Noodle Street has always been one of my go-to places for comfort food and a good noodle dish. This…read moretime, I had about an hour to kill while waiting for my appointment at the Apple Store in Pasadena. I was walking around thinking about what to eat. The I saw the Noodle Street sign. Of course, I went in because I already know the quality of their food. I always find their noodles fresh and chewy, and the dishes are rich in texture and flavor. But this time, since I was by myself, I didn't order a noodle dish because I was just by myself. So, I ordered the beef roll, which is also to die for! Just really enjoy their food overall. If you've never tried Noodle Street before, definitely check out their menu and give their noodles a try. This particular location was clean, the staff was nice, and the wait wasn't long when I arrived. I would definitely come back again! I'd like to add one more detail. While I was waiting for my food, one of the staff members, possibly the manager, Justin, came over and asked if I'd like to have a small bowl of broth on the side. I said yes and was impressed by that offer. Why? This young man understood that I had ordered only the beef roll, which is a dry dish. Having a little warm broth on the side made it much easier and more enjoyable to eat. I had water, though, but I personally never drink water before or after my meal, so the broth was definitely a perfect complement to the beef roll. This is the first time in my Noodle Street eating history that I've been offered something simple to enhance my dining experience. A small gesture that I think is worth mentioning, as it showed that he was attentive and had very good common sense when it comes to customer service. Thumbs up to him, and an extra star from me for this location.

Most of the dishes are Korean and Korean spiced versions however so be prepared. I expected the food to be much spicier and more pungent. They are not -- they are modernized slightly lighter versions of Korean noodle dishes. I'm addicted to the cold noodle salad with kale, carrots, and you can ask for it with tofu as I'm not eating beef for the next six months due to the beef recalls nowadays. Love the modern simple setup. There is a crew of chefs in the back cooking behind the glass. The staff are attentive and they take Apple Pay. I cannot believe the prices here. They are very reasonable. Why go to a fast food restaurant? End of Yelp.

It was a bit dark for our eyes to see the menu but we had our phones. I wish they had a nice light or candle which would help with the lowlight. On to the food. Excellent. It was so good. Everything is served for sharing. This is a Spanish restaurant so think tapas. We shared tapas - albondigas in tomato sauce, Olives and garlic, octopus with potatoes. All so tasty and delicious. For the main meal, we ordered, filet mignon, seabass, lamb chops and rigatoni with peas and serrano ham. We shared each others dishes so that everyone had a few bites. It did not disappoint. I really want to go back to try the paellas.

We got the pan con tomato, the shrimp in wine sauce, the salmon in lemon caper sauce, and the papas bravas. The shrimp was okay, but everything else was outstanding. The salmon tasted very fresh and the lemon sauce was perfection, a lil thick and creamy lemon sauce. The potatoes in both the salmon dish and the papas bravas dish were cooked to perfection, and the pan con tomate had this perfect crunch to it. This restaurant is beautiful as well, whether you're inside or out in the alley at sunset where you get sky and Mountain View's and an alleyway lit with string lights. It's a beautiful setting. I would definitely come back and adventure to try more things on their menu.

As we didn't have reservations, we waited a bit in the shade for a table to open. Note to self, next time make reservations! The hostess came to seat us and we found ourselves in a cool although somewhat loud room . There was a large party sitting behind us as I also noticed every table in the room was now full and music loudly playing. Our friendly server Sofia took our orders promptly. Talking was challenging as the noise level was quite high. I ordered the grain bowl while my hubby ordered a turkey burger with air fries. I love the fact that no seed oils are used here. My grain bowl was delicious with one exception..,the roasted sweet potatoes were hot as in majorly spicy. Spicy is good for most and I'm sure they would have been delicious however, spicy gives me headaches. Our kind understanding server Sofia brought plain roasted sweet potatoes which by the way were outstanding! Yes, I would return and yes, I recommend this restaurant. You'll love the varied menu and the service, just hope the room is quieter and not as crowded. And remember your reservations. Street parking is available by App or paid boxes,

Gerald is a very kind server and pleasant to talk with. He generously helped my fiancée and I figure out what we wanted to eat. I opted for this prickly pear drink with and chicken panini with sweet potato chips, and my lady wanted their spaghetti squash with chicken. The prickly pear wasn't sweet and could hardly taste the pear or anything else it said it came with, it had the sweetness of La Croix at best. Thankfully, Gerald helped by providing some simple syrup on the side. After which it tasted perfect for me. The panini didn't have much flavor. I could only taste the pure tomato sauce, cheese,/and chicken. No seasoning or anything of flavor. The sourdough bread was also beginning to fall apart because of the sauce. It wasn't inedible, just not enjoyable to eat at all. The chips and ranch were good. My lady said the spaghetti squash was good and the chicken was good too. She had a nice serving size enjoyed eating the left over the next day. The price for a place and location like this was expectedly set at around $58 before tip. They kindly let us finish eating even though they closed and started cleaning, so it's appreciated. I might come back because it could've been my expectation of how I wanted the drink and Sandwich to be. The staff were also friendly and accommodating, along with the nice vibe.

