The most interesting reviews


Since I visited this place last time (2 weeks ago) it changed significantly. I can understand the price increase. But frog legs now are on certain weekdays. It was my favorite dish, and now it's available only on days when I cannot get there. Overall food got less tasty. Sweet and sour soup is only sour now. It was my favorite place to eat in Charleston. Now I'm afraid I have to look for a new one. At least tea is still good. Below I'm leaving an original review from one year ago. It had 5 stars. "Very affordable buffet. Not too many dishes. Very clean and lovely inside. Not crowded at all. Some food is so-so, some is delicious. Definitely worth the money."


I was looking for a new Chinese restaurant that delivered . I live several blocks from a place that I have been ordering from for about 20 years . I've had one too many disappointments with them lately and proximity alone isn't a reason for me to keep patronizing them. I asked for recommendations on a restaurant review page that I follow and they suggested Main Tin. I also heard glowing reports about an employee named Isaac. I called to place my order, I heard a pleasant voice and I had to ask, "is this Isaac?" He assured me that it was. I asked if they delivered on New Year's Eve. They did. I placed my order.. Let me tell you, Isaac and yes, the food were both wonderful! Everything arrived hot , the portions were generous and the prices reasonable.


They even have one of my favorite dishes that I can rarely find in the area other than on a buffet: Black Pepper Chicken! I was so happy when I saw it! And it was some of the best I've ever had . My boyfriend ordered the General Tso. Of late, the other places have more breading than chicken. He has actually had empty pieces of breading with zero chicken. Not so at Main Tin! There were generous pieces of chicken with every bite! And Isaac more than lived up to the hype! He was kind and attentive. We got 2 menus, condiments without asking and FREE fortune cookies. Sadly, they aren't added to orders from some restaurants without an additional charge any longer. I think we have found our place for Chinese food! My recommendation- try the Black Pepper chicken and say hello to Isaac!


The chicken teriyaki is absolutely delicious! The fried rice is always fresh and their crab rangoon‘s are so tasty. One of my favorite restaurants. The staff is also super friendly!


I've been eating from their menu for years! Great place! Still lots of food for the price

Hands down the best! Well mannered service dogs are welcome. We had the best experience with our registered service animal. One of if not the best Chinese restaurants and quality of the food is superb!!!

Food is great as usual, but prices are up. One lg wonton and 1 lg egg drop just under $11. Still delicious, but it seems pricey.
