So yummy! I tried the Eggplant with Garlic Sauce, cream cheese puffs, and vegetable egg roll. I loved every bite the day of and enjoyed eating it the next day just as much! I ordered my food to go, picking it up was a breeze. Looking forward to trying more of their options. read more

Clear Lake Hunan Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

The meat here was really good and so was the soup. I would definitely get just the Mala beef again by itself with the white rice, and I would want to try the fried rice next time. I wasn't a fan of the flat noodles because the veggies just felt a bit lackluster, and the overall flavor wasn't great. Not sure how the Singapore rice noodles tasted, but I think I'd stick to the meat dishes because that was really tender and delicious. The service was good though as our waiter was nice, and we went when there wasn't anyone else, so we got our food within 5 minutes. The ambiance was fine, and it was a pretty big place inside. read more

Clear Lake Hunan Restaurant is packed in a business/shopping strip, but parking is not a problem. From the outside, you'd think this place was a hole-in-the-wall, but Hunan is pretty classy inside. The staff are hospitable. They have a vast menu selection with varying prices. However, when I first arrived, I found some hair on the serving plate off my soup. YUCK! Our server took it back, but didn't apologize. I was still charged with that exact soup I originally ordered! Outrageous! You would think after a deplorable incident like that, they would take that off my order as compensation, but NO! I'm not sure if I'll come back here or not. read more

Rewriting the review since I was very agitated at the time of publishing So facts were that I was the only diner, late afternoon One lone diner left soon after I sat I noticed my dish was taking longer than normal but i was happy eating the crispy wontons and my delicious egg drop soup So when the guy brings my dish, i see his thumb inside my rice due to the way he is holding it but i stayed silent I started eating my dish and noticed a thick reddish oil ring all around the sauce This has happened once before and the girl waitress got me a new dish This time, in addition, the sauce was also watery and soupy. I was waiting for the guy to come but that didn't happen so I got up looking for the waiter and the cook that had been resting in the section behind me got up to call the guy. The guy shows up and while I am telling him the dish is not good, he hands me the bill. The End. read more

3/10 star This place was the crown jewel of Chinese restaurants in the area. It seems that since the days when it was located in the Fairway Plaza shopping center, it's not been the same. I haven't had it in 6 months and then, it was tasty. On this day, the quality sealed it's fate for us. Pork Egg Roll - Tiny and soggy (as compared to their standard) Jalapeno Chicken - First Time trying this here. Chicken pieces were extremely tough and inedible and the veggies were overcooked. Honey Shrimp - First Time trying this. Large shrimp, but the batter was waaay too thick and had a weird texture and honey flavor. Combo Fried Rice - Quality and taste are not the same. it's as if this is not the same owner and recipes of times past. I debated whether I should have patronized, Panda Express as with being a national chain, the quality standards are high. Also, the tracking app doesn't work as my food was waiting on my porch 15 minutes past the estimated delivery time and no one rang the door bell. For the amount of money spent, tip included, in this economy, I give Hunan a 3/10 and live with the fond memories of yesterday. Sorry. read more

I've gotten lunch here several times and the food is consistently good. I've had several dishes, including cashew chicken and hunan chicken. The lunch special is great. You get soup and an eggroll. I always have leftovers! We tried Hunan-star and it was gross. Clear Lake hunan is light years better and they have free delivery. read more

This place is located in a strip mall and is roomy and relatively clean. We visited here on a Saturday afternoon shortly after the lunch hour and were seated next to a table stacked with rolled napkins, sauces, etc. It was odd considering that there was only one other seated table in the joint. I believe there were two people working the restaurant -- the dude in the kitchen and the lady working the front. She was polite but her service was seriously lacking. First, my bottle of Tsing Tao came with a cold mug. That's great, except the bottle wasn't opened. Thankfully, my wife has a contraption on her keychain to open bottles. She brought the second bottle sealed as well. When we asked her to open the bottle, she looked dumbfounded. Polite ... but confused. The hot & sour soup here contains a bevy of ingredients compared with other Chinese joints. That said, mine was on the sweet side, and I had to add chile peppers and a lot of soy sauce. Additionally, it was served lukewarm. (The server put it in the microwave for me.) Egg rolls were served similarly lukewarm and stale. The server acknowledged that they had been under a lamp for a while. Per our request, they dropped a couple more and brought them out hot. While the egg rolls are decent, they definitely aren't rolled in-house. I would not order them again, as they taste similar to the egg rolls in the grocer's freezer section. I ordered beef & snow peas as an entree and was told that the place was out of snow peas. It happens, but it certainly didn't help an already disappointing situation. Instead, I ordered the appetizer salt & pepper calamari and some eggplant in garlic sauce. -- both were delicious. The calamari was fried in a batter (versus the breaded stuff in most other restaurants), while the eggplant was nicely cooked in a sweet-hot garlic sauce. My wife had egg foo yung. It was the first time she'd ordered it in years. Though my sample bite was good, she wasn't overly impressed. I really wanted to like this place more than I did, but the restaurant itself has to make an effort. I really feel like there was no such (effort) during my visit. read more

