Simple but great tasting noodle dishes. Chicken Fry Noodles was tasty and the noodles had a great chew. We asked for wide noodles for the Pork Noodles. They made them fresh. The proprietress was very nice and provided great service. Restaurant is basic but food makes up for it. read more

We had an outstanding meal at Fresh Noodles! We received a very warm greeting by a friendly and charming host who seated us quickly. Food came out very fast and was absolutely delicious! We ordered the chicken noodle stir fry, the beef soup and the chicken/ shrimp dumplings. The food was extremely fresh and flavorful. Portion sizes were generous and the service was excellent. This was easily our best meal in Rotorua! Would highly recommend. read more

We're always on the lookout for good eats and stumbled upon Fresh Noodles while researching where to eat. It's a cute mom and pop shop that specializes in homemade, fresh noodles. Walk up the stairs and you're in for a happy discovery. We dropped in on an early Sunday evening. The inside is absolutely massive but there was only two other tables occupied. It's a family run spot and our waitress was very sweet and cheerful. The menu is short and sweet; noodles, dumplings and Chinese roti (replaced the steam buns). Obviously, they make their noodles in-house along with their juices (blueberry and mango). - Beef noodle soup ($12.50 NZD) - broth is simpler and more mild in flavour but the beef was tender and meaty. The noodles were fresh and had a good bite to them. - Chicken minced noodles ($12.50 NZD) - this is a dry noodle topped with a minced chicken sauce. Again, noodles had a good chewy bite. - Prawn with chicken dumplings ($12.90 NZD for 10) - pretty legit. Clearly homemade and the skin came out with all that webbing. - Chinese roti ($6.00 NZD) - worth a try but the filling was quite plain. Hidden gem! If you're craving homemade noodles, this is the spot. 4.5 stars. read more

I had a delicious bowl of beef noodle soup with tea. The soup had just the right amount of spice, and the service was amazing throughout. The entrance is a little hole in the wall staircase that leads up to a pretty large area playing oldies over the radio. Very cute environment! Great mom and pop vibe. Highly recommend! read more

This is our first time eating at this place because we are craving for noodles. It turns out the noodles are extremely delicious. This place is like a gem. They must be hit hard by pandemic. We try Chicken meatball noodle soup and pork belly noodles. They are both very good. Pork bellies are cooked well and just right. We found out they make the noodles fresh by themselves. We shall come to this place again. read more

This is a hidden gem! They are located around the corner in an upstairs dining area. My husband and I were craving some Asian food -- we stumbled on this restaurant on yelp. They specialize in handmade noodles & dumplings. We ordered the chicken meatball noodle soup & chicken & prawn boiled dumplings. They were both delicious and we could tell they were homemade! We will miss this place when we go back home! read more

Really a surprise with home style dumplings (We tried the curry pan fried dumplings and Kimchee boiled dumplings. The chicken roti was crunchy and fresh with nutty smoky flavors. The kids enjoyed hand cut noodle beef in broth read more

Mom and Pop restaurant located upstairs of a boutique with good beef noodle soup, Chinese roti, and dumplings. Very friendly service. There's about a 10-15 minutes wait for the food after ordering because the noodle was made fresh and they told me they do not use MSG in their soup. The broth is mild but still flavorful (not strong and makes you thirsty like some MSG broth). The fresh noodle is just the right texture and consistency. It left me very satisfied. The Roti wrap is crunchy with a savory meat filling that has a hint of sweetness. My husband loved it. I asked for the WIFI password and the waitress gladly gave it to me. New Zealand is known for having slow internet but the WIFI speed for this restaurant is pretty decent. read more

Wow! Glad we walked up the flight of stairs Straight forward menu and not so many choices but that is just fine with me. The dumplings and soups are awesome. We shared chicken, shrimp and pork dumplings. Flat out awesome. My wife had the meatball and noodle soup and she loved it so much she wants to come back again before we leave. Don't let the modest surroundings fool you. As long as you came for the food and don't mind the place looking like a 5 star restaurant then pull up a chair and enjoy the meal. read more

strange place, seems like it was once a disco bar and only lightly redecorated since, which gives an odd ambience. we were served by the owner(?)/cook/everythingelse, who was a nice woman, very anxious to please, almost to the point of being overbearing. the food was ho-hum compared to the noodle places we visited elsewhere in NZ. most of the activity on the night we were there was takeout, and it's a large space, so it felt a bit desolate. read more

Very tasty and freshly made noodle soup. It's not too salty or too spicy, but you can add extra sauce if needed. Very nice staff as well!
