4. San Dong Noodle House

San Dong Noodle House, a Chinese and Taiwanese spot that offers noodles and more in Sharpstown, is another low-priced go-to, with four stars out of 498 Yelp reviews. Head over to 9938 Bellaire Blvd. to see for yourself.

Yelper Richard H. wrote, "If you want quick, cheap and delicious, this is the spot. Dumplings are good but way better in beef noodle soup on a cold day. Fried chicken or pork chop is always a good option."
