Authentic AF and incredible in everyway! The newly opened Noodle Kitchen is what the northside has needed for years! I am so happy for owners Vasilia and Iris, seeing a brand new restaurant packed with happy customers in their first week of being open. Well deserved, because this is the real deal.. handmade to order soup dumplings, regular dumplings & bao of all sorts and hand pulled noodles by Chef David.
We ordered a bunch of meni items, and if you know my son and I, dumplings and char siu bao are favorites and a must order. Guess what guys, we don't have to drive to Houston, Bellaire or Katy to get our fix.
The Soup Dumplings are phenomenal! We got the Xiao Long Bao (6) Soup Dumplings. We chose Pork over chicken. We were both so happy eating these, we had smiles on our faces. We knew we were in trouble, because we are probably going to be here quite a bit.
Next up was the Colorful Combo Dumplings (2Pc Chicken, 2Pc Beef, 2Pc Veg). All of them were excellent, but the beef was our favorite with the chili oil sauce to dip them in.
Got an order of Siu Mai, a dim sum favorite (pork and shrimp steamed dumplings). Pretty good stuff. You can actually see Annie and Fang their dumpling and bao makers through a window.
Another star of the night was the Cha Siu Bao(4) (Pork Barbecue Bao). I was transported back to my family's favorite dim sum restaurant back in Hong Kong when I was 10 years old. Winning to have Bao of this quality so close and in my home town. I might have had a little tear of joy eating this perfect Bao.
The owners currently are the waitstaff, so if you go, please please be patient with them, like every restaurant needing to hire more bodys. The two of them were running with a purpose, friendly and I could tell they wanted to do their best. I have to let you know that this is not fast food, but well worth the wait. The food quality and freshness is outstanding.
We ran into a few other regular foodies too from the group. Another Tomball restaurant owner was there, and she helped the two young owners bus and wiped down some tables.
I have to come back soon to try more, because they have hand pulled noodles. We got to see the Chef David in the kitchen and got an amazing video of him doing his craft. The head Chef is Wen and can't wait to try more of his recipes.
We were both so impressed with this place, they are already a front runner for Nick's Local Eats Best New Restaurant Spring, TX.
Definitely the best Soup Dumplings in the Spring /Woodlands area and 100% the best Char Siu Bao around!
Congratulations to Vasilia, Iris and staff. You all are going to rock this town! We have new dumplings queens in town!
