We went in for lunch last week. The place was empty except for two other groups. Maybe we should have gone during dinner time, as I had high hopes for this establishment from all the reviews on here. We had just finished a killer workout and were looking forward to getting some chicken and veggies that we didn't have to make ourselves. Good- It's close to my home, conveniently located in the Academy and Big Lots parking lot, right off of Loop 336 in Conroe. The menu selection is large and they have well priced lunch options. We tried two of their lunch specials. I had the Triple Delight shrimp, chicken, and beef, except I had them hold the beef and add extra chicken. My husband had the Kung Po Chicken. Sadly, mine arrived and the flavor was bland, the rice wasn't fresh, but I will say the veggies were perfectly cooked. I needed the sauce to be banging and it certainly was NOT! My husband wasn't impressed with his dish either. He said it was edible, but not something he would come running back for again. We tried both of their soups and they were decent. Nothing to write home about. The spring rolls that came with were the best part of our meal. They were crispy, delish, and the veggies were crunchy on the inside, just how I like them. Bad- Service was very lack luster. Maybe it's because we were one of the few patrons. I would think it would be the other way around, but I had to get my own doggie bags and hot sauce because no one came back to check on us the entire meal. Ugly- Nothing to report just wished my experience had been better as we don't currently have a "go to" Chinese restaurant. read more

Hunan Village - Chinese Near Me - Conroe, Texas

I am surprised this restaurant doesn't show a better rating. The food we had--chicken and vegetables and lemon chicken--was probably the best we've ever had and, believe me, we have visited a vast number of Asian restaurants. We are sorry we waited so long to try this place. The service was excellent in every regard. The preparation of the chicken and vegetable dish was sheer perfection; when the chicken is properly velveted and the vegetables perfectly crisp-tender, you know that the cooks know what they're doing. The lemon chicken was accompanied by a large bowl of fresh lemon sauce, just in case you might want some extra; we did, and it was delicious and appreciated. The restaurant has been around for quite a while (now I know why), and it could use a little sprucing up; for example, the carpet is well-traveled and needs some attention. That doesn't detract from the food, however; we can't wait to go back. read more

My husband ordered the curry shrimp. He likes spicy food, however, it was do spicy, he broke out in bumps on the inside of his mouth. I ordered the General tso and it was pretty spicy. I drank 3 glasses of tea. read more

Very good ! We've been passing this place for 10 years and were always saying we needed to try it out. Glad we finally did. read more

See all

I have been going here for about 4-5 years. Tonight I ordered lettuce wrap & edamame that I always get and lately this place has been awful. Safe to say I will not return. Not sure if it different cooks, management or owners but the food was literally flavorless not seasonings and waste of $. read more

Decided to take my daughter for a lunch date here and it did not disappoint. Ordered the crab puffs and she got the hot & sour soup and I got the wonton. I liked that the broth was clear in the wonton. So many places now it is totally yellow and grosses me out. The crab puffs were great and the sweet and sour sauce wasn't overpowering. She wasn't a fan of the soup but ate most of it. It was nicer than many of the local spots and she enjoyed that. The atmosphere was quiet and we enjoyed great service. She ordered the mongolian beef and I got beef and broccoli. We could have shared one! It was too big for the both of us. We didn't care for the egg rolls. The crunch was too thin. We will definitely be back! read more

I've been turned off by China Delight so I finally tried Hunan Village. It's worth the extra few bucks for the quality. The Hot & Sour Soup was actually so good I burned my mouth chugging it down. Egg/Spring Rolls were terrible. Basically wrapped and fried cabbage, no pork or seasoning. Crab puffs had a nice sweet cream cheese filling. Kung Po (Pao) Beef was tasty and filled with plenty of meat. They just didn't tenderize it enough for me personally. And what's with restaurants not throwing the peanuts in the wok and stir-frying with the meal??? Instead, just put on top after the Kung Pao is plated. Looks and tastes cheap & lazy. I'll try some more and report back. Best Chinese food in Conroe by far. The rest are garbage! Great food and quality overall, but so overpriced! read more

