DH Noodle & Grill is conveniently located in a popular shopping plaza right next to H Mart. So after your H Mart run, you can come here for your noodle fix.
We visited during their soft opening and were really impressed. You can order via QR code on your phone or there is a physical menu. The website is straight forward, easy to use, and features photos. They offer a lot of options like dumplings, steamed buns, noodle soups, stir fry dishes, and even dessert.
The food took about 5-6 minutes to come out which was really fast and impressive. We came during the soft opening so they were kind enough to give us steamed buns and steamed pork buns on the house for us to try. The pork bun was super flavorful, with each bite you get a strong soy saucey flavor with the meaty pork. The steamed bun was plain but surely fluffy and soft like a good basic bread.
*The lanzhou spicy beef noodle soup was fabulous and incredibly aromatic. The soup base was slightly sweet and just mildy spicy to me with notes of peppercorn that danced around my tongue. I ordered wide noodles but it wasn't as wide as I expected. Next time I would order extra wide. Now the noodles were super soft and tender. The beef was soft and not too fatty. The cilantro really adds that freshness and crunchy texture.
*Cumin lamb fried noodle was decent by itself but once you add their chili oil, it was SO GOOD! I ordered the original noodles and they were chewy and soft. The flavor was on the milder blander side, but the cumin just hits you in the face. If you're a fan of cumin and lamb, this dish is for you.
*Shrimp and chives dumplings- I enjoyed the chili oil sauce that came on the side. The vinegar added that zest and cut of acidity that really adds that strong contrast in flavor. The shrimp was snappy and slightly sweet.
A noodle chart or some kind of visual would be a great addition so that customers know what kind of noodle they would want to order.
In comparison to QQ Noodle which is my favorite noodle spot, DH is different because they offer more selection in terms of sides/appetizers and more noodle options. The noodles here don't have that chewy QQ texture, but instead they are silky soft and tender. I do feel like DH has more depth of flavor as well and is much cleaner than QQ. Its safe to say that I will be a regular here from now on.
