Man what a mistake - after a negative experience last time it's been a few years, maybe things got better since the restaurant claims their chefs are from China and their cooking methods are solid? Nope. We ordered take-out from a couple restaurants Sunday, and the only food leftover? 888 Cookhouse. Even the sesame chicken no one wanted a second portion, my daughter suggested I throw it away instead of keeping it as leftovers. The bad food here has just gotten worse. Avoid, there are a lot of bad chinese spots in Frisco but Kitchen Master on Preston or 88 Bao on ElDorado are good options. Don't waste your calories on substandard Chinese food. read more

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! read more

Good food and service. We love this place. I like the hours. I've had the kung pao chicken, combo fried rice and orange chicken. All very delicious. Restaurant is large and we could sit anywhere. I like the big tvs too. read more

We did a door dash delivery from here while visiting friends and other food was good! Super fresh, veggies were not over cooked and the sauces were not soooo thick and gooey! The only thing we got wrong is we accidentally over ordered (our fault on the web site) so we got 2 of a dish we only wanted one of. But hey it was sooo good we had it cold the next day! Portions were fair and the shrimp was cooked well not all gummy! Great job we will go back for sure! Sorry no pics we were starving and all dug in! read more

The menu has changed and not for the better. A drastic increase in prices with the final insult being an 8oz can of coke costing $2.79 and now they charge for water prompted us to leave an go across the street to Golden Pot which was well worth it and imagine my smile when I ordered a coke and received a 16oz bottle for $1.99. read more

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. read more

I love a good egg roll that has a niche crispy flaky wrapper, and theirs was just what I was looking for! I usually like to order an eggroll as a little snack and theirs were reasonably priced at 2 for $3.00 and they also have duck sauce! The service was good as well. I cant wait to go back to try more of the thing they have! read more

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. read more

The boneless chili chicken is fantastic, super flavorful but seriously spicy, thanks to all the red chili and Szechuan peppers. The classic American Chinese dishes are solid and a hit with the whole family. Delivery is fairly quick and the food arrives hot, so it's definitely worth a try. read more

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. read more

I recommend coming here and the staff is really nice. read more

We ordered takeout, ordered two of the chefs specials - salt and pepper chicken and crispy beef. I am truly blown away that I paid $41 for this meal. The chicken was tiny balls of fried, cold, unrecognizable meat. The beef was slightly less gross. I will not return. read more

I usually test out the chicken fried rice first to make sure they've got the basics down. 888 was great. The veggies were fresh and the chicken was cooked well. I like the smaller cuts of chicken because it's similar to the rice and small veggies. I also got the chicken egg rolls and pork dumplings. Loved them. The dumpling sauce was not my favorite though--too vinegar-y, not savory enough for my taste. Large portions. The restaurant was packed and there were a ton of to go orders. Clearly others think it's a good place too! read more

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. read more

This is one of my favorite places! The food is absolutely wonderful! If you go, you have to try the Orange Chicken and Pork Soup Buns. The service is great and the food is always served hot.

Order through Ubereat on their BOGO special on dumpling and got a total 20 instead of 24. Also missed the part about adding chilies oil

My husband and I come here with some frequency and tonight's meal was better than usual. I think they give more attention to detail when the restaurant is not full. On a slow night food quality can go either way for any restaurant but I think for Cookhouse it skews for the better! I highly recommend coming on weekday nights. Don't be put off if you're a foodie and see the place is empty, the food you get may be better this way as I found out tonight! Also a tip about quality: if you get any fried dish like orange chicken or general Tsao anything, please eat it in the restaurant. The quality is spectacular right out of the fryer but somehow turns into regular average Chinese take out after you bring it home in a container. For their prices, it's worth it if you get the good experience of dining in but you'll be disappointed you paid so much for what seems like regular food if you take it home. Other dishes that aren't deep fried are great take out options like the eggplant or string beans. read more

