    Chicken vegetables
    Laura H.

    Today, I decided to try a new lunch spot and ordered from a restaurant. The online ordering process was pretty easy. I ordered the lunch combo L5, which included chicken with vegetables. You can choose the type of rice, soup, and either an egg roll or a spring roll. The wonton soup had a very flavorful broth and the noodles were tasty. However, the chicken and vegetables were just OK. I forgot to mention in the notes that I don't really care for too much broccoli, and my dish had a lot of it. Additionally, I don't care for zucchini in this dish. The dish was a bit bland, and the white sauce tasted like flour, so I had to use the soy sauce packet. On a positive note, the spring roll was quite delicious. If I were to dine or order from here again, I would try something else on their menu.

    R5. Combo Fried Rice. No Peas. No Carrots.
    Christabelle C.

    Ordered takeout. Food was ready at the time for pick up. Inside was decent and clean. We got... 1. Combo Fried Rice (No Peas. No Carrots.): 5/10 it was ok. There's an aftertaste I can't describe. 2. Shrimp Lo Mein (No Cabbage. No Carrots.): 5.5/10 - shrimp used were small. Noodle texture was more on the softer side. I don't like soft noodles as they tend to be more soggy when you bite into it. Some other meats got lost in this dish-- probably happens when you reuse the wok and don't get all the meat out from previous dish cooked. Also-- there's also an aftertaste I can't describe. 3. Mongolian Beef: 5/10 meat was too velveted, a little mushy, flavors were ok (not really traditional that I'm used to in authentic Chinese food places), spice level wasn't what I expected from this particular dish AND NOT ENOUGH BEEF for $19.95. Price-wise-- I don't think it was worth it. If you wanted extra beef, they charge an additional $10. It was literally like 10 pcs of beef (sizes ranged from regular to tiny bits) and mostly onions and green onions. So thinking the way I think, I paid $2/ pcs of beef. I was pretty disappointed when I opened the container TBH. To charge that price-- at least give 20 pcs of meat-- making it approximately $1/pc of beef. Yeah... I had BEEF with this BEEF dish. I'd still give it another try in the future. It wasn't the worst, it wasn't the best-- but it was average for us. Try it for yourselves, you might like/love it.

    They are open for dining in and we enjoyed a couple lunch specials. My wife had the happy family with beef, chicken and shrimp, it was loaded with veggies. I went with the General Tso's chicken and it was spicy so sharing wasn't an option since my wife doesn't like much spice, I loved it. We both enjoyed our choice of wonton soup, and an egg roll. We've ordered delivery from here and really loved it so it was a no brainer to visit, glad we did, we have a new favorite in the immediate area.

    Ordered the general tso and fried rice. Food was good but pricey. Service was quick as there were not any other customers at my time of visit. Located in Meyerland, near major highway, so that's a plus!

    Healthy Chinese American food. Less oily and more vegetables compared to other places. Also has brown rice as an option.

    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.

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.

Pork Bao's are normally my daughter fave but the soup dumplings here are her favorite. She could finish an order on her own. The service is always great. As soon as you get in they give everyone a water and a carafe of more water. There is a QR code to order and you place your order on the phone. The order goes straight to the kitchen and you can add as you go if wanted. I always thought that was pretty cool. The owner came out to say hello and ask how everything is. She even brought out a small bowl of soup for my baby to enjoy. The waitress was also very sweet and attentive. I don't live close by but will make the trip when the craving hits. Today was one of those days. The last time I was here there was no ac and not enough seating. This time it was nice and cool in and well as having new seating!

Today was my lucky day because there was plenty of parking spots and seats (although the parking lot is very small). This place is great! I understand the hype for sure. When you walk inside it's just about the smallest restraunt I've ever. Very cozy and cute vibe with smooth jazz playing on a speaker and we got our food very fast. I really enjoyed my time here. Dry Fried Green Beans 5/5- these are the best green beans I have had in my life! I am not exaggerating like I will be thinking about these green beans all week. Do not hesitate to try these. 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!
