I wish I could give 0 stars. I’ve ordered from this restaurant multiple times through Uber Eats, and every time the food has been disappointing — either overcooked, smelling stale, or tasting like it was made days ago. Today, I gave it another try and even called the restaurant beforehand to mention my previous bad experiences and asked them to ensure the food was fresh this time. Unfortunately, the biryani I received was again terrible — the rice was broken(doesn’t even look like Basmati rice), tasted old, and the overall quality was worse than expected. It’s really disappointing, especially after taking the time to inform them in advance. It seems like they care more about sales than customer satisfaction. I’m definitely avoiding this restaurant from my list from now on.

I recently tried the Veg Gravy Manchurian, Garlic Burnt Fried Rice, and Masala Noodles at The Monk’s Indo-Chinese. All the vegetarian dishes were absolutely delicious — the flavors were rich, authentic, and perfectly balanced. Each dish had its own unique taste, and everything was freshly prepared and served hot.
The staff was very friendly and made the overall experience even better. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for flavorful and satisfying Indo-Chinese cuisine. I’m definitely looking forward to visiting again!

Had a great time at The Monks! The chicken Manchow soup was the highlight, so flavorful and comforting. Loved the chicken tandoori momos and Hakka noodles too. This is the spot to get the best Indo-Chinese street food.

I recently dined at The Monk’s, and I must say, it was an amazing experience! The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere with a beautiful decor that transports you straight to China. But what really sets The Monk’s apart is their food and service.
I was pleasantly surprised by the wide variety of dishes on the menu. Each dish was made with fresh ingredients and the flavors were simply outstanding. What really impressed me was their willingness to go the extra mile to make sure we were completely satisfied with our meal. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and they were more than happy to create custom noodles to suit our Indian based spicy taste. The noodles turned out to be absolutely delicious, and it was clear that they had put a lot of care and attention into preparing them.
The service was excellent from start to finish. The staff was attentive, but not overbearing, and they were always ready to help us with any questions or requests we had. Our dishes arrived quickly and were presented beautifully. The attention to detail in every aspect of the restaurant was evident, and it really made the dining experience that much more enjoyable.
Overall, I would highly recommend The Monk’s to anyone who loves Chinese cuisine or is looking for a new dining experience. The food is outstanding, the staff is friendly and attentive, and the ambiance is perfect for a cozy night out. Whether you are a Chinese food aficionado or just looking for a great meal, The Monk’s is definitely worth a visit

The restaurant is very beautiful, and the service is more than wonderful. There is a young man named Karim who is very kind, and his service is excellent

Had a togo order so not sure about service, but the food was pretty bad. chicken had an off texture, kind of rubbery and chewy, also had a bad aftertaste, naan was very stale as well. My boyfriend is sick today from the tiki masala. Do not recommend this place.

We were visiting Houston and stopped here for some Indo-Chinese. We ordered Chinese bhel, steamed momos, hakka noodles, chicken Sichuan rice, and American chopsuey. The experience was bad from the start. Water from the AC was dripping onto the table and into the food. We had to return the chopsuey and switch to chicken biryani, and even that was poorly made.
The food was clearly not fresh. It tasted sour to the point my jaw hurt, stale, and the momos had stuffing that had already gone bad. We are not people who waste food, but this was impossible to eat. Only edible thing was chinese bhel and thats the only item we were able to finish. You can see from the picture how much we left behind after only tasting it, yet we still paid the full bill.
What made it worse was the staff’s attitude. When I complained, the person just stared at me. No apology, no explanation. Running a food business is a responsibility, and serving spoiled food without any accountability is unsafe.
Do not be misled by the glowing reviews. I strongly suspect most of them are paid, because I can’t imagine anyone genuinely enjoying food served in this condition.

One of our favorite places for Indo Chinese food. The quantity is large for every dish that you get. We have always ordered online but visited once. The ambience is bright and vibrant. The service is fast and good. Our favorites include the manchow soup, tandoori chicken momos, hakka noodles and the manchurian.

It’s a really nice Indo Chinese restaurant and I’d highly recommend it. We ordered Chinese Bhel and Spicy Masala Noodles and both turned out to be delicious. They also have momos on the menu which we will try next time.

I love the little date i had with my boyfriend. The restaurant is very family friendly so not good if you want a quiet lunch break to eat. They have a nice comfortable seating area while you wait to be seated. I would come again to try more food. I highly recommend the Garlic Naan and if you love spicy food I suggest the Andhra Chicken Curry. 10/10
