Jackrabbit Filly's is great! The ambience of the restaurant is 10/10 - low lighting, very cozy. Seems like an amazing spot to get dinner, just a drink, or a nice lunch. I came with a couple friends and I got the peanut noodles with added pork - SUPER GOOD. The price was pretty on par, and the service was great. I hope to come by again! read more

This is my second time at Jack Ribbit Philly, but the first time at their new location. I am not from the area, but when I am in town visiting family, I like to venture around and try new restaurants. My sister comes here almost all the time and gets that exact bowl that I ordered and she told me to order it and it was absolutely amazing. The dumplings were also exceptional. The dipping sauce that they had with them was very good.. I cannot remember what the drinks were called that I had but I had one that was made and then I had one of their frozen drinks and it wasn't too sweet. It wasn't one of those gross ones that you usually come across it was actually a good cocktail.. One of the bartenders was a little aloof we kind of sat there quite a while, waiting for him to refill our empty drinks for about 25 minutes, but other than that, everything was great and if you get a chance, check out the bathrooms, they are wild... in a good way. I would give this place 5 stars, but I'm giving it 4 because the bartender was not attentive. read more

Not bad. I like places like this with lowkey casual vibes and a unique menu built for sharing. My husband and I sat at the bar for dinner. We ordered the following: pierogi, fried rice and Sichuan hot karaage (fried chicken). Being a Polish girl, I can confirm these are not authentic pierogi and they tasted more like a dumpling/ravioli to me, however they were still delicious and I would order them again! The chicken was fried nicely and had a good level of spice, which I appreciated. The rice was pretty good for the most part but also tasted like something was missing. I would definitely come back here again to try other things off the menu :) read more

The scallion pancakes were crispy and well stuffed with scallions and sprinkled with sesame seeds. It was delicious. A little on the salty side for me but the sauce was a little on the sweet side so they balanced each other out. The shrimp dumplings was packed with chopped shrimp was also tasty. I finally found scallion pancakes in Charleston.!!! read more

Asian food traditionalists will think I'm blasphemous for saying this, but I liked the food at Jackrabbit 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. read more

This one has been in my Yelp Collection Bucket List for a while. Finally got here in a Thursday for lunch. Parking was tough but I found a spot maybe 2-3 minute walk away. Not bad. Walked in and was greeted immediately by the Hostess. She was so flippin friendly. Sat at a booth at the bar. Server was there quickly and friendly. They have a team approach to the table service. So it was excellent. Started with the pork dumplings 5/5 Got a combo meal so it came with Egg Roll 4/5 Miso Soup 3/5 - it was barely warm but tasty Sichuan Hot Karaage-Don 10/5 excellent!! Highly recommend read more

As out of town guests from Florida who happen to enjoy Asian-forward food, we were excited to try Jackrabbit Filly, especially since learning about the Top Chef finalist, co-owner and excutive chef, Shuai Wang. We perused the website, menu, reviews, etc. before arriving for our reservation with our party of 4. We were seated and the service was very decent. Our server explained the concept, etc. Our party ordered about 7 dishes in total. Personally, I'm not a fan of dishes coming out one at a time as they are prepared. I felt like we waited a long time between the dishes. This may have been because the restaurant was packed and busy. In fact, it was so busy, and music was playing, which made it hard for me to hear the people speaking at our own table. If you're interested in enjoying good conversation, maybe come at a less busy time, like when the restaurant first opens. We ordered the "world famous" corn bread which was delivered in a cast iron skillet and is definitely worth ordering. Very good! We also ordered the Sichuan Hot Karaage, pork dumplings, sinigang greens, vegetable stir fry, fried rice and dan dan noodles. Our favorites were the cornbread and pork dumplings. The dan dan noodles were tasty too. In our opinion, the fried rice was super oily, the sinigang greens dish was overwhelmed by the fish sauce and was not a very balanced dish. In addition, the greens were not as tender as we would have liked, nor were they cut....basically whole leaves which gave us such a chewy mouth feel. Mocktails were refreshing. We ordered the "I'm chill. I'm chill as a cucumber" which was a house made salted cucumber and lime soda. Overall, the experience was interesting but there was nothing that would make me want to return. I feel like I can check that experience off my list. read more

