Fantastic! I live over on Johns and have been meaning to come here for ages. Finally did, and it did not disappoint. I don’t really like spice, but the complex Sichuan heat was to die for. Food was fantastic, drinks were fantastic, set up was fantastic. A cozy spot to escape to for some outstanding food and drinks.

This is an amazing spot for vegetarian options and mocktails are great too! The outside seating area was really lovely and was a great dining experience. I wish I lived closer because I would come here all the time.

Kwei Fei is an absolute gem that left us in awe from start to finish. It's a dining experience that's hard to forget. First, let's talk about the food. The pork belly was an absolute standout; it's undoubtedly the star of their menu. Each bite was a mouthwatering explosion of flavor that left us craving for more. The service at Kwei Fei is top-notch. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure you have a memorable visit. They are attentive, friendly, and make you feel right at home. What truly sets Kwei Fei apart is the innovative and exciting array of flavors on their menu. Every dish we tried was an adventure for our taste buds. It's a place where culinary creativity knows no bounds, and it's incredibly fun to explore. We loved every single item we ordered. Each dish had its unique charm and was executed flawlessly. Kwei Fei's commitment to delivering an exceptional dining experience is palpable in every bite. It's also worth noting that Kwei Fei is an LGBTQ safe space, which is something we greatly appreciate. It's a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone can feel comfortable and valued. Lastly, a shoutout to our server who was absolutely exceptional. Their knowledge of the menu and passion for what they do added an extra layer of enjoyment to our visit. In summary, Kwei Fei is a culinary treasure. It offers delectable dishes, superb service, intriguing flavors, and a warm, inclusive atmosphere. We can't wait to return and explore the rest of the menu. Kwei Fei, you've won our hearts!

This place is freaking fantastic!! My tongue has had dreams about the tingling La Zi Ji since our first visit. In fact I had one last night about all the decadent flavors this place offers and I knew this morning I had to order delivery for lunch to enjoy from home. Worth every penny. This place has me in a choke hold. Dan Dan Mian, fire peanut-buttery noodles. Sweet water noodles, I don’t even know how to describe but crack. Mouth watering crack. Get an order of those for just yourself, trust me. Crescent dumplings? Also fire. Thank you guys for bringing this absolute beauty of a restaurant to the Island!!

We love Kwei Fei! One of our go-to date night spots in Charleston, the food never disappoints. There are many vegan and gluten-free items and it's all flavorful and delicious. Highly recommend if you like spicy flavorful food. Just a note that parking can be tricky, as Kwei Fei shares a lot with Pour House and there's always a crowd.

THIS PLACE IS HEAVEN! We visited Kwei Fei for the first time a few days ago and we were blown away by how good this place was! This place serves up REAL Chinese food so much better than any other place even remotely in the area! If you’re wanting to try food that’s actually served in China, without visiting China, you should come here. I should know - I visited China for 3 weeks a few years back and this food is very similar to what I had over there. It was so wonderful to try real Chinese food again, and not the American Chinese food you find everywhere across the country. We ordered many different things including: hibiscus mango tea, Malambo No. 1 mocktail, crescent dumplings, hong shao rou, dan dan mian, la zi ji, and sichuan beef. We didn’t really like the drinks too much honestly, but the food was spectacular! Our absolute favorites were the crescent dumplings and hong shao rou. They were the best dumplings and pork belly dishes we have ever eaten! We are craving this place already, despite just coming, and are hoping we’re back in the Charleston area again soon to try this place again!! We also saw they’re opening a new restaurant at a different location in downtown Charleston, so I would imagine that place is excellent as well! Moral of the story though: try Kwei Fei out ASAP if you’re in the area!!

We just moved to Johns Island from the DC area and have been in search of some really good Asian cuisine. We were thrilled when a friend recommended Kwei Fei. The food is truly excellent - fresh ingredients, innovative Chinese/Fusion cuisine, wonderful service, and truly fun atmosphere. Only problem is deciding which dish to have - they are all so good. We love this place, and highly recommend it!

The food was amazing we came here for our wedding anniversary to try Kwei Fei’s Sichuan style cuisine and they did not disappoint! The server was nothing but amazing but because dining in during a hot summer month the heat was unbearable even indoors. The atmosphere was small and nice and I love the water drop decoration by the bar.

We have eaten here several times. Very spicy but very good. Several vegan options. Interesting wine list. We prefer eating on the deck to inside. Miss the fried mushroom appetizer. The dry fried green beans are a must

One of top 3 favorite restaurants in Charleston, and I’ve lived here for over a decade! Always have a good time here and the food is unique and flavorful and always an experience. This is how food&bev should be—easygoing staff with delicious food. Shoutout to Peter and Karina behind the bar, and Libby also!
