Hu's Cooking

This restaurant is one of those hidden gems that Houston is best known for, despite its lack of a more centralized food rating system ahem* Michelin Star. The exterior of Hu's Cooking is rather unassuming and located in a small plaza where the majority of people around probably came from Hu's. Even after trying four dishes, it's safe to say that I will definitely be back to try new dishes. Every single dish was served blazingly quick after submitting our order with each dish more delicious than the last.

Restaurant was clean and service was quick and decent prices and good portions. However, food was… meh. The Dan Dan noodles were way too nutty so not my personal preference, everything was just so oily, and the hargow was way overcooked (shrimp was rubbery and the skin was falling apart). Chili oil dumplings were ok but the oil tasted burnt. The Woodear mushrooms were way too salty where I expected more of a vinegar-y taste. With that being said, this is probably one of the better places to get Chinese food in the area.

Wait time was shorter in the afternoon than in the evening. I came on a Saturday afternoon and I didn't have to wait. Tuesday evening, there was about 20-30mins. The staff were pretty quick and helped me out when there was a dish I didn't like too much. It can get pretty difficult to move around so it's hard for bulky things like wheelchairs, walkers or strollers. The cooks who make the dishes are different in the morning and evening. Some of the food that I ordered during the afternoon tasted off like the beef in the Mongolian beef and the pork in the shu mai. I usually don't order the hot & sour soup but I was told it was pretty good here and I agree. My favorite is the spicy fried chicken! I order it with no peppercorn.

We had an amazing experience eating here! All of the staff is very friendly, and helpful. The food is DELICIOUS. The menu has so many options! We are excited to return and try some more dishes.

A popular Chinese Restaurant with a nice western accent to it! I have heard great things about Hu’s Cooking from many people across different companies and organizations. This place didn’t disappoint! While it is not the most authentic, it does a good job striking a balance between Chinese flavors and western influences. Parking can be a bit challenging due to the small lot behind the building, the parking lot’s poor condition, and the trash cans near it. However, once you walk inside, you get a nice, safe, and clean feeling! The place has a friendly atmosphere and the staff match the energy by taking great care of you. The clientele is mostly composed of West University families and nearby office workers. The food was delicious and retained lots of traditional flavors! This place is probably best compared to Mala Sichuan. The cooks made a few substitutions that make the food a tad more westernized compared to Mala Sichuan, but overall it retained the same textures and the flavors used the same amount of garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and salt. I highly recommend giving Hu’s Cooking a try, just make sure to give yourself an extra 1-3 minutes to find parking.

We LOVE EVERYTHING about Hu’s Cooking! We drive from San Antonio to eat here every chance we get. Great food, great service and great atmosphere. The Black Pepper Beef Cube is one of my favorites. Authentic as it gets 💯⚡️💯

PHENOMENAL!! Don’t try to find a better Asian cuisine in the city! This place is pure magic and I’m still having dreams of the crispy spicy fried chicken! Usually I like my dishes with lots of sauces and this one was pretty dry but the flavor alone with the crispy texture of the chicken was OFF THE CHARTS! My wife and son had the house fried noodles and the Szechuan Sautéed beef and they were both incredible as well! The atmosphere inside is very inviting and although this restaurant is in a shopping center and parking is very limited, don’t let that stop you from having one of the best Asian culinary experiences you can have for a dish $20 or under!!

Authentic Sichuan cuisine that delivers flavor every time. It’s usually busy whenever we dine in here, but there’s no wait. We ordered Beijing style pork, liver and kidney, dry fried intestine. All were excellent and delicious, especially organ meat, they did a great job!! I see us coming back to this place many more! Update: sad that they discontinued kidney and liver, but still love their popcorn chicken with basil!

The food is outstanding! Some of the best I have had! We are visitors to Houston Medical Center. We have found a new place to go!

