This place is so underrated. Tucked right beside a McDonald's and gas station you would never think you would get authentic noodle soup dishes. But they are delicious. I had the braised beef noodle soup and it was delicious. Parking is usually not an issue and you order via QR code and pay up front. The server is friendly and often plays NBA games. Portion size is also very good. Just note don't order the spicy version unless you REALLY want a kick. read more

CA NOODLE - Spicy braised beef noodle soup with flat noodle - Noodles Near Me - Pleasanton, California

I've been dying to try this place. I kept hearing about the spicy short rib soup. I can totally see why people would love this, but this wasnt for me. The broth was oily and it was hard to enjoy the flavors. The short rib was so tender though. And I loved the bok choy. I ordered this online for pick up and I loveeeeed how they packaged the soup. It comes in a huge container but they separate the broth and noodles. Then when you get home you just dump the noddles in the bottom. Extra star for that! I still think this restaurant is worth trying and I plan on going back to try something else. read more

I came here after seeing the high Yelp ratings, but unfortunately it was a disappointing experience. The braised beef noodle soup had a strong cardamom flavor that felt quite unusual and overpowering for a traditional Chinese style. It might work for some people, but it wasn't what I expected from a classic beef noodle soup. More concerning was the beef in the stir-fried noodles. The beef did not taste fresh -- I took one bite and couldn't continue. It had the texture of pre-sliced cold beef that had been reheated, and I even found a clump of thinly sliced cold-cut style beef mixed into the noodles. The only dish that was solid was the liangpi, which tasted fresh. Overall, I really wanted to like this place given the ratings, but the unstable quality and flavor didn't meet my expectation. read more

I'm not sure if I just ordered the wrong things, but I did not enjoy my experience. Though we came and got seated right away, we were told to scan the QR code to order. The server didn't really come by to ask us if we had any questions or if this was our first time, so we blindly ordered. I went off of your pictures and order the QQ dry noodles and the soup dumplings. The dumpling was overcooked, and there was no soup in the dumpling and the dry noodles, I could not even finish. The noodles was my fault for sure because I didn't ask any questions. It was mala spicy, and the numbing was just really off for me. I didn't even finish my plate and left hungry. read more

This was booked marked at the recommended of a friend and finally tried it for dinner on a chilly night this week. I called ahead to see how the wait was and person said he'd try to hold the table. Arrived 30 min later and the restaurant was full. Waited less than 5 min before being seated. I noticed there were just chopsticks in the utensil caddy and a box of napkins to help ourselves with. Water soon came after. Scanned the QR code on the wall behind us. Chose all their popular items. Beef noodle soup, tomato egg beef noodles, potstickers with pork, and ofc XLB (bc you have to try it where ever you see it on the menu) Beef noodle soup was the 1st to come. Needed to ask for bowls as we wanted to share. No extra spoons were given as per usual. I immediately noticed how thick the oil was in the soup. Usually THAT much oil is skimmed out before serving. Not this place. Distributed 3 servings for everyone to try hoping that the oil was not sit wrong in my stomach. IYKYK. (Middle thick) Noodles were nice and chewy and al dente. The flavors of the soup was actually tasty sans the film that spread over my lips, needing napkins to constantly wipe before my next bite. There were some of pieces of beef that were tough while other pieces were nice and tender. It came with a few pieces of bok choy, was nice to help cut down the grease. 3/5 Next came the tomato egg beef noodles. Instead of beef flank it was the same beef brisket (shank?) as the beef noodle soup. That was a nice change. I was so excited to try it as this dish is usually my favorite at place like Noodle St in So Cal. Tomato was nice and tender and not mushy. Egg had lots of flavor. Same beef as the other noodle soup hit or miss of tender pieces. Then the thick noodles. Same chewy texture. This is where it all went wrong for me. The flavor. I tasted Five Spice. Then the mala oily sour spice. The film that lingers and sticks on your lips and tingles throughout the whole meal. The flavors didn't taste quite right. It's like they used the mala base and sweeten it. Personally, not my cup of tea. I couldn't even finish my portion. 2.5/5 Next came the potstickers and XLB Potstickers were essentially the regular size boiled dumplings, pan fried. They looked very promising however the taste for me missed the mark. Meat filling was too lean and the skin wasn't as tender and soft. 3/5 The XLB came out piping hot. The juice held up pretty well. The flavor wasn't bad but it also wasn't my favorite either. 3/5 Throughout this whole time we were trying to flag down the servers for extra spoons and plates to eat our dumplings. We were only able to get extra spoons which weren't the cleanliness with still an oily film lingering. We basically just hand cupped each mouthful of dumpling to prevent the juices from dripping onto the table. No preset table settings. And the utensil was empty besides the chopsticks. By this point there a line forming out the door. I needed to get rid of this sour spicy taste that needed some Dawn soap to cut the grease off. Overall, aside from the thick cut noodles, everything else was just okay. There were these girls sitting at the next table who ordered beef chow mein. That actually looked good as it was my 1st choice but wanted to try the tomato egg instead. We know how that turned out. It sounds like many people like this place, earning them 4+ stars on Yelp. To each their own I guess but it wasn't for me read more

