    Inside after busy lunch.
    Jay T.

    Ok really like this place. In a small strip mall just down from LUBY'S on Mesa tucked between a Dayvos Clamatos and a Pho place. Some of the best fried rice I've ever had... you can taste the wok in it, meaning it has that slight hot Pan char taste? And the eggs in it are singed a little cuz it's so hot? Yea ... that! Had the Moo Goo lunch special today ... was piping hot ... steamy when served ... very flavorful. Plenty of chicken and veggies. The egg drop soup was very good ... had some little pieces of tomato in it ... had a slight glisten of oil or butter melted floating on top? It was perfect with a shake or two of pepper and a few crushed wonton strips added in. Their tea is always on point ... a golden Amber color ... So it's not dark or bitter ...always refreshing with fresh lemon wedge. I added the chicken and shrimp crispy spring rolls today. They were definitely crisp and fresh from the grease HOT! But I was searching for chicken and shrimp inside them ... but they were LOADED with minced ...and I mean MINCED carrot and shredded cabbage. Carrot was over-powering. Killed any other flavor That may have been inside there... but points for freshness and crispiness. But the star of that plate was actually the quick pickled veggies they served them with! Pepper strips, carrot & Onion in a vinegar sweet pickle brine. Sooooo good! Crisp and tangy. Polished ALL of that off! They have lunch specials that ranged from $7.25 to About $8.95 that comes with soup and egg roll and rice choice. And regular menu choices all the time... typical Chinese Food Faire. I've had several dishes in the past and even a Puu Puu platter to share, I've never been disappointed here ... a few asides... I was surprised how GOOD the appetiser Shrimp Toast is! And their appetiser Asian Pork Ribs, while $11.00, you get like 6 and they are very plentiful and delicious! There may only be 1-2 people waiting tables so be patient ... it seems the pandemic and free unemployment money for two years may have affected them as far as getting help, but be patient, they are super friendly and it's worth the short wait for fresh delicious food!

    Customer Receipt and menu, stating all entree's come with rice.

    I came to Hunan Palace, asked to order to-go. I ordered the Vegetable Rice Noodle, under the vegetarian selection, (picture included) Anyhow I was going to order an additional soup, because the platter comes with rice. I asked to make sure, and the server told me it does not, that everything under the vegetarian section comes with rice, except the platter I was ordering. I informed him the menu said "ALL ENTREE'S", and he said yes but not that one. I asked why and he said because it's a noodle. I informed him the menu said otherwise. He was a little crass, and kept saying no. So reluctantly I said "I guess let me have a side of rice". The male server could care less because it's not his money. He then looked at the menu to verify that it said all entree's, and blew it off. It's not the fact that the platter was $8.95 plus tax, but that I had to pay an additional amount for something the menu stated comes with the platter. How much is it going to cost them to add the rice VS loosing a customer forever. I worked in the restaurant industry for many years in many cities, and if there's one thing you honor it's your prices within reason, and your menu. Especially when similar items for the same price, under the same category come with rice. I'm not asking for gold plated truffles here, just basic fried rice. Moreover; reasonable customer satisfaction is everything! Especially for a side of rice, that the menu says comes with the platter. I've been coming here for about 2 years now, needless to say my will not be returning. A simple side of rice cost them a returning customer.

    General Tao. Yum!

    Wow this place is surprisingly good! I've driven by sooo many times and just figured there's no way El paso's Chinese can be any good. Although nearly completely empty at prime time on a Friday night (fueling my friend's suspicion that this might be some type of front), I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the restaurant itself. We ordered crab rangoons (giant and delicious) and the pan fried dumplings for appetizers and split General Tao's chicken. The food came out fast and hot. The dumplings were plump and filling (although I thought they were a little bland so I had to go heavy on soy). The General Tao's plate was fantastic. The meat perfectly crispy while still tender. Definitely best I've had in a while. The service was solid but seriously there was only one other table of people present so not exactly a high standard. Looked like a family operation as the "bartender" was the waiter and host. One negative is they don't serve any alcohol but hey if you want cocktails just walk over to Tradecraft next door. Hunan palace was impressively good. The restaurant itself was clean and working hard to give that Chinese visual aesthetic. With one (totally awesome) exception. They were playing hard rap for music. Not the generic oriental music one hears at most Chinese place. I honestly thought it was kinda badass.

