This is a top notch Chinese restaurant. For some reason they weren’t that busy?
The location was clean, the staff were kind and friendly.
We loved all of our dishes that we ordered. The spicy dishes were indeed spicy, so beware if you don’t like spice. Thank you for bringing quality Chinese food to Houston!
Right now I will leave this as 4 stars, but will update to 3 or 5 after a second visit.
As of now they have my favorite Soup Dumplings in Houston. The wrapping is light and not chewy. The filling has a lot of flavor and they actually have soup inside.
I ordered the Pepper Twin Chicken, it just tasted very Salty. No other flavors of anything else just Salt. I do not know if this was just a fluke, but I will be back to order something else to get a better view of dishes.
Location is beautiful and plenty of parking. Staff was not very present, just ran in and out from kitchen. It was not full at all when I went, so not sure if they are just short staffed.

Spicy dishes! Food tastes fresh. It was my first time there and I will be back to try some other dishes. All dishes we ordered were good, flavorful, fresh. Service was quick and good. White rice was a little lacking but other than that, yum! Oh they use that pepper that makes your tongue tingle type of spicy lol.

Great place - stopped in for dinner after a long drive Love this restaurant! Parking is easy. Inside is large. Never had to wait. Service was friendly and good. Food is family style. The green beans are delicious.The pepper twins chicken is tasty with a nice kick. Dumplings and Hot&Sawer soup,Watch out for the green peppers if you can't handle spice.
We have been to a few pepper twins locations and this one is the biggest of them all.

One of the best Chinese food places in Houston, similar quality to Hu’s Cooking cheaper. Only problem is that they NEVER pick up phone call for orders and good luck with any online ordering system. If you go to the Kirby location, there is never more than a few tables there (and yet they still don’t answer phone calls). Just go and order and wait in the car and it’ll be ready in 10 min. I order from here on a weekly basis and doesn’t matter if it’s weekday or Sunday night, no one ever picks up phone.

Great place - stopped in for dinner after a long drive. The house special chicken was tasty with numbing spice, and the soup dumplings were hot and flavorful. Good service from the team on a busy night.

I grew up in Sichuan, I thought I couldn’t find a authentic sichuan restaurant in Houston until I went to Pepper Twins. The flavor was exactly what I remember from my childhood. The amount of food was generous! I get fed up to my throat and I can still have leftover to go for another one or two meals at home????

If you want huge serving plates of tasty food this is the place to go if you want Chinese food. The food has a kick to it and it doesn't slow you down like some Chinese food. It's a very cozy spot and spacious when you sit. It's worth going back and it's a go to spot for me.

Love this restaurant! Parking is easy. Inside is large. Never had to wait. Service was friendly and good. Food is family style. The green beans are delicious. The duck buns are amazing. The pepper twins chicken is tasty with a nice kick. Watch out for the green peppers if you can't handle spice.

We have been to a few pepper twins locations and this one is the biggest of them all. We were greeted by a very charming and friendly waitress and she introduced us to this honey roasted duck and Osso Buco Berkshire Pork Fore Shank, and they both were delicious. We love the whole experience. From the fast and responsive service to the unique atmosphere where the views of the oaks and the other facing restaurant is just so peaceful. We definitely will come back and recommend to other.
