    Chow main "extra sauce"
    Leslie L.

    I asked for extra sauce for the chow main and look at this is what I got. Just ridiculous I should've known something was gonna be bad. When I pick up my order the man behind the counter said "what you want" with a attitude. This is just plain disrespectful of this business with attitude and then do that to my order like that. Very unprofessional never going back and I'm telling everyone I know the same thing.

    Happy Buddah!! The best!

    Always best in service, food with a great beer variety!! All the staff are very courteous and the restaurant is always clean. Worth a visit for sure!

    Lunch menu
    Pamela O.

    The people here are always friendly. I've eaten here several times, and never had bad service or a bad meal. They have great lunch specials (soup, entree, and appetizer), and a great option for dinner with two entrees on one plate. I love the sweet and sour chicken along with the General Tso's chicken. This place is a staple in our restaurant rotation.

    My dad took me to this place and the taste of China is more like the taste of JOY,some recommendations I would give would be the general TSO chicken and the steamed fried chicken dumplings. The people there are really nice and make you feel at home. The owner gave us a homemade blueberry muffin. Which was so good it melted the roof of our mouth. if I were you, I would stop reading this review immediately and drive straight to this place if you're hungry. Luke the homeschooler

    May taking care of her customers!

    This place is amazing! The food is awesome and if you have been here more than once the owner May will call you by your name. Unbelievable service! I won't eat Chinese anywhere else while visiting Houston!

    Very below average MID tasting Chinese food... don't trust the reviews talking about 'best' in the area... Go to Panda Express or something. You'll at the least get fresh made food. Very underwhelming for the price I paid.

    Rice
    Cynthia E.

    I'm sorry to say I was a bit disappointed with my $27 meal here. The egg rolls were almost inedible for me as they were too salty. I ate as much as I could but couldn't take another salt filled bite so I had to throw them away after about half of the first one. The rice was also dissappointing. It was kind of like a dry, chalky taste. I bet their other fried rice options were good though! The only saving grace was the chow fun. I had the beef chow fun and that was delicious! It almost had like a grilled noodle taste and the beef was super tender. It was not over seasoned or salty at all - I was sad I couldn't eat more of it! But I will be saving it for a later meal. I think overall, I would come back for the beef chow fun or another noodle dish and possibly a chicken dish since the orange chicken looked scrumptious!

    I've had headaches after the 2 times I've eaten from here. Do they use MSG, or other preservatives?

    My wife is very sensitive to MSG! It gives her major migraines, but this has never happened after we eat here, so I would say it's not from MSG as we eat here on a fairly regular basis.

    All you can eat?

    No but the portions, quality and value are terrific. You will not leave hungry. The food quality and taste are much better than most of the Chinese restaurants in the area.

    Does anyone know if they are open for dine in services?

    Yes

I'm still thinking about it days later! If you're a dessert lover, do yourself a favor and order the brookie.

Came here after the movies with my boyfriend and we split a Cookies and Dream. - Cookies and Dream (3/5): I love the combo of warm brownie with soft serve. Also the Oreo bits added a nice texture. But this desert was just WAY TOO SWEET. The vanilla sauce was more like a sugary frosting that ruined the whole dessert for me.I don't know if it's because I'm old and my sweet tooth isn't as strong, but I couldn't eat much of it even after scraping off part of the frosting. Service/ambiance: Overall I think this was such a fun late night spot. We came at around 11:30 and the place was filled with people, mostly groups of friends, and it gave such a lively atmosphere. There was also board games that you can borrow.

I don't come often because parking is always a nightmare, and tonight was no exception. When I showed them the app, the staff seemed confused on how to do a redemption. So they had to call the owner for help. The owner apparently told them not to honor the redemption because they were in the process of switching rewards program platforms, and what used to be a 50‑point reward was going to be a 300‑point reward. The staff said my points would transfer eventually, but I only will have 63 -- not enough under the new system. Hey, I'm no entrepreneur. But I am a customer who eats out all the time. And to me this is a textbook example of an owner who doesn't get customer service. I drove all the way there, dealt with the parking, and came specifically to redeem a reward that still showed as valid in their app. It's not my fault their system hadn't switched over yet. These cakeball and truffle treats are only the size of a donut hole. It's not one of their higher end desserts. The obvious right move would've been to honor the reward and give the customer the treat. But nope. They chose the stingy route instead. And with that one decision, they lost another customer. Congrats and enjoy your cakeballs.

There are plenty tables and chairs for large groups. And sofas ( not in good condition at all... but sofas .. yes)... ya... big ones length wise. Pretty noisy actually. Good noise. Cheerful sharing while chilling over drinks and pastries - that kind of noise. Have been craving for fries lately and when I saw Common Bond, was very excited but they didn't carry the thick truffle fries which I was so fond of in the other Common Bond. Still, it was good fries and the staff was very friendly.... many high schoolers doing a summer job so they are super nice. They have a rewards program running - once registered, $spent is $earned in points which can be redeemed later. Staff was friendly and seemed like some of them were high schoolers or sort of, doing summer jobs so they were extra courteous and cautious - it was very much appreciated The fresh pastries were inviting and they had a big menu of other eats too. For me Common Bond and their specialty small dessert cakes went hand in hand. And this bakery did keep up that reputation- they had some sumptuous looking mini cakes. Definitely worth a visit.

You know, it gives gourmet without being pretentious. The bakery alone puts Common Bond in this category. If you can resist dessert order from the display case, I'm not sure you're human! The visuals and smells are always inviting, but the execution is not consistent. This time, in addition to my savory picks, It's been awhile so I thought I'd revisit my Common Bond review. This location is such a score for City Place. The only caffeine dealer apart from Starbucks walkable from the plaza, it's easy to see why patrons choose Common Bond.
