Orient Cafe - Missouri City

I placed a straightforward order for garlic green beans with extra garlic sauce, but was disappointed as the sauce barely made it onto the dish. The green beans were extremely dry and stringy. Additionally, they don’t even offer vegetarian spring rolls. The steamed rice was overly soft and gummy as well. I couldn’t enjoy my meal and couldn’t even finish it. I wouldn't recommend this place at all.

I ordered the beef with broccoli and General Tso's chicken (white meat). Both dishes were excellent, and the chicken was particularly tender. It's probably the only General Tso's I've had that actually had a bit of a kick to the sauce. I also tried the fried crab meat rangoons for the first time; they weren't bad, but there wasn't a lot of crab meat in them.

They offer complimentary fried rice, and you can also order brown rice for an additional charge. The shrimp egg roll is slightly above average, and you'll receive three patties in your order. The General Tso's chicken tastes better than it looks. However, the chicken and broccoli dish could have used about 10% more chicken, as they don't completely fill the container. I found the portion size for the General Tso's chicken to be smaller than what you'd typically get at a Thai restaurant. The dipping sauce was probably the most disappointing part of my meal; it was rather bland. While it has a thick consistency, it tasted a bit too much like soy sauce.

Very rude and dismissed via the phone customer service. I wanted to place a large order online. But I couldn't pick it up because I work at home. The delivery time is 50mins and I tried to see if they could speed up the delivery time because I wanted to place an order over $60. The man who answered was just not interested and said okay. We hung up and that was it.

The worse sweet and sour shrimp ever!!! Overly fried shrimp with a container on the side of sweet and sour sauce. The shrimp was cold and hard and fried. Since when is sweet and sour shrimp not boiled and sauteed in sweet and sour sauce?!? When I called about it thinking they had just mixed up the orders the guy told me that's how they were made always. He didn't tell me that when I called and there is no description or picture of it since they cook it so differently than any other restaurants. No apology or remorse. It's okay because I never should have kept the flyer they left on my door. I never should have tried to give a mom and pop restaurant a chance because not all mom and pop restaurants are honest. I can't believe they are still open severing trash food. Lesson learned, next time I'm going to Panda Express. At Panda Express, it's more affordable, always hot, and always exactly what you ordered.
