COVID-19 Review Edition Came here twice in a week because I saw on the FB group, SGV Eats, that a new restaurant opened up in the Santa Anita Mall. I'm a big fan of knife cut noodles and the type of the food they serve which seems like a mix of Taiwanese food and Northern Chinese food. It's my type of comfort food. The first time I was here, I dined in and ordered 4 items - the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup with knife cut noodles (which you can choose what kind of noodles you want), Fried Tofu, Cold Clear Noodles, and the Beef Pancakes. I think my favorite was probably the beef noodle soup, which I really liked the savoriness of the broth. It wasn't spicy at all but the chilis in it did really give it a fragrant flavor. The chewiness of the knife cut noodles makes the dish even better. Whenever you're ordering a noodle dish here, go for the knife cut noodles. You can taste the freshness of the noodles that was just made and because it's fresh, it tastes more chewy and bouncy. The fried tofu was pretty good too, not a fan that it was cut into teeny tiny small cubes and it lacked flavor unless dipped in the sweet and sour sauce. The clear cold noodles was another one of my favorites and it contained A LOT of chili sauce but it was somewhat sour and a hint of sweetness, it wasn't spicy at all either but it came with gluten, like how it should traditionally be. Would recommend to get this also. My least favorite of them all was the Beef Stuffed Pancakes, I recommend to skip this. They take hella long to make and they're really small. In the photos, I would assume it was be bigger but when this came out like towards the end of our meal, we were super surprised on how puny it was. Probably not worth your money. Employees followed the COVID safety protocols with gloves and masks and service was good. Would I come again? Maybe if I'm in the area. I hope they expand their menu because between the 2 times that I came here, I basically tried all of their things but this is a decent place with decent prices considering it's located at the mall. read more

Noodle St - Qunghai Clear Cold Noodle - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

I love hand pulled noodles! But Noodle St's were just okay. Maybe because they no longer allow in door dining and we had to take our noodles home... got their savory braised chicken noodles and the noodles clumped into one giant mass by the time I got home. The flavor was also just so so... actually under seasoned and could only taste a hint of salt. The portion was actually pretty generous. 30 mins for our noodles to be ready. We took the time to walk around the mall and got uncle tetsu next door. Overall - I will probably stick to their food court next time. read more

I've decided to take my Dad out for a nice casual lunch on my day off :) The food was good but today ..the beef rolls were served cold . ( too much green onions and lacking of any flavors of cilantro). I'd really preferred the noodle street At the Monrovia location much much better. :) ( both in quality of services and food ). Over all ambience is satisfactory . We had a good time here . read more

Food is great. Noodles were good and the beef roll is wonderful. Service was very good and the ambience is also good. You got to try. Everything is excellent. Thank you read more

I've heard great things about Noodle St and decided to dine here for dinner. I'm glad we decided to come early because it got pretty busy after we got seated and there was a a long wait. I saw some customers getting upset about the wait time for the food but the staff handled everything so well and did the best they can. We ordered the beef roll, spicy beef noodle soup and the spring cold noodles. I loved the spring cold noodles! We liked it so much we ordered another one to go for our family to try. The spicy beef noodle soup was good as well, I thought it could have been more spicy. The portion was big and came with a decent amount of beef. Our beef roll came after our entrees and it was okay. The flavor was good but I thought it had too much cilantro and I love cilantro. Overall we enjoyed our dinner, the service was slow but the staff were friendly. I would return to try the rest of the menu and to come back for the spring noodles! read more

Really enjoyed the food here! Came here on a weekend and waited about 30 minutes for a table. They take your phone number so you can walk around as you wait. They're currently doing outdoor dining in the promenade area. The service here was good also! They came by occasionally to check in on you and make sure everything is ok. Love that they have different noodle options for you to choose. Their spicy beef noodle soup was definitely something I would come here again for. I could drink the soup for days. The broth wasn't overly salty like how some places make it to be. It was perfect and still so flavorful. Their cucumber appetizer is also really good. Nice and refreshing side to your hearty bowl of noodle soup. read more

