Wan Fu is stamped as the best Chinese spot in Charlotte and I'll Stan by that! Every time someone…read moreasks me where to get good Chinese food, this is the first place that comes to mind. The food is always consistent, and that's what keeps me coming back here. I visited during lunch, and they only had two servers working, so service was a little slower than usual. To start, I ordered the spring roll, then had the Wan Fu Scallops and the Singapore Rice Noodles. The spring roll was crispy and hit the spot. The Singapore noodles were packed with flavor and had a nice spicy kick. If you're not big on spice, I'm sure they can tone it down if you ask. The Wan Fu Scallops were tender and just as delicious. I've been here several times, and the quality never disappoints. Consistency is hard to find, but Wan Fu gets it right every time. If you're looking for Chinese food in Charlotte that's worth coming back for, this is the spot.

The booths are now Orange, giving the place a brighter look. The fake Cherry Blossom Tree still stands though. Well, I couldn't stop myself from reordering my fave dish in all of Charlotte...the Spicy Fish Filet in Flaming Pan! I probably said this before...but not only delish, this is possibly the biggest steal in Charlotte. This entree comes with generous chunks of fried fish, with at least 6-7 veggie varieties...including the exotic Lotus...and all for just $19.99!! In any American restaurant, this type of entree (plenty of fish and veggie varieties?!?) would easily be priced over $40. I need to try other items on their extensive menu, but I am so hopelessly hooked on this entree!

Ma Ma Wok, I love you for your offering of all the Chinese delicious foods, but veganized and…read moreequally delicious. As far as atmosphere, it's super casual, no cocktails, not much in the way of ambiance. Think of it as primarily for takeout, with table service. No matter! You come here for the huge portions of Chinese comfort food. Service is excellent and friendly. I could've spent a half hour with that menu, as I wanted to make sure I ordered the right things. This is the perfect place to share, as with many Chinese food that's done right and well, you order protein dishes apart from vegetable dishes. So we had Beijing veg duck, dry pot, eggplant with basil (they were out of the string beans that I really wanted to try) and shumai to start. All of it was delicious. I knew the eggplant was a bit of a risk, as so many places will serve you rubbery, bitter horrors. Not the case here! It's sweet with melt-in-your-mouth texture and I appreciated that it had other veggies mixed in with the generous portion of eggplant. The protein dishes are full of taste and texture-- no need to add seasoning to the dry pot (perhaps a little more spice but they have red pepper flakes on the table). I'd expected more of a bean curd skin/yuba for the duck, but instead it's seitan (I believe) and chewy in a good way. The shumai was tasty but too starchy and full of rice when I expected protein. Not sure I'd order that again with so many other tempting apps, including other dumplings, on the menu. If this were in my neighborhood, I'd be over the moon, because I'd finally have a viable option for good Chinese takeout. As a vegan, normally I'm regulated to the same old Buddhist's Delight. Ma Ma is such a treasure.

Searching for Chinese in Charlotte, I found that this place had an intriguing menu. They are retro…read morein the sense that there is no online ordering, so I called in. 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.

We ordered the sesame chicken, pork fried rice, and Kung Pao chicken. All were good, and we would go here again. I would definitely recommend calling in your take it order. They don't have the ability to take it on their website, and their online delivery and takeout is through doordash. The markup DoorDash is putting on the menu here is obscene. Calling in the order and picking it up the total was $50. DoorDash price for pickup was a little over $60, and DoorDash price for "free delivery" was over $70.

I ordered the sesame chicken dinner, wonton soup and an egg roll. The egg roll was soooooo small...super lint and little. I co my s from a place where one egg roll can be shared by two people. Thick and super stuffed. Forget that. It doesn't exist here. The mini egg roll was dry and you couldn't even tell what was in it. The wonton soup broth had a great flavor but the wontons were not fresh. They were gummy in a creepy kinda way. Frozen with freezer burn was my best guess. The sesame chicken was super super super OVERFRIED. Dry as a bone inside. This had clearly been pre fried and then fried again and dipped in a sticky sauce with weird texture. Kind of tasted like sesame chicken but the texture of the sauce and the dry chicken were disgusting. I spit it out. This place is a nicer version of Panda Express. If you like Panda Express .....bless your hearts than you might love this place. Those of us who have been exposed to amazing Chinese food at super cheap prices are not loving the Chinese food offerrings here in the Carolina's. Yuck

The pork lo mein, while also generally bland in the noodle and sauce department, had generous helpings of roast char siu pork that were decently flavorful. This was the only saving grace of the meal. ==The Bad== The wonton soup was lacking a bit in salt, which i understand may be a personal taste preference, but there also wasn't any particularly strong flavor from the wontons so the whole dish just felt dissatisfying. The sauce in the Mongolian beef wasn't very savory so it, too, came off a bit bland. To their credit, the cuts of beef were actually quite good and the vegetables were decent, but without a solid tasting sauce the whole thing falls a part. ==The Ugly== The teriyaki chicken skewers were just chicken with teriyaki sauce poured over them. It seems almost heretical that they didn't bbq these skewers in the sauce. This was the most disappointing part of the meal. Overall, pretty on par for restaurants that have long lost their passion for this game. If you've never had Chinese in Boston, LA or New York, you'll probably like this place. More well-traveled patrons should look elsewhere.

I have eaten here many times and I have tried virtually everything on the menu. With that said, here is my take on it. Everything that I have tried has been delicious! For cold appetizers, I am a big fan of the Black Fungus W. Vinegar Sauce, Cold Spicy Sour Cucumber and the Spicy Beef Tendon. For hot appetizers, everyone raves about the Popcorn Chicken and I concur that it's very good! I really like the Frled Pork Gyoza too. For the main course, they have some rice dishes, but the main focus is the hot pot soups. They bring out a 300°F Stone bowl of broth (in an insulated pot holder) and the ingredients to put in it. You put the meat and lettuce in first, then the other ingredients and the noodles last then wait for "10 seconds"thus the name of the restaurant. I have tried all of the broths and they are all good depending on your tastes. The original broth is the bass broth. Then they add things to the other others to differentiate them. My favorites are the Tomato Soup (especially with Beef Flank) and Spicy Soup. If you like things VERY spicy, they can bring you some cut Thai peppers. The wait staff are patient are very helpful in guiding patrons. They understand that this is a new experience for them. They also pay attention to their customers eating habits. One time when I went in, they noticed that I added lots of chili peppers and chili oil to my food. That's when she said she could bring me some very hot fresh chili peppers. Charlotte is truly blessed to have so many great authentic Chinese body shops popping up all over town! I highly recommend this place! Cheers!
