Good food and good service , we had the spicy crab is so fresh, and tased so good , and my favorite is the eggs and shrimp.

For starters, the entire experience was very authentic. The service was welcoming and attentive, and my family had no problem finding a seat or taking orders. The food was great! My personal favorite was the mouthwatering chicken. Everything was seasoned well and tasted great. Everything was portioned nicely and my family of 4 left pretty fulfilled. The food isn't too overwhelming-- just enough to leave you satisfied. We were surprised to find out that the white rice was refillable, which only added to our enjoyment. I would also say that the food is well worth the price. This is definitely somewhere I'd come back to, especially considering that the area is full of other great Chinese places. Definitely come check this place out! read more

Another Sichuan restaurant worth trying in the Bellaire area. If you're planning to go on the weekend, I'd recommend making a reservation in advance because the restaurant can get pretty busy. The space is quite large, with two private dining areas that are great for bigger groups. There are also plenty of smaller tables in the main dining area. One downside is that parts of the restaurant feel a little worn and could use some updating, which takes away from the overall dining atmosphere. The food took a while to come out, and the dishes arrived one at a time, but the wait was worth it. The flavors were really good, and the portions were quite generous. They also gave us a complimentary dessert at the end of the meal, which was a nice touch. Overall, I'd definitely come back when I'm craving Chinese food. read more

Came in with my friend, there weren't many people and we came at an off time (3pm) so we got seated right away. Drinks: Keep in mind they don't have many options. They have hot tea (it's a flower tea), water, and soft drinks from their soda machine. Food: we ordered chili wontons, cucumbers, black pepper beef, and triple pepper shrimp. I loved the shrimp the best, but I was avoiding the peppers bc the Szechuan spice really gets you! read more

Had the chance to check out Triple Pepper! I'm shocked how many locations they had here in Houston I think my rating is closer to 3.7~/5 truly but no half star or decimal stars here on yelp. Lets get into it! Things we ordered: Black pepper beef - loved this dish! Perfectly done, juicy, very good serving amount loved the onions, bell pepper. We absolutely killed this dish Spicy crispy chicken - cooked to perfection! Loved how very true it was to the name. Very crispy, very good mix of the Sichuan peppers. I think the meat quality overall here is quite good. I would even rank it above the other spicy crispy chicken dishes I've had at other Sichuan restaraunts for the meat quality alone. Soup dumplings - Very thick dumpling dough, not as much soup inside as I was hoping to be honest. Bit disappointed by how little soup was in each one. Pretty bland from our group's consensus. Stir fried flat noodle with beef - I think this was great, as with the other meat dishes, all the meat tasted fresh and were perfectly done. Good serving amount for price Chili pepper with wonton - fairly disappointed with this one. Pretty bland overall, tasteless. We didn't want to even finish it by the end of it. I was hoping for more spice or kick to it similar to another Sichuan place I frequently go to and it really did not hit the mark IMO. Attentive staff that checked in with us quite often. Refilled water consistently even on a busy night and thats huge plus in bellaire! Overall from everything we ordered, we are much more incline to stick with the meat dishes here from what we've seen. I think the spicy crispy chicken and black pepper beef were above other Sichuan restaraunts ive been to so ill have to revisit to see if I'd recommend it over their fierce competition against all the other Sichuan restaraunts in town read more

Located in the same plaza as Don Cafe. Parking can get crowded when the plaza is busy, particularly at night. We were able to get a table without a wait, but it was crowded for dinner on a weekend night. Ambience was chill but the interior design was very intricate.   Their menu was abundant, a lot of classic Sichuan options to choose from. Service was quick and waiter was friendly. We ordered a few dishes to share:   Spicy crispy chicken: one of my fave Sichuan dish but it was not as crispy as I would have liked. Wontons in spicy chili sauce: spicy chili sauce had good flavors, not too spicy and decent portion. Snow pea leaves: can't go wrong with snow pea leaves, good portion overall. Soup dumplings: thought this was okay, a good amount of soup inside but didn't wow me. read more

