Sing Lay Chinese - Memphis

I had been craving Chinese food so my lady friend suggested this place. I got the shrimp fried rice (my go to) and some chicken wings. They were fantastic! She got an order of lo mein that she enjoyed. It was difficult to find but worth the hunt. I now have a go to place for Chinese food again since my old standard shut down because of the pandemic. I'm happy again!

Ordered Hot Sour soup. 2 egg rolls, and a combination beef pepper and sweet n sour chicken with fried rice!

My visit to Sing Lay is always like being at home. This place has been a marker in my childhood.. though I don't know the owners I can say that the food is good and I feel safe here. Their prices are reasonable and provide fusion options. Today I got hot wings (they're not spicy hot they are like mild hickory flavored wing pieces). They gave me like 10 of them and crinkle fries because I asked. The lady behind the counter may look young, but has looked the same since I was 3. I'm 34. She don't play. Lol so keep asking for what you want. Yess, she tried to discourage me from getting the fries and said No the hotwings come with fries lol but my son doesn't eat fried rice and I was sharing so I had to get these fries. Lol I got also two spring chicken rolls and a small shrimp fried rice extra Onion. She doesn't mind lol. Pointers... The spring roll is huge and the small fried rice is huge.. My total was 26 and some change so it was well worth it. I can't get this experience any where and the food is awesome..I drove 10 minutes home and it was still hot. And my 10 month old daughter is eating the wings right now. So they aren't hot at all, just tasty!!

Come during the day bc at night they are lazy. Maybe it was just tonight but I called in an order and went to pick it up, and when I got there they tried to say I never called in an order and wouldn't open the door. I guess they realized they had made a mistake and let me in but hadn't started cooking the food yet. In other words they weren't planning on making it to begin with. This used to be my favorite place to go but like every other food place in Memphis these days the customer service is poor at best. Change your hours or tell people on the phone you don't want to take orders if thats the case instead of wasting paying customer's time.

The chicken and broccoli dish had a good flavor, but there wasn't enough broccoli and the sauce was lacking. I also tried the pepper beef and chicken, but the chicken was undercooked. They seem to be trying hard, but they could definitely improve their offerings.
