Beijing Chinese Cuisine

Won’t go back here ever again. Got boneless spare ribs for my first time there and they were terrible. Threw out most of the order.

The only thing that was ok is the shrimp egg roll that we ordered. The fried rice is the worst I have ever tasted. Same goes for the chicken with garlic sauce as well as the general Tso’s chicken. We tried it, but probably won’t be back. We will stick with our favorite… BOADING!

Food was alright but the restaurant smelled unclean, and the gentleman at the front desk was very rude. I had one question about the menu and he was very short with me. They need to work on the customer service

This isn’t a high end Chinese restaurant, but it’s pretty good. The staff is always nice and helpful and the food is always pretty good. I really don’t have any complaints

Their lunch specials are so cheap… less than $ 7 for chicken chow mein, egg roll, fried rice, and fortune cookie. The food is served quickly, the place is never too crowded, and I crave their food. One of my favorite spots in Charlotte for lunch, great value.

Great takeout. Really like the Hunan Chicken. It’s fresh and love the bok choy and extra veggies they give upon request.

Good crab Rangoon. Decent prices and the place looked really clean. The customers in there already looked pretty pleased with service. Only complaint is that there is no delivery or late night pick up.

In the South Blvd area and was looking for take out Chinese. Tried this place based on convenience and Unilocal rating. The restaurant has dine in options and decent parking spaces. There was a decent selection of items and combinations on the menu. We ordered the chicken fried rice and chicken and shrimp egg foo yung. I was a bit turned off by the impatience of the man taking our order at the register as he didn’t seem to like that we asked him to re-​confirm that the chicken fried rice has onions but no other vegetables (peas, carrots, etc.), yet the «free» friend rice that he offered with our egg foo yung does have vegetables. He dropped his head and stopped talking like we were slow. WTH?! Then says «I try to be nice so I offer the fried rice). I started to walk out, but didn’t.
In any event, our food was bagged with the patties separate from the gravy, and two additional containers with the two fried rice. There was also a greasy looking fortune cookie in the bag. Upon serving the food, the chicken in the chicken fried rice appeared to be barely cooked side. I braved it out and it tasted ok (I’ll follow up with an update if I get sick :)) The egg foo yung patties were rather tasteless and the accompanying gravy tasted like canned beef gravy — not good. The «free» fried rice actually tasted pretty good.
I wouldn’t recommend this place and definitely will not be going back.

We have lived all over Charlotte and have tried many Chinese restaurants over the years. Beijing is our favorite. And the prices can’t be beat either. Haven’t had a dish I didn’t like yet, and their egg rolls are fresh and delicious (and I’m normally not a fan) service is great and for pickup orders they will have it ready in 10 minutes or less, usually.

I ordered Chicken with Broccoli as takeout last night. The lid was not put on tight enough. Some of the sauce spilled out of the container and out of the brown bag onto the floor board of my car. Upon getting out of my car, the container popped open and sauce went everywhere! I was holding the brown bag as I was supposed to (how they give it to you in the restaurant).
Also, the chicken with broccoli was not good at all. I will not be back

Yummy! Being from NY I’ve had a hard time finding Chinese food down here that matches NY. I feel like I say that all the time, it’s so hard not to compare everything to home! But I finally found a good place and it’s super close to my apartment which is a big plus too!
I’ve been here a few times now and have gotten different things. The first time I got sweet and sour chicken… you can never go wrong with it! It was so good, crispy and crunchy and perfect with the sweet and sour sauce. The next time we got sesame chicken, again really good! Crunchy and just the right amount of sauce. I hate when Chinese places drench the chicken in sauce. It ruins it! All the sides were good too, egg rolls, fried rice, and wonton soup. Their wonton soup is made from scratch and delicious! The lo mein was just okay, maybe it was just this time but it was a little too greasy for my taste.
I can’t wait for the next Saturday night movie night and Chinese food!

Terrrrrrible!
Horrible service! We got to Bejing just a few minutes before they opened. Waited several minutes after opening time for them to unlock the doors. Once we went in we stood there and waited for the guy to come back to seat us. He said to us & pointed «have a seat». We sat down and started looking at the menu and again, waited for the guy to come back and get our drink order. Once he brought over the waters I ask what kind of sauce came with the «chicken & broccoli» because literally that’s all that was listed on the menu. Absolutely no descriptions on the menu. The guys respond to my sauce question was. «Brown sauce». Ummm okay? Cool.
I tried to eat a bite of the «chicken» and it was so mushy I had to spit it out. The rice tasted like boil in a bag. I’ll just say that we paid for our food and walked around the corner to Einstein Bagels.

