Still can't dine in here but the food is excellent :) This is a CASH ONLY place. They DO NOT accept credit/debit cards.
In my opinion, it's good tasting authentic style Chinese food at a good price.
Chicken fried rice was terrible. Flavorless and smelled horrible, the veggies cooked in with it like onions didn’t even have flavor.
May House has fantastic Asian food at a cheap price and VERY generous portions. They take **CASH ONLY**. They only offer take-out for the time being but the venue itself is very nicely decorated and clean.The menu is extensive, and could be quite overwhelming - so I recommend having an idea of what you want before you head in to order. The bulk of their dishes cost no more than $10.I recommend the Roast Egg ($3) as an appetizer, and the Korean Spicy Noodle Soup ($10).If you are looking to get some cheap, fantastic and authentic Asian food on the go - I highly recommend May House!
Ate here when I went to college a decade ago. The mustard pork is unforgettable.
Can’t miss the Tofu-bao intestine here, it’s intestine, but so good.
Great Chinese food! I've never eaten at the restaurant (covid) but the food is always delivered so quickly. We love the potstickers, and everything is a good price.
Very unfortunate. Had been my favorite Asian cuisine in Ames for 20 years, but probably won't be going back. One of the things I used to really like about May House is all of the traditional dishes. The last time my wife ordered something from the traditional side of the menu they tried to dissuade her from ordering it and said she probably wouldn't like it. This time when I tried to, he flat out told me "No", and then said I should get fried rice or sweet and sour. I've been a chef for 15 years and know perfectly well what I'm getting when I order bak kut teh or yuxiang. Also, they started doing takeout only when covid started, and are still supposedly only doing take out. Even though, tables are set, and when we walked in he asked " for here or to go?" I said to go, but asked if they had started doing dine in again yet. He said "No, only to go". So apparently maybe just only to go for me, because it was pretty obvious that someone is dining in. Oh well I guess. The food that they allowed me to get was very average and obviously made with frozen pre-chopped vegetables, so I'll be trying the place next door next time. Too bad they are playing these ridiculous games.
Best garlic chicken and egg rolls in town!
I love the food here. And service was amazing
