Unexpectedly Kid-friendly! Friendly, efficient staff anticipated our needs and offered us a cup with lid and plastic utensils for my little one as soon as we settled- JennNovember 16, 2011Chinese soup dumplings, one of the best in town. $7.95 gets you a basket of succulent house-made soup dumplings with a broth that is incredibly rich yet not greasy. Galleria area, so convenient!
Houston PressAugust 12, 2014In a shopping center full of crappy fast food and ultra-expensive chains, E-Tao is a welcome happy medium: a low-key, low-cost restaurant with great food. Read more
Fernando CovasMarch 31, 2015Try the Dry Vancouver Calamari and the Dry Vancouver Chicken Wings. Really delicious! Skip the crispy eggplant (frozen carrot pea and corn mix? Really?).
Rachel MercerJanuary 1, 2012Off-menu Mao Po Tofu is delicious and a mandatory for every visit. The Dim Sum platter is also great for Asian food newbies and general first-timers.
Patty RathbunSeptember 20, 2014One of the best chinese restaurants in Houston. The soup dumplings are to die for.
Carlos RomanApril 13, 2015Thur 4-9-15 stopped by the front counter to buy some orange juice, $3 but then I got my statement I was charged $6. Buyer beware because there's someone who helps themselves to add their own tip.
Best asian food in the area.. By far!! Everything on the menu is good! Especially the dumplings.
CultureMap Houston ManagerMarch 27, 2012E-Tao boasts several off-menu specials for those in the know to ask for. There's also online ordering and delivery.
Jeremey BarrettApril 23, 2013Szechuan dumplings, scallion pancakes, and wonton soup! Great meal, delicious food.
Elaine YeungFebruary 17, 2013Great Chinese food, especially considering that it is inside a mall. A bit on the pricey side.
Harrison BrokerJune 22, 2015The soup dumplings are insanely good. Get them every time 😋 (use a bowl)
Allen ArcadeSeptember 19, 2011This place is not quite authentic but not quite a gringo Chinese place either. It's certainly a lot better than what you'll find In the mall food court!
Julianne AOctober 4, 2011Their specialty is the soft shell crab fried rice and it's as good as it sounds.
