A build-your-own Mongolian grill and sushi concept is staking out new ground along I-45 in Shenandoah, taking over a space previously known as a local grill restaurant. Super Yummy Mongolian Stir Fry & Sushi has listed a Shenandoah address at 19053 I-45, Suite H, signaling the chain's next Texas expansion even as no opening date has been locked in.
From Paradise Grill to a New Grill Concept
The Shenandoah location will occupy the former home of Paradise Grill, according to information from Visit Shenandoah cited by Community Impact. That outlet reports the restaurant is expected to serve sushi, Super Yummy Classic Stir Fry and Build-Your-Own Yummy Bowls, though Community Impact also notes the chain will open soon without pinning down a firm date. Super Yummy's own website already lists the Shenandoah address, according to My Neighborhood News, which adds that no official grand-opening date has been announced.
Per the same account, the project calls for an interior remodel and a change of occupancy from retail use to restaurant use. A state filing referenced in that report lists the project at about 5,600 square feet, with construction currently scheduled to run from October 2 through May 2, 2027 — a timeline that reflects scheduled work rather than a confirmed opening.
How the Build-Your-Own Concept Works
Super Yummy's signature format lets diners pick their own ingredients before the bowl is cooked to order, according to the same My Neighborhood News report, which describes a concept where diners largely decide what goes into the meal themselves. My Neighborhood News first reported the Shenandoah project plans on August 21, 2026, before Community Impact and WhatNow Houston. WhatNow Houston, which reached out to Super Yummy founder Eric Ye, noted the chain cooks customer-selected ingredients on a round grill heated to 600 degrees. That outlet also detailed signature dishes including the Mongolian Combo, Mongolian Empire and Warriors Chicken with udon noodles, along with sushi and sashimi options such as the California roll, Black Angel roll, Shaggy Dog and Sushi for 2.
Diners can choose from proteins including chicken, beef, pork, shrimp and sausage, paired with fresh vegetables, noodles or rice, seasoning and sauces, according to WhatNow Houston. The chain's own website echoes that build-it-yourself pitch, describing bold stir-fry flavor, fresh ingredients and a hot grill experience, and explaining that customers choose a starch, protein, vegetables, seasoning and sauce for each bowl, per WhatNow's reporting.
A Growing Texas Footprint
Super Yummy traces its roots back to the Spring area, where a 2015 profile cited by My Neighborhood News reported the company then had restaurants in Spring and Tomball. WhatNow Houston reports the chain was founded by Eric Ye in the early 2020s and now lists five Texas locations on its official website, plus an additional location in Tennessee, with the Shenandoah project representing its sixth Texas eatery. WhatNow's reporting lists current Texas locations in Nacogdoches, Lake Jackson, Shenandoah and Houston.
Super Yummy is also preparing a location near Willowbrook Mall, planned for 7615 FM 1960 Road between In-N-Out Burger and Chili's, according to a separate My Neighborhood News report. That account describes a $700,000 renovation project in the former Kirin Japanese Seafood & Sushi Buffet space, also about 5,600 square feet, with work scheduled to begin in mid-July 2025 and wrap up by the end of January 2026. The same report lists existing Super Yummy locations in Tomball, Nacogdoches and Lake Jackson, underscoring the chain's steady push across the Houston region even as the Shenandoah timeline remains unsettled.