Star Leaf, in Pasadena, is a wonderful Thai restaurant that has a unique and attractive menu. The…read morefact that they were participating in Dine LA was a trigger, to make another visit there for lunch. I tried to invoke the dinner menu, but they were not willing. Not a problem, the lunch menu was equally enticing. A 2-course offering for $25. I started with the Thai Prawn Ceviche. This course was wonderfully balanced, not too acidic, also a nice touch of sweetness and plump flavorful prawns. For the main, my selection was the Beef Truffle Wok-Seared Noodles. I was delighted that they were round noodles and they arrived at my table stirred in a dark sauce with sliced beef pieces on top. A small porcelain decanter was also supplied, containing the truffle oil. I poured it over my noodles. The beef was tender, moist and could be cut with the usual provided table knife. The whole dish was a winner, from start to finish. Service here, as expected, was well executed. Need to be aware of the parking though. There is a public garage around the corner that is advertised for this establishment and a few others. Problem is, that Star Leaf validates only for 1-hour, while their neighbors do so, for 2-hours. I addressed this issue with the manager at my last visit and this time too. The answer I got was not convincing to suggest that they care, or will do something about it, anytime soon. Oh well.

As a baker and someone who loves things containing gluten, I could not have been more delighted by the quality of 100%-gluten-free baked goods at Hello You're Welcome. Highlights include the impeccable sweet scones, which are the perfect texture of flaky, crumbly, moist, and slightly crisp -- and the savory biscuits, which are rich, soft, hearty delectable comfort foods. The bright vibe of the decor is a cozy, hip, and artistic cafe that welcomes you to sit down and stay a while. Some of the cool vintage books that decorate the space have been in the family for generations! The family of women who own this space are friendly, welcoming, and helpful in choosing your treats (though you really can't go wrong here with anything on the menu). You want to vent about your day? They're here for you. You want to brainstorm your next screenplay or side hustle? These ladies have got you. Show up, and enjoy yourself. And the delicious baked goods!

Called the…read morerestaurant on the day of the reservation stating we were running 15 min behind and that our number has decreased by 2. Not an issue, got thanked for the update. It wasnt that busy at the time of our arrival. There were a lot of tables and the noise level was quiet. The host was nice and sat us not too long after we arrived. The table that we got sat at was extremely wobbly. My father-in-law noticed another table had napkins placed underneath to stabilize so he did the same to our table and it worked. Tara took our order and brought out the drinks. The food was 90% great! The 10% that fell short was a combination of things. 1) menu online and the physical menu said corn bread (which we were told no longer serves them). If its no longer available, update the menu because we were excited to try the corn bread. 2) a bbq place with no wet naps, that is really weird. However, they did bring me a stack of paper towels that were wet as if they were wet naps. 3) only 1 steak knife was provided in the platters. It was hard for a party of 6 to cut up meat with only 1 steak knife. 4) one of the sides came out cold, and hard. I bit into a macaroni and it felt raw because of how hard it was! I even dropped the macaroni on the plate and it rang! We brought it to the servers attention and we were able to get a fresh one free of charge. We loved the short ribs and the tomahawk steak! They were delicious. Baked potato as a side item was very large! During the whole time we were eating, no one came by to check on us, refills were not provided until after we were done eating. We never got one of the drinks that Tara wrote down and it showed up on the check. I was trying to get a staff members attention, and my hand was raised up, and there were hosts that saw my hand raised, but did nothing. There were other servers and runners that saw it too. Took a while for us to get any help. We eventually flagged down our server after what felt like 5 minutes. We brought the charge to our servers attention, and they corrected that too. Overall, the table service could have been a lot better, fix broken tables, and I suggest you bring your own wet naps or baby wipes because they dont supply any.

I love how cute the interior design of this restaurant is - it felt cozy and the chairs are so comfortable it makes you feel right at home. There were some tables for traditional style dining, and there were some couches for light bites. We sat inside the restaurant right by the street, perfect for a people watching lover like me. Since we had our toddler with us, we asked for a high chair but they said they didn't have any, which was quite disappointing for a restaurant like this. Luckily our table had a loveseat type couch, so we were able to squeeze our toddler in between us during the meal. We were here for the weekend brunch and I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the price of the menu items! For a restaurant on Lake, I was expecting more. I got the crab cakes benedict ($20) and it was just perfect - not too salty, and the portions were just right. Overall, great experience here, easy to find parking in the lots behind the restaurant, just wish they had high chairs to accommodate families.

I also don't like their chicken or chashu any longer and I always go with the tofu. Typical order for me is a Bold Ramen, Non-Gluten free, Go Green, Garlic's Best Friend, Give it a kick, with a flavored egg. If I'm extra hungry I will add extra noodles but their other appetizers such as their fried rice have never really wowed me, but hey, not for me. One thing that I do not get even though I am rating five stars is why they serve extra noodles immediately with your bowl of ramen. By the time you're done with your first portion of noodles, the second portion is a noodle brick that you have to pry apart in your bowl with your chopsticks. Ramen Tatsunoya handles "kaedama" wayyyyy better in the respect that it's to order and they bring it out almost instantly after you order it with extra green onions, wood ear mushrooms, etc. Tatsu definitely has the ability to pump out a bowl of ramen fast - so I know they could do this too with just a little extra care between front of house and back of house staff. Please consider it. Your customers ordering extra noodles will immediately notice a quality difference getting to eat fresh noodles!
