    Spicy Shrimp
    Jarvas H.

    Had a taste for some good Asian cuisine and glad I was able to see a recent TikTok regarding this place. The review definitely did not sell this place short. Parking was plentiful, restroom area was clean, service was excellent, and the food was exceptional. I've passed this place several times and it was a for sure diamond in the rough. Now the Eats!!! I ordered the Fried Dumplings and Cheesy Rangoons to start which had the best crisp flavor ratio. For main entrees we ordered the Spicy shrimp, the General TSO's chicken, & the BBQ Pork Fried Rice. Both entree's were prepared fresh, well seasoned, and gave the best combination of flavors. Kudos to the chef for making me a believer!! If you are in the Katy area you must give them a visit. Enjoy!!!

    I wish Spicy House was my house! After finding myself in Katy on another mission, we pulled up to Spicy House, anticipating some good Sichuan style cuisine. The ambiance inside of Spicy House is just what I like. Not too bright. Dim lights and music mixed with the sound of people enjoying their food and company. I really like the way the restaurant is decorated. There was a comforting vibe in there. The service was great. I was greeted immediately and shown to a seat right away. After perusing the menu for a bit. I ordered the Spicy Fish Slides and Red Chili Oil Dumplings for the table. The dumplings were really delicious and seasoned very well. I'm not a huge dumpling guy but I really enjoyed these. These were probably the best dumplings I've tasted in recent memory. With that being said... I have to warn you about the Spicy Fish Slides! You may become addicted! These fish slides were so flavorful and crispy. I couldn't get enough! Forget Lay's potato chips, there is no way you can eat just one of these fish slides. I barely wanted to stop at one plate. The outside was crispy but the inside was tender and juicy. The oil/sauce on the fish and veggies is intense and incredible. The peppercorns make my lips numb and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thinking about it right now makes my mouth water and want to go get some right now. The server recommended I try the spicy shrimp next time, since I enjoyed the fish so much. I will take her up on that the next time I return. I will need a plate of fish and one of shrimp. Spicy House was a hidden gem to me but I won't keep the secret to myself. Go to Spicy House and experience the spice of life!

    Coming here for the first time! We ordered several dishes! Personally, I ordered mapo tofu with mild spiciness but the dish was very spicy plus pepper corn was pretty strong If they make less spice and pepper corn then that would be much better for my taste but I like the flavor! Their portion is generous and plenty! My friends ordered general tofu and sour potatoes stuffs and they are good! Plenty tables to serve people here and the vibe is nice! It doesn't look like an authentic Chinese environment but more like modern style! I'll come back again! :) But hope they make foods a bit less spicy Cheers

    Fried Pork Dumpling
    Kaila S.

    We frequent here about once a month, but we always end up getting take out. It's one of the places that I know my Togo order will be fulfilled accurately. Industry wide, I've noticed Togo orders have the most inaccuracies so that is always a deciding factor when choosing somewhere to get take out. I LOVE the tea smoked duck, and red chili oil dumplings. But I also haven't disliked anything on the menu. I'd recommend this restaurant for sure!

    General Tso's Chicken

    Really good food and service. The dumplings were very well done. The General Tao's was good. Solid place for good Chinese food!

    Two words: Absolutely spectacular! I hadn't eaten in a few days (long story) and I found myself in…read moreKaty on a Friday so I did a quick Yelp search and came upon this place. As I dug deeper, I read Jando's glowing review word-for-word and found myself salivating. Well, I ventured out to S. Mason for lunch, found the place easily, appreciated the ample and free parking, and walked in. I had read before that they used to be closed on Tuesdays and Saturdays, but now they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays but open for dinner on Saturdays. (See my photos.) Anyhow, we walked in and found the place homey. Nothing fancy - just a nice, clean, homey Malaysian restaurant. Not too big, and not too small. We placed our order of roti canai, stir fried flat rice noodles, seafood sizzling tofu, and topped it off with a Malaysian milk tea. Oh my - we were satisfied and stuffed as a party of 2. We ended up boxing up almost 40% of the meal. The roti was near perfection - crispy, hot, flaky. The dipping sauce was perfectly seasoned with the right amount of heat. It included chunks of chicken and potato. You must absolutely order this one. I love me some stir fried flat rice noodles so we got that one with chicken. Overall, it was excellent. Portions were a tad smaller than I would like for the price. Also it could use a little bit of hot sauce so we asked for a side of sriracha which they gladly and quickly brought. The sizzling tofu - OMG so good. I can't even explain it. I just love it so much and the portions are huge. I'm not sure what the vegetable flavor would taste like but we tried the seafood one and have no regrets. Lastly the milk tea was just because we felt like splurging and it was also a great decision. The tea flavor itself is deep and the overall drink is very nice. We got it iced. And an honorable mention - we ran into Uncle Chin (at least we assume it was Uncle Chin) and told him his food was amazing. I think he really appreciated it. He seems like a super nice guy and I want his business to do really well. If that wasn't Uncle Chin then we talked to a random person and raved about the food... Many thanks for Jando for the raving review that convinced me to try this place. Loved it and would absolutely come back as soon as possible!

We also ordered a noodle dish that I forgot to take a picture of. One thing to note: I wouldn't recommend using the restroom if you can avoid it. My little one really had to go and it wasn't clean at all or well kept which was a bit of a downside especially with a kid. Overall, we had a great experience and I'm glad we finally tried it.

Service was spot on, quick, and we got our food in what felt like maybe a few minutes. We started off with pork dumplings for the kiddo, which he INHALED in moments. For entrees, we split the orange chicken and the Spicy/Numbing Pot. The orange chicken was spot on. The sauce was sweet but not painfully sweet or thick/clumpy. Really nice orange flavor and tender chicken. So much fun eating it since it is gluten free! Our kiddo also devoured this dish! Mild - not spicy at all! The Spicy Numbing Pot, while a little oily/greasy on the bottom, was still delicious! I appreciated that it wasn't knock your socks off spicy - it had a solid kick, and so flavorful. I love eating dishes with Sichuan Pepper; it has a lot of flavor, and the tingling is so much fun. This dish was perfect with some rice, and it wasn't too heavy for the middle of the day. The prices were really reasonable, and there was enough food for leftovers which we ate later that night. Our only regret is not getting the duck appetizer, but we will be sure to get it next time. We can't wait to go back, and Tiger Noodle will happily be in regular rotation for our family! You can't go wrong!
