The Chinese Noodle Palace

Stopped by for takeout, as this restaurant is a few minutes walk from my hotel. Very glad I did. The shenzen baos were amazing, and the water boiled dumplings were also very good. Staff is very friendly, and the food was ready within minutes of ordering. Price was okay as well. Definitely recommended!

The food here is incredible. We ordered a few different type of dumplings and they were all incredible. The soup dumplings were divine. Some how these soft scrumptious pillows were the best pork buns ive probably ever had. The spicy sour dumplings made a good soup 👌 end to the night. Highly recommend and will be back.

I really love how they decorated for the holidays and even their bowls and cups were aesthetically pleasing. I love the ambience and the seating was also comfy. Our egg drop soup was served in a bowl that looked like a cracked egg! It was so cool! Hehe The pork and shrimp Xiaolongbao was sooo good! Everything was delicious! We shared the cream puffs, which were crispy, sweet, and creamy. The meat eggrolls were also crispy. The scallion pancakes were perfectly flaky, crisp, and buttery on the outside. Minimal scallions, though. When I make them at home, I overindulge on the scallions, so that’s just my preference. 😆 I loved the crispy flaky buttery texture. 💕 The sesame chicken was very good. Sweet. The Xiaolongbao was really fun to eat and very flavorful, as was the spicy dumpling soup! They made it mild for me because I can’t do spicy food anymore 🥲 and it was still so good! Overall, incredible dinner. We ordered a lot to try, but had a lot leftover. The portions are shareable and the service was lovely, friendly, great at remembering, and fast! They also have a rewards program you can join and use your points towards specific free items. Pretty neat restaurant. We walked there from our hotel.

Dumplings and Noodles is an absolute must-try if you’re anywhere near the Galleria in Houston. The food here is amazing fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The soup dumplings are among the best I’ve ever had perfectly delicate with rich, savory broth inside. I was also blown away by the orange chicken. For once, it actually tasted like real oranges instead of just sugar a refreshing surprise! The beef and onion fried dumplings were crispy, juicy, and full of flavor, while the spicy shrimp packed a serious punch in the best way possible. It’s a small, clean spot with a warm, welcoming staff. You really feel the attention to detail and authenticity in everything they serve. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great dumplings or is just looking for a top-tier casual dining experience. One of the best dumpling spots I’ve been to in a long time. We’ll definitely be back!

Ordered: scallion pancake, cucumber salad, eggplant love green beans, chicken xiao long bao, shrimp asparagus sour dumplings soup. All very tasty, decent portion size for 2, service was timely and polite. Prices reasonable. The broth flavor for the soup was delicious, not too sour, a slight tartness supported by a fully body marinade of flavors. They accommodated a non-spicy version with chili oil on the side. The dumplings were perfectly wrapped and cooked, good amount of stuffing and choice of ingredients. Will be revisiting for sure!
