I'm so glad Taipei Express has opened in Indian Land! The options around here have not been great until now. It was so bad that I've driven all the way to their Providence location for carry-out before. So I was excited to see their sign go up!
I checked it out the first chance I could and it was a great visit. I impulsively talked myself into trying Mongolian Beef instead of their wonderful Crispy Scallion Chicken which is my usual order.
There are a handful of tables in the restaurant, so you can eat there in a pinch but it's a takeout style place. Everyone in the kitchen and at the counter was so friendly. And I brought home a TON of food for myself and my husband. Dinner serving sizes are easily big enough for two full meals. We had the second half of our dinners tonight and enjoyed them just as much.
My Mongolian Beef was very good, and I highly recommend it if you like Mongolian Beef. But you know, it was no Crispy Scallion Chicken. THAT is my favorite dish there, by far. But the exciting thing is, I can just go back this week and get the chicken whenever I want, because my favorite Chinese restaurant in Charlotte is now in my backyard! 😋
Don't bother with the other Chinese restaurants in the area, especially not the new fast-food chain spot that opened further south. Taipei Express...

Read moreVisited the new location today and was impressed! The staff was so friendly and professional, I love a family-owned business! I sat inside to eat and was quite hot, so I’d just suggest having a comfortable temperature for diners.
I ordered the wonton soup which had two nice sized wontons. The soup could definitely use more flavor, but for the price I won’t complain! My friend had sesame chicken and said it was good. I ordered their crispy scallion beef was yummy. I added broccoli and I appreciated how fresh the ingredients were. I’m looking forward to trying...
