“I recently had the pleasure of dining at the best Chinese rice noodle house in Chinatown Houston and it was an exceptional experience. This noodle house offers an array of mouthwatering appetizers that set the stage for an unforgettable meal. The star of the show was undoubtedly the Chinese rice noodles. They were perfectly cooked, with a delightful chewy texture that left me craving more. The wide variety of noodle options allowed for a customized dining experience, catering to all tastes. We tried their signature items like the chicken soup rice noodle and the Mala rice noodle soup. The appetizers were a highlight, with an extensive selection that included sticky rice cake, marinated pig feet, and cucumber salad. The sticky rice cake was a delightful blend of sweet and savory, with a satisfyingly chewy consistency. The marinated pig feet were tender and flavorful, a true delicacy. The cucumber salad provided a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors of the other dishes, with a delightful balance of tanginess and crunch. The service at JiBeiChuan noodle house was impeccable, and the staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Overall, this brand new Chinese rice noodle house is a must-visit for anyone looking to savor authentic and delicious Chinese cuisine. The combination of delectable rice noodles and a tantalizing selection of appetizers ensures an unforgettable culinary journey. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. And since it’s a authentic Chinese franchising noodle house, I don’t have to fly back to China to enjoy it. Highly recommended and will definitely come back.“

“It's easy, fast and tasty. There were many entree options and sides. The food was good. And the staff was super friendly There is indoor dining or to go.“

“is family oriented , is clean and fast service.“

“Food is as you would expect. Customer service was good. Cleanliness is lacking on a Wednesday afternoon. Tables need to be cleared and wiped down, floors are sticky. In their defense, they appear to be short staffed. The two here can't do everything. A little cleaning will go a long way. Don't let this place lose its shine.“

“Fast, friendly service and the food was very good. You get your money’s worth.“

“Great portion size, love the orange chicken. the wonton soup was different from what i’ve had before and lack flavor.
The egg drop soup was decent still needed extra seasoning for flavor, the three pieces plate was decent as well.“

“The owner, Mary is awesome and her recommendations were excellent. You must have the hot soup dumplings!!! This place is so good!“

“Delicious food. Full you up. I love the soup.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Love China Garden! Food is excellent!“

“Best quality of food! Just give it a try“

“Good value for quality food“

“It’s our first time eating here and we love the atmosphere and specially the food. Our waitress is very kind, accommodating and she knows the menu well. We celebrated Father’s Day here with our youngest son the foods and the service exceed our expectation. This restaurant is highly recommended and definitely will be back.“

“I enjoyed my experience here so much! First reason why is because the company I had with me was amazing however the food, service, and environment made everything BETTER!! The manager Sarah did a wonderful job making sure everything was running smoothly and our waiter, Victor who tended to all of our needs with no issues. I most certainly will be coming back and bringing more people.😊“

“Amazing food, brings me back to my childhood growing up in Singapore...all with the most friendly service imagineable.“

“The food was amazing, told ahead of time by the owner that she took the pictures of the food herself and what dishes took longer than others. Even with it just being the owner and her cousin service was amazing. Restaurant itself is beautifully decorated with my only complaint being the uncertainty chairs but it could also just be me. 😁“

“I am very picky with American Chinese food, but my visit to PF Chang’s last week was rather enjoyable. The food was good (I could drink the sweet chili dipping sauce!) and the service was great, especially from my waitress, Chelsea! She was able to offer suggestions for my visit last week and for my next visit in the future.“

“This place slaps! Delicious Northwest Chinese cuisine. Truly don’t understand why it isn’t a 5 stars. You cannot find Xian-style hand pulled noodles in Houston. I usually get the oil splashed noodles and add beef. It’s delicious. Make sure to mix it before you start eating. I’ve also had the roujiamao burger here as well as it is another well-known dish from this part of China. People that work here are super nice. I always strike up a convo here and there trying to convince them to franchise. Wish it was closer to downtown, but it’s kinda one of those iykyk places. Sometimes it’s better like that.“

“Taiwanese style food Quick bites“

“Food was excellent and highly recommend the soup dumplings. The waitress was so nice and even talked us through suggestions on the menu of which we got and enjoyed a lot. Pork spare ribs, pork belly, and sweet and sour chicken were all great and again the pork soup dumplings were amazing too!“

“A must try Sichuan place! If you like spicy asian food this is the place to go to! The service is so warm and inviting~ The food comes out in big portions and always fresh! Must try their dry pots, amazing crispy fish, and golden eggplant!! definitely recommend“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“⚠️OINK-O-RAMA⚠️ So much yummy variety of Bao; though closer to an open face version than the dumpling style many are accustomed too; Vivé la Différencē!
Saturday evening 10.27 & within an hour of closing I was nicely greeted and quickly served a Fish, the Korean Fried Chicken & the duck Bao.
Fish was the stand out, KFC was really good and absent the fish would be my face... the duck was delicious and had no obvious flaws but somehow felt less than the sum of its parts (?), still worth a go if fowl is your thing + very meaty.
RECOMMENDED!“

