Lowest cost noodle restaurant in Redmond. Everything was so delicious. Try the hot pot!! It's massive and shareable. Staff were amazing.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Noodle Nine delivers a genuinely authentic dining experience that feels like stepping into a slice of everyday Asia rather than a polished, commercialized version of it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment you walk in, the cultural atmosphere stands out--many of the patrons are Asian, and on my visit, a few were even dressed in traditional garments, which added a vibrant, lived-in feel to the space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's the kind of detail you can't manufacture, and it speaks volumes about the restaurant's credibility within the community. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior itself is fairly average--nothing particularly modern or upscale--but it doesn't detract from the experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If anything, it keeps the focus where it belongs: on the food. Service was a bit of a mixed bag. There were only two servers handling the floor, and they were clearly stretched thin. Ordering is done digitally, which helps streamline things, but you can still feel the strain during peak times. That said, the food started arriving quickly--our tofu noodle dish came out almost immediately, while the beef dish lagged behind a bit. Presentation leans traditional in a charming way. The plates and chopsticks have that classic, no-frills aesthetic that complements the overall vibe of the restaurant. Now, let's talk about the food. First, a word of caution: spice levels here are no joke. If you're sensitive to heat, you'll want to dial it down. But if you can handle it, the flavors are absolutely worth it--rich, bold, and deeply satisfying. The tofu was exceptionally soft, almost silky, and clearly freshly prepared. The noodles matched that texture perfectly--tender, well-cooked, and comforting. Pricing is another strong point. For the quality and portion sizes, it's very reasonable, making it an easy spot to revisit without hesitation. Overall, Nine Noodles is a great pick if you're looking for authentic flavors, a culturally immersive atmosphere, and solid value. It's not about fancy decor or polished service--it's about good, honest food. I'd definitely come back. read more

Happy to come across this restaurant, mostly because ever since Tian Tian Noodle lost their lease in DT Redmond, I've been looking for a replacement for their dan dan noodles. No one else seems to do them the same way. Noodle Nine doesn't serve dan dan noodles BUT the dipping sauce for the scallion pancake is the same as what Tian Tian used in their noodles! I absolutely used it as a dipping sauce. The scallion pancake was great- SUPER crispy. Cucumber salad was really good but aggressively garlicky. Actually spicy from just raw garlic alone. Beef noodle soup was delicious- we added a fried egg (I would skip it next time) and extra noodles on the side. read more

The maocai lets you pick your ingredients, and the tomato soup base is great for non-spicy eaters. Unfortunately the tomato maocai feels watered down and not authentic at all. The wan za mian was another light. Good if you want mild comfort food, skip if you crave traditional bold Sichuan taste. it's relatively affordable read more

It is extremely rare to find a meal in the area for less than $10 these days and that is probably the biggest plus of Noodle Nine. We ordered a couple of dry noodles bowls, wonton in chili oil, fried dumplings, and fried chicken. The noodle sauce and texture were overall very solid and the portion was reasonable given the price. The wontons in chili oil and fried chicken were just ok. That being said, the fried dumplings tasted like they came out of a bag, would not order. Service is very bare, you order on your phone, which is to be expected given the price. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a very casual place, mostly solo diners or families wanting a quick bite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would not recommend this for any type of date, family gathering, etc.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would say the noodles and pricing definitely carried our experience. read more

This spot is still good but it is not as great as it was before the ownership change and rebranding. They took out the maocai which is disappointing given that maocai is something you can't find at most mainstream Sichuan restaurants. I got their braised beef noodle soup and it was good. It was just not as good as I remember when this spot was still called Nineway. read more

Food is still dang solid considering I get the same thing every time I come here. This time I came with a friend who very recently moved to the Bellevue area to retry their braised beef noodle soup on a Saturday night around 7pm. This time I did not order extra noodles like I did the last time, and the food was more than enough for both of us - we each got the same thing. The noodles by default are a little spicy though you can choose not to have it spicy on their menu, which you still access using a QR code. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm actually surprised that this time round there was hardly anyone inside to eat when before it was bustling an nearly packed to the point where their waitlist was utilized.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their food still hits really hard, and I still recommend this place for great food that works best with a little spice on it. read more

Formerly Nine Way Noodles, I tried their Signature Braised Beef Noodle Soup & Nine Nine Noodle, and both were fantastic! The noodles had the perfect chewiness, and the seasoning was spot on. The slightly acidic pickled radish was a great complement to the dishes. Service was excellent, though we dined before it got busy. Two thumbs up! #Noodles #Beef #Soup #Radish #Service read more

