Heights Asian Cafe is always on point. I love to stop in here for a chill casual meal. The staff is very nice and they remember you the next time you visit, it's like you're family! They do a great job whether you order dine-in or takeout. I like to order the chicken fried rice and wonton soup with a raspberry tea to drink. Can't go wrong with that, but I've had various entrees here and they have all been delicious. I also recommend the General Tso's, sesame chicken, egg rolls, and spring rolls. One day I want to try their pho but haven't been able to switch up from my normal just yet. There are tables and booths inside that accommodate 4-6 people, and there are a couple of TVs for casual viewing. There is plenty of parking available as well. Give this spot a try you won't regret it. read more

What a great ambiance! First time visiting and we love the variety and the coziness of this restaurant. They had Chinese food and even had pho noodles and some Thai options as well. Great family owned spot in the neighborhood! Has patio seating and plenty of parking. Serving sizes were great for the price as well. Very friendly service you can tell they have been working there for a while and know the locals. read more

I hadn't been here in years because my experience was mediocre in the past. I recently saw a post on Houston Heights Foodies, so I decided to give them another try. I got the chili lemongrass tofu lunch special for $10.75. It was filling, but I'd honestly prefer to pay more at another place for more intense flavors. The person reviewed the basil beef. Perhaps that would have been a better choice. If you are wanting to get full for a low cost, then this place would work. If your palate is more refined, you might want to choose another place. Sorry Heights Asian Cafe.I actually ran into one of your former employees at Cooking Girl. She also made me think that perhaps I was might be missing something. I was not. read more

Service is rude and careless. Avoidant to their tables in exchange for personal conversations and their phone. The food is alright- not worth having to endure the service when there is an abundance of Asian establishments that are genuine, helpful and warm. We will personally never come back. read more

Valentine's Lunch with Mom... let's do this. First off, the place was clean. Tables shining, floors behaving, no sticky menus, no weird smells. I'm pretty sure the owners were there and if not, whoever was running things was sweet as pie. Just genuinely kind people. We love to see it. We ordered the orange chicken lunch combo (with hot & sour soup), the Vietnamese egg roll vermicelli bowl, and crab rangoons. Portions were solid. We love a plate that doesn't look like it's on a diet. The vermicelli bowl was delicious. Super fresh, flavorful, filling, balanced. I'd order that again without hesitation. Thank you chef! The hot & sour soup was good. Yes, a little thicker than I personally prefer... but that's the assignment with hot & sour soup right? Flavor-wise, it showed up and did what it needed to do. Now the orange chicken... it wasn't bad. Just not memorable. It was giving, "I tried." And it wasn't hot-just warm. Probably wouldn't order that again. BUT BABYYYYY them crab rangoons?? I'd stand outside in the rain for a plate you hear me?! Crispy, creamy, so much flavor! Not your average rangoons. Of all the places I've had them, they have done them the best!! I will absolutely be back just to order four or five plates with zero shame. So service... The owners again were 10/10 kind and welcoming. Our waitress wasn't rude, or nothing she was... just there. Very orange chicken energy. Like she clocked in and said, "I'm here to pay my rent." No warmth, no welcome vibe. That knocked it down a bit because better service would've easily pushed this to four stars. But from one waitress to another -- I'll give her a little grace. Overall the food is a solid 3.5/5, the experience: 3.75/5.... Benediction: Good food, GREAT rangoons, sweet owners... great for a quick weekday lunch. And that's my Valentine's Day testimony. read more

I can appreciate the dining experience as well as the takeout. Love coming here for lunch, great deals, and great Chinese/Asian food here in the Heights. The Mongolian Beef and the Basil Chicken are my favorites with that Hot and Sour Soup. Great appetizer selections like the Dumplings, the Eggrolls, and those Crab Rangoons!!! If I could give it 10 stars, that would be awesome cuz they're the best!!! read more

