Zeros all around. Intimidating staff. Team thats afraid to talk to eachnother. Wok water running full blast for the 25 mins i was there i said yall need to shut the water off when your not cleaning the woks. She said she doesnt want to get yelled at. I said chef thw food looks amazing then He stared at me with no smile or anything but depressed or nothing i couldnt tell, full blast water even half blast is 150 dollars a day in water waste or more. 4 to 5 k a week in water waste. Owners an idiot

Good to satisfy your hunger if you are in a hurry to board. Nothing special but not bad either. The airport has better options, but they take longer.

Disgusting! I wish I had read the reviews and followed my first mind to leave that less than a meal plate at the register. $16.99 for rice veggies and because I added a veggie spring roll it somehow made it a meal. ?They added more of the day old veggies to maybe appease me but NO. And yes. Like the other recent review. It was COLD! A total waste of money and time and food because that garbage went to THE GARBAGE! do better!

I like takeout Chinese food and I lean towards Asian food most of the time. However, I was running late for my flight at Houston Airport and there weren't a whole bunch of choices. I asked about Asian takeout and I was told that there was this Chinese place called Pick Up Sticks but it wasn't very good. I thought how bad could Chinese takeout be? Apparently it can be really subpar and expensive at an airport. You had a choice of noodles or rice but no vegetable substitute. The vegetables were considered an entree and the only thing that looked not overcooked was the teriyaki chicken. So that's what I got, extremely dry fried rice, really overcooked string beans, and some teriyaki chicken that I don't even think is a Chinese thing but it was okay for grab and go. The plate in the picture was something like $16.23. Only go there as a last resort. I don't say this often but I really do not recommend this place. I think a cold turkey sandwich would have been better.

Never again…just go to Panda. Even with a discount 1 item 1 side is $13.34, shrimp is extra but nowhere on signage/menu does it say that. Worker was pretty stingy and another said “without discount it’ll be like $16.” We’re still in Texas right? This Pick Up Stix has California price, and half the portion.

The employees lied about the price of the food. The guy taking our order has two air pods in and wasn't listening. I had to repeat my questions three times. The food was greasy, oily, and poorly cooked.Do not eat here.

I got white rice, green beans, and mixed veggies from here, and I promise you, they gave me FOOD POISONING! I was super hungry after a long day of travel, so I scarfed my food down and then realized that it wasn't even HOT! About 30-45 minutes later, it hit me, and I was very ill for the next 24 hours. BEWARE. They also don't have ANY gluten free, vegetarian protein options. Don't do it!

If you want cheap with tiny baby portions.. go here. The employees almost giggle with how small their portions are. Wish they had a little more pride in what they are serving. The fried rice wouldve been plenty for my 6lb weiner dog.
The food at this place was just terrible to be honest. I ordered spring rolls, steamed vegetables, fried rice and orange chicken. The spring rolls tasted very strange (old oil? Not sure.), the steamed veggies were more like boiled veggies with a weird seasoning. The fried rice and chicken were just OK. Very disappointing. Especially for airport pricing...

If you can avoid and warn people, I would. Tried to not spend too much and Wendy has a big line.. huuuuuge mistake. Worst food ever, worse than the airplane food, I regret not going to Terminal B and having Panda Express. Any other option seems to be better, even snacks on Starbucks would be better. Besides, dunno how much they pay for the workers but I feel sorry for them. It is an international airport for God's sake.

I actually ate here to try what a 2.3 star Asian restaurant would taste like. The reviews are spot on. Cost is outrageous, service poor, food just ok.

The only reason why I’m not giving this place one star is because the food was SOMEWHAT good. But I couldn’t really enjoy it much because they barely gave us any food to eat. And when we asked them to give us more, they gave us dirty looks. Three meals (I wouldn’t even call them meals) cost $50! Which is insane! We haven’t gone on our flight yet, but I’m nervous seeing these reviews that some people got sick! Please do not eat here. The food does taste somewhat good, but you don’t get what you paid for, and the staff is rude.
