    Sha Cha Chicken & Shrimp Fried Rice. Excellent!
    Mike C.

    First thing I love Sha Cha chicken or anything Sha Cha. So I looked over menus for Sha Cha to have delivered. I found Chun Chinese Cafe and ordered delivery. Added Shrimp fried rice. Dang I'm not at all disappointed. The Sha Cha Chicken and Shrimp fried rice were both wonderful and the portions were huge. Everything taste very fresh and flavorful! The chicken pieces are very large and tender. Life is busy and I normally don't order delivery...I like eating in the restaurant but lately delivery is the best option and Chun Chinese Cafe will be on the regular rotation. Give them a try.

    Must be new owners because the people that greeted me were extreme nice! I have to disagree with the poor reviews here because my experience was great. Give them a try and you be the judge. Let me also tell you that it's extremely hard to find good Chinese food on the NW side. This is the best I have found so far on the NW side of town. I was pretty skeptical from the reviews. I saw nice nice gentleman in the parking lot walking to his car with to good. I asked him how is the general Tsos. He said it's pretty good and that's his go to dish. So I said what the heck. Let me take the plunge. Food: General tsos chicken is extremely good, the egg rolls are simply perfect. The hot and sour soup was really good too. The fried rice was alright. Not bad not great. Very middle of the mall fried rice. Overall really good meal! Value: absolutely great value for your money. You could easily feed two people off of one dinner portion here. They definitely don't skimp you out here. Hours: the stay open late! Till 10PM!

    three dumplings on a white plate

    To Chun's Café... Ignored by the hostess/waitress for a bit, then she finally approached and said you want to eat here or leave? Our response? Good afternoon mam' how are you? She understood, said hello and told her we could sit anywhere we choose to. Decided to get fried dumplings for appetizer and go for the lunch specials. The dumplings were frozen (as I'm sure most are), but they were just thrown in the fryer and came out stuck together. Gluey mess! The lunch? Horrible. Food was lukewarm a d tasteless. Well, that's not true. The orange chicken and Szechuan chicken were sweet. That was the flavor nothing else. Chicken was supposed to be spicy tho. Wanted to add sriracha to spice it up, but the crusted looking bottle scared me. Won't go back, sorry to see that that's the only Chinese food spot around. Feel bad for the people eating there, for they don't what good or even decent Chinese food is.

    Don't waste your time here there are hundreds of other asian restaurants that even have 1 star better at least It just seems like they are doing you a big favor by serving you if you can get past the smirks on their faces then good luck and happy eating. So close to home but I have to drive it would bother enjoy at least a little bit satisfaction.

    Shrimp fried rice

    This has to be the most bland food ever. I do not feel as though there is anything authentic about the food. I ordered shrimp fried rice and I can assure you NOTHING about this dish is fried...the shrimp I didn't even want to touch...this is just a poor product that diners/consumers need to steer clear from. I wasted $9 I'll never go back.

However, my waiter and even the kitchen staff made up for that hiccup with their wonderful attitudes and service! As always, love the broadway decor and music- plus the tables and chairs set the nostalgia. The prices are exactly what you would expect in the Galleria area so don't think this is a quick cheap deli! Quality rules!

The curry was one of my favorites I've tried so far, a generous, flavorful helping that wasn't overly salty or spicy. They also gave a good amount of tender sliced beef as well.

Not many restaurants in Houston offer Takowasa, which is marinated raw octopus with wasabi; and when we find one that does, it's our must order for appetizers. We also ordered the chicken karaage and agedashi tofu. The karaage was juicy and slightly larger than the size of popcorn chicken. The tofu was soft and lightly battered, however the downside is that it gets soggy quickly since it's sitting in the sauce rather than on the side. For our entrees, we got the carbonara, curry tonkatsu rice, niku tama ankake, and kakuni udon. The carbonara was nice and creamy. The curry rice tastes exactly like the Japanese box curry. The niku tama is more of a thicker soup base similar to egg drop soup, however has a more slightly sweet umami flavor. The kakuni udon had a lighter broth with braised pork belly. The service was a bit slow here, but we didn't mind it too much. The interior had a cute traditional Japanese style decor. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and we'll be back to try other udons.

Before their recent expansions to Austin, it all began here in Rice Village exactly 15 years ago. The vibes are contemporary and casual, with the kind of space that fits for just about any scenario. Whether it's a solo meal, a lunch date, or a group led affair, the experience is almost always an excellent one. Start by ordering at the counter and find a seat where the food will brought directly to the table. So much of their variety caters to all sorts of dietary restrictions from vegan to gluten free to nut free. Their spicy crispy brussels sprouts ($10) are a nice starter, as is the squash "onion" rings ($12). The local power bowl ($16) is a classic and I've always enjoyed the brown rice and quinoa combo. Their chicken "posolé" is solid, and I love the large hominy bits along with the clear but green tint of a broth. The chicken shawarma bowl ($20) is an interesting mix that includes pickled beets and strawberries, along with their market cheddar burger ($17) and fabulous twice cooked fries. The carrot cupcake is strangely addicting, and I think their gluten free brownie is a bit of a sleeper. Some of their items didn't jive with me previously, such as an underwhelming cashew queso ($9), a semi-laughable Vietnamese steak bowl ($22), and their semi-gringo version of a banh mi ($15). It's not that these items are bad per se, but they definitely don't live up to the same standard that I feel their other dishes do best. Where they hit the biggest home run is their customer service. Everyone working behind the counter does their best to deliver and they almost always do by staying on top of refills, cleanups, and customer greets. I've always enjoyed my experiences here and look forward to every visit.
