Noodles near Missouri City, TX

“Orient cafe is usually consistent, good egg rolls, the best wonton soup, and most of the menu is really good. My favorites are chicken with string beans, chicken or shrimp fried rice, and orange chicken.

Although today we had, and I tried the orange beef, orange chicken (don’t mind the quantity, starting eating before I could take the pic😅) and wonton soup.“

“Tucked away in Alief, where Houston’s Chinatown has grown into one of the city’s richest food destinations, you can find some of the most comforting and authentic dishes outside of Vietnam. Alief has long been known as a hub of cultural diversity, where restaurants aren’t just businesses—they’re extensions of family kitchens and traditions carried across oceans. From Cantonese barbecue shops to Vietnamese noodle houses, this neighborhood has shaped Houston’s reputation as a food city.

Quan Ba Ky is one of those gems. I came specifically to try their Bún Suông, a specialty noodle soup you don’t see everywhere. The broth is light yet deeply flavorful, with just the right balance of savory and sweet. The star, of course, is the shrimp paste “suông,” shaped into tender little patties that hold a delicate bite. Paired with rice vermicelli, herbs, and crisp vegetables, the soup feels both refreshing and comforting—perfect for Houston’s unpredictable weather.

What makes this bowl stand out isn’t just the taste, but also how it connects to the wider story of food in Alief. Dishes like Bún Suông remind me that Chinatown isn’t only about dim sum or pho—it’s a crossroads of flavors, histories, and immigrant experiences that have come together to create something uniquely Houston. I’m proud to live in the heart of it, surrounded by so much culture and incredible food.

If you’re looking for something beyond the usual bowls of pho, Bún Suông at Quan Ba Ky is absolutely worth the visit.“

“I'm Hui, and I don't eat pork. My friend took me to this restaurant. Their beef, chicken, and lamb are sourced from halal slaughterhouses. I had braised beef noodles and a Chinese-style beef burger. The burger was so delicious I forgot to take a picture. The noodles were the best beef noodles I've ever had. Are the noodles made fresh by machine? The ingredients are only water and flour. No other ingredients are added, making it very healthy and fresh! I topped up my $200 membership card and received rewards. I'll definitely bring my family here often.“

“This place is a must try if you are in the area. It was delicious.“

“Food is very very good and always hot, recommend the wonton soup!!!!!! Lady is very very nice and quick to serve us, and the electronic ordering is much more efficient as she doesn’t have to walk around that much except for delivering food or refilling drinks. 10/10 and would highly recommend“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“This is the best place ever I love the pepper chicken omg really thankful they are in Gainesville! Amazing!“

“Went there for crawfish & shrimp! I can say it was very delicious, the pricing was fair ! I love that they're open late & the food is fast. The crawfish were very much so great sizes I recommend calling ahead to see the mkt rate other than that it was good“

“Not only was the atmosphere and service 5 stars, the food was fresh and delicious. The flavor was fabulous.“

“Food was amazing and the server Linda was sweet and knowledgeable. I had the spicy garnet with chicken and it was just the right amount of heat, not overly hot but got the job done“

“Pretty good food!

Bo ne $16.99 - reasonably priced. Decent portion of protein; some pieces were a bit chewier. The bread was great (fresh. Crispy on the outside. Soft on the inside). I like that it comes with 2 sunny side eggs rather than 1 egg and spam (i don't like spam).

Coconut Coffee $5.99 - really good! Would get it again! We also liked the Thai Tea, but this surprised us how good it was.

We came here because our other bo ne spot (Simply Pho & Bo Ne) is closed Tuesdays.

We would return. We don't like driving out to Katy Asia Town or Bellaire.“

“After reading all the reviews, I chose to take my sister here before a doctors appointment. The food and service was incredible. Prompt service, seating, and ordering. Excellent fish sauce, which is important to me, since I can't stand peanut sauce, though my sister loved it. The summer rolls were tight, full and did not fall apart until the last bite. crispy and delicious spring rolls. Just an excellent experience from start to finish. The fish sauce was so good, I wanted to purchase 2 3oz containers to go, and I'm still not sure if I was charged for them. I didn't care, and I didn't check.“

“It was pretty good, bowl of pho was flavorful and oxtail bowl was huge for the price I would recommend them.“

“Their beef soup is delicious.“

“Great food! all delicious.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at the best Chinese rice noodle house in Chinatown Houston and it was an exceptional experience. This noodle house offers an array of mouthwatering appetizers that set the stage for an unforgettable meal. The star of the show was undoubtedly the Chinese rice noodles. They were perfectly cooked, with a delightful chewy texture that left me craving more. The wide variety of noodle options allowed for a customized dining experience, catering to all tastes. We tried their signature items like the chicken soup rice noodle and the Mala rice noodle soup. The appetizers were a highlight, with an extensive selection that included sticky rice cake, marinated pig feet, and cucumber salad. The sticky rice cake was a delightful blend of sweet and savory, with a satisfyingly chewy consistency. The marinated pig feet were tender and flavorful, a true delicacy. The cucumber salad provided a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors of the other dishes, with a delightful balance of tanginess and crunch. The service at JiBeiChuan noodle house was impeccable, and the staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with family and friends. Overall, this brand new Chinese rice noodle house is a must-visit for anyone looking to savor authentic and delicious Chinese cuisine. The combination of delectable rice noodles and a tantalizing selection of appetizers ensures an unforgettable culinary journey. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu. And since it’s a authentic Chinese franchising noodle house, I don’t have to fly back to China to enjoy it. Highly recommended and will definitely come back.“