This is a difficult review to write.. while I've wanted to try Jackrabbit Filly for a long long time.. sadly it fell flat for me. The vibe ambiance and service here are all above par. Staff were great The vibe was electric and the decor intimate & cozy but casual. However, my four star rating is based on the dishes... They just didn't do it for me.. I felt that they all had the same seasoning.. the vermicelli was different in that it had an aroma of gas... weird. The tempura mushrooms.. felt like the dregs from the fryer... no mushrooms.. The chicken portions in the Karaage was just too big. We also had a Tiger Salad which had such a bitter acidic flavor Maybe it's me... maybe that's how the dishes were supposed to be.. it just didn't do it for me... a shame. read more

My friends and I enjoyed a tasty dinner here on a bustling Saturday night. For a group of 4, the waiter recommended 6-8 dishes which was just the right amount. We started with the Vaya Con Dios frozies, which was dangerously tasty and reminiscent of an Asian twist on a pina colada. We ordered the corn bread, which was a great mix between southern style corn bread with spring onion butter, gouda, and honey. The size was slightly larger than an Eggo waffle and was a good portion between 4 people. The karaage was also tasty, with huge chicken portions and a sauce that included lemon mayonnaise and a tasty soy-sauce mix. Not to be outdone, the pork dumplings were a delicious mix of potato, leek, brown butter, and yuzu, and the market veggies were a bit tangy with dill, mint, and more. The fried rice and bucatini were yummy carb additions as well. This place is on the slightly nicer side with a gorgeous interior ambiance, and as a bonus had plenty of vegetarian dishes as well. I would recommend this place to folks in Charleston looking for a unique fusion meal. read more

The good: The food was amazing! It was easy to order. No one rushed us to leave when we were talking after. The Bad: The waitress never checked on us. We didn't get one of the items we ordered and had to track down someone to tell them. The ambiance is just confusing. It is not super Asian. It is not super not Asian. It isn't bad, but it also isn't impressive. read more

How have I not eaten at JF before?! I feel like I have been missing out. I visited on a Saturday for 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!! read more

One of the most amazing restaurants in all of Charleston! Unbelievably good food and wonderful ambiance, and all the servers are incredibly friendly and professional! Very LGBTQ+ friendly as well and have regular pride events during June. I couldn't recommend a restaurant more read more

Decided to finally check out the much raved jackrabbit filly for my fiancés belated birthday dinner after hearing so many people recommend the place! Although the ambiance and food itself was good, we were seated by a VERY loud party of over 8 people making it very hard for me to listen to my fiancé and I's conversation. Coming from a very Asian dense neighborhood in Boston, I found myself saying I had enjoyed more the food from back home at hole in the wall mom and pop restaurants than my dining experience here. Definitely worth checking out but I don't find myself coming back. The drinks and the cornbread are definitely worth ordering! read more

Was really excited to try Jackrabbit Filly since there's a similar spot in Austin that became one of our favorites. With that being said, this wasn't my favorite experience. Garlicky Cucumbers: Just okay, but I wouldn't order them again. A miss for me. Beef Dumplings: Best thing we had, would honestly go back just for these. Shrimp Wonton Soup: The dumplings were solid, but the broth leaned too vinegar-forward for my taste. Shepherd's Pie: Good flavor, but zero pork. It was basically greens... and more greens. Sichuan Hot Karaage: Great portion size and interesting flavor. The sauce all pooled at the bottom instead of being tossed, but I'd still order this again. read more

