    UPDATE: The star of…read morethe menu is the boiled fish! Always numbing and tender pieces of fish. The spicy cubes chicken was crisp and tasty. The green beans were as expected. We ordered two of the sweet & sour ribs. Always goes so well with rice. The shrimp were exceptional - big, pump, tender and full of flavor! The only issue was the amount of oil used, even after we asked for less oil. I guess they need lots of oil to make Sichuan dishes. Our son came home after a big Cantonese dinner in Chinatown and tried the shrimp, then the other dishes. He couldn't stop from having a little second meal! Said the dishes were really good. We must have picked a good combination of dishes as I loved this meal!

    OVERVIEW: this is a homey small restaurant. It is simple, cozy but spacious enough to feel relaxed…read more FOOD QUALITY: Not very convincing. Very heavy handed with salt even though the person in my party that placed the order specifically told the waitress to tone down on the salt. We also asked for no MSG but they turned to sugar instead so the dishes were a little altered beyond recognition. Specifically, I ordered their Szechuan peppercorn beef. As far as I know, this dish is always all savory and there should not be any sweetness. But, when I took the first bite, it was mildly sweet. Weird! Looks like for the rest of the dishes that has sauce, they used the same dark colored sauce; so, they tasted the same. Not a lot of imagination and creativity in their cooking. SERVICE: They are quite attentive in this area. So, I would give them 4 out of 5 stars in this area. VERDICT: Would I return? Probably not. When it comes to Chinese foods, the dishes need to be superior in their taste. You really need to have skills to survive as a Chinese restaurant.

I get it - it's right after the holidays so staffing could be short. The server we had wasn't exactly enthusiastic, just did the bare minimum. Dishes piled up and we weren't asked about refills. You'd figure because there was only 1 group that the service would be attentive, but nope! The food that we ordered from the kitchen were all super fresh and delicious. My favorites were the bulgogi gimbap, eggroll (tiny rolled egg omelette), and chicken wings! They come out super hot - loved them all. The hot buffet bar was not filled at all, some were even just empty. I found it disappointing that we didn't get to try a lot of their items. The hot buffet bar was really scarce, I mean, just fried dumplings and fries but they were refilled really slow and some never had refills. The boba bar was empty and never filled. The DIY ramen station was closed off. I tipped only because I felt like I had to, but the service was abysmal. I would come back but maybe for lunch instead of dinner. Hopefully service improves.

It was $36.99 for the korean bbq + hotpot on Friday. There are plenty of tables, and I noticed there's another room with even more seats! The servers were super attentive and continued checking up on us. The meat selection has expanded, and while the quality would be better at a speciality kbbq or hotpot ayce place, this is great for those who want both. The hotpot broths are a good starting base, and you can definitely season it to make it even better! I like that the hotpot meat are trays you grab yourself. There are plenty of ingredients, and they all look super fresh. For the kbbq, there are some meats to grab yourself and some you have to order. We ordered one of each meat option, but the galbi was what stood out! It was super tender and marinated perfectly. Everything else on the ordering menu comes with no marinade, but you can make your own sauce to dip it in. I also enjoyed the green onion pancake, sesame balls, and fruits at the end!

Bigger selection of paying the dinner price. + Staff come by frequently enough to replace the lining on the grill + Szechuan spicy broth is good, lots of peppercorns. + Excellent lunch value - They line the grill with a paper with a application of oil/butter. It causes the meat not to stick to the grill, but the major downside is meat takes much longer to get that char, and it's a bit oily. I would prefer if it was just the grill, but obviously it would mean more cleaning for the restaurant It's not gonna beat the restaurants that specialize in one or the other, e.g. Shabu En or Handam. However, it's a great option if you want hotpot and/or kbbq, but you don't want to make it all the way to Chinatown.

