Delicious! The hand cut noodles are my go to hear in a bowl of soup. When I'm craving a lot of flavor I go for the beef noodle soup, when I want something lighter, it's the vegetable soup I go for. Their sides, tofu, cucumber, beef rolls and cold noodles are all great. Don't expect the service to be exceptional. They are either busy or not too attentive but it's not what I come here for anyway. Atmosphere, well it's in a mall across from din tai Fung, nestled between other shops so alot of action but again, you're coming here for food not for the dining experience! read more

Bone in rib noodle soup is a must try here. Big portion and soup is tasty. So is the lamb skewer. 3 skewer in an order. You can also pick the spicy level. These two are my favorites. The egg tomato over rice is a good vegetarian choice. The eggs are really fluffy but bit too much rice for me. It would also add to the texture with more tomatoes. This restaurant is on the second floor between Nordstrom and ding tai fung in the mall. It was Monday night and we were seated right away. All dishes were served pretty quickly. Service is attentive here. Inside of the restaurant is bright and airy. read more

Good food. There was a fly hovering around when we first got seated and throughout the meal though. It would've been much better if there weren't any. There's a window you can look through to see the chefs at work. It's located next to Nordstrom, near Din Tai Fung. read more

You can join the Yelp waitlist before getting there so I recommend doing that if it's the weekend. Lots of places to sit and the high ceilings make it seem larger than it is. We ordered and the food came out so fast, minus the stir fry noodles which took a bit longer. Cucumber salad was refreshing and the spicy beef noodle was good. Rice noodles were kind of mushy but it's rice so it makes sense. Minced noodles were delicious! read more

Great beef noodle soup. Everything comes out hot and the flavors are delicious. A smaller menu from their other location in Monrovia but it suits the location and it offers all the favorites. read more

The broth from the chicken noodle soup is amazing!! I would definitely recommend it to a friend. I would have preferred the knife cut noodles with this though... the braised chicken was good but I would recommend the chicken noodle soup more. I saw reviews saying the braised chicken was very spicy/salty and I don't think it was. My only issue with this dish was that there was a lot more onion than any other vegetables... I definitely recommend the watermelon juice!!! It's not super sweet and it tastes refreshing! the ambiance here is causal and comfortable. Service was good, they came right away and they were nice. I would come here again but I would definitely change to knife cut noodles and get the noodles soups instead! Thank you Noodle St!! read more

I am not a fan of their clear noodles (or liang pi); there was not enough spiciness and too much vinegar. For every two bites I had to down some water due to the sourness. We also got a side of calamari, which was also bad; it had less than 10 pieces and was over-fried. read more

Noodle St - QINGHAI CLEAR COLD NOODLE - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

We really love this local restaurant. Usually we order takeout because our work schedules get in the way of sitting down together. The food is always very flavorful with several choices on the menu. My favorite is the braised chicken dish. Service is always excellent with a very helpful and welcoming staff. When we have eaten at the restaurant it's very comfortable and service is great. Plenty of parking in the plaza but it can get crowded with several establishments in this old town Monrovia area. Still worth it for sure. read more

There are allergens in the noodle at this restaurant. My skin has turned red after eating it. I also saw the cook wipe his nose with his bare hand and continue preparing food without washing his hands. That is extremely unhygienic and unacceptable. read more

For some reason Noodle Street never quite hits the spot for me. I love knife cut noodles but the ones here are really just ok. Service is very quick - food is served within 10 minutes even if it's busy. They take Yelp waitlist too. Waitstaff is relatively friendly. They have seating inside and also outside of the restaurant- both of which you can people-watch. I've tried the tomato egg noodle, beef noodle, cold noodle, and all of them are just fine. Prices are not bad read more

I always come back here just for the Qinghai Cold Noodles. The vinegary tang paired with the chili oil makes is refreshing. It isn't really spicy and highly recommend especially if you're only gonna try one dish. It's one of those dishes that hits a craving I can't really explain. read more

Noodle St - Qinghai Clear Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Highly recommend getting the flat noodles. They're sooo yummy and they hold the flor of the broth better. The signature beef noodle soup was so yummy. I'm not a massive fan of cilantro but it works. The broth is mouth watering. I didn't try the meat on this one. But the broth with the flat noodles. Ooff. Chefs kiss. The spicy beef noodle was yummy. Very gingery. I got it mild. The spice was just the right amount of kick. I'll order flay noodles next time. The meat melts in your mouth. I would get it again. The wait wasn't crazy. The price, the serving size, and the flavor. Can't ask for more. read more

