    Lettuce wraps 7/10/26

    07/10/26 - I have said before how much my husband and I love this restaurant. The food is always consistently delicious. Of course, we had the firecracker dumplings with extra sauce! My husband had his favorite Kung Pao chicken without zucchini. And I had lettuce wraps! I have not had the lettuce wraps in a long time and had been craving them! They are a huge amount of food. I brought 2 1/2 home with me! Not the lettuce just the meat, a small box of rice, and some firecracker sauce. The next day, I mixed it all together and my husband and I had enough for lunch!

    Ate here tonight and was really happy to see that their menu clearly labels gluten-free items. When we went up to order, I asked about cross-contamination, and the staff assured me that gluten-free dishes are cooked separately, which I really appreciated. I ordered the Sichuan Street Noodles with chicken, and my son had the lo mein with shrimp and beef, along with the Sichuan calamari as an appetizer. My dish was good, and my son thoroughly enjoyed both his appetizer and entrée. The waitress was friendly and very attentive, even though the restaurant was full. We enjoyed our meal!

    Crab won tons

    Food Went to the Carlisle and Central location. Small tight parking. Have to order once you walk in however we were able to get menus get a table (roomy spot) and make our decisions. There were 4 for lunch and we ordered pot stickers crab wontons won ton soup lettuce wraps (4 large lettuce wraps) and some Singapore noodles with chicken all came out hot and fresh and tasty. Only exception was the wonton soup need a little more flavor in the broth!! I will go back again. Our order was 84 bucks. Comparable to other spots of this caliber. Service was fantastic very attentive wish they would have servers but it works. The owner came by and checked on us. Very friendly very nice!! Ambiance very clean bathroom very clean well mens would be nice at night to sit by window and watch central traffic. Overall great spot for Chinese food will be back. Love the nob hill area.

    Stopped by with the work crew for a luncheon. It was really busy (which is a good sign) but the staff stayed composed and the food came out timely. The flavors from the pan seared noodles in the wok was delicious.

    Finally made it to this Nob Hill staple. The lighting and casualness of the restaurant gives it a nice warm energy. The friendliness and promptness of the staff was perfect. Since this was my first visit my partner and I got excited and tried quite a bit of things. The pork buns were delicious! They were so flavorful. The crab rangoon had the right amount of crab. I tried some of my partners egg drop soup and it was really tasty. I myself ordered the Mongolian noodles with shrimp. Not really sure how they were going to be I was not expecting the amount of MSG. It made it too much that I couldn't really enjoy the dish. We also shared a kids portion of chicken fried rice, which is quite a large serving for a kids size. This was just the right fried rice with big pieces of chicken. I asked for hot chili and they had a house chili which was more of a sodium base and not really any hint of heat/spice. The last item I tried was my partners pad Thai. It was pretty tasty and had no issues. I would totally eat that dish again. Outside of the Mongolian noodles, I really enjoyed the experience and would maybe try a different noodles next time that wouldn't be as heavy of the MSGs and had more veggies. (Clarification given by owner it's Hoisin Sauce in Mongolian noodles. That's what made it savory.)

    First off, Food was delicious!! You take your own seat and order at the counter. Other than that everything else is like a normal restaurant. I ordered the Mapo Tofu (perfect spice level!), chicken fried rice (on the saltier side but delicious none-the-less), and the beef broccoli (very very good - highly recommend). Both the mapo and beef came with rice - can opt for brown rice or noodles for a small extra charge. Staff was friendly and accommodating! Will be a regular here!

    Ground control to major tom Ground control to major tom Take your protein pills and put your helmet on... Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, Four, three, two, one, liftoff... We did just that at Fan Tang's... We shared a plate of... "Jade Shrimp"...Large juicy shrimp with asparagus, shiitake mushrooms and hand tossed with the most scrumptious chinese cashew nut pesto, over noodles. The side "seaweed salad" with pickled veggies, cold rice noodles and al·be·it missing seaweed was tasty too. Washed down w. a glass of Pinot Grigio for the Lass and a bottle of Sapporo for the Lad. A fun late lunch for the Old Folk..:) This is major tom to ground control... I'm stepping through the door... And i'm floating in a most peculiar way... And the stars look very different today..:) Best, Avram Bowie Jr.

    Sichuan Street Noodle

    We ordered take out from this restaurant one night and let me tell you, so worth it! We cannot speak about the restaurant since we got it delivered but the food was A-1! We got the spicy dumplings as an appetizer that I highly recommended. We really enjoyed the sauce they came with which was a combination of spicy but also tangy in a way and it just elevated the dish in my perspective! Soo good. We also got the Sichuan Street Noodle which was the best plate of all. The flavor was so unique and came with a lot of the sauce which made it even better because who wants dry flavorless noodles, right? We also got the pad thai, which is the reason we did not give this place 5 stars. It was a decent pad Thai but definitely not the best I have tried, lacking flavor. The portions were more than generous which is always a plus. Would recommend!

    The food is good, but sometimes the servers can be impatient. The location is aesthetically pleasing but it is also too crowded at times.

    The Szechuan street noodles with tofu is my absolute favorite meal here. It comes swimming in a "spicy" peanut sauce. Divine.

    My husband and I finally decided to try this place since the owner of Sushi Xuan recommended it…read more Boy, what a disappointment! First off, we ordered the vegetable egg rolls for an appetizer, I do not recommend them since they are frozen ones. They were tasteless while the interior of these rolls were mushy, though the duck sauce was quite tasty it could not overcome these appetizers. Our entrees came next, my husband asked about the serving size and he was told a plate only fed one person, not true. The plate serves two. Anyway, the Kung Pao Chicken has really good flavor, was spicy and served with a side of steamed white rice. My husband's entree was Orange Chicken and nothing spectacular about it. But what will keep us from ever going back was that as we sat in the restaurant eating I started to smell cigarette smoke. It became more pronounced and I realized they were smoking in the kitchen and had the door open to where we were sitting. With that revelation my husband quickly got us out of there...the cigarette smoking inside the kitchen is a total dealbreaker.

    A year ago we would have given Noodle Works 5 stars. Not…read moresure what is happening to this place, but it USED TO BE amazing. It was so good last year that we actually had a conversation with the owner about them being from San Francisco, after I told him it was the best Chinese food I've had in America outside of San Francisco. Well, that has changed significantly, and not for the better. We made a trip down from Santa Fe this week, specifically to eat at Noodle Works. Yes, we drove over an hour each way on Monday just to eat here. What a mistake! It was clear the General Tzo chicken was microwaved and not fresh fried. It was absolutely inedible! Mall food court Chinese is better than this dish was. Strange because almost exactly 1 year ago their General Tzo's dish was among them best I've ever tasted. I know this dish is not authentic, but to serve pre-fried then microwaved chicken is inexcusable! The Singapore Noodle dish this time was incredibly dry. The curry was more like a dry rub stuck to the noodles than it was a real curry sauce. Again... mall food court quality. Another dish that used to be amazing here. The crab in the crab rangoon was so fishy you could smell it before it was even delivered to the table. It had clearly sat out unrefridgerated during prep for far too long. It was inedible, or of fear of getting food poisoning... they did take it off of our bill. We are so disappointed in how bad the quality has fallen off in the last year! We loved them so much in the past that we will give them one more try, but we will not be making a special trip down from Santa Fe to eat here again. We REALLY hope they get their act together because we really like the employees and owner and want to continue to support them. Management did apologize without being prompted for the slow service and poor quality food, so hopefully they know serious improvement is needed if they are to stay in business. We wish them the best because they are great people. Good luck!
