China 9 Cafe is officially one of our new favorite local spots! We ordered the pepper steak and the pineapple chicken, and both dishes were amazing. The pepper steak was tender, well-seasoned, and full of flavor, and the pineapple chicken had the perfect sweet and savory balance with fresh, juicy pineapple. Everything tasted fresh and made to order. The portions were generous, and the prices are very affordable for the quality you get -- great value without sacrificing freshness. Jim and Sandy were incredibly friendly and attentive. They made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in and checked on us to make sure everything was perfect. Their service really elevated the whole experience. If you're looking for fresh, delicious Asian food at a great price, China 9 Cafe is definitely the place to go. We'll absolutely be back! read more

China 9 Cafe is a good place for Crab Rangoon and the Happy Family dish. The Happy Family was delicious and portioned the right amount for me. I will say I wasn't a fan of the fried rice but the service and atmosphere was nice. read more

See all

Fantastic Chinese food that never disappoints. We usually get it to go but they have ample seating and great service inside. We got the shrimp Lo-mein, chicken with vegetables, fried rice, and egg rolls. The portions are very generous so we usually share one order. The food is always fresh and delicious. Definitely a great Chinese restaurant read more

We decided to give this place a try. Reading the reviews I was looking forward to nice people, great food. We got in the door, The hostess looked like we were disturbing her just coming in, I asked (sit anywhere)? she motioned with her head with a scowl on her face. The place smelled stale or had a strange odor. We decided not to eat there.... Never had a chance to find out if the food was good or not.....Didn't feel welcome or inviting..... read more

I like trying to places around my area, so I thought I'd give this place a shot. Had 4 star rating so I was actually expecting it to be a good hole in the wall place. I Got the orange chicken with rice 12.64$ and beef lo mein 10.50$. Pretty decent portions for the price, people at the desk were friendly. Took food home and it was still hot when I got home, once I started eating it though, there were parts of my rice that were cold aswell with the chicken. Taste overall was 4/10 rice and chicken was about 6/10. Unfortunately the fact that parts of my food were cold was a big no for me, most likely microwaved? I don't know exactly how some parts were extremely hot and other parts were cold. Very disappointing, and lo mein was alright I'll give it a 4/10 much better spots out there. Overall portions were good for price, food felt microwaved not as fresh, and taste was mid. read more

Service was great, we had orange chicken, shredded pork w/spicy garlic sauce, lo mein, pork fried rice. The pork was not shredded and it was not spicy at all. Many of the flavors were similar to each other. read more

I've been ordering here for a few years now. The foods always delicious, and the quality is great. My favorite plate is the Singapore Noodle. It has it all. Chicken, shrimp, and meat, along with some sautéed vegetables and their Singapore noodle sauce. I usually get a side order of wonton soup and some eggrolls to go with it. Great meal for up to two, or one hungry adult with a large appetite like me. The best part is, the food is ready for pick up in 10 minutes every time. read more

So glad I drove by here and was hungry so came in to get a house lo mien. It's delicious! One of the most flavorful lo mien I've had in a while. Too bad I don't live in the area but when I come back, I know where I'll eat at again. The sweet girl at the cashier gave better customer service than a lot of older people these days, polite, professional, and well mannered. read more

Outstanding service for take out, clean atmosphere, good business hours, reasonably priced. Egg rolls were delicious. Hot & sour soup was pretty spicy, spicier than most, but was good. The only thing I'd like to see improvement on is the main entrees of chicken with vegetables & chicken with cashew. Something the food was made with did not set well with us. The flavor was a little off and neither of us felt well. Perhaps oil or sauce. I really don't know. I hope some attention can be given to what and how good is being prepared along with some real taste test. I believe if this is done, restaurant will receive increased repeat business. read more

After ordering from China 9 for 17 years, we will find somewhere else. The General Tso's chicken was much smaller pieces and the sauce was watery and flavorless. The szechuan chicken was just ok. On our previous orders they included a container of sweet and sour sauce but we only got 2 packets of duck sauce.I wouldn't recommend it. read more

Food is good, just had one issue recently. I found 2 black hairs in my food... please , don't let this happen again it's not appetizing. Also, I know it's not my hair because it's not my color. read more

Great food great customer service and they deliver as well. We eat there at least twice a week at work

First time going and last. The chicken and snow peas were good but the fried rice looked like mush like rice rolled in mud. That wasn't fried rice at all. I've had fried rice done right. Ambiance was very drab. Service was good. read more

First time here and love this place..it's spaces inside and super clean! Most importantly, down to earth services and excellent food quality and prices. Folks, there is no need to go elsewhere, this is a fine Chinese restaurant for all! read more

