    Chicken broccoli
    Jeff N.

    Not much curb appeal as the strip center is a little old and dingy looking and in need of a makeover to have a nice new look. You have to enter in main entrance as the only other entrance is off a merge lane that leads to 45 south but only from merge lane..and the merge lane is currently under construction. Plenty of parking and seating. When you walk in place does look modern and clean and nice... Greeted right away and seated..drink orders taken right way. Food arrived within 5-7 mins after ordering. I ordered chicken broccoli and won ton soup and sweet tea and my co worker ordered sesame chicken. Everything was hot and fresh and tasted good. Service was good also, will be back for sure.

    Crispy scallion pancakes

    I've always seen this advertised in Spring and passed by it for work, but my PT coworker suggested we go out to lunch. I was craving Chinese food, so she recommended it. Their lunch specials are $7.95. They don't charge extra for non-white rice options. Rare. They have white, brown, and fried rice. The meal also comes with a vegetable or pork egg roll. I had the General Tso's chicken. I asked for fried rice, but they gave me brown rice, possibly by accident since my coworker ordered it with her meal. I didn't complain and ate the brown rice. Everything tasted great. Large portions. I had leftovers. I had to try their scallion pancake since that's my favorite. It wasn't as scallion-y, and it was pretty oily. There are a bit of scallions inside, too, but not much. The concept was different, which the waitress explained. You put a smear of hoisin sauce and sliced scallions on top, then roll it. I'm used to dipping it in soy sauce, but the hoisin flavor was good! The place was empty during weekend lunch, but they were preparing takeout orders. I'd order or eat here again.

    Came here with some of my family from dinner and some items were really good while others were a little bit off. Additionally, we had two servers, one who was very nice and the other would yell as she came to the table. I'm not sure if she just wanted to be sure we heard her but it was a little off putting. I ordered the ramen and a couple pieces of sushi. The rame was decent expect for the noodles. They were way overcooked and just mushy. The raw sushi I got was a little fishy tasting which made me glad I also got eel. The whole table kinda felt the same about their meals parts of it was really good but then there was something a little off.

    The food average is reasonably priced. The fare is standard Asain comfort food. The service is spotty at best. Located on a strip mall .ample parking.

    This place is a hidden gem!!!! I am so glad I drove past. I've been here for almost a year and have yet to find decent sushi in the immediate area. The sushi was fantastic, fresh tasting and the sushi rice was perfection. I did a pick up order but the interior is very inviting at first glance and the decor is simple and tasteful. Looking forward to going back today to sit and experience the service! Edit : Okay finally got to dine in. The bang bang shrimp is delicious!!! Breaded and crispy! And I told them to surprise me with a roll with Eel in it because it's my absolute fav and they came back with this work of actual art! I couldn't eat it because my dumb self forgot to add that whatever it is couldn't have cheese in it but holy sh*t it smelled DIVINE. The staff was cracking me up the whole time. I think it's a mother and son? Or maybe an aunt and nephew hahaha he was a young man dragging his feet around the place but he was SO sweet and attentive. Sushi rice was perfect for the second time!

    Golden bowl sizzling with fried rice

    This place is the best Asian cuisine I've had in town. The service was great, they were very attentive and nice. I highly recommend this place! It's the best food I've had in a while. I got the golden bowl sizzling with fried rice and it was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend got the spicy Tonkotsu ramen and the broth was amazing. They also have the best Lo mein beef. Again highly recommend! Will definitely go back again!

    i love getting the ramen it's very very yummy. the host/server is so friendly and enthusiastic. the setting is very nice it's giving modern but home made

    Food is delicious and fresh! They have the best bang bang shrimp, wonton soup & beef/broccoli!

    Everytime I come here I enjoy great meals for a good price and great service. They always refill my water pretty fast when I'm done with it and I leave this place with a bigger stomach cause of how good the food is.

    Salt and pepper jumbo shrimp w/snow peas
    Mikka H.

    Tried this place out 2 days ago, staff was friendly and attentive. Salt and pepper steamed jumbo shrimp w/ snow peas $12.50 Pepper tuna sushi 2 pc 2.50 Smoked salmon sashimi 3 pc $7.50 Smoked salmon sushi 2 pc 2.50 Sweet shrimp sushi 2 pc $8.00 (4.00 each) My aunt enjoyed her shrimp plate. And the sushi was good. Wasn't a fan of sweet shrimp, this was my first time trying it. They only had lunch specials on sushi. I wish they had lunch specials on the other dishes as well. But it was still good. Will be back but I'll probably have to pay next time. It was a bit pricey for two. $50 including tip.

