48 Best Chinese Restaurants near South Houston

“This has to have the best service. Love this location and have been going for decades. The food is always fresh, especially on weekends but best of all are the servers. I have to say im a bit forgetful and often misplace my phone but usually when I go back to where I lost it..I dont get it back. Just today I forgot my phone, and the staff and owner helped me out. I ended up finding it later and everyone was relieved.“

“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.“

“Great food, great service!“

“We rarely go to the Cafe, but order delivery.
We've ordered from JB's for over 13 years. Never had an issue!!! Never had bad food or bad service or an issue with the prices.
The staff is super friendly! The delivery lady has practically watched my kids grow up lol

I only wish they were open on Tuesdays, seems I crave their food on Tuesdays more than not. But definitely a fantastic option for a simple clean China take out. Highly recommend“

“We tired Pei Wei to cater our daughter's wedding. We received so many compliments and people were amazed that we had actually used Pei Wei to cater a wedding. Any of our guests said they would have never thought of Pei Wei but it was perfect for our event and our theme. The food was delicious but most of all the people at Pei Wei are top notch. After getting started with Marc Anthony, Sara took over and she was amazing. She went way above and beyond what I expected. She even offered to go buy drinks for us because we had forgot to add them to our order. She was amazing in thought of everything. If I have another large event I will definitely use Pei Wei again.“

“Love China Garden! Food is excellent!“

“This was my first time every at P.F. Chang's. My friend suggested this place and it was up to par. It took service to a whole new level. Cooper was phenomenal, on top of it and always available. We order two seasonal cocktails, the cranberry one and the apple cider one both were incredibly smooth and full. Now the food was something else. We got the three course lunch special, edamame, hot and sour soup, house salad, beef lo mien, chicken fried rice, I love some good Asian cuisine this took the cake in all areas. Talking about cake, the Gooey butter cake, it was truly the best cake I have very had. High recommend it to any, even if its only seasonal. I think what blew my mind the most was when he asked if we needed a Togo box, came back and boxed my food for me. 10/10 great experience!“

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

“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.“

“Food is delicious!

*2026
Ive been coming here for almost 10 years and the food never fails to impress me. Always so flavorful and very affordable. Yesterday was my first time dining in for my dad's birthday and it didn't disappoint. Plates were overflowing with food, staff were very friendly and attentive. Love it! If you've never tried their food it is a must.“

“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.“

“Ordered yesterday for the first time. Absolutely wonderful. I can’t believe I haven’t heard of this place before now. The Mongolian beef was excellent. The orange chicken and general taos chicken were amazing too. Very cheap prices. We all had egg drop or wonton soup and the taste was exactly how it’s suppose to be. We’ve tried so many places and you can tell when something is fresh or made with cheap Ingredients, this place rocks. We will definitely try to spread the word. Way to go you guys.“

“The food here is delicious that you will be back to try more dishes. Passing thru but when we do we stop here it's the best. The cook is the artist here, delicious for sure!“

“Clean. Remodeled December 2021. Ample parking. Great food. Friendly and caring staff.“

“We went 6/24/22 for lunch. The food & service was outstanding. The food was fresh and wonderful. The service couldn't have been better. Definitely plan on your back.“

“The best place to eat a delicious Chinese food, the people who serve it are very beautiful and friendly, you eat well, they serve you well and also cheap and the soup they sell (Vegetable Soup) 100% recommended for 10 years I have been attending with my Family for what a good restaurant it is.“

“I ordered a pepper steak dinner and chicken wings. The food is authentic and beyond full of flavor. I can't even begin to tell you how this food just made my heart warm. To be in Houston and only have panda express and no real CHINESE food... Man boy oh boy 😂 I'm happy to have found Linda & Christina!!! That is a family that knows them pots.“

“The Food comes out fast , the food is always hot temp but I prefer it that way.Its a family business they are very polite but the place is small but still a very comfortable place to enjoy good food . I do take my own silverware bc there's is flimsy and cheap napkins and extra soy sauce bc they are stingy with the extras .“