Ahhhh Beijing Chinese — aka Silent Chinese — a quaint bastion of flavor for those seeking the culinary experience of the great General Tso, or Kung Pao Chicken, or Lo Mein, or Fried Rice. Service is always incredibly quick and friendly, with a soft-​spoken sincerity that is unmatched in the queen city.
This is easily the best chinese food place in South End (though perhaps the only one). Prices are reasonable, food is good, and service is quick, whether you dine in or take-​out. The place is so unbelievably quiet that you can’t help but be amazed when the staff take your order at a whisper.
Try the Kung Pao Chicken — it’s spicy, not deep fried, and has plenty of peanuts and vegetables.

I ordered a take out — Orange Chicken and it was pathetic. Had to trash it as it was anything but edible

Great place for Chinese & so quick! Excellent food and service is great, very nice staff!

It’s your typical Chinese food, but it’s done well. The portions are really generous and everything is high quality. One combo could easily be two meals for one person. The staff is great and service is fast. You don’t ever have to wait over 10 minutes for takeout.

Solid 4 stars here. This place is within walking distance of me so I usually place an order over the phone and walk over to pick it up. They aren’t super busy all the time, but the staff are super friendly and I have not had a bad dish/​order here at all. There’s a large dining room that is neat and orderly and the food often comes out super quick.
Being off of South Blvd, they have a small parking lot to the side and back — but you can’t ask for a better location.
There menu is pretty extensive. The usual favorites you will find at other Chinese places but they also have some «chef specials».
Solid take out experience here too. They will include the utensils and napkins if you forget to pick some up on the way out. Very efficient brown paper bag packaging and clear order receipt stapled on the top of the bag to eliminate any confusion.

Hadn’t had Chinese in quite some time, but really enjoyed the General Tso tofu with brown rice. Magically ready in 10 minutes no matter what you order. Good for pick up or dining in and it’s nice that they actually have some parking.
My only complaint is that you can’t order extra veggies or a side of veggies even. It comes as it’s own meal (veggie delight?) with another tub of unnecessary rice. Oh well, at least they do good work with the tofu.

Ugh, I should have known better. As soon as I walked in the door I was smacked in the face with the 90.5 Sanitation rating. Do you know how many infractions have to happen to get a 90.5??? A ton, that’s how many. So there I was, paralyzed between my good judgment and my crippling craving for a nice beef with broccoli. So I took a gamble and tried Beijing.
The lunch price was just $ 7 or so which included an unimpressive spring roll that left grease on the tongue, brownish rice (I suspect it was not actually brown grain rice but soy colored rice) and a fatty beef with broccoli in a slimy thick sauce with too much thickener and fake (canned) garlic taste and other fake flavors. Oh man… It left me unsatisfied and disappointed. I should have known I couldn’t scratch the itch to have good Chinese in anemic Charlotte. One thing I miss terribly about California is truly good authentic Chinese and Mexican. So I guess I’ll stick with sushi, Thai and Vietnamese. But I digress…
Now I know better than to eat at Beijing again (though they have a convenient location and wicked fast service. I will head to Taipei Express or China 88 next time to get mediocre Chinese instead of blatantly bad (and possibly dirty) Chinese. Bummer.

So, one star is hard for me to give, but Beijing was an utter disappointment. Livin in the area, I love trying new places and Chinese, even better. So, driving home Friday night I spotted Beijing. Got home, checked out the menu and called for pickup. I ordered the Shrimp with broccoli dinner special which includes rice, egg roll, and your choice of soup. I chose the spring roll and wonton soup. I was quoted 15 minutes and when I arrived my order was ready. And, there were multiple people picking up orders as well as diners in the restaurant. A good sign in my mind, not!
The wonton soup was brown, see photo. Never having seen a brown soup I was a little nervous and I was right, nasty taste. The rice was so blah and the shrimp and broccoli was covered in a thick brown sauce that has a horrible taste and the shrimp tasted very fishy. As for the spring roll, pure grease. All I will say is the fortune cookie was the only thing about the meal I enjoyed. I will definitely not be back. Bummer, because it is convenient to me.
