    I went to 888 Cookhouse for lunch last week and I'm so glad I did. The food was so delicious and the lunch special was the perfect price. I went to get the wonton soup and it was very tasty. The broth was well seasoned and the dumplings were large and there were many in the soup and I got the small bowl. I got the Mongolian beef lunch special with the fried rice. The Mongolian beef was delicious. I added a little chili spice and it was perfect. This lunch was a 10 out of 10 and I will be back!

    Classic milk tea with boba
    Melody M.

    Amazing food, incredible service, and nice ambiance. You are able to watch the chefs work, and the place is spacious and comfortable. I came here with my boyfriend and it was a sweet date spot! We tried a lot of food and it was all INCREDIBLY GOOD. My favorite was the boba. I didn't expect it to be so good. The classic milk tea with boba is one of the best bobas I have had. It might even be the best, but Id have to try them all side by side to be accurate. I drink a lot of different bobas, so that would be my credentials! My favorite food was my combo lo mein, of course. It allowed me to try many meats, my favorite was the beef! My boyfriend's favorite was also the combo lo mein (We tasted each others food) but he also really liked everything.

    Beef roll Soup DS 8. Chicken Dumpling Special Noodle soup
    Stacy W.

    The beef roll was so talked about and hyped I had to get it and it was huge. Never tasted anything like it, it was delicious! Sweet and savory and crispy. The soup dumpling was good as any other place? Nothing special. The noodle soup was comforting and the noodles seemed fresh! Delicious food and a large menu selection

    Days old dried out chicken pieces

    I'll keep this simple. No Food: Very old tasting. Fried food cooked in old grease. Nothing I got was freshly made.

    I stopped in for lunch craving good Asian fare. We have a ton of great options around Frisco, and was encouraged by the 4 plus star reviews. The service was excellent--super friendly, quick, and prompt with table checks. The food, however, left a lot to be desired. Presentation was decent but lacked flavor. If it weren't for the exemplary staff, I would probably given 2 stars.

    Mongolian Chicken

    First and last time I'll go here. Their lunch "special" for $10.95 is a straight-up scam. We went on a Monday but even then we were the only ones in the restaurant. We ordered the Kung Pao and Mongolian chicken and what they serve you isn't even a lot of food. The Mongolian chicken tasted pretty good but the Kung Pao was just straight up celery and peanuts as in the photo. Fried rice tasted more like a brown rice and was lacking flavor and other ingredients that you would expect more of in a fried rice. And the egg roll that the special came with was cold in the center. Ambiance was okay and the service was okay, what you'd expect from any restaurant. I'm so surprised they've been open for 3+ years as there's so much other good Asian food in the area.

    C2. Orange Chicken
    Allie M.

    Went to this restaurant and dined in. My daughter had order to go but never ate inside. We had egg drop soup (forgot pic) came with crispy noodles. Veggie egg roll and crab rangoons, both were good, hot and fresh, side of sauce. We shared vegetable lo mein that we modified to have broccoli, carrots and cabbage and it was perfect. Last was orange chicken and requested white meat, it was hot, mildly spicy and fresh, so yummy! Staff was friendly and we will be back. It is very big inside great for small or large groups.

    Bland and tasteless food. By no means authentic. Service was good. Place is more like a food court than a restaurant.

First, many of the dishes lacked the authenticity. The hot and sour soup wasn't sour at all and was overwhelmed by the flavor of sesame oil. The black bean noodles tasted like instant noodles you could make at home, and we ended up adding black vinegar ourselves just to bring some acidity and balance to the dish. The sweet chili shrimp also didn't taste fresh. At the end of our meal, we literally said "this tasted like Chinese buffet food." The service and dining environment made the experience even worse. Throughout our meal, we constantly heard dishes being slammed around from servers cleaning tables. At one point, something was dropped so hard that dishes shattered across the floor. A trash cart was parked right next to our booth while we were eating, and the staff even started mopping the floor directly in front of us during the lunch rush. I understand that restaurants often hire seasonal staff during the summer, but proper training is still important. The way the dishes were handled throughout our meal was loud, chaotic, and disruptive, making it difficult to enjoy our dining experience. It's unfortunate because our first experience of this restaurant was great, but this visit fell well short of our expectations.

All the food had amazing flavors so I would recommend everything. My only note was the beef in the noodles was slightly chewy so I would suggest another protein option. The service was great.

We ordered: Cumin Lamb (side: fried rice); Singapore Noodle Combination (chicken/shrimp/beef); Eggplant w/ Garlic Sauce (side: steamed rice); Okra w/ Giant Oyster Mushroom (side: steamed rice); and Xao Long Bao (6 pcs). WOW! The braised okra with giant oyster mushroom positively SURPRISED and leap frogged to the top of my preferred vegetable GOTOs...The cumin lamb was SO tender and VERY flavorful. One of the best preparations yet. The Singapore noodle combo and Xao Long Bao did not disappoint... More importantly, the service we received was attentive, courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt. Sadly, the eggplant with garlic sauce is the ONLY reason a star is withheld for this review...it detracted from traditional Chinese style; notes of garlic eviscerated by the chef's sweetening to satisfy an American palette...Why fix something that's unbroken?...I get it. The restaurant has to cater to its customers who populate this mix use (business/lease residential) area at the NW corner of Alma and Hwy 121, but doesn't that limit its draw? Guess we'll just have to head either further south on Central (HWY 75) to the Legacy & Spring Creek areas or further west to the Preston and Warren Pkwy Frisco TX area to satisfy our authentic Chinese cuisine food cravings.