    You can sit wherever you want when you walk in, I kinda stood around for a bit till I was informed. Really big, bright place. Definitely nice for a date. If you have small children the women's restroom does have a changing table inside, not the gentleman's though. Food comes in big portions. I recommend for two people the casual dinner. Rice, egg rolls, and two entrees for $11.99 per person. Drinks are extra. I had the Yu Hsiang pork, even though it has a pepper next to the name meaning it is spicy I did not think it was spicy at all. You can ask for mango iced too or raspberry, they have different varieties.

    We found a staple in our broccoli and beef. I guess that's just the norm for El Paso, there was another place we tried two years ago and they had a staple in their food. Never ordering from here again.

With mashed potatoes and veggie medley, and soup and iced tea for just $12.95! Well JACKPOT! I ordered and this soup came first it was a chickeny flavored tomato broth with tortilla strips and melty white cheese. The broth was WAAAAY to salty. But I liked the concept. It had no veggies or any meaning it. So I ate out the chips and cheese and I would have liked to enjoy that broth but it was so so salty I just could not. When my plate came it was a nice spiced grilled ground round Pattie covered in hot brown gravy with thin sliced onions and small thin sliced fresh mushrooms. Homemade real mashed potatoes, and veggies mix of corn, carrots, peas, and green beans. If it had a dinner roll, it would have been dinner at my house growing up any night of the week. It was so good, the veggies could have used some butter on them. The gravy was great on the meat and potatoes. Sorry I didn't get a pic of that plate, but I was so hungry I just dug in and by the time I thought of a pic, it was half way gone. The clock inside isn't winning any beauty contests. It's still same as it's always been. I think maybe I'd set all the clocks to the correct time or the correct time somewhere and make sure they all worked if possible or had good batteries. Be great if the coco clocks, if any, went off every hour. Bring some more character to the old place, and favorite of many. Come get dinner some after noon or late afternoon. It's a great deal... there were only 2-3 other tables when I got there and when I left no one was there . So you can definitely come get a good cup of Joe and some good food in the afternoon, it's not just for breakfast, which it IS FAMOUS FOR.

I kept it classic with waffles, bacon, and eggs--and it absolutely hit the mark. The waffles were light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, the bacon was cooked just right, and everything came out fresh and satisfying. Simple comfort food done right. But what really elevated the experience was the atmosphere. They had live musical entertainment by Louie, who was incredible. He played a mix of hits from yesterday and today, moving effortlessly between country & western, contemporary favorites, and traditional Spanish songs. His versatility created a warm, lively environment that both staff and customers clearly enjoyed--it added something special you don't find everywhere. Service was just as impressive. Our server, XAY, had a bright, welcoming smile and provided outstanding service from start to finish. They offered great suggestions on local favorites and specials, which made the experience feel personal rather than routine. The vibe overall is relaxed, inviting, and very "El Paso"--a place where you can sit, enjoy your meal, and stay a while. Overall: Delicious, well-executed brunch classics Live music that enhances the experience (not overwhelms it) Exceptional, friendly service Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere Would I go back?

I went in for brunch, and one place that absolutely deserves a visit is The Junction Brunch House. The restaurant is set inside a literal house, which gives it a cozy, welcoming feel from the moment you walk in. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. As for the food? Ay Dios mio! Outstanding. I ordered Big T's Texas Breakfast: two eggs any style, bacon, and pancakes or French toast. I chose scrambled eggs and pancakes. The presentation was impressive, looking more like something you'd expect at a high-end hotel restaurant. The eggs were folded neatly, omelet-style, into a triangle and cooked perfectly--flavorful and fluffy. The bacon was crispy yet juicy, just right. The pancakes were a four-stack, light and fluffy with a beautiful griddle finish. They came with butter mixed with brown sugar and cinnamon, and a side of and maple syrup, which took them to another level. Junction has locally made hot sauce on the table, and fair warning as both packed some serious heat and paired perfectly with the eggs. What really stood out was the attentive service. The staff checked in regularly, made sure I had everything I needed, and seemed to refill my coffee right on cue. While brunch alone makes it worth the trip, the menu offers much more than breakfast. I'm already looking forward to going back to try their lunch options. If you're in El Paso and craving a comfortable atmosphere with excellent food and service, this is a spot you shouldn't miss.
