    Dry Pepper Chicken.
    Wesley D.

    Its great having a a sit-down, nicely built, Chinese Restaurant just down the street. Excellent greeting. Very welcoming. Excellent service. Sui Mai was good. Hot sour soup was good. Ordered one of their Specialties: Dry Pepper Chicken. Funny that their main dishes require adding rice as a side. (+$1/ per cup) Very large portion. Nice and crisp coating. They use chili's and Sichuan Peppercorns for that unique tingle, and mouth watering taste that you get with Sichuan hot peanuts. Recommend ordering a vegetable or 2, as this plate comes with very little veggies. Would love to see them add a daily special list, to keep it interesting, and they dont seem to have a Bar which is unfortunate. Sandy was Fantastic!

    3.75 stars. This new location on St Rose/ Coronado is located right beside Carrot & Daikon. Love that there's an Asian restaurant corner nearby. The food here, just like the other China Mama family of restaurants has full flavor dishes. Our favorite is still the crispy beef. Think sweet & crispy yet tender thin slices of beef jerky (in the best possible way). It's addicting! The cauliflower is also outstanding with its numb tongue flavors. This one is a bit small with several two-top tables. Not enough larger tables. We went on a Thur's afternoon at 2:00 and even though there were a few people in line, by the time we were next to be called only one other party was left. Two large tables were open but they still didn't seat us...waiting for a possible large party at 2 in the afternoon instead of seating the parties waiting? After another 10 minutes, a 2 top finally came available. We were sat and shortly after the party of 3 after us got one of the large tables they were asking for. The restaurant started clearing out after that, so we could have been seated at a larger table. It would have been especially nice since we ordered several dishes and the table was crowded. Honestly, I would recommend going here either before or after main meal times or just order take out. Unless you don't mind waiting quite a bit to sit down.

    Food: - wok fried organic baby cauliflower - crispy eggplant - cucumber salad with mashed garlic - deep fried jumbo shrimp in special sauce - fish filet w/ ginger and green onion - braised pork belly in brown sauce - dry pepper chicken I would get the fish, shrimp and cucumber again. The other items were too spicy for me. We have visited almost all the China Mama locations. This location does not have sun jin bao so that is a bummer for hubby. Service: like the other locations, service is excellent. Ambiance: this place is tiny. Maybe 12 tables? Really surprised they chose such a tiny location for Henderson.

    I know a lot of people were thrilled to have a China Mama open up on this side of town but DO NOT RECOMMEND coming to this one. Walked in at 11:10am on a Sunday. Ten minutes after they opened. Couple people seated, 2 couples waiting in front of us. We all sign up on the iPad just like the other locations. 20 minutes pass by and still no one is being seated. More people are coming in and signing up to wait so the lobby is crowded now. Maybe like 12ish tables NONE of the staff is coming by to greet you or say anything. Zero hospitality One of the lucky customers who was already dining asked to put a to go order in and we over hear the staff saying an hour!?? So how long would it take for people dining to get their food? We decided to leave because this is not service. I was a fan of China Mama not sure if I am now. Safe to say I won't be returning here again. They've opened a bunch of restaurants so this isn't a new business trying to figure it out. Vegas/Henderson has too many good places to dine to be dealing with these terrible logistics

    Empty tables with waiting guests.