This place is so yummy and satisfies my craving for egg tomato noodles every time I go. The noodles are all hand pulled and the perfect consistency. I also like my noodles on the thicker side so the knife cut noodles are my go to. I've also gotten their beef roll and it's pretty good! The dumplings are also super juicy. Can't wait to go back again to try something new. read more

Noodle St - Egg with Tomato Over Knife Cut Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

I like this place! I think it's a great alternative if the line is too long at Din Tai Fung, cause this place's wait time is a lot shorter.. except there's no xiao long baos at this place :( I like how this was very clean and everything else was nicely presentable. The beef noodles were pretty standard. I ordered the spicy beef noodle soup with triangle cut noodle and they were fairly chewy and also not too hard either. It was also not that spicy at all, especially if my spicy tolerance is pretty low, it was not painfully spicy to eat! The green onion pancake were pretty small, but not as oily as many other places. We also shared a beef roll and that one was probably my favorite! It was very refreshing tasting and it was not as oily and greasy as a lot of places. read more

My go-to comfort food. So glad that they opened a new location inside of the Arcadia Mall. It's located right in front of Din Tai Fong indoor. My favorites are their signature beef noodle soup with knife cut noodle and beef rolls pancakes. *drools* Also, look at this location. It's very modern and pretty. Love the interior design!! read more

The service was great! The waitress took our order quick. Noodle St had a variety of soup selections and we choose two beef- different styles of beef and one savory braised chicken. The chicken soup noodle soup was a hit!! I prefer getting the chicken soup from here than PHO!! Good thing was we didn't have to wait so long the food came out within 15 minutes. The soup portions are big and fulfilling. Also, recommend getting an order of the scallion pancakes on the side!! FYI ~ it's Halal friendly !!! read more

Great food and service. Specifically a fan of the Spicy chicken wontons. It's fairly popular place plus at the mall. so yes, there will be some waiting time. Passion fruit tea is also a winner and if you're not a fan of that fruit. Watermelon is also pretty good. read more

I follow Noodle St on Instagram so every day I see all these wonderful noodles and soups that I should rush to have! So, on a trip down South, I had to use Yelp to join the wait list and avoid the lines. The wait list was convenient and we got seated once we checked in and lunch was served within minutes. The beef pancake was superb and was shared with two people. I oddly added the black vinegar on the table and it made it perfect. The spicy beef noodle soup had flavor and spice for days. The homemade noodles made the dish unique and I look forward to my next opportunity to try it again! read more

You can either order ahead for takeout & pick your food up at their physical location inside the Westfield Mall or you can do patio dining outside. Just tell the worker at the podium and you will be seated promptly. It's really neat that you can choose how you'd like your noodles to be cut to determine the chewiness. I ordered the signature beef and rice noodle soup with triangular cut noodles. The chewiness was done to perfection and I just lobbed the entirety of the chili oil in. Not super spicy at all, just a nice slow heat. The beef slices were tender enough and we got a good amount (not like 2 slices some other noodle places do). Very filling and affordable for a dine in place. Water was replaced very quickly with disposable cups. Although they use reusable tableware, you can ask for disposable (though this did take some time since it seemed like only one worker was assigned the patio, while everyone else was at the physical location). Not bad! read more

The worst noodle street out of all locations. I hate to say it because I live noodle street and I visit the Pasadena location quite often. Writing this review because my fried tofu was flavorless... no seasoning? Seriously? This is my second time trying this location and my second time being disappointed. Just stick to the Pasadena location it's leagues better than here. read more

