The love the Chinese have for noodles is perhaps only rivalled by the Italian's love for pizza. There must be at least 100's of different varieties of noodles in China catering to different regions throughout the country. In Beijing alone, there are so many different kinds of noodle dishes in the city, from the traditional Beijing noodles with soy bean paste to braised noodles with cowpea, to the scallion noodles from southern China, and ramen from Japan. Here at Noodle St. in Arcadia, you can sample some of those norther region noodles made with hand pulled. This restaurant mimics the Beijing street food noodles. You can order from four different types of in House made noodles including hand pulled regular round noodle, flat noodle, knife cut noodle and triangle noodles. To go with the noodles, you can choose different toppings. The special beef round noodle is everyone's favorite. The beef is tender and flavorful and the broth tasted amazing. I love their knife cut noodles with egg and tomato. When I was on assignment working in Beijing, I would have one bowl of this kind of noodle at least twice a week at the food court in our office building, just didn't seemed to have enough of them. Other items like scallion pancake, beef rolls, and lamb skewers are excellent. The service is amazing here. Our server kept coming back to our table to make sure our needs were all taking care of. They were very friendly. Highly recommend this place. If you don't want to wait in a long line next door at Din Tai Fung, you can definitely give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Wow! We decided to come here after looking at an hour+ wait at Din Tai Fung. This place was super yum and I didn't expect to have my socks blown off...we came in fairly late in the evening, but service was still good and food came out fairly quickly as well. My friend got the beef noodle soup (not spicy) and she really enjoyed it--apparently she goes to the other location a lot and is already a fan of their noodles. I also got their beef noodle soup (spicier) and was pleasantly surprised to see that they also offer rice noodles. The rice noodles are also very good--they have a light spring to them and did not break apart easily. Lastly, I got a bean curd side that I enjoyed a lot--it's not as soft as other bean curds I've had (where the layers would fall apart), but the seasoning was good and I still enjoyed it a lot. Overall, this place is easily on its way to becoming a 5 star grand slam for me, but I think I would like to try a few more dishes before I make up my mind. This is a great alternative to waiting for Din Tai Fung, and honestly, I think I'd rather come here anyway! read more

Noodle Street offers the most authentic Chinese food. We ordered crunchy green onion pancakes, cucumber salad, savory chicken noodle and bone in rib rice noodle soup, customizable to preferred spice levels with chili oil available at the table. The beef roll pancakes, filled with cilantro and green onions was very delicious. The broth is incredibly savory with rich and deep flavor. The servers at Noodle Street are friendly, and the open kitchen allows diners to observe the chefs skillfully handcrafting noodles, adding an engaging and immersive element to the dining experience. I'm looking forward to returning to try other dishes. read more

Absolutely love this place. Despite it being in the mall it has its own vibe. Big part of the review is based on excellent customer service. Staff is attentive, courteous, and at the same time they will not bother too much needlessly. Thank you for excellent customer service. Food is delicious, fresh, and probably best noodle place I have been to. read more

Noodle St - Savory braise chicken noodle - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

DTF next door had a 3 hour wait so we decided to eat at Noodle St. We've gone to the Monrovia location many times and tried the Arcadia location for the first time today. We ordered a mild beef noodle stew but it was insanely spicy! Once we told one of the waitresses (the one who wears glasses), she went to the kitchen and brought out a nice, clear broth just for us to transfer our noodles and meat into. That was awesome problem solving on their part. I wasn't really expecting them to help but they were able to accommodate our needs and made our dining experience more enjoyable. We really appreciate the staff's creativity and care for their patrons! read more

Great spot at the mall with good customer service. My only issue is that I don't think the food is as flavorful as other similar restaurants and the portions were kind of small, but I would come back since it does the job! read more

On a Friday night, there will be a slight wait. But I think the Arcadia location wait is quicker than Monrovia. They are so accommodating when you have a kid. They made sure to ask if I needed anything specific for my kid, like plastic utensils or a cup with a straw. Little things like this just makes me appreciate the service more. As always, their signature beef noodle soup is good. But at the Arcadia location it's made not spicy. You'll need to add the chili oil yourself. I've also tried their spicy beef noodle before. That's also really good. Their hand made pull noodles is the right amount of chewiness. read more