Exterior is unassuming, but the interior is huge and they even have a private room. They have a vast menu, along side a bubble tea menu. The service was attentive, and they would come by and clean up or take away anything that we were done with. They even packed our leftover food very efficiently. We ordered their triple pepper beef, and shrimp. Generous and delicious portions. The vegetable was sautéed well with garlic. The fried rice was packed with protein, and was done well. The dumplings and Dan Dan noodles were flavourful but overly salty - hence removed a star. Everything was generous, but the heavy handed salt seasoning can be remedied. Look forward to trying other items from their menu. read more

Triple Pepper is easily one of the best Sichuan-style restaurants in Houston. My fiancée and I ordered three different dishes, and every single one was a 10/10. The flavors were bold, authentic, and perfectly balanced--exactly what you want from Sichuan cuisine. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone who loves spicy, flavorful food. Come hungry! read more

Absolutely love Triple Pepper! The food is flavorful, authentic, and packed with that perfect Sichuan spice and mala flavor. Everything we ordered was delicious, portions were generous, and the atmosphere was clean, modern, and welcoming. The service was also friendly and attentive. Definitely one of my favorite Chinese restaurants in Houston and a place I'll keep coming back to. Highly recommend! read more

Good lord the food was stunning and knocked me out. Dumplings were incredible and had a really unexpected sweetness to them. cold noodles slapped. crispy chicken dish was very good. And one of the most incredible tasting, savory, delicious hot and sour soups I have ever had. Yes szechuan is one of my favorite cuisines, but this place was truly special. Plus good service and solid portions and price. Nothing was wicked spicy, even the dishes listed as such, but that is okay, and everything definitely had a little kick to it! Easily five stars. read more

The waitstaff pretty much just speak Chinese here, but they try their best with English and can understand most of what you're saying. The food here is great and comes out pretty quickly. We ordered the spicy crispy chicken, mapo tofu, and sliced beef & tendon. The mapo tofu was standard, not extraordinary but still good. The sliced beef and tendon were also good, but the highlight was definitely the crispy chicken. I loved how spicy and crispy it was and it paired so well with the rest of our food. read more

They're not kidding calling this triple pepper. Wildly spicy, with tons of red peppers. Also very delicious and different from typical American style Chinese. Definitely worth trying if you like spicy food. I ordered via Uber eats so I can't comment on service or ambiance. But it came quickly which was good. And they had a good bogo deal which encouraged me to try it for the first time. This was a 4.5 star experience for me, because it was a little too spicy, but I'm rounding up. read more

After being seated, we waited about 15 minutes without anyone coming over to take our order. During that time, the staff appeared more focused on talking amongst themselves or cleaning tables than coming to take our order. At one point, all three servers were cleaning a single table while we continued to sit unacknowledged. To make matters worse, two parties who arrived after us were not only served but had already received their food before anyone even came to our table. After 15 minutes without so much as an acknowledgment, we decided to leave and dine somewhere else. Do better. read more

Decided to randomly go to Chinatown to find something to eat and we saw that this place had good reviews. We ordered fried dumplings, beef/shrimp chow mein, and black pepper beef. The food took about 20 minutes. Everything tasted delicious. I believe we paid $42 for all 3 dishes! I would come back but I would pass on the fried dumplings. read more

Triple Pepper - Chinese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I first heard some reviews when they just opened and always been hesitated to try, but now I'm glad I did. The service, environment, and food are wonderful. Prices for the dishes varies but the portion is very generous, would be a good pick for big family dine out and they take reservations. My most recommend would be the dry pots and the hot sour noodles. All the dry pot will be served with the fish hanger, great for picture and aesthetic. The glass noodle is numbing spicy and tangy because of the vinegar so makes it so addicting to keep eating. Overall their dishes are not too spicy, and they have non spicy specialities too. I will come back again to try more! read more

