I could have that comforting ramen dish every single week, it's THAT good. The beef chunks were also very tender and not at all dry. Was pretty cool to see okonomiyaki on the menu as well - we split it between two of us as an appetizer. Although I don't live nearby, I'd love any excuse to return and try more yummy looking offerings from their menu.

Stopped in for my last lunch of 2025. I thought I had submitted a review before for this…read morerestaurant but it looks like I haven't so this post will include additional pictures from my first experience here. Noodle Shack is located in a shopping center so there is ample parking available. During my first visit, I had the pleasure to try takoyaki for the first time. These soft, pillowy octopus fritters garnished with sauce and bonito flakes that danced as they reacted to the heat we're as exciting to try as they were delicious. Upon entry today I was quickly seated and was one of two occupied tables in the dining room. The waiter came over and took my order of Zhanjiangmian. My previewed the menu online beforehand so I already knew what I was going to order. The interior of the restaurant is spacious, clean and cozy. Not long after I place my order I got my food. Zhanjiang is a fermented soybean paste and to make the dish pork and mushrooms are added to make the sauce. To my delight, I was welcomed with a warm and savory noodle dish packed with umami that just seemed perfect for this cold weather. The dish itself does not come spicy so I requested a side of chili oil which I used had some heat and this just amplified how tasty this dish was. I was pleased with my order and would definitely eat this dish again. My only complaint about today's experience, which is a pet peeve of mine, is when the server places the check on the table before I am finished eating. Fortunately, most establishments don't follow this protocol. And although it is my only complaint I do not feel this would prevent me from going back try more of their menu.

You know those places where you hunt for pieces of meat, thinking "this can't be all they gave me!"? This ain't it: had pieces of delicious eye of round in almost every bite.

The food is unquestionably fresh; there are no mass-produced shortcuts here. I ordered the Shaky Beef with Rice (Bo Luc Lac), and it absolutely melted in my mouth. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it was so well-seasoned that it didn't even need hoisin sauce. The ambiance is that of a cozy neighborhood café, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy an authentic, thoughtfully prepared meal. I'll definitely be back!

I'm from NYC and I've had my fair share of flavors from around the world. This by far is my favorite restaurant in Lancaster. The service was amazing, owner/chef is super down to earth. For drinks, my partner and I got a limeade, coffee, and thai tea. All were amazing! coffee is strong and limeade was refreshing. Hu Tieu in chicken broth was amazing, chicken broth has been cooking for 20+ hours and YOU CAN TELL. Regular Brisket Pho was just as flavorful! Bun Bo Hue was the heartiest and most flavorful bowl of soup noodles I've ever had. ZERO COMMENTS. My partner got the shakey beef over rice, he said it was a 10/10, very tender and flavorful. (the chef came by passing out samples and my partner was immediately sold.) Come check this place out!!!?

I had the opportunity to grab lunch again and instead getting my typical rice dish I opted to get Bun, a cold vermicelli salad bowl. This one was topped with grilled pork, shrimp, and two egg rolls and served with a side of dressing. Everything was cooked well and season nicely. Since everything is made to order, it takes a little while to get your food but it did not seem excessively long either.

Outside its easy to mistake this place as a flower or gardening shop but that's just a credit to the owner's wife's passion for gardening and fresh ingredients. Inside is very simple and no frills but thats not a bad thing! We were greeted by the owners wife and seated by their son. I ordered the Pho rib eye and spring rolls and husband got the spring rolls as well and a rice dish. The flavors were so vibrant and fresh! Pho came with the usual cilantro, bean sprouts, etc to customize to your liking. There was nothing left by the time I was done, even drank all the broth. The wife checked on us a few times and graciously bid us fairwell, saying to please come again soon. We saw the owner and his son in the parking lot and chatted with them and another patron who finished before us. Very down to earth family with so many stories to tell. I could talk to them all day.