My friend recommended that we try this restaurant for dinner, and we went with her husband and also my wife as a double date. Noodle St in Arcadia is located inside the Santa Anita Mall, right by Din Tai Fung. There was a short wait to get seats, but eventually we got seated in a comfy table for four. Our friend recommended the Qinghai Cold Noodle and ordered it as an appetizer. We shared the signature beef noodle soup and a side of the beef stuffed pancake. The food came out in a reasonable time. The Qinghai Cold Noodles, which we ordered with knife cut noodles, were solid. Definitely reminded me of pho. The beef stuffed pancake tasted more like a a potsticker than a pancake. It was incredibly juicy. I could definitely order it again and again. read more

Noodle St - Signature Beef Noodle - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

YES! YES! YES! I have been meaning to try this place for a minute. I am glad I did as it was the best decision ever! The potato string shrimp were a little too starchy in my opinion, but they were flavorful nonetheless. The signature beef noodles is delicious. I ordered mine with flat noodles which is great. The beef that is in the soup is not tough or chewy like you would normally get in soups. It was tender and would fall apart almost like butter. My partner stirred the noodles with minced beef before I had a chance to take a picture. It is a dry noodle that does not have broth to it which I thought would make it difficult to stir together, but it was rather effortless. The garlic, carrots and minced beef coated each noodle with the a dressing that is rather difficult to describe but delicious to eat. The portions are rather large so if you do go in a group I would suggest sampling different types of dishes. It is right next to Din Tai Fung and space for this particular restaurant is limited. The employees do try to accommodate bigger parties, but it would be recommended for date night or a party of 6 or fewer. The waitlist for this restaurant is through the OpenTable app which makes it easier to add your name while on your way or to even see how long the wait may be once you arrive. The employees are friendly and consistently checking in to make sure that you are seen and well taken care of. 10/10 recommend and will go back again and again. read more

Food here is great! The signature beef noodle is excellent. It's a wonderful comfort dish in cold weather or if feeling sick. The service was prompt and staff was friendly.

Yum! My mom and I were sat immediately on a Sunday evening. I ordered: - Savory Braised Chicken Noodle: Portions are immaculate and the simplicity yet flavor is amazing. The chicken..... was delicious! I finished my bowl and couldn't leave my mom's leftover chicken behind so I finished hers too. Large serving of noodles and cooked to the perfect texture. Possibly found a new favorite soup go-to during the approaching cold months. read more

Noodle St - Savory Braised Chicken Noodle (Rice Noodle) - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Completely ignored. My friend and I love going to Din Tai Fung but decided to go to Noodle Street instead. We went up to the cashier, and there was a male worker there. He did not acknowledge us at all. We waited patiently while other workers came to speak to him, and we still were not acknowledged. After waiting about 10 minutes, we decided to walk away. He continued fixing his papers and never once said a word to us. I am not sure if my ethnicity contributed to this experience, but I have experienced discrimination a few times in the past, which made the situation feel uncomfortable. The male worker was tall, thin, and of Asian ethnicity. read more

Amazing food as always. My favorite spot to go to at the mall. I love coming for the Signature Beef Noodle Soup and Green Onion Pancake. I also was able to enjoy the stir fry noodles and garlic string beans today. Everything was absolutely delicious! I enjoyed my food with a refreshing passionfruit black tea. It was all extra wonderful because of the attentive service and kindness of the staff. They even gifted me a set of Noodle St chopsticks and a spoon. I love Noodle St!! The best seats, aesthetics, and the best food! read more

Noodle St - Noodle St Bib - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Unexpectedly delicious! We saw they had beef noodle soup, and we got 4 of them for our party of 5. 2 spicy and 2 regular. They have the knife cut noodles which, to me, are way better than the regular noodles. The cucumber salad was also really good, and we also got the beef appetizer that looks like a burrito. They were also huge and very tasty. I liked this place a lot - totally hit the spot. The waiters were professional and friendly. There are plenty of seats in the area - probably warm in the middle of summer since it is pseudo-outside, but for October was comfortable. It wasn't cheap, but honestly nothing is anymore, so comparing to any other sit down restaurant- it was on par on cost but with excellent food and service. read more

