This is really a 4 star review but the service here has always been top notch and lately I've been fed up with incompetency in this leg of a meal everywhere else. I don't expect for my trump to be wiped after every bite by someone standing behind me with a napkin but common sense things like being able to read your customer if they are looking down at the menu and not letting them get a good thought on what they want before looking up giving you the cue to come to the table to answer questions, yes, that was a run on sentence but it's the only way I could put it at this moment. These guys are good at reading their customers and the team work is there. I have yet to have a bad meal here in my 15 plus times here but then again I always seem to order the same things over and over so I will need to. The Sesame Shrimp is to die for but I don't mean by choking on a piece that went down the wrong angle through my throat one night almost calling for the Heimliecht maneuver but that sauce just makes you want to ask for that stuff in a large bottle to take home and eat it with everything you can. The General Tso Tofu, just as good if not better (health wise) as the General Tso's chicken. I mean, the sauce is just right, not too tangy, not too runny, a zing of spice but will not surprise you even to a guest if they've visited from another part of the country where there really isn't a "thing" for spicy food. The Moo Soo Shoo wth Pork, I don't remember how it was spelled on the menu but it is pork in a heavy black sauce (Hoisin?), shredded and with crepes. My only complain is when I read "crepes" I am thinking the egg, milk, flour, sugar batter that is fried wafer thin but apparently somebody got the idea to steal 4 flour tortillas out of Jose's lunch box in the back and place it on the plate to be served as that dish. It was good though, I had that dish modified to be spicy and they sure stepped up to bat with that. The only maybe no so great but not bad food I had there was the combination crepes (with the 4 flour tortillas again). It had a combination of vegetables such as bean sprouts (or was that shredded cabbage? oh well), shredded chicken just like the Moo Soo wth pork but with chicken meat, a plate of "Hoisin sauce" to spread on your tortilla and make like a Chinese Taco. Parking is ok at night time since they usually aren't busy Monday through Thursday but I'm sure at lunch that if you do not get here before 11:30 a.m. then you might as well have been working in an adjacent office because you WILL NOT find a parking place here, you have been fairly warned.

I normally enjoy more aesthetic and cozy type of restaurants, but this restaurant is definitely great if you are looking for a quick and homey place to eat. The food was authentic, clean and tasty. The appetizers were light and flavorful. The egg drop soup was good, not to much egg, not too much broth just perfectly flavorful. I enjoyed the crispy spring rolls. The taste was great inside like the crispy outside of the spring roll. The main meal was amazing. I ordered the Lo Mein. It was tasty and when we left, I picked the noodles and chicken off the plate. I also had the pork Szechuan . It was sweet and spicy. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to the public. Try it. All Yas read more

Ordered Fu's Garden for take out on night when we didn't feel like cooking a meal. We got veggie spring rolls (yum), hot and sour soup (yum), eggplant in szechuan sauce (okay), and General Tso's Tofu (alright). While not my favorite Chinese take out, we live close by and it gets the job done. We had leftovers for another meal or two, which was nice. read more

DO NOT EVER EAT HERE. I'd you do, you'll be upset. The only good thing about this place is that they were very fast. I received my food exactly 19 minutes after hanging up the phone. Make of that what you will. read more

Fu's Garden - With instant rice on the side - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

NO SERVICE!!! one waiter to serve the entire restaurant. Sundays is usually busy for them and they still refused to have another waiter working so they have just one waiter working. We waited and waited for our order to be taken. We noticed a man that had been waiting for longer than us had to basically go chase the waiter to order. We decided to leave, we told the cashier lady that we were leaving as it was ridiculous to have to wait so long for because they had no other staff she just she "yes". She understood what was going on but was pretending like she didn't know. They don't know customer service you're just another order number to them, no pride in quality or service. There are way too many options in Houston to be putting up with this. read more

My family and I like ordering takeout from here. They always pack the items away properly and do not forget any items. I always get the chicken and vegetables and my mom loves the moo shu pork with crepes. This is a good and convenient place to get takeout or dine in Chinese food for the area. All is reasonably priced as well. read more

Excellent food and service and atmosphere. We Will definitely return.

