Such amazing food. Been a few times now and each time has been better than the last. The wait staff has been super friendly and have great recommendations. Almost always get immediately sat when walking in. A casual atmosphere and laid back. Food is served family style, aka an entree typically serves 2-3 people and everything is meant to be shared. The Szechuan Boiled is spicy and makes about 6 servings, would recommend beef or chicken with steamed rice. The Walnut is a creamy sauce paired great with the Shrimp. The Braised Pork is to die for, worth ordering just for yourself, but would ask for more buns. read more

Upon arrival, my family and I were extremely excited to eat here after seeing a great online review on FB. We did have to wait a bit for tables to be pushed together and gotten ready for us but it was less than 10 minutes. We were immediately seated after this was done and the vibes immediately gave off, fast but fresh. We all placed our drink orders almost as soon as we were given menus and our drinks were immediately brought to us within 5 minutes (there was a large group of 8 of us). We placed a large sharable order for the entire table along with our main entrees. There is a notation on the menu stipulating the wait time on the dumplings being a minimum of 15 minutes which was perfectly fine with us all seeing as we could clearly see the dumplings being made fresh from the kitchen from where we were seated (the closest table to the kitchen). Our waitress was extremely patient with us, extremely knowledgeable of the entire menu, AND extremely willing to help us when needed. The dumplings, regardless of which you order- in which WAY they're cooked-are absolutely amazing. Flavorful and filled with juice. AND THOSE AREN'T even the soup dumplings! The soup dumplings (we ordered 3 orders during the sit down meal and ordered 2 to go) were positively amazingly flavored. Well balanced in their taste and was such a delight to eat. Our main dishes came shortly after the dumplings arrived. There were 6 adults and 2 children for this meal. We each ordered our own dishes and shared them amongst each other. One of the dishes ordered was pork belly ramen with no cilantro. As soon as it arrived, although to my pallet, it was beautifully balanced and rich in flavor, the adult whom ordered it did not like it and sent it back to the kitchen. The waitress asked why the food was being sent back to which the response was simply just a taste issue. It was replaced with an order of soup dumplings and the cost of the pork belly was removed from the bill (they did not have to do so but it was absolutely amazing that they did do this). Overall, the food, the experience, and the staff were amazing. We did order 5 dishes fresh to go and they did not disappoint. 1000/1000 will be coming back here again. read more

Oh what a difference 6 months makes. NOT THE SAME PLACE This place has either changed management or lost the plot Today we dropped in after faire, at the fair we had a bourbon chicken and rice. At this place this evening we ordered fried rice, sweet and sour chicken and we added some bao. Within less than 5 minutes we were served the sweet and sour and rice. Okay, so the rice I understand. But the sweet and sour chicken was disturbingly dry lifeless and frankly pretty much all breading. When I complained that it had come so quickly we didn't want the bao they told us were had to have read the menu and knew it was going to take 15 minutes. Yes, but I wasn't expecting the mains to come so quickly. Clearly this is not the same place we ate at before. Don't go. It's crap and finally the fair food at 1/2 the pride was better and looked like real chicken. Don't go. Clearly they have fired chicken sitting for hours being kept slightly warm that they throw sauce on. The same name not the same place. Don't do it. PF Changs is a lot better, frankly I've had better food at Panda Express read more

My first time here.. been wanting to try it since my daughter and friend said it was good! Ended up ordering the salt and pepper shrimp and my friend got the combo fried rice.

Will definitely go back to try their other dishes. read more

Met a friend for dinner because we were craving dumplings. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the kitchen equipment so the menu was limited to soups and steamed dumplings only. The manager said the issue would be resolved by tomorrow. Regardless, we enjoyed our dumplings (veggie for me, chicken for my friend). I tried the Lanzhou Noodle Soup with tofu, which was supposed to be spicy, but it definitely was not. The tofu was crisp and I love the fresh noodles and veggies, but it lacked some flavor. I will stick to the dumplings and other soup I have previously tried. Service was good, as usual. They were busy when we finished our meal, so it took a little while to pay our tab, but we weren't in a rush. read more