Some of the best service I've had. Good was great. Environment was comfortable. Server did a professional job and friendly as well

I absolutely LOVE Hu's cooking. It's a definitely a go to for me and my friends. This time around we got the crispy fish bites (9.5/10), the spicy chicken (9/10), the shrimp and spare rib dry pot (10/10) and the green beans (9/10). The dry pot is definitely the standout dish and always my pick when we go. I love how savory and spicy the dry pot is making it perfect to pair with rice. Everything I've tried at Hu's has been spectacular and the service is top notch. The parking is limited in the front but they have a dedicated lot in the back of the building. Will definitely keep coming back!

Staying at medical center with family. We found the place on Yelp. They only deliver through grub hub which adds 50% with tax, tip, and charges. Overall, solid Chinese Szechuan cuisine. Kung pao was good. Chili were appropriately spicy. The fish in spicy oil was very tasty with a decent serving size. The hot and sour soup was so so. Overall, a solid Chinese place close to the medical center.

Amazing lunch special take out for a great price! Would appreciate a bigger portion for sure! Love the extra spring roll and soup as well Service - fast takeout prep Ambiance - casual Chinese food

Hu's is an authentic Chinese spot in a prime location in the medical center that I've had my eye on. After a late-night baseball game, we found ourselves looking for places that were still open and thought, why not finally make the drive to Hu's? Since they were close to closing when we arrived, we quickly decided on our order, but it took a while for anyone to come to our table, so I guess they weren't in too much of a rush. When our waitress did come, she was super sweet and helped with all of our questions. We ordered the sweet-skinned duck, the squid hot pot, and the house combination fried rice. The duck was perfect--the skin was sweet and crisp, and the meat was juicy. The skin stuck to my teeth, but I didn't mind because it tasted amazing. The squid hot pot had a strong peppercorn flavor, which was a bit too intense, but I really enjoyed the vegetables. As for the fried rice, it was exactly what I wanted--perfectly cooked and full of protein. I can't wait to stop by again!

I found myself at Hu's Cooking for dinner with several friends. Since we were looking to get together and I did not know the area at all, I left it to my friend Brian T. to do the planning. He had good things to say about Hu's, and since they were able to accommodate our party of 9 and sit us at a round table to maximal conversation, we made our way over. When I arrived the restaurant was bustling - it's not the largest space and it almost rectangular in shape, but there is a decent amount of space for multiple tables. Decor is minimal, but the light color scheme makes the space look very open. The menu contains mostly Szechuan dishes, served family style. Note that the restaurant is BYOB. We decided to order several dishes to share: mushrooms, lamb, tofu, beef with bao buns, green beans, chicken bites, fish bites, and beef noodles. Everything was really tasty - I especially liked the green beans, beef noodles, and the chicken bites, though honestly everything was seasoned well and had great flavor. Food also came out promptly, we decided to order a few more plates midway and there were no problems accommodating that. Service was great, we were take care of promptly and all of the food came out at a good pace. Overall, I had a great time at Hu's Cooking; the food and service were great, and it was wonderful getting together with friends. I would definitely consider returning here next time I find myself in Houston.

I'm surprised that I haven't put in the praise I always have for this place previously. Ever since they opened, I have made this my go-to spot whenever I'm in town, or on campus and have a craving. Yes, parking is absolutely atrocious. They have about five spots out front, in the back lot. Looks like at least six bombs have gone off. The spaces are not well marked, and aren't necessarily even sized either. The potholes, and dip on the exit aren't kind to any car that uses tires. There's neighborhood street parking if you're comfortable doing that.. Most people with the nicer cars will park there and it tends to be pretty full quickly so plan accordingly.. If you can find parking, you're in for a treat. Over the years, I have never had to wait for a seat yet. They are always busy, but not so busy that I can't get a spot to eat. The staff has always been super friendly, and the service has always been very efficient. The food has never come out cold, or inaccurate. They are good solo, or in groups. They have a drink menu, but you can BYOB, Total Wine is one light up the road if you want to bring your favorite, or try some strange drank. Get the roundtable with the Lazy Susan. Serving made easy. My favorites here are the Mapo Tofu, Spicy Chicken (Fried) and Spicy Fish Bites (Fried). I have tried 3/4 of the menu, and enjoyed all of it. Check the pics out. The Med Center proper has only few places scattered about, and the majority is eh. This gem is worth driving in for. Give it a taste. You won't be disappointed.

