Best Chinese food in Houston, Texas! If you're looking for delicious Chinese food in Houston, this is my go-to spot. The service is always fast and friendly, the restaurant is clean, and the food is consistently fresh and high quality. I almost didn't want to share this place because it's one of my favorite hidden gems, but great local businesses deserve the recognition and support. If you stop by, do yourself a favor and order the General Tso's Chicken extra crispy it's absolutely worth it. I Highly recommended! read more

I don't even know where to begin because the authentic Chinese food here is SO good! I can't believe it took me this long to try this place. The prices are very reasonable, the staff is attentive and friendly, and every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean and consistently busy, which is always a good sign. We brought our dad here for a Father's Day late lunch around 2 PM and were seated within about 15 minutes. We ordered the mapo tofu, chicken feet, har gow, stir-fried flat noodles, walnut shrimp, water spinach with garlic, and my absolute favorite... the Princess Chicken. The Princess Chicken was hands down the best I've ever had! Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly. I can't wait to come back and try the Peking duck next! read more

In Houston, there are a plethora of Asian places to choose from but we chose East Wall because of their Peking duck. It was tender, crispy and made so well. The walnut shrimp was great but way too much mayonnaise. The dumplings could have been better but the eggplant was the best. Definitely a stop in for Peking duck and the eggplant! read more

Truly a hidden gem to me. I don't usually go out for Chinese style food but this place hit all the right spots. The food was amazing the ambiance reminds you very much that you're in a nice Chinese restaurant. The service was iffy, they brought out the food but never brought out bowls or rice. So my group had to wait about 10 mins just for them to bring out the rice and bowls. Thats the only negative I can say. My favorite dish I had was the princess chicken. The flavor of the chicken was the best I've ever had with this variation of this dish. If you like hainanese chicken or similar to it you must get the princess chicken. read more

East Wall Restaurant on Bellaire. An incredible opportunity to put together a dinner for 10 for Chowhound Dana LeJeune's visit. The food kept coming. All we said was "dinner for ten". The food just kept coming. I learned that seafood is often a focus as is considered celebratory cuisine. read more

Ordered here for a mini lunar new year feast! Everything was very tasty and affordable- the shrimp stuffed eggplant was delicious as well as the whole steamed fish- the only thing I could pass on were the soup dumplings- good but nothing special. Last time our mandarin class ordered lots of stuff from here and the braised pork belly and sweet and sour chicken were SO flavorful and good read more

The restaurant is not very big, the the ambiance and decor were very nice. Parking can be a big problem if you go there during busy hours. Fish filet--excellent, very tasty, texture of the filet was just perfect. Vegetable (dou mil) was very tender, not tough or stringy. Salt and pepper tofu cubes--very good. Roast duck--very good and very tasty. It almost taste like Peking duck, but costs a lot less. Vegetarian chow fun--it is o k . Should have more toppings like black mushrooms , mixed vegetables--not mainly bean sprouts. General Tao chicken--very tasty but the coating is a little too thick for my liking. I feel like I am eating more batter than chicken. The service was fast enough, cuz there were only 3 other tables in use. Overall, the food was very good and the presentation was also very pleasant. read more

Solid. Really good food...even better customer service. Will definitely come back again and try some new dishes.

We frequent this spot. Usually grab the Peking duck but decided to change it up today. Ordered the Honk Kong style pork, tofu mixed grill, and a cup of corn and chicken soup. All items were great. Will be back. read more

East small restaurant is known for their Cantonese Chinese food. We arrived as a party of six around 7:30 PM on a Saturday evening and we do not have to wait for a table. Although we did have to wait about 20 minutes for food after we ordered. Overall, the vibe is lively, service is friendly in the food is decent. I would recommend the eggplant dish, stirfry noodles and the salt and pepper fish. read more

Place is clean staff were very friendly. I ordered the kung pao chicken, combo chow mean, and custard buns. The chow mein was nice and crispy and had beef, shrimp, fish balls, and imitation crab meat. The kung pao chicken had a lil heat to it and was flavorful, but lacked the peanuts. The custard buns had a strange consistency. The custard was runny and had sugar grains in it, wasn't very enjoyable. Overall the place is nice, I'd return to try other things on the menu. read more

The Chinese food here is not limited to one region as they have Peking Ducks to Dim Sum here. This place is really the real taste of China, all of the dishes I had here are very good but the Peking ducks is one of the best in Houston, they also give you the gua bao instead of the typical wheat wrapper. The decoration feels very classy on the inside. The service is top notch here. They also have great bottle fee for BYOB here. You have to visit here for some really good Chinese food with the service to match it. read more

