50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Houston

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

“One Dragon is my new favorite Chinese spot! Seriously, everything I ordered was amazing. I got the tofu skin wrap, xiu long bao (soup dumplings!), fried buns, and fried shrimp – and it was all so authentic and delicious. You can tell they really know what they're doing. Plus, the staff was super friendly, and the prices are a steal! If you're looking for real, high-quality Chinese food without breaking the bank, One Dragon is a must-try.“

“Loved all the food we ordered. Crispy Talapia Dumplings Crispy Egg Noodles The service was great!“

“Good value for quality food“

“Food was good for a quick bite. The XLB was one of my favorites. Surprisingly the chicken and vegetable wontons in chili oil were surprisingly the best. The Thai tea was delicious. I’d skip the noodles I got in the photos. They were mid. The cucumbers were nicely presented and delicious. The staff were friendly and kept checking on us. Will be back as this is closer and just as good as bellaire.“

“todo buenísimo y servicio excelente“

“We enjoyed the abundant portion of food. The taste was nice, spice level was just right. The price was very decent considering everything went through an inflation these days. Of course don’t expect the same level of coziness or proactive service as an upscale diner, since we know what we paid for.“

“Crazy good food, to go only, currently.“

“Food is 🔥🔥 definitely going back again“

“We were a little hesitant when we read the reviews. But after we tried we really liked the food. We ordered peking duck and other traditional Chinese dishes. They are all very tasty. Fried Pork In Scoop (Crispy Sliced Pork In Sweet & Sour Sauce) 锅包肉is the most authentic one I have ever had in US. Peking duck is authentic too. And I like the Sauteed Pork Shreds W/ Sweet Bean Paste 京酱肉丝 although my friend said the authentic version should come with a different type of pancake wrap. But it is also delicious with the pancakes they provided and the taste is traditional Chinese flavor.“

“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“

“Great service n great food!“

“Was there for a weekday lunch with my aunt. We enjoyed every dish we tried. The tempura shrimp was battered and fried perfectly. The Philadelphia sushi roll was delicious. The beef broccoli lunch special was seasoned well, with good flavor. The steamed dumplings were superb. The service was quick and attentive. They also offer takeout. I will definitely return to try more dishes.“

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

“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.“

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

“Overview: great service, good atmosphere, average food. Too pricy for the quality in my mind.

Went for a business lunch. Service was excellent, food was average for the price. I got the sesame chicken lunch plate. The chicken was too salty and the peppers I thought didn’t fit with the dish. The egg drop soup was really thick which I didn’t care for. The gyoza appetizers were okay but the sauce was spicy without much flavor. I have had better food at other PF Chang’s locations but not sure if, in general, food quality has decreased over the years or if it’s just the lunch quality.

It appeared there were lots of business lunches. It was a little crowded but not uncomfortable. They sat us at a table that was hard to get out of to get to the bathroom. Otherwise, atmosphere was good.“

“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.“

“Delicious food and the most friendly and attentive staff. We visited twice in 4 days. Mapo Tofu was incredibly tasty as was the sweet-and-sour pork and a shrimp dish. Staff is super friendly and attentive. If you want to experience top notch Mandarin cuisine then do yourself a favor and visit North China. ♥️“

“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.“

“Their beef soup is delicious.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Hunan King is absolutely delicious! Their food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The General Tso’s Chicken is crispy and just the right amount of spicy, and their lo mein is packed with savory goodness. The service is fast and friendly, and the portions are generous for the price. I’ve never been disappointed with any dish I’ve tried. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, Hunan King never misses. It’s hands-down my favorite spot for Chinese food in town!“

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

“Absolutely incredible hole in the wall spot. The sautéed mixed vegetables was actually my favorite dish here. There was a good assortment of all my favorite veggies, and the sauce that it was cooked with was so savory and delicious. The pepper beef was cooked well and packed with incredible flavors from the bell peppers. As for the chili oil noodles, I’m very picky about them because some places can easily make them too greasy, sweet, sour, or salty… but the sauce was perfectly balanced in all aspects. The noodles had a wonderful bite to them, but I think it was more like one long noodle so be prepared to slurp and bite… I will definitely be coming back to try more dishes as I think I’ve found a new favorite!“

“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.“

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

“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 duck blood and vermicelli soup in this restaurant is the most authentic in Houston! The soup was delicious, the duck blood was tender and smooth, and the vermicelli had a very chewy texture. Our family of five ate every drop. The lamb chops are definitely the highlight. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The aroma is fragrant. The seasonings are just right. Every piece is very delicious. Taste of hometown??“

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

“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.“

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

“This is our usual Chinese ? takeout, despite being 30 mins away — because authentic Sichuan cuisine is hard to find esp at this price.

Family-run kitchen = good quality every time we pick up.

Watch the Anthony Bourdain episode ? on Chengdu ?? if you want to find the best dishes ?️ to order

Vegetarian options: Authentic Sichuan potato dish in addition to traditional Chinese vegetable offerings“

“The food 🍱 is very good 😊“

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

“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!!“

“Love China Garden! Food is excellent!“

“I saw this restaurant on TikTok and decided to give it a try.I made an order in advance and arrived my food was not ready but it was ok since I notice they had a lot of persons in the restaurant at the time . I must say this is by far the best Chinese food I’ve tasted in a while and it was worth the wait time . Only thing I would recommend is a better location, not too happy about the area in which it is located . Otherwise everything was amazing , friendly staff and the owners was actively assisting with the orders . I love it there !!! Highly recommend“

“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.“

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

“amazing service i love this“

“The service and ambiance were what you’d expect from a traditional Chinese restaurant, but the food truly stood out. The duck was incredibly tender and flavorful, perfectly seasoned without being overly salty. The marinated delights combination was exceptional—each item was packed with rich, authentic flavors. If you’re a fan of Teochew cuisine, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

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

“Great food! Nice atmosphere.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Went here with my cousin today, the food was absolutely delicious. The portions were very generous! You start with a chicken dish (we got medium spice/size) and it was more than enough for two people to share. The flavor was phenomenal. I particularly liked the onions. After you finish your first dish, they come by and fill your bowl with chicken broth, turning it into a delicious hot pot. All sides you can add on are generous as well. Overall, wonderful experience. We will be coming back for sure!“