I'm not hard person to please when it comes to noodles. It's pretty hard to mess this up and most do a decent enough job. This place is about as good as it gets when it comes to food in a food court in a mall. Location: Inside the Westfield shopping mall in Santa Anita in the food court next to Uncle Tetsu. Food: Seasonal vegetable soup was good and not too salty or oily according to my dining companion with plenty of vegetables to go around. I had the Stir Fried Noodles with chicken (you can take your pick of meat protein) with the triangle noodles ( you have your choice 4 different kinds of noodles for all the dishes). This was better than I expected and I would get this one again. Not skimpy on the chicken, plenty of vegetables that were cooked but still crunchy. I really liked there wasn't an inch level of oil sitting at the bottom of my plate at the end of my meal or on my tongue leaving me feeling like I just licked a lard block. Scallion pancakes were also a good choice, but my companion and I feel that they could have benefited with extra scallions in them. The iced green teas were noticeable in flavor (one sweetened, one unsweetened), but the sweetened one may not be sweet enough for some with a major sweet tooth. Summary: All in all, a good experience with this place. Better than I expected ( I wasn't expecting much) and they have a good variety of dishes. A lot of the noodle dishes were spicy and were denoted as such, but a lot them can be modified with the level of spice. Two things are of concern: Need more attention to the diners so they won't have difficulty flagging someone down for service and the get their billing and ordering system straight. Twice, a server gave us a check for another table and twice we almost got dishes that we didn't order. Other than that, this a good spot to stop for a break from shopping or an alternative after visiting the racetrack right next door. Happy eating!! read more

I had spicy beef noodle and beef roll. Both were good, the noodle soup lack spicy flavor, but the standard round noodle was good, and it could add more meat. I like the beef roll, it could be more juicy with sauce inside. It didn't take long for the food to come out, service was good. It's a good place to dine in after some shopping. read more

I wanted cold noodles for the last days of summer and I wanted to try something new. I yelped cold noodles and this place popped up. I've never had Chinese cold noodles before, so I decided to come here. I initially ordered the spring cold noodles and qinghai cold noodles but they told me that they could not make qinghai cold noodles in a timely fashion. So I ordered the beef rolls. Everything was delicious. Strange my Chinese friends don't like cold noodles dishes. I wish they had suggested this place read more

I usually go to Noodle street @ Monrovia. Today I happen to be in Santa Anita Mall, so decided just order from the Arcadia location. As usual I order the "Bone-In Beef Noodle soup", when I get home open up the container, all I saw was just two pieces of meat with bones and noodles. Where are all the cilantro, chopped green onion and Diakon. All I can see is the trace amount of green onions and little cilantro leaves attached to the meat. I remember when I received my to go order of this dish from Monrovia store, the presentation was all nice in the container with saperate clusters of fresh green onion, cilantro, and very generous cut diakon. I strongly recommend the owner of this location should conduct a quality check with the orders, this is really not acceptable. I will probably never want to buy from this location with the quality of food like this read more

Noodle St - Bone-In Beef Spring Cold Noodle with knife Cut Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Dishes here are decent however, NEVER forget anything you purchased at the mall at this establishment. You'll never get it back. We left something we bought near the table kind of tucked away and went back but staff had already left. Ok fine, not a problem, they must've put it in their lost and found right? So we called next day and nope, nothing. They claimed to not have it. Mall was pretty empty when we left because it was near closing time so a rando swiping it seems unlikely. Staff here is not honest, just FYI. read more

The food is pretty good. I didn't have high hopes for service but they wouldn't serve tap water for a to go order which is pretty standard. Not a huge deal but I think kindness and courtesy goes a long way. Got the beef noodle soup and the beef roll. Both were tasty but giving 3 stars just because of the service. This place is hard to get a table so ordering to go is probably best. read more

Noodle St - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

I think the food was absolutely fantastic! I ordered the Spicy Beef Noodle and it was easily the best pulled noodle I ever had. The flavor profile was AMAZING! It was quite a long wait in the beginning, around 25 minutes. Completely understandable since it was so near to lunch hour, but my group easily spent that time visiting other stores and checking out the mall in general. I didn't have to worry about missing them calling my name since they texted my phone when our table was ready! Really recommend getting a spot little earlier than rush hour. Mind you, the food was completely worth the wait though! GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! By the time we sat down for lunch and ordering, the servers were very attentive to us! They were completely understanding for the long wait and were working very hard tables after tables (the restaurant was completely filled). But despite being so busy, all the servers were very accommodating and tried providing the best experience. They constantly checked back on us, asking how we are doing! It has been a while since I've been to a restaurant with such great customer service! I LOVED the experience and will definitely come back for more Shout out to manager Jason! He was the nicest being ever! After placing our order, it took a while. I guess it's because it's hand pulled noodles. But manager Jason noticed when he went up to every table to check on the customers and even offered us a free drink!! Overall, great restaurant and great customer service. Will definitely come back again! read more

Located in Arcadia mall. Food was packed neatly. The noodle was fresh and chewy. Couldn't pick the type id want like the other location though. Portion was a bit small. Tomato egg noodle was on the saucier side. Big plate chicken wasn't as flavorful but chicken was tender. Loved the Beef stuffed pancake; juicy and flavorful. read more