We were visiting from out of town but kept seeing Jackrabbit Filly as a recommendation and decided to check it out. Highly recommend reservations (we were able to get day of for 5:45). They have a 1.5 hour limit. We went for dinner and got there early to see if we could be seated early (we were already in the area). They said they would have to see and had us wait (which since we were early- I understood- but the dining areas were empty). Waiter was kind. Recommended sharing 3-4 plates for 2 people. We got: Food -Garlicky Cucumbers -Karage -Pork Dumpling -Pineapple fried rice -and had some leftovers from the pineapple fried rice. Our favorites were the cucumbers and karage. Other contenders were the potato and leek dumplings, gnocchi, and veggies Drinks -It's a Party (espresso martini) very smooth and good -As If (nonalcholic) you're typical digestive bitters drink I enjoyed the small plates style experience. Came out to a little over $50/per person read more

My son and his girlfriend moved to Charleston and this was high on my list of places to go on my first visit after watching Top Chef! The atmosphere was great and everyone was super friendly! We started with espresso martinis and they were delicious. Our waitress walked us through the menu, which was very helpful. Our favorites were shrimp wontons, karaage chicken and the pork dumplings. We really liked everything we tried though, so I don't think you can go wrong! As an added bonus, we saw Shuai Wang! I was so excited and asked if he would take a picture with me. He was one of the friendliest people I have ever met! He chatted with us for a bit and told my son about all the other restaurants we should try. read more

Another excellent meal from jackrabbit filly! This was our first time in their new spot, and it is so spacious and beautiful. But their food is still to die for, like always! We were seated immediately and our waiter walked us through the menu. They always have fun cocktails and a great beer/wine list. My husband ordered the let's get tropical cocktail and it was so delicious. We ordered 6 food items to share between 3 of us and they were all excellent! The corn fritters were the dark horse in our spread as it was almost an afterthought but holy cow they were *chefs kiss.* perfectly buttery and salty and was a nice "side item" to order. The crispy potatoes were great with the oyster sauce, and the dumplings and pierogis were perfection. The karaage chicken is always a must, and the cold peanut noodles were excellent too! They had a subtle heat to them but the peanut sauce balance it out well. Honestly, every item that came out was my favorite until the next plate came out. One of the best restaurants in the charleston area! read more

If you have not been for lunch, go! Jackrabbit Filly has flavor packed Karaage (multiple flavors) bowls, chirashi (fish, like deconstructed sushi) bowls, and more. Make sure to make it a combo that adds the veggie roll and soup of the day. Today's was onion, garlic miso soup and it hit the spot! It sold me on always making it a combo as I would hate to miss out in the goodies in the future. If you're just getting off work, JF offers Golden Hour full of small bites and delicious cocktails to hold you over till dinner. My favorite dinner items are any rotating special, tuna tartare with Texas toast, karaage, dumplings, and the seasonal fried rice. There are 3 main seating areas. The private back seating area great for large parties. The front dining room where you can see the gorgeous lantern displays. Last, the bar and high top booth sections. I personally like the bar area for something more casual and the others for more intimate or fancier nights out. Per usual, JF hires the best staff! Kind, fun style, and genuinely kind people. read more

I have been waiting for about 2 years for this one. I remember when they were on Spruil Avenue and I made a couple of attempts, but it was impossible without a reservation. So this time when I made reservation, I did not understand why the GPS was giving me these directions, and that is when I found out they moved that is so cool. Theres alot more space.Also the place was jam packed as usual.It's like this every time I had passed by.First of all, most of the things that I wanted on the yelp pictures, they don't even have on the menu anymore.I was so angry at that. We got tables all the way in the back.We ordered the kimchi appetizers with three different flavors and dumplings to start off with. Thr apple kimcho was the best. It taste smoked and vinegar. You find out all the things you want to order, and then they bring everything out one at a time.But it was kinda weird because they bring all the side items out first.Which leaves you with any kind of entrees you may have ordered.. Everything is so extra garlicky, it's like they're trying to kill vampires or something. The potato dumplings and shrimp dumplings were pretty good.Definitely original. The 2 kinds of chicken they sell were excellent. The sauces were incredible. I can definitely see me ordering those again that rice with the spices on top was also very good. Very, very moist.We enjoy those three things most. The noodles with the nuts on top were pretty good. It went very well with the chicken. But like I said, everything was loaded with garlic,I'm sorry after so much garlic.It kind of kills your taste buds for the night. The food was good. But a bit overrated in my opinion. Maybe I was expecting more.Easy to be disappointed when you do that. I love the new spot, it has way more room. NICE BATHROOMS. Lol. I was full for three days. Definitely @ least a 4 star experience. I will go 3 stars for lack of a menu. Because the menu doesn't have much choices, might be better to start out with the entrees. read more