This is not the first time we came here, but I forgot to write a review last time. My husband and I were not sure where to go for lunch, so decided to return to this little place. This place used to be a Taiwanese restaurant years ago. I was not too thrilled about it despite my love for Taiwanese food... I do not know when did they change hand. Anyway we ordered three items since it was just the two of us . We had the spicy beef noodle soup, the pig ear appetizers, and the potsticker. The beef noodle soup was good. We selected the wide flat noodles, and it was very tasty. It was not as spicy as I have expected, but with a nice kick. Would be better if a bit more vegetables. The pig ears appetizer was great. Many restaurants will have fillers in there like they will have a thin layers of the protein on top and whole bunch of shredded cucumber in the bottom. This place the entire plate was full of pig years. I really really enjoyed it. The potstickers filling was pork, shrimp, and leeks. The size of each potstickers was on the small side, but tasty. The service was OK. Nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about either. The place was small and as with most Chinese place, a bit noisy. Overall, we had a pretty good experience and yes, we will be back here. read more

Today was the day! I was craving something warm during the cold weather we have been having. I've been telling myself for a while now that I needed to try CA Noodle because I pass by pretty often when my son goes to gymnastics down the street. The service was fast once I found out you order using the QR code at the table, and the food came out quickly. I got the - Braised beef soup regular noodles($16.80) Fungus salad($7.99) Qianmai Roujiamo($7.99) Spicy Oil Dry Noodle with Pork medium wide noodles($16.30) The braised beef noodle broth was really flavorful and the noodles had a nice chewy texture. I did end up adding some chili oil, which gave it a little extra kick. The fungus salad was nice and refreshing to go with the hot soup. It definitely helped with the heat since the broth stayed hot for what felt like forever, which is a good thing. My husband got the spicy dry noodles with pork and said it was good and enjoyed the heat from the chili. The Qianmai Roujiamo reminded me of a banh mi like flavor mixed with a pulled pork texture. It tasted good, but it's probably not something I would order again. I would go back again for the braised beef noodle soup and maybe try the cucumbers next time, unless I'm craving the fungus salad. It was really good and I might randomly crave it because of the light dressing they use. read more

Came here during lunch on a weekday and it was surprisingly pretty busy. We didn't have to wait but several people came in to eat after us. The portions are huge! The noodles are never-ending. I would say this is one of the best braised beef noodle soup places around the area - East Bay. The only downside is that the soup is a little oily in my opinion. read more

CA NOODLE - Braised Beef Noodle Soup - Noodles Near Me - Pleasanton, California

Noodles are always delicious, but wished for more chew. Not busy during lunch. Order through QR code, once you finish eating, you pay at the counter. Order a Spicy Beef Noodle Soup ($17.97 with tax ). This will clear up your sinuses! The soup was really boiling hot, so be careful. The noodle were not as chewy as some other noodle places. The bok choy goes well with the chili oil soup. I would want more of the beef flavor in the soup as well too. Definitely would try their tan tan noodles next since that seems popular. read more