While the place was clean, thin Cheap plastic table cloths on the table. We were a party of four adults. We split the check and told the other couple we would pick up the tip. We checked out first then the other couple checked out and did not tip. The owner then laughed and said you're cheap. That was not only rude but very uncalled for. I will never visit here again. read more

This has been a family favorite my entire life. Food has always great and consistent. Seems to be family owned but they hire the local kids too. I've been here hundreds of times both to carry out and dine in. Have never had a meal I didn't like. Now my kids are grown up and they enjoy it just like I did growing up. Service is always stellar. It's a place you can dine in formally with a date or your in-laws or just come thru with friends casually. In the old Randall's parking lot near Space Center Eye Associates, Bank of America, and Pizza Hut behind the Chevron on the corner. Never a bad choice if you're looking for something to eat. My family's favorites (teenage daughters) - spring rolls, cream cheese puffs, chicken and corn soup, fried rice, lol mein, Mongolian beef, lemon chicken, Kung Pao anything, and General Tso's Chicken. Enjoy read more

My local favorite! Staff very welcoming and accommodating. Informative too, never knew they deliver. Great food each time.

Wanted to like this place, but to be honest it's just your average American-Chinese food. Got a few different dishes labeled as spicy (Sichuan bean curd, which I think is their take on ma-po tofu, and Kung pao chicken) and neither of them had much spice or flavor. We also ordered shrimp egg fo young but they got our order wrong and we ended up with some sort of noodle soup instead. There are so many other good authentic Chinese restaurants in Houston, so I don't think we will be back. Otherwise, food was fast, people were nice, curbside pickup and decent value. read more

Today I had a strong desire for fried rice, so I made my stop. I walked in 11 minutes after they opened (they open at 11a) and sat down immediately. Within a minute my order was taken. I know I said I wanted fried rice but when I walked I changed my mind to MA-LA Chicken. I ordered the Lunch special -Entree, Egg roll, Rice and soup. My wonton soup with the chips came out first. Two minutes after I made my order and it was good. The cup of soup comes with two noodles. FYI I ordered a regular take home of wonton soup and there were at least 8 noodles. My entree arrived to my table on my last three spoons of Soup-that's what I call perfect timing. I started with the egg roll; dipping it ever so harshly into the duck sauce. Why??? Because it was so good. My Ma-la Chicken was the BOMB!!! The chicken was very tender. The flavor was sweet with a nice hint of spiciness. read more

Great Chinese food takeout. Everything was cooked perfectly and quickly. counter service was great as well.

Clearlake Hunan is our go-to Chinese takeout. The food is always on point and the delivery is always on time or early. We've been going here since 2014 and will continue. read more

Delicious Peking Duck. So very much appreciate them accommodating us since we'd forgotten to order ahead. Sooo much food! Choice of steamed buns or pancakes. We prefer buns. Julienned spring onions and the carved duck skin really made each bite special! A great surprise was the Peking Duck soup, with broth made from the duck bones rendered from carving. Swimming in the rich broth was ample tofu and cabbage. It's just the two of us so, after eating our fill, we have takeaway for days. Just another reason to return soon to Clear Lake Hunan. Our young server, Bob (as noted on receipt), was courteous, conscientious, and unobtrusive. Great service for a great meal. Thanks, again, Bob! read more

