    Nicer than the average Chinese restaurant. We arrived just before noon. We were the first group for lunch. They have a nice lunch menu with many options. I opted for one of the specials which came with soup or spring roll and either white or fried rice. I opted for the Kung pao three delight. which is shrimp, chicken and beef. The food was very good and the portions were ample. One of my pet peeves is when they don't bring all the entrées at the same time. I was almost finished with my entree when they brought the final entrée. The soup was not very hot but the entrees were fine. I rate the food a "b minus". Give it a try.

    It hurts me to write this review, but our last order was so bad for my husband. He ordered the jalapeño chicken, which was such bad quality that he threw it in the trash. We've had other chicken dishes from here and they were fine. I hope that it was a one off because it was New Year's Day and not a change in meat quality.

    What have I been missing?! I eat next door all the time. A friend recommended and I'm so glad we finally came in. We had steamed pot stickers, lo mein, orange chicken, beef broccoli and fried rice.

    I've ordered several meals from here in the past few weeks and everything we've ordered has been delicious. They did forget to include our fried rice once but I just called them and they made a note for me to get it on my next order. Ordering online is convenient and simple and the food comes nicely packed for pickup. We really enjoy the Lo Mein, Sesame Chicken and Sesame Shrimp.

    What a little gem! Restaurant appeared to be clean with ample seating. The staff was so attentive and friendly! We went for lunch and the portions were more than plenty for the price! All the food had so much flavor! My teenage kiddo even said, "this fried rice is bomb!" So you know it was good! The steamed dumplings were so soft and not overly doughy and pair wonderful with their chili oil! We will definitely be back soon!

    Shrimp Pepper & Salt

    This place was such a solid Chinese place. Really liked the salt and pepper shrimp. Highly recommend this. The egg drop soup was decent -- good flavor but nothing spectacular. I thought the beef was okay. Service was nice and ambiance is what you'd expect from a normal Chinese restaurant. Overall would come back again but specifically for the salt and pepper shrimp.

    Shrimp Pepper & Salt, great flavor!

    Went on a week night with my husband and was very pleased with our experience. We got salt and pepper shrimp, general's beef and egg drop soup. Everything was fresh and had great flavor. Food from 1 to crazy bussin: 7.5/10. The portions were large and the prices were quite reasonable. The service was attentive, respectful and friendly. The ambiance is lowkey, just a casual Chinese restaurant. Overall we really enjoyed the food especially for the price, will be coming back for sure!

    Three Gorges is a small, no-frills restaurant with bold, authentic Chinese flavors with a Sichuan…read morecuisine twist. The menu has nicely seasoned dishes that balance heat, flavor, and aroma. I ordered hot and sour pork soup. I had never had hot and sour soup with meat. Portions were generous, ingredients fresh, and the food arrived smoking hot. The noodles were soft, smooth and flavorful. The pork inside looked like tiny meatballs. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the restaurant was completely full and customers were continuing to flow in. Because the restaurant is rather small, I had to wait about 20 minutes for my order. Jim, one of the owners, said if I had ordered 3 items it would take about 45 minutes, that's why I went with one. You could easily tell that many folks at the restaurant were regulars, which means the food, service or both were exceptional. Definitely will be returning to Three Gorges...

Family…read morestyle, big portions at a good price point. - Cumin Lamb: A heaping pile of thinly sliced lamb that is tender mixed in with cumin seeds, sichuan peppercorns, fresh cilantro, and red chilis. The cumin seeds give it that signature earthy, aromatic flavor and you get a slight tingly numbing spice sensation from the chilis and peppercorn. The lamb is not overly gamey, but it still does taste like lamb so if you are not really a lamb fan, I'd choose something else. - Jumping Fish: A very popular dish! Tender white fish fillets that is so soft it melts in your mouth. It is in a flavorful oil and broth that is refreshing from the fresh jalapenos. It is a savory dish, yet still relatively mild. It commes with napa cabbage as well! This was my favorite dish and I loved the flavor combined with the white rice. - Mapo Tofu (Vegetarian): They have one with pork as well, but I got the vegetarian version. Silky soft tofu cubes in that signature mapo tofu sauce and numbing peppercorns. Despite the appearance of all the dishes, none of them were very spicy. Overall, a comforting soft, spicy, savory dish with a slight tingle. - Eggplant in garlic sauce: A deliciously sweet and umami garlic sauce. The eggplants could have been a bit more cooked through in my opinion though since it was still quite firm. I loved it still! Note that all the dishes to me were not spicy just had an underlying subtle spice or tingle (like a finishing flavor note if you will). Also, since it is sichuan the dishes are on the oilier side. You order with the cashier at the front and pay up front as well. Food comes out quickly. It is a small space with three rows of tables (maybe around 12-15 tables give or take), so it does fill up fast. I went at around 5:40 PM on a Thursday and there was no wait, but by the time we finished eating at around 7PM, the restaurant was full. House of Three Gorges was hyped up a lot on my social media feed and through word of mouth, so I came in with high expectations. Luckily, they did not disappoint.

    Got it, keeping it more direct and matter of fact:…read more --- Ho Ho isn't the banquet style Cantonese restaurant many of us used to go to anymore, but they still do keep the food the same. Their wonton egg noodle soup is one of my go to dishes in Austin. The broth has more depth and umami compared to Dinh Ho, and the wontons are a bit more fatty and bouncy. It's a satisfying bowl. Their Chinese BBQ is also reliable. The space could use some upkeep. It feels like not much has been updated since the next generation took over, and the wear is more noticeable after COVID. I understand wanting to keep things the same, but some investment into the building, furniture, and overall ambiance would make a difference in how popular this place can be given it's long standing reputation for excellent authentic Chinese food. . I still come here when I want a solid wonton noodle soup and BBQ.

The establishment outside is run down but we were surprise to see the inside booths/tables were nicer than the outside. There are live tanks of seafood when you walk in. You need to wait to be seated. Service was good and food came pretty fast. We ordered the general tso chicken lunch special which comes with hot and sour soup. Lunch special is from 11am-3pm Monday-Friday. The general tso chicken is salty and was not well balance. The chicken was dry. It was lightly battered and fried. The sauce was one note. The stir fried flat noodles N12 combination was under seasoned and needed more soy sauce. The squid was not seasoned at all. The shrimp was imported shrimp and was not good. There were still poop lines in the shrimp. You didn't get any smokiness from the soy sauce at all. Do I recommend this place? This place was a staple in atx but with my Overall experience with the food quality I cannot recommend this place. We have had the roasted pork before and it was ok. Not the best we ever had but meh. Where we were seated we can hear the cooks yelling at each other in the kitchen. There are other restaurants in Austin that are way better.
