    Chicken with Broccoli
    Eddy M.

    Been coming here for over 10yrs and this place never disappoints. Food always taste good & service always good & fast. Ambiance is nice, small corner basic establishment.

    Beef & Broccoli lunch
    Carla A.

    Jade Cafe gets a strong ok from me. The beef and broccoli was meh. It was too salty. But I really did enjoy the egg roll. I also had rice to come with my meal and I didn't enjoy it very much. It was fired way to hard. However, my coconut smoothie was amazing and it might be the reason I come back in the future. Also, I loved the service. The employees were nice, the place was clean and I got my lunch in a timely manner. When I go back, I'll make sure to try another dish.

    33. Lemon Chicken Lunch Combo
    Holly H.

    I don't crave American Chinese food very often, but I was in the mood for it and decided to give this place a try. The restaurant was clean, the portions are large, but the food was only okay. The lemon chicken was more like a sugary glaze for a pastry, but the chicken itself was very good. The veggies with garlic sauce and ribs were good as well. The prices are very affordable. I may give this place a shot again in the future to try out their other dishes.

    Chicken and Broccoli combo with brown sauce
    Jessica M.

    Best Chinese food ever, everything was fresh, huge portions enough to share and everything came out hot! Perfect flavor and everything was cooked perfectly. The staff is nice and the establishment is extremely clean and pleasing to the eye. 10/10 we will be back and dining in. They also have a drive through window you can order ahead and pick up for an night in!

    Kung Pao Chicken combo
    Clint M.

    My wife and I swung by here for dinner on a Friday night, kind of on a whim since our original dinner plans fell through. We'd gotten a recommendation from a friend that this place was worth trying, and the friend was right. The place was mostly empty when we pulled up, with one person waiting on a to go order and no one dining in. Only one other group ended up dining in during the entire time we were there, but there were several more to go orders that came through. As such, service was very attentive since we were pretty much the only ones eating in. The Kung Pao Chicken combo was pretty filling, served with fried rice and an egg roll. My wife went with the Mongolian Beef, which was served the same way in a combo. She really seemed to enjoy her meal, but I felt mine suffered from the "more vegetable than chicken" issue I've seen from a lot of Chinese restaurants outside of China Town. Still, the food was pretty good for the price, and if you're in the area, this is definitely a place worth checking out for lunch or dinner.

    THe entire feast for the kids.  General, Orange, Mongolian and h/S soup

    UPDATE: The star of…read morethe menu is the boiled fish! Always numbing and tender pieces of fish. The spicy cubes chicken was crisp and tasty. The green beans were as expected. We ordered two of the sweet & sour ribs. Always goes so well with rice. The shrimp were exceptional - big, pump, tender and full of flavor! The only issue was the amount of oil used, even after we asked for less oil. I guess they need lots of oil to make Sichuan dishes. Our son came home after a big Cantonese dinner in Chinatown and tried the shrimp, then the other dishes. He couldn't stop from having a little second meal! Said the dishes were really good. We must have picked a good combination of dishes as I loved this meal!

    OVERVIEW: this is a homey small restaurant. It is simple, cozy but spacious enough to feel relaxed…read more FOOD QUALITY: Not very convincing. Very heavy handed with salt even though the person in my party that placed the order specifically told the waitress to tone down on the salt. We also asked for no MSG but they turned to sugar instead so the dishes were a little altered beyond recognition. Specifically, I ordered their Szechuan peppercorn beef. As far as I know, this dish is always all savory and there should not be any sweetness. But, when I took the first bite, it was mildly sweet. Weird! Looks like for the rest of the dishes that has sauce, they used the same dark colored sauce; so, they tasted the same. Not a lot of imagination and creativity in their cooking. SERVICE: They are quite attentive in this area. So, I would give them 4 out of 5 stars in this area. VERDICT: Would I return? Probably not. When it comes to Chinese foods, the dishes need to be superior in their taste. You really need to have skills to survive as a Chinese restaurant.

On the table was a holder with chopsticks, soup spoons and napkins. It was a chilly, blustery day - I so enjoyed the Henan-style lamb with noodles soup! Three kinds of noodles: wide, hand-pulled with a nice chew; thin, textured tofu; crystal. Happy with the two quail eggs. There was a nice amount of wood ear fungus, kelp? and fresh cilantro. The lamb was tender and the broth flavorful. I saved half of the soup for dinner and chowed down on the pork bun. It was hot and toasty from the bun being grilled. Had to eat it right away as the bun was crispy crunchy and the sauce inside will eventually make the bottom mushy. "Yum!"

Service is just a typical hole in the wall type of restaurant experience you will get. You pick a seat, hurry up and order, they bring out the food and you go up to the register to pay when you're ready. Don't expect any first-class customer service from here. Have extra caution if you have any food allergens as they don't believe in people with food allergies. Henan Lamb Stewed Noodle - surprisingly not gamey so they cleaned the meat well. Soup is great for cold days or I guess hot days if you're an older Asian auntie/uncle who believe you should be eating hot food when it's hot out. Not for me who doesn't enjoy lamb but was tolerable since it wasn't gamey. Shanxi Oil Noodle - what they are known for. I love the slightly chew and wide hand-pulled noodles. It was almost perfect for me but one of the best in Houston metro area. After eating, you can walk it off at the market or get some sweets from another place within the shopping mall.