Came here on Sunday January 18th for lunch with my dad. And it was delicious. Good company. Good food. This place was an old IHOP and it was decorated well. Suki was pretty awesome, great suggestions and just an all around good time. We had an issue with the rice order. I ordered the chicken Hawaiian fried rice and the chicken hunan rice was brought out. Nothing major. So Suki redid the order and said for us to keep the hunan rice. But she ordered the beef Hawaiian fried rice. So again not what we wanted a happy accident. It was good. Tasty and fresh! Sadly we got charged for both fried rices. So it wasn't a happy accident. Either way pretty awesome time. It's just money. read more

Came here with my friend since she wanted Asian food. I was thrilled to try this place because I saw 2 Asian women making dumplings in the kitchen. Neat you can watch. Service: okay our server was a bit slow Fried rice: huge portion of rice that fed us and enough to take home. The fried rice was okay but the spicy was just red chili oil. Dumplings: the wrappers were too thick and not enough filling. The beef was lacking in flavor and just meh. The pork was better but noting I would order again. The portions are huge and if you want meh rice and dumplings.. read more

Great place! They make hand-pulled noodles right in front of you, which is awesome to watch. I had the miso ramen, soup dumplings (xiao long bao), curry fried noodles, and green beans. Every single dish was a hit. The ramen broth was rich and comforting, the noodles had the perfect bite, and the toppings were spot on. The soup dumplings were my favorite, perfect amount of soup inside, delicate wrapper, and dipping them in the sauce took them to Super Saiyan level. Highly recommend if you want fresh, flavorful food and a fun dining experience. read more

We visited for my friends birthday for the first time. It was pretty good. It was chill, we were expecting to drink but they didn't have their liquor license yet, our waiter said soon. The workers came out to sing happy birthday to my friends and didn't know how to sing so they got it together and came out again and made it happen it was hilarious! We ordered the Hawaiian fried rice and they forgot to put pineapples in it, it was ok. I'll definitely be back for the soup dumplings those were delicious. read more

Party of Five walk-in we were set immediately. Our waitress was amazing, knowledgeable and very attentive. Her name is MAIZIE. Thanks!!! We ordered many plates and each one of them was bursting with flavor. At the table there was black chile oil, if you wanted to add to your dish. We ordered the cucumber salad, spicy wonton soup, pork belly plate with noodle, colorful dumplings, pork belly ramen, hot and sour soup, and crispy noodle. Not one dish was disappointing. This is a great place to come for dinner, enough space for large groups as well. The restaurant was very clean and so we're their restrooms. Stop by if in the area! read more

A few months ago I came down with covid and browsed my apps for a spot that would deliver something that would soothe my body and soul. Noodles and Dumplings had just the thing - Black Garlic Oil Ramen (with pork belly). The broth is 110% the best thing about this dish. Not that the rest of the components were bad, quite the opposite. But during a time where breathing hurt, sipping on this felt like a warm, healing embrace. The garlic was nice and pungent. Now that the weather is cooling down again, I find myself wanting another bowl of this comforting dish. The rest of the menu looks good - I may try something different, but it's going to be hard to not fall back on the ramen. read more

I have been wanting to eat here for awhile and had the opportunity last night. Combo fried noodle, pork and Crab bao, chicken and cabbage dumplings, cucumber salad and chocolate bao. It was so good. Flavorful. The noodles were perfect. The pork and Crab soup dumplings were very crab forward but very good. The cucumber salad was tangy and crunchy. The one downfall was the Chocolate bao. It was not what I was expecting. I was expecting a soft pillowy dough filled with a nice chocolate filling but it was an overfried donut filled with chocolate that was seizing up after being melted covered in an insane amount of sugar. It was edible but not what I was expecting or would order again. Now let's talk Jasmine. This friendly, knowledgeable and attentive server. She had a great sense of humor. Was attentive and was a whole part of the experience. read more

Noodles & Dumplings is THE spot you need to visit for authentic chinese fare and handmade noodles and dumplings, all made fresh to order! You can even watch them make it through the kitchen window! There are endless options, all delicious!! As a pescatarian and vegetarian forward foodie, I was pleasantly surprised with their menu, which covers just about every dietary preference in the book! There's so many favorites from this place! Of course they take pride in their noodle and dumpling dishes, but the showstopper for me was the mix flavor eggplant. I wish it were closer because I'm a huge fan! But definitely worth the drive to Windcrest! The place is sit-down casual type of vibe, making it super welcoming and laid back!