Food was not terrible. Could not for the life of me recommend thier hot and sour soup it was the worste ive ever had. Ordered family meal for two on deliverky. Garlic chicken needs ti be labeled spicy online. Really hot garlic oil but i like spicy so tasted great. Beef and brocolli was under seasoned and just bland. Fried rice was great. If food wasnt okay id give them one star. Delivery guy handed me oozing brown bag. Oil and sauce was covering EVERYTHING in the bad. Had to lay towels down on table to wipe off containers before plating our food. Really really sloppy. Even spoke to manager about how messy and wet everything was. I can say the delivery maybe was a one off but food wasnt that great for $30 wouldnt go back to try again read more

Very tasty and delicious. Waiter was very pleasant. Ambiance is very nice and clean feeling. Will be our new go -to place. Anxious to go back and try a different dish. Was a little warm inside but there are a lot of windows. Next time I will be prepared. Most places are so cold your food cools off too fast. read more

My family has eaten at Hunan Village for years and always were satisfied. But over four visits in the last year the food has been disappointing. Items ordered and paid for that didn't show up and meats made of gristle and blobs of breading. Some pieces of our last Sweet and Sour Supreme were NOTHING but blobs of breading. It feels like a place where quality control has fallen to the wayside. read more

After 25 years, this restaurant has been sold to new owner and boy has it changed. We first walked in and noticed a bunch of new people at the front of the house. Thankfully, Ulysses, a wonderful professional waiter, was still working here. He was the highlight of our meal. Portions are smaller, food is greasier, taste is mediocre and quite frankly, you notice all the shortcuts they are taking. Table cloths weren't replaced and were simply wiped down. Drinks were in plastic. Lightbulbs burned out in the bathroom. Music was loud. The new owners seem to be running on the motto "cheaper is better". I'd expect to see sushi or a buffet show up soon. I won't be back. Cheaper is better is not the mantra I want to see applied to my food. I'll head down to Kit's other restaurant (Red Phoenix) in The Woodlands. *plays taps* read more

This locally owned Conroe restaurant is a favorite of our family's. We've been dining here for more than twenty-five years. The owner, Kit, knows many of us by name. She also owns Red Phoenix (my favorite of the three) on 242 in College Park and Red Ginger near Loop 336 and 105 in Conroe. Recommendations include most shrimp and chicken dishes. Generally, they have large shrimp that are perfectly cooked. Kit's restaurants are clean and the food is consistent. Special requests are never a problem. Spicy crispy shrimp and sesame dishes are my favorites. Spicy crispy shrimp has large, lightly battered prawn with a spicy tomato sauce drizzled over them on a bed of stir fried onions. This dish has always been perfect. Zucchini is consistently cooked just right, regardless of what dish it is served with. I noticed many interesting new additions to their appetizer and dinner menus. However, I stayed with an old favorite, Crispy Hunan Chicken, extra spicy. This did the trick. As it was my Father's birthday, the waitstaff brought out fried bananas sprinkled with sugar. Dad's fried banana had a candle on it and they sang "Happy Birthday". Unfortunately, on our last visit the spring rolls were greasy and chewy. There are other restaurants I'd rather eat at (after Sushi and Vietnamese, Chinese doesn't cut it anymore); however, when in Conroe, there are many very good options here and the service is always good. Update: Kit has upgraded the Spring Rolls. The new and improved spring rolls are bigger, more cabbage and less greasy. Wonderful improvement. read more

We always order from here. It's always good! We go here for Christmas Day and our family always enjoys the time together, the food and friendly service. read more

I have several groups of friends who choose Hunan Village regularly! One of the things I especially like about the food is that if the dish is normally spicy, you can get it mild. As I age, I am finding that important! I also love the fact that they can accommodate large groups. One Sunday we showed up with 24 people, and they managed to move tables around so that we could all eat together. The most amazing thing is that you can actually carry on a conversation at your table and hear others in your party. (To be honest, we couldn't hear everyone at the table when there were 24 of us, but I don't believe that would have been possible anywhere!) My two favorite dishes are the Honey Walnut (mild version) and the Lemon Chicken. read more

