Consistently good Chinese food and service for lunch and dinner. Food is ready as scheduled.
Paradoxically posting a review of what is probably my favorite Chinese takeout place to make a negative comment. If you're like me, you probably tend to the same items at your restaurants that you go to over and over. For many years Taipei Express has proven reliably excellent at General's Chicken, Chicken with Black Bean Sauce, Hunan Beef. For whatever reason, I wanted something different today. After scanning the menu, I decided to try Orange Chicken. It was underwhelming -- neither particularly orange, nor spicy (as indicated in the menu). There was plenty of good quality chicken, and there were both pieces of orange peel and hot peppers in the bowl, so if you want a kind of generic Chinese chicken dish, you'll be fine. You can ask them to add vegetables (extra charge) if that's important to you. Portions, as others have noted, are generous -- one dish (which comes with rice) will serve two or preemptively answer questions about what to have for lunch tomorrow.
We ordered in on Uber eats and I'd been dreaming of Chinese! And being from New York, I hadn't come across a good restaurant since we've been here. A colleague recommended it to me and I figured, let's give it a try. We ordered the fried wings, sesame chicken, fried rice, seafood lo mein, and crab Rangoon. Everything was delicious. It arrived still extremely hot, which was a pleasant surprise, since it was a bit of a distance. We will definitely return sooner than later!

The best Chinese food in charlotte, hands down!All of their chicken dishes are really flavorful and use pieces of real chicken (not the mushy stuff you find inside some coated chicken at certain places). However, I DO NOT recommend their fried rice or dumplings, not the best...but everything else I've had here is delicious.
Great Chinese food. Highly recommend the Crispy Scallion Chicken- it's a sweet sauce that's super tasty and one of their most popular dishes. I added broccoli and onion to mine and it was great. The portions are super large! Also had to get some crab rangoons as an appetizer. This is my new go-to Charlotte spot for Chinese delivery/takeout.
First time trying this place and I was pleasantly surprised by how good it is for your random Chinese takeout. I got the lunch special chicken and broccoli and the flavor taste just like PF Changs! Fair price too. $9. Friendly service. Clean environment. Will be my favorite local Chinese takeout spot from now on.
This is our go to as of right now when craving Chinese in Charlotte. I still have yet to find a place that has that true Chinese take out taste. Taipei is always fresh and hot. They are are super friendly and we usually don't have to wait longer than 10 minutes for our order. This visit we got sesame chicken, general tso chicken fried rice and an egg roll. My boyfriend devoured him sesame chicken. Literally left nothing in the bowl. The general tso was surprisingly good. Not as spicy as I would expect and also had mushrooms which I didn't expect but nonetheless I enjoyed. Fried rice could use a bit more umph. Egg roll was okay. Wish it was a little bigger. It's a good place if the craving hits. We will be back.