“The customer service, food quality, and food portions are all exceptional. The dine-in area is very cozy, clean, and it feels very community like. We have found our new favorite Chinese Cafe. We are genuinely impressed and completely pleased with our experience. 💯👍🫶“

“I normally don't do this but I was not happy about my 6 piece wings on yesterday very dried, half cooked, and not season to taste. Which have not been my regular experience throughout the years. So on that note it was pack and the line around the corner. I guess by time they got to my order something happened. I will come back but I will check my food before I leave. Just in case we need to correct the problem.“

“The mango chicken in garlic sauce is a must try!! Wings crispy outside juicy inside. Spring Rolls (WOW)
Everyday they have a lunch special over 20 different plates at least from 11am - 3pm (if I'm not mistaken)
10/10 - 888 Bistro“

“What a delightful find! This unpretentious little restaurant really surprised us. First impression: Clean as a whistle, big menu, exceptional prices, friendly and helpful staff. We had s/s pork, human beef, shrimp lo mein, fried rice and eggrolls. Yum to all. Delicious traditional prep, huge portions. We took home twice what we ate. Atmosphere OK, tables and chairs, order at the counter. When you go WOK right in and tell John we sent you.“

“One thing for sure, you cannot beat their prices oh my goodness made me happy to eat there... great egg roll like the old fashioned stuffed with meet delicious!!!! And I saw on the menu egg foo young for only 13.95 way cheaper than what I've seen it.. I called the restaurant and I was stuck in traffic GPS went nuts couldn't get there and I asked her is the lunch menu still on she said don't worry I'll give you the lunch menu price I mean I could not ask for a better experience!!!!!“

“This is a pleasant location for enjoying well-executed bao and dumplings. The dishes are thoughtfully prepared and deliver clean, satisfying flavors. Overall, the experience is solid and enjoyable, making it a worthwhile stop for tasteful bites.“

“Ive came in a few times to order some food and I was waited on by marren and karen, but both times I was waited on I didn’t receive good service, the servers both time I was there were lousy and not really wanting to do their job both time I was there. I honestly dont want to come back and eat because of my experience because marren and Karen.“

“Small, unassuming, mom and pop shop. The place was a little dark when we stepped in. You can tell it's family owned. Everyone was nice and friendly. They have Chinese and Vietnamese food options. I was craving bbq ribs so ordered Chinese dishes. My suggestion is to order anything lo mein. Really good. Their prices are very reasonable. If you don't care about fancy flair and fluff, this is the place to come eat. Food is affordable, tasty, and fills your belly. Note: watch out for the chili 🌶️ sign. If it says spicy, it is SPICY.“

“Star Chef has a variety of dumplings you can order. They have steamed (vegetable, pork, or chicken), pan fried pork, and deep fried pork or chicken. ThI've tried all of the ones that Star Chef has and enjoy each one. You can get a mixed dozen for $9.99 plus tax but it's a good portion. They also have an excellent WonTon soup! Their customer service is impeccable and they go out of their way to make sure you have a good experience each and every time.“

“First time eating here I ordered take out pretty large order it was fast also. I love egg drop soup and they did not disappoint. I absolutely loved this place. It's hard to find good Chinese Food in the City. Definitely will return. The ladies at the register were nice also“

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

“10 out of 10. Stayed open during Hurricane Beryl. Was only place to get food while power was out. I would Recommend! Food was also very good. As a truck driver it's already difficult to get good food but while everything else was closed including the loves truck stop convenice store it was only option to eat and use bathroom.“

“Delivery on point, I messed up my own order so they redelivered again no problem. Suprer fast and food is great for the price nothing fancy just cheap Chinese that hits the spot!! Fried rice on point!! Food always packed correctly and securely!! Egg rolls rock also!!“