The food is consistently good here, we get takeout every couple of months or so. The one thing that annoys me though is that the fried rice which comes with the entree only has egg in it. I like the fried rice to have vegetables, especially if the entree is something like sesame chicken or sweet & sour shrimp that doesn't otherwise have any. Instead of charging a little extra for vegetables in your accompanying fried rice, they make you buy a whole separate order of vegetable fried rice. Then the rice that came with the entree is wasted. Maybe I shouldn't care because it's only rice, but still. They could actually be more profitable if they just charged an extra dollar or so for veggies in your side of fried rice instead of requiring the additional separate order. read more

First visit and we are from Dallas area. Our waiter wasn't really very friendly...I asked him how the shredded pork with garlic sauce was and he snarled his nose and said I can tell you I like it but if you don't there's nothing I can do. Really? Food was ok. Flavor was bland, brown rice was stuck in chucks in places. Hot and sour soup was sweet? Not good to me. I would try another Chinese choice than return here. read more

I have been coming here for years. The service and food at lunch is always good. Portions are not large but probably what a normal person is supposed to eat. I always order my meal spicy. Nice change of pace. Quiet place to have lunch with friends. read more

Hunan Village - Great place for lunch. - Chinese Near Me - Conroe, Texas

the worst take out I ever had!!! Watery no taste egg drop / corn soup. tasteless fried rice.

Tasty, tried and true. Standard Americanized Chinese fare, but well done, with plentiful portions and good service. If in doubt, try Crispy Hunan beef, shrimp, or chicken - that's the best Chinese dish in Conroe of which I'm aware. read more

Horrible service!!! I tried placing an order online they never showed up and I called 5 times and they put me on hold!! Completely rude and unprofessional! Finally after calling from a different phone they took my call and said they tried to call me but it's a lie! read more

Doug W. The only positive was the food came quickly and the overall service was good. Other than that, our meal was very disappointing. Of the four of five dishes we ordered (two chicken, one beef and one vegetable lo mein) all had the same sticky brown sauce. The vegetable dish contained beef which was a surprise. Waiter advised he was doing a favor be adding beef. Not!!! Beef was chewy and poorly flavored! Fried rice was totally bland. Having lived and worked in China for over 5 years, it was disheartening to having recently returned from there to find such a poor representation of the great food China has to offer. read more

Only order take out but have been inside location needs updated and when I drive by same few cars the workers are only ones there. Food is bland and unimpressive we no longer eat here food quality and service is poor. read more

Placed an online order and two hours later I still didn't have it. Called the restaurant phone number 10 times and nobody would pick up. There's absolutely no excuse for this kind of service; if you can't deliver the food, then don't take online orders for delivery. If you can't answer the phone when a customer calls they don't have a business. read more

My family has been eating here for close to twenty years and we always get the same exact dish: Crispy Chicken Hunan Style Gourmet Dinner (you might want to share it with someone, as the portions are on the larger side) Trust me, there is no need to even try anything else. This would please anyone that likes tasty food. The sauce is perfectly sweet and yet savory. The spring rolls are the perfect amount of crispiness with wonderfully cooked vegetables inside. Kit (the owner) is so kind, she always remembers to stop and ask how my little brother is doing. It is with out a doubt, my favorite restaurant of all time. read more

Overall, best Chinese Food in Conroe. Great food. Nice ambience.Very Good waitstaff--and reliable management. Consistent food quality over the years. Portions have gotten a bit smaller, but it's still delish. They have brown rice, too. Took grandma there for her birthday. They brought out some cake with a candle. Rather than 10 waiters embarrassing everyone, our waiter led us in song--and (this is the kind of place it is) the rest of the patrons joined in singing and clapped when she blew out the candle. Warm, wonderful evening read more

We have eaten here more than a dozen times and never had a bad meal. Carry out is quick and easy. I first ate here ten years ago before we lived this far up 45 and liked it then. Sweet & sour chicken is good, kids love the lomein. Staff is polite and service is always fast. Best Chinese in the area. read more

Update on my old review. I've gone back since and it was somewhat better. Food is edible , but it can still improve. The waiter is nicer too, maybe they are reading people's reviews and are paying attention. read more