Chinatown has changed so much, and the plaza with the original Mala is no exception. Triple Pepper has brazenly shown up a stone's throw away. I already went twice in the last two weeks, and when I brought up the first time to my dad (we're Sichuanese), he asked me every day when we would go. Dishes we ordered across the 2 days: == Tossed clear noodles with chili sauce == solid, great texture on the noodles, good spice levels, 5/5 == Sliced beef and ox tongue in chili sauce == solid, this might be one of the more 'adventurous' dishes for those who are unfamiliar with the uncommon beef cuts. 5/5 == Fish fillet with rattan pepper == probably my favorite dish we ordered, lots of green sichuan peppercorn. 5/5 == Mapo Tofu == classic dish, goes well with rice 4/5 == Eight delicacies tofu == good dish, though everyone was expecting (hoping) it to be spicy (1 pepper level on the menu), but it wasn't. 3/5 == Pepper Stir-Fried Chicken == classic dish. Good amount of meat, though there's quite a bit more skin bits. Missing the mound of red chilis. == Pepper Stir-Fried Chicken (bone in) == the REAL classic dish. Similar to the boneless one, where are all the red chilis??? == Specialty stir-fried beef tender == good flavors 5/5 Other thoughts: + Menu has plenty of dishes with photos + Friendly staff + Rice was solid, just dry enough to mix well with the saucier dishes - A little skimpy on the amount of red chilis on the classic dishes like laziji, and what seems to be substitution with jalapeños. - The chicken and beef dishes were quite salty (even my dad commented on it, and he's a little heavy on the salt himself), you definitely need to eat with rice. Next time, we'll have to order dry pot (the dry pot holder looks very impressive on the other tables that ordered it), and to FINALLY order my all-time Sichuanese dish favorite: water cooked beef / Chongqing boiled beef. In Houston, we have been blessed with Mala Sichuan, which begs the question: do we need another Sichuan spot? Triple Pepper has answered with a numbing, sweating YES -- actually my nose is sweating just thinking about it... read more

Delicious food and many options. We had the eggplant, string beans, and hot and sour soup. It was all fantastic-- especially the eggplant!

Great new Szechuan place. Came here on a Wednesday around 5:30pm. There were several tables of customers. By the time we left the place filled up. Beautiful lux interior. Clean restrooms. Plenty of seating. Service was quick; they were good at refilling water, taking order, food came out at good pace. They have all the Szechuan usuals. Very authentic flavors. My favorite was the fish fillet with pickled vegetables. Very good portions as well. Definitely will be coming back. read more

Spectacular!!!! We go to Mala Sichuan in the same plaza for sichuanese cravings but decided to try triple pepper out and what a beautiful addition to our rotation of Chinese restaurants! This fish dish was to die for. Dream about it often. Spice is a little high so beware! Cabbage dish was simple but also so delicious. Little ingredients make the cabbage's natural flavours really shine, and this style of chinese cooking in vegetarian dishes is so comforting. Chicken dish was good but not as good as the one at mala but still very delicious. read more

The pricing was decent here - we did family style and ordered one order of spicy wontons, pork hock, and dan dan noodles, and it was about $16 each after tax and tip. The service was good and speedy, and the food came out nice and hot. No complaints there. The ambiance was cool. I liked how open and green everything was. It felt very earthy. My main issue was that the food itself wasn't super flavorful. The dumpling meat could've been way more tender. The actual chili oil or sauce they were in didn't have any flavor or spice either. The dan dan noodles were very light and did have a Szechuan aspect to them, but I've had better. The pork was definitely the star of the meal, and made up for the other dishes. The pork was cooked perfectly, and easily came off the bone with just a light pull with chopsticks. The sauce with the rice was also a good addition. read more