Can't believe I only heard of this place recently - and now it's already one of my go-to spots for comforting chinese noodle soup. I love their tomato beef noodle soup, it is rich, well seasoned and full of flavor. The broth feels hearty without being greasy and the noodles have a great texture that pairs well with the tomato beef. They also have great appetizers like the house special cold noodles, which is refreshing and packed with flavors. Portions are generous, service is fast. Even though they can get busy at peak times, it moves quickly and the food is worth the visit. read more

Solid Chinese noodle spot in Pleasanton. I was under the weather when I ate here, and it hit the spot. The hand-pulled noodles have a good texture and chew, the broths are rich without being too heavy. I got the braised beef noodle soup. The place is casual and cozy, perfect for a quick lunch or chill dinner. Service is fast and friendly. read more

We had tried CA noodle for the first time last week and had a mixed thoughts on the food. The restaurant itself is small and quaint. No frill but kept clean. Server was good and on top of helping customers and getting orders out. There was only one server so he was working really hard to get all the tables served and helped in a timely manner. Ordering is done ourselves through a QR code and if you want a hard copy of the menu you can grab their togo menu We got their Sour Mustard fish noodle soup. The soup was a clear and light broth with pickled greens mixed in. The noodles were fresh and perfectly chewy or (aka QQ). The fish was delicious and cooked well and not over done. Overall 5/5 for this noodle soup. Second item we got was the dry chicken noodle with flat noodles. We were not a fan of this at all. The noodles were drenched in sauce and was almost inedible and salty. The chicken pieces were quite dry and hard. The sauce had a bit of Mala or numbing flavor is to it which wasn't pleasant to the palate at all. This dish would need to be a 1/5 for me. Never again will we order any of the dry noodle dishes. Hoping to come back to try some of their other noodles and possibly try to reevaluate based on other dishes. I'm hoping the unpleasant dry noodle dish is just a one off and the others dishes are better. read more

This location is a bit tucked away but it's right behind McDonald's. I ate an early dinner so it was very quiet and nobody else was here except the staff. Nice decor and the staff were prompt. Fungus salad 5/5 - scrumptious. Served cold with bits of onions, green bell peppers, and cilantro with a light vinaigrette. If you love mushrooms, woodear mushrooms have that distinct crunch and chew. Perfect I'm between slurps of broth and noodles. Lamb Noodle soup 5/5 - amazing. Simple, clean flavorful broth. It wasn't overpowering. Plenty of tender fall off the bone lamb prices mixed in. Chili oil noodle with Pork 3/5 - it's in the name but I didn't realize how oily it was. There's literally a pool of oil at the bottom for you to mix. This was considered a dry noodle and I mistakenly thought I ordered it as a soup. The flavor did not jump out and it wasn't as fragrant even with the amount of oil. Their pork is pre-marinated and does have a little bit of szechuan if you're not a fan. I could barely taste any. I would come back to try other soup noodle dishes. Their serving bowls are big enough to feed two people. read more

I've tried a few different Chinese noodle spots (OK noodle, Ox 9, 88 baobao) and CA Noodle knocks them all out of the park. Really savory and perfectly firm and chewy noodles. Our favorite is the chili oil pork noodles...too good. Definitely one of our go-to's. Make sure to order the wide noodles! - chili oil pork noodles: 10/10. Perfectly savory. Too easy to inhale and no additional sauces necessary. - sour spicy pork noodles: not bad, but not as savory as the chili oil pork option. It's barely sour and not as flavorful and has veggie additions. - hot and spicy beef noodle soup: one of the better Chinese beef noodle soups I've had, but this dish just isn't my thing (I'm camp BBH). Just tastes like bland broth with oil. read more

