“The sesame chicken is some of the best I have had anywhere. It is delicious and crispy! I also think the service was excellent--I met the owner when he brought out my food and was as nice as could be. Will certainly be coming back next time I'm in town for work. Great for families too--highly recommend“

“Their beef soup is delicious.“

“I can’t believe I slept on Pei Wei for this long.

Stopped in recently and tried the Firecracker Tofu bowl and yeah… it did what it needed to do. The tofu was actually crispy (not that sad, soggy situation some places try to pass off), and the spice level had a nice kick without taking me out. I like heat, but I also like tasting my food — this was balanced.

I was pleasantly surprised by how many plant powered options they had. It didn’t feel like an afterthought. You can tell it’s actually part of the menu, not just “here’s plain vegetables, good luck.” I already have my eye on a couple other tofu bowls for next time.

The place was clean, service was easy and friendly, and everything came out quick. Solid experience all around. Definitely adding this into my rotation when I want something fast but still flavorful.

Grateful for solid plant powered options that don’t feel boring. 👏“

“I love this place so much. I often order online from it, but this restaurant is actually great for dine-in. It has a relaxing, cozy vibe, it's never too loud, so you can actually talk and hear each other. Also, small detail, but to me that changes a lot: they use very beautiful Chinese dishes and tea pots.“

“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.“

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

“I came here specifically for the dumplings and their signature fruit infused teas and I got to tell you after an hour and a half of stuffing my fat face. They did not disappoint ladies and gentlemen. They start off by bringing you a pitcher of lemon water and the holy trifecta which consists of soy sauce Chinese black vinegar and I'm talking about some legit chili oil 🪔 that you mix to your liking. Now I like my dipping sauce a little sweeter and since I'm not a complete barbaric animal by asking for sugar I asked for a little sweet and sour sauce and mixed in with my Trifecta blend. But that's just my preference. All the dumplings I tried were amazing and rightfully so. They have two sweet older Asian but intimidating looking women that are constantly filling and wrapping all types of dumplings. I have to admit the proficiency and ninja like skills with a knife of these two ladies was awe-inspiring.
Although my absolute favorite ones though were the shrimp and pork pan-fried dumplings. Because hello you had me at fried. They had the perfect combination of steamed on one side and fried to Golden perfection on the other. Oh and they definitely a 2 bite dumplings with copious amounts of filling. I will definitely be coming back eager to try the rest of their menu.“

“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 does not look like much from the street - but the food is incredible! There are many options, but we focused on the hand-pulled noodles and they did not disappoint. We split oil splashed noodles and the big platter chicken - but also tried some hot and sour soup and some dumplings. It was all very flavorful and had a good spice level. The portions are large. Prices are very reasonable.

We took an extra order of the oil splashed noodles home and fried them up with some eggs the next morning. This is a dish that reheats well. So good!

I'm not Chinese, but I felt this was highly authentic food. Service was great. We will be back.“

“Next time I'll take pictures... This is our local favorite! We usually do take out, but we recently ate there in the restaurant - and yes, it smells just as amazing as you're imagining. We've had several dishes, and they're all delicious.
Go. Eat. Enjoy. Rejoice in your leftovers. Don't forget to take pictures!“

“This place is amazing. The food here is so very good, I have only been twice, but I definitely need to go more often. My family has been with me both times, so we tried a pretty wide variety of menu items. Everything was delicious! Service is prompt and friendly. The prices seem very reasonable.“

“Very delicious and tasty food! Service was very nice! !“

“This has been on my list of want to go to Houston restaurants for ages, and after finally going today I’m sad I didn’t go earlier. Food was delicious (soup dumplings and tofu skin wrap) and the staff were really nice. A really rude Karen type customer came in while I was eating and I was impressed by how pleasant the staff were to her. I wouldn’t have had the patience for a customer like that (I guess that’s why I don’t own a restaurant), but they were great. Excited to return and try other dishes!“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“Jay was prompt with food service, Raven was accommodating with orders sent to the kitchen and Kayla was the sweetest with explaining food items - being considerate with dietary restrictions and encouraging to try out new things on the menu. Overall, great food, good atmosphere and an amazing team!“

“Best family place to go eat dinner, highly recommended, my kids love it“

“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.“

“I have been ordering from Happy Lamp for 20+ years. Our company orders from Happy Lamp almost every Friday for lunch. The prices are reasonable and the food is always hot and fresh. The owners are welcoming and always have smiles on their faces when I walk through the door. I love being able to support a family-owned business that has been a staple in our community for decades.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

“Food was very good! We got ours delivered and everything came hot and nicely packed. We had beef and broccoli and tso chicken with a side of lo mein. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I have really fallen in love with this place! The food is great! Customer service is exceptional. Clean and friendly environment and very cute decor. I have recently been hooked on the sweet and sour chicken because the sauce is great but the chicken is very tasteful and has the perfect crunch. Egg drop soup is one of a kind! Egg rolls and cheese puffs are super scrumptious. Tea is good! Rice may look a little different but is actually really really good. I truely feel like a valued customer when I come.“

“The best orange chicken EVER! Idk how they do it but it is consistently delicious and flavorful. I’ve been going to this place before they were even at this location, maybe 20 years or more. I have not found a better kung pao chicken or orange chicken anywhere else! Every time I’m in Houston I have to have their orange chicken. 🍊 🐓 very kind family as well. God bless this family and their restaurant, I hope it keeps going strong“

“Great dinner at Jiu Fu Cafe. The beef chow fun was perfectly cooked with tender beef and great flavor, not greasy at all. The stir fried shrimp with black pepper was crispy, fresh, and delicious. Service was quick and the atmosphere was clean and comfortable. Will definitely come back“

“A couple of years ago, there was restaurant food and there was food truck food. The places on wheels somehow had more boldness to make wacky stuff that didn’t seem like it should go together, but once I’d bite into it, I was like YESS!

Fat Bao is that same formula but with a bathroom and no wheels.

All kinds of weird flavor combos that seem unfitting until you try. I’m convinced that every one of their little baos are fire because I didn’t have a single bite that disappointed. The onion rings were unreal too.

Great/quick service, and the atmosphere was good too.

I’ll be back like the Terminator.

So good.“

“This is my favorite place to eat Chinese for the past year. Unbeatable prices and huge portions. Every time I go, it's full of Hispanics. They know the best deal in town and so do I! I always get their mushroom chicken which comes with plenty of spinach and meat. Huge portions. No need to tip as they usually have tip built in.“

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