Aya C.

Definitely an Asian fusion spot. The flavors were all well paired and interesting. I enjoyed my meal but wasn't wowed to the extent of returning. The bathroom could use some cleaning as it was quite gross. The ambiance was cute. And I have no real comment on the service because I ordered at the counter and brought my food to the table. Kind of like elevated fast food if you will. The ube matcha was yummy tho

CYO Wok
Alexa K.

I've had this in my list forever, and it was absolutely worth it! Highly customizable, super fresh, and absolutely humongous portions. Staff is fantastic and super helpful, and the space has free WiFi, and water. This place is absolutely going to become one of my go-to's!

Tingy Tangy Noodles with Roasted Chicken
Patrick Z.

Wow y'all these noodles actually hit the spot so hard. Got the Tingy Tangy and added roasted chicken. The noodles were thick and so soft, and the flavor of the sauce was on point like tingy tangy really describes it well lol. I thought the portion was pretty good too!

The perfect takeout if you live in the area. Was very tasty and delicious. Recommend!

The  K.F.C. Tenders (gluten-free) and The Braised Beef Noodle Soup!!!
Alex F.

Wow absolutely amazing, It was my first time being here in Noodlelove and the food is amazing. I looked at the menu and there are some good options for the Soups,Bites and Buns,Fresh, and the Wok. You can also see what's in there for the food. Like Vegan, Spicy, Contains Gluten, Chef recommends Pairing, and also the Most loved food ever. The service is really good. They are so nice and welcoming. I tired the Braised Beef Noodles and the K.F.C. Buns with my partner. I would recommend those in the menu, they are really good. I will show a picture of it and sorry if it's just one cause we were really hungry and the food is amazing. And also, you can customize your noodles as well! Of how ever you like it. Thank you so much for the food, Noodleslove. I would totally eat here again!

purse hooks at the bar

What started as a casual vegan lunch spot turned into a noisy but worthwhile reminder that good food doesn't need meat or peace and quiet. I was soggy, starving, and somewhere between "I could cry" and "I could devour a small country." So when my friends and I stumbled into Noodle Love in New York City, it felt like a warm hug in the form of carbs and chili oil. This wasn't a planned food adventure, but dfinitely a much-needed escape from the New York drizzle and noise. But you know I always review honestly, so here's the truth of what actually happened: The place was adorable, like café-meets-fast-casual with bright art, leafy accents, and seating that actually fits a human. Major bonus: bar seating had outlets and purse hooks (purse hooks much appreciated). The menu was a millennial fever dream--healthy, colorful, and refreshingly customizable. I love that they made it so easy to choose vegan or vegetarian dishes, and the spice levels could be adjusted. My friends and I split three bowls between us: Im pretty sure they were the Thai Basil Chop with crushed peanuts and Thai chilli sauce, the Spicy Kimchi Crunch stacked with veggies like jicama and radish, and a Tofu noodle dish that made me question why tofu ever gets shade. The staff who served us was sweet and patient, even when they had to tell me that some of the bestsellers were sold out. Sad for me. Great sign for them. Clearly, the locals know the best on the menu. The Whole Vibe of the place: Let's just say I walked out looking like a spice-drenched noodle convert with a semi-cleansed aura and zero regrets. But if you're hoping for a place to talk and catch up on life with friends, there could be better options. It's a little echoey, and between the conversations, background music, and the general noodle chaos, we had a hard time talking through the noise from across the table. It was like hosting a podcast no one asked for. If I had to nitpick, it was too noisy to linger too long. A few signature bowls were sold out. And the house-brewed kombucha wasn't available the day we went, which felt like a letdown. I was looking forward to that, BUT none of that ruined the food at all. It's subway-accessible and perfect for a quick pop-in. Parking is a nightmare, but it's New York - it's a city where you don't want to drive in. There were actual charging outlets, which made it tempting to camp out if not for the noise. Booth seating was comfy, and it felt like the kind of place you could do a quick lunch break or solo food stop between meetings. The bathroom was clean enough. Not luxury, but serviceable. The kitchen looked tidy, and the ingredients looked fresh, which always gives me peace of mind. Would I go back? YES, for a spicy, fast lunch or post-workout refuel. Not for deep conversations or a three-hour hangout though. If you're noodle-curious in NYC and want something fresh, fast, and plant-friendly, this is a solid spot worth checking out.