My daughter and I had dinner here last night. She wanted Peking Duck so we specifically picked a restaurant that had good reviews for that dish based on other Yelp reviews. The restaurant is located within a huge (must be over 50+ restaurants/shops), very busy busy within Chinatown. Parking can be challenging at times. The decor is a bit dated, but overall pretty clean. The service was very good. We had: Peking Duck (5/5) - Very happy we came to this restaurant for this dish. One of the best we've ever had anywhere. If we craved Peking Duck, we would definitely come back. Xiao Long Bao (4/5) - This was our 2nd favorite dish of the night. A good version of this traditional dumpling dish. Hot and Sour Soup (3.5/5) - Was okay, decent version of this soup. Steamed Prawns w/ garlic and vermicelli (2.5/5) - For me, this was a miss. The "prawns" are just medium-sized shrimp. Pretty flavorless dish overall with a hint of sweetness that wasn't great. I would definitely not order again. For anything other than the duck, we would go to other Chinese restaurants. But we would come back for the duck! read more

Decided on a Jewish Xmas, and went here for Xmas day. It was my bf's first one. We agreed on Peking duck as the must have; flexible of everything else. Of course I asked my most trusted Yelp Elite, where do you enjoy Peking duck? He gave me three places, and said, "I love everything at east wall actually lol". My non-Asian, and non-Jewish bf was so eager for our dinner plans. When we got into our booth, he did a bit of a dance in his seat! When we got our first order, he was practically a Super Bowl fan who just got the food spread and the game started. It was so endearing! The place was CROWDED inside and outside. The other patrons were nice, very decent people of all kinds of heritage. Food: My Yelp Elite friend's food discernment is still well-attuned! Would not score anything under an 8/10. We ordered the walnut shrimp (8/10), Peking duck (10/10), wonton soup (9/10), Asian broccoli (9/10). Service: Solidly good. They accepted reservations, including for the duck on such a popular day/lots of people. The hostess kept good track of who's next and how long wait is, etc. The rest of staff were pleasant but also getting the job done in good time. The cooks -- how do you stay reliably good on such a day?! Ambiance: Nice for dinner! Despite the crowd, and likely the long day for the employees. Romantically lit enough interior. Felt good. Perfect night. It was so perfect, as we loaded into vehicle, my bf proclaimed this can be our tradition. And we gotta come back for this and this and this and this and this.... I wholeheartedly agree. read more

Good food, service was friendly and accommodating. The dining space is small but they managed to fit all of us on to 4 tables of 10. Of course for a party that size you need a reservation. Parking is a pain but there is a garage if you don't mind walking. Food was tasty. We started with roasted duck, chicken, duck feet with mushrooms and chinese broccoli, bitter melon and eggs, mustard greens with salted egg and preserved eggs, steamed fish with olive and steamed fish with soy sauce and lobster with Noodles and mix vegetables. All in all a very tasty meal. read more

I think I found my new favorite Chinese restaurant. I found this place on Yelp, really didn't too much of it. But man was I wrong. Not only is the food delicious, but the service is impeccable. Jamie, went above and beyond trying to find out what chicken I wanted. I told her I had this really good chicken in Virginia, and with my limited Chinese, I couldn't differinate between the two types of chicken they had on their menu. She was so patient and took the time to hear me describe and look at my photos, really wanting me to get *the* chicken I had desired. She explained what was what and how they cooked it. I swear, us talking about chicken was probably over 10 minutes. In the end, the chicken we thought was it, wasn't what I had in mind. So we ended up ordering other dishes: peking duck and xiao long bao. Jamie randomly came back and showed her phone saying she found the chicken I was talking about. Man, she really tried to investigate for me, even after we had ordered! I don't know if she's the manager or not but Jamie is truly the best. Now I've had peking duck at various places before but this one beats them all. The skin is so light and crispy while maintaining its flavor. The meat itself is thinly sliced to perfection. Writing about this makes me want to go back already. The soup dumplings were good as well, but the duck is the main star. For desert we had the fried buns, it's a change from the usual steamed buns so I quite enjoyed it. read more

Waitress was very rude and they don't even tell you that they will charge you for the rice, they just bring it out.