Went to Hu's on a Wednesday night and it was great. They're so attentive and the flavor of the food matched as well. Soon as we walked in we were greeted and seated. The furniture is beautiful, love the wood fixtures and the decorations. The food was so tasty. First restaurant I went to where I got my food before the drink I ordered. It was that fast and they also keep the restaurant clean. Really great start to my trip.

Wait time was shorter in the afternoon than in the evening. I came on a Saturday afternoon and I didn't have to wait. Tuesday evening, there was about 20-30mins. The staff were pretty quick and helped me out when there was a dish I didn't like too much. It can get pretty difficult to move around so it's hard for bulky things like wheelchairs, walkers or strollers. The cooks who make the dishes are different in the morning and evening. Some of the food that I ordered during the afternoon tasted off like the beef in the Mongolian beef and the pork in the shu mai. I usually don't order the hot & sour soup but I was told it was pretty good here and I agree. My favorite is the spicy fried chicken! I order it with no peppercorn.

Located very close to the Rice campus near the Medical Center Area in Houston Texas, Hu's Cooking serves the classic American Chinese dishes very well, but also has some very specific dishes I've not seen elsewhere (though didn't order them). It's a good indication that this is THE spot for locals who trust the chef here, and want him/her to recreate dishes that they crave from back home. We came here on a Monday night, after a long day of traveling. Our nephew who we were visiting, knows that we like trying different Chinese restaurants, so he suggested we take a bus from our hotel to Hu's. A bit surprising since I knew he is not a fan of Chinese cuisine, but was appreciative of his generosity in thinking of what we would like. He had been here once with his friends, and stated that all of them seemed to really like it. The outside doesn't look like much, located in a aging strip mall with a little parking. But the inside is nicely remodeled, and we were shown to a corner table. The menu is two sided and laminated.with both english and chinese markings. Water was brought, and a pail of cooked white rice was given, making the assumption that we would eat rice with whatever dish we ordered. I've become accustomed to rice always being charged separately, so this was a pleasant learning. We ordered three things, all excellent" -- Pork fried rice with kimchi ($14.50) - this is the one dish that my nephew would eat here. He couldn't finish it, so I helped him, and it was very, very good. The old kimchi was the perfect amount of sourness, there were nice slices of pork loin (pork just goes so well with kimchi), and the old rice was fried just right. It's a really well executed dish that probably didn't take the chef very long, but really tasted like it did. -- Twice cooked pork ($17) - boiled pork belly, sliced and wok cooked with black bean, leeks, white onions, and chili bean oil/sauce. A dish well executed, with plenty of protein. It did give the two of us a bit of a stomach problem later because of the oiliness of the sauce and meat itself, but that's on us. -- Mongolian beef ($17.50) - this was the safety dish, in case the pork wasn't liked. I really liked this dish too, where the beef wasn't so gummy, but instead was closer to crispy, the way it is supposed to be. The wok fired taste was there. Could have even been more crispy for my taste. The dining room got pretty full by the time we were about to leave, and it was a lively crowd. The service was good, keeping our water full (we had plenty of white rice). And it's clear that the chef is an expert at wok cooking...so many more dishes on the menu where that skill would elevate the dish so much. Definitely a place where I would come again when in the area.

One of my favorite Chinese restaurants in Houston, food is just amazing! Close to TMC so it's convenient for me to visit when I don't want to drive to Chinatown. I never had a dish that I didn't like here, everything is delicious. Always kinda crowded due to popularity but the service is fast. My out-of-town friends also like this place (I take them here when they crave Chinese food).

