    Inside - welcome counter
    Stephanie T.

    I recently came across a Mad For Noodles ad on Facebook. Mad For Noodles on Thayer Street had a soft opening on Thursday, 1/16/25. It is on the upper level of Berk's Shoes & Clothing Store. The restaurant is brightly lit and there are plenty of tables. On Tuesday, 1/21/25, our group of 3 walked in and were welcomed by the staff. The staff asked if we were dining in or taking out. We said dining in. They handed us the menu and informed us to use the QR code on the table to order. The menu is limited to udon, ramen, pho, rice bowls, and two sides. I ordered the Pho Vietnamese beef noodle soup with steak, brisket, tripe, scallions, onions, and cilantro and the other 2 guests in my group ordered the Shoyu tonkotsu silky tonkotsu broth and a hint of bonito dash with char sir, a marinated soft boiled egg, and scallions. After ordering online, the staff brought the food to our table in about 10-15 minutes. The dishes were in a big bowl and had a good ratio of noodles and the other components. The broth had good flavor and it warmed us right up. Though the menu has a few can sodas and bottle drinks options, I do wish they had water dispensers for customers to get water even just tap water. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Welcome Mad For Noodles to all the restaurants on Thayer Street! I do want to come back and try their udon. The picture of it looks delicious. Prices are reasonable and worth giving Mad For Noodles a try.

    Spicy Wontons

    Rating: 4.0 Went to try this place for dinner. New noodle place on Thayer street that also offer some side dishes. Inside is spacious but was pretty empty. Had to order to go because was short on time but service was quick. The menu was limited but we ordered tonkatsu ramen, cold udon, and spicy wonton. Spicy wonton was pretty good it reminded me of shumai. Meaty and savory with bit of spice. The ramen was okay. Broth was pretty basic but spicy miso made it a bit better. Noodle was chewy and meat was pretty good. The cold udon was pretty good. Sweet and savory thin meat, scallions , tempura pieces, and spicy miso. There were few tougher pieces of meat with tendons. Overall the place was decent. I personally liked their cold udon and the spicy wonton. Downside is that the place has some misspelling on menu or misleading information. I'm quite certain their tonkatsu ramen is supposed to be tonkotsu ramen as the ramen did not include tonkatsu (pork cutlet). Cold udon did not include actual udon it was thin noodle. Udon are typically much thicker noodles. Despite these issues I would still come back to try the other stuff on the menu.

    Pho noodles - YUM!

    We were in Providence for an event & hubby wanted to check out Mad for Noodles - brand new to Thayer Street & he had a 15% coupon. It was a gross, rainy & cold night so a warm bowl of noodles sounded perfect! Hubby opted for the Pho: beef noodle soup with steak, brisket, tripe, scallions, onions, cilantro (minus the tripe) with a side plate of bean sprouts, jalapenos & lime wedges (sadly, no Thai basil). The broth was savory, there was a good amount of meat, noodles were perfectly cooked. Since we were coming from another event, I wasn't hungry enough to commit to a big bowl of deliciousness. I selected the Spicy Wontons: dumplings filled with a blend of shrimp & pork in a spicy chili oil (which I requested on the side). I like spicy but sometimes the chili oil can be too much for me. In this case, I didn't love the taste of the chili oil so we ended up dunking them in the spicy pho broth. YUM! We want to try the Tonkatsu Ramen & the staff highly recommended the Spicy Niku Cold Udon. There are four rice bowls with different proteins that look good as well. Hubby commented that he wished for an icy cold beer to go with his delicious pho (no liquor license but we will ask if we can BYOB in the future)! NOM NOM NOM #YUM

    Char Siu Pork

    I discovered this place through social media and decided to try the char siu pork rice bowl. The portion size was surprisingly generous, much more than I expected. The pork was flavorful, and overall, it was a good experience.