Started out very ambivalent but this is now one of my favorite restaurants and a comfort food for me. I love the soup noodles, particularly the beef and spicy beef noodles. The beef chunks are so tender and soup is so flavorful. Not so much the chili oil noodles, the spicy level is never consistent and flavor is just okay. Noodle quality is excellent across the dishes. Sit down, order on the QR code, dishes come out quickly, eat, pay at the front. Don't wear a white shirt unless you're okay with chili oil and soup stains. read more

What an incredible restaurant! Small inside, but well laid out with a nice atmosphere and super easy ordering with a table-based QR code. The noodles and the broths here are incredible!! They are looong, because they are hand-pulled, so don't be afraid to ask for scissors if you are sharing! The braised beef has incredible flavor whether soup, dry, or any other dish. Just get there early! read more

Restaurant is located in a small quiet plaza so we were surprised to walk in and find almost all the tables were already filled. We lucked out on claiming the last table. Ambiance was spacious even though the restaurant was small. There was a QR code to scan for menu and ordering. The two dishes we picked were the soybean paste (pork) noodle, and the chicken mushroom noodle soup. Loved that you could pick what type of noodles for the dish! The soybean paste came in a separate container from the noodles so that we could adjust how much we want to put on. I'm so glad the sauce was separated from noodles since the soybean sauce was a bit strong and salty, a little bit goes a long way. The mushroom chicken noodles came in a generous portion. I wasn't a huge fan of the soybean paste or the soup base of the chicken soup, but the noodles were super fresh and good, bouncy and chewy. The chicken was tender and flavorful and I loved that dish came with a good amount of veggies. I would be open to trying other dishes the next time I come. One of the bowls they gave me was a little dirty and some of the chopsticks still have a food smell, but I did a quick hot water rinse and they were ok to use (or you can ask for a new bowl too :D) . No tummy aches going home. I would be open to trying dumplings and other dishes next time. read more

Came on a weekday for lunch around 1pm. Via the QR code, we ordered two beef noodle soups (1 spicy 1 not spicy). Within 10 minutes, the food came out. The spicy beef noodle soup felt more like a bowl of spicy chili oil. My partner's non-spicy beef noodle soup was still a little spicy for him. The beef was not impressive. The noodles were chewy but about the only great thing about the dish. read more

I had such a huge craving for soup dumplings and found out about this place on tik tok. I really wanted to love it but just thought it was ok. The dumplings were lukewarm which made me wonder how fresh they were? My husband also ordered one of their soups and we did love the noodles and felt like they were cooked exceptionally well but the broth and meat flavoring was not our fav. I know they have a lot of great reviews so I won't say that this is a place to skip but we just didn't particularly enjoy our meal. Hoping it was an off day. read more

The noodle hype is real! We were passing by and decided to stop for a weekend lunch. The restaurant was pretty busy, but there were a few open tables. There is a QR code posted on the wall nearby the table, where you can scan and enter your order on your phone. This was actually very easy to do. The website also mentioned some of their most popular dishes, making it even easier to order. The food came out very quickly and at the correct temperatures. Staff were polite, however, they did not seem to speak much English. They had no trouble understanding basic requests and were friendly. We started out with two appetizers. Sweet Sour Cucumbers ($8.99) were very crisp and fresh. Plenty of garlic and a pinch of sweetness. Pretty refreshing. I personally prefer sour only and no sweetness, but it was just a touch. Fungus Salad ($7.99) was my fave. This one had delicious, crisp, large wood ear fungus. Marinade was absolutely the perfect blend of sour and savory. Soooo good! Portion sizes were generous and we had plenty to bring home. The Braised Beef Noodle Soup ($16.30) with medium sized noodles was excellent. Highly recommend this dish, especially if you like things like scrumptious slow cooked meat, such as short ribs. The rich broth reminded me of the classic Chinese clay pot, with five spice flavors. It is not spicy. It had a generous amount of meat along with the chewy noodles. So delicious! We got a Tomato Egg Dry Noodle ($15.20) for the kiddos, but we liked it too. Wish the tomatoes were riper, but it is too early in the season. Portions size was great on this one too. The restaurant itself is small, but clean, and decorated in a simple, modern style. Flat panel TV was showing a Chinese cooking program. We would love to return and try out some other dishes! read more