Went to Noodles and Dumplings with my husband one day. First time. They do have an extensive menu of American Chinese food. A few dumplings and bao on the menu. We ordered a few items to try. The dumplings were tasty and great. We also love the bao and the veggie soup with noodles. They were all great choices. Tasted fresh and delicious. I would definitely come back for the same items we purchased in the future. We did not try any of the American Chinese food entrees. Service was great the manager was serving us. We sat close to the kitchen and watch as food was made fresh. The place was getting pretty busy. There are plenty of tables available in other sections. I th read more

Wow! Fabulous new place...the noodles and dumplings were so very tasty and fresh. They made the dumplings fresh and steamed them right there after they were ordered. It takes about 15 minutes or so. It was worth the wait! The place was an old IHop restaurant and you can kind of tell, it didn't change too much, however, the booths were very comfortable. The wall when you walk in is covered with dumplings baskets. So cute! We had a basket of color dumplings, chicken soup dumplings, Mongolian Beef, and a noodle soup (sorry, I have no idea how to spell it! All of the food was very flavorful.

I was soooo looking forward to this place after seeing the TikTok reviews but it was disappointing. We were a party of 9 and were seated pretty quickly. The place itself was a little fast food ish but this is the Walzem area so don't expect anything fancy. The waiter was very nice and did a good job despite having several large tables come in. As far as the food, I had the colorful dumpling sampler. These were the highlight. Not the best dumplings I've ever had but very good. The Chinese food itself was just okay. No better than any fast food Chinese that I've had. Portions were pretty big and the price was in line with what you get. We had the sesame chicken and the honey garlic chicken with chicken and beef fried rice. Egg rolls did not seem home made but frozen. They charge a 20% tip for parties over 6 which is my biggest pet peeve for restaurants. Let the service speak for itself. The 20% by the way is off the entire bill including Tax. Ridiculous. I doubt many people even notice this. read more

Everything was absolutely delicious! We ordered quite a bit: soup dumplings, pan fried dumplings, curry fried roce, noodle soup, stir fried noodles, and shrimp tempura. We really wanted to try different dishes ofbtheir hand-pulled noodles and we sure did! Love the inconsistency of the noodle sizes, some are wider and some are thinner. But all tastes like fresh, chewy noodles. I'm hooked! Service was great and friendly, very attentive. Love the plates, very unique for a family friendly restaurant. Great for date nights too. Definitely recommend and will definitely come again! read more

He helped my VERY picky daughter find something to eat. lol She got the fried noodles and liked them. She never eats dumplings but we had to order a second order just for her. The restaurant is an old Ihop, but it's redesigned with a great Chinese flair. I love all the steam bao basket hanging on the wall.

We headed to @noodlesdumplings this past Friday night for dinner. There wasn't much wait for us to get seated. Fisher was our server, who took good care of us. We shared the Panfriee Colorful Combo Dumplings, Xiao Long Bao (crab and pork), Fried Noodles with shrimp, and Braised Fried Pork Chop. The combo dumplings came in chicken, beef, pork, and vegetable. They were very good. Even though we've had the soup dumplings before, I still prefer @sichuandaahi ones. More packed with flavor. The pork chop was not exactly what my husband expected. The meat was cut into smaller pieces. The flavor was decent. If you haven't tried this place, you need to add this to your list and stop by. read more

