    Wonton Soup
    David M.

    I've had a cold all week and needed their wonton soup. I love getting the wonton soup every time I have a sore throat. It's just what the doctor ordered. It is very soothing on the throat and is always served piping hot. There's something about this soup that makes me feel better after eating it. Definitely recommend it when you're under the weather or even just in the mood for soup. Worth mentioning that with the large soup you get 8 wontons in it. Couldn't resist a side of egg roll so had that with dinner too - decent egg roll.

    My deceased grandfather's favorite takeout. I love to go now and then for old times sake, bland but filling. Tasty if you like "American Chinese food" This is old school takeout Chinese. The stuff American servicemen back from the war made a staple for so many families from the 50s through the 80s. I'm nearly 60 and I went there with my grandfather as a child. The guy who founded it still ran it then. The food is hot and filling and the portions are big! Which is nice. The only drawbacks are NO CREDIT CARDS or electronic payment of any kind, they do take checks, but when is the last time you saw a checkbook? The other is they need an option for some more seasoning. They assume like most places that Minnesotan "Chow Mein" customers like traditional Midwestern blandness. I know they can make spicier food, but I don't know how to ask. They don't speak much English, and I'd like to find a way to say "Its wonderful, but please more seasoning in the chow mein"

    Classic Chinese-American food done well! Having grown up in a family with similar restaurants, it's always fun to order from places such as Huie's to bring back memories of my youth. Their food is great, portions are generous and prices are very reasonable! All of the dishes we ordered were wonderful, egg rolls and wings were crispy, broccoli was still vibrant and crunchy and the fried rice had that smoky aroma of the wok. Definitely going back!

    Whenever I want quick Chinese food, this is nice option because it's super close to our house and doesn't take long to get to. We love the combination meals because it gives us a little taste of what they have to offer on the menu such as eggrolls, fried rice and an entree for a reasonable price! We've ordered here twice during the pandemic. They don't deliver but since we are super close it didn't matter. This is by the far the best chinese fried rice from all the nearby Chinese places we've ordered from before. The rice is cooked thoroughly and a good mixture of veggies and meat. I feel the sauce could be a little lighter or something because afterwards you'll need to quench your thirst. It doesn't taste salty until you've devour the whole meal then it catches up to you. The lo mein has lots of veggies and meat as well. I think they could go lighter on the sauce for this one too. I guess when there's too much sauce, the food looks so dark but flavor is still good. We were so hungry so I had forgotten to snap the before and after pictures. So I only have the one picture of the leftovers

    L14:Sesame chicken, chicken fried rice and egg foo young
    Heather S.

    It was okay. I wasn't sure what to expect; I've never ordered from this particular place before, but since Cleveland Wok closed I've been having a heck of a time trying to find a good Chinese place that isn't too expensive. People seem to like Huie's so I checked it out today. I got a lunch combo: Sesame Chicken and egg foo young. The sesame chicken suspiciously seemed like the frozen nugs that Wong's uses and they were a little dry, soggy. The sauce was pretty bland. The fried rice was good, although I would prefer a white rice option for next time. The egg foo young was pretty bland as well. This place may have been here for so long because of the blandness. I should give it another try; the price is good! Let me know what you guys think of this place and what I should order :)

In…read morere-reading my reviews, I stand by everything I've said about the excellent consistent quality of the food, the service, and how much I enjoy coming to this restaurant. I truly hope they are around longer than I am. I would hate to find out this was one of the choices no longer available to us. Please read my previous reviews for a more inclusive view; this review focuses only on their lobster. I had previously mentioned that they prices of their lobsters (I love the version with black bean sauce) have gone up tremendously. While true, there seems to have been a subtle change in their pricing strategy. Previously (as of before the pandemic), the lobster was priced by the pound, which is the conventional way of doing it. However, they seem to have two lobster prices. The first one is called "Big Lobster" and they say it's between 2 and 2 and half pounds per lobster. The price of that (as of this review) is $56 dollars, or $28 per pound. That's not really a bad price at all. It's expensive, but reasonable. The other lobster is called "Live Lobster" and is priced $10 less at $46. So the real question is how much does this second version weigh? I ordered the Big Lobster, but they said they were out of it. I asked the weight of the "Live Lobster" but I didn't really get a straight answer, but he seemed to say "about two pounds" which doesn't really make sense because that's the price of the larger, more expensive lobster. But I decided to go for it anyway. As I stated in my last review, I'm guessing this lobster is at least two pounds, based on many years of eating lobster. For this review, I had ChatGPT translate the the Chinese on the menu, thinking it was secret code for "if you can read Chinese, save ten dollars by ordering this version" but AI says the Chinese means "lobster" so if you spoke Chinese, you'd still be mystified. So my recommendation is order the version that is ten dollars cheaper and you may (or may not) be paying $23 a pound. Price aside, I love this version of lobster and it is certainly a better deal than what you would pay at an American style seafood or steak restaurant in the Twin Cities.

(Loved chatting with her, miss her.) Several times I saw whole HUGE beautifully roasted and decorated entire pigs sold out the door for private parties! EVERYONE came back then from EVERYWHERE! She was " famous" state wide for having the BEST DUCK. She had delicious big bowls of noodle duck soup too! Her roast duck and roast or barbecued pork were New York City Chinatown quality!!!!! ( I grew up & worked in NewYork for 40 years) Sadly she passed away and about 5 years ago I slowly saw the quality portion size cooking process and especially taste/flavor in the seasoning and marinating almost disappear. I wrote about this on my last trip from Florida where I moved 5 years ago. We permanently moved back to MN 1/26 and just returned to House of Wu today. OUTSTANDING.... Perfect Juicy. Just like in her original old days! Yay! Finally. Today the dining room was filled with 10 older and a few younger family and staff- - an EXCELLENT sign that her original recipes and wonderful care and quality of preparation HAVE RETURNED. Thank you. Thank you family.