“1st time here. The service was good. I ordered the sweet & spicy shrimp and pork dumplings.And beef noodles. With Strawberry tea. They give you water infused with lemon.on the side. All In all , food was good along with the service. If your in the mood for dumplings this is the spot. They have a huge variety.“

“Great food and service. Would definitely eat here again, when in Houston“

“I had the Shoyu truffle ramen and it was probably the best ramen I've ever had in the US. I was born and raised in Japan, and this reminded me of being back home. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing as well. I am definitely going to be back again soon.“

“Trendy dumpling was an amazing restaurant with awesome service and even more amazing food. I would highly recommend this super cool restaurant. -Fynn, 10 yrs old“

“100 % recomendada La comida 🍲 súper rika“

“How have I never heard of this restaurant before now? I loved everything about it, from the connecting wine bar with a supreme menu to the friendly counter service in the restaurant, low key neighborhood vibe, and the most comforting Italian food in the city. This will undoubtedly be my new go-to place.“

“Cool little Thai cafe...absolutely amazing flavors reminds me of my travels east. The beef curry was outstanding , pad Thai was really good, eggrolls perfect. The Thai tea was the best I ever had. If your in the area I'd strongly recommend stopping by this authentic Thai restaurant!! Oh and the owners and employees here are really friendly. What a warm enjoyable place for lunch.“

“very excellent Thai food 👌“

“My sister and I did the Omakase, and amazing is a massive understatement. This was hands down the best sushi I have ever had, and I will happily pronounce that I believe this is the best sushi resturant in the city of Houston. Angela, our waitress was so wonderful, and an aboslute joy the entire evening. Chef Andy's presentation and flavors for each dish were beyond immaculate. I cannot recommend Sasaki enough, and if you're wanting the best Omakase experience in the city, this is the spot to go.“

“Delicious food. Full you up. I love the soup.“

“I enjoyed my experience here so much! First reason why is because the company I had with me was amazing however the food, service, and environment made everything BETTER!! The manager Sarah did a wonderful job making sure everything was running smoothly and our waiter, Victor who tended to all of our needs with no issues. I most certainly will be coming back and bringing more people.😊“

“I came to YukDaeJang one evening near closing time. The employees didn't look like they want to serve me. There were a couple of tables of customers there. But they probably had a long day. I don't blame them. Food was ok. The waitstaff took wrong order. But it's ok.“

“We had our first wonderful experience at the restaurant, and my kids absolutely adored it! The service was impressively fast, ensuring that we didn't have to wait long for our meals. The food was delicious, with each dish expertly prepared and bursting with flavor. We also loved the decor and ambiance inside the restaurant; the view was stunning and created a warm, inviting atmosphere that made our dining experience all the more enjoyable.“

“A Hidden Gem That Proves Why It’s One of the Top 3 Best Chinese Restaurants in Houston
Flavor House (味来人家) has been around for three years, and honestly, it has become my go-to whenever I crave traditional, authentic Chinese food. But recently, they leveled up with a brand-new seafood series that feels like a “Crawfish World” collided with Chinese flavors — and let me tell you, it’s something you simply cannot miss.

Instead of crawfish season, imagine feasting on fatty blue crab, jumbo Gulf shrimp, marinated cucumber, golden potatoes, and savory sausage — all drenched in their signature garlic sauce. Whoever came up with this combination is a genius. That cucumber soaks in the garlic flavor perfectly, and when you add the potatoes and sausage, every bite is addictive. I ordered the entire seafood platter in different flavors, and it was so good I’ve already gone back multiple times.

But here’s the real kicker: once you finish the platter, don’t stop. Toss some noodles straight into the leftover garlic sauce, and suddenly you’ve unlocked a whole new universe of flavor. Honestly, it might be the best bite in Houston.

And the classics? Still unbeatable.
• Triple Fried Chicken: crispy outside, juicy and tender inside — never greasy, always satisfying.
• Deep-Fried Pork Ribs: my first time trying this and I was blown away. How did no one tell me this dish was hiding here all along? It’s crunchy, flavorful, and ridiculously good.

So whether you’re a fan of crawfish boils with the whole shebang, or you’re ready to challenge yourself with some of the best traditional Chinese food in Houston, Flavor House is where you need to be. This place is not just a meal — it’s an experience that keeps pulling you back.

