Where to eat Chinese food in Charleston.

Chef Loong's homepage and operator-linked Chowbus menu match the Savannah Highway Unit 105 branch. The menu separates four soup-dumpling variants, HK-style shumai and prawn hargow, with a named vegetable dumpling and an explicitly Taiwanese-flavour chicken dish.

Build an order. Consider D1 Pork Soup Dumplings(5) $10.50, D2 Chicken Soup Dumplings (5) $10.50, D6 Hk Style Shumai (3) $9.00 and D7 Prawn Hargow (4) $9.00. D3 Pork Tamota Soup Dumplings (5) $12.00 has an explicit pork-and-tomato-broth description. D4 Truffle Pork Soup Dumplings (5) $15.50 has a separate pork-and-black-truffle-broth description. The tomato and truffle variants stay outside the plain pork/chicken comparison. D7's description explicitly says near clear wheat starch dumpling filled with a big shrimp. D10 Vegetable Dumplings (5) V $10.50 names mustard greens, mushrooms and rice noodles. P8 Three Cups Chicken $18.00+ explicitly says Taiwanese Flavor with garlic, ginger and fresh basil; V2 Sauteed Shanghai Bok Choy V $17.00+ is another option. D8 Pan Seared Pork Dumplings (5) $9.50 is not relabelled as soup dumplings.

Before you go. The operator posts Mon and Wed 5-9 PM; Tue closed; Thu-Sat 11:30 AM-2 PM and 5-9 PM; Sun 11:30 AM-2 PM and 4-8 PM. Chowbus starts evening ordering 30 minutes earlier and showed Closed with scheduled Pickup and a Delivery/Pickup service selector during this morning read. Confirm service and dietary preparation; do not treat the menu as current stock.

Dishes to know. Soup dumplings, Siu mai

Delivery: direct The matching operator-linked Chowbus merchant exposes Choose Service with Delivery and Pickup for 1662 Savannah Highway ste 105. This records advertised service, not a currently accepted order: the store showed Closed and scheduled pickup during the fetch. No delivery address, fee, radius or courier identity was verified; confirm current service by phone.

Kwei Fei explicitly describes Sichuan cooking at its Maybank Highway address. Its embedded Fall 2026 menu also names Beijing pork-belly noodles and a limited-availability Yunnan-style grilled fish; those literal names are retained without a claim about regional authenticity or current availability.

Build an order. Consider BEIJING PORK BELLY NOODLES $21.00 from the main Fall menu, described with Zha Jiang, sweet bean paste, braised pork belly, cucumber, carrot, radish and alkaline noodle. VEGGIE DUMPLINGS $11.00 lists mushroom, eggplant, cabbage and cilantro and is marked vegan. DRY FRIED GREEN BEANS $9.00 is also marked vegan. MAPO TOFU $19.00 has a separately printed ground-pork add-on; confirm the intended preparation.

Before you go. The operator lists Tue-Thu 5-9 PM and Fri-Sat 5-10 PM; Monday and Sunday are closed. Its separate Wimps menu prints a longer Beijing-noodle title at $19 rather than the main menu's $21, so ask which preparation and menu applies. The homepage lists a 3% non-cash charge while the posted menu calls it a 3% service fee on all checks. Resy was read publicly; no booking was made.

Delivery: direct The exact-branch operator homepage explicitly advertises ORDER TAKEOUT/DELIVERY and Dinner Dine-in, Takeout & Delivery, linking its own Toast route. This records advertised service only; the route was not opened after other merchant Toast routes returned challenges. Current acceptance, address eligibility, fees and courier identity are unverified. Confirm with the operator through its website; its fetched pages do not publish a phone.

Beautiful South's operator describes Cantonese traditions at Columbus Street. Its own posted food menu names House Smoked Char Siu as Cantonese-style roast pork and Shanghai-style shumai as sticky-rice dumplings, with separately labelled vegan vegetable and noodle choices.

Build an order. Consider HOUSE SMOKED CHAR SIU $11.00 with SHANGHAI-STYLE SHUMAI $13.00 and SHANGHAI BABY BOK CHOY $11.00. The shumai description is exactly handmade shiitake, bamboo shoot, sticky rice dumplings and is marked vegan; this sticky-rice variant is outside the plain steamed siu-mai comparison, and its title states no count. SCALLION OIL NOODLE $11.00 is also marked vegan. The posted menu says it cannot make modifications; ask which allergy-friendly options fit.

Before you go. The operator lists Sun-Thu 11 AM-2 PM and 5-9 PM, Fri-Sat 11 AM-2 PM and 5-10 PM; weekday happy hour is 4-6 PM. Its own roast-duck page requires at least 24 hours notice and says ducks are not available for lunch; duck is not this meal's availability anchor. The linked Resy page freshly confirms 29403, while the blocked old Toast URL contains 29405. No reservation or order was made.

Delivery: direct The exact-branch operator service page explicitly advertises TAKEOUT & Delivery and links its own Toast route. This records advertised service only; the linked route returned 403 and was stopped. No current delivery acceptance, fee, radius, address eligibility or courier identity was verified. Confirm current arrangements by phone.

Xo Brasserie's operator identifies Cantonese and Sichuan cuisine at Morrison Drive. Its current dinner menu also literally names Xinjiang Lollipop and describes Australian lamb chops with seasonal vegetables and curry sauce, alongside a separate house-made dumpling section.

