Delicious! Started with the wonton soup which had two thick dumplings and chunks of pork- perfection. Both the steamed dumplings and pan fried dumplings were plump and the fillings were very flavorful. You must try them topped with their minced ginger in oil. Ordered the Basil delight and Firecracker Shrimp. The firecracker shrimp was full of jalapenos, but could use a touch more heat. Overall 10/10! read more

I really wanted to love this place. The menu sounded amazing, and the staff was incredibly kind and accommodating, which made the experience start off on a high note. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to expectations. I ordered the black pepper beef and shrimp, along with the spicy orange sauce with chicken and shrimp, and both dishes felt a bit lacking in flavor. They weren't bad, just more bland than I was hoping for given how good everything sounded on the menu. One thing I did appreciate was the portion sizes--they were very generous for the price, and overall it felt like a great value. Even though the food didn't fully hit the mark for me, the excellent service stood out. I'd be open to giving it another try, as it's possible I just didn't order the right dishes. read more

I originally paid 10 dollars for a full order of lo mein and it was given to me in a side order to go box.(then why charge as a full size entree?) And further more the general tso chicken is actually just sweet and sour chicken tossed in bottled General sauce. Was given cold to me and then afterwards had explosive stomach. Parking was easy and it was only a short wait to get the food. read more

Auntie Chang's Dumpling House - Sweet and sour chicken disguised as General Tso's Chicken - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

A Montrose restaurant where we like to HANG Loved every bite of the food the waiter BRANG Craving them constantly like KD LANG* When I want Curry Shrimp I go see AUNTIE CHANG! WHAT *how old even am I Haven't tried their world famous dumplings, but what I can say is that a lot of Houston Chinese American food is trash. You have to go to Chinatown and get the real stuff at Hunan Bistro or Spicy Hunan and the like, or you're out of luck. But there are exceptions. The Curry Shrimp here (extra spicy) is basic but easily the tastiest I've had in Texas. The other dishes I've had here are good too. Significantly better than some of the other popular Chinese American restaurants within 15 minutes of here. If you've been frequenting another nearby place, it's time to Chang it up and give this place a try. read more

Auntie Chang's Dumpling House - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I'm shocked at myself that I've never reviewed a staple Chinese restaurant like Auntie Chang's! I've been coming to this restaurant since my college days, which was nearly a decade ago, and this place has kept me fed to fill my hangry days with happiness. Now, a few things. Just like most other restaurants, they have their "days," where they're off their game or food isn't quite consistently good every single time, but they've had mostly the same staff for years and always provide friendly service! They've survived storms, a pandemic, and probably multiple economic downturns, and they're still serving up some of the best dumplings and sesame chicken here in Houston! The lease can't be cheap because of the location, but their expansive menu offers some great lunch deals and great shumai! Over the years, I've tried quite a few menu items, but I typically only order one thing from here - and that's their sesame chicken! I have yet to find any other Chinese restaurant that batters, fry's and sauces their chicken the way they do here! I highly recommend it! It's family-friendly, offers shareable food items, and you can't complain about the view on the 2nd floor! Honestly, if this place was given some TLC and a facelift, it could easily give you old world Crazy Rich Asian vibes! It's the green carpet for me! read more

My favorite dumplings in Houston! The vegetable steamed dumplings are savory, chock full of spinach and out of this world. I like to take some home for leftovers. This place is on our regular rotation for takeout, but nothing beats the dine in freshness so when we are really craving it, we go in! The service is exceptionally friendly and prompt and I love the retro vibe and warm Christmas lights. They use white meat for the sesame chicken, which my family loves. Other favorites include anything on the specials list, the basil chicken, and spicy eggplant. Also you will not find better value for the quality of the food, it is excellent! This place cares about what they serve. read more

