As I expected, what a disappointment in service here. The food is good however the service is so bad here. You have to pretty much get up and get things yourself , from drink refills to ordering additional food. Just horrible , not to mention that we found a piece of plastic in one of our food dishes read more

I come here all the time for the Roasted Duck and Roasted Pork. These are special on their bbq area. The duck is so well marinated and the pork skin is extremely crispy. They're so good with cutting the meat in a way that no tiny bones are broken. Highly recommend it. Make sure you pay with cash ! read more

I fell in love with this place right when I entered. The atmosphere, the food, the service was astonishing. I got the sweet and sour chicken and fried rice I know very basic but it was extremely tasty highly recommend. read more

Whenever I'm in Houston, I always come here to order their roast duck and ga qui phi. I haven't tried other dishes yet but based on the flavors of these 2 dishes, I'm sure the rest of the menu are tasty as well. read more

Service was good and friendly, especially the hostess; she was very patient even though it was a busy night. Food was good. We got wonton soup, seafood hot pot, roast duck, pea stem with garlic and salt and pepper shrimp. All food came out swiftly. We especially liked the roast duck. Would recommend this restaurant. read more

A favorite when I have the time and am I the area! Service is not the greatest. They at times seem rude and dismissive and you can feel like they've forgotten about you at times. Pro tip: order everything you want at once otherwise you'll be waiting ages to add anything later. But the food is worth it in my opinion. Some favorites: wonton soup, imperial spring rolls, chicken curry, fried rice and the best general tso chicken. read more

I came here for lunch and it isn't the way it used to be. It is not clean, my seat had rice on it from the previous family before us, and the service and food is subpar. I ordered their wonton soup and it had absolutely no flavor. I wouldn't come here ever again. read more

My experience here has always been okay! I've never really had trouble. They were attentive and had always listened to my requests. I would recommend going early or when it's not busy for the best service. I always go for lunch and get their pork and duck with rice. It's a good price for what it is to be honest. If you want thit heo quay (fried crispy pork), Go early as soon as they open. IT IS DELICUOUS! Their vit quay (roasted duck) is good as heck too. So savory. Take a pound of each home and go to TOWN. Or eat there if you want. If you wanna be in food coma, that's exactly what you should get!! read more

Good duck. Big Menu. Service was ok with some waiting. Hong Kong Vibe atmosphere. 4.5/5

Food is probably on the plus side in term of being fresh and tasty. Minus 1 star for shady neighborhood.

Rating 2.5 It's your typical Chinese/Vietnamese restaurant you'd dine at anytime you want Chinese food, and not 'fast food'. Their focus is on the food they serve, not so much the customer service that goes with it. All the dishes I've tried have been good and the dishes are decently priced. It's in a good location and there's plenty of parking. Service is a hot or miss. I've come when it's taken 5+ minutes for us to wave someone to come over and get our drink orders. English is weak most of the time. Aside from the service, I definitely recommend eating here, good, cheap, Chinese/Vietnamese food. read more

Good Chinese/Vietnamese restaurant. Food is good here. Service is typical of a Chinese restaurant. Don't expect to be treated as the best thing cause you're not! It's business. Order what you want. Ask for what you need. If they don't have it that move on. People want to be made to feel special. You are not! Get over it. If you want good Chinese food here it is! If you want to feel like mom loves you, than go to your moms house. read more

Disappointed with the salted fish shrimp fried rice. Kind of bland and the shrimps are so tiny. Not only its tiny, tiny shrimps but sparse as well. Barely any shrimps in there. read more

Walnut shrimp was good. The beef ribs hot pot with egg plant also good. Wonton noodle soup was the best of the things we ordered.

This place was completely empty and the service is still bad. I have to keep asking the waiter to get me water or anything constantly. Also FYI the store also add their own tip into your order which is ridiculous!!! I don't recommend this place at all! read more

I dont really like the taste of food here. I spent my lunch time here and i am not a fan,tbh. I had ordered Ga Quy Phi but it tasted terrible, the sauce come with it disappointed me badly. I like the roast duck much better and also i got Canh Chua Ca. It also tasted nastier. Abt Banh Bot Chien is speechless. Sorry to say such bad things but they really disappointed me read more

Bad service, bad food (below average) and once we got the bill they charged us with the tip already calculated and with the bill. Which is insane, because it was a TERRIBLE experience and yet there was no option to opt out OR even pick any tip options. DO NOT GO HERE. We got here when there was barely any people, like legit only two customer, and when they sat us down, we order four meal but the table was too small to include all the dishes. When we ask to change, they agreed and move to another table, however while we sat down, they brought us some of our meals but no water. We had to ask them for the water which is like suppose to be the first thing given after you order your meal? Anyway, that overall experience shouldn't be that big of a deal, in till we got our foods and needed assistance on some of the stuff like more napkins, another chopsticks, and what certain dishes were (because there was food items that were included with the meal that we didn't know). However, there was never any server around and we only ask them when they came around but it like there wasn't even ALOT of customer at all in our area, just two table and us. And no server around. And when there were server, they would stand on the side and look from a far distance and then disappear. So it was hard to get a hold of them. Food aside, It was okay. The fish soup we order (Canh Chua) had no flavor, literally just hot. You can sometimes taste the sour flavoring from it, but it just taste spicy and sour. Like no fish or strong aromatic flavoring from the soup. The food was okay, it wasn't special. Taste below average for all the dishes we order. Anyway I won't come here again. I always thought this place was mediocre at best but this experience just felt like it had downgraded bad. Everything didn't feel clean, food was alright and service was bad. There just so many better food option around this area, Sinh Sinh would be the last option. read more