    I first discovered Dumpling World through their Clear Lake location, and I liked it so much that I…read morehad to try the Sugar Land location as well. Even on weekdays, this place is consistently busy. The staff are always very friendly, the food tastes fresh and made to order, and I have never had an unpleasant dining experience here. Whenever I come here, I usually order the Cheese Crab Puffs. While this is a fairly standard appetizer at many restaurants, I genuinely think Dumpling World does them better than most places I have tried. The wrapper is lighter and airier while still staying crispy, and the filling leans slightly sweet, which I personally really enjoy. Of course, I also have to order the Pork Xiao Long Bao. The wrappers are impressively thin, and each dumpling is packed with soup. Another must order is the Pan Fried Pork and Scallion Thumb Buns. They are addictively crispy on the outside and filled with juicy, flavorful pork. On this visit, I also tried the Eggplant and Minced Pork Noodles for the first time, and I would definitely order them again. The pork and eggplant were very flavorful, and the hand pulled noodles were thin and satisfying, though slightly overcooked. The sauce was also a bit oily, but that is fairly common with dishes like this, so it did not bother me much. It is just something to keep in mind. Overall, Dumpling World continues to be one of my favorite casual Chinese spots. Between the consistently fresh food, friendly service, and standout dumplings, this is a place I would gladly keep coming back to.

The pork xiao long bao was DELICIOUS; possibly one of my favorites I've ever had! There is a generous amount of soup in there with amazing flavor and unlike many other XLB, it doesn't taste mushy and the broth is very clear. I would come back and just order a bunch of this! We also ordered the beef noodle soup which was just ok to me, the beef had a lot of fatty pieces and less meat and the soul could've haf more flavor. We also ordered the stir-fried green beans with minced pork which was also just ok; the beans were a little on the hard side and we felt that it needed to be cooked longer. For dessert, we saw their specials menu at the counter had chocolate hazelnut dumplings, so we ordered them at the end so it was fresh and hot. It came with 6 dumplings with nutella filling. They were delicious but the amount of nutella definitely starts to hit you after awhile and you have a big mouthful of nutella (not complaining though). These were best when they first brought it out, so definitely wait to order these until the end. Will definitely be coming back for their xiao long bao!!

Whether it was weekend dim sum or an evening Canto feast with fresh seafood, I was simply thankful for the option. Now that option is toast since Regal closed last month. Looks can be deceiving. The exterior makes me think of a fitness joint more so than a Cantonese spot. Stepping inside is a complete contrast, with a mix of specialty murals, modern decor with a contemporary edge. There were plenty of large group tables, which made this place perfectly ideal for a feast gathering. Bathrooms were also clean, but this is the only place I've seen that had ice cubes all the urinals. (#1) Dim Sum was solid. The highlights for me were their stir fried XO rice rolls, which had a nice char and some good flavor. The Malay style rolls were also suprrisingly good and I felt strongly about their bbq pork puffs, durian rolls, and glutinous pork dumplings shaped to look like pears. The shrimp dumplings, beef balls, and spare ribs were average at best, I was also very impressed with their overall variety and the fact they had an extremely defined picture menu. The Canto speaking staff was friendly and the parking was plentiful. While the food wasn't all a hit, I do think there was some potential, which was not realized in the end. I am sincerely hoping another Canto spot will emerge in the Land of Sugar. __________ (#1) Yes, really.

Price - for dim sum, we've paid roughly $26/person, but that included tax and tips. So that amount is arbitrary. It depends on how many dishes you may order, and keep in mind that we had a lot of left over food though. We also had a whole duck in this price, so not your typical dim sum order. I imagine it would be less if we would just stick to dim sum only. 3. Ambiance - this place is industrial looking. Modern and pretty hip. It's not massive. Not sure if it's the same owner as the previous Regal on 59. But it's a smaller footprint than the previous location. Dress code here is casual. 4. Food - I will say that the dim sum here is legit Hong Kong style dim sum. This is delicious and not greasy. I really like their CHA-SIU-BAO (BBQ Pork Buns), HA-GAO (shrimp dumplings), SIU-MEI (Pork and Shrimp dumplings), and Egg Tarts. Because it was our first time there, we wanted to try out their roast duck. It is also very authentically made. There are definitely other dishes that were good too, but these were the few worth mentioning. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area appears clean. SUMMARY - I recommend this place and will likely return for more dim sum in the future.

I've tried the Galleria location as well, but this review is strictly for Sugar Land--and it definitely has its own vibe.

That combination is harder to find than you'd think, and they execute both perfectly. The food is consistently excellent. The chicken fried rice deserves special mention--when you order it, be prepared for a massive portion. It comes piled high on the plate in a huge, rounded mound, and it's very good. You absolutely get your money's worth here. As for the ambiance, it's much more no-frills than the Galleria location. The dining area is small, with seating lined up and an almost direct view into the kitchen. The staff usually consists of a cook and a female cashier who also acts as the server. She's efficient, focused, and pretty much all business--no small talk, but the service gets the job done. If you're looking for fancy, this isn't it. But if you want great portions, solid flavors, and a reliable neighborhood Chinese spot, Chang's in Sugar Land delivers every time.

I remember their generous portions and great variety of dishes served during that event. Since I was in the neighborhood during my dinner time in Sugarland, I decided to swing by before the restaurant closes for the night. I wanted to try Hawaiian Chicken that I saw the menu online.

I think that was my first time to try sweet corn soup and it was pleasurable (4). I wanted more of it. The entree arrived about 10 minutes later. The plate had the garlic chicken on it along with fried rice and an egg roll to boot. This entree was good tasting and I mixed the remaining garlic sauce with the rice to improve the rice taste as it was sort of bland to me. I liked this entree and rated it a 3. Our table service was very good. While I give a 3 score here, I would be happy to return to try another dish.
