    General atmosphere
    Heavenly D.

    Ginger Café pleasantly surprised us from the moment we walked in. The sushi was excellent--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The team behind the sushi counter was fantastic: skilled, welcoming, and clearly passionate about their craft. Our waitress was a standout--bubbly, personable, and genuinely helpful with recommendations that hit the mark. The restaurant was clean, cozy, and had a relaxed, intimate vibe that made the whole experience feel special. One thing that really stood out was the clientele. Everyone seemed down-to-earth, friendly, and respectful--just average folks enjoying good food. For Atascocita, it felt like a refreshingly diverse crowd, which added to the warm atmosphere. We did wish they had soda water on the menu, but honestly, that's a minor detail in an otherwise great experience. The daily specials were a nice touch, and the speed of service was on point--our food came out quickly without feeling rushed. The exterior doesn't quite reflect how cute and welcoming the interior is, so don't judge it by the outside. Cost was medium- for a sushi roll, drinks, appetizer and a shared meal we spent about 50$ but this was a lot of food. Ginger Café is worth checking out if you're in the area.

    I came here because Tai Li was busy and ginger cafe seemed similar. This place has a few Japanese and Chinese dishes such as Lo mein, bento boxes, and sushi. I tried the seaweed salad and caterpillar roll. The seaweed salad was quite good with a topping of masago, and the caterpillar roll tasted great. The only thing I found a bit odd was the shrimp on the caterpillar roll, which wasn't cut up properly and also wasn't in the menu description. Other than that I enjoyed the visit. The decor is cute and our server Spencer also spoke Mandarin Chinese which was a plus for my grandfather!

    We tried several items and all were GREAT! My favorite was the tempura jalapeño... Service was great and all the food arrived hot!

    Our absolute favorite sushi place in Humble!! Sushi is always so fresh and the best quality. Service is exceptional every time! There are about 15 tables inside plus the bar top seating. Smaller more intimate restaurant. They have 2 other locations in the kingwood area.

    Filthy screen and floor to where we sat

    I wanted to love this place. Unfortunately they fell short. Food didn't taste fresh. Ordered a bento box and the general tso chicken tasted like chicken nuggets drowned in a very not general tso sauce. Rice was luke warm and mushy. The best part of my order was the gyoza but how can one mess that up. I ordered the fried octopus balls... very weird wet consistency and different from other places I've tried. They served my bento box and my friends food for whatever reason they though was to go so his didn't come until ten minutes later. Idk why though lol it was only us and one other party there. As far as cleanliness idk. There's a lot of random things collecting dust in thick layer not being cleaned off and the window where we sat was gross like someone spilled stuff and they never cleaned it. Then, what I think is the owner, stood near the sushi rolling guys chatting. The gentlemen passes him a sushi pocket to eat right then and there.. neither cleaned their hands or anything when the owner had just come from somewhere outside. And then the gentlemen proceeds to roll sushi for guests. This place had decent reviews but I think people just don't know quality Will not return.

    Great sushi, great bento boxes...must try if your in the Atascocita area. Sushi chefs are next level for this area. You won't find any better on the north side of Houston.

    IYKYK - this is probably the best Peking Duck I've had in Houston in a long time. I've done Peking…read moreCuisine for years and shifted to Arco for my duck cravings, but if you're willing to drive out to Humble (pretty much anytime you're in the IAH area), you gotta check out Bamboo House for the best Peking duck. And their other menu items are fire as well! We went on a Sunday late evening. We had a 9 pm airport pickup at IAH so it was a perfect opportunity to grab a spectacular dinner and make the 30+ minute drive out to IAH totally worth it. Parking lot wasn't too full so that wasn't an issue. While the neighborhood ain't River Oaks luxury, it ain't too scary either. We kept it simple - ordered a whole duck and Bamboo House Special Noodle with Beef. This place ain't cheap but the food is worth every penny. It was very busy that evening so it's not a well-kept secret but also proves that eventually, Houstonians will figure out where the good food is. The duck was near perfect. They serve the duck with the pancakes (as opposed to the buns like at Arco) which is my preference. The soup that comes with it was also extremely flavorful. And the house special noodles with beef - oh my. I swear it's just one really long noodle so you may be frustrated trying to divvy up the family style bowl, but the labor is worth it. So good... Can't wait for my next airport run so I can sneak in a lunch or dinner at this place. So many other menu items I want to try!

I had previously visited the now closed Bamboo House on Westheimer and I remember being impressed by the food. I had to make an airport run and decided that it would be perfect timing to stop by this location. I highly recommend ordering the duck ahead of time, but we were lucky enough to snag one of the last ducks when we arrived around 7 pm on a Sunday evening. The waitress was super friendly and upbeat and the restaurant is older but well maintained. You can see where the food is being prepared/cooked and you can see ducks being cooked/warmed behind a glass window. The duck was absolutely spectacular with the perfect seasoned and tender meat accompanied by well rendered crispy skin. I love how the pancakes are paper thin and pair well with the scrumptious duck and other toppings. They also provide sugar and plum sauce as additional toppings which I thought was interesting but not my cup of tea. The duck soup was extremely flavorful and full bodied and went well with the duck. The noodles were also amazing with likely hand pulled noodles served with an abundance of tender beef and vegetables with a little Sichuan kick. I was intrigued by a strawberry chicken dish that I saw on the menu and I plan to try it the time. My diagnosis: hands down the best Peking duck in the greater Houston area!

    Left No Grain of Rice Behind (and Met a Track Star)…read more (10/10) My husband and I wandered into Imperial China on a quiet night - just us two lovebirds and the immaculately clean scent of... well, perfection. Seriously, the place smelled so fresh you could probably perform surgery in the dining room (don't worry, they stick to cooking, which is way more impressive). But the real MVP was Kendall She ran the register, served us, and basically orchestrated our entire evening with the grace of a future Olympic athlete... which, as it turns out, isn't far off! She mentioned she used to run track and is getting back into it. Let me tell you, that explains everything. The speed at which she refilled our water? Blink-and-you-miss-it. The efficiency of her service? Faster than the hurdles she used to jump over. We half-expected her to hand us our fortune cookies while doing hurdle drills over the chairs! Kendall, if you're reading this - you're amazing, and please save some gold medals for the rest of us mere mortals. Now, the FOOD. Oh. My. Wok. We're usually "leftover champions" at Chinese restaurants - it's practically our marital duty. But not this time. We ordered the Combination Fried Rice loaded with goodies) and the Hunan Chicken (spicy, savory, downright addictive). It was so unbelievably delicious, so flawlessly cooked, that we licked our plates clean. Seriously. Not a single grain of rice, not a stray pepper, not even a suspiciously saucy smudge escaped. Our dog is currently giving us the stink-eye because there were zero take-home boxes. Zero! Imperial China broke our leftover streak, and we're not even mad. And as if the universe was nodding along, our fortune cookie sealed the deal: Thursday will bring trust on your new journey." Considering our journey involved demolishing enough food for three people and meeting a future track legend, we'd say it's already pretty darn trustworthy! Overall 10 out of 10. Flawless cleanliness, food that made us abandon all dignity (and leftovers), service faster than Kendall's personal best, and a fortune that felt weirdly on-point. Imperial China, you've won our hearts, our stomachs, and our clean plate awards. We'll be back... probably on Thursday. Just in case.
