Where the soul of Louisiana meets the heart of Texas!…read more Such a great find! Worth the drive! We came across The Pelican House while staying at a hotel in the area. We're not from Duncanville--we traveled in for sports--and were looking for somewhere good to eat. After seeing all the great reviews, we decided to give it a try, and I'm SO glad we did! We walked in with a party of 7 and were seated right away with no wait. Our server, Lou, took care of us all night and was absolutely wonderful. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, and he made the whole experience even better. And the FOOD. We started with the fried alligator appetizer, which was such a fun thing to try and was delicious. For our meals, we had the blackened shrimp & rice, chicken and waffles, and fried shrimp, and everyone at the table was raving about their food. We finished everything off with the beignets, because obviously we had to. We all left completely stuffed, happy, and already talking about coming back. It's not exactly a quick drive for us, but we would absolutely make the trip back to The Pelican House. Great food, great service, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. If you're in the area, put this place on your list!

I ordered through Uber Eats…read more The fish and shrimp were good, but overall the meal was disappointing. The gumbo was too salty and did not smell fresh. The chips were packaged underneath the hot fish, which made them soggy, so they should have been packaged separately. I asked for coctail and tartar and got a minimal amount of a coctail sauslce and some other sauce at was yellow. We didnt bother trying it. The Cajun rolls also were not spicy at all and lacked the flavor I expected. While the fish and shrimp were enjoyable, the other dishes took away from the overall experience.

I feel like this is a conversation that should not even have to be had. If you are cooking soul food, I need you to cook with fresh ingredients. It is the backbone of what we do! I swear to God if it could be canned, they had it on the buffet. Canned fruit. Canned greens. Canned green beans. Canned sweet potatoes. Canned peaches. Boxed stuffing with too much sage. CANNED EVERYTHING. And the mac-n-cheese was from a box. Seriously?! I cannot express how disappointed I was with my meal. Even the sweet tea was from a powder vs. being brewed properly. The biggest insult had to be the proteins. The pig feet were tough. The fried porkchops were just paper thin. Heck, the breading on it was thicker than the meat itself! I don't want to seem mean because this is someone's baby, and people obviously love it considering that it stayed pretty full, but I will not be coming back. Again, the staff was awesome, but you lose me when you do peach cobbler with phyllo dough, and have the sheer nerve to cut up store bought cakes and serve them like they are supposedly homemade. It would be a cold day in hell before I ever presented someone with a store bought pound cake. You have to have pride somewhere.

There is a menu featured on each table from QR code. Service was less desirable. Tonight the tables in back near the (3) televisions had to flag down their server; she was super busy with cocktail orders. She was somewhat annoyed when stopped, in my opinion saying telling our table will get your food out whenever ready. Food seems to be secondary in my opinion. My friends had to wait 45 minutes for their fried catfish, fries, and wings to arrive. The table next to our booth asked us if food always take an eternity... we were unsure since it was our first time here. Natural Chain band was fantastic! Will return for the Live bands.

I stopped by King China in Cedar Hill and overall had a mixed experience…read more The prices are reasonable, and I really like that they offer both lunch specials and combo meals. I decided on a combo meal with Chicken Lo Mein, Orange Chicken, and fried rice. The Orange Chicken and fried rice were flavorful and not bad at all. However, the Chicken Lo Mein had a completely different outcome. As a lo mein lover, I was definitely disappointed. The noodles had a very distinct seafood taste that I found unpleasant. I'm not sure if the noodles are prepared in a seafood broth or near seafood dishes, but the taste was strong enough that it completely turned me off from the lo mein. On the positive side, the customer service was kind and attentive, and the restaurant was clean, which I always appreciate. Would I go back? Time will tell. I may give King China another try, but next time I'll definitely be choosing something other than the lo mein.

It felt a bit like the cheapest Las Vegas buffet you could imagine (minus the cheap or free booze) The main reason I'll downvote this restaurant is that a fistfight broke out at the front door while friends and I were waiting to pay. No kidding! Look, I don't know all the details, but it definitely lent a super sketchy vibe to an already completely "mid" experience. I won't be back.

I haven't had Genghis Grill in YEARS, but I decided to give it another try but I'm glad I did!…read moreWhen I first walked in, I was a little reluctant because the place was pretty empty with only two other people eating. But what convinced me to stay was how clean everything was. The restaurant looked well-kept, so I decided to go ahead and give it a shot. I created my own bowl with chicken, steak, sausage, cabbage, corn, red and green bell peppers, pineapple, fried rice, egg, and noodles, added various seasonings, and finished it with my own little sauce combination of orange + teriyaki + sweet heat. BABYYYYY... It was cooked to perfection, and the FLAVOR was definitely there! That sweet, savory, slightly spicy sauce combination worked perfectly with everything in my bowl. I was also really impressed with the portion size. They definitely didn't skimp, and between the amount of food and how good everything tasted, I left very satisfied. After being off my food radar for years, Genghis Grill has officially earned an invitation back into the rotation! FLAVORCHASER APPROVED!