It has been a while since my original review but we had such awesome service today that I felt compelled to update. We have been ordering steadily from this restaurant since my original review and today was the first time we had any sort of issue, in that we were missing a sauce. They remedied it in less than 15 minutes. Food was awesome as it has been. We got a take out menu in the mail that looked suspiciously like the menu from our favorite that had recently closed. Best take out we have had since Fairway went out of business! Hot, fresh and super fast delivery! I had eaten here once about 3 years ago and didn't like it, someone has made some serious changes for the better! read more

This is our go to Chinese food place in the neighborhood. Food is always good and prices are reasonable. It's very nice inside but most people get foid to go so if you eat there it's almost like a private party. Try the Chicken Sticks. read more

Usually one of my go to places when I'm in the clear lake area. Recently took a friend to eat there and service was on point per usual. It was moderately busy , that's how you know it was good. Ordered the dinner special, a main entree with a soup of your choice. For the main I got the curry chicken. It was great the one the better plates. Vegetables & chicken were cooked well. But the soup is where I was let down. The wonton soup to be exact. Broth was great and everything but when i took a bite the taste was a off. I hope it was just that time. Overall fye! read more

Quick service at reasonable prices. Granted not the best Chinese food but it is good and you are getting your monies worth. I have being buying from them for 30+ years,. They have been through several owners in those thirty years. To improve, run some specials such as seasonal vegetables or special cuts of meats etc read more

Service was nice. Food was hot but tasted like old grease. I didn't wind up eating the food and would not return.

Awesome and fast service. Visited yesterday for the first time and the employees were very nice and the service was great. The food was delicious and will definitely recommend this place. Will definitely visit again. read more

I'll be honest... I don't think high quality when I think of Chinese take-out. I think fast food that gets the job done and is in some weird way, oddly satisfying but keeps me wanting more an hour later. While being Chinese take-out (and an attractive sit-down restaurant on the inside), Clear Lake Hunan not only got the job done, but amazed me as well. My expectations weren't high. I just wanted some food delivered to my hotel room after a long day of work. It's been a while since I ordered, so I can't quite recall the names of what I had, but I can definitely recall the flavors. The spare ribs were delicious. Not too saucy, not too dry, and cooked all the way through. The fat was actually crispy! That never happens with ribs from a take-out place. The fried chicken nuggets with red peppers? I ordered that at least two times. Never had a bad meal and everything was truly on point. The staff was friendly and kept the place looking nice and clean. Hopefully, I'll be able to visit Clear Lake Hunan whenever I'm back in the area. read more

Clear Lake Hunan Restaurant - I asked for 8 wings and got these monsters. Yeeeessss~ - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

We've been eating here for a long time. It has slowly gone downhill. We've stuck with them until now. They reached bottom. Chicken dishes had scraps of rubbery skin and tiny bits of meat. Two separate chicken dishes were both were this way. I'm done! read more

Food The food was average for Chinese. I had the Honey Chicken off of the Lunch Specials, which came with a wonton soup, fried rice, and an egg roll. The honey chicken is chicken white meat seared in honey sauce. The honey sauce was a bit too sweet, thick, and sugary. The chicken itself seemed like it was just deep fried and seemed like they were just frozen buffet chicken tenders, nothing too special. The fried rice was pretty delectable, but a little plain from what you would usually find in a Chinese restaurant. The soup along with the egg roll was very nectarous. The soup came with crispy wonton chips, which went along with the soup very well. Service The service was efficient and was quick to get anything that was needed. The waiter was very friendly after finding out we spoke Vietnamese. Atmosphere The restaurant was very beautiful inside with many decorations. It looks pretty small from the outside, but is spacious on the inside. The restaurant was also pretty empty, but I noticed that many people were calling in to make to go and delivery orders. read more

Tucked inside the Randall's shopping plaza, Clear Lake Hunan is a Chinese restaurant serving your standard American Chinese food. They've got your General Tso's chicken for your "it's Chinese food so it's gotta be healthy" thinkers, plus the egg rolls and fried rice. But they also serve more "traditional" dishes that come chock full of veggies (win!)~ :D I like how they cater towards your needs-- we asked for less salt in all out dishes, so my salt-phobian Asian parents could eat take out without complaining about how salty restaurant food is after every bite~ The dishes don't have that heavy goopy sauce that they seem to put in every dish either ^^ The taste is okay, nothing anything out of this world, but the prices aren't expensive and depending on what you order, can make a healthy choice when you don't have time to make dinner~ Seems like a lot of Clear Lake families order take out or delivery from here :) Take out orders are safely packed in sturdy containers, so you don't have to worry about sauce leaking out from styrofoam. There doesn't seem to be any dishes that are specially "Hunan..." It's a nice change from Hunan Star on Bay Area, but If you're looking for dishes with more kick and flair, visit Chinatown in Bellaire! read more