Atmosphere [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nine Way is a popular Szechuan spot in Redmond with quite a few tables for dine-in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ordering is all done through your phone, which makes it super easy, and the service was solid. What I Ordered Mala Mao Cai Soup Spicy Wontons Spicy Beef Noodle Soup The Experience I really enjoyed the mala mao cai. It was fun picking out my own toppings, and it felt like a mini hot pot bowl with all my favorites. Super flavorful and delicious. The spicy beef noodle soup was solid too, but the spicy wontons were just okay for me - I probably wouldn't order them again. My friend also enjoyed his beef noodle soup. Final Thoughts Honestly, if this place were near me in California, I'd come here often. The portions are huge (too big for me while traveling, but perfect for leftovers if I were home), and the prices are pretty reasonable for the amount of food you get. Wish there was one closer to me! read more

Yum!! Great place if you're a fan of Sichuan food. We came on a Friday evening with a group of 4 and got so many dishes. Service was super friendly and food came out quick! We got: MaLaTang bowl: Suuuper spicy, had various toppings but I feel like the topping to soup ratio was a bit small. Pork Wonton: YUM, yummy Szechuan sauce and juicy dumpling Clear Noodle: This was a fun refreshing dish. I like the soft texture of the clear noodles Nine Way Noodle: I wasn't expecting to like this so much but it was actually fire. The sauce is savory, spicy, and full of meat Handpulled noodles: the texture of the noodles are fun and chewy but I found the sauce to be a bit sweet Pork/Cucumber: Sauce was super good and cucumber compliments the pork! There's a parking lot which is super convenient. Overall would recommend if you like the tingly numbing spice! read more

I've been coming here (dining & takeout & doordash) consistently for about a couple months now. I'd like to say I'm a regular here given that some of the staff recognize me.... My go to order: mala & spicy Mao Cai (either the soup / dry pot!). It's more than enough to share with one person or two people since it's a la carte ingredients. The meat is delicious, tender, and high quality as well as the other ingredients. Spiciness level: I'd recommend the base spiceness, even as someone who LOVES spicy / mala food. The next levels are the same spiceness but they have more of the fresh peppers (which are crazy). Sometimes I'll order the medium spicy, pick out the fresh peppers, and add some as I go. I've tried other dishes, such as the beef noodle soup and dumplings, but it doesn't give a WOW factor like the Mao Cai. In fact, I would give the other dishes a 3/4 star. But my overall rating bumps to 5 due to the Mao Cai. End of the day, try it! The food consistently comes out quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant gives a cozy, authentic feeling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They do a great job serving as they always top off water, provide peanuts as an appetizer, and give more napkins once we start sweating :) read more

Amazing casual place for authentic Sichuan noodles and dishes My absolute favorite was the Chengdu Zajiang noodle (豌杂面)! The yellow peas were soft and offfered a super unique and smooth texture. Very aromatic too. The whole noodle was rich in flavor and I can't recommend this dish enough The other chicken gizzard and heart noodle with pickled yellow pepper was really spicy, but I would love it more if the favor was more balanced read more

I ordered take out and ordered the dry mala as I had in the past but they completely changed the seasonings and not for the better. It's now some weird creamy peanut sauce that's not good. The portion size is good but nothing else about this dish is. I know the restaurant recently changed names (previously Nine Way) and apparently recipes changed too. This was the only dish I got from here so unfortunately I will not be eating here again read more

