Update former review below:
01/23/25 I was served old, cold food today. I usually order their braised pork once a week, but after being closed due to the weather, they finally reopened today. Unfortunately, the braised pork was completely off—the texture was wrong, and it tasted strange. I also ordered the duck, which was equally bad. I returned the pork, and they replaced it with chicken, but that too was off.
While I understand the weather caused delays in reopening, it doesn’t excuse serving old meat to customers. This will be my last visit, as it’s clear they have no regard for their patrons.
Old Review to see how much the food was enjoyed:
The food at Siu Lap City is absolutely delicious. The duck, BBQ pork, and braised pork belly with duck eggs truly are delicious. The portions and pricing are an excellent deal; You get two meats, rice, and vegetables for a great value. The only downside is that they tend to run out of certain items on most days. Oh and your BBQ meats may not be hot, but room temperature.
The original owner and helpers left the store and it's now owned by a different group of people. I tried once after the orginal owners left. The food taste is not as good as before. However, it's still a good place to try siu lap with reasonable prices and acceptable food flavor.
I hate it when new owners take a place over and immediately cut corners, while raising the prices. You can see in the pictures that everything is dry, and the roast pork had no skin on it. bad enough i stopped mid meal to write this.

Definitely a hidden gem in Houston. The roasted pork belly is wonderful. One of the best I have in Houston and even better than that in my home country. The chiecken dip sauce is good too.

Bbq duck was good. Pork belly was better! Unbeatable value!
Food quality and taste went down substantially under new owner. Pork belly has mostly fat, skin is chewy. Roasted duck tastes plain, one of the most chewy roasted ducks I ever had. Sad, it’s used to be my favorite spot for quick lunch in midtown area.

Been eating this food for 12 years . New owners are no longer keeping the quality of the food . It’s no longer unique authentic Chinese food . Hopefully they realize this .

I don’t understand why they only have lettuce mix with carrots as a vegetables. What kind on Asian restaurants are you guys running? New management is terrible! Zero experience.

Did not know that they were under new management! Been going here for years and new owners are RUDE!! never had a problem with them giving me good portions on my order. They barely gave me anything. I'm guessing because of my ethnicity. I mentioned it to them and they just started talking in a different language amongst themselves. Place wasn't as packed as it usually is. Very underwhelming, I drove 30 mins for a plate I've been craving just to walk out with something that was not worth my money . Last time me going there . Time for me to find a new place to support. Literally got 5 shrimps and a handful of pork 👎🏽 NOT WORTH THE $15 i paid 😤

Disgusting food, fried rice is so hard you can chip a tooth. Customer service does not exist in this establishment.
