Noodle Bar - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Disclaimers- cash only and no indoor dining. But parks, beaches nearby. Pull up to the nearest beach, eat with an amazing view! Now the food- massive portions, even regular size were stacked full, love it... Food was made with fresh ingradients- meat and vegetables. Sauce was not excessively salty, did not feel parched afterwards. Tip- Try their chili oil, spread it on rice and enjoy. Fresh rolls were crunchy, stuffing had flavor with fresh herbs and seasoning. the peanut sauce that comes with it is amazing! Lemongrass and chili chicken was juicy, flavorful with crunchy onions. Chowmein had plenty of meat and seasonal vegetables. read more

8.4/10 -- Great Pho and Quick Service! Tried this spot and was honestly impressed. I got the large chicken pho super light with an amazingly flavorful broth that really intensified the overall taste. Everything tasted fresh and clean. Service was fast and friendly, and the restaurant itself was well-kept and tidy. The only downside was that there's no dine-in option, so I had to eat in my car but definitely worth it. read more

Noodle Bar - 7. Chicken Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Stopped by while working in the area. Restaurant seemed very busy with takeout orders. Good idea to call before going. I ordered BBQ chicken wings with rice. Dish was delicious and very reasonable price. Chicken had the taste of bbq along with maybe soy sauce and sautéed onions on top. Service is great and small restaurant kept clean. read more

Noodle Bar - Inside of restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Soooo I do recommended the lemongrass tofu but everyone else loved their food. The dry noodles bowl is basically a vermicelli plate complete with salad. I got the lemon grass tofu version but all the sauce leaked out and I was truly left with a dry dish...booo. I would try them again because of the fresh veggies and variety. read more

i always order this on marina every week, they always satisfy me. But i tried ordering on seaside because i was there. Look at the photo, you can't barely even see the beef. And the girl didn't even ask rice or noodles, i'm so disappointed. read more

Noodle Bar - beef with onion and peppers - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Long time customers as we always get what we wanted. Catfish is my favorite with fried rice and salad... I could only eat 1/2 and rest for dinner. All other items are Asian with blend of Chinese and Vietnamese. Vegan type foods are offered. most employees are local students. read more

Someone said, "try noodle bar!" So I did. Cash only. Hole in the wall. And REALLY GOOD. I need to go back for more dishes but my veggies and noddles were nice and tasty. Normally, I would never go into a store front like this, but I trusted my friends and they were true...I look towards my next order (they are big with take out) with Noodle Bar. read more

Noodle Bar is a physically small location and has take out only. We asked the owner and they used to have stools to sit on to eat at the store, but COVID regulations ended that. The people who run the place were very nice. They are in a long but narrow and somewhat busy strip mall with adequate parking. We got the curry chicken fried rice and chicken spring rolls. The curry chicken is made with thin sliced white/breast meat and marinated in brown style curry that is probably Vietnamese, but is similar to the Chinese kind. It is NOT the wet kind of curry and is NOT the yellow curry or the peanut/coconut curry. It comes with fried rice, but you can substitute a noodle at an additional charge. The fried rice had a good flavor, but was not fried through completely and there were chunks of white unfried rice in it. Despite the improper frying of the rice, we thought the flavor of the chicken and portion size were very good and we enjoyed the dish. The chicken spring rolls come in the Vietnamese style rice paper steamed wrapper NOT the fried Chinese flour wrapper. There is a light thin peanut sauce that comes with it, NOT the thick Thai style kind, and it is a little not overly sweet. Both dishes seemed more Americanized, but we enjoyed them as prepared. We ate in our car, but there were some sketchy homeless looking people milling around the lot and so we would recommend taking your food back to your house or hotel room. One man seemed like he was going to come up to our car window and tap on it to pan handle us, but fortunately he did not. Overall, we enjoyed the food and would recommend giving them a try. read more

Corina loves the broccoli and beef and always gets that. Randy ordered the grilled shrimp and vegetables with a side of udon and loved it. I got the fried chicken because nothing else sounded good at the time, and it was only ok. Absolutely no flavor and dry. Cash and to go only at this location, took 25 minutes to get our food which is what we were told. No real ambiance...a long counter to order at with no seats and a rushed and blunt dude at the counter taking orders. read more