I remember eating at Hunan Village some years back and remembering it to be good. Mind you, it was in the late 90s, early 00s. Today I called in an order to be delivered and was put on hold. I was still on hold when I walked in the restaurant. I place my order and paid for it because I was needing it delivered to a hospital that doesn't allow food from outside to be brought in, but does allow delivery. The food arrived in about 30 minutes which isn't too long in my opinion. The food; another story. It was absolutely horrible. From Sweet and Sour Chicken to the Triple Delight to Shrimp Fred Rice. The Triple D vegetables were an over stir fried mess. The Beef, Shrimp and Chicken came with a good proportion of the three, but it was as if the dish had no taste. Sweet and Sour Chicken had a very bitter tasting tempura batter and the Shrimp Fried Rice again, really had no taste. For $38.00, I will purchase from another vendor to deliver next time. read more

This place was a very pleasant surprise. The food was great as was the service. I had Wonton Soup (some of the best I've ever had), spring roll (outstanding), fried rice, and beef & broccoli. It was all amazing and very, very fresh. Staff was impeccably nice and accommodating, and the building was spotlessly clean. read more

Hunan Village - What remains of the large portions. Beef and broccoli with fried rice. - Chinese Near Me - Conroe, Texas

Not any better than the last time I was there years ago. Shrimp with Garlic sauce was good, hot, and plentiful but where's the garlic? Paid extra for fried rice but couldn't eat much of it as it came to the table barely warm. Drink waiter messed up two glasses of water and unsweet tea. Order taker brought out one water and sweet tea. They apologized and made it right but really, there were only two other tables occupied. Not recommended. Sorry I didn't get pictures but presentation was great. read more

Absolutely no flavor in any of the dishes (ordered orange chicken, cashew shrimp, Hunan noodles, fried rice, and fried spring rolls). They all had the type of bland flavor that leaves you regretting ordering it, I thought there'd at least be hope in the orange chicken, but sadly there was no tang nor orangey flavor... maybe it was just a bad night but left us very disappointed and unlikely to return to test that theory. read more

Not good at all. Looks great, just no flavor. The Kung Pao Chicken, is not the norm, it was more like Pepper Steak. Sauces and condiments were extremely watery. Will not be back. read more

We have been twice now and it is consistent with freshness and friendly staff. Very attentive. Try the gourmet meal that comes with crab puff, spring roll, choice of soup, rice and entree. Guaranteed leftovers. Our new favorite Chinese restaurant. read more

Well I ordered general taw chicken and it was raw ! I sent it back and ordered something different and it came out with mushrooms on it well I have a food allergy to mushrooms so I sent it back and they just picked out the mushrooms and brought it back out well they missed one or two of them !!! Well this is not a place for me never again!!!!! read more

We ordered Chinese here for my birthday. We got the food, and it looked good. But, when we got to eat it, it's was bland. The amount of msg they would have to put in it to make it taste good would be too much. The portions were too big. The only thing I liked was the General Tso's Chicken. read more

My husband and I tried this place because our normal Chinese food favorite place was closed. The food was great, could've offered more for the price. But overall pretty good food. read more

Totally would not recommend this establishment, spent $22.00 for lunch on Szechuan beef fried rice and two spring rolls. The spring rolls were the best out of the three items and they weren't outstanding. No flavor very bland and not good at all, all but the spring rolls went into the trash, won't be coming back here! Lessons Learned! read more

Great service and nice people but the food was the worse Chinese food I have ever eaten. Bad quality meat, not good flavor, fried rice had no flavor. Would not recommend it if you're going for a nice meal. read more

We were very disappointed and won't return. My hot and sour soup was TERRIBLE. It was by far the worse I have ever had. It had a VERY dark broth and tasted like a lot of beef Bistro. My and my wife's soups were cold. The egg rolls were okay. The main courses were not seasoned properly. My wife's sweet and sour shrimp had far too much batter and not enough shrimp. read more

Hands down best Chinese food in Conroe. High quality meats, great service, and clean atmosphere. Never had a bad meal here.
