    Beef Lo Mein

    I've tried their sesame chicken. Pretty good. But today I decided to try something new. Their beef lo mein. Honestly it was very bland, no seasonings whatsoever. I couldn't really eat it, I added some of the sauce from the sesame chicken to make it palatable. Disappointed.

    Corn Soup (egg drop soup)
    John B.

    Good little spot to grab a quick bite. Take a look at the combo items. Great value! Order at the counter, servers deliver to the table. They are fast, friendly, and efficient.

    Happy Family
    Jessica B.

    Small portions & overpriced. Ordered takeout Friday night. The online menu stated the happy family came with "6" shrimp, well that's false as there were only 3 in my order. Their dine-in pictures seem to have much bigger portions, the to-go food container is super shallow. The picture is deceiving as it's probably only an inch deep. The quality of the food wasn't the best & the "egg roll" the entree came with was gross. Their "passion fruit" tea doesn't taste anything like passion tea, it was basically watered down green tea with ice for $5.15. Utterly disappointed all the way around.

    Kung Po Chicken
    Lotus H.

    Great lunch today- Panda Garden is NOT like Panda Express- don't get them confused - parking in strip center between Boudreaux's and a Subway. Next to Houston Comm. College on feeder road. Ordered the Kung Pao Chicken- $12.00, spicy and good- a lot of meat had to ask for more steamed rice (free!) to balance the quantity of chicken. A bit on the salty side tho. Veggie egg rolls were on point- skinny type with garlic seasoning made it different from others I have tried. Will be returning for more quick meals!

    Under cooked chicken

    The food sucks. Ordered the General Tso's lunch. The chicken was raw and the vegetable egg rolls were pretty much raw and mush on the inside.

    Peach lemonade. Waiting on General Tso's Chicken
    Kendrick D.

    I was looking for a place that was quiet with good food. That's exactly what I found. A nice duck off spot with really good house made peach lemonade. I ordered General T'so chicken and the food was amazing. I sat inside and ate until I was full! I also ordered fried chicken spring rolls which tasted like heaven on earth. The service was gentle and welcoming. If you ever need a good meal in the comfort of your thoughts and knowing you'll get a slice of privacy. Go here.

    Hunan Chicken. Big pieces of chicken
    Crystal John K.

    The egg rolls are good. Don't really care of the sha cha Mongolian beef. The Hunan chicken is a big breaded chuck of chicken. Fried rice is rice with splash of soy sauce. All this for $32.00. People work there are nice.

    Boba menu
    HsiaoCheng W.

    Nice friendly folks. We wanted to get some boba tea but my wife wanted it not sweet without sugar and they can't do that because it's powder. Parking was a bit difficult and limited time in some spaces.

    DO NOT EAT HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the absolute most disgusting food I have ever had and the service was even worse than the food. I ordered a regular lunch of chicken and broccoli with friend rice and was served some half cooked meat that did not even remotely resemble chicken, drenched in what I can only describe as swamp Juice. NO SAUSE, NO SEASONING, NO COLOR! I have never been more disappointed in my entire life!!!!!! And to make it all even "better" I was denied a refund of my money. This restaurant should not be in business serving uncooked food like this. You would only be wasting precious time and money coming here- and that's the plus side to probably getting salmonella and possibly dying. BEWARE!!!

    Open for dining June 2020!
    Jingyan Y.

    Great food and good prices!! Their lunch menu items are ~$10 and include crab rangoon and spring roll. Parking is easy in the lot. They have boba as well, boba pearls were chewy.