Satisfying on every level. The spicy broth is more "numb your mouth" than it is "make you cry with a runny nose" type of spicy. Chewy noodles, tender meat, seasoned to perfection soup. Flakey pancake with a ton of cilantro and green onion. I wish the egg wasn't hard boiled, I love a jammy yolk, but the braising on it is delicious and not like other cuisine marinated egg. Attentive staff too. read more

I loved my experience at noodle st. It's a great modern Chinese noodle franchise restaurant in the area. Food is absolutely tasty. Even my mom, who is super traditional really approved it. I'd definitely come back to try other things on the menu! Signature Beef Noodle Soup (4/5) - You get the option to choose whatever type of noodles you want. I got the round noodles. They were cooked to perfection not too chewy/doughy. It was super fresh! You can even watch the chefs make it for you at the window. They give you a very generous amount of noodles. - The broth tasted super clean and healthy. - Minus one star for meager slices of beef. Each bowl comes with 5 thinly sliced beef in the shape of a half moon similar to that of a dumpling. If the beef slices were thicker I'd probably give it a 5/5. Beef Roll (5/5) - The pancake roll they use is so crispy and the right amount of chewiness. Absolutely delicious! - It's stuffed with A LOT of cilantro and green onion in the middle so if you're not a fan of either of the 2 this could be too overwhelming. - Comes in 4 pieces Beef Stuffed Pancake (5/5) - Small portion size, only comes in 2 - It's basically a big potsticker in the shape of a square. The dough they use for this is so soft and not too thick --just the right texture. I really enjoyed it! Ambiance/Parking (5/5) - Super clean and new! The interior design of the store is also very modern. Parking is super easy as this location is at the mall. read more

I've been to Noodle Street before but not this location. Came for a quick lunch and to pick up a few items at the mall. Usually I order the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup, but today I wanted something lighter. We ordered the Bone In Rib Rice Noodle Soup with standard round noodles and the Beef Roll Pancake. Both dishes had a refreshing and light flavor yet still filling. The noodles were a good chewy consistency and the broth was flavorful. The bone in rib was tender and juicy as well. The beef roll had a good proportion of vegetables and meat along with hoisin sauce. The pancake had a nice crunch to it. For a lighter noodle soup, this definitely hit the spot. Service was quick and food did not disappoint. Overall a delicious meal and would come again. Located inside Westfield Santa Anita by the Promenade and right next to Uncle Tetsu. The Mall has Plenty of parking outdoor and underground. read more

Food was really yummy. We tried the: - Beef Roll Pancake - Cucumber Salad: nice, refreshing, with black vinegar taste, the perfect side dish - Signature Beef Noodle: nothing like what the menu pictures (you add in your own chili oil), in a way it almost reminds me of pho All 3 were popular items on yelp, and I saw most tables had ordered these. This place is a bit pricier for the same type of food I can get elsewhere, but everything tasted really good. It is right next to Ding Tai Fung, so I can see how lots of hungry foodies will come here if the wait at DTF is too long. There was still a waitlist on a Wednesday lunch hour, but we only had to wait 15-25 mins. Service: they were all nice, but communication amongst themselves seemed lacking. Still not sure who our actual waiter was, so we had to ask any worker for our waters again and the check. We got asked the same question by 3 workers (ie. how many in our party, if we were on the waitlist, and when paying) Pro-tip: if you see a line forming, don't expect that it's the "wait to be seated". Some people realized they weren't on the electronic waitlist and were waiting in a line for parties already called but still waiting for their table to be cleaned read more

Noodle St - Signature beef soup, scallion pancakes, spicy chicken wontons - Noodles Near Me - Arcadia, California

Dining in is open in Los Angeles county at 25-50% capacity depending on the city. I am just glad that we can eat freshly made food again. Justice to the chef's hard work. First I would like to make a confession. We were trying to score a table at Din Tai Fung, and yours truly has forgotten to make a reservation. We received many apologies but unfortunately they could not accommodate us. That's how we ended up at Noodle St. Their menu has many yummy selections, had to try very hard to stop myself from ordering one of everything. The skewer is spicy (they have mild options), and it is cooked just right. The knife cut noodle is so chewy, reminded me of my grandma's cooking. The pancake was amazing, the cucumber probably has a whole bulb of garlic minced. I would probably not recommend it if you are on a date. They placed a handy magnet on the side of the table, so they can place the check there. Very small design, both thumbs up. If I must be super strict and offer one criticism, all of our dishes practically came out at the same time. I would understand that is a great practice if each patron is ordering an individual dish. Since we were more like family style/sharing, from appetizer, to noodle soup, to rice, to cold dish, all came at once was a bit rushed. It would be great if they can pace it out. Otherwise, 5 out of 5 star experience. read more