Auntie Chang's Dumpling House - Dumplings and sesame chicken - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been coming to this location for about 27 years since we were teenagers. One of the best Chinese spots in Houston. You cannot beat their lunch specials! Amazing prices, great customer service, an amazing food! Food: my go to here for years has been the general Sol's chicken. It's absolutely amazing. Fried to perfect perfection with an amazing general size chicken sauce. The eggroll and fried rice to come during the lunch special are simply amazing. Also, probably one of the best hot and sour soups in town. I'm a huge fan of this place. Everything is made fresh and I can't wait to keep coming back to try more things off their menu. The customer service is great. They will get you in and out and make sure you have everything you need! The prices are amazing. This has been my go to for years. I can't believe I never reviewed this place but we've had several meals every single year for the past. I don't know 25 or 27 years. Easy five star review read more

My hubby is at the hospital and dinner was not good so I placed an order off Uber Eats and left 4 star review there but could not give actual feedback back other than thumbs up or down and every single thing was wonderful, and delish however the beef in garlic sauce was a bit spicier than anticipated. I would love to see an option of how spicy I would like it because the only option is spicy or not spicy. I want to say again for the people in the back EVERYTHING WAS AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!!!!!! Just a variation of spicy options would make it sooo much better. I mean honestly I would have given 5 star if the spice has a mild, medium or hot option. Thanks for understanding read more

Lovely dumpling spot on the second floor of the shopping center. Servings are generous and everything is delicious. Shrimp dumplings, pork pan fried dumplings, and bbq ribs was a perfect dinner for two hungry people. The service was on point- water was always refilled and the manager checked in with us periodically read more

Food was nothing special. Menu has poor description of what each dish includes. The waiter was of NO help on describing or informing us on the dishes ingredients. I would not go out of my way to go there again. read more

Came in for lunch. Got a General Tso's lunch special and also got the assorted dumplings. Got started off with crispy wonton strips and hour sour soup. General Tso's: pretty saucy, very large portion. Extremely worth it for the price of 9.95. Dumplings: kind of eh. Got the assorted steamed and the skin was pretty fragile. Definitely have had much better dumplings. They do give you 4 different dipping sauces! read more

Listen here...I've had lots of Chinese food in my day but they are doing things right at Auntie Changs! The food is absolutely delicious, the portions are huge and the price...chefs kiss! The staff are always incredibly welcoming and kind. I've so many great menu items that I honestly recommend you just try something new each time. It's located in a shopping center that's shared by Target but there is ample parking and while located on the second floor there is an elevator to accommodate everyone. It's never too crowded inside and just an overall quiet restaurant dishing out amazing food! read more

Cute little spot, loved the decor and homey feel and the fish add to the aesthetic. Loved. Loved. Loved the soup dumplings, they are delicious and so comforting- like biting into a warm hug. Wish they were bigger. All of the food was great and seasoned well and really tastes homemade-- it was cooked with love and I believe she earned her title as Auntie. The noodles were bomb as well, authentic and thick, not like those skinny greasy ones from the mall or buffet. The service was perfect, I believe even the owner checked on us a couple times (not 100% sure he was the owner but he gave off jefe vibes.) Can't wait to come back and try more dishes! read more

I'm a lover of Chinese food and can be very picky, and this is probably the best dumpling I've had in Houston. The meat to wrapping ratio is AMAZING. the people are so sweet and the place is a classic Chinese restaurant that you will want to keep going to. Very popular for takeout ! read more

I've come to Auntie Chang's Dumpling House a few times over the years, always by invitation. It is located on the second floor of a busy shopping complex off Shepard. Customer service on my visits have been ok. Just employees going through the motions really. The inside is nice and quiet as I have never seen a crowd here. I was super excited to come here the first time I was invited because I love me some dumplings. For being a dumpling restaurant, the variety here is pretty small. They have your typical dumpling filling options like beef, chicken, shrimp, pork and veggie. You can have those options either steamed or pan fried. I have tried all the meat options other than the shrimp. The filling is decent but a tad bit on the salty side. The dumpling dough consistency can be hit or miss. Sometimes they fall apart, other times it is thick and gummy. Some are spot on and delicious. They do have quite a variety of other Chinese dishes. I've had the General Tso's Chicken, Broccoli Beef, and fried rice. You know, the most generic Chinese food items. All have been tasty and satisfying, but nothing to write home about. All in all, it's a cute place with decent food. I just know there are way more dumpling options around town that I would rather go to when the cravings hit. I would come back here if invited here again. read more

