About Uncle Zhou

Uncle Zhou is a Chinese Restaurant located at 8200 Preston Rd, Plano, TX 75024, USA, offering local users a taste of authentic Hunan Chinese cuisine. Based on customer reviews, this establishment appears to be a worthwhile culinary destination.

One reviewer, while noting they haven't been to China, felt that Uncle Zhou provides a genuinely authentic Hunan dining experience. A standout feature seems to be their hand-pulled noodles, described as having a perfect consistency and served steaming hot with bean sprouts and vegetables, accompanied by small scissors for easier eating. The dumplings are also praised for their simple yet perfectly steamed and seasoned preparation. For those seeking familiar options, the orange chicken was reported to be a satisfying choice.

Customers have found the prices to be reasonable and the portion sizes generous. The restaurant's setting is described as basic, which aligns with the price point and the presence of an open kitchen layout, allowing diners to observe the cooking process.

Despite a temporary issue with their POS system during one customer's visit, resulting in handwritten orders and understandably busy waitstaff with minimal service, the overall experience remained positive due to the quality of the food. This group of eight thoroughly enjoyed all the dishes they ordered, with a strong recommendation for the hand-pulled noodles, even highlighting the skill of the "well-trained Mexican lady" currently preparing them, alongside other Hispanic kitchen staff who are commended for their excellent work.

In summary, Uncle Zhou seems to be a highly recommended Chinese Restaurant in Plano, particularly for those seeking authentic Hunan flavors and expertly prepared hand-pulled noodles. With reasonable prices, good portions, and a glimpse into the kitchen, it's certainly worth a try for local Chinese food enthusiasts. You can contact them at (469) 929-6622 or mobile phone +1 469-929-6622 for more information.

Not having actually been to China, this place seems as if it is the real thing when it comes to authentic Hunan Chinese cuisine. The pulled noodles were a perfect consistency, served with small scissors, steaming hot and perfectly proportioned with bean spouts and vegetables. The dumplings were simple but perfectly steamed seasoned. My wife ordered the Orange Chicken and was not disappointed. Prices were reasonable and portions were good. The setting was basic, but fitting with the price and open kitchen layout of the restaurant. Certainly worth a try. The hand-pulled noodles are a must!

8 of us came for lunch. Their POS system are down, they have to taking order by hand written orders and check. All three waitress are super busy and very minimal service provided. But we fully understand their difficulties and help ourselves with like water and eating utensils . All the items we ordered were very good, very tasty. We highly recommend the hand pull noodles, even now is made by a well trained Mexican lady! And many kitchen staff also Hispanic personnel!, and they are doing a wonderful job. Highly recommended!

This Chinese restaurant is truly exceptional. The food is authentic, and everything we tried exceeded expectations. The crispy chicken was perfectly cooked—juicy and flavorful, never dry. The soups were rich and satisfying, and the house specials were simply outstanding. The staff are warm and welcoming, adding to the enjoyable dining experience. With high-quality Chinese cuisine and excellent service, this is a place I would gladly return to again and again.

I wanted to try the hand drawn noodles and the ratings look promising. Food was actually pretty good. We ordered the beef hand drawn noodles, land hand drawn noodles, the dial oil hand drawn noodles, scallion pancakes and pan fried dumplings. It's a pretty big portion. Place was pretty big. Great for small or large parties and service was good. Servers were attentive and food came out pretty fast. I'd come back and try some more. Menus was pretty big. Till then, let's eat!!!

Terrific hand pulled noddles spot in Plano and worth the drive from Dallas. They don't take reservation and we walked in on a Friday evening to a small line of people. There is no hostess and you have to put your name on a notepad. They turn over tables quickly so fortunately it was not a long wait. The wait staff moves quickly but yet manages to be warm. We tried the following Friend hand pulled noodles - 6/5 absolutely delicious. Will go back for this Scallion pancakes- 5/5/ one of the best we have had Pork dumplings - 4/5 good but not great Dragon eggplant - 3/5 this is a looker, but the sauce is too sweet and makes the tempura batter gooey. Will not order again There are the usual dishes from Americanized Chinese restaurants like General Tsao and Kung Pao, but I will encourage people to try things that they are less familiar with. This is a good place for that. We will definitely be back and try other hand cut noodle dishes. Highly recommended!
