Tiger Noodle House is a place that my boyfriend and I have been wanting to try for a while, and since we were finally in the area we decided to visit for a late lunch.
They have a great menu with many choices. As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciate that there were so many gluten-gluten free choices. I almost couldn't make up my mind on what I wanted to try! My boyfriend also had a hard time deciding too, as there were many items he wanted to try.
The menu prices seemed really fair and affordable, and since it is a very far drive for us we decided to order a lot more than we normally would. We ordered the Tea Leaf Smoked Duck, the Pepper Chicken, General Tso's Chicken, and the Full House Pot. It also came with steamed rice. All of these items were gluten-free, so we shared them family-style.
The duck was delicious. The pepper chicken was flavorful and had some mild spice to it (on the menu it had one chili symbol). The General Tso's chicken also had some spice to it (also one chili symbol on the menu) and was quite tasty (this turned out to be my favorite item). The Full House pot was impressive. It was served with a flame underneath it and was just beautiful. It had several types of meat, and was quite spicy (it had two chili symbols on the menu) - it actually made parts of my mouth feel numb, haha!
Trying the different items was a lot of fun. They were all so very flavorful. The food was excellent quality and the portions were generous. The food here is much better than Pei Wei or P.F. Changs. Even though we ordered twice as much as we normally would, we spent about $70 on the food (and we brought home enough leftovers which will last us for several more meals). Two people could eat here very comfortably on half of what we spent. We went a little overboard since we live so far away and have been wanting to try this restaurant for quite some time.
The service was also excellent. The staff was knowledgeable about which items were gluten-free. They also never let our drinks get halfway empty, which was pretty amazing. The restaurant and bathrooms were very clean. The environment was very pleasant.
Overall, we both loved this restaurant very much and now consider it a favorite. We look forward to visiting again next time we are down that way.
