Superbowl Noodle House Closes Permanently Today

Superbowl Noodle House, located at 785 Rockville Pike Suite in the Ritchie Center, will be closing permanently on Sunday, March 31st according to a sign in the window of the restaurant (photo below).

The sign on the door (picture below by @dmvbobabae) states:

“Dear Customers, Thank you for all your support these years. Due to consistent staff shortages and lease expiration, we will close the restaurant as of March 31. At this time, we do not have any plans to relocate or reopen at a later time. We offer our most sincere gratitude and appreciation.

-Superbowl Management Team”

The Washington Post once provided a detailed description of the restaurant, calling it “A Rockville noodle house where you can eat across Asia — and do it well.”

Once inside Superbowl Noodle House, the dish options expand almost exponentially, numbering more than 125. You’ll find appetizers, dim sum and entrees drawn from Korean, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Taiwanese, Chongqing, Shandong and Japanese cuisines. Other cooking traditions, no doubt, lurk inside the 10-plus-page menu, hiding behind awkwardly constructed names that don’t tip off their origins. Some menus even have sticky notes tucked inside, each scrawled with Chinese characters, prices and an occasional hand-drawn chili pepper.