I'm going to go ahead & give this place the 5 stars that it deserves! Even though upon dining here for the first time, there was an issue with us getting our food in a timely manner. We live fairly close to & every time we have driven by, the parking lot is usually packed. We were intrigued. So, we decided to give it a shot on a Monday night, around 6 PM. We figured it shouldn't be too bad. Wrong! We got there & the parking lot was packed! Upon entering, the waiting area was packed & it's not really much of a waiting area. Just for reference, it is a former IHOP, so you get the idea. Anyway, you stroll up to the host station & there is a QR code that you have to scan for the waitlist & there is also one for the menu right next to it. We were 9th on the list & it seemed to move at a decent pace & we waited 36 minutes to be seated. We were greeted by our server Isaiah, who asked if this was our first time; to which we replied yes. He then took us on a little tour on the way to our table, which included a trip past the Thai/Milk tea/Boba station & then on past the show kitchen, where there were a little Auntie & Uncle making dumpling & hand stretching noodles. It was really cool & I appreciated that touch. I was even more excited to try the food after that! We were seated in a booth, which I prefer. Unfortunately, they were only able to provide one menu at the time, so I had to look on my phone, but I had perused the menu earlier in the day & pretty much had an idea of what I wanted to order already. During our tour, Isaiah made mention that the dumplings took about 15 minutes to prepare, which is also stated in their menu, so they are setting the expectation. So, we knew that we wanted to try the Colorful Combo Dumplings first, which we ordered pan fried. So, Isaiah went to put that in first. Upon his return, we ordered Beef Broccoli, Fried Noods w/Chicken, Fried Rice w/Chicken & Xiao Long Bao (Soup Dumpling), which came in an oder of 6 - 3 Chicken & 3 Pork. Sadly, this is where it took a turn. 15 minutes came & went & no dumplings. We watched the near empty area that we had been seated, fill up with people that had obviously been seated after us & delicious looking plates come out to those other parties. But where was our food? Where, Isaiah? We had been there about an hour before he came back to let us know that he wasn't sure what happened with our order & he assured us that they were now working on it & apologized & would see what he could do for the inconvenience & stepped away & suddenly returned to let us know that he would be taking 20% off the check. We said that would be fine. Finally the food came out, one dish after the next & I almost didn't let my camera eat first, I was so hungry! However, I managed to compose myself long enough to get photos, with the exception of the Chicken Fried Rice. I mean, we all know what Chicken Fried Rice looks like, right? As I was saying; the food. Let me tell you. As inconvenient as the wait was, it was worth it. The quality & the flavor of the dumplings were tip-top! At that moment, I had wished that I was blessed with the stomach of a cow, because I promise that my Rumen, Reticulum, Omasum & Abomasum would have been overflowing with ALL the dumplings! Also, the Noods were AMAZING! They certainly live up to their name. Sadly, the Beef Broccoli didn't really have great flavor. However, it was filled with decent quality meat & really fresh & plentiful pieces of broccoli. Oh, did I mention the Chicken Fried Rice? No need. Well, that is my story. I am so glad that I live so close, because in the future, I may just do online orders, rather than dining in. Because, I will be coming back for more!! One last note. Isaiah was awesome & the staff there is super friendly! read more

Absolutely terrible. The place was dead at 7 pm on a Friday night- that should have been our first clue. I ordered the lemon chicken with steamed rice. The lemon sauce looked like urine. It was thin and tasteless. The "chicken" was all batter, meat almost nonexistent. I'm not sure how it's possible to mess up steamed rice but they achieved it. My husband ordered a soup and my order came out way before his. Probably because mine was sitting around in the kitchen. This was not our first time here, but definitely our last. To top off the experience the waitress had a sour attitude. Avoid! read more

