    Well, it was time for my visit to get Chinese food. Another great experience at Hunan lion. Always make everything just the way I want it. Very friendly people on top of that.

    Wife and I are always on the lookout for a good Chinese restaurant. This week we tried Hunan Lyon. Very attractive interior well above the standard Chinese restaurant. We were promptly seated and given a menu. We selected the two of the lunch specials for $13 each. I ordered pepper steak while the wife ordered chicken with snow peas. Wife had the corn egg soup, which was delicious and very hot. I opted for the wonton soup which arrived cold. I asked them to exchange it for the corn egg soup which they did. The egg rolls were piping hot and delicious. My prepper steak was not as tender as other Chinese restaurants but good. Wife enjoyed her chicken with snow peas. We're still looking for a Chinese restaurant.

    Very almost americanized style chinese restaurant. But even your asian parents will be impressed. The food was good and staff was great. The interior is very decorated all the way up to the ceiling. Warning: the menu is all in english

    Tried this place based on a recommendation. Ambiance is great , loved the paintings and the decor(missed to take more pics) . Impressive service here. Marie was very friendly and always taking requests with a smile. Even though she was the only one serving the entire section, she was patient and ensuring by checking frequently if we needed anything . Food is great and portion sizes are huge. Szechuan meal was not at all spicy(unexpectedly), but all the items were delicious. Service time was quick for the appetizers but meal itself took more than 20 mins to arrive. As another review stated already , it's not fast food and it took its own sweet time to arrive - but felt really hot and fresh !

    Hunan Lion is a nice, solid Chinese spot in Round Rock. The food was good and the atmosphere had a cool, relaxed vibe. Nothing mind-blowing, but definitely a reliable go-to when you're craving Chinese.

The restaurant itself has a really cool atmosphere, and it's always clean and inviting. Every employee I've interacted with has been genuinely friendly and welcoming, which makes me want to keep coming back. If you're looking for great ramen, especially if you're vegetarian, I definitely recommend giving this place a try.

    Ramen Tatsu-ya Round Rock is the real deal! Just wrapped up…read moreanother great visit to the Round Rock location (960 North Mays) and had to bump this up in my book. Even with a heat index of 108°, I still walked in for their hot, succulent bone broth ramen...that's how good it is. The "LIVE NOODS" neon sign above the open kitchen is a perfect touch, you can watch the team pulling fresh noodles and building bowls right in front of you. It gives the place that energetic, authentic feel while keeping everything clean and modern. Wooden counters, red accent lighting, QR code ordering, and those sturdy stools make it comfortable for a quick solo meal or hanging with friends/family. Shout-out to Ana -- she was the absolute guide to deliciousness! She took my order with a smile and gave spot-on recommendations that led me straight to the good stuff. Service like that makes all the difference. I went with the Texasy Tonk (deep 60hr+ tonkotsu broth loaded with smoked brisket, smoked jalapeños, takana mustard greens, ajitama egg, and thunder oil) rich, savory, perfectly balanced heat, great chew on the noodles, and melt-in-your-mouth brisket. For the side I grabbed the Hot Pocketz from the Summer Combo (crispy birria-style brisket pockets with Oaxaca/Monterey Jack blend and birria dip). They were straight fire...crunchy exterior, gooey cheesy interior, spicy kick, and that dipping sauce took them over the top. Pro tip: Pour the remaining au jus from the Hot Pocketz into your Texasy Tonk broth at the end, it takes the flavor to another level! Cold beer + sake chaser rounded it out perfectly. Pro tip for first-timers: If you're new here, stick to the OG classics on the menu (like the straight Tonkotsu or Miso) -- they're rock solid. Once you're hooked, branch out to the fun Texas twists. Fast counter service, generous portions, and solid value (especially with the Summer Combo). Whether you're coming from Austin or just passing through Round Rock, this spot is worth the stop.

You order at the counter and they deliver the food table side. No frills on the service, which is why it's affordable. We ordered: pork XLB, pan fried pork and shrimp dumplings, scallion pancakes, steamed pork buns, and suan tsai spicy beef noodles. The suan tsai spicy beef noodles with pickled greens stole the show. WOW. Perfect amount of heat in a flavorful broth. The pickled greens really balanced out the heat in the perfect way. I could eat this every day and be happy. Noodles were thick and perfectly cooked. I was inhaling the soup and scallion pancakes (also incredible) and left the XLB sitting too long. By the time I got to them, the slightly thicker wrapping had absorbed all the soup. Still good flavor though! The pan fried dumplings were also good, but just overshadowed by the soup in my opinion. I didn't try the steamed buns (not typically my jam), and my husband said the bun itself was great, but the meat needed some flavor. Nothing to photograph as we ate almost everything! I'll be dreaming about the pickled soup tonight as I roll into bed.

And as an appetizer at that lol . But way to prove me wrong because these were nice and hearty. The wrapper itself was a bit thicker than others I've tried and the protein inside was nice and hearty.