    This place has been on our, to visit, list and I was excited for noodles! Place was clean and orderly. I could tell it was still being set up because the kiosks were set yet, and drinks were limited. The menu has 3 entree items, a couple of sides and 4 different options of rice bowls. I ordered the cold spicy udon and a side of spicy wonton. The noodles were warm, and not cold, tasted freshly made, and were delicious! After a good mix, every mouthful was delicious with a kick from the sauce and the egg. Wish I added another egg because it calmed the spiciness! The spicy wontons were delicious. I could eat more than 6 pieces. Upon arrival, the location was empty, and still new. We were the only customers, but our orders were made in 10-15 minutes, which wasn't a bad wait. Staff were friendly! I could tell the menu was limited, and the kiosk wasn't set up yet. Makes me wonder of the future menu items that could pop up soon! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal a great deal!

    Solid. Great atmosphere.. easy to order. They have a QR code ordering system and the food came out fast. Modern space with a lot of seats. I wanna go back to try the other two dishes.

    Wow! Our server was so friendly and helpful - he gave me a thorough rundown of everything on the…read moremenu that was vegetarian. We were sadly in a rush and had to be out by a certain time to catch a show, and our server understood the assignment and got us out on the tight schedule we needed. I'm just sad I had to slurp down my soup so quickly as it was absolutely DELICIOUS! I ordered the Snow Mountain Ramen - the creamy tofu broth is unlike anything I've had and was so so unique and delicious. I thought about it for at least a week straight after eating it and am still dying to go back to get more. I also got the Iced Rose Matcha drink - $10 felt too pricy for this but I wanted a fun drink and a little caffeine kick - and again the flavors were unique and tasty. Both my friend and I happened to see someone we knew here - it's definitely a popular spot! It was packed on a Saturday night but it was still pretty quick for us to get a table for 2. Being a downtown city restaurant, the tables feel a bit cramped and I was a little too close to the table next to me for comfort - claustrophobics beware (honestly the soup is worth it though!!) Parking is pretty easy in the lot, although Holy crap they need to fix the potholes / harsh drop-off where it meets the street, and it still was not fully plowed many weeks after the big snowstorm (it's a shared lot so not a Y Noodle specific issue, but just saying). The only thing that was unpleasant were the bathrooms - I get it was a busy weekend night, but they reeked of a litter box the second you stepped in, the floor was dirty and very wet with unknown substances, and the Dyson hand dryer is at such a weird, too high level on the wall that it sprayed water in my face. Everything else was a dream, can't wait to go back! Hopefully the bathrooms were just a fluke.

    10/10 would recommend. I have yet to be disappointed here. The food is fabulous. The service is…read moregood. It's probably not a great place for a group because it's kind of tight inside but lots of 2 tops. I will keep coming back here.

    We recently visited Sakuratani in Bristol for the first time and came away very impressed. This…read morefamily-run restaurant has only been open about a year, but it already feels like an established part of the local dining scene. A nice space. We began with spring rolls (VERY good - chicken and shrimp) and sake, and the sake program deserves special mention. We selected a very enjoyable $38 bottle and noticed several other bottles at lower price points, along with a wide selection of canned sake--many around $11. Some diners may balk at paying that much for a can, but they will happily pay more for a mediocre glass of wine at half the volume. The value here is actually quite good, especially for those looking to explore sake beyond the ordinary. Our entrées--the ramen and chicken katsu--were excellent. The ramen featured a rich, deeply satisfying broth, while the chicken katsu was perfectly crisp on the outside and tender within. If you want a "hotter " ramen - the have an add on for a buck. Service was warm and attentive, reflecting the pride that often comes with a family-owned business. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, allowing the quality of the food to take center stage. Bristol is fortunate to have Sakuratani. Strong Japanese dining options can be hard to find outside larger cities, and for a restaurant only a year old, they seem to be doing many things right. We look forward to returning and exploring more of their menu--and their sake offerings. Highly recommended.

Turns out the chicken ramen was the best I've ever had. It was perfect. Hot temperature and medium spicy. The chicken was lightly crisp and fried. It was a surprise and really good. The Thai iced tea was average and not made fresh.
