" Great place to grab a meal! The menu is extensive with lots of options. The staff was friendly and my food came out hot, which I appreciated. The flavors were delicious, but I've had better elsewhere in terms of just authenticity. Overall a satisfying experience and will probably return when I'm craving Chinese food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I get my Chinese takeout from here regularly, and the service is usually fast and friendly. Their wontons are good and I always enjoy the sweet and sour chicken. I appreciate the portion sizes and feel like they offer a good value for the money. The decoration in the restaurant leaves something to be desired, but I mainly order takeout, so it doesn't affect me much! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a loss for our community with the closing of South China Gourmet! This was our family's favorite place. I remember ordering from them weekly and always relishing their signature spicy beef stir fry. As a fan of authentic flavors, I could genuinely taste the fresh ingredients. The service was consistently warm and prompt. Everything from the ambiance to the food made it perfect for family dinners. It's a shame they’re no longer around. " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to be a regular customer here, and I always enjoyed their food, even if some dishes missed the mark occasionally. Their sesame chicken was mediocre at best, but the eggplant in garlic sauce was fantastic! The portions varied greatly, leaving me occasionally wishing for a bit more food. The staff, while generally friendly, had moments where the service lagged. I will say, there's a charm in a family-run restaurant like this that you just can't replicate. I hope they can return to their former glory! " (*Curated Review*)

" To be honest, I always found South China Gourmet to be a bit overrated. The food was alright but nothing to rave about, and I never thought it truly represented authentic Chinese cuisine. The ambiance was the real letdown, looking more like a fast-food joint than a cozy restaurant. Sometimes I felt like I could have been eating from a chain restaurant, but their crab rangoon did stand out. The portions were decent enough, but the taste often fell flat. If you’re in the area, it’s okay to try, but don’t expect anything extraordinary. " (*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*)
