Reviews for Noodles Etc in Chicago, IL
Compared to some fancy restaurants with 5-hour lineups, this place has better flavors and way faster serving speed. The internal... design and music are very cozy. They haven?t raised their prices that much at all since two years ago, but it?s the same food ofgreat quality and taste <3 Read more
Noodles Etc. a local U of Chicago spot for fresh soups, noodles and appetizers. They offer dine in, carry out or delivery.... Service feels a bit like a diner. Get a paper menu, decide, order, then sit. Kitchen is fast and the staff attentive. We orderedShuMai, Pho and Ramen. Shu Mai was steamed to perfect taste and consistency. would have liked a bit of ginger in the dippingsauce. Soup broth although very tasty were the same for both our Pho and Ramen. Interested enough we felt the Ramen needed a bitmore love. Lunchtime was lively with patrons coming and going, would still recommend Noodles Etc. for a Hyde Park noodle fix. Read more
I had the pad woo sen, Singapore noodles, and the curry puff. I personally don?t do good with menus that have a to many options... so I ended up getting one for dine in and one to-go. The dine in portion was huge. So I really didn?t need the to-go. Both wereas described. No complaints with anything not matching up. The curry puff did have much more ?puff? than I expected. That?s alot of crust! I ended up taking most of it off but what was left was flavorful and I?d order it again. Wouldn?t order theSingapore noodle again? the curry just didn?t do it for me. But the space is calm, clean, & inviting & staff were friendly so itwas a good overall experience. Read more
We order 4 dishes for lunch on Wednesday. It was carry out and wedid not have to wait for long: - beef pad see ew (average,... small portion) - chicken pad thai (mushy, broken noodles, oily, not so flavorful) - tofu pad thai (less oily, less brokennoodles, slightly more flavorful compared to the chicken pad thai) - mixed veggies with tofu (average) There seems to be a greatvariation in quality and portion size despite being the same dish. Nice space to dine in and quick service though. Read more
My family and I tried our first time at Noodles Etc and it was great! ?Pictured fist is the Lo Mein with chicken added. It was... so yummy and the sauce was very tasty. I like thinner noodles so this was right up my alley ?Pictured second is the Pho. It wasso full of flavor and plenty of portion ?Pictured last is the Yaki Udon. These were a thicker more chewy noodle. This was veryfilling and packed with flavor. I recommend trying them out! They?re so good and the ambiance is low key. You order your meal atthe front and they bring it to you at the table if you?re dining in. Hope you enjoy Read more
The quality of the food is subpar and lacks flavor. The portions are very small and takes 2 hours to arrive. I would not... recommend ordering takeout from this place. There are a few thai food places around the area i would consider instead. Read more
One of the best Pad Thai I?ve ever had! Went here so much when I was a student and it holds a special place in my heart. ... Recommend the noodle stir fries, the curry noodle, and the gyoza appetizer. They had a 10% student discount but I?m unsure ifthey still have it! Read more
Good tasting noodles at a reasonable price for the area and clean inside of the restaurant. I got the drunken noodles and was... happy with the taste and spiciness of the food. There's been better drunken noodles, but not at this reasonable of a price andrapid service. It would be nice to have this location stay open a bit later as I accidentally came near the end of theirbusiness day (sorry!) thinking that they would still be open for a few more hours. Would definitely come back to eat here again! Read more