What a satisfying treat after not having eaten all day! Stopped by Santa Anita mall today to walk around and came across noodle street and I am happy we did. Though the restaurant is inside a mall, it is still very pretty and you still feel private while having your meal. Service was kind and prompt, I left my card when we were done paying and our waiter chased me down to give me my card, so thankful for her! The food was out very quickly; the only thing is they do bring the food out as it's ready not in a group, but they are so fast it's not much waiting time in between. I got the spicy beef noodle and a side of French fries and my friend got the chicken soup. The spicy beef noodle isn't extremely spicy, but it definitely builds up and will have your lips tingling, it was really good. The beef was so so tender, it literally melts in your mouth and it soaks up all the yummy broth so well. I opted for regular noodles and they were the perfect choice for this soup. Fries were okay, wish they were crispier. I had some of my friends chicken and it also was great! Overall a great visit! read more

Noodle St - Spicy Beef Noodle - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Can't help but feel this place is a little racist. They sit us down and ignore us but serve everyone that's Asian around us. Another non Asian couple was also ignored which makes me feel it's a little more systematic and a little less coincidence. I can't recommend coming here. I highly recommend not visiting this location. In short, the servers will ignore you, unless you're Asian. 0 out of 10, I do not recommend. read more

I absolutely love this restaurant. I went for the first time in Pasadena and I LOVED it. I always skipped this place to go to dinner tai fung next door and I will never make that mistake again. The noodles are so fresh and the broth is so clear and refreshing. Noodle st definitely the definition of less is more. Although their isn't going on too much in the soup everything together pairs so well making it the best restaurant at this mall. You can adjust the spiceness of the soup which I love. Their scallion pancakes are absolutely phenomenal and I love their beef rolls. I have not stopped eating here since I tried it. 15/10 recommend read more

Would've enjoy my noodles better if we weren't attacked by FLIES. I was only able to capture three flies in this photo after continuously swatting them throughout dinner. The server didn't bother to move us to another table when we raised our concerns or move these plates. Black bean sauce or fly? Definitely won't be coming back. read more

Totally loved the food! But the guy who served us was blah. I actually called the restaurant to find out exact location and he took the call like "what are you asking?!?". Then when we arrived at the restaurant of course the same guy is serving us. Not the best person to be working at a job that's customer facing. Other ladies that work there are nice. Ambiance is whatever's since it's inside the mall, next to Din Tai Fung but it's literally in the hallway next to DTF. Good casual dining place for lunch but maybe not for dinner, especially important dinner. Will definitely try other locations but not here. Loved the noodles and the beef wrap!! Would've gave 5 if it wasn't for the rude server.. read more

With the weather heating up, I dropped by Noodle St. for something refreshing and light. I decided to order their dry cold noodles, a sliced beef pancake wrap, and an icy cold black tea. Unfortunately, the experience left me with mixed feelings. FOOD: * Dry Cold Noodles: The dish looked promising, presented almost like a Korean Bibimbap, with sliced beef, shredded carrots, and poached spinach artfully arranged. However, the taste fell flat. The noodles weren't particularly cold, and the flavor leaned heavily on spicy and sour, lacking depth. Also, the toppings appeared to have been prepped well in advance -- the beef and veggies looked dry, likely from sitting out too long. A simple fix could be assembling the dish after pouring in the vinegar and chili oil to freshen things up. * Beef Pancake Wrap: This was the highlight of the meal. A warm, crispy scallion pancake wrapped around sliced marinated beef, fresh cilantro, and a touch of Hoisin sauce (I think). The flavors were balanced, savory, and satisfying. * Iced Black Tea: Surprisingly good! Nicely brewed with a subtle Earl Grey fragrance that added a nice twist. SERVICE: Disappointing. Even with enough staff on hand during off-peak hours, it took over five minutes just to be acknowledged and seated. The host never made eye contact or asked if the table was okay -- just pointed and walked away. I noticed this wasn't just my experience; other guests received similarly indifferent treatment. Two staff members were at the front -- one busy refilling to-go soy sauces, the other simply ignoring the growing line of customers waiting to be seated. When I asked for a recommendation, the waiter's response was robotic: "What we have on the menu is what we offer." No effort to engage or help. AMBIANCE: The restaurant is located in a mall and offers some outdoor seating, which could be nice on a breezy day. Inside, the atmosphere felt average -- not particularly warm or inviting, which matched the tone of the service. FINAL THOUGHTS Would I return? Maybe, for the beef pancake wrap and iced tea. But the overall experience needs work -- especially the service and the attention to detail in the cold noodle dish. With a bit more care in preparation and customer interaction, Noodle St. could be much better. Rating: (3/5) read more