Just got off the phone with Noodle Bar after getting our take out. Just want to say how incredible this place is top to bottom. Service is always great, the food is made with love and hot hot for pickup. So appreciate the staff there. I will add photos later, but the dishes cannot be beat, especially today when everything is so expensive! We just got food from here on Friday and we're back again today. We will both take servings from both main dishes (lemongrass beef chow fun and vegetable chow mein) and it won't look like it's even touched. Still overflowing. And we can eat. Their fried shrimp is always on our order, and their egg rolls are fantastic. So appreciate noodle bar! Thank you, Keary & Jon read more

Noodle Bar - Lemongrass chow fun overflowing and underneath veggie chow mein, also overflowing. With fried shrimp and egg roll in the bowl. - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Great food and service. A very diverse menu to choose from. Highly recommended! Parking can be difficult at lunchtime!

I could eat there every day and never grow tired of anything they serve. I am fortunate enough to live near them. They beat CHOPSTIX restaurant any day. They also will accommodate you for items one would like to add or not add on your meal. Whatever meal I order from NOODLE BAR always fixes me right up. I highly recommend this restaurant for mind-body and spirit! I love them! There are two locations one here in SEASIDE and one in MARINA read more

I ordered the 5 spice wings based on reviews and I got no spice wings. They were just plain fried wings. So disappointing read more

Been here so many times and the food is always consistent and delicious. Very generous portions, friendly and helpful staff. Wife typically gets the chicken pho and i bounce around between the rice combos. Whether it be shrimp, chicken, pork or all 3 always a filling meal. The egg rolls a re great too! 10 out of 10 recommend read more

Good atmosphere, fast-paced but comfortable. The Seafood Soup was good, not a lot of vegetables in there but the large is a good portion to keep you full for a while. The Lemongrass Beef is okay, the beef barely tastes like lemongrass and the noodles were a little overcooked, barely any bean sprouts, but the lettuce was good and fresh, good sauce and they use cilantro to garnish. The service was good, friendly, polite and efficient. Would come here again to try something different. read more

I love Noodle Bar and their delicious dishes. Unfortunately, today I found a long, dark hair nestled within my wonton soup. While I applaud them for their quick service and wonderful meals, this grossed me out. Just sharing what I came across, and hopefully they take this into consideration when practicing better health code enforcement. read more

Noodle Bar - Vietnamese Near Me - Seaside, California

Food and service are 10/10! Plenty of flavor. Place was busy when we went but the wait made my pho worth it. Will be returning

Hit or miss. Sometimes food is bland, sometimes it's good. Sometimes the food is ready early, sometimes it's ready super late. Honestly the most redeeming part of this restaurant is the strawberry boba smoothie, I will come here just for that. They only take cash by the way so come prepared. Also, theres no seating at all, indoor or outdoor. It's also very cramped inside, very tiny. read more

This hole in the wall was a quick grab and go. $30 total for a large lemongrass chili beef vermicelli and a large five spices chicken vermicelli. These to go boxes were filled to the top, and it fed our party really well. Such big value!! Next time when I'm in the area and feeling broke and hungry, I'll be back to get some more. Cash and to-go only. Make sure the lady gives you enough forks lol. The chili oil is delicious. read more

The food was great. The broth tasted amazing and the friend rice had some char on it that gave the rice extra flavoring. It is a bit loud inside and isn't much seating room so you'll get lucky if you even find a place to sit with there only being about 6 tables. The tables are really tight so it was hard for me to squeeze into the booth considering I'm not the thinnest person or the heaviest set. The reason I give 3 stars is due to the fact that the order of shrimp egg rolls came filled with oil. I know egg rolls are deep fried but these were above and beyond drenched in oil to the oil that the plate was catching the drips of oil when an egg roll was taken off the plate. One I bit into the egg roll I could feel the oil running down my lips and as I would chew and swallow I could still feel the oil residing on my tongue and back of my throat. read more

First time here, tried the pho and it was delicious. Keep in mind they're cash only and only takeaway. Also be cautious of the container since it's filled with soup and you need to drink a lot before being able to fit the noodles and brussel sprouts in, so I would recommend switching to a big enough bowl. The service was nice, patient and kind. The place was a bit run down but that didn't affect the quality of the food. read more

