Just moved to Dallas and as a big foodie with Chinese at the top of their fav foods list this is my new go to spot. The food is all quality and tastes great! Love myself some bbq ribs which they do the right way and to make it even better they also do their pork fried rice the right way as well! Excited to go back bc on top of the food it's even worth sitting down and eating in person bc it's clean, safe and the employees took real good care of me! When i forgot to order the fried wonton chips they brought it right out to me and didn't even make me pay for it. Will be back soon! read more

Café Hunan - BBQ Pork Spareribs (4), BBQ Pork Fried Rice, fried wonton chips - Chinese Near Me - Dallas, Texas

**This review is based on a Sunday evening to-go order.** While these folks were polite on the phone and in-person -- and the restaurant was bright and clean when I came in to pick up my order -- I cannot recommend this place. First, I ordered the Chinese Fried Chicken (half), which is supposed to be brined in soy and hoisin, then deep fried in a light batter. This chicken was no more brined than a rock in the desert, and it was just as dry, even the dark meat pieces. The steamed rice was fine, as was the beautiful bok choy. The dish, overall was a huge disappointment. The chicken lo mein was also a letdown, as it had an underlying sweetness that I've never experienced with this dish. Two bites were taken and it (along with the chicken) ended up in the hotel trash can. A couple of positives: I enjoyed the hot & sour soup, and the egg rolls tasted as if they were rolled in-house, which is a rarity these days. I live a few hundred miles down the road and don't get to downtown Dallas very often, so the odds of me patronizing this place again is already slim. But, in the event I find myself here in the future, I will avoid this restaurant. read more

The was decent. I've had much better in DFW. The service was extremely slow given that nobody was in the place. They did have a lot of Door Dash orders that went out. It was a nice spacious place with tvs to watch the game. read more

I travel so much and try to eat real food as much as possible! Szechuan shrimp was so fresh and savory. Took no longer than a drive through and the veggies were cooked perfectly! I took it to go but the restaurant was spotless! Going back as soon as I'm back in town! read more

The ribs are amazing too! Hard to believe there are no pictures or video of the ribs along with reviews. Wait no more! I've had the pork fried rice (phenomenal) and the General Chow's Chicken (I hate the their spelling of it too). The chicken was ok. Go with the ribs and you can't go wrong. read more

My first order with Cafe Hunan was just right. Was looking for some classic egg rolls and fried rice and got just that. Delivery was timely and all went really smoothly. Dishes were enjoyable. read more

Decent Chinese food which is an accomplishment in DFW. Stunning incompetence with getting an order right. I've tried so many times and the order is wrong 80% of the time I get a delivery. And of course they never send too much... they always leave something off. It's impossible to say it is not intentional. I believe they do this on purpose. I Talked to the "manager" tonight and she offered me a free entree. No thanks. Fix your broken business. read more

We ordered Hunan for pick up for a quick late night meal. The food was fresh and good portions; which was a plus. The General Tso was flavorful and just the right amount of crisp. This was honestly the best dish as everything else was just okay. Understanding that sticky ribs are sweet, these were just extremely sweet and not as tender as they could have been. The fried rice left a little to be desired as it was simply white rice with a bit of soy sauce. The crispy beef had a great flavor but wasn't crispy at all as the sauce softened it. Overall, okay Americanized Chinese food when you need a fix. read more

I really want to make this a go-to regular spot for Chinese food. But literally half the time I've gone there they are closed - at lunchtime. Parking isn't easy so this is really irritating. The food is good, sometimes the service is great, but they should be open during advertised hours. read more

I'm not sure the cooks here have ever had Chinese food based on my recent and second (and last ) order. My wonton soup had peas and carrots on it with lots of green herbs, maybe parsley! The broth was overly seasoned. The moo goo gai pan had a heavy brown sauce instead of the traditional white sauce. The happy family had imitation crab or old shrimp throughout - it was unrecognizable except for the overly fishy smell and taste that ruined the whole dish. read more

Completely FALSE ADVERTISING for their food. "Springfield style cashew chicken" is NOT SWEET. It is made with hoisin sauce. This dump essentially took their sesame chicken, removed the sesame seeds and threw on a few cashews. ICK! Additionally, their crab Rangoon were so overcooked that they were completely inedible. Skip this place! read more

Great Chinese spot! HUGE portions. Very tasty. The four of us all tried each other's entrees & all were solid: Beef Hunan, Beef Fried Rice, Mongolian Beef, & Happy Family. All delish & plenty of leftovers to go. read more

Food is good. Reliable and quick. Best for take out. This is one of our go tos for a quick dinner.

The food is great and you can see it being prepared in the open kitchen! The light wood provides a very calming interior.