We discovered this restaurant at the Santa Anita mall . Since then we ate at the other locations in Fullerton, Irvine. My go to- Spicy Beef Noodle soup with round noodles, onion pancakes #1 - Arcadia/ Santa Anita Mall - lamb skewers, great service, ambience #2 - Irvine location and ambience #3- the restaurant is kinda small but food is still good read more

This place was delicious. Customer service great. I highly recommend this place. Very clean and good is served fast.

This restaurant was recommended by my daughter. However, every time I had a chance to eat here, all of the tables were full. We were lucky to get a table for lunch on a weekday at 11:45 am. By the time our meals came, every table was full. The food is terrific! The broth is so delicious, and the flavor in the stir-fry was awesome. We'll definitely looking forward to coming back and trying other dishes. It's located inside the Santa Anita Mall next to Nordstroms. I thought it was going to be noisy, but it was pleasantly on the quiet side. Highly recommend this place. read more

Noodle St - SPICY BEEF NOODLE SOUPnoodle - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Clear delicious broth is what I liked most about this place and very attentive staff. I came here twice in the same week, once with friends and once with family. Both times I had the signature beef noodle soup, which I enjoyed the clear tasty broth. It reminds me of pho soup, but with Chinese style noodles and garnish. We like getting the knife cut noodles because they are very thick. Other items we got was the calamari, which was good because the pieces are thick and paired well with the dipping sauce. We wished they also add more spice on it for more variety. We got more than I expected, so good portions. We loved the cucumber salad. Tastes good when you get it there because the sauce drops to the bottom, but you are the left with the most garlic and cilantro mix on the top of the cucumber that tastes so good. The cucumber is a must. I also had the their watermelon juice, which was soo good because it freshly grounded watermelon, which they display on the front. Definitely worth it! Both times, the waiters and staff was very attentive and very nice. We liked watching the cooks make our noodles and cook food. The ambience is very nice. Glad we tried it again in-person. read more

Food was good and the service was super fast. I got the cold noodle dish for $11 and it was just enough for me. My friend got the beef noodle soup. One review on here said it was like pho, and I honestly didn't believe it until the soup came out. The broth was clearer than most Taiwanese beef noodle soups and definitely reminiscent of pho somehow! It was strange, but it tasted good. Beef was tender too. It was pretty loud and crowded but it's in the middle of the mall so it makes sense. Would go back again! read more

Noodle St - QINGHAI CLEAR COLD SIGNATURE and BEEF NOODLE SOUP - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

This is now my favorite noodle place, hands down. Major bonus points for being halal as well. Located in a spacious mall, you can work for your appetite before gorging. This location is very spacious, clean, with friendly and accommodating staff. For drinks I got a cold, sweetened green tea which you can take to go as it's served in a plastic cup typically used for bubble tea. Paired great with the meal, very refreshing. I'd ordered the first dish I saw, which is the Qinghai clear cold noodle. The noodles were large, flat, thick, and sponged the broth along with garlic and chive garnish very well. I've never had anything like this dish and I'm glad I had. It's very comforting and you can order it mild on the spice level which I did. My friend ordered the spicy beef noodle soup. Everything about this was a home run. The beef was savory and tender, the noodles had some of the most flavor and best texture I've ever personally tried. We'd also ordered the beef roll pancake for the table which came with 4 large pieces. This was melt-in-your-mouth, and I could absolutely see myself eating this forever. The hoisin sauce balanced the savory dish with a sweet touch, and made every crispy, flaky bite that much more satisfying. This was my favorite of the three, although all were absolutely amazing in their own right which speaks to the praise of these rolls. Great prices, nice portion sizes, clean, great service. Will come back here as soon as I can to try more options. read more

