" As a fan of authentic Chinese food, I have to say Lam's Kitchen is a gem! The flavors transported me straight to the streets of Hong Kong. The crispy tofu stuffed with shrimp paste and mala beef brisket were out of this world. It was moderately busy on Friday night, but we had no issue with our reservations and the service was very friendly. If you’re in Charlotte and love Chinese cuisine, don’t miss this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been meaning to visit Lam’s Kitchen for a while, and finally did last week. The food was good but fell flat on some authenticity aspects—more like Americanized Chinese cuisine. The dishes tasted fine, just not what I was hoping for. On the bright side, the ambience was inviting, and the staff was friendly. I would recommend it for its approachable menu but don't expect the full depth of authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a Chinese food enthusiast, Lam's Kitchen offered dishes that truly reflect traditional recipes and flavors. The chili fish was to die for, and the service was kind and personable. The ambience of the restaurant is quite cozy with a nice crowd that makes for a vibrant atmosphere. I can't wait to come back and share this hidden gem with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're after authentic regional Chinese dishes, then Lam's Kitchen is the place to go. I've tried dim sum elsewhere and have always been disappointed until I came here. Their soup dumplings are a must-try and absolutely delicious! The service was attentive and quick, making the dining experience even better. I’d recommend talking to the staff for recommended dishes—they know what’s best! " (*Curated Review*)

" I regret not visiting Lam's Kitchen sooner. Their food had great depth of flavor that I've missed in other Chinese restaurants. The Asian flavors were on point and they had a good balance in seasoning which adds to the authentic vibe. The only drawback was the waiting time, which was considerable, but it is a popular spot for good reason. Would still highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Lam's Kitchen and while the food was decent, I expected more in terms of authenticity. The sweet and sour chicken tasted Americanized. However, I must admit the dim sum was delightful! The restaurant was busy, so the atmosphere was lively but the service could have been better. I would give it another shot, especially to try their famous spicy dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I love that Lam's Kitchen embraces authenticity in a delightful way. When I visited, the Szechuan specialties immediately caught my attention. The food was flavorful and met my expectations for authentic Chinese cuisine. The service had a few hiccups, but nothing too bothersome during the busy dinner hour. It's definitely a returning spot for my family! " (*Curated Review*)
