Ordered the chicken fried rice it was a little greasy but flavorful. Customer was good. I was even blessed with a military discount. No thrill restaurant with plenty of seasoning.

This was my first time ordering egg rolls, I attempted to eat it in the car but it was so greasy my tongue turned numb & throat was scratched also drenched my paper towel!! I went back in quietly & kindly to show them.The 2 younger girls @ the register were very nice but the older lady ( maybe manager, owner) was so offended!! Loudly saying “ we change grease everyday “!! Then she started walking to the back while still putting on a show?!?! I just walked out while SMH ….from one business owner to another, I rather let an establishment know instead of writing a bad review, as nice and as quiet as I was , she was still obviously irritated by ….ME …… Constructive criticism should be welcomed especially if coming from a genuine, professional consumer it is pivotal in running any successful business.

I am a passionate Orange Chicken fan. Today I was in search of a new place in the ongoing search for great Orange Chicken, and have found an incredible place. One of the best (and likely the best) I have found here. Why? - it has just the right amount of breading so that majority is actually chicken! The chicken is moist, soft, flavorful and overall delicious. Don’t even try to compare this dish to Panda Express … it is really a day and night comparison. Thanks TJames for the 5 star Orange Chicken dish. The price is reasonable and staff is great too. Keep the dish as is and will be back soon, and an advocate for you! :). I am sure the other dishes as just as good.

We have had TJames delivered and picked up many orders to bring home for dinner. The food is always great and portions are perfect. I took my mom there for lunch. It was my first time to eat in the restaurant. I was amazed (but not surprised) how much better the food was in the restaurant. I highly recommend eating in the restaurant. The service is amazing, And the food is so good. Definitely 5 Stars from me. ??

Best Chinese food in Houston, and incredibly priced (especially for lunch specials). Remember back in the day when you could get Chinese take out and not break the bank? It’s good to have those times back.The portions are HUGE. rarely do we finish our meals and we always have some for later/next day.Everything tastes fresh, and it’s very delicious. The ambiance is great too. They always have cool acoustic/vocal covers of popular songs playing and it’s a really chill vibe.This is our permanent Chinese food spot, we won’t go anywhere else!
Love this neighborhood gem! The owner is wonderful and our food is always tasty. I’ve only tried a few items off their menu (in a creature of habit) but their pork egg rolls are the best I’ve had in many years. Kung Pao chicken is my go-to, and it’s the right amount of spice and a generous portion. I highly recommend you stop in.

I ordered a pickup and was ready in like 5 minutes. The food was really delicious and large quantities that we ate it over 2 days. I liked the nodels the most. The rice was ok, my only complaint about it is it felt plain. Mostly rice and chicken and beef. Didn't have veggies like the noodles. Overall would order from them
