Reviews for Noodle Station in Daly City, CA
This was a disappointment. The flavors were totally off on the Laksa and were bland. We got the duck noodles which also very... bland and dry. I would skip this place Read more
Super yummy laksa. A bit tucked away and not very busy at all. But the laksa is one of the best you can find in the Bay Area.... 10/10 would recommend. Read more

Highly recommend. Excellent food and service paired with nice design. Hard to find places of this quality with this price point... these days. Will def come back soon Read more
The menu consists of noodle dishes from China and the Chinese diaspora across Southeast Asia. While appealing, the broad... geography of cuisines covered may explain why the taste doesn’t seem to be 100%. The vegetarian spring rolls were unique inthat they were filled with bean sprouts and wood ear mushrooms and wrapped in tofu skins. But they came out greasy and theaccompanying duck sauce a disappointment. Why duck sauce? The HK shrimp dumpling noodle soup got everything right, but thebroth itself was not the most appetizing and was hard to finish. Read more
This place confuses me a little bit because their presentation is always 10 stars- their dishes, their broths, their outward... textures always look and seem solidly amazing. Always. I don't think I've seen a questionable or bad photo from this place outthere! That's pretty incredible. However, the taste of their noodles and soups just seem lacking or somehow just don't quitehit-the-mark. My laksa house special curry dish for example, was made with a thin rice vermicelli noodle that doesn't absorbsauce/flavor at all, so my experience of this dish involved alternating drinking broth, eating toppings, and consuming 'dry'noodles, none of which can really be considered that appealing when separate from each other. The flavor of the broth wasintriguing, with lemongrass and other rich flavors which were interesting but not something I'd personally crave. I enjoyed myhusband's roast duck with dried egg noodles in XO sauce more, but we both agreed that the specific sauce mix was a bit salty andthe flavor of this dish was generally off from our personal preferences. All that said, the price and portion sizes were good,the dishes looked good, and I can't dismiss the possibility that these possibly taste perfect to someone perhaps of a Laotian orother background with a different flavor profile than we have... then again, it could just all come down to one guyexperimenting with flavors in the back kitchen, who doesn't have it quite down yet... In any case, their flavors just weren'tfor us, unfortunately, and we won't be coming back. Read more
Update: Came during shelter in place and still great! We ordered the duck noodles and chicken fat noodle soup. Both were just as... good as we remembered. We also tried their fries. I wasn’t expecting much, but they actually gave a big portion! Highlyrecommend the duck noodles. I came here on a Tuesday night with a friend. Parking can be a little tricky as it's in a prettyresidential area. It's pretty small, but super clean. We were seated immediately, with a few people eating there also. Weordered the jingchuan dumplings, roast duck dried egg noodles, and the IPOH shredded chicken fat noodle soup. The dumplings werea great starter. They weren't spicy at all. The noodles came shortly after. The roast duck noodles came with a soup. The noodleswere great. The duck wasn't super fatty, but was still really good. My friend really enjoyed her bowl of noodles as well. Thebowls are pretty big, but we ended up finishing everything. I would definitely recommend this place! The noodles are reallygood and the ingredients seem fresh. Parking can be tricky, but definitely a convenient place for some noodle soup. Read more
I got duck noodle take out. The noodle got stuck together and the flavor is not strong enough. The duck is quite good though.... There is no bone and the meat is not fatty. Maybe it would taste better in the restaurant. I also want to try the noodle withbroth. Read more