Easy, fast and Tasty. The service was good The place is little and it was hot inside, the outside seats were comfortable.

Peanut Chili Noodles () with glass noodle
Gianna L.

VERY GOOD . The noodles were delicious, the sauce was creamy with the perfect amount of spice. I subbed out the udon noodles for glass noodles and they went perfect with the enoki mushrooms. The place has a nice vibe and window seating . Service was good .

1/1 Ambience; 1.5/2 Food + Beverages; 1/1 Service; 1/1 Value Noodlelove traverses the zone between fast and casual sit-down restaurants with a modern, airy and spacious interior, but a walk-up register where patrons place their own orders with myriad customizable options. My friend and I especially loved the seating by the counters at the windows, perfect for people watching in SoHo! I got the KBBQ rice bowl with chicken and my friend got the bibimbap with chicken. We were both very satisfied with the flavors, all of which were balanced and complemented each other. The KBBQ rice bowl was savory and rich with umami flavor and a hint of sweetness. There was a beautiful smokey flavor that suggests that the chicken was grilled over a real flame. I love smokier flavors, so this was perfect for me. The bowl was not spicy at all, but they have sriracha on the side that can be added. I don't think the purple rice added different a flavor to the bowl, but it sure did make it more aesthetically pleasing! All the ingredients were fresh, and the meal was filling without being heavy or boggy. The staff was friendly and the food was prepared and served piping hot expediently. Overall, it is perhaps a littler pricier for the fast-casual scene, but for the portion size with the freshness and quality (and in consideration of the neighborhood) I think it is justified. I have probably walked by Noodlelove a hundred times before, but I'm glad that I finally stepped in because of how great of an experience this was!

Create your own bowl (refer to review for description)
Stephen L.

Noodlelove is in a unique middle ground. It is a sit-down restaurant, yet its menu and food options are kind of like a fast casual restaurant (in terms of ordering, not quality). It appears at first like an Americanized Asian restaurant with its modern and Westernized decor, yet it offers some traditional Asian ingredients in the bowls. I did the "create your own bowl" and got mine with purple rice, bean sprouts, snow pea leaves, watermelon radish, enoki mushrooms, sesame soy sauce, and Korean flank steak (you can see what I mean with the ingredients). This cost me $11 + $8.50 for the steak, which was a typical sit-down restaurant price. The bowl was pretty good - no particular ingredients that especially stood out to me, but I will add that the rice was a bit too oily though. I also tried the Royal Japchae with roasted chicken ($12 + $5 for the chicken), which seemed to be a pretty standard traditional preparation of japchae and was pretty good as well. They have some interesting drink options, which seem to blend some different cuisines (again, highlighting the interesting positioning of the restaurant). I ordered an Ube Horchata, which had some classic horchata on the bottom with a foamy layer of ube froth / liquid on top. This was very unique and tasty, however the cup was literally half filled with ice, so the portion size was actually very small. At least it was only $6, but still... also our waiter forgot about our drink until I reminded him about it later on which was not a good start to the meal. On the topic of service, our waiter was otherwise actually very friendly. The service speed was a bit on the slow side though. As mentioned earlier, the restaurant's decor / atmosphere is like a mix of Western and Eastern styles. There is a decent amount of seating with no wait on a weekend night. Overall, if you are looking for a good Asian restaurant that is sit-down yet not like a fancy sit-down place, then Noodlelove could be a very good option for you.

Thai Noodle Salad - NEW
Tori B.

This place was great! I got the cold noodle salad and it really hit the spot after a long work day! The staff was friendly and kept things simple and easy. Restaurant is dark but not uncomfortable by any means--great mood starter. Great spot to grab some good food and then get on your way!

Thai Noodle Salad - NEW
Karen V.

Wow!! Was craving an asian bowl and came across this amazing spot the food is 10/10 i ordered the thai noodle salad with Korean fried chicken and fell in love the ingredients taste so fresh the sauce is perfect the chicken was just so crispy and delicious it went perfect together, looking forward to trying more offthe menu

Ube Horchata
Zach O.