Total find for authentic Chinese food in Frisco! My daughter happen to be taking art classes on the other side of the strip. So glad we stopped in to grab some food. The space is a lot bigger than it appears from the outside. There were 3 screens on the far wall, something to entertain everyone! We however were too busy digging into the food. Of course we needed to order soup dumplings (a must!). What's different here is that the bamboo steamer comes with 10 smaller soup dumplings! They are filled with soup so you need to be ready for piping hot soup! We also got sautéed string beans and what we loved was the seasoning. I can't describe it but it's amazing. Very well cooked. We also ordered the beef and broccoli (our litmus test). The meat is thinnly sliced and super tender. The sauce was so good, we ended up putting it on the rice. It's that flavorful. We also got cucumber salad for appetizer (it was over 100 deg outside so we were wanting something refreshing). It's garlicky and has a wonderful crunch! For sure this place will be on our radar when we're in the area. read more

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

We decided to try this place looking at the reviews.We ordered the chicken fried rice and vegetable fried rice extra spicy , since the person taking our order said the fried rice is not spicy at all. We also ordered mapo tofu as is. The mapo tofu is extremely oily and salty, cant enjoy it at all, we decided not to eat it.The chicken fried rice was bland, and the vegetable fried rice burn your mouth spicy for a person who eats their food really spicy We will not be returning at all. read more

Thus far best orange chicken I've had in Frisco. I just recently moved here from Dallas. And the restaurant options are VERY limited. I had been craving orange chicken for a while and decided to give this place a try. Ordered online through here, Yelp, and they had my order ready within 15 minutes! The portions they give you are big! I had enough for lunch the next day. read more

We ordered from here since Kitchen Master was already closed at 7:45, the great reviews sort of reassured us that the food was going to be tasty and of good quality. We ordered to go: Beef Lo Mein, and Orange Chicken. The Beef Lo Mein was extremely greasy, with barely any of The described veggies and the "beef" was pinkish with a weird texture, like if it was cubed to the extreme. The sauce taste was off, usually the dish is done with a soy sauce base, and maybe this one was but it didn't had the signature salty flavor and the meat was just terribly seasoned with a sweet hint. Ugh, Chinese food is really hard to mess up, but this was just terrible and the amount of oil left on the container after serving was gross. The orange chicken had way too much breading, the sauce was super thick, and it had a reddish tint like it had some food coloring added. The fried rice was meh, but probably was the best thing out of these three items, I don't get how they have such great reviews; this was by far the worst meal we had in a very long time. It wasn't cheap either, because if it had I *might* have given an extra star. read more

Visited 888 Cookhouse for the first time this past Sunday and I'm so happy I did. We were greeted by very friendly staff and told to pick a table. After sitting down the nice gentleman came over and let me know that the table was under the air vent and may be chilly in case I wanted to move up a booth. I very much appreciated that! Looking over the menu there were a lot of good options. We were very happy with both selections we chose and will definitely be back again. So glad I found this place as it will be my new go to!!! read more

Impromptu Thanksgiving dinner! The cumin beef was juicy and tender with great flavor and tons of onion slices. The fish in chili garlic sauce is like a fish stew and is hard to stop eating over white rice. We pretty much had the place to ourselves and the service was friendly, personal, and around at just the proper intervals. And they had the Cowboys/Giants game on! This was the chill dinner we really wanted. read more

Ordered to go over the phone. When I got there to pick up, the lady at the counter was very friendly and spoke with me until my egg rolls were done. The restaurant looked clean as I waited. I ordered Shrimp Fried rice, shrimp lo mein, combination rice, beef pepper steak, and eggs rolls. Everything tasted fresh and the egg rolls were nice size. This is my go to Chinese food spot. read more

Updating my review to 4 out of 5 now. Recently just came here, and while the flavors are there, the cooking execution isn't as apparent as it was during the opening phase. The "wok hei" is missing which is what sets good chinese food apart from acceptable. "Wok hei" is the art of the heat of the work, the oils, and all of the sugars coming out of the sauce mixtures to come together and create this smoky/sweet essence. May be shopping around for another spot, but so far this one's still one of the better Chinese spots in the area. read more

We love this place. They not only have the best food (i.e., spicy popcorn chicken, braised pork belly, sautéed green beans) but they are also very friendly. Clean and spacious. And TV's with sports for people like us who did the cord-cutting. Been coming here for more than two years I think and I think they might have the best Chinese food (especially if you like spicy food) in DFW. Highly recommend it. read more
