    Although I do think Hibachi has one of the better chinese buffets, the margin isn't by a lot. My favorite is the Hibachi station where you're able to choose from the assortment of items for them to cook for you! The servers are amazing and sweet and everything is usually clean. However, the quality got worse over the years and the sushi has a weird and fishy aroma to it. Most of the options are replaced with fried food. It's better than others though. Overall, 6/10.

    Updated prices as of 6/2/25.

    Typical Chinese buffet food, but they also have some dim sum dishes, sushi/ sashimi, and of course a hibachi grill. The food is pretty consistently good and flavorful. Some of the better crawfish compared to other buffets. They are constantly bringing out fresh food and keeping the trays filled, even towards the end of the night vs other buffets that completely shut down and leave your options limited if you come in late. They do free birthdays (must be on the actual day and show id). Also note that they don't let you pay with a gift card if you are claiming a free birthday meal.

    $20/adult and only 10/ seniors 60+. Crazy good value Food: [what they have, my thoughts, my favorites at the end] Fried food - french fries, popcorn shrimp, crab rangoons, chicken wing, fried doughnut, etc. [I liked their crab rangoon and popcorn shrimp! didnt try the rest] Soup - egg drop, hot and sour, porridge, and miso soup [all were good! i especially enjoyed the porridge, it had accents of ginger. very warming and soothing] Sushi - sashimi, tuna/spicy tuna roll, chef cooked rolls, salmon roll, eel avocado roll, etc. [decent sushi surprisingly] For dinner they even have crawfish that people empty in a few minutes. They even wait by the station till the staff bring out a new batch. The crab is good, seasoned, piping hot, and yummy. My favorites: Crab bake, general tso chicken, banana pudding, pork bun, hibachi, tom yum soup, cheese mussels! Service: It's a buffet so very fast of course. they clean your table and plates up fast very attentive staff. Ambiance: Very very busy, bustling? lively with large families! It's a buffet.

    The amount of money we payed was not worth the quality of the food.

    I was in this side of town today, so i stopped by this place again for lunch. Same as last time i visited this place, good food, nice service. I am glad all the construction that was going on around this location, has been completed and there isn't any more going on for now, making access and egress a lot easier. Still haven't gotten around to trying the hibachi or pho that they serve, however I did find the hidden corner, where they keep and serve the ice cream cups, I didn't know about them last time. Keep up the good food, and good service. See you next time.

    2024October. Price is $21 per adult for dinner and on weekends. There's some dim sum items like chicken feet and steamed buns. Sushi and sashimi items are available- quality is average. Hibachi grill is nice option for some fresh stir fry but would stay away from beef/steaks as the cuts are tough. Rest of the items are typical Chinese buffet options, along with Cajun seasoned crawfish. For birthday celebrations, they bring a lotus flower cute candle that opens.

    This is one of the better Chinese Buffets in Houston. We were quite pleased with the variety. There's the usual Chinese food, but there's also a Hibachi grill and sushi/sashimi. There's even Dim Sum. Here's your chance to try Chicken Feet! Prices are very reasonable at $13.49, especially for weekday lunches. There were a lot of people around Friday lunchtime. Service and ambiance is quite typical for this type of place. The staff was quite prompt in removing the empty plates once we're done. It's even open for Christmas if you're looking for a feast on a day where most restaurants are closed.

    As a fan of buffets in my prime eating/fattening days, I frequented many across the Houston area and judged it based on its selections, quality, and value. This was a very popular spot and remains one of the better selections in the area. Variety is the spice of life, as they say, and Hibachi not only offers the standard Mongolian grill option but a full sushi bar with Sashimi (can be hit or miss and definitely consume at your peril), a dim sum area with chicken feet/ribs/dumplings (not bad actually), and full self-served ice cream bar (this was better pre-pandemic as the quality of the ice-cream has dropped as they switch to individual cups). There are also some expensive options like crab legs, steak, fish, and the underrated crawfish in my opinion. Overall I would rate it fairly well based on the selections and value. (even better if you're looking to bulk up and prefers Quantity over quality) There have been several price increases due to inflation over the years but for $17.99 (weeknights) and $18.99 (weekends) at the time of this review, it's still not a bad price for a buffet of this caliber.

    An average Asian buffet. There is a jalapeño favor throughout some of the Chinese dishes that shouldn't be there. The made-to-order grill is a good stir-fry. The sashimi is fresh. The ice cream is nice as its individual containers of chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. The bathrooms were clean too. The char su baos were dry. Some flavors in the dishes aren't fully developed. The parking lot is large so it should be easy to find parking. The servers were quick at clearing the table. The hibachi chefs were good.

    Full 4 score. was yummy grilled noodles with shrimp and other fixings at live Grill. There was unlimited crawfish and clams and we enjoyed the flavored crap as well. My parents are regulars to this place for years and come w their friends

    Food is pretty good depending on what you get, some of the food was not very warm, they do have a big selection of food however

    Do they offer free meal for the person on his/her birthday?

    Yes. Must show ID. Only valid on actual birthday and can't pay with gift card for the rest of the party.

    Hi, does anyone know if this place is open for dine in? I tried calling but I keep getting sent to voicemail.

    They are open for dine-in. The buffet is still a bit normal but w/ optional gloves and sanitizer provided, masks are required when getting food, and social distancing is enforced by reducing the number of tables, especially in the hibachi line.