Noodle Nine - Noodles Near Me - Redmond, Washington

As a fan of noodles, dumplings and spicy food, I've always been curious about Nine Way since those are essentially the main components of their menu. Recently, it was named #89 on the list of Yelp's Top 100 Chinese Restaurants in the US, which gave me the extra push to finally give it a try. Five of us came for lunch around 11:45A on a Saturday and got one of the last available tables. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The tables are small and sized for two to four people. They pulled an extra chair over for us, so while we all fit, it was a little tight.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One waiter brought over a small dish of spicy roasted peanuts and hot water to start us off. After browsing the menu, which is accessible via QR code only, we selected a couple dry noodle dishes, dumplings and noodle soups. + BRAISED BEEF NOODLE SOUP ($14.99): This bowl contained a generous serving of noodles, cubes of beef, and two pieces of bok choy, topped with green onion and cilantro. The noodles were on the softer side whereas I would have preferred them to be a bit more firm. The beef was pretty tender; about half of them were on the more gristly side, but surprisingly, they were not too chewy. While the menu states this is spicy, it was actually the least spicy thing I ate here. Nevertheless, I still loved the broth and finished every sip! It was beefy, savory and not too salty. The bok choy added a nice crunch while the cilantro provided some freshness. + WONTON IN CHILI OIL ($10.99, 10 pieces): This chili oil really packs a punch! I love spicy food and this was nearing my limit. Every wonton was completely covered in the sauce which was heavy on the chilis and had a dry heat. The pork filling was delicate and the wrapper was nice and thin. + SZECHUAN STYLE DUMPLINGS ($10.99, 8 pieces): I loved these. The sauce was milder in spice with a touch of sweetness that made it addicting. I actually don't remember much about the filling since the sauce was that good. These dumplings had a thicker doughy wrapper, but they were excellent overall. + NINE WAY NOODLE ($11.99) & MINCED BEEF WITH GREEN PEPPER NOODLE ($12.99): These two dry noodle dishes tasted very similar to each other and I couldn't really tell the difference other than the type of meat. Both were completely coated in a spicy sauce. I believe the minced beef noodles had a bit of the mala numbing spice. Our waitress said this one is normally quite spicy, so we opted to decrease it a bit. Two waiters managed all the tables and stayed on top of everything, making it look easy. One of them still made time to check on us and drop off extra napkins among bussing tables, greeting customers, serving food and handling payment. Nine Way is a solid option if you're seeking spicy and savory comfort dishes. read more

The braised beef noodle soup here is amazing. The beef is incredibly tender, the noodles are perfectly cooked and pick up soup well, and the soup is rich and comforting. It is a little on the salty side, though. They also have a few vegetarian options, and my lunch buddy had the vegetarian 99 noodle with fried tofu and really enjoyed it. The scallion pancakes here are flaky perfection, and the cucumber salad is a fresh, garlicky, great choice for a starter. Service here is excellent whether you speak Mandarin or not. Highly recommend! read more

Advertised as the "Best Sichuanese noodle in Seattle", this location in Redmond is one of two locations in the Seattle area (the other one being in Federal Way). They have been here for more than 6 years, serving up various dishes from the Sichuan region of China. It was another dreary day in the Pacific Northwest, and since both sessions of NFL football had only teams that we didn't care about, my daughter and I took a walk to the Overlake Village strip mall for a late lunch. The main tenant is Safeway, with a few restaurants around the edges. [[HIGHLIGHT]]None of the restaurants were particularly busy, so there were plenty of open parking spots that we could see.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were seated immediately, given two glasses of water and referred to the QR code at each table that took us not only to the menu, but also the ordering mechanism. The table also contained pre-filled bottle of tap water, which we could serve ourselves. After we placed our order, the food came in one shot about 10 minutes later. I really like Chinese beef noodle soup, and knew I had to try the version here ($14.99). What's interesting is that my spice tolerance has really come down as I grew older, to the point where I don't order medium or hot anymore. This soup had no choice of spice, instead being called spicy...it really wasn't. It came with the noodles used in their other dishes, with some baby bok-choy. The meat used was from the shank, which had nuggets of beef along with the connective tissue surrounding it....i really think this is the best meat for this dish, and I like it almost as much as oxtail (which is a lot more expensive). It was a decent portion, came with a giant spoon, which I used to slurp and shovel into my face... really enjoyed this dish. The term 'mala' refers to the liberal use of Sichuan peppercorns, a very different reaction than from the typical hot peppers. It's the active ingredient in their most popular dish: Nine Way Noodle ($11.99). It had been ordered as mild like my daughter had before, but the amount of ground peppercorn used was more than expected, making it difficult for my daughter to finish it. So I ended up tasting most of each dish, and enjoyed both, but understand why it was hard to finish (it does numb your tongue quite a bit). It doesn't look like much when it comes out, but after you mix it well (recommended by the waitress) and try the first slurp, it is quite good, especially if you alternate it with some other foods that don't have the peppercorns. You can use the app to close out the ticket, at which point a server will come back to take your payment via a tableside tablet (Toast in this case). read more

Looks like a popular spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I recommended it more for adults and older kiddos. read more

This restaurant is NOT Nine Way anymore and has clearly changed hands.

