    Sweet and sour chicken
    Vincent L.

    Food is aight, there is ynot many choices in town so people overrated this place. Portion size and quality is a notch below Panda Express. Why? The breading of the chicken separated and chicken itself is bland so taste like boiled chicken with sweet and sour sauce. Egg rolls are just pink lettuces. Almost everything on the menu is under $10 so I guess I can't complain too much.

    Shrimp with veggies.
    Stephanie M.

    I decided to give Rice Fun another try a couple of months ago it did not go well. Scallops with garlic sauce no carrots. Getting home I was ready for dinner only to find out the dish was inedible. The scallops were so overcooked and dry the dish was taken back the next day. 10/8 I wanted Pork with string beans and was informed they "didn't have any beans that they are not really in season". That said ordered Shrimp with Chinese vegetables in a white sauce, Shrimp fried rice and Hot and sour soup. I let Adam know I have a gluten allergy. Getting home discovered there is an egg roll in with my Shrimp fried rice? A phone call was made about this and a conversation about cross contamination. Adam "assumed it was for someone else". The Shrimp and vegetables was ordered with white sauce light carrots. Upon opening this found a lot of broccoli and and carrots with no sauce whatsoever none. The shrimp are overcooked and hard. A second phone call was made I even offered to send a picture. The soup I didn't even bother. Not only am I hungry I get to return the food and waste more time and gas. Dinner was something I was looking forward to this was a complete fail.

    Sesame Battered Chicken with Steamed Rice and vegetables.

    This is the worst food I have ever ordered. The rice and egg roll were not packaged separately, so when condensation gathered in the plastic lid, everything that was supposed to be crispy-crunchy was limp and soggy. There was little to no sauce, the vegetables were limp like overcooked spaghetti, even the broccoli, and the food was obviously precooked and reheated in a microwave. My order was for sesame chicken. I only found two seeds on one chunk of chicken. Also, be aware that if you want vegetables with your meat and rice, you pay $1-2 per vegetable and receive very little. For example, I added mushrooms and received 3 one quarter chunks of 1 mushroom. And, of course, when I called, no one answered. Money down the drain and food in the trash. Rice Fun--fun it "ain't" and deserves no stars.

    Sesame Chicken and Hibachi Chicken

    This place stays busy with take outs and eat in customers. Service has always been great every time and they have a full staff working hard. The chicken wings are great and my personal favorite is the Sesame Chicken.

    The staff is friendly and helpful when ordering. Not fancy by any means. But...the food is great!…read moreLarge portions that are delicious. We had beef and broccoli with tons of both broccoli and beef with a side of fried rice included. The next table ordered just the fried rice as an entree. It tasted great. Wonderful egg rolls, pork, shrimp or veggie. Then there is the Mongolian beef, hot hot hot. You can remove the fiery chilies to moderate the fire. Great taste with lots of beef. It comes with white rice. They even have sweet tea for a little Southern charm. Bottled soft drinks. The lunch menu is extensive. The regular menu is hugh. ENJOY!

    **First off- I dislike the food at JinJin in Locust- this is NOT the same place: has a different,…read morebetter menu.** Chinese food- especially soup- is comfort food to me. Even American-style Chinese food (ACF). This place was a strong win for ACF for us- including great food portion size, quality, price & all. Got a summer cold & wanted soup within reasonable driving distance. (The places closest to us are unappetizing or grossly unclean- not this place!) Chose this location for its variety of soups & fuller menu. Order was: an egg drop wonton soup (soothing and filling) a hot and sour soup (quality ingredients) crab rangoon (wonton cream cheese crisps with sizeable side of dipping sauce) and a truly EXCELLENT spicy sweet orange beef. ***Healthy portion sizes for the price*** Spouse commented that the entree was almost all beef with a little broccoli & that the beef was not "weird"- that's high praise. I could see red chili pepper slivers & orange peel along with the minimal broccoli. Nice flavors. Ambiance: Was not the one who picked up the meal but heard it was more of a to-go rather than sit down place. Service: Very friendly in-store service & ordering over the phone was easy, quick. I value an easy phone call over using an app to order when pics of food are not available online. Note: we took no pics bc we were just that hungry. But I will take pics next time for y'all. And there will be a next time...just less soup!

