Chinese-cafe-31

My all time favorite Chinese restaurant!! Great food, great service, good people. If I could come here 3 times a week, I would. Hot Pepper Chicken is my all time favorite, and I've been coming here for 20 years! Update: I am completely crushed since they closed down a few months ago...don't know if there's another green like this one. :(

I have been following this restaurant since they closed the location in China town. Family owned business for generations, they conserve their traditional flavor, which is what I love. You pay when you order and is practically self service. You can tell the good quality on the food and as many of my favorite places, everything I've ordered is delicious and fresh made, but I always go back to the Double Spicy Chicken and their Special Fried Rice.

This place doesn't look like much when you walk in but it has great food, and the best sweet and sour chicken I've ever had! Double spicy beef is also good, comes with lot of curry and not too spicy. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 starts is because the rice was a little on the cold side for me. Great for take away though, take it and warm it up to your desired temperature ;)

Classic Chinese restaurant from Chinatown that's migrated to this inexpensive divey part of town Not hipster. It's an old McDonald's. Make sure you know what to order We recommend the fish pieces plate Pork with bamboo shoots Pan fried dumplings Again keep your expectations in check and it's a great place.

They used to have locations in Bellaire, Sugar Land, and in the Galleria on Richmond. Sadly they're down to just this one. My favorite dishes here have always been the Kung-Pao chicken and the Mustard Green Pelt Bean with Dry Bean Curd. I have never eaten anywhere else where they make the Kung-Pao the way Chinese Cafe does, and I especially don't like it when I find my kung-pao watery and with celery like at some of the more generic places. Other dishes worth trying are the Bean Curd with Black Mushrooms, the Tomato and Egg, and the different fried rice and noodle dishes. Chinese cafe is definitely hole in the wall and you might miss it if you're not looking for it carefully. The restaurant looks like a converted McDonalds and there is plenty of seating. It doesn't look like much on the outside or inside, but the food is delicious.
