    Recently taking over the old Van Thong, BaoBae offers a wide selection of Chinese favorites with fresh veggies and tasty options. It seemed pretty standard fare and they definitely up for the to-go trade. While the inside in certainly a step up from the worn down look Van Thongs sported, the dishes are thin paper plates and to go containers. This is ok, but saucy dishes and soup dumplings were not quite made for these platters. The staff was nice and food is good. Don't skip the egg rolls.

    Good food at a good price. We will definitely go back. The place is clean but not fancy. I think that a lot of their business is take out

    My favorite place for Peking duck around the Houston area. It's a little farther out, but I usually…read morestop by whenever I'm driving to or from AIH. The duck is roasted for hours, so the skin comes out nice and crispy without being too greasy. I also like that the remaining duck is made into a soup afterward. It's simple, hearty, and especially good on a colder day. I've tried several other dishes here, and they've all been solid and remind me of the Chinese food I grew up eating. The servers have always been attentive and friendly, and the restaurant is spacious, so it's a good spot for family dinners or larger groups.

    Where to begin? We stood a bit by the door waiting to be seated. Idk if they're short staffed or…read morethat's their reg staff. Which is wild cus they were running around that place nonstop. When we finally got seated we weren't asked What would you like to drink or this is our drink menu. It was-Water,right?right?Ok brb. So we had water just like the rest of the people in there. Also weird how they don't have any drinks on the menu or let you know about options. Could I have asked for something else? Sure but again waitresses were just all over the place it was crazy. When we ordered and others food was coming out we realized what big portions they give you. BTW just 'cus it's big portions doesn't mean This food is about to be the best Ive ever had. The food- We got some shrimp plate and we were told it was spicy because it has peppers and peppercorns which would numb your tongue.It was just basic shrimp dish. Only good or cool part of it was eating lotus root which Ive never had before. We also ordered the "special" house beef noodles and I don't see the hype or why they're so special. The only crazy part was the noodles length. Which honestly made it hard to eat. We ordered the duck which came with the soup. The soup was made from scraps. I think if they had added more duck and not just scraps it would be my fav thing of everything we ordered. Will say it tasted like chicken soup. For the duck. It wasn't as crispy as people made it seem to be. I expect idk a more gamey flavor to it and all I kept saying is-This taste like pork carnitas. Idk why we got treated better than the table behind us. We asked for to go just like they did but they just gave them their to-go plates like Here ya go and they put all of our food in our to-go for us. Would I go back? Its one of those you say- Ok I've had it,had the duck,don't get the hype but ok not worth coming back again for more.

    Ordered take out for the first time here on a Saturday night. Can't speak on the service, other…read morethan the food was made promptly (20 minutes). The woman who took the order over the phone and at the pick up counter wasn't very personable. Seemed as if she was rushing around although the restaurant wasn't at all busy inside. Perhaps just having a bad night? We ordered Chicken Lo Mein, General Tao's, Honey Walnut Chicken, crab puffs, and spring rolls -- portions for dishes were fairly standard, all of which were just ok regarding flavor and texture. General Tso's lacked spice and the texture of the chicken was gristly. Lo Mein was average tasting. Honey Walnut Chicken actually had more spice than the General Tso's... but regardless, was pretty bland. The crab puffs had hardly any cream cheese filling, and the ends of the fried pieces were hard and chewy which was disappointing. How can you screw up a crab puff? The best thing we ate were the spring rolls which were light and crispy paired with the sweet and sour sauce. We wanted to like this place, however, there are far superior Chinese restaurants in the area. I doubt we will try again.

    I was craving some fried rice and didn't know where to order from. I found this place on yelp and…read morethough some reviews weren't the best, some were. I'm glad I gave this place a try! The house fried rice came packed in the container and was still warm when I got home. It was evenly seasoned and tasted fresh. The vegetables weren't over cooked and the meats were delicious. It was very easy to order and the cashier was so nice. The restaurant was clean and nice inside. I can't wait to try another dish from here.

    We really like Kioku because the food is fresh & hot, the servers are attentive & friendly, and the…read moreplace is comfortable. I like their Hibachi grill, at which I am able to select my own raw food and have it cooked to order -- for example, in teriyaki sauce or ginger. They keep the men's restroom clean & picked up (can't speak for the women's "powder room"). Price is reasonable, given the Hibachi, dessert bar, ice cream freezer and sushi bar.

    I really don't recommend anyone come here. Obviously when you go to a buffet restaurant, you…read moreshouldn't expect amazing quality but this place really feels like the health department needs to step in. The staff seemed just kind of confused at every part of the dining process and barely address you. We only saw a server once to be seated and once when we had to go find a random employee to just get our check. The food was maybe half a step above room temperature and the water had a really strange taste that was kind of reminiscent of chemicals, soap, and some kind of bacteria all at once, there were plates that weren't very clean, and all the food tasted horribly off. My friend and I didn't even finish the one plate we made and completely lost our appetites. Both of us felt sick after what little we ate and my stomach was in so much pain. If I was more confrontational, I would've demanded a refund or some kind of compensation because of how horrible our experience was but we just wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible. There are better buffets in the area that aren't walking health hazards. Please try those places instead if you're looking for one.