Great food and reasonable pricing, the fry noodle is a must try, The ingredients are freshly made

This is a great place for Americanized Chinese food of many different types. The menu has tons of different options. I tried the shrimp fried rice and enjoyed it quite a bit. My grandfather liked his Lo mein with several types of protein (seafood and also chicken and beef). The staff speak Chinese which was great for my grandfather to communicate with them. Service was rapid and my drink was refilled several times.

When have i ever ordered an appropriate amount of food for one? Answer is never. I wanted to try muktiple disbes so i ended up getting enough for 5 persons. Definitely have days of leftovers but now i can give you guys an idea of whats a yay or a nay. 1. Boiled fish filet in chili oil. Didnt have any spiciness to it which was unfortunate. Was boiled fish. Fish was nice and fresh so this dish gets a 6/10 2. Garlic eggplant with no meat. Sweet sauce and perfectly cooked eggplant. First place that offers non meat option. 8/10 3. Cauliflower pot. Kinda disappointed that it wasnt szechuan spicy like it should be. Boo. 6/10 4. Honey walnut shrimp. 10/10. Nice fat juicy and crispy shrimp. The mayo sauce wasnt too overwhelming. Was perfect. Yum.

My favorite Chinese spot in Houston. Located on Holcombe near the med center. The parking sucks but the food is well worth it. We shared the chili oil wontons, spicy fried fish bites, shredded pork with buns, and shrimp fried noodles. Everything was so good. The chili oil wonton sauce is perfect. I like to spoon it over my rice. They provide a generous amount of rice for the table to share. The fried fish bites had the perfect texture. The only comment I would make is that the buns for the shredded pork were not very soft. The food is amazing and I can't wait to go back.

I've always driven by this place but so lucky to have stumbled upon it when I was hungry late one night. I go to Mala Sichuan Bistro for Szechuan food a lot, but I was pleasantly surprised by Hu's Cooking. The storefront is very open with a lot of comfortable warm lighting. I loved that it was busy even on a weekday, but the service was still very quick. The customers were diverse from couples to large groups to families to coworkers. Their menu is large, and they have a lot of Chinese and Szechuan options. The portions and price are reasonable! - Cumin lamb: 4/5 could be spicier, but the celery is yummy, seasoning comes through, all complemented by cilantro stems. I always love cumin lamb lol this did not disappoint! - Twice cooked pork: 4.5/5 it's sweeter and milder than other places I've had but I actually really liked it, the texture on the pork belly is so good almost like jelly - Spicy crispy chicken: 4/5 I think this should def be spicier if you are claiming it to be spicy on the menu, but still solid, they give more chicken than other places, the light crisp is perfect, and the onions were cooked just right Overall, I would definitely return, especially with a friend group or family. The flavor is not as spicy and more catered to the medical center demographic, but it is still really flavorful and pleasant! Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area.

IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY AS A PROPER HOUSTONIAN TO LET MY FRIENDS, FAMILIY AND NEIGHBORS KNOW WHAT IS AROUND THAT IS GOOD! Enter "Hu's Cooking" and I love the play on words. Firstly, I say I love the chairs. Ima a big boy and have been to restaurants where the chair could not hold me up. Then, th selection was amazing. The behavior of the restaurant was so authentic. Plus, the owner, MR. HU, is kind and sweet and truly wants his customers happy!!! He stood up to shake my hand and I appreciated him and his staff. We had two amazing servers and they "ran" to and from our table! Pricing is at $10-20 and 36 minutes from my house in Kingwood. And to think going there was an after thought. Thank you MARA AND Jonathon Quest for insisting we try this amazing restaurant.

This place was perfect after a long day of moving!! Came here to grab a quick bite and was amazed by the fast service and the size of the dishes!! Overall, inside was very clean and busy but there was a good amount of seating. We were lucky enough to find a spot in the front lot but I believe there is also parking around back. We shared the pork dumplings, orange chicken, and bottomless rice. The orange chicken was really crispy (which I like) and very flavorful. We got the dumplings fried, and they came out very hot and crispy. Love that the rice was bottomless too. Overall, I really enjoyed this spot and will definitely be back to dine in or take out.