The NEW REAL AUTHENTIC GEM that we found tonight. Amazed by the experience tonight at TRIPLE PEPPER. If you love spicy food, you should not miss Triple Pepper. It is very joyful to us being able to find Triple Pepper. We drove by Triple Pepper the other night, my BF loves spicy foods. So this is a must-try in our thoughts. And we're here tonight Ambiance: Triple Pepper is located as quiet, well-reserved on this busy area of China town. Painted in black but everything in side is clean, neat, cozy, modern design. The light of the restaurant is right, beautiful. To me, the ambiance is peaceful. Service: Super attentive, warm welcome and very friendly. We come in and out with the staff's happy smiles. Thank you so much! Food: OMG! They are GREAT. I really want to run to the kitchen and thank you the Chef for bringing these tasteful authentic dishes to the table. Beautifully presented to the table. Drunken Chicken: ... chicken immersed in a very special sauce that makes us linger on even though we finish the dish..... thinking what ingredients in there..... Wood Eat Appetizer: to me, it helps balance and connect the whole flavors of our orders together, cleaning our palate and cool some heat down. Tastes good. ( We do think the appetizers are worth more than their prices. ) Lao Gan Ma Beef: my BF doesn't really like the taste... I do. Fish Fillet in Rattan Pepper: This dish is GREAT. Warning: the soup itself is super spicy. Yet overall, this dish makes me fall in love with. Fresh, soft fish, in a unique soup base. Last , but not least: the rice. . Soft, Moist, nice fragrant, presented in a nice, lovely bucket. We will definitely come back for more experiences with Triple Pepper. Thank you so much again for putting effort into your restaurant. We appreciate wholeheartedly. Wish Triple Pepper all the bests, read more

Very affordable authentic Asian food! Price is very cheap for the portion that's served. Restaurant is pretty clean and service was quick. Got all my dishes in under 10 minutes!

Every dish I ordered had chili oil/peppers, great restaurant for family style meals! read more

let me just commend this restaurant for their interior alone. the ambience in here is amazing! the staff were welcoming and attentive as well. we had a private room for a big party to celebrate a birthday and ordered over a dozen items, all of them deliciously spicy and authentically sichuan. the dry pot cauliflower was my favorite; just look at how stunning the presentation is! the black pepper beef, boiled fish fillet, and taro chicken were great too. the portion sizes are average and the dishes were a bit greasy and salty, but overall a good experience read more

My wife and I decided to try this new Sichuan restaurant, and we'll definitely be back! We got dongpo pork shank, stir-fried lotus roots, hot oil dumplings, and cold oil noodles (shaped like elongated rectangular prisms - I'd never seen these before). Everything was good, but the lotus root was amazing! I'd go back just to get more of that! The menu is large, so many good things to pick from. The service was quick, and the waitress was helpful in describing what some unfamiliar dishes were. Great for a date night! read more

Triple Pepper - A Spice Lover's Paradise with Room for Refinement Triple Pepper is the kind of place that immediately piques your curiosity. With a name like that, you expect bold flavors, and in many ways, they deliver. But does it truly ignite the senses or just simmer at a mild burn? Ambiance & Experience - 4/5 Walking in, you're greeted by a warm yet contemporary vibe--dim lighting, earthy tones, and an open kitchen that hints at serious culinary action. The aroma of sizzling chilies fills the air, teasing what's to come. Seating is comfortable, though the noise level can spike when the place is packed. Service - 4.5/5 Our server was friendly, well-versed in the menu, and eager to offer recommendations. Water glasses stayed full (a must when dealing with heat!), and dishes arrived in a well-timed flow--neither rushed nor sluggish. Food - 4.5/5 We started with the Triple Pepper Firecracker Shrimp, a knockout. Perfectly crispy, balanced between sweet heat and a slow-burning kick. If you can handle spice, this is a must. For mains, the Sichuan Peppercorn Ribeye was cooked beautifully, but the numbing effect of the peppercorns could have been dialed up for more impact. The Ghost Pepper Mac & Cheese, however, stole the show. Creamy, indulgent, and packing a sneaky heat that builds with every bite--comfort food with an edge. Dessert? The Chili-Chocolate Lava Cake was a clever play on spice and sweetness, though a touch more heat would have made it truly memorable. Value - 4/5 For the quality, portion sizes, and creative menu, prices are fair. You're paying for a unique culinary experience, not just a meal. Final Verdict: 4.5/5 Triple Pepper delivers on its promise of bold, fiery flavors while maintaining balance. A few minor tweaks--perhaps a bit more fearlessness with spice in some dishes--could elevate it to legendary status. If you love heat with depth, this spot is worth the visit. Pro Tip: If you're unsure about spice levels, ask your server--they can guide you based on your heat tolerance. And don't skip the Firecracker Shrimp! read more

