What People Are Saying About Kam's Fine Chinese Restaurant

In Short – Houstonians who love Cantonese Chinese food and other traditional Asian stir-fry and vermicelli options would be hard-pressed to find a better combination of quality, attentive service and price than Kam's. The ho fan dish (wide egg noodles) is popular with the longtime regulars, as are Chinese garlic green beans and pan-fried pork dumplings. Despite its sparse decor, this Montrose neighborhood spot is consistently crowded for its dependable lunch and dinner fare.

Good but not Great

by notyoursmine at Citysearch

I used to love Kams, it was my favorite chinese restaurant.

The Veggie rolls are yummy, and won ton soup is great.

I love the Orange Beef, probably the best in the city.

My favorite food is General Tso's Chicken and they used to make the best in the city. Until they changed owners and now make it with dark meat. It's now greasy. :(

This makes me not want to eat at kams any longer.

The waiters are all over the place...stick to a group of tables. It seems so unorganized. You can be smoothered by them or they don't check on you for a long time. Again I associate this with new ownership, because Kams has not always been this way.

Let's look at quality not quantity!

  • Pros: Great Soup, Wonderful Veggie Rolls
  • Cons: Changed using white meat chicken for dark meat

5 stars? Let's be honest here.

Frequently I hang out/dine out in Montrose. Its a nice part of town. I have always driven by Kam's and thought that it looked like a classic Chinese restaurant worth trying. A few days ago I took my mind up on this offer.

It was lunch time and the first problem was that we had trouble parking. The parking lot in the back is also shared with a small apartment complex. So one way in is the same way out. We waited, and waited for the cars to get out.. Then we got in.

At first glance the place looks comfortable and welcoming as a restaurant. Our waitress was the same person who seated us. She brought me my Dr. Pepper in a can and we ordered the crab roll appetizers. They were excellent.

The problems started when the server began sitting at the table with another waiter or the manager. We would be there needing things and we were just left there. I ordered the sesame chicken. At first it tasted good. The fried rice wasn't great, but is Chinese fried rice ever great?

After eating a bit more of it, I noticed that the batter was very chewy and over fried. My mom had the chow mein and commented on how she did not enjoy it. The Won Ton soup was excellent and they hand you a huge tub of fortune cookies to take from.

It was a good value for lunch. Large portions, soup, vegetable roll, and meal included for $6.95. But I do not think I will be back.

As the old adage goes, looks can be deceiving.

  • Pros: Appetizers
  • Cons: Read on.

Favorite Chinese Restaurant in the City

by yankeenhouston at Citysearch

I love Chinese and have tried at least five other Chinese restaurants in Houston even though I've only lived here a couple of months, and this place is by far the best. Fabulous dumplings - the best I've had anywhere and great orange beef (though I have to admit, I've the kung pao is a little lackluster). Service is really fantastic - great attitude, great manners, and very attentive.
