10 min pick up every time I've ordered from them. Food has been fantastic every time.

Stopped by for the lunch special and was surprised that thier lunch special did not include an egg roll or soup only a canned drink. That was just an observation. Prices are typical to Chinese American establishments and I was pleased to see a variety of tofu dishes on thier menu as opposed to other similar establishments. Location was clean and food tasted good but could've had a bit more flavor infusion. Overall: liked it just not a spot I would go out of my way to visit.

Ni Hao is my favorite Chinese restaurant I've ever found. I live in Dallas now, and I can't find a single restaurant the nearly measures up. Every time I visit my parents, Ni Hao is a must-eat for me. The service is quick, food is delicious, and the family at Ni Hao is incredibly kind and greats you with a smile every time you walk in. Truly a perfect neighborhood Chinese restaurant, and I wish I could find a similar spot in Dallas!

This is a great place for fast takeout. They have 3 booths inside where you could sit and eat, but you're probably better off taking the food with you. Our food was ready in just 10 minutes and the portions were huge! Everything we ordered was wonderful. We had orange chicken, sweet and sour chicken, and chicken lo mein. We also tried the krab rangoon, which was tasty, but I would have liked a bit more filling in each one. Everything with a 10% tip was only $50, and it fed an adult and two teenagers for dinner, plus we have enough left for 1-2 lunches for 3 people. The large sizes are truly large! Each could feed two adults for dinner easily. The great food combined with the ridiculously fast preparation time and great value mean we will definitely be back. See my pictures for the full menu and prices as of June 2024.
