A MUST TRY - foodie heaven. This place is deliciously authentic. We had dinner here tonight and we are already looking forward to returning. Their dumplings and noodles are made in-house. We shared our dishes family-style and with the generous portions, we still had plenty of leftovers. The sweet tea was also tasty. There is plenty of parking and it is very clean. We also had the chicken fried rice - so good! This place is a gem! read more

Came here with my family for lunch around noon om a Sunday. We were the only table there and more tables were coming in by the time we left and to go orders. My sister ordered the beef noodle and pork soup dumplings. She said everything was really good. I don't eat pork, but I tried her soup and the broth and beef were amazing. I ordered the spicy shrimp and I rate it a 9/10. My son liked his chicken fried rice. I had to order a regular entree because that do not have a kid menu. The only reason why it wasn't a 5 is because the service was slow. There was only one person on all tables. Will Def be back to try other menu items. read more

delicious hidden gem in Spring with an abundance of vegetarian options! i ordered the general tsos tofu with noodles (instead of rice) and it was delicious! the general tsos sauce was different from any other i've had- its tangy but still delicious and you can tell everything is hand crafted. the noodles are very bouncy and delicious. the portions are generous. this is definitely worth the drive. my favorite way to end the meal is with the chocolate baos- they are flaky on the outside, but soft, warm, and gooey on the inside. there is plenty of parking. the inside is very clean and inviting. read more

OMG authentic soup dumpling (xiao long bao) foodies unite here at Noodle Kitchen. Searched out on Yelp on my way home after airport IAH. It's not on the way home for most people, but an indirect stop is a must for foodies. This is foodie food. Ordered the chicken soup dumplings. Comes with 6, in individual tin cups. When they remove the bamboo lid, lean forward and breathe in the smell of the fresh noodle. You'll want to savor that while they cool; it's the fresh daily homemade noodle. Then make that small bite into the noodle and slurp out the soup. Wow is the only response there! Lastly, chew into the dough to open the noodle and delight in the ground chicken and such inside. A lovely sauce comes with for this part. It was so good, I decided to also order the pork soup dumplings and try them before taking the rest home. Pork and chicken equally great. They are beautifully sculpted and expertly prepared. This is a must go. I'll drive a half hour to Noodle Kitchen for these soup dumplings-no problem! Beautiful food for the eyes, and delicious in the soul. Go. Maybe next time I'll get over the craze for the soup dumplings and order another dish! ------ Real: - friendly - excellent service - the spoon is the right size for the soup dumplings (don't ya hate when it's too big or worse, too small!) Bonus: - relaxing atmosphere - price is right - worth the drive - plenty of parking - not in Belaire ;) - say what you want about politics and China, but the food is healthy and good. Noodle Kitchen is the best of mainland China food. Yum! read more

I loved the soup dumplings and they had a number of different flavors. They also had a number of different hand stuff dumplings. We got the 3 flavor combo, veggie, pork and chicken. They were tasty. The wantons in the soup were good, but I found that the broth had a heavy seafood flavor. Everything came out relatively fast. And it was really affordable. I would love to try this as take out to see how it stands up to the traveling down the road. read more

I loved this place! My Tonkotsu Ramen was delicious with thick noodles and a creamy broth. My Friends Ramen was good but in his words "no flavor just spice" . We had a nice waitress who was trying her best to accommodate us while also being a hostess and dealing with to go orders. Very nice people and small place so it doesnt feel crowded. (Yes, we had a lot of fun playing with our food) the Red bean bao made us giggle and happy, they came out the kitchen but I took them home in my tummy :) read more

Food here is good, although service is a bit lackluster. There's only one waiter and he does not understand much English--but you can get by with pointing. We ordered the pork xiao long bao which was super juicy and came out hot. They did not have soup spoons though, so we were struggling a bit to eat it. The spicy lan zhou beef noodle was not anything great and seemed to be missing some flavors. The cumin beef was super yummy and had lots of flavor. The beef was tender and the portion size was large. My favorite was definitely the lamb mixed noodle. It was an interesting combination of sweet, savory, and tomatoey but I loved it. Definitely the best dish we ordered. read more