“I LOVE Mian! I get the “Clear broth zajiang noodles/rice noodles” with medium spicy 🌶️ every time I come here and I love the flavor - Wow!!! I always try to find reasons to come to Chinatown so that we can have lunch or dinner together here!

Also, I love that they have a contactless “mianu” for ordering!“

“First time here under new management really love the customer service really enjoyed the number 46 I highly recommend“

“Great food and exceptional service.“

“Great dinner at Jiu Fu Cafe. The beef chow fun was perfectly cooked with tender beef and great flavor, not greasy at all. The stir fried shrimp with black pepper was crispy, fresh, and delicious. Service was quick and the atmosphere was clean and comfortable. Will definitely come back“

“Located in the Houston Chinatown, I loved this place, it did not have a huge menu sometimes typical of Chinese restaurants but still had plenty of options. I was there for the fried rice, got the chicken and salty fish fried rice, great portion, excellent taste and flavorful.

Ended up getting a take out as well of Curry Chicken of Rice which was juicy, well balanced and with plenty of chicken and a take out of Shrimp and salty fish fried rice.

Give this place a try for sure if in the area, the service was friendly and efficient too. Located in a small strip mall with enough parking.“

“Wide variety of food and drinks. Delicious. Friendly staff, and beautiful setting. Great menu for their happy hours. Must try👍“

“Our first time here and we will absolutely be back! Unbelievable steak (believe it or not) and the Khao Pad Gaeng Dang was to die for. Save room for the sticky rice with Mango!“

“First of all, I want to mention that I was born and raised in Houston, with Latino roots. I've been looking to try something new, so I've been hopping from one restaurant to another in search of a hidden gem. I found this restaurant on Maps and decided to give it a try, despite not knowing anything about the cuisine or the language. But that didn’t stop me from wanting to enjoy lunch.

As soon as I arrived, I knew I had found the right place because it had an old-fashioned look, which usually signals great food. When it came time to order, I was making guesses based on the pictures, as most of the menu was in Chinese. I decided to order something called braised octopus because it looked good in the image. However, the server asked me several times if I was sure about my choice. They tried to explain why it might not be a good idea, but their accent made it hard to understand. Ultimately, I decided to go with something else because I felt like only people who are familiar with the cuisine truly know how to appreciate it.

This is not a bad review—the food was actually delicious, and the flavors were on point. I might go back, but I chose to eat in my car because I didn't want to feel out of place, especially since it’s an Asian-centered establishment and I only speak Spanish and English. If any friends want to join me on another visit and can help me better understand the culture, I would love that!“

“The overall food quality and taste is on par , very well executed without too much flavor ,it has become one of my favorite Chinatown spots BUT only wish they would have a GOOD SPICY SAUCE (灵魂辣椒酱) that brings out the best of their food…….. hope the owners pay attention and give us a surprise !!!“

“Best noodles ever. Also a unique garlicky kimchi.“

“I drive 20 minutes to eat Thai Lily. It is hands down my favorite thai place of all times. The owner is so nice, and the food never disappoints. When you pop in for a meal make sure you grab some of his beef jerkey! It will not disappoint.“

“This place is now under new management. I never tried the old one, so I can’t compare, but the current spot feels like a true hidden gem, underrated and deserving of more attention. The vegetarian dry noodles are amazing, and the roasted duck noodle soup and chicken rice plate are also excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant!“

“It is a very nice place, always very clean and the service is excellent. The delicious food“

“This place was truly amazing! And our visit here was in total alignment. We previously stopped at an restaurant that didn't meet our dietary restrictions and Dough Zone was literally two minutes away. As soon as I walked in I fell in love. The atmosphere oozes peace, balance and love. The staff is so warm, attentive and kind hearted.

I was led to utilize the QR code feature to look upon the menu with my restrictions to my diet. And I found, rather quickly, exactly what I would order. I packed the chicken and veggie wonton/dumpling soup and it was AMAZING. So full of flavor, the ingredients were fresh and light and I didn't leave with any digestive issues. The price was 🤌🏾 and I left knowing I would be back ASAP. Thank you an amazing experience ✨💗“

“Excellent dim sum! If you have a hankering for Chinese food this is the place to eat!“

“Great food and reasonable.“

“Great food!! Friendly!! ☺️☺️“

“First timer in town for the day and I LOVED the name of the place. Went inside on Labor Day and found a few people eating pho that looked good & plentiful. However, I wanted the beef banh mi so that's what I ordered. The order took a bit longer than expected and the sandwich was smaller than other sandwiches I have had -- which is why I give them 4 stars. However, everything was very tasty and fresh. Had the Thai tea without Boba and that was good too. $15 is kind of high for one sandwich and a tea, but I enjoyed my meal and the customer service. The restaurant has a big dining area that they keep very clean and gets a lot of natural light. If I ever get back, I'll try the pho.“

“Best family place to go eat dinner, highly recommended, my kids love it“

“Best VN food in Sugar Land area.“
