Chuan Wang Fu

This is one of the best kept secrets in Charlotte. The family is great, the food is incredible, and the menu is second to none. Authentic, affordable, outstanding.

This is the most authentic Chinese restaurant in Charlotte. If you want REAL Chinese dishes and spices this is the place to go! After living in China in multiple cities I really appreciate what they are cooking up. Pun intended lol. We had the stir fried potatoes with red peppers, the infamous garlic green beans with peppers, the traditional fried egg and tomato and chicken in dark sweet and sour sauce. DELICIOUS.

Best Schezuan Chinese food in town, very spicy if you order from the Chinese menu, but you can ask to have it toned down. They still serve Japanese food as well, so you will have two menus. Only beer and wine available now, they no longer serve liquor.

It used to be that it was never too crowded, but always good. Now it gets busy but it's still always good. Only problem is the service, which is generally slow. That said, this is definitely a place worth eating at, especially for authentic food.

We had the Ma Po Tofu and the soup dumplings. The tofu came in a rich red sauce with ground meat, onion, and spices and was flavorful and a little spicy. The soup dumplings were pork and the broth was rich and delicious and the dumpling itself was just chewy enough. We can't wait to go back and try more of their Szechuan menu.