Came here and ordered shrimp fried rice and the shrimp were mushy like potatoes. It's obvious the seafood has been terribly mishandled. Rice also tastes old and not seasoned well. I ended up throwing the whole dish out. What a waste of my money. I will never patronize this restaurant again. If I could give it a 0 star I would. Absolutely disgusting! read more

I was craving Chinese food and decided to make this my dinner spot. For starters the customer service is amazing. I left so happy after talking to the gentleman at the front desk. He was happy and helpful. The food was amazing I ordered the general Tso chicken and the sesame chicken. The portions were perfect and everything tasted amazing. It was ready to go in under 15 minutes. I also appreciated how covid safe the restaurant is and made the to go process easy! Truly a great restaurant I will definitely be putting this on my regular rotation. A+ read more

I was really surprised with this location. I'm a huge Chinese food person and wanted something "new". I had the House Special Mei Fun. I really really enjoyed it. I love noodle dishes so this was a win. Meats were cooked perfectly and not tough (shrimp was not chewy!). Rather large portions well. Egg rolls were nice and crispy! Overall a really good experience. I'll go back for sure. read more

YALLLLLLL THIS PLACE IS SOOOOO GOOD. They are always so nice, I always get my food delivered and they are fast and reliable. Not once did I ever receive cold or bad food or my order wrong. 10/10 read more

Wonderful restaurant in old town Cypress. Glad we have options in Cypress now and cafe 9 has been the best for value and quality.

Coming from NY I've lived in 2 other states and have never been able to find chines food like the ones in NY. China 9s flavor definitely hit home, they can confidently claim the "New York style Chinese food" approved by an original New Yorker! read more

Always fast and friendly service. All items on the menu that I've had are awesome. Just ask Jim for any recommendations.

Always quick easy to order. Friendly service to go. Love the crab puffs and lo mein. read more

Been eating here ever since they opened! The food is spectacular! The service is top notch! Very nice chef and staff! Love this place! Would recommend to anyone! Keep up the good work guys! The atmosphere is great! They are very attentive to your needs! read more

I'm going to make this one short and sweet. Tea: Taste like it was made from water imported from the Florida swamps. Sesame Chicken: Actually really good. Meat has just the right crisp. Fried Rice: Nothing short of horrible. For the sake of eating don't put the fried rice in your mouth. Egg Roll: Only eatable if you don't use your tongue. The service is lacking. The lady host comes off a bit rude. She wouldn't even use my yelp check in offer. The gentleman that brings your food is very courteous so one star goes for him. 2 for the Sesame Chicken. I have to assume that they are a husband and wife team. She needs a lesson in customer service. You buy we fry and prosper! read more

Love this place. I've lived around the corner for almost a year now, and my family goes here about once a week, sometimes more. The food is consistently good, no MSG, fresh, and makes me feel good. And the people have felt like friends from the first visit. It feels like home. And it's affordable, too. I don't think it could get much better than this. read more

First time here, the price is decent and the taste is pretty good. I ordered shrimp Lomien and it comes with egg roll, fried rice on the side and hot and sour soup. The taste of the soup can be improved. It was a bit less tasty. The main dish was good! I will come back! read more

Based on our last experience, we decided to try them again. Big mistake! First of all, I tried to order a healthy tofu dish, even specifying that it not be fried. What did I end up with? Fried tofu and the batter surrounding the tofu was awful. Same thing with the sweet and sour chicken. Battered, fried lumps of chicken. The batter was really strange and thick. Nobody wanted to eat it, not even the kids. Seafood delight had big lumps of artificial crab. Nice. The flavor on the hot and sour soup was way off. They did better with the Mongolian beef, chicken chow mein, and shrimp and vegetables. But still, the dishes were just average. We ended up with tons of leftovers. I wonder why. read more

Fresh dishes . Best Chinese food I tasted a long time . Small friendly restaurant in cypress. I will come again. I would say best Chinese food in TX . read more

So I found this place through the app. This place is a small mom and pop Chinese restaurant in a shopping center. Don't let that fool you. I have a prior review of 888 Chinese restaurant where I rave about their sweet and sour soup. Well this place has them beat. The two soups taste exactly the same however this place's has way more veggies in it. Very hearty. I ordered the lunch tangy and spicy shrimp (see picture). The shrimp was pretty big. The dish had great flavor. And the lunch portion was definitely filling. What's more impressive was the speed of service. I was talking my third bite of soup when my entree arrived, steaming hot. The only negative thing I can say about this restaurant was that the only thing they had playing for music was Mariah Carey's Without You on repeat. Oh and don't let the Sriracha fool you. It's not real Sriracha. Great value! Lunch Tangy Spicy Shrimp that came with hot and sour soup and an egg roll and a fountain drink totaled $8.95!!! read more