    It all started with missing white rice…read more I had been working all day and hadn't consumed Chinese food in about a year. I love Chinese food but I have been paying off debt like Al Capone wanted his loan-shark money back, which led to me going from 27.3k to currently 1.8k on my Discover within a year. This background is to let you know why I haven't been eating a lot of Chinese food. It has nothing to do with sodium. But this is about wonton soup, sesame chicken, lo mein, white rice, and a drunk guy (not me). All of the food items listed above were solid. And they are always solid across the board. I wouldn't put this restaurant as #1 for any of those individual items in Lake Norman but I do put them #1 for all food as a whole. In other words, Jin Jin has the best wonton soup but you only get four wontons and they aren't as good at other stuff, and it just doesn't seem as clean--Huang's Chef is impeccably clean. Huang's China Bistro in Cornelius has the best sesame chicken but their lo mein and wonton soup aren't quite as good (still very good though). Lotus on River Hwy (Rt 150) has the best lo mein but not quite as good on the other stuff (but still very good). Huang's Chef (Mooresville) is a solid 9.0 across the board so it's where I order most. But the time prior to this one, I drove all the way to Huntersville and they forgot my white rice. This isn't a major issue but it kind of does ruin the experience after spending $30 for one person on dinner. Fortunately, they gave me a free pint of wonton soup the next time I went in. I was so excited to eat their food again that I ordered when driving by and had to wait. While outside and thinking I was alone on the strip-mall sidewalk, I practiced pronouncing "Huang's Chef." In order to do it, you need to inhale 5% on the "Huah" sound and exhale 95% on the "Wang" sound. I was getting good at it and repeating, "Huah-Wang's Chef ... Huah-Wang's Chef" while pacing, but a dude from from Marty's Bar popped out to smoke a cigarette and looked at me funny. "Just practicing," I said while nodding to indicate all was normal. "For what?" he laughed. I could tell he was one of those friendly drunk guys. "Huah-Wang's Chef." He walked over to cut the distance between us in half and laughed while taking a drag of his cigarette. Tall and skinny guy mid-60s with scruff and loose clothes that fit his personality. "Huah-Wong's Chef," he said. "No," I corrected. "It's Wang." "No it ain't," he cackled. "It's Wong." "That would be the Cantonese version. That's not correct." "I don't eat cantaloupes." He just started cracked up at his own joke, which wasn't funny, but then funny because of how much he enjoyed it. Then he continued, "What if we just put it together and start our own Chinese restaurant called Wang-Wong!" Bar guys always talk about things like this but know they will never follow through, and I didn't want to start a Wang-Wong Chinese restaurant with a scruffy-looking drunk guy. I had the perfect out anyway because Huang's Chef told me 15 minutes and it was about that time. "Good to meet you, but I have to go get my food now at Huah-WANG'S Chef." "Wong!" he cackled again as I walked away. Anyway, I definitely recommend Huang's Chef. It's a good price with solid portions and quality taste across the board. The restaurant itself is one of the cleanest Chinese restaurants I have ever seen, which is always a good sign. Definitely recommended.

    I requested an upgrade in my order and they were not willing to do it, 1/10. Food is average, 5/10…read more The ambiance shows they lost the quality they had on the past, 5/10. Total score: 3/10. Now, my go-to Chinese food is a different one.

    You know, I'm sitting here at midnight after watching The Crooked Man from the SyFy network…read more(enjoying these low-budget movies because actors put heart and soul into it whether good movie or not and because concepts are sometimes cool) and was thinking about Lotus. To Clarify, Lotus wasn't a character in the movie and was actually the name of the Chinese restaurant. And if there was a Lotus in the movie, I wouldn't be thinking about Lotus--unless he/she was unique and had an interesting viewpoint on life with good intentions but also loved to be bad and was sometimes misunderstood. For The Crooked Man, I gave it a 7.2 but that's on a scale for the SyFy channel--and I gave Lotus a 4.0--which would make it an eight on a 10-point scale. Therefore, the Chinese food was slightly better than the movie. 8.0 is greater than 7.2. For the Chinese food, I liked my son's meal better than my own, but both were good. I got the Scallion Chicken, which I have never had anywhere. The waiter was kind and attentive but he really wanted me to have the Scallion Chicken. I tried to move to General Tso's and explained it was my first time there and should probably go with something I know. He said, "Yes! Most people order Scallion Chicken." Alrighty then. Scallion Chicken it is! What I should have ordered was the Roast Pork Lo Mein, which was very good. But if I did that and we both had Roast Pork Lo Mein, we would only know about the Roast Pork Lo Mein and not about the Scallion Chicken, which could have been General Tso's. We both asked for no vegetables in the Fried Rice but he said it would cost extra because it was already made. So, we just stuck with whatever was in there--eggs and ... scallions. I also ordered Wonton Soup but I just realized that it never arrived, which is the biggest negative because I love Wonton Soup. If someone called me tomorrow and offered me a job to travel across the country rating Wonton Soup, I would take it. It would be a Vlog titled: Man With Spoon. Another odd thing was when they refill your water, they take your glass and come back with it. Scallion Chicken isn't too spicy but it's nice to have water. It's weird when they take it away. You're probably wondering how this was a 4. Good question. But the food was good, the service was friendly (counts the most for me), and the prices were fair. And it was a comfortable dining area. But most importantly, it was fun to have lunch with my son, and the miscommunications and interesting approaches to service felt adventurous to me. If someone were rude, that's a whole different thing, but everyone was friendly, so I'm good with it. I will also stop in one day for a Wonton Soup.

    Came here with 4 other people on a Sunday evening. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. Nice…read moreand quiet little place that wasn't busy at all. We ordered krab rangoon and chicken teriyaki sticks for appetizers which were both fantastic. Their krab rangoon had a LOT of cream cheese. Most places skimp out and you get mostly just fried wonton with no filling. The teriyaki chicken was crispy and juicy. For entrees we got shrimp mei fun which was good, but a bit salty. We got the crispy scallion chicken which was flavorful, crispy and saucy. We also had the crispy orange beef which I wish was a bit crispier and less saucy, I think too much sauce made it soggy, but had a nice orange flavor and wasn't super spicy. We also had the beef with ginger and oyster sauce which was also salty, but the beef was tender. Last but not least we had shrimp lo mein, which tasted like your standard lo mein. Nice amount of shrimp and even took home leftovers as it was a large portion. A few of us would've loved to upgrade to pork fried rice with our meals instead of the standard white rice, but a $3 upcharge seemed a bit steep. 3 dishes came with soup, and they also give you duck sauce and crispy wontons for the table when first seated. The wontons were oily and tasted a bit stale. With 2 appetizers, 4 entrees and 2 soft drinks our total came to around $110 which isn't too bad. Around $20 a person. I wouldn't say I'm dying to come back to this restaurant, but if you need a Chinese food fix, this is a good place to go.