5 stars for the best local Chinese food restaurant around! I usually get crispy spring rolls, hot and sour soup and either a chicken or beef entree. I like the beef and broccoli and all the chicken entrees I've had are always nice and fresh. I also like the moo shu pork with the rice pancakes that come with it, the steamed vegetables are a nice healthy addition. -Sam read more

This place was pretty good and recommended by a coworker. Nothing spectacular. I had General Tsos Chicken which was ok, i would probably go back and try something else but overall a decent place. read more

Great food. Definitely one of the best Delivered quickly No complaints Will order again Recommend highly read more

Fu's is legendary in Tanglewood where I'm sure they have been located for a hundred years. Let me say the good first..it's not flavorless. It's good (not the best) but average-slightly above average food. They are quick. The bad is that it's 100% the most overpriced expensive Chinese Food I have personally ever seen or ordered. I darn near fell down when my cashier, for a take out order, said $18 for one General Tso chicken . I was thinking it came with Gold and Diamond rice but it did not! read more

Don't order from them if you want food in less than 2 hours. Food is generally good. But delivery time is insane. It's been almost 2 hours since we ordered on a Wednesday night (before 6pm) and we have called several times to be told "it was on its way" an hour ago". to "almost there" 30 minutes ago to "delivered" right now. That's funny- because we don't have any food!!!! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. read more

Hands down. This is the best Chinese food in all of Houston been going here for at least 30 years when they originally opened in West University. Now I have to drive all the way out to Southwest Houston Sam Felipe, to get this delicious Chinese food. Worth the drive. read more

We have been patronizing Fu's Garden for approximately 20+ years. Our children grew up eating here. The venue is better than average; the food is variable; and the service has become progressively worse to the point of being intolerable. Sunday night must be a high volume take-out night. The kitchen is VERY slow. The owners / managers are polite, but do not possess a service mentality. They must try to improve their attention to service. read more

These wise guys like to pull the old "fortune cookie with no fortune inside" trick on you. Flavorless.

The very best egg drop soup ever! Service is fast and nice. I always get the chicken wraps also good. My man loves the general chicken, we drive about 40 minutes twice a month to eat here read more

My favorite "American style" Chinese food! Where 2 can eat off the lunch special menu for $20 (get waters) and get full. Your choice of 3 soups, egg roll, and generous serving of main course for $8.95 each, and lunch special is 7 days a week!! Always hot, fresh, and delicious! Although I'm suspicious of their fortune cookies, as me and my dining partner received the exact same fortune...... read more

Fu's Garden - Hmmmm......coincidence or are the fortune cookies ALL the same???! I'll have to come back and try again! - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came here for a quick lunch with a friend. It was a bad recommendation...the food literally were drenched in oil. Ironically, tbey gave you complimentary oranges for dessert. I guess to make up for the oily entree. read more

Fast service and plentiful portion are words I use to describe Fu's Garden. I ordered the lunch portion of Sweet and Sour Chicken. I opted for hot and sour soup, and a mini egg roll and fried rice were included. I was stunned at how much chicken was given. Nice! The price was right and the taste was as expected. Good experience. read more

You would be a "FU" to eat at this place. There is a reason why there was only 4 people inside during lunch the food was absolutely horrible. I ordered beef that was supposed to be spicy(was not) I'm not sure if it was even beef. Please don't waist your time or money here! read more

This restaurant has the freshest food I've ever had at at a Chinese restaurant!! They have the BEST GENERAL TSO'S CHICKEN I've ever had ANYWHERE!! Definitely recommend to anyone who loves fine quality Chinese food ! A+++ read more

I got the shrimp fried rice $11. Eggs are burnt and food lacks flavor. Adding soy sauce will not help. Will not be returning. read more

