Needed a spot to grab dinner fairly late and this did the trick. We were torn for apps between soup dumplings and wantons, so we got both. Neither was super special. The soup dumplings had a fair amount of soup, were nicely constructed, and didn't fall apart, which I appreciate. The spicy wantons I would have liked to have had a bit more flavor, so they were a bit of a miss. We got Kung-Pow chicken and cumin lamb. First of all, the portions are huge. The chicken was exactly what you'd expect but a skosh better. I usually regret ordering cumin lamb as the texture and flavoring is just meh, but I actually really enjoyed this version of it. The onions and other additions were a really nice balance for the meat. The prices for the dishes we got were super reasonable but some of the other dishes can certainly get up there. Knowing how much food we got with the dishes we did, I would absolutely recommend sticking to something on the cheaper side and making an extra meal of it.

I have been to some of their other locations and this one is similar, but the atmosphere may be one of the best since it's located in a very walkable area and opens late. I ordered the beef fried noodles and spicy cumin lamb. Both are excellent versions of pretty popular dishes, not to mention. Service was excellent the entire time. I will definitely remember they are located here next time I'm in the area.

Delicious food with perfect portions! Tried the pork potstickers in-house as a litmus test and they did not disappoint. For the to-go, I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken with rice noodles for myself and Mongolian Chicken for my fiancée. I also asked for a veteran discount which was a whopping 20% off! When I got home and we dug in, my fiancée and I were pleasantly surprised at how balanced all the flavors were and how much meat you get with each order! This is our new go-to Chinese place!

I went to Tiger Noodle House for lunch and was sat down immediately. I ordered a spicy chicken and rice dish with a side of broccoli. The dish was pretty good although on the salty side. I wish the broccoli would have had some seasoning to it. The server was polite. One thing that did feel odd was the distance of the table from the booth seat. I couldn't relax on the backside of the booth seat while eating and had to scoot forward to have enough reach to eat the meal.

There was a period of time where authentic Chinese restaurants weren't a thing in this part of Houston, but in the last 5 years an explosion of Sichuan based cuisine has found itself in all corners of the city and well beyond the loop. Tiger Noodle House has brought the heat (#1) to Rice Village and establishing a semi-legit option to the growing demand of Chinese cuisine in the loop. It feels like a huge gamble to set up shop in a place as granola and as commercialized as Rice Village, but it seems like it's paid off. They're open late and have a solid mix of authentic and Americanized dishes to appeal to most palates in the area. Considering the competition and growing Chinese contingent in the surrounding neighborhoods, it'd be safe to assume Tiger Noodle House is primed to handle it all. Overall the food has been consistent and abundant. The majority of the menu is Sichuan based but with some additional regional dishes outside of the cuisine. Their dan dan noodles have a nice kick to the oil and I was very pleased with their yuxiang eggplant as well as the cumin lamb. The winning ones were the shui zhu yu. (poached fish in hot oil) and chongqing style fried chicken. There have been some minor price increases since the pandemic, but foodflation is still minimal here. Service is good for the most part and the staff is young and hard working. Beware of the parking and be mindful of the traffic. ___________ (#1) Literally and figuratively.
