An East Lansing institution blending Chinese and Korean comfort dishes since the 1980s. Frequently recognized by City Pulse’s Top of the Town and celebrated by MSU alumni, it remains the go‑to for late‑night fried rice, jjajangmyeon, and bulgogi.

This place has the best food ever! I mean it’s always hot, fresh, and tasty. I have so many things I want to try. I’ll be back today however for my rice and my noodles. It’s the next day and I’m still full. Edit…. I’ve become a Charlie’s girl regular lol. This food be so good, plenty and reasonably priced. Last waitress could have done better.

Haven’t been back in years—still just like we remembered. Prices are fair for a college town, portions are decent. Mapo tofu and beef chow fun are solid picks. Skip the Chinese broccoli. Between Mongolian beef and chicken, definitely go beef. As someone who usually eats authentic Chinese food, this is about as guilt-free as Americanized Chinese gets.

The food is great and the service is excellent! The Pad Thai is so yummy 😋 you can choose how spicy the noodles are and all dishes come with vegetables.

The bibimbap at Charlie Kang's is delicious, and tastes as great as I recall from previous times eating there while in Michigan. The fresh vegetable spring rolls were nicely filled. All went down well with a lot of oolong tea. Another guest in my dinner party had the pork egg rolls with there cashew chicken. They said everything was delicious and the egg rolls were cooked perfectly. The server was friendly and professional. He was even surprised how quickly I ate my food. Parking is in an adjacent parking garage, but the walk to the restaurant isn't terrible.

Great dining experience right near MSU campus. This food is one of the best in the area in my opinion. Wonton soup is delicious among many other items. Tried carryout the week before and that was good but the dining in experience was even better. Will be back here soon.

3rd time ordering and 3 time regretting that decision. Ordered sesame chicken. Taste microwaved. Chicken was dry like jerky and the breading was just falling off. The sauce taste good but to avoid getting sick by the old chicken it went in the trash can AGAIN! My family will not waist money at this establishment again. Must have a ton of family leaving fake reviews... Beware!

Got some food delivered and it was perfect. I love Korean/Manchurian Chinese food and this place does a pretty good job, made it a very nostalgic meal. Also having an American Chinese option was great for my husband. Can't wait to try the Korean menu next time, for they had an extensive dishes that I have not seen served in other Korean restaurants.