    Sugarland is not exactly a destination for Cantonese cuisine, which is all the more reason I…read moreappreciated what Regal had to offer. Whether it was weekend dim sum or an evening Canto feast with fresh seafood, I was simply thankful for the option. Now that option is toast since Regal closed last month. Looks can be deceiving. The exterior makes me think of a fitness joint more so than a Cantonese spot. Stepping inside is a complete contrast, with a mix of specialty murals, modern decor with a contemporary edge. There were plenty of large group tables, which made this place perfectly ideal for a feast gathering. Bathrooms were also clean, but this is the only place I've seen that had ice cubes all the urinals. (#1) Dim Sum was solid. The highlights for me were their stir fried XO rice rolls, which had a nice char and some good flavor. The Malay style rolls were also suprrisingly good and I felt strongly about their bbq pork puffs, durian rolls, and glutinous pork dumplings shaped to look like pears. The shrimp dumplings, beef balls, and spare ribs were average at best, I was also very impressed with their overall variety and the fact they had an extremely defined picture menu. The Canto speaking staff was friendly and the parking was plentiful. While the food wasn't all a hit, I do think there was some potential, which was not realized in the end. I am sincerely hoping another Canto spot will emerge in the Land of Sugar. __________ (#1) Yes, really.

Price - for dim sum, we've paid roughly $26/person, but that included tax and tips. So that amount is arbitrary. It depends on how many dishes you may order, and keep in mind that we had a lot of left over food though. We also had a whole duck in this price, so not your typical dim sum order. I imagine it would be less if we would just stick to dim sum only. 3. Ambiance - this place is industrial looking. Modern and pretty hip. It's not massive. Not sure if it's the same owner as the previous Regal on 59. But it's a smaller footprint than the previous location. Dress code here is casual. 4. Food - I will say that the dim sum here is legit Hong Kong style dim sum. This is delicious and not greasy. I really like their CHA-SIU-BAO (BBQ Pork Buns), HA-GAO (shrimp dumplings), SIU-MEI (Pork and Shrimp dumplings), and Egg Tarts. Because it was our first time there, we wanted to try out their roast duck. It is also very authentically made. There are definitely other dishes that were good too, but these were the few worth mentioning. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area appears clean. SUMMARY - I recommend this place and will likely return for more dim sum in the future.

I've tried the Galleria location as well, but this review is strictly for Sugar Land--and it definitely has its own vibe. What keeps me coming back are two key things that make this my overall favorite Chinese restaurant and earn them five stars every time: their General Tso's Chicken is made with white meat, and they serve chicken egg rolls. That combination is harder to find than you'd think, and they execute both perfectly. The food is consistently excellent. The chicken fried rice deserves special mention--when you order it, be prepared for a massive portion. It comes piled high on the plate in a huge, rounded mound, and it's very good. You absolutely get your money's worth here. As for the ambiance, it's much more no-frills than the Galleria location. The dining area is small, with seating lined up and an almost direct view into the kitchen. The staff usually consists of a cook and a female cashier who also acts as the server. She's efficient, focused, and pretty much all business--no small talk, but the service gets the job done. If you're looking for fancy, this isn't it. But if you want great portions, solid flavors, and a reliable neighborhood Chinese spot, Chang's in Sugar Land delivers every time.

They…read morehave a large buffet of hot pot items including seafood (shrimp, mussels, oysters, variety of fish, squid, crab), tofu and bean curd, so many fresh vegetables, udon, ramen, wontons, dumplings, meatballs, fish balls, quail and regular eggs, the list goes on and on! They have some cooked items on the buffet including fried rice, egg rolls, crawfish (seasonal), fried chicken, French fries, and more. The sauce bar was also extensive and included too! I liked that they had fried garlic and fried onion. They also include fresh fruit, a variety of Vietnamese che, and ice cream (green tea, red bean, cookies and cream, vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate) in the buffet. There's six soup bases to choose from, and you can choose whether you want the table to share one large pot with up to two flavors or if you want to do individual hot pot at no extra cost. I loved that they had both options. My favorite broth was probably the tom yum - super savory with great flavor. The staff is very friendly and check on you often without being intrusive, and they bring the meats you order quickly. They also refill your drinks proactively which I appreciate. The restaurant is large and could easily accommodate big parties. The restaurant area, buffet area, and the bathrooms were all really clean. The music wasn't super loud, making it easy to talk. It's located on the end of a big shopping plaza, so parking was easy. There's also specials during the week and for birthdays (see menu photo). I'd highly recommend!