My girlfriend invited me to lunch and I asked her to choose the place since she had an appointment at 3pm. She stumbled upon Noodle Kitchen while doing some research. I must say, this place is a hidden gem. I'm so glad she found Noodle Kitchen, it's so close to my home. If you are looking for typically Chinese food, like orange chicken and general tso chicken, I believe you are looking at the wrong place. Although they have those dishes here, they offer so much more! Plumped Xiao Long Bao and Peking duck! I find the xiao long bao were wrapped thinly (just how I like them) and filled with soup. The Peking duck comes in half or whole order and they do not offer the buns, instead they offered the thin pancakes to wrap the Peking duck. Save you a little bit of carbs! The restaurant was quiet with Chinese melodies songs. Clean and quick service. Spoke to the young waiter and he stated they have been open two years. This place is authentic Chinese cuisine! I definitely come back, especially for more XLB! read more

Food is really good. They have this restaurant in Lubbock and only Houston I believe. I was surprised that there was a dead bug (had to take another look at it and ask chat gpt if this was a bug -- which it did!).

So, picture this: It's a wild Saturday night, and after surviving what can only be described as an action-packed afternoon, the fam and I decided to embark on a culinary adventure. The mission? Chinese takeout from an uncharted restaurant territory, a place where no noodle has gone before in our household. Spoiler alert: Maybe we should've asked for recommendations or consulted a fortune cookie, because what unfolded was a culinary catastrophe of epic proportions! Now, let me preface this by saying, "With all due respect, Noodle Kitchen, this was NOT the noodle party we were expecting." We ordered an ensemble cast featuring Long Bao Dumplings (Pork), Beef Fried Noodle, Soup Dumplings, and Orange Chicken. But alas, it was a performance that left us with more disappointment than a failed magic trick. The Orange Chicken tried its best to salvage the evening, earning the title of "best of the bunch" by default. However, even this noble dish couldn't escape the clutches of culinary chaos. The crispy bits were staging a mutiny, abandoning ship faster than you can say "chopsticks," and the chicken pieces had a peculiar chewiness that left us questioning if we were dining on poultry or some mysterious hybrid. The meat was so white that the jury's still out on whether it was real chicken breast or a clever disguise of minced-up poultry with a breadcrumb coating. Oh, and did I mention the unexpected hickory-flavored encore? Because apparently, our Orange Chicken decided to put on a smoky show on the backend. A taste adventure, to say the least, scoring a 3.8 out of 5 on the "What did I just eat?" scale. Now, let's talk about the Beef Fried Noodle, or as I like to call it, the BFN - Big Food Nope. One bite into this dish, and it felt like I was chewing on culinary disappointment. It's as if the chef got carried away with the seasoning, sprinkling it on like confetti at the end and forgetting to let it mingle with the rest of the ingredients. Gritty, dry, and a beef cameo that was as bland as a high school graduation speech - not my idea of a flavor party. The Bao Dumplings and I decided to keep a safe distance from each other, judging by the fam's reaction. I mean, if a picture is worth a thousand words, their expressions were a Shakespearean tragedy. In conclusion, Noodle Kitchen, you've earned a one-way ticket to the "DO NOT EAT" list for 2024. May your culinary adventures be more delightful than mine. STAY FED, my friends! We know food!

Noodle Kitchen - What we could not eat ... just was not good :-( - Chinese Near Me - Spring, Texas

Small, clean and authentic Chinese noodle house with freshly made noodles. Service is decent although spotty at times and I'm not crazy about the tip suggestions of 20, 22 and 25% (just pay your staff/family livable wages), however, the food was very good. We started with 2 orders of the soup dumplings; one crab and one pork. They came out pretty quickly and were very good. The dumpling itself was tender and hot, but held together well enough to contain an ample amount of soup and meat. I could probably eat 4-5 orders of these on my own, they're so good and go down so easily. My next favorite dish was the hot oil spill noodles. Big, fat, thicc house made noodles nestled under sprouts, cilantro, some green bells, match stick carrots and broccoli, topped of course with lots of hot chili flake and oil. Tossed together it was a delicious, smoky, spicy, noodly mess of goodness. The only thing I would change is maybe adding some meat to it which I may ask for on the next one. Mongolian beef had generous portions of sweet and savory beef on top of fresh, chewy spaghetti noodles. Lastly was the spicy beef noodle soup which had a nice flavorful broth, generous amount of chili oil and spaghetti noodles. Lastly we had the chocolate bao for dessert. Came out piping hot, seems like a cinnamon sugar type of donut exterior with a hot, warm, chocolatey center (possibly Nutella). Very tasty treat. I would go back for dumplings and the hot oil spill noodles again and again. read more