OVERVIEW: 3-3.5/5 - Specialty hand pulled noodles and dumplings, this spot brings in a good quality noodle house in the S.A. area. Decent size menu, good variety, and generous portions (good value). Service was quick and very casual, food was good but nothing really stood out to me. Compared to several other restaurants I've tried with a similar menu and offerings, this one just fell a little short. Overall, it's worth trying though and the best option in the general area! QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, open parking lot shared with the neighboring restaurant. - Reservations? Not needed. You can join the waitlist if there is one. - Vegetarian options? Yes, plenty of dishes you can make vegetarian! FOOD RATINGS: - YouPo dry noodle bowl (3/5): I selected tofu and this was loaded with veggies, which I loved! I know it's a "dry" bowl (just dried chili powder and spices), but it needed a little something more. Noodles were nice and chewy and everything was fresh. Just kind of boring. - Tonkatsu ramen (4/5): Pretty decent ramen. Broth was flavorful and noodles were good. Generous portion. You can select your protein. - Mixed dumplings (4/5): 2 each of chicken, pork, beef, and veggie. Thick and juicy. Pretty good! - Sesame chicken (3.5/5): I know it's an American Chinese dish but it was decent. Crispy and sweet and saucy. Large, shareable portion. - Cream cheese rangoons (3/5): Nothing bad but nothing extraordinary. Could use more filling. read more

This experience was wonderful! Customer service is above expectations- when you walk in they give you a "tour" which takes you past the area where they make the dumplings and the noodle making area. Very cool to be able to see them hands on and watch the experience. They sat us at a table to see the window to watch the cooks work. Loved it! The menu is wonderful so many choices! We decided to share the Chicken ramen and pork soup dumplings. Perfect amount for us. Each of us got a Pepsi but they definitely have some great other options like Boba drinks and lemonades. Total was : 35$ well worth the food we got. The soup dumplings were perfect - bite the top off and the warm broth comes out with a ton of flavor. The waiter checked on us multiple times. He was fun, explained everything and made it overall a cool time. Will definitely be a TO GO SPOT! read more

Upon walking into the old IHOP establishment I was greeted by a host & hostess. The host walked me to a table & explained the new restaurant to me. He informed me that the noodles, dumplings & everything was made fresh & to order. He seated me to where I could watch the chef hand making noodles, which was such fun. The waitress came to take my drink order, and explained to me about the different teas they had to offer. She then provided me with small samples of each of them. I chose the Thai tea with boba & it was so yummy. I've included the menu field everyone to take a look at. I truly cannot stop recommending this restaurant to everyone I talk with because it's so wonderful. From the people, to the ambiance, to the absolutely amazing food. I tried the colorful dumplings first, which is two of each flavor of dumplings. I highly recommend this if you are wanting a yummy lunch, but don't want a big lunch. It's a good portion size & has all the flavors. Ask for extra sauce though. If you like sauce, like me. Next I asked for an order to go for the next days lunch, which ended up also being dinner & enough for another small lunch which was the Spicy YouPo Noodle dish. Which had shrimp & fresh vegetables with wide noodles & a delicious spicy sauce. I don't think it was too spicy. So, you can always add more hot oil to it, like I do. I also placed a to go order for vegetable Bao. They come four to an order, which is plenty. They are quite sizeable & filling. I didn't ask for sauce for them, but will next time. Again, I'm a sauce girl. Lastly, I got chocolate Bao for a dessert right before left the restaurant. I only ate one, because honestly, the dumplings filled me up. The chocolate Bao reminded me very much of a yummy chocolate filled little donut. Crispy on the outside with a lava like chocolate inside, with sugar coating. The waitress was attentive, but not overly. She did pay attention, so there was no need to "get her attention" as I have had to do in other places. I cannot talk this establishment up enough. All of the employees I had the opportunity to talk with were lovely. I look forward to going again, & again. This place is a fresh spin on restaurants in San Antonio & I'm so happy it's on this side of town! read more

Ok, I am going to be very honest with my review, the food is ABSOLUTELY OUT OF THIS WORLD, but the place needs help. The location, it's not the best, looks like it used to be an IHOP, but oh my! The food is so delicious that I didn't care how long I had to drive. I love the fact that all the cooks are Asian, so I know the food is very authentic! And they had a big glass window and you can see what they are cooking, the best part?? You can see how they make from scratch their noodles!! It's so pretty how they do it! It's like art! Everything we got was fantastic. The service is not bad but not great. And prices are fair, also the portions are big so you can share. Definitely a must if you love Asian food! read more
