I will never not be disappointed by Austin's Korean restaurant selection…read more Ignoring taste for a second, the portion size vs. the price is disproportionate. The Sweet and Sour Pork (탕수육) is $17.95. This feels like price gouging. The same franchise in Carrollton charges the same price for what feels like 4x the amount. It supposed to be a shareable plate. Also, (this is nitpicking) they just poured the sauce. It usually comes in the side. The Jjangmyeon (짱장면) was pretty tasteless like it needed more black bean paste and it was a smaller portion than before. The Jjampong soup (짬뽕국물) was rich though. It was probably the most value.

I had the General Tso's Chicken. The chicken pieces were tender and crunchy and all were nicely coated with sauce that was light and flavorful! The spice level was awesome and had a nice kick to it! The rice was fluffy and such a generous portion, great compliment to the sauce and dish! The vegetable egg roll was packed and golden crispy the veggies were fresh with a nice crunch to them. They do a tremendous delivery business but I ate in and enjoyed the small quiet unassuming bar seating while drinking named brand beverages from their cold case. Definitely give their local business a try as they are always super attentive, helpful and friendly with your order!

We got the spicy stir-fried handmade noodles with beef and hot and sour soup dumplings with pork and cabbage. The soup dumplings were a bit too sour for my taste. The dough was really good, but the flavor just wasn't for me, so I wouldn't order these again. The handmade noodles, were good! They had a great chewy texture and lots of flavor with a little heat. At first, I thought they were a bit skimpy on the meat, but then I discovered most of it was hiding at the bottom. The ratio was definitely a little off, but once I mixed everything together, it was great. I'll definitely come back for the spicy beef noodles.

Young kids doing hard work on a friday evening instead of partying. And they did a great job!!! Second, the food: We had the soup dumplings, the won ton in the chili sauce, the minced pork noodle and the stir fry noodles with beef. The food was amazing, could be a little bit more spicy though, but they have some hot sauces and chili oil to turn it up a notch. The noodles were perfectly cooked, not to soft and not al dente. Prices are good, portions are plenty. Also, they have these super delicious garlicky cucumbers in a savory sauce/dressing at the self serve section. I should have taken more of those. It's a neat little place, they also have these cute little booths outside. I already know what i will try next time we go there. This place is up my (noodle) alley!

TLDR: SO much potential…read more From the pictures online, Noodle Alley looked legit! Simple seating, bamboo plants, simple wood furniture, red lanterns and a shrine-- it gives traditional without even trying. You can order either at the counter or directly at your table via QR code. I'd recommend ordering at the counter, since it seems like table orders take longer to get moving. If your body runs warm, their central AC isn't running and for the most part, I found myself too hot to even want to order noodles with broth. Instead, I opted for the Cold Sesame noodles, which surprisingly wasn't bad! NOTE: the picture overhypes the dish and the actual result/taste look nothing like it. It absolutely needed more dimension other than the cucumbers, lettuce, and carrots-- fried garlic, lime, peanuts, scallions, ANYTHING. The chicken was tender (THANK GOODNESS), but should have been more shredded. Small menu items: *The Taiwanese Popcorn: another one-dimensional item that could have been so much better. It needed more spices and BASIL! *Soup Dumplings: Came out deflated with not enough soup, but the good news: the dumpling wrapper was tender and the pork filling wasn't too bad. *Shrimp & Pork Wontons in Chili Sauce: needs more acidity, I added a few drops of vinegar and it made the dish perfect Self-Service: In addition to being able to order at your table, Noodle Alley has a self-service bar where they serve oranges (essential to end all Chinese meals) and cucumber salad. Though there seems to be some praise for the cucumber salad, we found it to be too soggy meaning it's been sitting for some time.

My family and I used to go there regularly. We also had big meals there with friends. The dishes we particularly liked were the Spicy Beef and Fried Tofu with crushed pepper. I did not understand why many of my Asian friends didn't like the restaurant until I met an extremely rude cashier one day. Early this year, my husband and I came to Asia Café. There was a customer ordering at the front desk. After she finished ordering, she went back to her table and started talking with her friends, so I approached the counter. The cashier shouted at me with a hateful expression, "They haven't finished yet. Stand there!" I was shocked. Later, it was my turn. My husband and I usually ordered two dishes. However, it was a day of celebration, so we were thinking about ordering one more dish. I asked cheerfully, "Three dishes for two people should be okay, right?" She replied coldly, "How do I know how much you eat?" Hello? I came here to eat. I didn't owe her anything, and I certainly didn't deserve to be treated as if I wasn't welcome. The next few times I went there, I was still served by the nice lady. But one day, I met the rude older lady again and was mistreated. I stopped going. I do not recommend this place at all.