“Inexpensive Chinese food. If this is something you enjoy, China Ocean will not disappoint. Egg rolls are good, and their green beans were great. I had orange chicken, it was good. Service was fast and friendly. There's a lot of places to eat in the downtown underground, and this one is decent enough to eat at more than once. Not impressive enough for five stars, but it is good.“

“Their food has always been good.“

“I've been a fan since 1998. I got turned on to the wings and rice by a friend back then. The food has been consistent and I visit the establishment at least twice month for Lunch. The facility is clean. The food is fairly priced. I do move around the menu a bit. I recommend the pepper steak with white rice. I also recommend the boudin balls.“

“Had this delivered so I am not sure about the restaurant. The meals and soups were a nice portion. The Beef and Bell pepper was great. Sesame Chicken was bland but not bad. Wonton soup has shredded cabbage but not a real strong flavor. Egg drop soup wasn’t bad. Fried rice has a great smoky flavor. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and it was reasonably priced.“

“I come here all the time food is always good, hot and fresh. Not to mention they provide you with a lot of food, works out great to bring for lunch the next day. So bring a date, friend(s), your kids or by yourself I promise you won't be disappointed. Hope to see you there

Thank you Wok D'Lite“

“Exceptional food taste and quality! The service also exceeded expectations. 100% recommend this restaurant.“

“Food taste pretty good but the service is a little slow.“

“Yang's kitchen has great food and outstanding takeout service. I did read a bunch of poor reviews, but after eating the food Im taking them as the person having a bad day. The orange chicken was hot and delicious, spicy chicken wings were out of this world!!! Cool way to separate yourselfs from the others was the wheat fortune cookie. :) Overall I cannot complain bout anything I will be returning. Keep up the hard work!!“

“Timmy Chans Restaurant In Houston Tx.“

“Great atmosphere enjoyed the music it was live!“

“Definitely one of our favorite buffets ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We’ve been living here for 10 years, and we always come back. The atmosphere is welcoming and family-friendly, the service is always attentive and kind, and the food… delicious.

The variety they offer is amazing, and the flavor never disappoints. There’s always something new to try, and everything tastes fresh and well prepared.

A place we’ll continue coming back to and highly recommend 🤍✨“

“5 stars for exceeding my expectations.This is my 2nd visit. Small place hidden inside the tunnel. The first time, I came here for lunch a few weeks ago and ordered the Vermicelli with Chicken. It was good. Portion was great and the char grilled chicken was awesome. Nothing bad to say about it except that I wish it would in a bowl.This my first time trying the Pho here and I am seriously surprised. I came in with low expectations but the broth is as good as some other places in Houston.Broth was flavorful and not bland. Noodles were not overcooked. I ordered the beef, and it came out to be a combination, like the dac biet at other restaurants. Good portion of different meats and it didn't taste old or rubbery. Overall, great lunch spot for Vietnamese food.“

“Great dining experience! Staff very helpful and informative, delicious food!“

“I went to eat dumplings here once when I was little and didn’t remember the places name after I was so sad and had been looking for this place for a long time and finally found it I would say it was worth the wait can’t wait to eat there dumplings again“

“Maybe not the most exquisite but what I have had here has always been great.

Now I haven't lived in the area for a good while, not even the state to be honest, but I'm coming back and I will be stopping in here as soon as I can.“

“I stopped by a little bit after 11AM for a 2 meat 1 side plate and drive thru man was patient while I ordered , food was all super fresh only the chicken breast and green beans could have been hotter like my orange chicken was. I used my 20 percent off my order by downloading the app so I paid only $8 something“

“I have dined in twice and ordered via delivery twice. Good service but a little slow. The food was good and taste fresh. When ordering this evening, my experience was not so great. I ordered the crispy shrimp walnut entree which was hit and miss with sauce on the mainly breaded shrimps not enough sauce especially on the bottom . NOTE: There plenty of walnuts pieces on the dish. Also,I ordered the crispy fish pieces which were good but the container was not ventilated to prevent moist fish. I think I will stick with the dine in experience and not do take out. Overall, I do like this food and restaurant.“
