Reviews for Mama’s Kitchen in Houston, TX
Good small Chinese food joint. I got the chicken noodle plate. The prices of the food are a little more expensive than the... typical Chinese restaurant for the same quality, I?d say the reason for that is mainly just the location. Read more
Cute find! Saw this little corner restaurant out of the corner of my eye! Super nostalgic foods and the coconut water chicken... soup is delicious! Was having some serious gastric flare-ups and this did the trick! Definitely coming back to try the rest ofthe menu! Read more
My favorite Sichuan Chinese place in all of Houston. The food is amazing- rice crusted spicy beef is my favorite, and all the... stir fried veggies are great. The best part is that there is never a wait and the food comes out in a few minutes- the serviceis amazing! Parking can be tricky, you may need to find a spot in the outlet mall next door or on the street behind it as theparking lot out front is small. Read more
Picked a random spot close to the work hotel around 7pm on a weeknight and what a phenomenal choice. The homemade mochi were... served fresh and crispy with a delightful flaky crust and the most delicate airy chew. A light sugar syrup the perfectaccompianment to the roasted fluff. More savory, less spiced, and less heavy than the French toast stickequivalent. Flavorful, incredible tender, and perfectly spiced Spicy Diver Fish had my mouth salivating and my nosesniffling. The wintermelon was simple with that elusive combination of firm bite and watery dissolution. The seafood sauceperhaps a bit briney and off-putting with a claggy corn starch coating but likely traditional for those more used to the flavorcombination. Very small dining room with only a trickle of patrons and a few to-go orders. Service was stellar. Multipledrink refills, repeated satisfaction checks, top notch experience. Wish I lived closer but perhaps others will read this andenjoy the same delightful dining option. Thanks! Read more
The chicken was seasoned and fried at a pretty good crisp. But every bite was a piece of heaven, no cap/lie. I would recommend... you try this for your first time. Read more
Some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. And definitely some of the best milk tea. Too bad they don't have tapioca. It's a... pretty small restaurant, so try not to go during peak hours. The orange beef was so good. Read more
A cozy Chinese restaurant offering a diverse range of dishes. The portion is not big, so get to order a good variety. All... flavorful. Recommended the beef tenderloin with soft tofu and hot sauce boiled fish. Fast service despite lots of take-outorders in the background. Tips: Can RSVP and BYOB wine (corkage is less than $10 per bottle). Wine glasses provided byrestaurant. Also can customise degree of spicyness in some of the dishes. Read more
One of my favorite Szechuan restaurants in Houston. I pretty much get food from here every month because it is that... good! Usually I order Spicy Chicken Cubes (abundant fried delight = pure happiness) and then try something new. Pretty muchevery thing I've tried here has been tasty. Mama's Pepper Chicken is numbingly, spicy, while Beef Temptation has me craving forcelery mixed with the beef. The White Peach Smoothie is soothing to combat the heat of some of the dishes. The Crispy GreenOnion Pancakes are simple yet tasty with the only problem being there are not more. Green beans or cabbage, it is always hard tochoose which veggie to get. There are so many dishes to try, so I will definitely be going back for more! Food: 5/5; It isreally good! Portions are decent too! Service: 4.5/5; Sometimes it is hard to get servers attention. One time they were kindarushing us... but overall, service is decent. Price: $$ Read more