I ordered through Uber eats so maybe in person the food is a bit different however the general Tsos chicken was very different from what I am used to. Their version of it simply isn't good. It's like string chicken if I were to describe it. I wasn't a fan of it at all. The beef braised soup was decent. The broth was good however the pics on Uber eats showed the beef to be bone in beef. This wasn't bone in. If it was bone in I suspect it would have been much better. Like I said this was ordered via Uber eats so I'll give them a shot if I am in the area and possibly update my review Solid 3 almost four starts. Once again stop in and give them a. Try you may love their style of general chicken. read more

We enjoyed our time at this family owed restaurant. Ordered soup dumplings, Mongolian beef and a spicy tonkatsu ramen. Everything was delicious except for the tonkotsu noodles. Seems like the food is made to be shared. This was way too much food for 2 people and we had leftovers. The soup dumplings were amazing. Fresh and tasty. The Mongolian beef had so much flavor and came with a side of white rice. The ramen was super bland, I added chili oil and sriracha from the table but still no flavor. The chili oil at the table was just not spicy at all. There was no wait to be seated and plenty of parking up front. We saw a lot of Uber eats sort of orders getting picked up. Looking forward to coming back and trying more items. read more

As we are still getting our feet wet with Chinese cuisine we decided to try Noodle Kitchen and play it safe with a couple appetizers to begin with not realizing that they were very filling. We got the crispy Peking duck bao it was nice and crisp on the outside, warm and filled with yummy goodness on the inside. 10/10 would recommend. Also got the steamed BBQ chicken bao (it was a special item) perfectly steamed. Nice texture, very soft yet slightly firm outside and flavorful chicken filling. 10/10 would recommend. The service was great. My husband and I went around lunch time and the staff was friendly and food came out fast and fresh! Can't wait to go back for the noodles these two selections were pretty filling. Our bill came out to around $25. 4.5/5very good read more

We ordered a ton of items: - chicken xlb: soupy, comes hot! - veggie baos: light, doughy, needs more filling - hot oil spill noodles: hand pulled noodles, legumes, chilli oil and crisps - crispy spicy shrimp: my fav! the flavors and bite was perfect and serving size was great - crispy spicy fish: same flavors as above but with fish fillet -- very soft and melty inside - boiled fish with sauce -- soft fish in a hot/sour sauce - shrimp fried rice: egg, lots of shrimp and delicious fried rice - chocolate bao - heavenly, chocolate bursts in your mouth Overall a good dining experience and food was delicious! Good for a casual dinner with groups :) read more

This place is in a sparsely populated strip off Louetta and Kuykendahl, next to Ceviche Ria (excellent ceviche). There aren't many options if you're looking for this type of food without going to Chinatown or other Asian areas. The meat dumplings were OK, but I found the filling to be a bit too crumbly/grainy. The hand-pulled noodles are excellent and would highly recommend orrdering. They're thick, wide and bouncy. The scallion pancakes are also a must -- perfectly flaky and crispy. And to end your meal, please do yourself a favor and order these chocolate baos. They're fried, dusted with sugar, with melted chocolate and chocolate chips inside. I'm very happy to have found this place and will absolutely return to try some of their other items. read more

The sweet and sour fish dish was good. It had a fluffy carbonated fry batter like the one for fish and chips. The sweet and slightly sour red sauce heavily coated the many fried pieces but didn't weight them down. There was only (1) chopped piece of steamed broccoli to decorate the dish. I wonder if it's because people throw away the vegetables or that's the type of dish it is. A tiny bowl of rice accompanies the dish. I think you may be able to request another bowl, but it may depend on your server. I asked my waiter, and I was able to get one for the other half of my dish that I was taking home. The sauce doesn't taste that good as leftovers. The spicy dumplings were steaming when they arrive at the table. It has a good mix of spices and vinegar. The dumplings were light and had delicate chewy skins. read more

Amazing food. Get the pecking duck bao! The server didn't realize I was Asian and tried to deter me from certain dishes. Though this could be off putting, it was appreciated.

