The is a large welcoming Asian bistro. There is soft music playing. We can in for a late lunch on Saturday and it was quiet. There were about six other couples having lunch as well. The service is fast and professional. Hubby had sesame chicken ( some pieces were a little tough to chew). I had the kung pao chicken ( it was quite good). Both sauces were tasty. We shared some steamed pork dumplings (delish). We also had egg drop soup and sweet and sour soup. These were good. Overall this is a solid 3. Good enough that we will come back to test other dishes. read more

We went again and loved it. The Mongolian beef and the sweet and sour shrimp are our favorites. I really enjoyed the egg rolls and the crab puffs are always yummy. This time they came with a special sauce. No issue with watery sauces anymore. This is definitely our go-to Chinese place! read more

For starters the customer service was about poor as if gets! The server had an attitude and the restaurant had JUST opened! I walked through the doors at 11:03 and got immediate attitude. I ordered the spring rolls and an Arnold Palmer for starters. I don't know where in the world you make that drink with pink lemonade. So needless to say it was too sweet. I sent the drink back the waiter did nothing more than just add more tea to the drink. I'll fast forward to my main dish, the grilled redfish. I mean..... u taste more salt and onions than anything else. Once you move all the sautéed onions off the fish you are left with 3 TINY pieces of fish and some lukewarm rice. I personally would stay away.. read more

Delicious! Quality ingredients with a lot of flavor plus good price point! Allowed substitutions without up charge to accommodate my tastes and restrictions. Restaurant was very busy too which is always a good sign! read more

Amazing! I truly enjoy this place. Restaurant is authentic yet modern. Quiet and cute. Their food is so flavorful, always fresh, and I truly love how they always add vegetables in their dishes like the orange chicken. I have also tried their broccoli beef and chicken vegetable soup. Everything is prepared deliciously and their soup had plenty of vegetables like squash, carrots even some potatoes. Just be prepared for some thick noodles in that soup (I wasnt expecting that) but it still was a great, nutritious soup. Staff is friendly, parking is easy, pricing is a little steep compared to regular asian restaurants but you're paying for quality, authentic food that you can definitely taste with generous portions! Will be coming back to keep trying more! read more

Upon delivery of my meal we started eating and felt something different that was not my beef and broccoli, it was a larva when we called they refunded one dish instead of a full receipt. I do not recommend a place that cares very little about human consumption. read more

Food was good, had Moo Goo Gai Pan and it was very tasty! For a small upcharge they upgraded my rice to pork fried rice and it was a huge serving took most of it to go. Also had hot and sour soup for an appetizer and it was very good! read more

Food was good. Have taken some to go in the past and I think it was better eating it at the restaurant service was good. Ambience ...nice and calm. Will return when I get that itch.... For Asian food not the other kinda itch read more

Had the pork lo mein and was pleasantly surprised upon receiving it. All the vegetables were cut julian perfectly to match the noodle size. That made a big difference in the overall experience of eating lo mein. Pork was tender, juicy, and also cut into thin strips. I can honestly say that this is one of the best bowls of lo mein I have had, easily in the top 3. read more

When in the area, we stop by for lunch. Consistently good! Hunan chicken was excellent. Love the veggies in the dish. Next time, will probably ask for less red peppers to knock down the spice a little. The egg roll was fried perfectly. Everything came out hot and it's always fresh on the dishes. Our server was also attentive and friendly. read more

Food is pretty good. A little expensive but worth it. Delivery is a problem. This is twice in a row that delivery was about 25 min late. When you start off with a 55 min to deliver and it takes an hour 20 min that's a long time. read more

I ordered the Orange Chicken, Beef and Broccoli, friend rice, lo mien and egg rolls- for delivery took about 45 minutes food was hot upon arrival, Tasted amazing will definitely be returning read more

Ordered door dash. The pan fried pork dumplings were very good. The crab Rangoon were disappointing, they only tasted like cream cheese. No crab taste at all. And their plain fried rice was perfect. read more

Their bean curd has a great texture and the kung pao sauce was really good. Fried rice is $1.25 upcharge but it was good. I wish there were more vegetarian appetizer options but the portion sizes are really generous so I couldn't finish it all anyways. Everyone was friendly and helpful, service was fast even though it was busy. There's plenty of seating and parking in the shared parking lot with other businesses. There were no chopsticks provided but I'm not sure if you can request them. For the price and portion sizes I'd definitely return more often. read more

