“I just visited Duck N Bao and I’m in love with their food and service!“

“I just visited Duck N Bao and I’m in love with their food and service!“

“Very fast service and super friendly severs.Food are freshly made and so good. ❤️❤️❤️“

“We LOVE this place. Especially the Xiao Long Bao and the Braised pork. I’m always surprised there’s not more people there.

The servers are so nice and literally everything we’ve ordered has been so solid.

I recommend this place to everyone.“

“Good value for quality food“

“The food is good, but be prepared for a long wait during busy weekends.
I visited on Juneteenth Saturday (June 21) and arrived at 9:50 a.m. It took 15 minutes just to place my order, and another 25 minutes before my food was served. There were only two staff working—one managing the front and prepping delivery orders, and one serving the dining area.

The restaurant seems seriously understaffed during peak hours, and the service flow could use improvement. From what I observed, they tend to fully prepare and serve all items for one group before moving on to the next. A more efficient approach would be to prepare and serve items in smaller batches, rotating between groups in the order of arrival, rather than completing one group’s entire order before even starting the next.

Overall, I’d recommend the food, but only if you’re not in a rush and are visiting during off-peak hours.“

“We’ve visited this restaurant every time my in laws are in town. It’s ours and their favorite place to eat.“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“Delicious food and valued pricing.“

“After driving for 14 hours, this restaurant was the perfect escape from the car and Houston traffic! Everything was so delicious and as we complimented everything placed in front of us, the server recommended we try the cabbage and ginger (which came with the meal), and it made the meal so much better. We had a wonderful experience there and had some of the best dumplings, potstickers, and bao of all time!“

“The duck was incredibly fatty, the skin crispy, and the pancake thin— that is to say, the peking duck is comparable to those in Beijing. Everything was amazing, and the service was wonderful. We enjoyed ourselves, and we are looking forward to returning soon.“

“Quality sashimi and sushi rolls“

“Food is 🔥🔥 definitely going back again“

“best roast duck anywhere. I have been eating their wonderful food since I was 10 years old, I'm 60 now!“

“I loved the fact they serve keto options like cauliflower rice and salads. It was my first visit ever & I will definitely return! I even got a salad to go for lunch at work tomorrow.“

“You know it’s good Chinese food when most customers are Chinese!!!
We went on a weekday for dinner and there were plenty of seats but it soon started filling up.

What we ordered:
- grilled egg plant - I could eat two plates of these!
- grilled bun
- lamb skewers
- grilled whole corn

They were all cooked very well with plenty of seasoning, and as someone who grew up in Beijing and ate a lot of skewers, these are legit! The only complaint would be that there were some fascia in the lamb skewers, but it was still pretty good. Very attentive staffs as well. Their other dishes looked great as well. Will come back!

Note, you might want to ask for it to be extra spicy if you’re used to having them“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Great food and service. Would definitely eat here again, when in Houston“

“We celebrated our wedding anniversary at this restaurant and had the best experience! The food and drinks were super delicious, and everything was just perfect.

A big thank you to our server Phil, he was amazing! So friendly, attentive, and made us feel really special the whole night.

Thank you, Phil, for your excellent service and for making our anniversary unforgettable.“

“SUPER delicious gem! We ate inside and the server was really nice and great at making sure we had everything we needed. The food is OUTSTANDING - not to be missed! And definitely check out their lunch specials - one of the more reasonably priced deals!“

“My god, best Chinese food in town. Went to try it for the first time on Friday and came back Saturday for seconds. The beef they use in their dishes is very tender and beautifully marbled. So glad I was recommended this place. Saves me a trip to bellaire or Katy Asia town.“

“Their beef soup is delicious.“

“muchas gracias por su atención, es excelente el servicio y muy rica la comida y se puede pasar una rato muy agradable con la familia y amigos.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“The best combination of Chinese-American food and authentic Chinese cuisine. Nothing fancy, if you want atmosphere this is not the place. If you want truly delicious food, it’s one of the hidden gems near Sugar Land. Big portions and big flavor like when I was growing up.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“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 order from this place often and food is always good and hot when delivered. Last order was set up for pickup and I didn’t realize it until I completed my order, I called the restaurant to ask if they could deliver my order instead and they said no problem.“

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

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

“Very fast service and super friendly severs.Food are freshly made and so good. ❤️❤️❤️“

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

“The Pork Xiao Long Bao was great. The beef noodle soup was delicious, meat was a little fatty but part of how the broth gets a good flavor. The Dan Dan noodles were not as traditionally served (I'm told) but tasty. The pan-fried dumplings were not traditionally fried, they were on a layer of dough that was fried with the dumplings cooked into the dough- not as good as traditional pan-fried dumplings.
A good number of additional items on the menu for those more daring.
Service was highly attentive.
The ambience was open and nice.
I expect to be back to the Dough Zone.

Parking: Parking lot and many restaurants and stores are part of the builidng.“

“Definitely one of those restaurants where you question a lot about things due to the location but it's one of the places where the food pretty much wins you over faster than the environment. They give you good servings/portions for what you pay for. All in all it's good food, I recommend take out or drive thru. It's not a place I'd would dine in again but the staff was nice so I couldn't complain too much.“

“I had a private sampling in Dallas, so in love! I really hope y’all open a location here soon!! BRING YO BAOs!“

“Wow this was my first time ordering from this restaurant and I am so impressed! Impressed with how delicious their roast duck and salted oven shrimp were. The shrimp is jumbo sized and so flavorful. The duck was just the way I like it, crispy skin and soft on the inside. The sauce that comes with it, tops it off! The lady who took my order was so welcoming and so sweet. I love her!! I will definitely be back next time I’m in Houston! Thank you!!“

“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.“

“Love China Garden! Food is excellent!“

“The food 🍱 is very good 😊“

“food was amazing, I had the cabbage bowl. When I say this young lady I mean Chef Michelle is an amazing cook everything is made with love. She ask you your spice level also is patient with you if its your first time I will be back tomorrow. Prices are not inflated and food is the best of quality.

Dietary restrictions: She explain to me that the cabbage bowl could be vegan or non vegan. Great options

Parking: 11117 south post oak rd.“

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

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

“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. 😁“

“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“

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

“A Culinary Gem in Houston – Desi Junction Indian Cuisine

If you’re on the hunt for authentic and flavorful Indian cuisine in Houston, look no further than Desi Junction Indian Cuisine. This place truly stands out for its exceptional food, stellar service, and attention to quality.

From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant ambiance that sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. The menu offers an impressive variety of dishes, each prepared with care and bursting with the rich, authentic flavors that define Indian cuisine.

One of the highlights of my visit was the pani puri and dosa, both served just like the iconic street food in India. The pani puri was crisp and tangy, with perfectly spiced water and fillings that transported me straight to the bustling streets of Mumbai. The dosa was golden, crispy, and paired with chutneys and sambar that tasted like home. These dishes alone make Desi Junction a must-visit for anyone craving the true essence of Indian street food.

What truly impressed me was the attention to detail—every dish felt like a masterpiece, made with fresh ingredients and an evident passion for cooking. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, ready to guide you through the menu and ensure your meal was perfect from start to finish.

Desi Junction isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of Indian culture and cuisine. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a one-of-a-kind dining experience in Houston. It’s a place I’ll return to again and again!“

“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.“