Life is like a box of Chinese food take-out...you always know what you're gonna get. Now there's been plenty of 3* "Chinese" places that I've neglected to review (FYI: The "Chinese" designation henceforth in this article really means "Chinese American" which to me means "YUM."). But I'm more than willing to give the 4* exception for Fu's Garden. If you take a gander at my lists, you'll notice I have a downtown dining one, topped off by my favorite "Chinese" restaurant (http://www.yelp.com/list/downtown-dining-houston). Seeing as how I'm client-based and now never there, it's high time I start one for the Galleria area (where I'm currently taking up residence during normal working hours). While Fu's Garden won't shoot to the top of my list, it'll find its way on there, by nook or by crook. Now by virtue of me being "Chinese" (half-Taiwanese, half-Singaporean, 100% American, natch), I never find myself actively seeking out these types of places. However, it happens to be a favorite of my coworkers. I can see why: it's cheap (lunch specials range from $6-$8), it's fast, and it's pretty good. Their lunch specials, which are offered 7 days a week, feature a pretty solid variety of your traditional "Chinese" fare. Yes, you can get your favorite General here. Every dish I've tried is pretty good, the latest being the Sesame chicken. Each dish also comes with a choice of soup (their hot and sour is particularly delicious), fried rice (possibly bland but not the worst I've had), and a veggie egg roll (meh). The parking situation kind of stinks, but once you get in, the service is extra speedy. Drink order, food order, soup comes out, food comes out, check comes out, bill is settled. There's almost no wait time involved. They're also fan-friendly about splitting checks. Add in the solid food and decent prices, and this is one "Chinese" place I keep coming back to. And that's all I have to say about that. read more

Best Chinese food I had in a while, very impressed this will be my new Chinese restaurant, inside was pleasant I should of had that glass of wine while I waited for my food.. read more

I have a confession...for years, Chinese food was only eaten buffet style by me. After a few lunch dates at Fu's, I was turned-out!!!! Fu's is a sit down style restaurant that i love....Ok, I've heard a few negative stories by others but every time I've gone there my food is always fresh. I dare you to get the general tsao's chicken/ extra spicy.....or try their shrimp toast - a sinful shame! Yeah the dude that only do Chinese buffets everynonce in a while, found himself going to Fu's on a weekly basis. STAFF- the ladies that work at the front and seat you are very nice, especially after you become a regular...one time a co-worker and I was there and we had a waiter that was working so hard, he was sweating heavily....I visualized a bead of sweat dropping in my dr pepper or my won ton soup AND we were NOT having that. My coworker got up and mentioned it to one of the ladies at the front. We will just, the next time he came around to our table his face was dry....another thing I've noticed is that they have a low turn around rate. I've been seeing the same workers for years, which is also a good sign... read more

Still the best Chinese food in town. Everything is delicious, they're generous with the sauce, they have brown rice, literally nothing here isn't great. Portions are also very generous. Love fu's! read more

I have been coming to Fu's for over 20 years, and to me, it's one of the better Chinese restaurants in Houston. I go in person, as well as, use their delivery service when I feel like eating at home. Delivery service is fast compared to other restaurants which is another reason we order delivery. If it's lunch time, we go in person. For dinner time, it's always delivery. read more

I don't do much take out, but was really craving Chinese food. I never tried Fu's Garden so was a bit hesitant. Yelp did help me decide sine comments were positive. I ordered the Mongolian beef and pork dumplings. I was pleasantly surprised at the dumplings size and taste. The beef dish was tasty too. I will go back. read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for 3 years, why did I wait so long to try Fu's garden! This place averages 3.5 stars? That's an abomination! I've loved all 5 things I've tried, and their lo mein is the best in the galaxy! I'm not normally so emphatic, but I can't emphasize enough how fortunate we are to have them in the neighborhood. Best Chinese joint for many miles in any direction read more

