I have been eating at Shun Lee for just a few months now. Usually I go there on Sundays after church. My friend and I have been dining in, and the food has been good. They are operating with barely a full staff, so the service to be seated and waited on can be a wait if there are several people coming at the same time. However, the food has been good enough that we have overlooked this. Twice now I have called in an order for pickup in the evening. Twice it has not been good. Both times I called the restaurant to advise, and they offered me a free replacement meal the first time. The second time I told them I would not be coming back. The Kum Pao Chicken was nasty! I could not swallow the first bite and should have called the Health Dept. The egg roll was obviously left over from earlier in the day and reheated. Like I said, if you go there during the daytime, they seem to be o.k. But beware going in the evening. I have written them off completely. You can't work your family all day long and expect to get good quality, consistent service out of them.

A restaurant that has been around for many years and the food continues to be excellent. The interior of the restaurant could use a make over but the food and staff are excellent even after all these years.

This is a great, neighborhood restuarant and has become a Charlotte institution. The owners and their staff always make you feel very welcome, whether you are sitting down with a dinner party of six or running in for take out. Their consistency in both quality of food and service is one of the reasons why locals keep beating a path back to their door.

We haven't been to Shun Lee Palace in years until tonight. We moved and just started patronizing a spot nearer home - until it closed recently. What a treat to find the same gracious friendly owner, and the food even better than we remembered. The Honey Peach Shrimp was absolutely unbelievable. Like nothing I have ever eaten! There are lots of spicy items on the menu, but if that doesn't appeal to you, the chef can adjust the heat to suit your taste. The service was unbelievable also. Our glasses never even approached empty before someone refilled them.
We've eaten at many of the chinese resturants in Charlotte, but Shun Lee Palace will definately be our most patronized spot again.
Our sincere thanks goes out to the folks at Shun Lee Palace, for adding new dishes but not loosing the old favorites - and the same old charm. A true eating pleasure!

The food is good, especially the sesame tofu so any vegetarians would like that. There seems to be a wide selection (Meat and vegatarian) and one of the owners seems to always be circulating so you get personalized attention.