Noodle St. is located upstairs near Nordstrom. There is hand sanitizer available for customers. They have a touch screen kiosk set up where you can place to go orders if you pay with card. Ordered: -Signature Beef Noodle: sliced beef shank, radishes, cilantro, and leeks. I opted for knife cut noodles. I like the texture the of the knife cut noodles. I wish they gave more slices of beef shank. My bf took a sip of the soup and said it reminded him of pho but it has a very strong white pepper taste. That strong white pepper taste gets overwhelming after a while. -Beef Roll Pancake: beef, green onions, cilantro, and hoisin sauce (4 pcs). I really like how crispy and flakey the green onion pancake is. I didn't get to eat it until 40 minutes after I got the food so it's probably even better when it first comes out. Unfortunately, they really skimp on the beef. read more

The Noodle St in Arcadia inside the Santa Anita mall is a hidden jewel. The food and service were top notch. Our server, Vin, was very attentive and helpful answering all of our many questions. The food is unique and exceptional. The "Qinghai clear cold noodle" is SO tasty. The chef told us it's a secret recipe that they make by hand. It is so popular that they recommend coming early because they sell out of the dish quickly. We also tried their Cucumber salad, crispy tofu and stir fry noodles- all equally delicious. I rarely write a review in Yelp but this establishment deserves a lot of praise. read more

Good service and good food, delicious. Ambiance is a bit loud but that's expected from a mall. Short wait times most times I've gone.

Been wanting to check this out since I found out they opened for outdoor dining. Finally got the chance to try it and my friend and I loved it! Got their signature beef noodle soup and they serve the chilies on the side. I put everything in and it still wasn't too spicy - very flavorful broth. Really love their hand pulled noodles. Only wish they have a bit more meat and veggies in their soup. My friend got their vegetarian/vegan noodle soup with vegan knife cut noodles and she loved it. We also got their cold cucumbers and Kim chi fried rice and both were very good. I would definitely come back and try their other menu items. We were served by Christina and Kirk and both were super friendly and attentive. We enjoyed much conversations with them. Also, they serve everything on a cart with covers so it's nice to know that they take Covid safety seriously read more

Spicy beef noodle soup is always good! The triangle cut is easier to eat. The drinks are okay.

New Asian noodle eatery at the mall! It sits right next to Uncle Tetsu and replaced the previous Japanese place. The posted the menu with QR code so you can place order over phone. But I opted to order in person with the cashier. They do have a plexi glass for distancing at the cashier. I ordered the Beef Roll pancake and the signature beef noodle soup with knife cut noodles and non spicy. The beef roll pancake was cut into 4 good size pieces. It had a ton of green onions and cilantros and the beef was tender. The outside pancake was still crispy and I love all the grilled marks. However, it can definitely use a LOT more hoisin sauce. Since I enjoyed this at home, I was able to add my own sauce to every bite. The signature beef noodle soup's broth by itself was delicious! They do give you a big container full for take-out so you definitely have enough for your noodles and still have leftovers to enjoy by itself as a broth. Since my order was to-go, the noodles were sticky to one another and it breaks when you try to separate it. I'm pretty sure the noodles would be better if you dine-in, so I'll give it another when it can be safely done again after Covid time. The noodles does indeed tastes fresh, but my all time favorite is still Bang Bang Noodles. Overall a great addition to the mall and I would like to try their scallion pancake or the Tomato Egg noodles on my next visit. read more

I love going to this place for their clear cold noodle as it is one of my favorite dish. I also like their spicy beef noodle soup. It is very flavorful. read more

Decent experience unfortunately Food was bland. Great portions but very bland. I had huge sliced undercooked veggies like onion, bell peppers, and potatoes. Noodles were good some doughy not chewy like they were not done cooking. Chicken tasted like it was marinated in teriyaki sauce for 30 mins and tossed into my broth to finish cooking or pre boiled.. Good ambience and its appearance. Very clean. I got the savory chicken noodles and spicy dumplings (probably the best thing) Friendly staff Flavor: 3/5 Service: 5/5 read more

We've been to this location a hand full of times and every time is does not disappoint. I dream about these noodles. Staff here is also very nice and the wait isn't bad at all. Service is always good, food is always good and it's always super clean inside. read more

Noodle St - Qinghai Clear Noodles. 10/10 favorite dish! - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Food is great and the service is really well, nice and friendly people. I can eat these food over and over again.