The food was good. Portions are good enough for 3 people maybe not too bad i guess. The food tasted good and was pretty quick. Walnut shrimp had an interesting flavor i couldn't tell it i liked it or not. I also got the shrimp dumpling which was pretty good. The custard bun i would not get again. read more

We will definitely be back to see Jamie again! read more

I brought my Chinese father-in-law here who is very picky about food, and he actually enjoyed it which says a lot. I come here at least twice a month and the food is always good and consistent. The flat noodles are one of my favorites and the General Tso's chicken is another solid choice. The flavors are great, the portions are satisfying, and the service is always reliable. This spot never disappoints. read more

I've been coming to East Wall for several years now and always have a great family style meal here. I have fond memories of coming with my dad to enjoy the Peking duck and when they made me a believer it is truly #1. The service is attentive and may get a little challenging when it's busy but they will come around and check on you. We've celebrated birthdays, holidays, and just eating with friends days here. They do allow BYOB with a corkage fee and we've seen plenty of parties bring in cakes to celebrate as well. Parking can get tricky but there are garages in that plaza. read more

This place is decent. The food was good, and the service was fine overall--a solid spot to bring the family for a casual meal. That said, the experience wasn't perfect. We asked for soy sauce three times and never got it, which was frustrating. Small details like that make a difference, and it felt like they dropped the ball. The food was okay--nothing amazing, but it got the job done. While it's a good option for a family outing, the service issues and lack of standout flavors make it hard to rate any higher. read more

Outstanding service and excellent food. We loved the Peking duck! The dumplings were excellent too. Enjoy this place every time.

We always order from here this time we ordered a whole duck and this is what they gave us. Barely any vegetables or meat and when we called to ask they did nothing. Soup is usually complimentary when we eat there and they charged us $5 to add it to our order. read more

The old record of 5 Peking ducks was dominated this fine evening, Feb 15th, 2026. 6 Peking ducks were consumed with tactical eating and digestive prowess. Let it be known, the duck boys have established dominance. We strongly suggest all of the Peking duck at this fine establishment. read more

dined here on christmas eve and had a great experience! service was fast with no long wait, I was seated almost immediately. my server gave excellent suggestions, and the menu has so many options to choose from. the food arrived in under 30 minutes. highly recommend the fried dough with sugar sprinkled on top I love the crunch and richness of the dough. the fried rice was a 10/10: very fresh tasting, not heavy on soy sauce, and no burnt egg flavor. you also don't feel lazy or sluggish after eating here, which is a big plus. the interior is beautiful! very classic and authentic, more so than any chinese restaurant i've been to. i also ordered the pepper steak and was genuinely surprised by how tender it was. unlike the usual gummy, hard-to-chew pepper steak, this one was easy to eat and digest. WILL VISIT AGAIN! overall, an excellent experience and definitely worth a visit. read more

First time here and it was for dinner with some Yelp friends. There was 12 of us in total, with that being said the wait staff took amazing care of us. From refilling drinks, serving dishes and just being attentive, we never had to look for anyone to help us. This establishment does allow BYOB. Sadly I can not remember the names of all the dishes everything was amazing and was a mixture of so many great flavors. A few dishes that really stood out for me was the Duck for sure. Perfectly cooked and tender! The lobster was another dish that made its presence known! Lobster had a great buttery, garlic taste. The last dish that really surprised me was the shrimp and eggs. It looked pretty simple as it's just scrambled eggs with shrimp but the flavor profile was unbelievable. It was one of the dishes I kept getting more of. I'm ready to go back and try some more dishes! read more

Went here with a group of friends and the food was very delicious! I don't remember the names of everything we ate, but I really enjoyed most dishes.

Jamie was very Awesome food and the music was great. I'm going again any chance I get.

O.M.G. the best peking duck is right here! I've had many peking duck dishes before from all over the country but this is one of my favorites! The duck was so crispy and flavorful and the buns were so fluffy. I also chose to make remainder of the duck as a soup and/or a stir fry - both were delicious! There was an additional few dollars added for the soup and stir fry but it's soooo worth it! I came back to this restaurant a few days later because it was that good! Definitely a traditional hong kong style restaurant (my parent's favorite!) The other soups, clay pots and vegetable stir frys were delicious! The one thing I wouldn't really recommend are the soup dumplings - they were quite small and not enough soup. I highly recommend this spot if you want some authentic cantonese food!! read more

It feels like this place has been in Dun Huang Plaza ever since the plaza originally opened, and I can see why. It's a solid Cantonese restaurant with mostly Cantonese speaking aunties. They also have high chairs for kids so I'd call it pretty kid friendly. Some dishes that are stand out to me: -Salt and pepper squid: this place fries the squid with basil which gives it a lot of flavor -Princess chicken 貴妃雞: the best I've had in Houston. It has the gelatinous shiny coating from being soaked in a marinade broth and is super flavorful -Duck soup: you can order it for an extra $5 when you order peking duck. Their version is the best in Houston to me because they do not skimp on the duck bones, making the soup extra flavorful. Plus it comes in a huge bowl, so it's a good price. -Tofu stuffed with shrimp: I hate tofu and I like this dish. The tofu is light and airy and the shrimp paste in the middle gives it a lot of flavor. Skip: -The duck fried rice you can order for $5 with the peking duck was just aite to me. I'd rather order another one of their fried rices. read more