    What's day you open again?

    Everyday

    5 Stars - Authentic Szechuan that absolutely nails the classics…read more During our short trip to Houston, as a custom, we were determined to find real Szechuan food, and luckily we found Hu's Kitchen. The location is a bit unassuming, and parking is definitely tough (the spaces are very shallow), but the second we walked through the doors and smelled the Szechuan peppercorns, I knew we were in exactly the right place. I generally judge a Szechuan restaurant by their 夫妻肺片 (Fuqi Feipian)--which they cleverly name "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" on the menu. They completely nailed it. The beef, tripe, and tendon were incredibly cohesive together, yet you could tell each component was prepared and marinated in a slightly different way to perfectly highlight its specific texture. The chili oil was right on the spot. We went through a massive bowl of rice just eating this dish alone. Honestly, if I weren't feeding a family of four, I could have just ordered that and been perfectly happy. While the Fuqi Feipian proves their skill with dry dishes, the 水煮魚片 (Fish in Szechuan Hot Chili Oil) proves their skill with wet ones. It's another must-order. The execution was flawless--we didn't just finish the tender fish chunks, we ate every last piece of cabbage soaked in that incredible chili broth. For my two daughters who can't handle the heat, we ordered the fried rice, garlic pork ribs with onion, and the 紅燒獅子頭 (Giant Meatball with Cabbage). The giant meatball was spectacular. The kids completely devoured it on their own, but I managed to steal a bite, and it instantly brought back childhood memories of exactly how this dish is supposed to taste. We also had the Dan Dan Noodles, which were great and rounded out the meal perfectly. I loved all of the dishes we tried. Should we ever find ourselves in Houston again, we will absolutely be revisiting this hidden gem.

    My mom wanted steamed fish with ginger, scallions, and that light sweet soy sauce. Hu's Cooking…read moredelivered! When we ordered, they mentioned it'll take about 20 mins but it came out in 10. No complaints here since we were starving from an 8 hour road trip. The Dan Dan Noodles...I had high expectations but sadly this dish fell short. I recommend Hu's Cooking to use a bigger bowl and more sauce because it was difficult to mix the noodles and the sauce wasn't...saucing, unfortunately. I wish there was more flavor in this dish. The Scallion Pancake was super over-fried and oily. See image in my review. The outer parts of the pancake were fried to a crisp and only a small circumference in the center stayed chewy. I know Chinese tends to be oily but this pancake soaked up way too much oil. Half a Peking duck: super great price for so much meat. The difficulty when eating this dish is gnawing the meat off the sharp bones of the duck. Mapo Tofu with white rice: pretty easy staple, no complaints here. Dinner on a Saturday was packed but we got seated quickly and food arrived fast.

From the moment the duck arrives at your table, you know you're in for something special. The skin is perfectly lacquered--beautifully crisp with an irresistible golden sheen--while the meat underneath is unbelievably tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Every bite is a perfect balance of crispy skin, succulent duck, fresh cucumbers, scallions, hoisin sauce, and warm pancakes. It's not just dinner... it's an experience. What I love most is the consistency. Every single visit, the quality is exceptional. The presentation is elegant, the flavors are authentic, and the attention to detail is second to none. You can truly tell that the chefs take immense pride in their craft. The service is always warm, attentive, and welcoming, making every meal feel like a special occasion. Whether it's a date night, celebrating with friends, or simply satisfying a craving, Bamboo House never disappoints. 5/5 Stars isn't enough. If I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. If you're anywhere near Houston and have never experienced their Peking Duck, you're missing one of the finest culinary experiences the city has to offer. It has become my personal gold standard, and after countless meals around the world, nothing has topped it. Thank you, Bamboo House, for continuing to serve what I genuinely believe is the best Peking Duck I've ever had. I'll keep coming back--and bringing everyone I know with me!

The duck is roasted for hours, so the skin comes out nice and crispy without being too greasy. I also like that the remaining duck is made into a soup afterward. It's simple, hearty, and especially good on a colder day. I've tried several other dishes here, and they've all been solid and remind me of the Chinese food I grew up eating. The servers have always been attentive and friendly, and the restaurant is spacious, so it's a good spot for family dinners or larger groups.

Perfectly salty and good amount of crunch still left. The flavors they used are just perfect. Colorful Beef 4/5- The texture of the beef was so tender and not chewy at all like other places. The flavor was bright and the bell peppers were cooked through well. The issue I had with this dish was the sichuan peppercorns. I was just eating and not really looking at it super closely so I got a mouth full of these peppercorns and wow it was actually horrible. Just beware because the texture of these things are god awful and I think that they should be taken out like how a bay leaf is removed before serving. It was just really intense and it almost ruined the dish for me honestly. Other than that a great dish. My mouth was so numb but worth it. Dandan noodles 2/5- This was my first time trying this dish anywhere and I did not really enjoy it at all. The sesame flavor was really strong and it wasn't really salted at all. Very strange flavor. I will not order this again, however I do believe that the execution on this dish is great. There was a lot of sauce and the noodles were cooked well. I just really wish I liked the flavor of this dish and that's a personal problem. This dish also made my mouth numb but the flavor did not make it worth it. I wanted to like these so badly but I just couldn't do it. I will be back!
