You can eat anything on the menu and they make it fresh to order. You can even sit up near the chef's and watch if you want too. My kids love to go an sit and watch them make our food. And they are teenagers so they can REALLY eat. Yes, its all you can eat and they really put this to the test. lol Last time I went, my son got the all you can eat lunch, it was $15. He ordered 4 orders of crab puffs, an order of general chows chicken, 2 orders of shrimp noodles, and about 7 full sushi rolls.... he ate it all. So crazy I know. But yeah....

We Love Xin Xin in McAllen, Texas. The flavors are great! No other restaurant compares to them!…read moreEven in the big cities!

XinXin is a local mom and pop Asian restaurant that bills itself as "asian fusion cuisine.". The…read moreambiance is pleasant and clean, but also homey and informal. I noticed one of the cooks was using a dining room table to prepare vegetables while watching a video on her phone. The lady who took my order at the front counter also played the role of server. The counter was cluttered. When I walked in, no one acknowledged me for a few minutes. The lady was talking to someone - whether a friend or client I could not tell. When he left, she finally turned to me and asked if I wanted take-out or dine in. I can't say she was either welcoming nor friendly, but once I stated my intentions were to dine in she led me to a table and handed me the menu. Xin Xin does not have a buffet. But that ensures that everything is made fresh as you order it. They offer dine in, take out, and have a drive through window. Their menu is pretty extensive with Vietnamese, Japanese, and Chinese entrees.. some of which I have never heard and would need coaching to pronounce. I wanted something more familiar, and ordered the Triple Delight lunch special. The lunch special came with my choice of soup, and either white or fried rice. I ordered the hot and sour soup and fried rice. The lunch special portion was generous but I was hungry and finished it all. I can't say the food quality stood out as extra special, but it was very good and I enjoyed it. The Triple Delight was supposed to have beef, chicken, and shrimp, but I did not detect any beef. There was plenty of the chicken and shrimp. The menu lists beverages as canned soft drinks, a couple of juices like coconut or lychee, and hot or iced tea. I asked the server if the iced tea was fresh brewed and she assured me it was. When she brought out a bottle of Gold Peak sweet iced tea I wondered if she knew enough English to understand my question and what "fresh brewed" means... The Gold Peak was decent, but not the same as fresh brewed. My experience with the service and ambience was lacking. The drink was also a little disappointing. The food, however was very good and the prices were reasonable. Considering the competition, they need to up their game if they want my business.

I saw a bunch of adds on instagram and TikTok to try this place, saying it was better than Fujiyama…read moreHibachi nearby and Trenton, and that place is very good to me so I should known when these Food Vloggers started to talk smack about another place, clearly paid to do so. The food was terrible. I'm on a diet so I opted for a white meat chicken bowl with the veggies as a base. I asked for spicy chicken and it was almost $18! The chicken was extremely dry and extremely chewy, it's like they gave me the bottom of thr barrel chicken breast and 50% of the chicken was very small in size and dried out. They doused it in hot sauce and that's the only thing I could taste. The veggies were old and didn't taste fresh at all. 90% cabbage, 5% broccoli and 5% zucchini. What a waste of money and I was extremely excited to try this place. No wonder it's not packed or anyone in their parking lot. I usually would go back and demand a refund but I was defeated for the day, working in the sun most of the day and just very busy. I wanted a nice health comfort meal and instead I threw it in the trash and went to Whataburger. Don't believe the hype, this is worst teriyaki place I've tried since those bad restaurants in the food court at the mall. Trust me people, spend you hard money elsewhere and don't fall for the ads

The tables didn't allow for my powered wheelchair to fit into a standard height table and the bar height table is too high. The food though, I ordered the orange chicken spicy and teriyaki chicken spicy. They were both delicious! I will say that if you're not used to spicy food the "spicy" option might be too spicy, maybe order the sauce on the side so you can add in as much as you'd like. I would definitely be back to order food to go!

The mango salad and egg rolls were both very good, which made me hopeful for the rest of the meal…read more Unfortunately, the Pad Thai was extremely disappointing. It tasted mostly like onions and chili, and it wasn't even close to an authentic Pad Thai. The noodles were also the wrong type, which made the dish even more disappointing. What really left a bad impression, though, was the service. After taking only one spoonful, I politely explained that I didn't like the dish and asked if they could remove it. They refused, even though it was obvious that I hadn't eaten it. I understand restaurants have policies, but a little flexibility and customer service would have gone a long way. Sadly, because of both the food and how the situation was handled, I don't plan on returning.

I will say that portion was very large for the price. The broth was chicken, but it was not great. One person is our party ordered the vermicelli noodles, and that was much better, which is why I am giving it 3 stars. Service was good as well. Overall, 3/5, probably wouldn't go back.

The vibe is amazing, the service is super friendly, and the flavors are seriously addictive! I love spicy food, so having a bunch of house-made salsa options is a HUGE win for me I could go on about the fried chicken (perfectly crispy), the super tender pork belly, the steak, or the Korean-inspired tacos with kimchi and wild flavor combos--but you really just need to try it yourself! Chips n guac, chips n queso, elote, nachos, Korean inspired tacos and rice bowls and loaded fries !!!! Salads and brussel sprouts - everything is a must try

One thing that really stood out was the variety of vegetarian options--they had so many choices, and they definitely didn't feel like an afterthought. We tried several different dishes, including crispy tofu, veggie bowls loaded with fresh vegetables, and vegetarian bao buns, and every bite was delicious. The vegetables were fresh, the sauces were packed with flavor, and the portions were generous. Whether you're vegetarian or just looking to try something different, this is definitely a place worth visiting. The food was fresh, the service was quick, and everything exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely be coming back!

My first impression of Ronin Ramen was that it was asian inspired restaurant. When I first walked…read morein, there were anime posters and asian inspired decor. When I was seated, it suddenly turned into a sports bar with a small touch of asian inspired decor. I asked for a cup of water, but found out they only serve bottled water at $3. I ordered, not expecting much as the restaurant and service were both average. I did not expect it, but, wow, the food was delicious! The plates were very very well served. The ramen could have used more protein, but for the price was okay. As most ramens, it didn't have much flavor but the hot chili oil they provided added the perfect touch to the meal. The orange chicken with stir fry - not on the menu, I had to ask for substitutions - was absolutely delicious!! The noodles were great, but did need the chili oil to add that extra touch of flavor. I would definitely go back! Not for aesthetics, not for the service, but for the food. It truly made coming to Ronin's worth it.