Ube Horchata. Need I say more? Horchata is one of my favorite drinks and ube is one of my favorite flavors, so combining these flavors is the perfect marriage. Granted I have hardcore commitment issues so I may not know what I'm talking about. But in all seriousness, this drink is absolutely worth the stop. The ube flavor was a bit stronger compared to the Horchata, but it was still super good. I will absolutely stop by again the next time I'm in NYC!

The food was great! This is a "see and be seen" type of place. The nightclub-like, velvet rope-type atmosphere and service, however, are a turn-off for us. It is a very loud place, but we were lucky enough to get the most quiet seating, which is not an intimate quiet, but we could talk. (We know we had the quietest spot as Lori walked around the whole place.) The service was ok. It took some time to get water and cocktails, but they eventually arrived, and then food came out quickly. Lori's favorites were the two appetizers. I enjoyed everything equally. Here's what we had - Oxtail Dumplings - sweet soy, green apple, jalapeño. These were rich, melt-in-your-mouth savory oxtail with sweet-savory soy, crisp green apple freshness, and a mild jalapeño kick. General Tso's Dumplings - chicken, hot & sour broth. These were good, but I would have liked more spice. Lori said they were spicy enough. Lobster Mapo Tofu - minced beef, lobster, Sichuan chili sauce. They did a good job on this one. I was pleasantly surprised to find a hint of actual Sichuan peppercorns, but then again, this is NYC. Duck Fried Rice - crispy rice & scallion. The rice had some really good crispy bits, and chewy pieces for great texture. The duck was surprisingly shredded, and delicious. I wish there was a little more of it.

We walked in without reservation but Patrina was able to accommodate us and personally escort us to the table to be sure we are seated comfortably. Our wait staff Miles was very friendly and kind, attention to details. We wanted to start of with some white wines but could not decide which one, he gave us some recommendation and introduced the wine sommelier- Joe who is very knowledgeable and professional. We really enjoyed the wines he recommended and it paired beautifully with the seafood we ordered. The oyster and uni cold starter was a wonderful kickoff, and they surprised us with a compliment starter which was really refreshing! It's thine sliced salmon sashimi dressed lightly with yuzu and sesame oil. It's delicious and it's free who doesn't like that! We had chicken wings as hot appetizers, it was done just right!

What started as a quick break turned into one of our favorite moments of the afternoon. We ended up chatting with the bartender for quite a while, swapping recommendations for speakeasies and cocktail bars around the city. It's always refreshing to meet someone who's genuinely passionate about their craft and happy to share local favorites. The cocktails were excellent, and the conversation made the experience even better. This wasn't actually our first visit--we celebrated my birthday here about three years ago, and I still remember how impressed we were with both the food and its presentation. It was nice to return and be reminded why we enjoyed it so much. We also learned that 53 has opened a speakeasy downstairs that's open on select weeknights and features live jazz. Needless to say, that's already on our list for our next trip to the city. Whether you're stopping in for a full dinner or just a well-made cocktail and a break from the Midtown bustle, 53 is well worth a visit.

Tasted good, but to me it wasn't so mind-blowing where I felt like it something I could only find at this specific restaurant. We also tried the berkshire pork and chive potstickers but they were too burnt on some sides for my liking. The oyster mushroom rice roll noodles were hit or miss depending on the bite, some bites were too salty and some were just right. The tiger shrimp with candied walnuts were good, but it just felt like such a small portion for the amount we got. I could argue that for most of the dishes honestly, however I am torn about this being a fair critique because you could argue that it's kinda racist to be like Chinese food should be cheap, so in some ways it's almost a form of protest to charge these prices for each dish, in which case I say hell yeah stick it to the man! Luckily my friend had treated me to my meal here so I wasn't upset by the bill, but I probably would have felt maybe a little like it wasn't worth it if I had to use my own money to pay for it. Overall though, great location with lots of dessert options in the area, and great service. My friend had just come from the airport and the staff checked her luggage somewhere else so it wouldn't take up so much room in the restaurant.