The place is in a strip behind a gas station. It's not a very big place but it gets pretty busy. We came for Thursday dinner and all tables were filled. The person who works there doesn't speak any English it seems like. He tries but couldn't really answer our questions . Spicy beef noodle is really really good. It's not too spicy. The best part other than the melt in your mouth beef is the noodle. I picked regular noodle and it was nice and bouncy. Not overcooked. The leftover bowl has a "shelf" to separate the noodles from the broth. Which is great if you order to go. However, leftovers aren't too great because the noodle does get pretty mushy. So eat it there for the best texture. Oh the price on the online ordering system is different than the physical menu. I can't figure out which price they charge me at because he didn't give me itemized receipt. Only the credit card printout. read more

Came in the afternoon, prompt service with the tea which was nice and flavorful. Barcode scan for the menu & ordering. I ordered the braised beef noodle. Noodles were fresh, nice bite too it. Broth was good, but greasier than what I'm used to. Beef was tender, could have used some more meat. Ordered the cucumber, very refreshing & garlicky. A little sweet. Also ordered side of mustard greens, added another level of flavor to my noods. More pickled than I'm used to but still good. Cute & simple set up inside. What I don't understand is the price. All that after tax cost me $30. Maybe because it's Dublin, I don't know. Had a mom & pop type feel to it which I support read more

Located in a plaza with plenty of parking. Friendly staff and quick service! Highly recommend the braised beef noodle soup with middle noodle at CA Noodle. The other types are also good but the middle type noodle is very chewy texture and goes very well with the broth. Broth is very flavorful and the beef is very tender. Appetizer: Beef Tripe with Garlic Sauce is good and has a bit of a numbing spice. They offer 3 types of noodles: - regular: a small round noodle - *middle: my favorite! it's a wide noodle - wide: an even wider noodle compared to the middle, which is also good read more

Favorite. Noodle. EVER. I've been here multiple times since, but I still remember biting into these noodles for the first time. I was mind blown by the perfect chew of the noodles.

The cucumbers are also super refreshing and well flavored. I have since tried to find reason to stop in Pleasanton just so I can eat here read more

I'm still in shock to be honest. I had a mom & me hangout day and one thing about my mom is that she's always down to try a new place and so I looked up "noodles" on Yelp because it was cold and windy and a warm bowl of noodles sound like the cure all. A quick search led me to CA NOODLE nearby and the reviews were so positive so I was excited to come through. On a Wednesday afternoon, there was no one here which didn't seem like a good sign, but again it was a weekday so I brushed it off and sat down. First off, we came in while the worker was clipping his nails - not completely off putting but not something you would walk in on at a restaurant often either. Regardless, we stayed. Ordering is easy via the QR code at the table and he brought over hot tea for us. We ordered the pig ears (spicy, but way too salty), xiao long bao (overcooked, meat was tough, no juice), braised beef noodle soup (tender meat, noodles good consistency, broth tasted a little odd), and the braised spare rib noodle soup (meat wasn't tender, noodles were good consistency, broth tasted odd). Service was also kind of meh. Despite us being 1 of 3 tables, the worker spent a lot of time on his phone and only came by when we flagged him down. Overall, maybe it was an off day for them. Maybe you're not meant to go to a noodle restaurant and order things not noodles. I'm not sure, but it wasn't a great meal and I can't say I'd come back. read more

Always out favorite noodle place for some dinners and weekend lunches. The noodles are homemade and the chicken and pork dishes with wide flat noodles are our favorite. The service is good. The restaurant isn't that big so you may experience waits for 30-60 minutes for a table during busy time and another 30 minutes for food. The kitchen staff only have a few people so you'll have to be patient if you go here. We have visited every 2-3 times a month. Great place with reasonable prices. read more

Was skeptical coming in but I'm glad my wife insisted! First off entering it was busy during lunchtime. But seated right away. Served hot tea while we waited for drink and ordered food on the QR scanning of their menu. Fast service! Got our food promptly after maybe 7-10 mins or so. Cucumber garlic whatever, man that was Really good with everything I was eating, must have during luncheon. Then the NOOOOODLES! Omg they were so long, hesitated to ask for scissors thinking it was disrespectful to cut them shorter, but handled them just fine. 10/10 Braised beef noodle soup was a 10/10 for me, will try the spicy next.