Since my previous experience was over 8 years ago, I decided to give it an update. I walked in and searched for somebody to hopefully give me instruction on how to order or start but couldn't see anyone. Then, I looked over the high counter to find an employee buried his face on his phone. I guess he was so involved with his stock market trading, he didn't notice my presence. He guided me to the first table by the door. He must know that I was very hungry. I had to squeeze between the table and the booth. Not sure why it's so tight. I am not a big guy either. I ordered chicken and lamb to start my meat crave and Chinese herbal soup. He brought me a tray of some kind of beef and a tray of lamb. I didn't challenge him because I was hungry. Then, I ordered chicken from a lady. It took a little while and I almost told her forget it. The meat was very lean and kind of thick. Not easily seasoned with the sauces there. I actually ate more fish than any other protein. The catfish fillets were pretty fresh. Except, I don't like to watch flies crawling on my mussels. Not sure why health department has not come here yet. There are fly traps hanging above the seafood and dessert aisle. I also spotted some mosquitos or gnats flying around the sauces. I am sorry but I definitely not coming back. This got me so disgusted. I had to leave.

I was taking a loved one to the hospital and was starrrrving. I didn't want to eat at the hospital cafeteria, so I got in my car and ventured to see what was around the area. Immediately, I looked over and saw Mama Le. When I entered, I was met with a warm smile and a staff member, Amara, who was able to help me pick the best thing on the menu (based on what I can eat). She was incredibly helpful. I also wanted a drink because the pictures on the outside of the building alll looked so delicious. I ended up ordering the lemongrass beef with rice and also the slushie with passion fruit. My goodness. My my my my my. Complete tens across the board. The beautifully seasoned and tender beef, the delicious onions and peppers and the incredible aromatic waft that hits your nose upon every bite. It was a truly remarkable dish. "Spicy lemongrass onion beef"!!!!!!! And I'm a sucker for passion fruit anything and this absolutely did not miss the mark. So good so good. Sweet, satisfying, and fresh. The most delicious blend of the fruit with the mint. "Passion attractions"!!!!! Yep... Yelp. You got it right. Mama Le is THAT girl.

    This place is a must try…read more When the waitress brought the food to the table, the aroma was incredible! Each of the rice dishes the family ordered, smelled so good. Honestly, I never thought to try fried chicken from a Vietnamese place, especially with fish sauce on it. The waitress said it is pretty popular, so I gave it a try. The fried chicken didn't have your typical floured batter, instead it was a marinated chicken leg and thigh, that was fried to be extra crispy, with a layer of fish sauce glaze that was probably the aroma I smelt. It was something I have never tasted before, and it was so delicious. It was a little salty, but that is what the rice, cucumbers and tomatoes are for, to help cut the saltiness. My younger kids order the chicken pho and salmon. The chicken pho was good. I snuck a little sip of the soup and it was a nice clean chicken pho soup. As for the salmon, I took a small bite and that was delicious. Okay, my kid ordered it well done (a crime), but it came out crispy on all sides. I don't know what was the seasoning on it, but it had a lot of flavor. There were a decent amount of vegetarian choices. My wife ordered the shaken tofu. She liked it, but it would be better if there were other veggies instead of peppers and onions. The second time we went, she got the tofu with vegetables, which wasn't as good as the shaken tofu. The ginger garlic sauce was good, but it was mainly tofu and cabbage. It is a small place, next to Memorial Herman Sugar Land. With all the construction going on, it could be easily missed.