Spicy Chen seems to be the only Chinese delivery near me. I'd say they are alright. You can order online from their website or call directly. They usually give out a standard 45 minute wait time. Food always comes hot. We've tried a few things from the menu: Chicken/Combination Fried Rice - started it tasty but then slowly started having less and less seasoning. I'll add soy sauce and still barely taste anything Chicken & Broccoli - This plate is good, classic sauce. I like to special request asparagus and water chestnuts be added and go light on the sauce. They always hook me up on the special request Egg Drop Soup - Has it's days where it's less fresh but when it's good it's good Egg Rolls - Fire Taiwanese Lo Mein - my man enjoys his plate now that he doesn't order the fried rice as much Singapore Lo Mein - curried up, my man didn't really like this plate Sweet & Sour Chicken - Classic and always good Moo Goo Gai Pan - Not what I expected. The sauce was clear and cloudy, the carrots and veggies where long shredded instead of whole and the chicken was also sliced really skinny but the flavor was good... Overall, it's a didn't spot. Always consistent with the delivery. read more

General Tso's , pork fried rice, Crab puffs, were delicious, however I did not get the egg roll I ordered!!

We come here at least every other week. Dumplings, broccoli beef, sesame chicken, udon noodles, fried rice, any of the soups, those are our typical go to meals. Always consistently good and hot. Even if we take it to go everything is packed neatly, big portions and still super hot by the time we get home. read more

I mostly order to go and have only dined-in maybe twice. So I will speak about my to go orders. Our to go orders are always hot and ready in a timely manner. Our normal order consists of a large wonton soup (which is so delicious), orange chicken with shrimp fried rice (I share this with my 2 children because it's so much), and peppered steak with shrimp fried rice. Everything is always good and their to-go orders are very generous. The shrimp fried rice is lovely and always leaves us satisfied. I highly recommend you give this place a try :) read more

over priced chinawok iv been to many chinese restaurants this is just a fancy version of those chinese american cafe that are on center st spencer across the street from joes. you can get better food at paradise cafe but if you want authentic you need to go to belair in houston read more

The food here has been ok, nothing great, but the crab puffs I got were so leather hard and barely chewable. Crab puffs are supposed to be light and crispy. These were actually like trying to chew leather. I won't be going back. read more

Spicy nothing, it's bland Chen! No flavor at all!!! Wings to go were included to the order, also were the worst!! Spring rolls were empty, no filling inside them. Don't waste your money eating at this place!! I don't think they know the definition of spicy! read more

Oh m gee! We love love love spicy chen! We came for dinner one night on a whim because we couldn't decide on a place. It was our first time here and the waitress was more than pleased to give us suggestions. We ordered a cup of wonton, a cup of egg drop, and some pork fried wontons for apps. For the main course I ordered a triple delight clay pot and my husband ordered a sizzling platter. The food was drop dead delicious. We will 100% return. read more

Used to be good food. They are now decent. Their portions are no longer "generous" as described by others. Waiters are nice.

The service here is immaculate, let's not mention the food as well! I have always gotten orange chicken and fried rice but decided to step out of my comfort zone and get the mango chicken & fried rice & I absolutely loved it!! Also, their plates are such a good portion! read more

The House Special fried rice is delicious the pork adds the perfect balance. Right ratio of meat and veggies to rice is perfect!

Delicious food, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Great lunch specials as well, highly recommend and will be back here.

Excellent food! Very clean, nice people. They even deliver! I like to order several things for delivery and have generous portions for 3 days of meals! read more

I'm not one to give bad reviews but this place is not good. They serve some pretty nasty food. My sesame chicken tasted like it was drowned in soy sauce, thank goodness for the side of rice that allowed me to make my 3 bites a little better. The server was constantly in the corner showing her coworker pictures on her phone and never had the courtesy to check on us. We never even got drink refills, I mean come on if you're going to serve me a bowl of salt at least keep me loaded on my drinks. Would never recommend this place to anyone. Cute interior though! read more