The restaurant is small with maybe 8 tables. Parking lot is pretty busy because it's shared with McDonald's. The service was incredibly slow. You place your order with QR code. It took almost 35 minutes for one dish to come out. And it was basically 10 min in between each dish. I've never been to a Chinese place that took so long to bring out food. It looked like they were experiencing some kind of leak in the kitchen or something because all the employees were sweeping in the back and there was some over flow water that leaked into the dining area. This is probably the reason for the delay in service. The food itself was good - specifically the chilli oil noodles and the beef tomato egg noodle. The meat was cooked very well and the noodles had a lot of flavor. However the XLB was one of the worst I've had - don't order this. There was no soup in the soup dumping. 3 dishes for $54 - somewhat expensive. read more

Hubby has been watching the Netflix show Chef's table Noodles and saw an episode talked about Xian's Liang Pi. He wanted to try some Liang Pi as he never tried before and he stumbled upon CA noodle! He got an order of Liang Pi, braised beef noodle soup, Dan Dan dry noodle. Everything tasted really fresh! The noodles are all very tasty. Dan Dan dry noodle was very spicy but good. Liang Pi was not as spicy and braise beef noodle had the numbness after taste probably from the cumin. I wish there are more meat in the braised beef noodle. Also there was a long of oil in the braised beef noodle. We let it cool down and got rid of the solidified oil before eating! The packaging for take-out was good.

Great spot for noodle lovers We got the braised beef noodle soup with medium wide noodles and the chicken and mushroom with regular noodles. Both of these were delicious. I preferred the regular noodles over the medium wide and I usually like fat noodles. We also tried the steamed chive, egg and shrimp dumplings. These were ok. The skin of the dumpling was a little tough and the dumpling mostly consisted of chives - there was very little egg or shrimp. Also tried the house cold noodle - I was not a fan of the flavor of this one. It was very very spicy and that seemed to overpower any kind of flavor. Ordering is easy - you scan the barcode and your table and place your order directly from your phone Shop is small and this place gets busy!! Luckily the turnover is pretty quick. read more

My bf and I went here for some good chinese food over a random weekend! We ordered beef noodle soup with regular noodles, spicy beef noodle soup with wide noodles, liang pi, and stinky tofu. The beef noodle soups were very tasty and I appreciated the chewiness of the wide noodles. Flavor wise, it was good, but felt like it was missing something, couldn't quite put my finger on it though :( liang pi was a nice palate cleanser from the beef noodle soups because of its vinegar taste and coldness! It was my boyfriend's first time trying stinky tofu and I'm glad it wasn't as strong as your typical stinky tofu haha. He enjoyed it, but definitely said it's an acquired taste. If you're looking for authentic strong smelling stinky tofu, this might not satisfy your cravings. I personally liked it because I didn't like the strong stinky tofu I had in HK LOL read more

Their handmade noodles' texture is really good. Perfect chew and somehow they don't stick together even as takeout!! Flavor-wise it's honestly not up my alley (not a fan of cumin etc) but I was craving handmade noodles. Their dry noodle is actually really saucey, and I wish there was more of a garlic flavor. Their beef noodle soup is really flavorful. I can tell what another reviewer meant by a "lamb" aroma - there's some spice that comes through really strongly reminiscent of lamb. I'm not knowledgeable on these spices so I can't identify the spice. I got a chow mein to go too since I wanted to try it, but I feel like the flavor was very similar to the dry noodle??? Tbh was kind if disappointed with that, but at least the noodles were still good (but expectedly a bit mushier after reheating). I would come again if in the area to try other noodle dishes. I love that the noodles come in 3 diff sizes. read more
