" Wow, what a bummer to see this place close down! I still remember the warm and inviting atmosphere each time I walked through the door. I could always count on their hot and sour soup to kick off a wonderful meal. It was genuinely spicy and flavorful, not like the vinegary, watered-down version you find at so many other restaurants. The chicken dishes were always juicy, packed with flavor, and the service was quick and attentive. I always walked out feeling satisfied with my meal, both in taste and in my wallet. It’s hard to believe this gem is no longer in business. They really set the bar for authentic Chinese cuisine in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, amazing food! The sesame chicken was crispy and appropriately sauced. The waiting staff was genuinely nice – they made me feel at home. The place had a comforting atmosphere, although it could use a little sprucing up now and then. Overall, each meal felt fresher than others I've had elsewhere, though the general consistency when it came to portion sizes could improve a little. Regardless, definitely a favorite of mine. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at South China Gourmet was quite pleasant. I went there with friends a while back for a casual dinner. The variety of dishes offered was impressive! I loved their dumplings – they were steamed to perfection and very flavorful. The general chicken was a bit overly sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The service was attentive, but we did wait a bit longer during peak hours. Nonetheless, the food was fresh and at a fair price. I would recommend it for those looking to satisfy their Chinese food cravings. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was deeply saddened to find out South China Gourmet has closed its doors. This restaurant was not just a place to grab a meal; it was a community staple. I’ve enjoyed many evenings with friends and family sharing their amazing dishes. Their sweet and sour chicken became my go-to comfort food, and the beef lo mein was always a winner on our family dinner nights. The staff was always friendly and welcoming, making every visit feel special. This restaurant will truly be missed. " (*Curated Review*)

" Here’s my honest take on this place. The food is decent, with standout items like their chicken fried rice, but not consistently great. I had a bland experience with the kung pao chicken, and the service was pretty average. It's definitely casual dining, and while it fills my cravings occasionally, I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it unless you love supporting local joints. " (*Curated Review*)

" Is it just me or does everything taste fresher at South China Gourmet? The ingredients always seem top-notch, and everything I have ordered has been enjoyable. Service has always been friendly too! I must say that their crab rangoon is legendary. The insights about portion sizes were definitely spot on, they could push their generosity a bit more. In any case, it’s a great place to visit, and I hope they stay around for a long time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a bit of a mixed experience. The chef seemed skilled, as evidenced by the savory dishes they turned out. Their sweet and sour pork was delicious, though the sweet side seemed to overwhelm the experience at times. I felt there was inconsistency in the menu offerings - some days they hit the mark, while others they missed. I appreciated the friendly staff, but we did experience a long wait one evening. It’s hard not to recommend them because there’s potential here. " (*Curated Review*)