“Food was amazing, my kids didn’t waste any of it and neither did I. Chinese food has sucked since moving to Houston until I found this restaurant and they have a drive thru which is a double plus! We will definitely be back, and they accept card.“

“A Hidden Gem That Proves Why It’s One of the Top 3 Best Chinese Restaurants in Houston
Flavor House (味来人家) has been around for three years, and honestly, it has become my go-to whenever I crave traditional, authentic Chinese food. But recently, they leveled up with a brand-new seafood series that feels like a “Crawfish World” collided with Chinese flavors — and let me tell you, it’s something you simply cannot miss.

Instead of crawfish season, imagine feasting on fatty blue crab, jumbo Gulf shrimp, marinated cucumber, golden potatoes, and savory sausage — all drenched in their signature garlic sauce. Whoever came up with this combination is a genius. That cucumber soaks in the garlic flavor perfectly, and when you add the potatoes and sausage, every bite is addictive. I ordered the entire seafood platter in different flavors, and it was so good I’ve already gone back multiple times.

But here’s the real kicker: once you finish the platter, don’t stop. Toss some noodles straight into the leftover garlic sauce, and suddenly you’ve unlocked a whole new universe of flavor. Honestly, it might be the best bite in Houston.

And the classics? Still unbeatable.
• Triple Fried Chicken: crispy outside, juicy and tender inside — never greasy, always satisfying.
• Deep-Fried Pork Ribs: my first time trying this and I was blown away. How did no one tell me this dish was hiding here all along? It’s crunchy, flavorful, and ridiculously good.

So whether you’re a fan of crawfish boils with the whole shebang, or you’re ready to challenge yourself with some of the best traditional Chinese food in Houston, Flavor House is where you need to be. This place is not just a meal — it’s an experience that keeps pulling you back.

“Great food! Nice atmosphere.“

“Staffs are friendly. Mainly here for crawfish, really tasty, asked for 5 lb and get 5 lb. Enjoyed it.“

“Got the mapo tofu, sizzling seafood with black bean sauce, hot spicy chicken, rice noodles with beef satay sauce, salty fish chicken eggplant clay pot (without fish). The black bean sauce on the seafood was delicious, and the noodles were also very good. I'm used to Sichuan mapo tofu, but this mapo tofu was a pleasant change. Our waitress kindly told us the salty fish was too salty, so we just got the eggplant and chicken. The chicken was a little lacking in flavor, but the eggplant was delicious. Fast and great service overall. Would love to come back to try congee and other dishes. This was great food for a rainy day“

“The General Tso, Lo Mein and Kung Pao and Mongolian dishes are the best. I usually get chicken or beef. They give you a lot of meat... It's not all vegetables and sauce like some Chinese restaurants.

Both egg rolls and wonton soup are delicious.

I like the little fried chips they bring before your food comes. They pair well with the duck sauce.

Crab puffs are mostly cream cheese, but not bad.

Honestly, I'm not a fan of their fried rice. Next time I'll ask for white rice.

The service is outstanding. They bring the food out right away and they're so friendly. Also, you can't beat the price! Best value in town. We live in Chinatown but we drive all the way to Happy Lamp for Chinese food.“

“Excellent customer service. The staff is super friendly and accommodating.“

“We went to Fung's Kitchen tonight. The food was excellent, the staff was very friendly and attentive, and the decor was lovely. It was our first visit since the fire. It is definitely back on our list of favorite restaurants.“

“Be prepared to eat with your hands! Their food and service was so good that I think we’ll become regulars. We got their lunch buffet. This was the first buffet I’ve ever had where the servers come to your table directly to serve you food. It was my first time eating Indian food with my bare hands and honestly, it wasn’t so bad.“

“Northern Pasta in Houston is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic and comforting Northern Chinese flavors. The 豆腐花 (tofu pudding) was silky and lightly sweet — a perfect way to start or end the meal. Their dumplings are clearly handmade, with juicy fillings and nicely textured wrappers, and the noodles are fresh, chewy, and full of flavor.

Everything tasted homemade and satisfying. If you’re looking for simple, well-executed dishes that hit the spot, Northern Pasta is definitely worth a visit.“

“Drive thru service was fast & friendly. Shrimp fried rice was fresh, hot and flavorful. Plenty of onions and bean sprouts just the way I like it. Only thing it was missing was egg. House Lo Mein was good, my mom enjoyed it. Egg rolls were standard. And mongolian beef was good. Cant wait to return & try more items.“

“Very tasty dishes. Nice atmosphere. Great service.“

“We order from here regularly and it keeps getting better. Tonight we had chicken and vegetables, sweet and sour chicken, general's chicken, spring rolls and steamed dumplings. Everything was fresh and delicious. They have hired extra help too which is appreciated.“
