Mencius Gourmet Hunan: A Delicious Adventure in Hunan Cuisine Awaits

Best Chinese restaurant in all of Houston. The new owners work tirelessly everyday to make sure everyone is taken care of like family. I order here twice a week because I can count on them to serve me quality food and exceptional taste. I absolutely love it here! I know you will too.

We discovered this restaurant about 2 years ago. As I'm posting this review I noticed the average rating is 4, which is hard to believe. The food is ALWAYS delicious. If you go you have to try the egg rolls. They are always plump large and delicious. My personal favorite is the "Zesty chicken". I believe the main flavor is ginger, but what ever is is you have to try it. The wait staff is basically run by a "main waiter" with assistance by others to make sure your lesser needs are attended to. My wife claims they have the BEST "hot and sour" soup she has ever had. We highly recommend this restaurant!

Food was served hot and in a timely fashion. Staff was prompt and courteous. The inside was a little dim, gave off a “dated” feel. We enjoyed our meal. The server suggested a noodle dish with beef and shrimp. It was delicious. Shareable portions; next time we are ordering 3 dishes to share between four of us.

Ah man, I loved the lunch specials. The hot and sour soup was excellent, so was the garlic chicken. Went today for lunch and the doors are all locked, with notices to contact the landlord for nonpayment. Their food was hit or miss depending on who was in the kitchen, but I've had dozens of excellent lunches. I'm actually sad to see them go, they don't make Chinese places like this anymore. Bye Phil, you will be missed.

We love going to this restaurant. Tank and his wife are such nice people! We are treated with respect and they always make us feel welcome. We are happy to have met them. The staff there are attentive and make our dining experience excellent. The food is always fresh and so tasty. They have so many delicious dishes to choose from. The prices are good too. Make sure to give their bar a try. They have a nice selection. We definitely will continue to go back!

Oh my goodness... Im so freaking sad right now. This was my absolute favorite restaurant in the entire world. Its been a few years since i was in the area and able to go pick up my favorite dish from Menicus... and when i tried calling the number says busy or disconnected. I really hope everything is ok. If you guys ever open back up or open up somewhere else... please please let everyone know. The pork shrimp and cashew nut meal was so amazing. They're pork ribs... uggh I'm so depressed now. I was really really looking forward to eating my favorite meal again. A true treasure has been lost with the closing of this restaurant. These people were so kind and such amazing chefs... ill likely never find another place i loved or cherished as much as i did this one. :(

Warm reception, accurate with out to go orders. Fam favs are beef & broccoli, chicken fried rice, sesame chicken and we will request a combination of fried rice with shrimp and chicken. I have also had the egg foo young and curry chicken and the portions and flavor do not disappoint.

I had an amazing time at this Chinese restaurant! The food prices were excellent, and the taste was delicious. But what truly impressed me the most was the friendly, attentive, and cheerful attitude of the servers. Their warmth and care made the dining experience even more enjoyable. I’m already thinking about coming back every day! Highly recommended for anyone looking for great food and fantastic service.
