Pork Egg Roll
Samantha B.

First time trying here. I walk by the dinky exterior all the time, but I know some of the best food comes from places that don't always look too promising. Paid $13 and some change for small beef lo mein, a pork egg roll, and a bottle of Diet Coke + tip (already included). The beef lo mein is edible, noodles and veggies are good but did not trust the beef. Pork egg roll one of the worst egg rolls I've ever had. Severely undercooked and soft inside and out. Staff very nice and friendly and my order was done really quick despite not ordering ahead!

Chicken & Broccoli w/ Steamed White Rice

Walking through the front door you will be met with quite a dirty establishment. I walked in to a bag of trash on the first table I saw. Dirty floors, walls, ceilings, tables. The menu board looks outdated and hard to navigate. The lady that took my order was cold and un-friendly, bordering on rude. Her hands and fingernails were visibly very dirty which was disconcerting given she was directly packaging food/steamed rice and in contact with outgoing orders. One good thing is the food came out in about 60 seconds, piping hot. How they managed to make chicken and broccoli that fast is beyond me; but good on them! The chicken was moist, but incredibly oily. It was salted correctly but as for flavor... lacking. No garlic, onion, and no extra flavor. Nothing at all to get excited about. It was sopping with oil. It also seemed to have been colored with a red hue. Obviously intentional, but unable to tell if it is just red food coloring or what. The sauce was really more oil than sauce. The ONLY flavor/ingredient detectable was soy sauce. I am not sure how others have said this is the best Chinese they've ever had. It saddens me to hear that. Save your money and keep hunting the Charleston area. I contemplated on leaving a review. The last thing I want to do is hurt a business. But I also didn't find any of these important descriptors that would've been helpful to my decision on coming here.

Hot Mustard on Meeting Street in Charleston is a good place to go for all things Chinese food that is fresh and delicious. I have been coming here for a long time and they have been reliable for good food at a good value. The staff here is very friendly and works hard to make sure that everything is right and is prepared well.

Fried Rice

Worst Chinese food I have ever ate. Fried rice is trash and my lo mien was half lettuce.

We discovered this restaurant thanks to our amazing walking tour guide…read more The restaurant has a unique vibe in that it's located in the same building as the Pour House. You can always grab a bite here and then head next door for some live jazz! That being said, the food was phenomenal. Everything is unapologetically spicy, so be prepared! We had the biang biang noodles, the lamb dumplings, Dan Dan noodles, and the fried green beans. Everything was delicious but my favorite were the Biang Biang noodles. Honestly wish I had discovered this spot a day earlier as there were probably 6 other items that I wanted to try! lol I'd highly recommend it if you're in town.

This restaurant is a masterclass in balance. While the spice level is impressive, it never masks…read morethe deep umami and sweetness of the dishes. The ambiance is very charming, making it a great spot for a casual yet elevated dinner. The Drink: We tried the traditional infused Baijiu for the first time. It's a concentrated liquor that packs a serious punch! It's served in a vessel smaller than a shot glass and meant to be sipped. One of the staff members shared the history and craft behind it, which made the experience feel like a genuine cultural exchange The Food: The Hot and Sour Mushrooms are the unsung heroes of the menu. They were earthy, tangy, and the perfect palate cleanser between bites of the fiery Cumin Lamb Noodles. Can't wait to go back and try other menu items!