The food was absolutely awful, it was obvious that new owner has taken over. What a disappointment!!! read more

Pretty good beef noodle soup! Was craving something that reminded me of the Bay Area and stumbled upon Nine Way as I had to go to Redmond for an appointment and wanted to see what else was in the area. Noodles were ok, wish they were thicker. Beef was tender but wish they had tendons or stomach with the beef. Pig ears are the best I've ever had. I got less spicy which was perfect. Nine Way noodles are ok but similar to a stir fry ramen you'd make. Overall, would come back but wouldn't go out of my way. Still worth a try! read more

Sad that the restaurant has gone downhill :( was our favorite place for years (always went for mao cai and dumplings) and new ownership has cut down on quality. Last time we went the szechuanese dumpling recipe was way different, got rid of free rice on the mao cai. Just tried to go in and they've gotten rid of the mao cai entirely, and completely new staff!! Unfortunately there's no reason to go anymore which is so sad because we would go all the time and knew the staff :( read more

Pretty good neighborhood Sichuan spot, prices are reasonable and the QR code makes it easy to order and pay straight from your phone. I've tried their beef noodle soup and dry pot, and both were solid. The broth for the beef noodle soup was too oily though (the friend I came with tried to scoop all the oil out before giving up LOL) but flavor-wise, they have the right idea. I don't see a ton of places serving dry pot in Seattle/Eastside area, so this will be my go-to spot if I'm craving it. Would not go out of my way to come here, but if in the area, worth a visit! I've never had to wait for a table, although I did see people lined up for prime dinner time so I'd come before then if you don't want to wait for a table. read more

Soup wanton and noodle & broth from their clear beef noodle soup is still as yummy but the sliced Beef quality has dropped as it's tough and hard to chew. Ordered my usual mala maocai and is totally different from the past. Mala should not be creamy at all, PERIOD. And the new sauce is just weird and everything is just so dry. Sadly... I won't be coming back. read more

This time around, I tried their Braised Beef Noodle Soup and it was sooooo good and delicious! The flavor of the braised beef was really tender and juicy. The texture of the noodles was also very good and light. What made the whole experience more pleasant was my kind and sweet waiter. She asked me that she recognized me from before, which we were both happy and surprised to know at the same time. She helped me from before when they accidentally over charged me. I remember then when I called the restaurant and she answered and solved everything in a very kind, professional and friendly manner. Now she is my good friend and I have to say I admire her attentiveness and kindness to me and everyone else in the restaurant. It is always nice and pleasant to come here from listening to soft Chinese music, to the perfect waiter who is serving the best winter food you can find around the Eastside of Bellevue. Do yourself a favor and come here and try their soups. I have tried them all now and they are all wonderful and delicious. Enjoy! read more

When I heard that Nine Way was an authentic Sichuan restaurant in Bellevue, I was curious and a little worried for the spice! I was right to be curious, but no need for worry - their chili oil is awesome. We got the Beef Noodle Soup, Noodles with Pork, and Wontons, which all came with chili oil. It's very mala so it's a numbing spice and not a painful spice. I was surprised by how much beef comes in the beef noodle soup, and I shocked myself by finishing all of the broth because it was so delicious. I definitely recommend getting the wontons so you can feel the full spice! read more

This place was pretty tasty but VERY spicy for some of their dishes. I got the Mala make your own dish and the regular spicy was incredibly spicy. I think the dish I got was supposed to be your choices sitting in a huge bowl of oil and you weren't really supposed to eat the oil as soup. It was incredibly spicy to eat. But I did like the salty flavors overall and thought the foods paired well with the white rice. Service was friendly! read more

This place is amazing! Went in on a Thursday evening and found a table right away. You scan and order, but there are servers around to help if needed. They also bring the bill at the end to you. The food is absolutely delicious. You can tell by how perfect the texture of the dough is, and the depth of the chili oil. The chili oil that came with dumplings was so good, I wanted to drink it or save it haha (I resisted). They had mixed the noodles for us at the table. I would highly recommend coming here for an awesome meal. I can't stop thinking about how good it was; I will be back. Filling and a reasonable price. read more

Nine way is a MUST try if you enjoy spicy dry noodles! I always get the nine way noodle because its 10/10. The combination of the sauce and toppings is perfect. The noodles are chewy and cooked to the perfect firmness and it absorbs the sauce very well. Each bite is very satisfying.. I could seriously eat 2 bowls of this in a sitting because it is THAT good!! If you can handle spice, you can request for a higher spice level (I remember they used to have spice level 1-5 on the menu, but didn't see it the last time I went). Spice level 3 for me is a happy medium. I have also tried their hotpot and pickled chicken giblet soup noodle, which were also good. The place doesn't get too busy, so you can usually get a table pretty quickly during meal times. read more
