    Egg fu young
    Karlyn K.

    TLDR: Reliable Chinese and Vietnamese spot with generous portions, excellent fried rice, standout egg foo young, friendly service, and fair prices. A great choice for dine in or takeout. We've eaten at Hao Hao several times now, both dine in and takeout, and it has quietly become one of our regular spots. The location is easy to get to with good parking, which already makes it a win. The bright open sign was a smart addition and definitely draws your eye. Inside, the dining room is smaller with limited tables, which actually gives it a more relaxed, quaint feel compared to larger, noisier places. They offer both Chinese and Vietnamese dishes. I am not especially familiar with Vietnamese food, but I enjoy Chinese and have struggled to find a local option we really like. Hao Hao has filled that gap for us. Across multiple visits, we have tried a variety of dishes and have yet to have a bad meal. Somewhat unexpectedly, the fried rice is excellent. It even reheats well, which is not something I usually say about fried rice. This visit was with my parents. It was a little louder than our previous visits, likely because kids were out for the holidays, but still enjoyable. We started with fried dumplings, edamame, and ribs. The dumplings were nicely crisp without being greasy or water logged. I am not a rib person, but my significant other orders them every time, which speaks for itself. I shared the chicken egg foo young with my mother. This is my third time ordering egg foo young here. I usually get the vegetable version, but the chicken was just as good. Not many places serve egg foo young anymore, likely because it is messy and time consuming to make, but it remains one of my favorite dishes. Portions are generous. Two large omelets, plenty of sauce, and lots of fresh mushrooms. My mother's boyfriend ordered the pho and was very positive about it. The portion size alone was impressive. My significant other ordered the shrimp with black pepper salt and talked through the meal about how good it was. Service is table service and the staff have consistently been pleasant and easy to interact with. Food was a bit slow this visit, but that was unusual and they were clearly busy. It did not detract from the experience. Overall, this was another great meal. Reasonably priced, generous portions, and reliable quality. We will absolutely keep coming back.

    Cup of Egg Drop Soup with Crunchy Noodles
    Jerry E.

    First visit, at dinner time on a Friday evening (about 5:30 p.m. I give them a solid 4 for the food, but a 2 for service. I don't have anything negative to say about the server. He was congenial and hustling. But it appeared they didn't have enough staff and they weren't well trained (a management issue). I had to ask separately to get sweet and sout sauce with my egg roll, had to ask a second time for my crunchy noodles, and had to ask separately for soy sauce for my entree. The sense was that the server had to take care of way too many tables. Just too few staff, and insufficient training. The othet negative is that they charge extra for little add ons that most places include. On the other hand, the food was pretty good. I want this place to succeed. I did enjoy everything I ordered. Had Pork and Shrimp Spring Rolls with Peanut Sauce, Egg Drop Soup, Crunchy Noodles (that cost extra - most places don't charge for these), and Shrimp and Lobster Sauce. And it was Friday evening rush time. Just need for management to more fully train staff on how to fully take care of customers. I do like the food here. I wish they would improve the othet service related details.

    Good service, great tea and good food. We were seated right away, had immediate service, our drinks were never less than half full. I grew up with Hao Hao in Round Rock and was super excited to see this location. It did not disappoint. We found the restaurant quiet and well decorated. A few people seated at the bar and a few tables filled and we were able to chat easily during our dinner.

    Combo vermicelli bowl
    Lori H.

    As you walk in, the bar overwhelms the restaurant space and did not appear ready for a full bar at the time, seems more like a staff work space? We were sat at the opposite end where most seating is. I'd guess there were a total of 6 booth seating and a few 2 seat tables I couldn't quite remember but not a large space. Lots of stool seating at the bar mentioned at least a dozen+ We started with the pork/shrimp spring roll that were in generously filled with a char siu like pork and good sized shrimp halves served with peanut sauce. Nothing unique to review except the wrap was chewy. Entrees were the Neptune platter and combo vermicelli bowl with pork, chicken, beef and shrimp. The Neptune was ok, it wasn't bad but nothing blew my tastebuds out of the park. The meats in the combo vermicelli bowl were chopped so fine, and minimal that you could not identify what proteins you were actually given in the combo. Their bowls are prepared different somewhat like a stir fry rather than the traditional bowls. The flavor was ok, again, not a home run on any of these dishes to bring us back to this place. Staff were stoic with very little personality that welcomes guests. It's free, use it to your advantage. We still tipped well in hopes that it would bring some smiles to other guests after us

    They are still new so they have work to do. The sauces are very heavy on the entrees. Food could have been warmer. They charge extra for a soup change or fried rice. I try again in a few months if near. Very lovely setting. The serve beer and wine. Tables are very close together. There is a room for private party

    A great Vietnamese food option in the Leander area. Service is quick and friendly. The restaurant is clean and well-organized. I would recommend it for a small or large group.