We heard about this place from some friends and had to check it out when we were back in town; and I'm so glad we did! We booked our reservations as soon as they were available and were promptly seated upon arrival. Our server quickly greeted us and was attentive throughout the meal. The inside is Asian inspired with wood touches and a loud atmosphere. It makes you feel like you're at a family function enjoying dinner with friends. Their menu is served family style for all their items and since it was 6 of us; we tried a lot of them. I won't go through each one but my favorite items were: Both chicken Karaages. The original is more lemon forward and the hot isn't too spicy but lets the heat notes come through. The sauces on both were amazing. Pineapple Fried Rice. Truly flavorful and well worth the hype. The pineapple with the shrimp and ham bits married well together and was a table favorite. Crunchy Salad. This is my new favorite salad in the area. Overall, all the food was great and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I will for sure be back to try it again soon! read more

Yes! The karaage chicken is awesome. I would say that there is a little too much liquid with the rice. Especially with the soft egg juice added. But the taste was spot on. Make sure to get a side of chili crunch. Not that hot but addictive. Cheers read more

I walked into Jackrabbit Filly honestly not knowing it was Chinese fusion. Normally that would've been a pass for me. Growing up, I ate a lot of Chinese food, so when I travel I usually try to go in a completely different direction. I just wasn't in the mood for something that felt familiar or repetitive. This ended up being the complete opposite of what I expected. There's something different about how they approach the food here. It's not trying too hard to reinvent anything, but it also doesn't feel like standard Chinese takeout or even typical restaurant versions. It felt like they took the foundation I'm used to and just elevated or deviated it in a way that made me actually pay attention to each dish. The tempura mushrooms were the first thing that hit. Super crispy, light, and packed with flavor without feeling greasy. Seriously, i dont recall seeing greasy fingers! I didn't expect mushrooms to be one of the highlights, but they absolutely were. The pork dumplings were solid and did exactly what they needed to do. Good texture, good flavor, nothing overly complicated. Then the Sichuan Hot Karaage came out and that's where things shifted a bit. It's basically fried chicken, but with a real Sichuan style heat that actually comes through. Not just spicy for the sake of it, but layered with flavor. You can tell they put thought into balancing it instead of just throwing heat on top. The garlic fried rice was the dish that surprised me the most. Fried rice is something I've had countless times growing up, so I wasn't expecting much. Somehow, it ended up being my favorite. It had that deep garlic flavor without being overpowering, and everything about it just worked. It's one of those dishes you keep going back to without even thinking about it. Overall, this was one of those meals where I came in with low expectations and left actually impressed. It didn't try to be something completely different, but it didn't settle for being ordinary either. It made familiar food feel worth ordering again. read more

Hands down my favorite restaurant in Charleston! Always love trying new menu items but the dumplings and pierogis are a must order every time. We love sitting at the bar for the best vibes. Edson is a delight and always makes us feel right at home. Shuai is curating absolute magic in his kitchens. I'm constantly blown away by his ability to mix flavors and create unique and memorable dishes. Seriously cannot recommend enough! read more

Excellent customer service, a great atmosphere and exceptional and delicious food. I had the Japanese fried chicken which was more than I expected in flavor and quantity. It was simply scrumptious and a must try with its mildly spicy and rich sauce. My wife got a vegan dish, which also had a somewhat spicy sauce that I mixed with the chicken which made it even better!

