Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

We had an excellent lunch. I strongly recommend the Thai Beef wok. There's definitely a great chef cooking here.

We came into town to see our kids for USC parents weekend. Everyone loves Sushi so we stopped at Miyo's What a wonderful experience we had! The food was great! I had the Sashimi platter which was reasonably priced for the large assortment of fish on the plate. Son had several pieces of Nigiri and a few rolls, he loved them all. Service was prompt, We had a waiter named Mike, who was polite, prompt and provided really excellent service. So we will be back to Miyos every time we visit Columbia. Thanks to Mike and the whole staff for a great time!

Been to Miyo's three times in my past two trips down to Columbia, South Carolina and I must say, although the sushi is not as good as the sushi in the Northeast, it's the best sushi I have experienced in South Carolina. The fish is fresh most of the time. Not the best grade of fish but not too shabby either. But not only is the sushi good, the rock tempura shrimp is to die for! The lightly tempura fried shrimp glazed over with a spicy mayo sauce passing my lips and stimulating my tastebuds is a feeling I'll never forget. I've had pretty good rock shrimp here in the Northeast but I must say, the best rock tempura shrimp I have had is at this Miyo's. overall, Miyo's is pretty darn good. Not phenomenal, but definitely beyond edible. And just remember, ROCK TEMPURA SHRIMP! I posted a picture of it in the photos. Check it out. P.S. When you're eating the delicious rock shrimp, don't forget to lightly dunk it in your soy sauce for epic flavor enhancement. You're welcome.

Great serving sizes but a little expensive for dinner. Good service and a laid back atmosphere. A good place to bring friends to hang out or a date for good conversation.

Reagin was an amazing waitress!! She was so attentive and presented great customer service! Our food arrived in appropriate order!! We are super satisfied!!! I'll miss the Miyos in Irmo, SC!!

Service was solid, and the sushi and appetizers came out fast. Only issue was the price for the just ok food we received. I would give 4 stars if I ate here during a time where they had specials and the prices weren't so steep.

Great Chinese and sushi but a little overpriced.

The parking lot always seems full at this location, so it was time to give it a try this last Wednesday night. They have an extensive menu with a wide variety of stir fry, sushi, and sake. My mom and I shared some edamame, each had a cup of soup (miso for me, hot and sour for my mom), and went with a couple of stir fry options (shrimp & spinach and a 'build-your-own'). Everything was fresh and tasty and served quickly. Service was great, our server was knowledgeable and very helpful with the menu. Management was visible as well and stopped by the table unprovoked to check on things, which is always appreciated. All in all a good experience, worth the stop if you are in Forest Acres. I will be back soon to try the sushi.

We have been here 2x in the last week (that in itself should tell you something). The sushi is very good compared to what I have eaten in Columbia but the Chinese dishes we tried were the standouts. The braised eggplant with minced shrimp and chicken is to die for. Though a bit oily, it is just sweet, salty, and spicy enough to keep you digging in long after you're full. The kung pao chicken is light years ahead of what you get at most places, not overly sauced, and just spicy enough. A tofu dish and the moo-shu chicken we had were also top notch. Service was very friendly, they remembered us from the last time we were there, and made us feel at home. Note, the cooked food on the weekend took almost 45 minutes to get to us. Our server told us that they have all new chefs, most of them Chinese, who speak very little English. The language barrier has been difficult for them to overcome. The other reason for the long wait, and this is a positive, is that all sauces are made to order. While that translates to delicious food, it can take forever if there is a big party in the house (which there was for us both times). Try the teas to drink. They are outstanding. So far, this is place is a can't miss for us.

Delicious!!! The food is so good. They are always kindly accommodating. My family has added and removed things from sushi rolls and hot dishes. You can also get steamed veggies instead of rice- at no additional charge!! It is such a treat to be able to find great (american version of) Chinese and sushi in one place. The sushi does not have too much rice and it is PACKED with fish. This is honestly my favorite restaurant in Columbia. Thank you Miyos.

I will never forget the Cashew Caramel Cheesecake here. It was exceptionally delicious. I came to this restaurant twice and they were both great experience. The staffs were super friendly. I like the atmosphere and the decoration of the restaurant.