    5 Stars - Authentic Szechuan that absolutely nails the classics…read more During our short trip to Houston, as a custom, we were determined to find real Szechuan food, and luckily we found Hu's Kitchen. The location is a bit unassuming, and parking is definitely tough (the spaces are very shallow), but the second we walked through the doors and smelled the Szechuan peppercorns, I knew we were in exactly the right place. I generally judge a Szechuan restaurant by their 夫妻肺片 (Fuqi Feipian)--which they cleverly name "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" on the menu. They completely nailed it. The beef, tripe, and tendon were incredibly cohesive together, yet you could tell each component was prepared and marinated in a slightly different way to perfectly highlight its specific texture. The chili oil was right on the spot. We went through a massive bowl of rice just eating this dish alone. Honestly, if I weren't feeding a family of four, I could have just ordered that and been perfectly happy. While the Fuqi Feipian proves their skill with dry dishes, the 水煮魚片 (Fish in Szechuan Hot Chili Oil) proves their skill with wet ones. It's another must-order. The execution was flawless--we didn't just finish the tender fish chunks, we ate every last piece of cabbage soaked in that incredible chili broth. For my two daughters who can't handle the heat, we ordered the fried rice, garlic pork ribs with onion, and the 紅燒獅子頭 (Giant Meatball with Cabbage). The giant meatball was spectacular. The kids completely devoured it on their own, but I managed to steal a bite, and it instantly brought back childhood memories of exactly how this dish is supposed to taste. We also had the Dan Dan Noodles, which were great and rounded out the meal perfectly. I loved all of the dishes we tried. Should we ever find ourselves in Houston again, we will absolutely be revisiting this hidden gem.

No complaints here since we were starving from an 8 hour road trip. The Dan Dan Noodles...I had high expectations but sadly this dish fell short. I recommend Hu's Cooking to use a bigger bowl and more sauce because it was difficult to mix the noodles and the sauce wasn't...saucing, unfortunately. I wish there was more flavor in this dish. The Scallion Pancake was super over-fried and oily. See image in my review. The outer parts of the pancake were fried to a crisp and only a small circumference in the center stayed chewy. I know Chinese tends to be oily but this pancake soaked up way too much oil. Half a Peking duck: super great price for so much meat. The difficulty when eating this dish is gnawing the meat off the sharp bones of the duck. Mapo Tofu with white rice: pretty easy staple, no complaints here. Dinner on a Saturday was packed but we got seated quickly and food arrived fast.

Pork Bao's are normally my daughter fave but the soup dumplings here are her favorite. She could finish an order on her own. The service is always great. As soon as you get in they give everyone a water and a carafe of more water. There is a QR code to order and you place your order on the phone. The order goes straight to the kitchen and you can add as you go if wanted. I always thought that was pretty cool. The owner came out to say hello and ask how everything is. She even brought out a small bowl of soup for my baby to enjoy. The waitress was also very sweet and attentive. I don't live close by but will make the trip when the craving hits. Today was one of those days. The last time I was here there was no ac and not enough seating. This time it was nice and cool in and well as having new seating!

Today was my lucky day because there was plenty of parking spots and seats (although the parking lot is very small). This place is great! I understand the hype for sure. When you walk inside it's just about the smallest restraunt I've ever. Very cozy and cute vibe with smooth jazz playing on a speaker and we got our food very fast. I really enjoyed my time here. Dry Fried Green Beans 5/5- these are the best green beans I have had in my life! I am not exaggerating like I will be thinking about these green beans all week. Do not hesitate to try these. Perfectly salty and good amount of crunch still left. The flavors they used are just perfect. Colorful Beef 4/5- The texture of the beef was so tender and not chewy at all like other places. The flavor was bright and the bell peppers were cooked through well. The issue I had with this dish was the sichuan peppercorns. I was just eating and not really looking at it super closely so I got a mouth full of these peppercorns and wow it was actually horrible. Just beware because the texture of these things are god awful and I think that they should be taken out like how a bay leaf is removed before serving. It was just really intense and it almost ruined the dish for me honestly. Other than that a great dish. My mouth was so numb but worth it. Dandan noodles 2/5- This was my first time trying this dish anywhere and I did not really enjoy it at all. The sesame flavor was really strong and it wasn't really salted at all. Very strange flavor. I will not order this again, however I do believe that the execution on this dish is great. There was a lot of sauce and the noodles were cooked well. I just really wish I liked the flavor of this dish and that's a personal problem. This dish also made my mouth numb but the flavor did not make it worth it. I wanted to like these so badly but I just couldn't do it. I will be back!