    My grade starts with the same letter as their name. China Mama is a popular and successful local chain that now has 8 locations (counting Express, Haochi, and Spring) with the opening of this newest outpost in Henderson. Taking over a modestly sized spot next to Carrot & Daikon (which displaced a taqueria to the next building over for some reason), they're already quite busy due to the hype, fanfare, and maybe poor host management. When we showed up, there were several empty tables and barely anyone on the Yelp Waitlist. Several parties then signed up and piled into the waiting area that consisted of exactly one chair. And nobody got seated for upwards of 20 minutes until perhaps one of the gentlemen behind us on the list complained, after which the host promptly started seating us at the same tables that had remained empty from earlier. The food was problematic. First was the mysterious case of the Pork Soup Dumplings ($13.99, 8 pieces). It came out actually rather quickly to our table, but one dumpling was already torn and every single other one ripped when we tried to lift one from the paper in the steamer tray. They still tasted about as good as they were at another China Mama location, but most of the soup was lost. ... and then several minutes later, another tray of soup dumplings arrived. Since we already got one, we didn't think anything of it except a mix-up and declined it. But we thought about it later and wondered if that was actually supposed to be our order, while we somehow got someone else's order that had sat around and ended up deteriorating as a result. My guess is that this could have happened if the expediter got one ticket and saw this one sitting there, while the chef got another ticket and started prepping a fresh batch. Whatever the case, that was such a shame. And then there was the Honey Walnut Shrimp ($20.99): keyword "walnut." There were maybe one or two pieces of it in the entire dish, which is definitely not the correct ratio. The shrimp was actually more consistently crispy and flavorful on its own than when I tried it before from that other China Mama, but you have to have the walnuts to have a complete dish. Lastly, the Kung Pao Chicken ($17.99) was blisteringly spicy. I tried a couple of bites, which did taste pretty good to me (especially the chopped garlic), then gave up. My mom seemed to enjoy it at least. The Milky Oolong Tea ($7.00 for a pot that served two just fine) was flavorful enough and reminded me of when I tasted it in the past. Complimentary iced water refills arrived often enough. The steamed rice ($1.00) was perfectly cooked. However, the Thai Tea (normally $6.99) seemed to have too low a ratio of tea/spices, so it was mostly a milky tool. On that note, the actual dining area service also had its ups and downs. I had to remind our server of the grand opening promo (random prize draw with $50+ spend, one per table, ends 6/18), and ended up with just a free drink for the trouble. But I forgot the drink and had to rush back in a couple minutes later, and she was nice enough to remake it. That's not enough to overlook all of the aforementioned issues though. Dine at this location of China Mama at your own risk, or maybe drive out to one of the Spring Mountain locations even if you live in Henderson.

    Let's talk about this crispy beef. Words cannot describe the amazement on this plate.

    When we first moved to Vegas, I started following food influencers on tick tock. One in particular, Brandon from Vegas, always seemed like he had solid recommendations. One of the recommendations he had was China. Mama. Now the China Mama he was talking about was on the other side of Las Vegas, so I was super excited when a China Mama opened up down the street. We got to go there the night of the grand opening, and there was a bit of a wait. 20 to 26 minutes, but that wasn't too bad of a wait. We strolled around for a moment and then came back and were seated about 5 minutes later. The overall ambiance of the place is very welcoming and warm, it was definitely busy, but definitely not hectic. The place had a very open-air concept, so you could see right into the kitchen while they were making food. I really enjoyed that because it was nice to see how the food was prepared. The chefs back there were absolutely on point. Watching them was like watching an artist. We were seated at our table and moments later. Kathy our waitress came up to ask if we wanted anything to drink. We opted for Waters, and then perused the menu. The nice thing about this menu is it was not overloaded. They had a lot of really great things but it was not overwhelming. You could probably eat here five or six times and never have the same thing twice. We opted for the cucumber and smashed garlic salad which was super refreshing! Something I would definitely order again. For the main course we ordered the beef soup dumplings, the crispy beef, and a couple small bowls of white rice. I got to tell you, it takes a lot to fill me up and by the time we were finished, we were taking some of the crispy beef home as well as the steamed rice. I can honestly say I am stuffed. I have to brag on Kathy for a minute, one thing I appreciate about good waitresses is when they are attentive but not overbearing. Kathy was so on point, she was always there when we needed her, and was never far away from our table. Our table. She didn't hover, she made great suggestions, and made the overall meal so enjoyable! Definitely ask for Kathy! I really wish I had room for dessert as the desserts looked absolutely fantastic. Oh well, the good news is they're right down the street from my apartment, so we will be frequenting this place often Bottom line? I was looking for a really good Chinese restaurant and I think I found it. In fact, I would say this sits at the top of my list. This one fires on all cylinders, great food, great ambiance, great wait staff, and just a great vibe all the way around. Unless something else comes along, which I highly doubt, you really need to make this your number one Chinese food stop!

    Went back again today, but this time we sat inside it's still their soft opening and they're moving along much better Jay, the manager is on point and navigating to the soft opening they're always difficult, but he's leading the charge doing a great job. Onto the food the sweet-and-sour chicken is absolutely fabulous. If you like sweet-and-sour chicken I definitely recommend you try it. Their combination fried rice is magnificent and their dumplings are the best. Truly happy that they've opened up this restaurant in Henderson it'll be a great addition to the culinary experience Residence will have.