The decor here is beautiful. Its intimate and you can tell its carefully thought out. I loved my server and everyone working was super nice. But I dont know. I just dont think its that good. This is the third miyos location that I've been to and each time I always think what am I missing? Am I ordering the wrong stuff? Ive never found it that fresh or that great. Ive tried the udon noodle soup and it was pretty much flavorless even though it was full of meat and noodles. The broth is always my favorite part of any soup and I think really shows how good it is. This broth tasted like water. I will say the phat tai isn't to bad. It was a good portion and had a nice flavor. But for me the kicker are the Vietnamese summer rolls. These were among some of the worst I've ever had and I'm including the ones we made camping once when we forgot all the ingredients and basically only had the wrapper, some green peppers and lots of love. These shouldn't even be on their menu. If my mom was with me (the best Vietnamese cook I know) she would've sent them back. They were flavorless half wrapped rolls of shredded iceberg lettuce and thinly sliced shrimp with an artsy drizzle of sauce. They actually made me physically angry to look at them. I did like the oolong tea though and on the menu it said it was a fat burner so thats always a plus.

I have been eating at Miyo's on the regular since college and it's just as delicious as always! I always start with the veggie spring rolls with extra duck sauce and NO mustard. I don't know why but I despise that mustard. Anyway... scarf those down while waiting on the main course. I usually get the sesame chicken or the general tso chicken. When I do get the GTC the friendly staff are more than happy to accommodate my request for it to be prepared less spicy. Boyfriend always gets the general tso shrimp which I'm not sure is actually on the menu but they make it for him when he asks for it. Sometimes... when they have it... I'll order the coconut cake. I don't know where they get these cakes, but I would marry the baker. The coconut cake is fantastic and light. The cream has a wonderful coconut flavor but the actual coconut flakes are on the outside. I like to pretend that I'm at Harry and Sally's wedding when I eat it. The actual restaurant is well decorated and there's a back room that can hold about 20 (so come on and grab your jukebox money). One tip - if you go at night then you might get some headlights in your face depending on where you sit. There are parking spaces right in front of the building so when people pull in they might temporarily blind you so watch out!

Good food, great service. I would deem it more of a Japanese fusion than pure Japanese but that really did not take away from the quality of the ingredients. It is a bit on the pricey end, especially for dinner. The lunch menu seemed to have some pretty good deals though.
(4)WanderLustinDani P.
The atmosphere was very pleasing, alot of items on menu, presentation of the food was Excellent. Food taste was ok, nothing to make the place stand out. A host of items on the menu, offering something for the whole family. The shop was both clean and tidy, having plenty seating. The hostess/ waitress was attentive at all times. Staff members there greeted us in/ out when we left. The food was more than filling. I will give Miyos a second chance oneday.

I go here and get their salad and sushi. It's unbelievable if you know what to order. The Godzilla is to die for.

"Asian Fusion " is normally not connected with "Authentic" but the food here is very close to being authentic. Chinese dishes and sushi are delicious! The desert menu is limited but for that price, the portion is unbelievably huge! And, they taste good. Don't forget to try their REAL tea too!
(4)Lisa C.
Very disappointed. Upon entering the staff looked almost disheveled. Waiter couldn't offer any details on Peking duck he had never served. Initial soy and wasabi dishes were metal containers u might serve a melon ball of whipped butter in. Alternative was a glass ramakin that was sufficient. Octopus salad was decent. I don't know how to judge sushi but I had an experience chewing that made me think, not fresh. We usually have an almost orgasmic experience with unagi, but this was a dead lay that left me worrying about STDs.

This is my favorite Miyo's location (I've been to all of them--Harbison is my least fav, for comparison), and we have been going to this place probably 6-7 times a year for more than a decade. The food is tasty, service is generally good, and it's a nice looking place to have a quiet meal. I almost always order sushi when I come, largely because it's a food item I'm too lazy to make at home, but the whole menu is full of gems. They have a really nice variety to suit many tastes, so we often bring groups and guests here. Their fried rice options are my favorite in town, not too greasy and full of meat and veg. For sushi, I almost always get the summer roll, palmetto roll (shh...mayo, honey, and tuna is surprisingly freaking delicious), and the rabuck roll, but there is a pretty wide selection. One of the best deals if you want one of the basic rolls is their sushi lunch special! Drinks are a little high priced and occasionally inconsistent, but usually well-made. My biggest complaint with Miyo's is the boxing of to-go orders. Their go boxes are not sized appropriately for sushi, so when I order sushi to pick up, it's often kind of squished flat and any sauces on top end up just stuck to the box instead of on the food. Some of that is going to be inevitable with any to-go order, but some of it could be easily preventable by using taller containers.
