Too much variation in quality these days. I love Pepper Twins and have been getting their food at least monthly since it opened... years ago. Although I order many different dishes, I cannot order from Pepper Twins or dine at Pepper Twins without ordering thefried spicy chicken cubes. The stuff is wonderfully addictive. Unfortunately something is going on in the kitchen and many timeslately that dish has come out painfully spicy and unbalanced. I can handle a lot of heat, but lately it is too much with notenough reward. Once the chicken seemed to be covered in very spicy chili oil that simply burned and did nothing to enhance theflavor. Plus the chicken was very oily. Several other times there has been so much shredded chili that it is hard to see thechicken. I feel like I am ordering a dish of very hot dried spicy chili skins and seeds that also happens to include chickeninstead of the opposite. The owner needs to sit down with the cooks and come to an agreement as to how the dishes must beprepared. Read more

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 soupinside. I ordered the Pepper Twin Chicken, it just tasted very Salty. No other flavors of anything else just Salt. I do notknow if this was just a fluke, but I will be back to order something else to get a better view of dishes. Location is beautifuland 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 notsure if they are just short staffed. Read more

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 usethat pepper that makes your tongue tingle type of spicy lol. Read more

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 weredelicious. We love the whole experience. From the fast and responsive service to the unique atmosphere where the views of theoaks and the other facing restaurant is just so peaceful. We definitely will come back and recommend to other. Read more