The service was slow, the duck was uncooked, we waited for a long time, we also asked multiple times for our food but it took long too come out, they added an automatic tip because of a party over 5 people and that left me unsatisfied and I'm normally nice but this place leaves me no other choice but to complain I WILL NEVER EAT HERE EVER AGIAN!!! And for the people who's reading, the place is trash!!! read more

Sinh Sinh has been a staple in Houston's Chinatown for a long time now. It's been there for as long as I can remember, but I hadn't been until recently. There's certainly a reason why it's lasted that long. It serves up some dang delicious Chinese food. Last weekend, I arrived for a big party, and we ordered banquet style dinner. We went ALL OUT. I'm talking lobster, steamed flounder, peking duck, bird's nest... all the classics. I was breathing hard, trying to manage my bursting stomach by the end of it. All the classics were fantastic. Peking duck was fatty, juicy, and crispy. The lobsters were huge and immersed in the best gingery soupy sauce. The steamed flounder was fresh, light, and flavorful. Unfortunately, not all the dishes were that great. The fried pork spare ribs had an unexpectedly texture when biting into it - like there wasn't really much meat to it. The flavors were all off too. There was another mussel/tofu/pork belly combo dish, which didn't impress me either. I was excited by the pork belly until I actually tried it. Chewy and disappointing. My main complaints though were the environment. It's not a very great atmosphere to eat in. I mean, I've been around Chinatown a lot, so I'm not nit-picking about the vibe. I think I have a pretty reasonable good gauge of what to expect in Chinatown. The tables though just did nto feel clean - they had an unpleasant stickiness to them. The servers also didn't serve any water unless we asked? They brought out all these glasses with 2L soda bottles, but had to be asked specifically to bring pitchers of water to the table. Really, quite baffling. Overall, I'd be happy to eat here again and get my fill of childhood favorites and classics. They've definitely got a lot of room for improvement though, and it's not a place I'd highly recommend. read more

Beef and broccoli wasn't tasty at all. Just tasted like salty meat and the broccoli was wilted. The house fried rice wasn't tasty either. This place used to have some of the best food in the city. It's gone downhill. read more

Not sure what's going on here, but service was down the drain. Food has changed meaning their recipes have changed. Not sure if we'll be back anytime soon. We ordered a canh chua ca, ca kho to and crispy tofu shrimp. The tofu tastes completely different. It's not as good as it used to be. Our soup looked huge, but there was barely any fish and then to top it off our ca kho came out when we got our check. That's not even the worse part, the ca kho was burnt. Luckily, another waiter (we tracked her down) noticed this and told us she will take care of the ca kho if we want another one. I was like uh no, we already ate our lunch by then, whats the point? We were trying to have a quick and good lunch, but it turned into a long and not so appetizing incomplete meal. read more

This was possibly the worst food and worst service I have ever experienced. We came for lunch. It was not busy. Only two other tables. The server kept us waiting and took the order for the table that came in after us. When our food came out it was cold. Not room temperature like it had been sitting our, but cold as in it came out of a refrigerator. Our server was rude and told us it was busy and the food was cold. What?!?! Please save yourself the trouble and do NOT go here. There are so many other good restaurants in the area. read more

CHECK YOUR TAB!!!! I go out to eat too much to get played. Took wife and kids out to eat at Sinh Sinh and they almost got me. Everything was going fine until I asked for my tab. My waiter brought me my tab (only 2nd time I seen him the whole time I was there), but as he walks away with my payment another waitress come running up to give me another tab. She ends up running my card and brings it back to me and I noticed the total was different. She had charge me $1.00 for a bowl of lemons when I asked for only a couple for Lemon&salt/pepper for my soft shell crab dish. And then she added automatic gratuity to it too. (For 4 people and she wasn't even my waitress) I wasn't gonna let get me. Went up there and talk to cashier to refund my payment and give me the correct tab and let me put my own tip. Needless to say, they didn't get as much tip as they did when they autogratted me. Be careful when you eat here and check your tab thoroughly!!!! read more

Horrible Service! Waited over 30 minutes for our order, it turn out the dish that we order was NOT available! The server just told us casually, that we waited for nothing wasted our time without any apology! Then we order a different dish and waited another 15 minutes, it was serve to us ice cold like it was just taken out of the fridge! Wow! If I can give this place no star I would! read more