Top tier Szechuan/Hunan cuisine. Have dined here 4 or 5 times. Never disappointed with the evening meals. The lunch menu is for Americans, not Asians. Probably included a fortune cookie! The stir fried green beans are to die for! Kumin beef is a killer, yum! Everything mala is really good. Service is efficient n friendly. The owners, are almost always on hand, friendly and helpful. A very good Chinese restaurant to take out of town guests from Hicksville. Always impressed, satisfied and happy. Decent wine list reasonably priced.

Stir Fried String Beans 5.5/10 - needs to be cooked a bit more, had the raw string bean flavor - a bit bland but enjoyed the crunch Sweet and Sour Short Ribs 4/10 - pork was very tender - I just personally was not a fan of the dish Dan Dan Noodles 5/10 - thought it was a bit plain, no spice Eggplants in Garlic Sauce 8/10 - lots of sauce and cooked wel Spicy Fried Fish Bites 10/10 - crispy outside and flaky inside - nice spice level - my favorite dish so far! - easy small pieces The spicy fried fish bites were the best dish by far!

Great Chinese food with a good variety in the menu. I always come here when I'm in the area and it never disappoints. It's actually one of my friend's favorite restaurant! The food is soo good and has really good flavor, and the portion sizes are great. It's a very casual and great for eating with friends or family. They are super popular and always crowded so expect a bit of a wait. I know they are also super popular for take out too. Parking is a little tight tho. The workers are also great. It's pretty fast paced so it's not like they are gonna have full conversations, but they are super helpful and nearby when you need anything.

The first time I ever had Hu's was catering for a school event, and I've been a loyal customer since. My boyfriend and I's go-to dishes are the crispy chicken, mapo tofu, and eggplants in garlic sauce. This time, we requested the mapo tofu to be extra spicy and it was delicious! We also decided to try something new and got the Singapore style stir fried noodles, and it just wasn't our cup of tea. Their prices are very reasonable, with each dish averaging around $13 and comes in a good-sized portion perfect for sharing. Spacious interior, only downside is the limited parking, but there is additional parking behind the building.

Came in as a big group of 14 on a Tuesday evening, had no issues with accommodating us. Dress: very casual Food 6/5: ordered the dry chicken wing pot, garlic eggplant, pickled flounder, cumin lamb, the wontons, mapo tofu, stir fried bok choy, beef tenderloin with soft tofu, sautéed lotus root and spicy chicken. Ordered way too much (multiple orders of some of the above) and finished it all Ambiance 3/5: clean, can be a bit loud, fairly casual diner vibes. For a Chinese restaurant, quite good. Parking lot a bit of a disaster. Service 5/5: very quick considering how many people we had, always good about water and rice refills. Acoomodated a large group without prior notice with no issues Value 4/5: pretty decent prices for the food, some standouts for value like the mapo tofu and the pickled flounder, rest of it you're paying appropriate price for good food. Overall 5/5: my personal favorite Chinese restaurant in town, regulars here. Recommend the dry chicken wing pot, mapo tofu and cumin lamb dishes especially but most of it is great. Parking: limited parking in front of the restaurant and a back gravel lot behind the restaurant. There are signs that are kind of confusing but basically any spot that says Hu's cooking is ok to park in...ignore any other words on the sign

Stopped in for lunch. Was not impressed. Thousand Layer pancake, $5: came out smaller than expected and was undercooked and quite greasy. Lunch Kung Pao Chicken, $13.5: This was a large lunch portion. The hot and sour soup was good not great. Kung Pao chicken was covered in a very sweet sauce that was not spicy at all, very let down with overall taste. I did not finish the portion. Fried rice had a odd flavor, like old oil. Fried spring rolls, very hot and crispy outside, and just straight mush inside. Bok Choy was a large portion and nicely cooked, it was the best item that we had here. Lunch Sautéed spicy Fried chicken Cubes, $13.50: There was a good portion of crispy fried chicken. It was not spicy. all in all good not great. The rest of the items were exactly the same quality and taste as the Kung Pao lunch dish. I was very excited and drove into town specifically to eat lunch here, but honestly it was not worth the time. Could have been an off day or something. I cannot recommend and would not return.