    This well known restaurant chain now has a location in Henderson. I ordered the shrimp Chow Mein, which, was flavorful and had plenty of shrimp. Although, some items weren't available due to the soft opening there was still plenty to choose from. With a solid reputation for serving authentic, great tasting Chinese food it's no surprise its soft opening has garnered large crowds and wait times in excess of 30 minutes. Although, it was very busy the staff did a great job cleaning and clearing the tables in an effort to shorten the wait times. I'm told June 11th is the grand opening, which, will officially add another restaurant to the chains other (7) locations.

    I've been waiting for this China mama to open for the past few months, randomly checking if it's open yet, so I had to stop by today, and although it's soft opening, everyone was great. The food was just as delicious as I remember. It is soft opening right now for the next week and it is a smaller space, I advise to have patience if you decide to go anytime soon, you can check in on their iPad when you get there to reserve a spot in line, and after this week, you can make reservations as well. I'm so excited to have this in the neighborhood.

    Julia Q.

    Came to eat here for an early dinner on Thursday night. It's nice to have a place in the community that has such a stellar reputation. We were very hopeful. 4 of us waited about 20 minutes in the small entrance since it was way too hot outside to wait. The restaurant is way smaller than the other locations with less seating available. After being seated, the waitress was friendly and efficient. We ordered the crispy beef, beef roll, pork chops, fish filet, and house chow mein. They did not disappoint and were all of the same quality and tastes as the original location. The best dish was the crispy beef, sweet and savory and well worth the wait. The least favorite was the chow mein, but you can get chow mein anywhere. Quality Chinese food is hard to find outside of spring mountain, and I'm so glad China Mama chose to pick this area of town to share its tasty dishes. I just wish they picked a larger location.

    Wonton soup & beef w broccoli-- both amazing
    Ina H.

    Went in yesterday for the first time at 6pm and had no problem getting a table right away :) We ordered 2 things: wonton soup and beef w/ broccoli-- both were amazing! Actually tasted better than the one in China town location I'm not sure why :) Our server Vicki was awesome too! They don't serve free tea at this location which is a bummer. But the place is beautiful and lots of parking and love the local crowd over here. So happy we have China Mama now in Henderson. This will be our go-to China Mama from now on. Not planning on going back to the China town location anymore :)

    China Mama is a fantastic addition to Henderson! The location is convenient, and the wait was minimal. I also liked the easy check-in process using the self-service device. Our server, Vicky, was exceptional--friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout our meal. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server, you're in great hands! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The crispy beef was perfectly crispy with amazing flavor, the beef rolls were fresh and satisfying, the green beans were cooked perfectly, and the spicy pork dumplings were a must-try. The portions are incredibly generous for two people, so plan on enjoying leftovers for lunch the next day. Great food, excellent service, and a wonderful dining experience. I highly recommend China Mama and can't wait to come back!

    Be aware they do not serve certain staple items at this location. Specifically they're pan fried dumplings. They do have some different dishes that the other locations dont. The space is small, cozy food is excellent, though the crispy beef is mostly batter and not much meat. Service is good. They're kitchen can be seen from the dining room, so you can watch food being made as you wait. Prices are decent for the portion size. Now thats its in Henderson, it makes it close for people who don't want to travel all the way to China town

I had some favorite ramen shops in Philly that I still think are stellar, but the one thing they were missing was this minced pork. I will add that **** to EVERY kind of ramen bowl! I like it even more than the char siu! I ordered the takoyaki appetizer and was not disappointed. I must have been a cat in a past life because I am obsessed with bonito fish flakes and you can never put too many of those on top. The only thing I struggle with is the fact that I feel guilty eating octopus, so I don't order takoyaki as often as I used to. The service is friendly and the beer is cold. The ambience is relatively low lighting, cozy izakaya vibe, with modern touches in the decor. The icing on the cake is the face that they have melon cream soda. Ramen. Minced Pork. Beer. Melon soda. Cozy, clean atmosphere. You don't have to twist my arm to get me to tell you I'm a regular now. My mom tried tonkatsu for the first time and I'm happy to report that she really liked it. (I knew she would.) Also, if you are a sometimes solo diner like me, this is a nice little hideaway for that too.