This place has amazing food! I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for good Chinese food. read more

Food is good. I suggest that you triple check orders that are made thru Uber eats app. My last order was incorrect and the restaurant did not offer any solution and neither did Uber eats. That's my only mark against the restaurant. read more

$13 for lunch, although the portion is small, the price is fair. The place is clean, nice to seat and the location is perfect. But the food... low quality. Over cooked, chewy and tastes old. read more

Located off Greenville Avenue off the SMU bar drag strip, it is the perfect food to even out all the alcohol consumed by SMU students at the surrounding bars. Their soups could be more flavorful, but everything else on their menu is pretty good. The large pork egg rolls are great. Fried rice and standard Chinese dishes hold up. They also offer a lunch menu - a positive for these economic times, and portions are generous. We live about a mile from the restaurant, so it's become my go to. Blanca says check 'em out. read more

Decent take out food. Made a large order to feed some friends, and some dishes were better than others. Best dishes - Hunan shrimp, combo fried rice, and moo goo gai pan (mainly for the kids). Ok dishes - Mongolian beef, Kung Pao Chicken. The food was a bit oily, and the hunan shrimp had the best seasoning. I was disappointed with the wonton soup, but the hot and sour soup was also just ok. Good for a quick meal, and decent takeout. read more

Extremely disappointing. I went for a house specialty $21. Orange Beef thinking that it would be quality beef. It was sliced extremely thin & was mostly eating fried dough. The meat that was there was so chewy that my jaw got tired. I had hoped that the beef would had been sliced thicker & cooked so that it was tender even if it looked like less presentation wise.There wasn't one recognizable piece of orange peel. I assume the sauce was right out of a jar. My boyfriend got another house specialty- Chow Chow Chicken,, but again it was just average. Note- there wasn't an Asian person in sight behind the counter. We should have turned around & left. read more

This place is attached to the Mockingbird Flats building, near SMU where everything is a bit overpriced. This is probably the most I've had to pay for very basic and non-authentic Chinese entrees. Besides that sometimes I do enjoy Americanized Chinese food and in that category this place doesn't really disappoint. I was shocked that they actually gave me a decent amount of shrimp in my Kung Pao lunch meal. The over-usage of soy sauce and grease is pretty apparent but everything did look fresh and well presented. The decor is nice and clean. I may come back if someone else wants to. read more

Come here when you get the craving for Chinese food. They have a very nice trendy dining area and the service is friendly. The menu has a wide variety of choices ranging from appetizers, soups, noodle dishes and entrees. I ordered the General Chow Chicken Lunch Special and there was plenty of flavor with a hint of spice. Overall, great place to eat near SMU. read more

I stopped in on a Monday evening and the place was empty. I was a little hesitant but boy was I wrong. The food is good! The "plate" can easily feed two people. It's more like a small platter lol. I really enjoyed the Mongolian beef but they do make it with green onions. I used to it having bell peppers but still very good. If you don't like it spicy be sure to mention that when ordering. My brother in law got the General TSo and it was SPICY! Very good though and the beef broccoli as well. And it turns out they are busy with mostly pick up orders. The dining area is really nice and they also have a few tables out front. Service was awesome! read more

I'm so looking for a more than average oriental food restaurant. Hot and sour soup was not bad, but not good. Truthly I can't remember the entree and that is sad. Neither bad or good. I'm not looking for mediocrity, a palatable distinct dining experience. A restaurant which stands out. read more

Just had Cafe Hunan cater a group of 20. Everyone raved about how good it was. They did a great job & we had plenty of leftovers. Spring rolls, egg rolls, dumplings, fried rice, shrimp with string beans, beef with broccoli & orange chicken all delicious! read more

Good food and good service. I would recommend Cafe Hunan. The menu was full of good choices.

Service was subpar. Everyone behind the counter was touching the food with their bare hands despite touching other surfaces. Unusually long wait despite ordering ahead. read more

Was hoping it would be good bc it's so close to home - but unfortunately it wasn't very good on my first and only go round. Small portions, overpriced, greasy. read more

This is a quick stop by the job. Their lunch menu is a good deal and there is a good amount of food. The food comes out quick and the service is always nice. If you are looking to sit and eat or pick up to go near SMU this place works. I had tofu and green beans. The lunch special comes with fried or jasmine rice and an egg roll. I forgot to take the photo. read more

Excellent service! Everything was fresh and piping hot upon arrival to our table. Clean and quiet spot not too many people when I went. Definitely going back soon! Best friend rice I've had in Dallas. read more

Great string bean chicken and combo fried rice. Fast and hot. Love this place. Super convenient location for SMU and surrounding area.

Good service, good food and it's clean. It's worth the price (which isn't expensive). Normal Chinese food. Fresh! I would recommend and go back. read more

Food is decent. Last time I ordered the crispy wontons were burnt and I had to throw them all away.

We chose Cafe Hunan as they were open Christmas Day. We will go there again and again because the food was great! They were as busy as any restaurant I've seen and they were producing a high quality product. I was very impressed with the finished product and they use top quality ingredients. read more

Best Chinese food I've had in Dallas so far ! Got the Hunan chicken . Highly recommend.

Service was amazing! Met Mark and he was very attentive and provided us with great service and every other table as well. We were definitely impressed. Took the family so we ordered lots of different things: sweet & sour chicken, combo lo mein, combo fried rice and sesame chicken. We all ate everything family style and loved all of it. We were looking for a go to Chinese restaurant and so glad we tried this place tonight! Be back soon. read more