Pretty tasty food! Particularly the green beans. Would order those again. The seasoning and fresh garlic used was really delicious. Servers were friendly and our food came out very quickly. Would go back for a tasty Chinese meal

Hu's Cooking is one of my go-to places when I want authentic Chinese food without having to drive to Houston Chinatown. My friends & I love doing family style here since there are so many amazing dishes to share. My personal favorite is the spicy chicken. It does have numbing qualities but even my friends with low spice tolerances will deal with it just because of how delicious it is especially when paired with the green beans and white rice. The green beans have great garlic and wok flavors that are a must have as well. The Mongolian beef, twice cooked pork (not pictured), and the house combination fried noodles also have amazing flavors that I would recommend trying if there are no dietary restrictions. The service is amazing and we usually get seated fairly quickly even at peak dining times. The place is fairly spacious that can accommodate various party sizes but larger party sizes will have to wait longer if the bigger tables are taken. The only downside is parking can be difficult to find. They have parking in the front but also there is a lot in the back of the restaurant. Just be cautious to only park where it is allowed for Hu's Cooking or your car can get towed. Worse case scenario, there is some street parking available where you can walk over to the establishment as well but I would definitely suggest carpooling.

Excellent and efficient lunch here! We shared the Orange beef lunch special and Kung pao chicken lunch special, hot & sour soup, egg rolls and fried rice included.we also had the BBQ Buns. It was all delicious and perfectly cooked. Can't wait to come back. There are a few parking spots in front for lucky patrons.

Love the food and fast service! One of our favorite places to dine! The general tso's chicken and eggrolls are the best.

Another awesome experience. General Tso's chicken and chicken fried rice- as good as I remembered. Super fast takes out food service. It's only too bad that we live in the northern suburbs and only get into the city occasionally.

great place to order family style and lots of options for veg and non veg people. my favorites are the mapo tofu, spicy fried chicken, chili oil wontons, snowpea shoots and eggplant in garlic sauce. food is all fresh, comes out fast, and great portions. service is really quick it can be a little cold sometimes in the restaurant and parking is a little rough!

Delicious takeout spot! Hu's has been on my radar for years it seems like & I finally tried it! I couldn't decide on any single item so I ordered 3 instead (don't worry I had left overs for days). I ordered delivery & was impressed with how hot the food arrived! I tried their stir fried rice noodle, shrimp in garlic sauce & beef with broccoli lunch special. I love Chinese food but constantly find myself disappointed at the lack of taste or quality, not this time! It's evident that Hu's uses quality meat & ingredients and I think their prices are very comparable to other Asian restaurants who skimp on quality. I seriously can't wait to try other items on the menu!

Service was fast. Good tasted absolutely wonderful. Totally authentic. I'll definitely visit next time I'm in Houston.

Most legit Chinese food in the loop. All the dishes are delicious and flavorful. The Mapo tofu has good flavor, soft tofu and bits of pork. The stir fried bok choy has a buttery garlic sauce and is delicious. The Mongolian beef is tender and flavorful, but has a high ratio of onions. Lunch and weekends they have a few popular dim sum like har gau, siu mai, pork buns and sesame balls. Service is efficient and on point. The food comes out quickly. Casual dining atmosphere is great for a gathering of friends or family. A few parking spots in the front. A small lot in the back the fills up quickly during peak times.

Eat some spicy fried chicken bites with a mound of tasty fried rice for lunch and thank me later.