    Japanese food is among my favorite types of cuisine in the Valley, but with how many ramen shops…read morethere are all over town, I don't usually spring for ramen unless it's truly exceptional -- and this place is exceptional. I think it might even be up there as one of my new favorite ramen spots in town, alongside Hashi in Chinatown and Kyuramen in Anthem! The best part is, with how close this restaurant is to my place, I don't have to make nearly as long of a drive if I want ramen. Umai Ramen is located in the Target shopping complex on Sunset and Stephanie, tucked away in the line of shops between Hobby Lobby and Ross. I first spotted this place when I went to the nearby H&R Block to get my taxes done earlier in the year, but I never really had an excuse to come out here until I had the ramen craving strike, and hard -- hence why I decided to bite the bullet and check the place out. One of the things that struck me immediately was their offerings -- of course, they have ramen of all types as you might guess from the name. But they also have different styles of ramen that you don't typically find anywhere, like the more elusive mazemen no-broth ramen, udon noodles, and even tsukemen-style ramen! To say nothing of some of the appetizers -- again, while they have the typical offerings of other noodle houses in town, they also have a selection of items that you really can't find anywhere else. They have multiple types of ramen with unusual toppings, such as their truffle ramen with mushrooms and steak (I need to try that next time I'm here), but I went pretty safe with their black garlic ramen, considered a signature item on their menu, and added an extra egg to it. If I were honest, I didn't need it because the ramen was so full of delicious toppings that I couldn't put my chopsticks or spoon down! Their appetizers are also a must -- I ordered their orange salmon and mango scallops, and I would highly recommend both of those as well. Between bites, the servers would check in on me, refill my water, and provide additional napkins as needed, as well. Needless to say, I'm hooked -- and already I'm thinking of the next time I go here! What will I try next? If you're in the area, give Umai Ramen a try. You just might come back for more.

    Broth flavor 1.5/5 Umai means "good" in Japanese. What Umai…read morewas lacking in flavor was umami (savory taste). This leads me to believe the broth was made in minutes, not hours like the preparation of the best ramen broths are made in. Temperature 4/5 The temperature of the broth was almost perfect. Noodles 2/5 The noodles tasted like it was packaged or dried, similar to instant noodles. Presentation 2.5/5 Average Sliced Pork (chacshu) 4.5/5 Extremely tender and flavorful. It could have been a 5, if it weren't for the abnormally thinly sliced pork. Condiments lacking: 2/5 (no shoga-red ginger, seaweed, or shichimi togarashi) Service: Friendly and minimal 3/5 Overall: Are there better ramen restaurants to choose from? Most definitely! Should you avoid this ramen restaurant? Not necessarily. It wasn't terrible, and the sliced pork couldn't have been much better. Will I be returning customer? Probably not.

    This place was a bit inconspicuous to find as I went upstairs first but realized they are…read moredownstairs overlooking water street. Place is a good size, decorated nicely, and has great staff. Food is Wonderful. 10/10. I got the "taco's" and got the mini beet tostada's. It was mini corn shells that taste homemade, beautiful golden beets, a horseradish drizzle and pickled red onions. I could have easily eaten 10. I also had the crispy Brussels sprouts which had a sweet start but finished with a nice spice/heat. They were so amazing I didn't want it to end. I also enjoyed chips and guacamole, spicy edamame, and a few rolls off my friend's plate which was avocado and tuna. Everything I ate was so good and I cannot wait to come back for more. Next time I hope to try to corn ribs and the crispy cauliflower. But I will never ever not get the beet tostada's

    Wifey and I decided to check out a Desert Dogs game and heard good things about Chinitas. So…read morefigured it's tapas and sushi, we can get some little things before the game. First, give yourself time to park. Water Street can be a little hard to find parking at times. Nothing that the restaurant has to do with. The food was good. Nothing crazy exciting, but good. We got some lettuce wraps, some rolls, steak frittes and some nigiri. Wasn't very fusion to me. Different cuisines yes. But no fusion as far as combining flavors. Service: Service was good. Nothing super memorable but nothing bad at all. Which I'll take over bad service any day. Ambiance: Small little place. Cozy. 2 top tables are pretty small. So don't order to much at once. It won't all fit. All in all, just kinda average. We live pretty far, so unless friends want to go, will probably try somewhere different on Water St. next time.