    Chicken Fried Rice
    Jason C.

    Chicken fried rice was great. Chicken wings were great. Combo lo me in was great. Inside was clean. Music was good. Service was great. Simple as that I highly recommend this place!

    First time trying this new restaurant, it's a smaller space. They do have bar seating, tables and a few booths. It looked like they carry a few different kinds of beer. The service was great, friendly and super attentive! We ordered the spicy chicken platter that comes with steamed rice (we ordered fried rice), eggroll and a choice of soup. We chose the wonton soup and also ordered a plate of crab wontons. Everything was fresh, hot and tasted great. The spicy chicken wasn't spicy to us. Next time we're going to request, if possible, that they make ours more spicy. We will definitely return.

    We had never eaten here before. It's the closest Chinese restaurant to us. (Wok and Grille in Lago…read moreVista is closer, but after a change of ownership, the food quality there dropped to 'unacceptable.') I ordered Mongolian beef and my wife chose cashew chicken. I had a large hot and sour soup and an order of four vegetable egg rolls. The soup was good but I was disappointed there were no little chunks of pork in it. The egg rolls were the worst I've ever tried to eat, after requesting soy sauce and hot mustard, which should've accompanied this dish. They were previously frozen and gooey inside. Just awful. The beef was tender and the onions were cooked perfectly in my Mongolian beef, but there was barely any sauce. Same with my wife's dish: very little sauce. Neither dish had much flavor. My Mongolian beef was supposed to be spicy. There were three peppers on my plate, but it wasn't spicy at all. I had to drench everything with hot oil. The hot tea was too weak to drink. I'm 74 and traveled the country for 35 years during my career working for a Japanese company. I ate at least one Asian meal per week at a Chinese, Japanese, Thai or sushi restaurant. I also cook delicious stir fry dishes with scratch made sauces.

    Tried Four Seasons Chinese Restaurant in Leander and had a pretty average experience. We ordered…read morethe veggie egg rolls, orange chicken, General Tso's chicken, and beef lo mein. Everything was cooked fine, but overall the food just lacked flavor. The beef lo mein, in particular, was surprisingly bland, which was a bit strange. The orange chicken was also just okay but not memorable either. It made me wonder if it's more of a seasoning or ingredient quality issue. With so many solid Chinese food options around, this one didn't really stand out enough for me to order from again.

    If you are looking for Americanized Chinese food that you could find all over in the 1980's this is…read morethe best I have found in several decades with the added bonus of not feeling hungry again in 30 minutes and no MSG hangover. There was nothing that I would not eat again, but the highlight was definitely the crab rangoon, the best that I have ever had anywhere and I have lived in 5 countries on 4 different continents and been to another 32 countries. The PuPu platter was good, but I would likely go with separate items in the future with potentially skipping the shrimp and spring rolls. I really liked the ability to pick the spice level on the entrées. I recommend ordering the fried rice entrée, the fried rice that comes with the other entrées is ok, but the fried rice entrée really takes it up flavor wise. I have to assume the Indonesian food is authentic as there were at least 5 families in traditional dress going in for pickup or dinner. I definitely look forward to trying Indonesian selection next time around. It is a family owned establishment and they could not be nicer. Definitely worth the out of the way drive for me.

Shrimp and walnut prawn very delicious good size portion nice big shrimp and not gooey . Combination fried rice has plenty of meat. Great flavor and shockingly also has large shrimp. Mongolian beef because I thought I had to give it a try most Asian places I am very particular and don't like chewy meat. Very good not chewy! Bakmi Ayam noodles with chicken and mushroom very good. I like this more than I thought I would. I also appreciate that it had fresh greens on top. it's also served with some chicken broth. I did not use it yet, smells amazing though. When I walked in, I was greeted by two friendly young ladies. I placed my order and waited. I do not have a large waiting area. They also do not have a large dining room. I would love to come back and bring friends as it's a very cute place and the staff is very friendly. Small and casual decor would be a great place to come with friends. They do have some Asian beer in the back cooler. I can see from where I am standing. I apologize, not taking a photo of each dish however I didn't think about it until after I made my plate.