I went to Triple pepper's newest location in bellaire for my uncles birthday. They have an original location in the montrose area. They specialize in Sichuan Chinese food. We got the fish fillet with rattan pepper, scallion beef, chili pepper with wonton, chili stir fried with century egg, and fried lotus root. The fish fillets were tender and good but if you're looking for spice then try ordering another dish. They do give a lot of fish in this dish. The beef scallion was our favorite dish of the night. The beef was cooked perfectly tender and was accompanied by a pleasant crunch from the stir fried onions. The wontons were just ok, not that spicy and the wrapper was not too firm. The century egg appetizer was something new, I didn't know what to expect with it but I actually ended up liking it. It's creamy and was actually the spiciest dish that we ordered. The fried lotus roots were tasteless, just something crunchy to eat. I wouldn't order it again. The entrees we ordered were good but some of the appetizers we got were misses. read more

Excellent and very authentic sichuan food with unusually good service for Chinatown. More "ma" and more "la" than mala sichuan a few doors down!! We ordered the dry pot mixed veggies, dry pot mushrooms (these specific mushrooms we have a hard time finding elsewhere), beef slices, green sichuan pepper fish, and crispy spicy chicken. Everything was delicious, would not be out of place on a best of US list. We love this place! read more

Great tasty food! Only complaint was that for the 4 cold dishes we ordered, at that price point (especially for the $12.95 Jellyfish, $7.95 Boiled Pork, & $7.95 Drunken Chicken), there should be more food. For our party of four, we each got around two bites per cold dish. For $18, the kidney dish was also less than expected BUT the taste (for being kidney) was great--not at all "fishy"/bloody/没有肉腥味!!--so the price point for that dish was definitely worth it for us! Fish Fillet with Pickled Vegetables was also pretty worth it for $18!! It has vermicelli noodles, so it's pretty filling Most dishes could be adjusted in terms of spiciness and for the dishes we tried, there was no MSG added :) No sweets on the menu though! :( My party and I came at 8:15 PM on a Thursday, so we were extremely happy to be seated. Service was excellent!! They were all super kind and courteous, and the food arrived pretty fast (albeit, we were only one of three dining parties at the time). Ambience of the store was pretty nice, too! There's enough small tables for a more intimate atmosphere while there's also a few big tables for large party reservations. Overall, we would come again if we're craving authentic, spicy Sichuan area (川菜) food, but we would like to recommend them to increase the portion sizes for a few of their dishes and hopefully incorporate a dessert menu. read more

Went to the just-opened location on Richmond Avenue in Afton Oaks and I will be back! Very nice decor inside and spacious. Service was prompt and efficient. Place was not crowded at all. To start, we ordered edamame and scallion pancakes which were tasty and cooked perfectly. Table ordered fried rice, Mongolian beef, pork ribs with cilantro, hunan chicken and general Tso's chicken. All were fantastic. Although I do like a little spice (heat) I was a little concerned that all the food might be too hot pepper-wise, but not the case. Only one dish had a one-pepper rating and it did have a kick to it. read more

This Sichuan restaurant opened 2 weeks ago. Love the decor and the place gets crowded at around 12 noon. We had 3 appetizers, the cucumber, lotus roots, and slice beef and OX tongue (which is my least favorite). Look very different from the menu and it is a bit dry. Of the 3 appetizers, the lotus roots are my favorite. The frog dish was well seasoned, but very few pieces of frog meats. I preferred my stir fry intestines to be crispy, other than that, is well seasoned. I would certainly go back and try other dishes on the menu again. read more

The food we ordered were a fried fish dish and a chicken dish, both spicy with ma la peppers. They were both excellent! Service was mostly good, but one of the waiters needs to be educated not to reach across in front of of guests, but to come from behind on the side. Small but important thing. The ambiance and decor were tastefully done. Will be back for sure to enjoy more excellent spicy cooking read more