I got the spicy beef noodles. I really like that you can pick which noodles you want and customize that part of the noodles but I would have preferred the noodles to be a bit more numbing or spicy as a sichuan dish. They do have extra chili oil at the table if you need more spice though. I really was also surprised that they brought the food out in less than 2 minutes after I ordered. I don't know how that was possible. read more

They did not have a plain beef and rice dish for my friend. When my friend initially asked if they could separate the sauce from the Korean BBQ with rice the waiter told my friend that there was no way for them to they told them no in the oddest way ever. The waiter would not stop insisting that they couldn't to the point where it felt almost insulting. And then when our other friend was served the KBBQ with rice, another waiter proceeded to come by and further mansplain why they couldn't separate the marinade. And my other friend who's allergic to eggs had a bite of the cucumber salad (literally nothing else) and symptoms of an allergic reaction started to show up. They also aggressively took the menu from her. The food is mid anyways, nothing special. read more

Quick Summary My favorite beef noodle soup shop in the area. It's like a slightly more upscale 101 noodle express, with slightly better quality food and service. You'll be paying slightly more, but at least they take credit cards and RSVPs on their waitlist on Yelp. They also offer outdoor dining after 11:45am, since the indoor reopening Food- 5 stars We ordered the signature beef noodle, spicy beef noodle, and beef roll pancakes. They make fresh noodles on the spot here and you get to decide which texture (I'm a fan of their knife cut). The spicy beef noodle is good and not spicy at all (coming from someone who is non-tolerant to spicy food). I would recommend the signature beef noodle and beef roll pancakes. Broth was delicious, beef was sliced thin so it melted in your mouth, and the noodles were great. Service- 4 stars Good service without being overbearing as well. Parking There's plenty of mall parking. Bottom Line My go-to beef noodle soup spot! Will be coming back whenever getting the beef noodle craving read more

YUMM YUMM YUMM. Just a heads up that the burrito contains A LOTTT and I mean A LOTT of cilantro so I wouldn't recommend to those who have the tastebuds of cilantro tasting like soap.

I recommend :)) read more

Food was good but service was crap. Din Tai Fung only had take-out option available so decided to give Noodle St a try. Waited less than 10 minutes for a table. After we were seated, it was 15 minutes before they took our order. We tried to wave down waiters and stared at them intensely but they were just walking around and didn't notice us. Waiter didn't bother to tell us the hot water machine was broken when we ordered hot water, which was annoying. We ordered signature beef noodle soup with standard round noodle, spicy beef soup with knife cut noodles and beef roll pancake. The noodles for both soup were good, very Q (chewy). The soup had good flavor. And the scallion pancake for the beef roll was crisp and flavorful. I'd probably skip the mall location and try the other restaurant location hoping for better service. read more

This is a noodle shop inside the food court of an indoor mall. It's next to the Nordstrom. There is no outdoor dining, unless you call inside the mall outdoor dining. We got all of our stuff to go and ate in a local park (P.S. all of the local parks are filled with peacocks... what?) For a food court establishment, this place is pretty good. You order at the counter like a typical food court establishment. Lines can get pretty long. Had to wait half an hour after ordering to get our food. They make the noodles by hand - you can watch them cook behind a big glass window. The options are somewhat slim. For noodle options, you can get beef noodle soup, spicy beef noodle soup, vegetarian noodle soup, or dry noodles with minced beef. The beef noodle soup is the star. Noodles are cooked well, beef is tender, broth is well seasoned. We also got the dry noodles with minced beef, which was nothing special. For apps we got the beef roll and fried tofu. The beef roll was just the right amount of sweetness and constructed well. The fried tofu... could be better. Might be back, but more likely to go to another one of their locations in search of outdoor seating. read more

50 min wait. We were the 2nd party on the place beside another family. We sat down 11:03 am right after they open. And we would think that we will be out by 30 mins. But nope.

They were saying some bullcrap about the noodles taking some time to cook. how about let us know that its going to take this long just to get a single bowl of noodles?

I was exploring Santa Anita mall when hunger called, so I decided to give Noodle St a try. I was dining in with a table of 2 and we ordered 2 Spicy Beef Noodle, and 1 Lamb Skewer. My only issue with my Beef Noodle Soup it was actually extremely spicy. I honestly cannot blame anyone either because it was still extremely tasty. *however I was not able to taste after finishing half the bowl * The star of the show for me ended up being the lamb skewer. As you can see below I got too excited and ended up eating it all and forgot to take a picture, nevertheless it was extremely flavorful and tender. The only thing with the lamb skewer was that the price was a bit on the high side, but quality and taste always beats out price for me. Overall if you're looking for a noodle spot inside of Santa Anita mall do give this place a try! *but please try mild* read more

The service was excellent, they always check in and are more than willing to give any suggestions for food/drinks!