COVID SAFETY: Its located in the Westfield mall but picking up was easy and everyone was following social distancing guidelines. FOOD: I've only been here once and tried their clear cold noodles. The dish was pretty good at first but after a while, it started to taste bland. I think it's because there wasn't anything else added to the dish except for a small amount of tofu. OVERALL: I'd come here again to try their other dishes but I would probably recommend if anyone wants to try the clear noodles to order it as an appetizer but not as a meal since it becomes flavorless after a few bites. read more

After passing by this place like a hundred times in the mall, I finally decided to give it a try and dine in. Luckily the wait time ended up being shorter than expected. The spicy beef noodle soup was delicious, but not the best I've ever had. It was only a little spicy, so it was great to have the chili oil to add in. The egg with tomato noodle was ok. It was just too watery for my liking. I love the knife cut noodles, as they are extremely chewy and smooth. Decent food option for dining at the mall. read more

It's a must to get a noodle dish here. Fresh noodles just taste so much better than the ones from the grocery store. They have a four noodle types for you to choose. My personal recommendation is either knife cute or triangle - depending on your preferences. Knife cut noodles is just always a classic that you can't go wrong with. The triangle noodles are an in-between a round and a knife cut noodle type. But the grooves, allow the flavors to be gripped in the noodles more. I think the round is a bit too thin and the flat is a bit too wide for my preferences. It is located in a mall, so if there's a wait you can put your name down and walk around and window shop/shop while you wait. ..... EGG WITH TOMATO NOODLE: 5/5 the tomatoes add a sweetness that is truly unique to this classic nostalgic dish and I would say that this dish (although simple) was extremely well done read more

Got food poisoning from their braised chicken noodle. Slightly salty, wouldnt recommend

Very good signature beef noodle soup. This was my second time getting it. I got it medium spicy with the normal thin round noodles. I tried the lamb skewers medium spicy. They were a bit too salty, so probably wouldn't get it again. read more

So crazy to find the made-to-order hand-pulled Chinese noodle in a mall. But here it is. Noodle Street in Westfield Santa Anita now has not only the Din Tai Fung soup dumplings, Hai Di Lao hot pot, Meizhou Dongpo Peking duck and Dongpo meat (red braised pork belly), Taiwanese taro balls and boba, we can now get the hand-pulled noodle and beef roll, all under one roof. Living in West LA, we used to make multiple stops in Alhambra, San Gabriel and Arcadia during the weekend to buy Chinese takeouts for us the week. I can now make one stop here and get my food shopping done, not only for us old folks but also for my young adult son with Massis, Bahi Cali Fish Tacos, Chicken (hot chicken, fried, chick-fil-A...) But I digress. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the flat/wide noodle and the knife cut noodles, though the standard round and triangle are legit too. The beef broth is flavorful -- reminds me the "beef noodles" episode in the Netflix series "Flavorful Origins." So far everything I have tried is great. It's detrimental to my low-carb diet but worth it! delish! Please come over and open stores at the Westfield Century City or Fashion Square! read more

Noodle St is a chain noodle joint. This new location is inside the Santa Anita Mall across from DTF. The location is bad luck, they have changed restaurants so many times. Hopefully they can survive. Ordered take out. Food was ready as quoted. Beef Roll Pancake - $10.80 - Good ratio roll. Usually it is made to thick and doughy. Well pan fried. Beef was flavored nice. Great with hot sauce. Not overly oily. Spicy Beef Noodle Soup - $14.80 - The hand cut noodles are great. I loved the chew. Soup was not spicy as is but when you add their chili oil, it is fire. The heat was so nice and not overly oily. Beef was tender. Portion was pretty large. Would dine in next time. read more