Come here for lunch because it is literally the BEST deal!!! Service is super fast, ambiance is casual and family-friendly, and the food is hot and fresh. Super good place to get some home-cooked Chinese food in town :)

This place is great and one of the best Chinese food in the area. It is always packed at dinner and lots of Asian people. IYKYK. The service is so quick but sometimes you do have to flag down service for refills when they are busy. But otherwise they're attentive. The food is amazing. My favorites are the Popcorn Chicken And Vegetables - Chicken, Mushroom, String Beans and Garlic Pork Ribs With Onion - pork ribs, onion, garlic, green and red bell peppers. But so many of their dishes are great.

Located near Rice university, Hu's cooking is probably the most authentic Sichuan food in the loop in my opinion. Parking is limited. The restaurant has a few parking spots in the front and a small parking lot in the back which is normally pretty packed. We dined in and ordered to-go couple times. The to-go orders are packaged well. Our favorites and must haves are the Kung Pao chicken and eggplants in garlic sauce and spicy chicken. However, during our most recent visit, the Spicy chicken had more onions than chicken cubes, came out less crispy and had less flavors than before. Hopefully it's just a one time flop. Although slightly disappointed in the spicy chicken, their portion and flavors for most dishes are pretty solid and authentic. We'd definitely be back again.

. I had ''garlic shrimp'' here tonight. About my/our 5th or 6th visit over some years. Quick service, fairly good U.S. Chinese Resturant style food. Way too much SUGAR. Consistent. As I dined alone, bill was $22 + $4 ''tip''. Fair values. Easy parking off street. Old standby. Most mealtimes; place is filled with students, Nurses, Police etc. Good values; do try Hu's Rick .

Hu's Cooking is another Szechuan restaurant that popped up in the Houston dining scene during the great era of Sichuan everything around town of the late 2010s. I have been coming to Hu's Cooking since I worked in the medical center. One of my first times was for lunch with a coworker and we kinda went all out for lunch. Since then I have been very faithful to the same dishes repeatedly. My favorites in no particular order are: dan dan noodles, sesame chicken, combination noodles, orange beef, mapo tofu, and literally any of their vegetable dishes. But my absolute favorite dish is the spicy fish bites. The bites truly are spicy but they are also equally crispy. Slightly saltier than what you would expect them to be but they are so good. Normally I would not recommend something that is this salty but the salty and spicy combo with the crispy and flaky fish on the inside is such a nice textural and flavor variation that your mouth is begging for more. I also do enjoy their eggplants in garlic sauce (no meat) dish. It is very garlicky as the name suggests. The eggplant is cooked to a soft almost near mushy consistency without being mushy. I suppose it is very malleable with a fork consistency if we are being very specific. Price is what you would expect for food to be whether you are now inside or outside the loop. Service is quick, efficient, and friendly. Parking is a little limited so do ride together or use a ride share service if possible. It is equally good if you can get it delivered. Not sure if they are on UberEats but I have gotten it from Favor in the past.

A GREAT spot when you're craving Chinese food. While I stay about 20 minutes from this location when I'm in Houston, it's worth the round trip drive to eat at home We got the Mongolian beef and the chicken with broccoli. Much to my surprise, the chicken with broccoli was our fav of the night! Service was right on time and they were very helpful with locating my order!

Yummy! We were looking for a place to eat after visiting the park and we ended up at Hu's Cooking. There are a few parking spots in the front with a small lot in the back. Walking in, we were greeted right away. The hostess and waiters and waitresses were very nice and really helpful with our menu questions. For our table of 6, we ordered five dishes. This ended up being plenty as the portions are generous and we had leftovers. Dan dan noodles: this was the smallest portion, definitely good to pair with another dish. With a hint of peanut flavor and just the right amount of peppercorn, this was a winner. Stir fried eggplants: fantastic! For me, eggplants can tend to taste oily if not prepared well. This was not thr case here. Smothered in a sweet and savory sauce, this goes perfectly with rice. This plate was emptied. House combination fried noodles: juicy chicken, al dente noodles, soft cabbage, and tons of garlic. The only downside of this dish was the slightly dry beef. Braised beef with noodles: spicy! Noodles were cooked well and the beef tendons absorbed so much flavor. The meat could have been more tender but the flavor was great. Spicy pot with everything: not sure what this one was called. It was a spicy soup filled with spam, intestines, bean sprouts, celery, and all sorts of other veggies. Wuiet good with rice for balance.