We have ordered from Clear Lake Hunan many many times. The food is really good and the price is right. Usually, we order our favorites Sweet and Sour Chicken and Beef and Broccoli. The Wonton And Sweet and Sour Soups are so delicious. We always order extra Egg Rolls every time they are so good. We recently tried the General Tso Chicken and Egg Foo Young and was not disappointed. The staff is very professional and courteous. We will continue ordering from this restaurant because we love it. Give them a try and we promise you will not be disappointed the food is FANTASTICO! read more

This is basically the "Panda Express" of non-corporate leviathan suburban Chinese places. The food is edible for shizzle, but that's about it. It is not overwhelmingly good, tasty, satisfying, or worth seeking out for its own merits. If you are nearby and need some Chinese, then yeah, by all means. As Diane H. notes below, special requests are not likely to be honored even though you get the nod like they totally understand you do not want xyz. Take out? Meh. Hunan Star take-out is way better. read more

I use to go to many chinese restaurants around the world so i am a quite of chinese food specialist. Nothing special on this one. Chinese food prepared by hispanic people. We could heard they talking and listening spanish music out loud at the kitchen from our table. My kids also thought could be better. Too many sauce and spices on all dishes. You taste only the same sauce. And we ordered 2 meat dishes and both meats are so tenderized maybe they marinate a lot that's why all food was so spice or they use some unhealthy condiment to tenderize cheaper meats as eye round. read more

Just ordered takeout, Food was real good and quick . Great little neighborhood place.The service was nice and courteous.

Each Chinese restaurant seem to make General Tso's Chicken different. This place makes it the way I like it and their egg roll is better than average. We go here for lunch and It's all I eat here. My wife has the Shrimp & Mixed Vegetables or Chicken & Mixed Vegetables. I don't recommend the sweet & sour pork. We shared it once and it was a 2 star dish. They seem too under-staffed, so service is often slow. Another negative, they save money on heating & AC. It's too warm in the summer and too cold in the winter. My wife is not a fan, so I don't go as often as I'd like. If I can twist her arm I'd like to try their Peking Duck some night. [Since I wrote this we rounded up two other couples and did the Peking Duck. It wasn't a good as I'd hoped.] We've Eaten Out Every Meal for 30 years read more

I was down in clear lake running errands with the gf and we were in a rush so opted for chinese take-out. The decision came after seeing quiznos or this place. It was mid afternoon but we still qualified for their lunch specials. The prices were fair like 7 bucks for a combo with soup, egg roll, 2 scoops of rice and an entree. I had the general tso's chicken and my gf had the chicken with mixed vegetables. Both dishes were edible, nothing spectacular. I did however, enjoy my egg drop soup which had corn? in it. As far as the interior, this place has a very chic look to it. For strip center chinese food, it looks like they put some money into it. Nice tables and chairs, granite counter tops, and very top notch service. I think this place might be worth dining instead of just taking out. read more

One of my favorite Chinese restaurants! I try to come here whenever I'm in the Clear Lake area. They are located in the Randall's parking lot and have 2 entrances - one take out and one dine in. Don't worry it doesn't really matter which one you go in through. For the most part I've always just gotten take out from here but they do have a nice dining room. Food recommendations include the chicken and sweet corn soup, pork egg rolls, pork dumplings, and beef with broccoli. They have a lot of combo specials and just about any type of traditional Chinese food here. They also have a bar and serve a full bar menu. Their prices are a little high but it is hard to find any cheap Chinese food places in the clear lake area vs the rest of Houston! read more

They have just reopened. The place is beautiful, food was perfectly cooked and delicious. The wait staff was right there when our drinks got low. But weren't intrusive at all. Wonderful experience.

I wanted to find good hunan. Was disappointed. The sauce is sweet. Not supposed to be sweet. This gave it an odd flavor. Hope I dont get sick. It also seemed to be premade and reheated instead of freshly cooked. I guess I will have to continue my quest to find good Asian cuisine in Houston. I had high hopes here because of the name. read more