Solid Chinese food - delicious and consistent! They have been around since before Target opened below, trust that kinda longevity especially in Houston. We always order the Moo Goo Gai Pan, and a variety of dumplings and appetizers. read more

I would say Auntie Chang's is alright, pretty standard! We really enjoyed their fried spring rolls and the orange chicken, and the fried rice portion is huge. I was however surprised by the small dumpling selection considering dumpling house is in their name. Waiter was attentive and very good about refills and checking on us, but our food took forever to come out when it wasn't even busy. Overall a fine meal, but I'm not itching to go back! read more

My friends and I went to a restaurant nearby and they were closed so we decided to try Auntie Chang's. The place wasn't busy so the waiter greeted us, answered questions and took our orders fairly quickly. What we ordered: Soup Dumplings - 5/10 Veggie Eggrolls - 5/10 Singapore Noodles - 4/10; not very flavorful Wonton Soup - 2/10 (too salty) Beef & Broccoli - 6/10 Eggplant Dish - 6/10 Chicken Fried Rice - 1/10 (tasted scorched) No need to ever return. :-/ If you want fresh flavorful food, my suggestion would be to try elsewhere. read more

The food is quite acceptable. Tasty, in fact. The service was okay except for the fact that the waiter did not seem to understand that the loud alarm going off in the dining room was a problem. read more

This is the best dumpling house and authentic Chinese restaurant with very delicious and healthy food available. They have variety of dumplings to choose from, very special General Tso's chicken, salt and pepper fish/shrimp, and tasty lo mein. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, serving food fast and can meet your request for special needs. read more

Terrible food(too sweet they use to much sugar cooking their food). Prices are reasonable for lunch, but dinner is ridiculous for what you get(was paying $8.50 for a cheap glass of Merlot wine). The worst part is this crazy waiter that they have(believe he is Chinese; but definitely Asian & rude AF). He had the audacity to tell me to wait he would take my food order after he brought out my drinks(was waiting for 15 minutes or longer). If you go to this you will see what I'm saying. Go to Bellaire Blvd; & go to an authentic Chinese restaurant at a discounted price where the servers are grateful for your busines. Never will I go back to this weirdo plac. read more

I hadn't eaten here in 15 years because I lived elsewhere, but I am pleased to say everything is just as good as it was then. To me, this place was always more than just a restaurant to me -- it was a place I went to when I ran into troubles at home -- when life's frustrations were too much for me to bear as a teenager. This place is amazing and likely has the best General Tso's sauce in all of the Greater Houston area 太感谢你们啦。我今天吃的饭跟我十五年前吃的连一点变化都没有。辛苦你们这么长时间给我们休斯顿人吃好吃的。我希望你们生意变得越来越好。 read more

Im between 3 and 4 stars. I saw this place on a quick run to target and figured why not stop by. I'm new to the area and I love me some dumplings so it was perfect. It was pretty busy for an early weekday lunch since there was only one server. I was a bit disappointed in the menu. For a place called dumpling house they only have like 6-8 dumplings in the menu. It's really a Chinese food place in my most humble opinion. I've been to dumpling houses in New York with pages of options so I was underwhelmed. I will say that the Linux special is a great deal though. Comes with choice of soup, entree (which can be dumplings), egg roll and fried rice for $11 or less. Taste was acceptable but not outstanding. If you're in the market for a good deal this place could work for you. read more