Sinh Sinh - Roasted Duck And Steamed Chicken With Rice - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

went to this place on a recommendation from my neighbor. Horrible customer service, ordered takeout, and when I got home, the food was not worth it. I think for any Chinese restaurant, if you can't master, shrimp fried rice and a rice cake, then you're in the wrong business. Mine was dry, rice hard and flavorless, with rationed shrimp. When I went to get my food up at the corner, the lady practically threw it at me. Not thank you for coming, not come back, nothing. Very rude. won't be going back ever. I will forgive my neighbor. read more

Service is alright. Food is decent. I like this place because it's open late especially since I work in the restaurant industry. It's usually pretty jumping at night. read more

I love the jelly coconut!! It's a must ! It's so weirdly delicious. It makes you want to chew it and at the same time you can't! Very funny texture in your mouth. I always get one when I'm in china town. read more

Sinh Sinh - The waiting list - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I was able to bring home a duck from Sinh Sinh and honestly, it's been the best roast duck I've had in Houston so far. The duck was super moist and juicy, with the fat rendered just right, and skin was lightly crispy and flavorful. Even if you're not dining in at Sinh Sinh, there's a take out section of various Chinese roast meats that looks amazing- rows of duck, char siu, roast pork, and soy sauce chicken among other meats. I'd definitely recommend grabbing some of their meats for a potluck or party. read more

WE LOVE SINH SINH ! Food is healthy and tastes so good. is the 2nd time we came here and it was awesome! Great Service. Ask for ROCK... Excellent! read more

So I had a really bad experience a couple of years ago where food and service was horrible... but this time around it wasn't half bad! It's not often that you get good service in Chinatown, but I sure did this evening! After a long day of working a double, I just wanted to eat myself into a food coma. I sure did that! Decided to stop by for a late night bite and ended up ordering half the menu! haha I was hangry and wanted a bit of everything! Food came out relatively fast so that's a plus. I was hungry and ready to dig in. So we ordered: Sweet n sour pork Cantonese style, salt toasted shrimp, banh bot chien, roasted duck, grilled chicken with macaroni, stir fried noodles, and stuffed tofu. I think? I love the grilled chicken and macaroni! It's my fav dish here. Always ask for Chinese sausage in the macaroni! So yum and yes oh so fattening! Worth it. The roasted duck was very crispy and juicy as well! Stuffed tofu was a bit bland for me. Banh bot chien was really nice a crispy, but too doughy. Need more eggs. Salt toasted shrimp here are super tasty! Lightly fried and tossed with butter and scallions! The other dishes were okay, not my favorite but worth the try! Can always count on Sinh Sinh for late night grub y'all! read more

First time here and although the menu was a bit overwhelming, the food, atmosphere and service was great. So much to choose from but I honestly don't think you can go wrong. I had the walnut shrimp and the black pepper ribs and both were delish. Servings are good portions, too. Definitely coming back. read more

The food is great but the service is horrible. They will also charge you tip when it's just one or two people. I guess that's why they feel like good service is not needed! read more

Sinh Sinh - Great English - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I really like this place for 2 good reasons IMO. First off they are on the main part of Bellaire Blvd across from the large Asian foodie complex (9889 Bellaire Blvd). They are open till 2 am. So all of us nighthawks have a good Asian restaurant open late. Second I absolutely love their Chinese sausage and salted fish fried rice. They slice their Chinese sausage thinly on an angle so its' awesome flavor really comes through when you're eating it. (Most Asian places cut their Chinese sausage in chunks - yuck for my taste buds). I have tried it adding extra salted fish but the flavors competed with the Chinese sausage a bit but I still liked it overall. Probably best to order it right off the menu. This has become my all time favorite fried rice and I make it at home now also. It's nice though to bring some home already made after a late evening out in Asiatown. Makes for a great late night snack or leftovers for the next day. They have quite a Large menu. When you walk in they have aquariums on each side with large lively shrimp on one side and varying live crustaceans or fresh fish on the other side. Actually I've taken a few videos of the lively large shrimp doing funny antics and other sea creatures but yelp at this time will only let anyone post live at the moment videos. You can't post them later when you get home. I have only tried the Chinese sausage and salted fish fried rice here at least six times. So obviously this review is limited but I've loved it each time. Btw the service has always been awesome. read more

Long lines but ridiculously fast service once seated. Extensive menu and fair prices

Have been to this restaurant many times in the past. Food is consistently ok and the service is consistently horrible.

The young guy in the front was rude!! We are regulars at this please but This is our last time going to sinh sinh! Food was ok this time. I rather take my money else where going forward. read more

the owner got krabs, bad service, rude , bad hospitality Restroom smells like urine from outside make sure to put toilet paper on the toilet seat read more

Nobody cares you. Service is very bad. I stay after 5 mins and they ask me to have a seat while the restaurant is low.

If I wanted Tan Tan I would just go to Tan Tan. This is another rip off of the same concept. It's not bad but not great. I've been here a couple times after going out and was wondering why didn't I just go to Tan Tan. Service is default bad like all other places in new chinatown. read more