Think of Noodle St as your backup prom date. You want Din Tai Fung at The Shops at Santa Anita really badly, but you don't want to wait for 2+ hours and you gotta have Chinese noodle. At the end you decide to come here because the restaurant is right next to Din Tai Fung and the wait is only 15 minutes. Noodle St specialize in hand pulled noodles and this is currently one of six Noodle St locations in Southern California. This eatery is wheelchair friendly and offers four different types of noodles - standard round, flat, triangle, and knife cut. *** Spicy Beef Noodle (chunks of beef shank, spinach, pickled veggie, cilantro and green onions - knife cut noodle, $15.50): This is Chinese chili oil or Sichuan type of numbing spice. Chewy knife cut noodle and good beef, but unfortunately I am just not a fan of numbing spiciness and I barely sipped the broth. Beef Roll Pancake (beef, green onions, cilantro and hoisin sauce - 4 pieces, $11.80): Flaky crust, but flavors didn't get pack enough punch. Tasted alright, but generous portion. *** It's not a terrible alternative option to Din Tai Fung while you are physically at the mall, but I would still choose noodle at Din Tai Fung over Noodle St given equal waiting time. read more

I got the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup with the standard round noodles. I like the texture because it's not too chewy. The flat noodles are also good but they are slightly chewier. I got mild and it wasn't too spicy. The beef was very tender and soft which I loved. I thought the Scallion Pancakes were okay. The Cucumber Salad was pretty light in flavor so I wish it had more garlic. I came on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't that busy so service was relatively quick. Overall, I would probably only come back for their noodles. read more

Came here at around 2:30 PM on a Sunday for a party of 2, the restaurant is conveniently located on the second floor of the Santa Anita Mall closeby other restaurants. The menu is diverse, appropriately priced, with something for everyone. I highly recommend the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup--it's rich, flavorful, and just the right level of spice. The hand-pulled noodles are cooked to perfection, with a chewy texture that complements the hearty broth beautifully. The beef was tender and delicious. The cold noodles were fantastic as well, the noodles were thick and the spice level was nice! I would gladly come here again!

I had no expectations going into Noodle St. My family and I have seen it multiple times before when buying Uncle Tetsu's as it is right next door. How could a small noodle shop, inside a mall, next to Ding Tai Fung, even possibly survive? After running out of options to try in the Westfield Santa Anita Mall, it was finally time to try Noodle St. We checked in online on Yelp (definitely a pro tip when reserving seats), and my wife stood guard. The entire family of seven was seated within about fifteen minutes. We were given menus and kept oggling certain items such as the beef roll pancake and lamb skewers. We added potato string shrimp, signature beef noodles (with knife-cut noodles), noodles with minced beef sauce (with triangle noodles), bone-in rib noodle soup (with knife-cut noodles), chicken noodle soup (with standard round noodles), and spicy beef noodles (with knife-cut noodles). The other noodle choice that we could have opted for was the flat noodle but perhaps another time. Although we were seated in the corner, we could still see and hear the chefs pulling and slapping the noodles creating that classic "biang" noise with homemade noodles. Within minutes, our appetizers started coming, quickly followed by our soups. What caught us off guard was the depth of flavor within the broths. The chicken broth was so clear and flavorful as if chicken bones and bits were left simmering for days. One kid preferred the knife cut while the other enjoyed the standard round noodles but both loved this chicken broth. My wife loved the chewiness of the noodles with just enough bite. Each knife-cut noodle delicately lapped up the rich, deep broth. Another item that surprised us was the beef roll pancake. We had our fair share with my in-laws preferring Asian palates. This beef roll was stuffed to the brim and filled with the right amount of savory beef, cilantro, and hoisin sauce. The crunchy pancake juxtaposed with the soft, tender beef really sealed the deal. Upon paying the bill, our two kids noticed the freezer of macaroon ice cream situated near the cashier (dang, product placement)! The cashier told us they were having a sale for four for twenty dollars. Ehh, we spend so much anyway, might as well blow a few more dollars. All-in-all, Noodle St is definitely a place to try. I recommended booking a table ahead of time on Yelp and enjoying the rich broths, chewy noodles, and delicious appetizers. read more
