parking right outside. The staff could not have been any better, prompt, attentive & very knowledgeable about the menu. The round table we sat had had a "lazy Susan" to facilitate the sharing of dishes. We ordered based on recommendations, personal taste & heat levels. The dishes were absolutely delicious. So good. I think the Peking Duck was the star of the show. If you are seeking Asian authenticity & phenomenal family service.. Old Li's in N. Charleston near Tanger outlet is your place to go. Of note the prices cannot be beat. A really nice change!!

    Beautiful Chinese-themed Restaurant, nice relaxing atmosphere…read more Stopped in for lunch on Friday afternoon with a coworker; we were the only twoin the place for the 30 minutes we were there. Service was prompt and friendly. Ordered the stir fried beef and green pepper lunch, includes a soft drink. Food arrived quickly and had good flavor but lacking something to put it in the great cateogry. Love the boiled egg that was included. Overall a good visit, I'll return to check out something else on the menu.

    How have I not eaten at JF before?! I feel like I have been missing out. I visited on a Saturday…read morefor lunch and sat at the bar. The whole place feels quaint and local, yet refined and classy. First off I love that it's a full service bar and eating at the bar is no problem. Second I absolutely love they sell pitchers of beer. Not many taps, but still pitchers. And it's mostly local beer. I was with my husband and we wanted to try several things and took recs from the bartender who was awesome. We ordered the pork dumplings, the scallion pancake and the spicy sichuan hot karaage rice bowl. And we made it a combo with miso soup and an egg roll for $4. The pork dumplings were SO good. I could eat a meal of those alone. They were dense and flavorful and the dipping sauce was slightly spicy. The scallion pancake was a surprise delight. It was crispy and not too greasy again with a delicious dipping sauce. The miso soup...chefs kiss. It looked like ordinary miso soup but there was something extra that we really loved!! And the egg roll was big and juicy and fried and wonderful. It's a veggie egg roll but don't let that fool you. So much flavor and again the sweet chili dipping sauce left us drooling. Most of those sauces are too sweet but this was the perfect blend and the perfect spice level. The rice bowl was full of flavor!! The spice on this is quite a lot so make sure you can handle heat if you order the "hot" version. But again lots of flavor not just hot. Thank god we didn't order anymore food because this was plenty for the two of us to leave full and honestly we could've had leftovers. We will 1000% be visiting again and fully understand the hype around this phenomenal restaurant!!

    Asian food traditionalists will think I'm blasphemous for saying this, but I liked the food at…read moreJackrabbit Filly. All the dishes we ordered, from the miso soup and pierogis with salsa macha, to the karaage-don and peanut noodles, were savory and satisfying to eat. The texture and appearance of the chicken for the karaage-don bore more of a resemblance to General Tso's chicken with its battered and crunchy exterior, and it didn't quite have the tender and juicy interior I was hoping for, but I enjoyed the lemon mayo pairing which resulted in a flavorful finish. The Peanut Noodles reminded me of certain iterations of Dan Dan Noodles and certainly tasted fine on its own, but adding the thick chunks of bacon/pork belly was essential in elevating this dish to the next level. The restaurant was very lively on a Thursday afternoon, and the staff very warm and inviting throughout our meal. My drink hit the mark for me, and I found the cocktail menu fun and creative. In fact, I would say "fun and creative" summed up our overall experience at Jackrabbit Filly. Just ask my daughter, who started dancing the entire lunch the moment she saw the disco lights in the bathrooms.

    My family and I love the Asian fusion Grill. It is one of our go to places for hibachi and Asian…read morestyle foods. It is a small location, but producers quality food. We initially went there for the hibachi and enjoyed the food so much that we had to go back to try other things on the menu. Between my wife and I, we have tried the steak and shrimp, and just steak hibachi with fried rice and have been impressed with both. From there we expanded and tried their wontons, and their onion soup, both of which have been delicious! The soup can be a little spicy or over seasoned at times but it's a great appetizer to share while you wait for the main course. My sister has tried some of their sushi and said it was really good as well. My favorite has become the chicken teriyaki dish with fried rice. The staff is always super friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is a bit small so we tend to order pick up most of the time but we have eaten there a couple of times and have always been very pleased with the cleanliness and service.

I would estimate maybe two medium shrimp per each roll. The remainder of the roll contained lettuce, fresh herbs, rice noodles and shredded carrots. I think they are not worth the price due to the lack of protein. My sister walked past me eating it and asks "when did you go get a salad?" That goes to show you how much lettuce was within the roll. Lol Customer service seemed attentive, the interior appeared clean. If I return I won't order this again.