Although the space is small, it has plenty of charm. The staff was friendly and service was fast. There's a good variety of options on the menu. We started with drinks and loved their fresh lemonade--it's served with sugar, fresh lemon juice, and a bottle of Topo Chico mineral water that you mix yourself. It was different, refreshing, and absolutely worth trying. We got wings for an appetizer. They were crispy and larger than expected. The sauce was buffalo-based with a unique sweetness that wasn't overpowering. The hot and sour soup was very flavorful--better than most places. We also tried the egg noodle and wonton soup, which came in a large portion, was well seasoned, and had wontons that weren't soggy. The kung pao chicken was well seasoned and came with an eggroll; I paired it with white rice. Everything had a great balance of flavors. The real star of the meal, though, was the fried rice. The shrimp were huge, and the rice was perfectly seasoned--not your basic fried rice at all. Overall, a great experience. I would definitely return to try more items on the menu. read more

Solid set of menu options, quick and friendly service, lots of parking! Both the wonton soup and hot and sour were yummy. Portions for main courses are definitely shareable. We got cashew chicken and kung pao which were pretty similar. Overall, decent Chinese / Asian food at a good price. read more

I've been to Heights Asian Cafe many times and tried a variety of dishes. My favorites are the Beef Sesame, Wonton Soup and Chicken Lettuce Wrap--they suit my taste perfectly. The staff here are incredibly sweet and welcoming, which makes every visit even more enjoyable. Everything, from the utensils to the drinking glasses, is always very clean and well-maintained. The space is small but cozy, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. This place has definitely earned a five-star spot in my heart. read more

Would not return and don't recommend. Long story short, there was a baby caterpillar on my side of green beans which for one I thought the green beans would be sautéed or have seasoning on them but instead they were just blanched unseasoned green beans. With my luck, the one green beans I bit was the one with caterpillar on it and I understand that it's a fresh vegetable and it's a possibility for these things to happen but it's still unsanitary and shows me that they don't wash their produce thoroughly. As for the kids house lomein, while it was a large portion, there was no veggies in it and the meat did not taste good in it and had a sour taste. The lomein needed veggies in it for some flavor. The dumplings were just okay, nothing spectacular. The vegetable egg rolls are probably the only thing I can say tasted good and worth getting. Overall, this was my first and last visit unfortunately. read more

Service was great. Aside from that we left unimpressed. We had gone a few years ago and we were in the area and decided to swing by. We ordered the edamame that was over cooked and tasted like we were eating smashed beans. Then we had lo mien and the noodles again were very soft and over cooked. It was not how we had remembered at all and probably won't be coming back. So sad. Maybe I came on an off day. read more

Ever wonder what a restaurant looks like with ADHD on the menu? Look no further than here. I was overwhelmed to say the least of what I would want to eat. It is truly Asian in the sense that I could get whatever Asian I wanted. Overall it was a good spot. A bit tight seating wise. It isn't a romantic spot. But honestly with good Asian, I don't care about that. Being in a tight area like that, the server couldn't help but notice anything we needed. I'd go back for more decently priced food. We stuck with the Chinese classics like egg rolls and such. read more

My 1st time eating here & was impress how nice this place was. The food was amazing, the service was great. The lady who served us was friendly and professional. The atmosphere was relaxing. Even the music that was on was great! They serve plenty of food, so we asked for a container. So packed it for us & placed it on a big to go. I highly recommend this place. Definitely coming back.​​​​​ read more

We really like getting take out from here! The prices are reasonable, the food is always ready pretty quick, and there's tons of options. The general tso is pretty good, but my favorite thing I've gotten so far is the wonton soup. I always have leftovers for the next day. Good amount of parking too. read more

Heights Asian Cafe - General Tso, white rice, pink Fresh Lemonade. - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came in on a weekday afternoon. I ordered the General Tso's Chicken with a side of Egg Drop Soup. The service was crazy fast, probably due to it being pretty slow. The soup came out quickly, with the chicken not being not long after. The soup was good, and was very similar of another place I've been to. The chicken was great, the sauce having an amazing blend and the portion size being crazy good. The server was very polite and welcoming. The cost was a bit higher than what I was expecting, but for what I got it wasn't bad. I will note, despite the gated exterior, I did feel uncomfortable when initially getting out of my car. Lots of theft warning signs and some strange folks outside. But it was smooth sailing once inside. Not really something that the restaurant can control, but something to keep in mind. I may come back in the future. read more

Great food and service. I walked from Washington Heights to their place. Will become a regular. Hope to try their entire menu.