We spent about $60, and unfortunately... this was one of the most disappointing meals we've had in a while. The food tasted old across the board. The egg rolls were burnt, the sweet and sour chicken was dry and flavorless, and the General Tso's chicken was soggy and overly sweet. The only things even remotely edible were the lo mein and fried rice. To make things worse, the service didn't match the price point. For a $60 order, we were given just four soy sauce packets, no plasticware, and no fortune cookies. When I asked for more soy sauce, sriracha, and duck sauce, I was initially given barely anything had to ask again and explain I had a full meal to feed. They eventually brought more, but still no fortune cookies. My husband and I eat out often because of our schedules, and we don't mind spending money on good food but this was not it. I had really high hopes because it's hard to find solid Chinese food in the Spring area, and I was hoping this could become a go-to spot. Unfortunately, it won't be. If I weren't so tired, I would've called back to complain but I just didn't have the energy. Chalking this one up as a loss and doing better next time. Would not return and I wouldn't trust the good reviews either. ‼‼

We also had the Chana Masala, this is the best Chana I've tried, so garlicky, so good, the chickpeas had the perfect texture as well, again mild on the spiciness, just great. We also had Chicken Szechuan chaomein, great noodles, the Szechuan flavor on this dish was just spot on. I'm so happy we came to try this place, I can confidently say and confirm this is one of the best places to eat in Houston. I can't recommend just one dish, but don't skip the Chana Masala.

I've done Peking…read moreCuisine for years and shifted to Arco for my duck cravings, but if you're willing to drive out to Humble (pretty much anytime you're in the IAH area), you gotta check out Bamboo House for the best Peking duck. And their other menu items are fire as well! We went on a Sunday late evening. We had a 9 pm airport pickup at IAH so it was a perfect opportunity to grab a spectacular dinner and make the 30+ minute drive out to IAH totally worth it. Parking lot wasn't too full so that wasn't an issue. While the neighborhood ain't River Oaks luxury, it ain't too scary either. We kept it simple - ordered a whole duck and Bamboo House Special Noodle with Beef. This place ain't cheap but the food is worth every penny. It was very busy that evening so it's not a well-kept secret but also proves that eventually, Houstonians will figure out where the good food is. The duck was near perfect. They serve the duck with the pancakes (as opposed to the buns like at Arco) which is my preference. The soup that comes with it was also extremely flavorful. And the house special noodles with beef - oh my. I swear it's just one really long noodle so you may be frustrated trying to divvy up the family style bowl, but the labor is worth it. So good... Can't wait for my next airport run so I can sneak in a lunch or dinner at this place. So many other menu items I want to try!

I had previously visited the now closed Bamboo House on Westheimer and I remember being impressed by the food. I had to make an airport run and decided that it would be perfect timing to stop by this location. I highly recommend ordering the duck ahead of time, but we were lucky enough to snag one of the last ducks when we arrived around 7 pm on a Sunday evening. The waitress was super friendly and upbeat and the restaurant is older but well maintained. You can see where the food is being prepared/cooked and you can see ducks being cooked/warmed behind a glass window. The duck was absolutely spectacular with the perfect seasoned and tender meat accompanied by well rendered crispy skin. I love how the pancakes are paper thin and pair well with the scrumptious duck and other toppings. They also provide sugar and plum sauce as additional toppings which I thought was interesting but not my cup of tea. The duck soup was extremely flavorful and full bodied and went well with the duck. The noodles were also amazing with likely hand pulled noodles served with an abundance of tender beef and vegetables with a little Sichuan kick. I was intrigued by a strawberry chicken dish that I saw on the menu and I plan to try it the time. My diagnosis: hands down the best Peking duck in the greater Houston area!

In a place like Houston, where you can get authentic Vietnamese food, this can be a luck draw if the fusion pays off. However, when I tried the food, it was a very flavorful and worth every cent I spent. Everything was very tasty. The wings were flavorful and crisp. It had a combination of crispy skin seasoned with a rich sauce. The meat was also moist. For a party of two, it was also very shareable because they gave six pieces -both drums and wings. I will say that you really gotta to get in there get your hands and face dirty though! (They did provide a hand wipe!) For the main dishes, the won tonic soup was very flavorful with sweet-and-sour elements with egg noodles that soaked up all this good flavor. The wontons inside were very standard. And the onion was added to provide some balance. Everything was very hardy and filling. My friend had gotten the vermicelli. Which came with crunchy egg rolls, shredded veggies, noodles, and shrimp topped with a fish sauce. It felt very light and refreshing with a balance of textures and savory elements'. Highly recommend as the number one and two selling dishes - it would just depend on if you're in a soup or dry noodle sort of mood. Service was overall fast and friendly. You have to pay by going to the counter. We had a newer waiter though, and it took him a long time to get our orders correctly and he had to get some help.