Auntie Changs is just a great place. It's unapologetically old school Chinese and I'm glad for it. You walk in, it's taking a step back in time with its decor, making a right hand turn down nostalgia lane. Funny thing though, even with its namesake, we hardly get the dumplings. What I never pass up here is the moo shoo pork. It's hands down my favorite in all of H-town, always superb with the wok-hei (wok's breath) you want. Other great dishes are the general tso's chicken (I have a soft spot for the General), the chicken with eggplant and black beans, any of their lo mein dishes, and their young chow fried rice. We just love this place! read more

I was working in the area and saw they have lunch specials. They are reasonably priced. The place is on a second floor but there's an elevator if you have mobility issues. The dining room is bright and looks toward the parking lot. I ordered shrimp with garlic sauce. It comes with a vegetable egg roll, rice and soup. I took a star off because my eggdrop soup was lukewarm. Otherwise, my dish was a generous serving and flavorful with lots of veggies. Though it has the spicy sign on the menu, you can order it non spicy. I look forward to trying veggie dumplings. read more

That Chinese food was absolutely amazing--every bite was full of flavor and perfection.

This may have been the most lackluster Chinese food I have ever eaten. I found it on UberEats and of course came straight to Yelp for reviews. All I can say is maybe they were having an off day because I am not a fan. I can't comment on the service and ambiance, as I did not dine it. I ordered and had my food delivered. Spring roll - This was the only thing I ordered that was actually pretty good. It was crispy on the outside like it should be and soft yet crunchy and yummy on the inside. Singapore Fried Rice Noodles - This is normally one of my favorite dishes. Not at this place though. My noodles lacked that delicious, signature curry flavor and were just bland. I did everything I could to doctor it up and make it edible. But, ultimately just threw the dish in the trash. Pan Fried Shrimp Dumplings - Very mushy and did not look like any shrimp dumplings I have ever had. Most mince the shrimp and pack it in. These were small, whole shrimp stuffed inside a wonton and nothing else. I appreciated the whole shrimp, although different. But, these were so mushy that they weren't edible. It could have been due to delivery. So, I'll give them that. But, regardless the flavor was still lacking. Beef with Broccoli - Another lackluster dish. This was not mine, but I tasted it so I could review it. We love beef and broccoli around here and were extremely disappointed with the subpar flavor in this dish. I have never been to this restaurant and I think it's safe to say this was the first and last order I will place here. Not a fan. read more

I went here first then read reviews after which is normally done opposite. I will agree with one of the yelpers that said for a dumpling house, they don't offer many options. Which is true. There are so many other things offered here. Even pecking duck! But mostly things like sesame chicken, general tso chicken, noodle dishes and other options. Hmm I wonder why? Could it be to target the population of who they serve. I don't know the answer to that. I went on a Friday night, it was not very busy, less than 50% occupancy. Service was great, attentive, and they were also happy you are dining in. The pricing on the menu was very affordable, makes me think that it's crazy to have a place like that in that area. It's true, the place does smell when you walk in, but also consider how old this place is. They've been around for a long time. I mean genji's smells when you walk in, but everyone still goes for karaoke. Pick and choose your battles. As I'm waiting for my food I do see TONS, of to go orders being placed, and forgot to mention there's this huge neon green dragon upon walking in. There's like two sides to the place, one separate from green dragon dining area. Let's move to the food: I ordered assorted dumplings and half pecking duck. The pecking duck skin was not crispy, but I absolutely enjoyed that it was not super greasy like other places. Like it tasted healthier if that makes sense. The dumplings were not folded or presented as modern as we all know to be. They also said I can order all dumplings pan fried if I want. I would say... it's ok. The food was ok, but I am giving this place 4 stars because service was great, vibe was decent, and food was decent and inexpensive. If I was a student at UST OR UH. I would've been going ham coming here. It's a place where it's comfortable, you get to know your servers, and easy to have a relationship with the owner if you come frequently. With that being said, support local yall. read more