I heard great things about this place, my family wanted to try it for a birthday dinner. Walking in, it feels like a hole in the wall place which can go either way of being really good or bad. Unfortunately it was bad for this place. Upon arrival we were told to sit where we wanted. We sat at a family style table. It looked clean from the distance but it wasn't. There was sauce marks on the table and the silverware even had dried food stuck to it. When we told the worker about the dirty table she grabbed a wet towel from a bucket sitting on the floor to clean. She puts the towel back in bucket and I realize the same bucket used to clean is same bucket that collects whatever is dirty on the table. Even though it was kind of new the chairs felt like they have been there for years. The window that shows part of the back, showed how messy or unorganized it was back there. Boxes of items most randomly stacked. The food was ok. I'm not sure if it's cause we choose the wrong kind of food but it wasn't great, maybe decent? Fried rice was heavy on the oil which left lot of grease at the bottom of plate. The sweet sour chicken was more breading than chicken. The dry fried greens beans would have been good if the spice level didn't overcome it. It may be good for those who like heavy spice but meh. The soup dumplings were good for the place. I think I overall the food was ok but the cleanliness was bothersome. read more

This place is great. You have to go with more than two people to be able to sample a wider variety of food. It was like Asian Dim Sum. You ordered several dishes at once but you can add more if you're still hungry or want some more variety. We will be going back. read more

One of the most authentic Chinese restaurants in North Houston. The xiao long bao truly impressed me, very generous with the meat filling and soup... delicious! We were given orange chicken on accident but we ended up still enjoying it! Very crispy and good balance of batter and chicken. The sauce wasn't overwhelmingly sweet and had a nice citrusy tang to it. I forgot to take a picture of the beef noodle soup but that was delicious as well. There was a good amount of noodles and beef, and the broth was spicy and savory. I'm so glad this place is near my work because I will definitely be coming back to try more! read more

A few of my friends were in town and were inexperienced with Chinese food. Of course, I had to find the most authentic China restaurant in town as Panda Express will not work. Noodle Kitchen was the perfect spot with its loud and bustling crowds and the lazy susans for a long evening of family portion dishes. The atmosphere and decor could have fooled me into thinking I was at a local restaurant out in Guangzhou. We ordered as much as we can from the menu to provide a vibrant experience for our guests. From Pork, chicken, and crab soup dumplings to fried beef, pork bao, mapo tofu, hot and sour fish, scallion pancakes and Mongolian beef, each dish was as it SHOULD be. With the perfect amount of spice in the mapo tofu and the flavor oozing out of the hot and sour fish dish, I was extremely proud I was able to provide this for our guests. My only gripe was the soup dumplings. The skin was overly thick and chewy. It distracted me from the flavors of the meat and soup as I was wrestling with it in my mouth. I am not sure if the standard for the skin should be thinner, like a Din Tai Fung variety? The service was lightning fast. Huge shoutout to our waiter who was practically running a marathon to make sure his tables got everything they needed. Tips are much appreciated there! read more

Service was great, restaurant is cute and clean. Best Xiao long bao I have tasted, very fresh flavor. 3 ingredient steamed dumplings along with the cute piggy custard baos were amazing. The braised beef noodle soup was good although a bit salty but a little rice vinegar would fix that problem. I am already looking forward to eating there again soon. read more

Don't come here looking for basic or boring food... Come here to find authentic Chinese cuisine, expertly prepared and rich in taste & textures. This is the type of meal that's hard to find outside of Chinatown. Stopped in for a nonchalant mid-week meal and was impressed by the hospitality & flavor! While the establishment itself is casual & low-key (perfect for an any-day-of-the-week sort of visit), the food is spectacular. I'm thrilled to find hand-pulled noodles and soup dumplings (xiao long bao) north of the city... It was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last. Everything was delicious!!! ...I'll be coming back to try the Peking Duck next. read more

The food was amazing ! Really great atmosphere. The staff are really nice. The dumplings are my favorite.

3.6 stars rounding up to 4. Soup Dumplings/XLB - 6 for $10 [3.75/5] Nice thin skin, filled to the brim with soup, and a good size. The flavor was decent but nothing that sets this place apart from other places. Spicy Lan Zhou Beef Noodle Soup - $14 [3/5] Nice that the noodles were hand pulled but they weren't as chewy as I like them; maybe overcooked? Beef was nice and soft but you don't get that much. Soup was a bit on the bland side. Half Duck - $29 [4/5] Duck was good flavor but seemed a little small on the quantity for the price. Overall, everything tasted good and the flavor profiles were authentic. There was just a little something missing from each dish. read more
