    Kung poa chicken lunch
    Daniela A.

    Amazing quality and portions are filling. Their lunch specials come with soup and your choice of egg roll or Rangoon. Really good food and service

    Crab Rangoon

    Although lunchtime brings a packed house, IMO, the food was just ok. I ordered the Orange Chicken lunch special and will not get it again. The portion was plentiful but the taste was disappointing. There was lots of orange rind in the sauce and a good deal of a salty ingredient. It came with soup, rice, and a Crab Rangoon. The rangoons were delicious but the rice was super bland. Fortunately, their menu is large so options abound.

    Nope. Unfortunately, this was not up my alley. Very sketchy location but that never turns me away. While I was ordering at the drive thru a homeless person was knocking at my window asking for $$. There was another one sleeping on the back porch. I think I ordered wrong but I had the Kung Pao chicken and did not like it at all. The rice has a weird flavor, the egg drop soup had barely no egg. I did not like it. The egg roll was okay. The lady at the window was nice.

    Are here for the first time a couple of nights ago. Solid choice for Chinese food…read more The restaurant was not crowded in a Sunday evening and the service was good. The portion sizes were very good - as you can see by the pictures. I ordered the spicy combo, and ordered it extra spicy - maybe a language barrier, but I think they took the spice away as it had no heat at all. The chicken portions were HUGE and the bowl of soup was plenty large for four people to share. Will definitely be back!!

    Still one of the best options for Chinese on the far north side/Stone Oak area! We've tried nearly…read moreALL the Chinese restaurants in this part of town, and T Jin's is the most consistent in value, flavor, and service. We tried some new-to-us dishes recently and generally found them to be very good. Orange Chicken was not overly battered, big chunks of white chicken meat, not too saucy and just a hint of spice. Real orange peel, too, which makes all the difference! We also ordered the Spicy Combination with beef, chicken, and shrimp. Carrots, peppers, bamboo in the dish provided a bit of veggie balance. Not our most favorite, but still very good. As per usual, we started with steamed dumplings and crab puffs; DH added a cup of egg drop soup- this place serves his favorite egg drop soup. Everything was delicious. I always ask for chili oil for that extra added kick! I do wish that the dishes labeled "spicy" were actually spicy. They really aren't spicy at all. Don't let the little pepper symbol deter you. Always clean, always prompt, always good!

The staff is super friendly and courteous :) ! We usually order the beef vermicelli soup, and a variety of dumplings :D ! They serve our food pretty promptly, with the soup still hot and tasty, and the dumplings steamy and savory :D ! My sister doesn't eat pork. So she typically orders dumplings that don't contain pork. I eat all kinds of meat. So I always order the pork and chive dumplings :D ! Whether you come in on a weekday or weekend, it always helps to come early if you can! If we want to go there for lunch, we try to get there as close to 11 am as possible when they first open. As it gets closer to 12 noon, it starts to get really busy, and it's harder and trickier for the staff to seat you. There is both booth and table seating. It's a great restaurant to catch up with friends, family or even colleagues over a good meal :) ! The parking lot out in front is a pretty decent size. But it can fill up pretty quickly when it gets busy! We also love ordering frozen dumplings to go :D ! For sure, we will definitely come back :D ! Kung Fu Noodle never disappoints :) !

    Impressed is the right word for my experience!…read more Price point for the combination meals are amazing and portions are generous! I got the beef noodle soup with pork and chive steamed dumplings combination that comes with tea or soda. With tax, this is all under $20. The soup was better than what I've had in San Antonio and noodles were not too doughy with lots of beef. Pork chive dumplings were delicious! Staff was friendlier than other places that are asian own:). Casual place to eat with friends for great bowl of noodles and dumplings! I would come back to try other items off their menu. They have skewers as well!

    Wah Kee remains my go to for comfort Chinese food. After having spent years faithfully going to the…read moresame Chinese restaurant because it was close to my house and not realizing that the food quality had gone down remarkably, we decided to try a different place and here we are. It's been about a year or so since we've been coming here fairly regularly and I really cannot complain about anything specific. Most meals are excellent with a I miss now and then, but overall, I would never complain about that. The price of their meals seem to be stuck in a world without crazy tyrant leaders, and inflation out the roof, though I don't know for how much longer that will remain. Wah Kee! Stay true to who you are and you'll always have happy people coming back to you!

    Everyone raves about Wah Kee in this part of town and, since it had been many years since we'd been…read morethere, we decided to give it a try for lunch in case things had gotten better during that break. We noticed the decor had changed (yes, I said it had been many years) and it was quite nice! We were seated promptly and placed our drink order (tea came with lunch). We ordered Rangoon as a starter. The lunch specials came with soup and egg roll, and fried rice. DH ordered his litmus test dish for American style Chinese- General Tso chicken. The portion was generous. The sauce was tasty. The chicken pieces tasted like your average frozen nuggets tossed in sauce. It's that familiar "seasoning" to the chicken and coating- iykyk. Not bad at all, just not the best. He enjoyed his egg drop soup. I opted for Hunan Beef. The sauce was thicker than I prefer, with an almost gelatinous consistency. The hot and sour soup was nice, a little more sour than hot. We both thought the fried rice that came with lunch was a little bland. Maybe the entree version is better? Each special was under $10, and it's definitely a great value.

Walked in and waited for a few minutes before someone handed us menus and told us to sit wherever. Just handed us menus...in a kind of "just go sit down kinda way". Not real friendly. The appetizer we ordered (veggie steamed dumplings) came out with one less dumpling than promised on the menu. My wife's noodles were nothing special, as was my spicy/numbing pot. I felt my pot in particular, was over-loaded with huge chunks of veggies that could have been better chopped as to be more manageable. More chicken and beef in that chicken and beef pot, too, please ... The person waiting on us, if you could call it that, was not personable and could not have cared less about interacting.