Great food and sweet staff! Although, it is takeout only, and cash only. So I wish I knew that before going since I was planning on sitting down for my meal. But if you're on the go and have cash to pay it's perfect! read more

Might look like a hole in the wall place but more like a diamond in the ruff. This place is order to go cuz no seating but damn so good. We ordered the BBQ 5 spice chicken and lemon grass combo with egg roll combo on the side. 5 spice chicken is sooo good we normally get one order of this each time we go. Definitely type of place we want to try everything on the menu but 5 Spice chicken always calls and doesn't disappoint. Didn't think I would like the lemon grass chicken but wanted to try something new and dang. Definitely proved me wrong. The egg roll combo came with chicken and shrimp. The shrimp egg roll was really good with nice size shrimp. read more

Lady at the counter literally so so so rude definitely will not be back, place is grimy looking too

I love visiting Seaside location noodle bar ! Always have great customer service and the food is delicious. Even when it's busy your order always comes out fast, correct and warm! Best place to eat in town. read more

G-DAMN! The portions here are huge it'll be difficult to eat a normal sized plate in one sitting! Not only that but the flavor is phenomenal and so are the house chili sauce and oil. It gives hole in the wall which means the service is what it is but they were really nice. There's no sitting area there so it's to go only which doesn't matter since it's near the freeway or beach if you want to go find a spot. Definitely coming back multiple times!! read more

One of my favorite meals especially for the price on my Monterey/Carmel trip so far. Loved the dry noodle dishes with five spice chicken and the bbq pork/egg roll. Generous portions--lots of meat. Everything so tasty. One downside/reminder to all--no sit-down here, to-go only. read more

the food is amazing i get the chicken chow fun. it's delicious and quick service. they also sell painting inside and it's great to take out or eat in :) read more

I was starving as I hadn't eaten all day and this place hit the spot. For the price, this place is a good place to fill your tummy. If you don't care what you eat and just need to eat, then this place is great for you. If you're looking for some good and authentic food, then this isn't it. I feel like this is almost like panda express. Just a nice big plate of greasy food. Good portions, tastes good, just not legit. I got the lemongrass beef and the broccoli beef in large size. Oil was oozing out the boxes so it's super greasy but not unexpected for takeout. The meats were really flavorful, as they're so greasy and salty they should be. Decent lemongrass flavor. But not authentic vietnamese type of flavor. The fried rice also had no flavor. It was literally just yellow in color but tasted the same with some peas and carrots in it. But the food is Piping HOT! Which is great. It kinda burns your lap while trying to eat in the car but it's so hot and fresh. So hey for the price, if you're looking for something to eat then yes this place is fine if you're not looking for healthy food. If you're craving authentic viet/Asian food, then this place isn't it (not to say that's bad!). Wouldn't go out of my way to eat here but wasn't a bad choice when I was starving in the area and honestly didn't care what I ate. read more

I love Noodle bar! This spot is very popular in our town, and it's understandable on why. the food quality is always great. I've been coming to noodle bar for quite some years. And I've never had a bad experience My usual... a dry noodle bowl. Lemon grass beef. Beef was the choice of meat for me. The Veggies eggs rolls are also a hitter.

The Noodle Bar in Seaside has excellent cuisine! We can order different combinations of vegetables together that aren't on their menu, but they put together for us. Their 5 spice chicken has made them a local favorite. The guy who took my order on the phone was friendly and very helpful. There is also a Noodle Bar in Marina, if that works better for you. Try it! You will love their food. read more

The Noodle Bar is a Seaside favorite. When my Bay Area friends heard my son and I were moving to Seaside, they immediately told us to try The Noodle Bar. We did. And we keep going back, from time to time, when we want noodle dishes or Boba. When comparing to S. Bay, they aren't going to have the most amazzzzing Pho but... for our area, it's pretty good, quick, and affordable. We need that some days! The place is small and mostly does take out. Cash only! Might see ya there! read more

I've ordered from Noodle Bar once and will absolutely come back! The egg rolls and pho were spectacular! My order was spur-of-the-moment, so I didn't know ahead of time that it's cash-only. But, they have an ATM onsite and the fees were reasonable. read more

So glad I found this place on yelp! Price was super reasonable, portion was big, owner was really nice and the food was tasty! I can't believe I ate the whole thing! No dine in available so I drove to sand city beach by and had a great view of the bay while I ate. read more