Build an order. Consider Xinjiang Lollipop* $44.00, described as Australian Lamb Chops, Seasonal Vegetable, Curry Sauce, with Vegetable Dumpling (5) $14.00 and Garlic Green Beans $14.00. The vegetable dumpling names napa, shiitake, carrot, scallions and sweet soy. Steak Chow Fun $36.00 is another named noodle meal. Confirm sauces and preparation; a vegetable name is not a guarantee about every ingredient.

Before you go. The operator lists Tuesday-Sunday 5-9 PM, Monday closed, and explicitly says takeout orders are available by phone. It warns that dumplings are prepared ahead and dietary changes may not be possible, and that shellfish shares frying oil. Its dinner menu calls roast duck limited availability and two fish items MP; none is substituted for the selected fixed-price lamb meal.

No delivery listed No delivery service is listed on the fetched operator homepage or dinner menu as of 2026-10-09; the menu explicitly says takeout orders are available by phone. Takeout alone does not establish pickup-only or a delivery route. Please confirm by phone.

China Fun's operator identifies Ashley Town Center Drive #101 and links its exact ChowNow merchant. The priced menu separates Singapore Chow Mei Fun, Hunan entrees, ordinary fried-or-steamed dumplings and a generic Dim Sum entry whose specific format is not described.

Build an order. Consider 40. Singapore Chow Mei Fun $13.75, with 17. Fried or Steamed Dumpling (8) $8.75 and 104. Moo Shu Vegetable $12.35. The moo-shu entry separately describes six pancakes; that description is not a dumpling piece count. 22. Dim Sum (6) $8.95 gives a count but no siu-mai, har-gow or soup-dumpling identity, so it stays a held format receipt.

Before you go. The homepage lists Mon-Wed 11 AM-10:30 PM, Thu 11 AM-11:30 PM, Fri-Sat 11 AM-11 PM and Sun literally 12:00 AM-10 PM. Confirm the apparent Sunday time issue rather than assuming noon. The linked ChowNow menu suggested scheduled pickup at 11:15 AM, 15 minutes after the homepage's Friday opening; the Start Order prompt was left untouched.

Delivery: direct The exact-branch operator advertises Pickup & Delivery and links its ChowNow merchant for both. The fresh public merchant menu also displays Pickup and Delivery, while suggesting scheduled pickup at 11:15 AM. This records advertised service; no Start Order, delivery address, fee, radius or current acceptance was verified. Confirm current terms by phone.

This is an explicitly neighboring North Charleston pick at the operator's current East Montague address. Jackrabbit Filly calls its food heritage-driven New Chinese American cuisine; its posted lunch menu includes chicken shumai and vegetarian-labelled peanut noodles, distinct from the separately posted dinner menu.

Build an order. For lunch, consider CHICKEN SHUMAI $7.00 with PEANUT NOODLES $16.00, described with local greens, scallion, spicy fried-peanut chili-crisp sauce and egg noodles and marked vegetarian. STEAMED PORK DUMPLINGS $7.00 is another lunch choice. STEAMED SHRIMP DUMPLINGS $6.00 states neither count nor har-gow/crystal-wrapper identity and is held from the har-gow index. No unprinted filling recipe or shared piece count is inferred.

Before you go. The operator lists lunch Wed-Sat 11 AM-2:30 PM, bar-only golden hour 3-5 PM, dinner Wed-Thu 5-9 PM and Fri-Sat 5-9:30 PM. It offers takeout and delivery Wed-Thu all day and Fri-Sat only during lunch, subject to kitchen capacity. Menus are seasonal; severe-allergy accommodation is limited. Its Toast route returned 403, and the route's old Spruill Avenue identifier is not the current address.

Dishes to know. Siu mai

Delivery: direct The exact current-branch operator FAQ explicitly offers takeout and delivery Wednesday-Thursday all day and Friday-Saturday during lunch only, so long as the kitchen is able. This records advertised service with that restriction; its linked Toast route returned 403 and was stopped. Current acceptance, address eligibility, charges and courier identity are unknown; confirm by phone.

This is another explicitly neighboring North Charleston branch, at Rivers Avenue Ste 116. China Garden's own homepage carries a full priced Chinese menu with a Hunan chicken entry, vegetable dishes and ordinary dumplings; its ordering link currently redirects away from the branch.

Build an order. Consider 710. Hunan Chicken $12.50 with V3. Broccoli with Garlic Sauce $10.00 and A3. Dumplings $7.95 from the own homepage menu. The selected dumpling heading states neither count nor preparation; no count or soup-dumpling identity is copied from an independently discovered platform description. Ask about sauces and the intended dietary preparation.

Before you go. The posted weekly list says Mon and Wed-Sat 11 AM-9 PM, Sunday noon-9 PM and Tuesday closed. During this Friday-morning fetch, the homepage instead said CLOSED until 11 AM Saturday; confirm that conflict by phone. The linked ordering URL redirected to Springroll's general page with a cancellation-redirect marker, which proves neither restaurant closure nor current ordering availability.

No delivery listed No current operator delivery route was verified on the fetched pages as of 2026-10-09. The homepage offers Order Pickup, but that linked menu redirects away from the branch; a customer testimonial mentions delivery without establishing current service. Please confirm by phone.