We love this place! We order and pickup frequently and it's very quick and easy process. I order on doordash and note they use their own delivery drivers so you can't contact them directly on doordash. They have access to your number though and they call when they're here. Give a bit longer than estimated doordash expected time, but I can't be mad because I believe everything is made fresh. The food is always warm when it's time to be picked up. Love the food, love the portions, love the service. They're tiers above Panda Express but note it's not like authentic Bellaire food. We've only ever tried the rice dishes and no complaints. Go to place for comfort Asian food around the heights. read more

Love this place! Went for my prom and graduation dinners and a few dates. This place has the best orange chicken I've ever tried!

Still a 3 star. I have been getting more delivery from here more frequently in the last 2 years with remote work and it's a hit or miss. This last visit was a bit disappointing, ordered pho and kids chicken lo mein. With tax, delivery and tip approx $30. Delivery came before scheduled time. Win. The pho comes in a bowl like container. So after prepping, I poured some of the soup inside the bowl. Luckily I held some soup in reserve bc the soup started leaking out of the bottom. Quickly transferred to a bowl, cleaned the countertop and inspected the bowl. Hole. It wasn't big but was on the side by the bottom. So make sure you check the bottom and sides of the bowl. Thumbs down. Taste was ok. The beef broth wasn't as hearty. Plenty of meatballs (halved) so it looks like a lot and the fixings (bean sprouts, mint, peppers, lime) were fresh. The kids lo mein is either filled nicely portion wise or not. Today was not. For $6.50, the portion was not worth it (small rectangular container) and portion was just enough to fill the base part. Disappointing. I'm not going to say I will stop ordering bc honestly they are easy and close and the food is decent enough. Their lunch special is a good bargain (rice, entree, soup, veg egg roll). I prefer the hot and sour soup but the last few times it has been salty so I switched to the egg drop soup. The extra charge for wonton soup sub (+$2.95) is unreasonable. (IMO) Keep supporting local. read more

Both dishes were amazing and the service never disappoints! We also had egg rolls and wonton soup. Delish! read more

I just had the most delicious dinner from Heights Asian Cafe. Phong and his Aunt Bernie have the BEST Asian restaurant & cuisine in Houston. I always get my 2 standard fares, Special Fried Rice and Mongolian Beef. I can always count on it being outrageous! They never disappoint! It's a special treat I allow myself. If you've never tried it, do yourself a favor and go. Go now! I usually do take out. The restaurant has a friendly & relaxed ambiance. Treat yourself. read more

I'm gonna get right into it! The food is fantastic! They told me 25 minutes on my order and when I showed up 25 minutes later the food was being packed and handed over.

Whoever is running this place now deserves credit, it's gotten better and better! read more

I got delivery from them. Took 1 and a half hours and then the food was bland, slimy, and just not good.

place a large online order for my coworkers and I paid. I clocked out for my 45 minute lunch. When I arrived I was told the order was cancel due to the system but never did receive a courtesy call saying my order was cancelled. when my coworker called to complain over the phone the owner said something was wrong with the kitchen. so which was it. Very disappointed and unprofessional. and we didn't eat lunch and he didn't care. read more

Love this place and they haven't changed unless you count the plexiglass dividers COVID brought in to play. The orange beef is spectacular. Thin, crispy pieces of tender beef, no fat to be found. The hot and sour soup option on their lunch special is a perfect compliment to the sweet of the orange beef with flecks of black pepper and just the right amount of zip. Try their fresh lemonade too, not the pink. It is brought to your table in two parts a glass of ice with freshly squeezed lemon juice and coarse sugar and a bottle of topo chico mineral water. Mix them together and stir vigorously and you will find yourself with a delicious glass of lemonade. read more