Well - they did it again. A little packed and I thought I'd be stuffed in a chair, but the placing was not as over crowded as I thought it would be walking in the door. Had the spicy shabu-shabu lamb and spearmint soup - very delicious!! It is just right too - if you don't want over spicy, just avoid eating the peppers. Wow. My only complaint is they don't have the dim sum menu all day. I freakin LOVE the egg dumplings!

Finally went to this Houston staple and I see why it's a popular spot! It was packed on a Tuesday night and rightfully so. Just good food. Large portions. The pork in chili oil is enough for 2-3 people to share. It's huge. I tried to show my hand in the pic to give an idea of the large sized bowl but it doesn't do it justice. It was good too! Large slices of pork and many vegetables. It wasn't spicy so I did add chili to it. The chili oil also isn't heavy so that was nice. The pea shoots either garlic was excellent-very tender but still crispy. The chicken dish was also good. Staff was busy so we did have to flag down a waiter to get our order taken, but food came out fast and staff was nice. It's nice on the inside. No problems there. It's a large menu with a lot of protein options so I'll be back to try more dishes.

Husband found this place on Yelp after our original plan fell through so I wasnt expecting too much. I suppose it was all meant to be though because wow! Everything was delicious!! I wasn't too hungry so I kept it very simple and I always think if place can do a basic dish well then I'll trust them with any other dish. I ordered steamed pork dumplings and chicken friend rice. My husband ordered dan Dan noodles and the spicy fried chicken. I loved everything! Chicken fried rice was probably the best I've ever had. Dan Dan noodles had a nice lil kick to them a long with the friend chicken. We can't stop talking about how we need to go back asap. Service was decent, waitress left toward the end of our meal and didn't say anything to us when she left but for some reason it seemed normal there so the folks at the hostess stand took care of us when we checked out. The place was bright and bustling. Lots of different clientele. I'm honestly ready to try more of their dishes!

I had high hopes for Hu's and they did not disappoint! This is a family owned business (Mr. Hu was even walking around and serving folks!) with delectable Sichuanese food and tables complete with lazy Susans for family-style eating. My favorite dishes at Hu's were the green beans and fried chicken with red peppers. Thanks to the use of Sichuan peppercorn, some of the dishes have a delightful numbing yet floral and addictive spiciness. I have a low spice tolerance, but think the málà flavor profile is one that everyone needs to try at least once in their lifetime because the sensation is so unique.

Fantastic restaurant gotta get the mayo tofu, the eggplant, and this fish. There's parking in the back if you see it it full in the front.

It was my first time trying this Houston staple. I have heard of it, gotten recommendations for it, but have never visited myself, so was looking forward to it. It's pretty popular and well known, and I see why. Located right off the Tx Med Center. Frequented by medical professionals and neighborhood residents. I came with a group of Elites, one of them frequents this place often. She ordered for our table. Thank God she did because I probably would not have gotten to taste a variety of dishes, had I ordered myself. Parking- they have a small lot out front that they share with other businesses. There is a larger parking lot in the back, but it was full. There's side street parking, and I went with that. Service- was good. The place was busy but not packed. Filled with families, small and large groups, and couples, of all backgrounds and races. Food came out pretty quickly, considering all we ordered. Food - because I did not order myself, I can't list the exact names of the dishes. But believe she ordered: Lamb dish Eggplant Fish String beans Chicken Tofo Most, if not all, the dishes came with some heat, which I enjoyed. Everything tasted fresh and well made. Positive experience, would return.

A quick review of my favorite Chinese place! We forced ourselves to order things we'd not had, yet. (We love our usual items so much!) Y'all! Everything is soooooo good! Just go there as often as possible!