Just had the worst excuse for Asian food ever. Part of our pickup order was Sweet & Sour chicken I was told the sweet & sour was fried chicken tenders with the sauce on the side. And, that's exactly what it was - fried tenders without one bit of seasoning; some kind of red runny sauce that really wasn't sweet and there was nothing sour! When I've ordered this dish at other restaurants, it has had pineapple chunks, onions, bell peppers, and a splash of vinegar or lemon for the sour. I poured the red runny sauce out and used ranch dressing to get a bit of flavor. Chick-Fila or McDonald's would have been way better and much cheaper than $14.00. The Kung Pao chicken was rather bland. We have eaten here occasionally or had meals delivered from Fu's Garden over the past 15 years. This was the first time in over a year we've had food from there and is now the absolute last. read more

the worst fried rice ever..its Minute Rice with one ingredient period...i could not eat of the bad Minute rice..no flavor at all..one waiter one busboy. They need to close up read more

Separately and quietly consistent. No flashiness no extras, just a great basic Chinese food restaurant. Great family owned operation. Facility is always clean, restrooms always immaculate. Sometimes there's a little bit of congestion in the parking lot, but that's to be expected. Similar to its neighbor café panda garden in pricing and menu. They do diet dishes well offering a great selection of steamed meats and vegetables. Their regular menu fair of popular American favorites such as general Tso chicken or exactly what you expect only little better. Skip the chains, skip the supposedly better priced options and go for quality here. read more

Fu's is one of my favorite spots near the galleria. Been in the same place for years. Always have fresh delicious food. Service is quick and friendly. Don't pass them up! read more

I really thought we had something Fu's I ate lunch here with a friend and had a great meal. Decided to throw this place into the weekly routine to really give it a go. Our relationship was like most good at first, but then we had some rough patches. Specifically when you decided to serve me noodles with absolutely no season or sauce on them at all and try to pass it off as a meal. When I called, heartbroken, you told me dismissively, "sorry, ask for soy sauce next time. Have a good weekend." I won't have a good weekend. And I don't think there will be a next time. read more

My coworkers said this is there go to Chinese joint for lunch. It's a madhouse in here for lunch hour coming from the galleria area. It's ok, just like any other Chinese lunch joint to me. I ordered the general tso. It was ok. I wished it was a little crispier & the sauce was ok as well. On a good note the chicken wasn't fully battered. You get more chicken than batter. The steam white rice looks edible but it had a funky smell to it. I rather eat uncle ben's microwaveable rice. $8.65 with tax. My general tso came with a soup-egg drop soup (decent) & a vegetable egg roll. read more

We have been coming here for years. Recently we went to eat and the owner told us we could nit order hot water. She told us that because we don't buy there tea for $2 and she pays $40000 in rent a month that she would not serve us water because we beibg our own tea bags in. She choose to lose a $70 sale for a $2 yew bag. They know us by name and this is how they choose to treat a repeat customer. We will never step foot in this restaurant again because if the treatment we received. read more

I actually made an account just so I can write this review. I love Chinese food. I love all kinds of food. This place is clearly NOT making good food. I went by wondering if they were open. I walked inside and the place was dark and completely empty. I spotted a lady eating her lunch and it turned out to be the hostess. I asked if they were open and she did nothing but point me to my seat. I felt like I was on an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. The food was terrible, burnt, and tasted old. The minute I finished the food, it didn't agree with me. It was terrible and I wish I paid attention to the signs and run away. I recommend, running away. read more

I've been getting takeout from this restaurant for a few years now. Mainly when I'm at work bc they deliver there but sometimes I go by and get it and bring it home. Their food is REALLY GOOD. I definitely recommend the lettuce wraps, beef and broccoli and general tso chicken. Unfortunately their prices have had to go up the last couple years. I understand but I might just have to get it less often. Food is 5 star though!! read more

Ordered on Christmas Day at 7 pm for carry out. Food was ready at 9 pm. Only one person was working the counter and there was some confusion about pick-up procedures due to three different identification numbers marking these orders (the cashier was calling out phone numbers but there were also online order numbers and ticket numbers--indeed, even after paying online it was necessary to obtain a paper ticket before the meal would be sent to the kitchen.) However, I was impressed by the cashier's stoicism. She was clearly overwhelmed but not unprofessional. The food was good--pork fried rice was not over-salted, which I appreciated. One soup was missing from my order, but considering the chaos this didn't seem worth mentioning. read more