Jackrabbit Filly - Chinese Near Me - North Charleston, South Carolina

We recently went to dinner Jackrabbit Filly and, food-wise, it truly delivered. We had the tuna tartare, bread service, pork wontons, karaage chicken, Sichuan potatoes, corn fritters, and charred cabbage -- and everything was thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. The tuna tartar and karaage chicken were especially standout dishes, and the corn fritters were amazing. However, the service left a lot to be desired -- and that matters just as much as the food, especially when allergies are involved. My son has a severe tree nut allergy, and when we asked our server what nuts were in the carrot dish (since he can have peanuts), she didn't know. She then said "tree nuts," but when pressed for specifics, she listed pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, which aren't nuts at all. That level of confusion is unacceptable when someone's life could be on the line. The menu simply marks dishes with an "N" for nuts, which is far too vague for diners with allergies. It needs to specify what kind of nut, not just toss a blanket label on it. To make matters worse, the server seemed visibly annoyed that we were asking. That kind of attitude is unacceptable in any restaurant, let alone one with a strong reputation. On top of that, the place is extremely loud to the point where conversation was difficult. In short: the food is creative and delicious, but the service and allergy awareness need serious improvement. Until they handle that more responsibly, it's hard to recommend for anyone with dietary restrictions or food allergies. read more

Was able to snag a reservation for a Friday evening at 6pm for two. Two hostesses were extremely welcoming when we walked in and sat us immediately (15 min early). Waiter was attentive and recommended a variety of options from the menu. We chose the salad, chicken, gnocchi, bao, and pork dumplings. The Bao was out of this world. Would come back specifically for those. Also the crispy salad I kept coming back for. So good. The chicken was excellent, and the dumplings were very good. The only item that was a little off putting was the gnocchi- the "government cheese" was comical but not sure how it played into the dish. It was my least favorite but was still good! The noice level was a bit high but overall an amazing experience. Will return!!!! read more

Jackrabbit Filly - King Lao vegetables and sichuan hot karaage - Chinese Near Me - North Charleston, South Carolina

If I am being 100% honest, this restaurant was a massive letdown from the hype it received. I came in with pretty high expectations and left quite disappointed. We ordered several meals, and almost every item was bad. We first started with their spicy Korean pierogis. The pierogies themselves tasted frozen and a little tough, and covering it in gochujang just felt off. The dish does actually meld together well, and I think it would be a pretty big improvement if the pierogies themselves were filled with something else to giveit more of a Korean flare. Maybe some radish or bean sprouts or a mild kimchi. We then got the chirashi bowl. The ball itself was kind of a mess and once again, did not seem to go together that well. Flavor wise was OK, but proportions were also off. The veggie egg roll is decent but very small. Pretty crispy and comes with a sweet-and-sour sauce. The filling is pretty empty. I would suggest that it is actually filled normally and potentially 50% bigger for the price being charged. The carrot coconut soup was just bad. Coconut flavor is almost indistinguishable. If they had added something a little acidic and spicy to the soup, that would've also elevated it. Suggestions would be a little bit of fish sauce and some chili flakes. Last, we got the chicken kaarage don. This was probably the least enjoyable of the dishes. The breading on the chicken was very soft instead of crunchy, the meet itself was pretty tough and chewy, and the flavor left a lot to be desired. It was also disproportionally overshadowed by a lot of rice. The rice as well was a little stale and hard. On a different note, parking is pretty difficult. All of the free street parking is full for several blocks around meal times. I had to find parking on a side street a few blocks away in an adjacent neighborhood. As much as I was looking forward to enjoying this restaurant, I can't give this a higher rating. Again, staff were friendly and the design of the restaurant is really nice. But unfortunately, food is most important and was the biggest letdown. read more
