Nudo House in Creve Coeur absolutely lives up to the hype, especially if you are hunting for a stellar vegetarian bowl. I dropped in on a Saturday evening and ordered the **Shroomed Up** ramen, and it was a ramen masterclass in a bowl. The broth managed to be incredibly rich and deeply savory-sweet all at once, without ever feeling heavy. It was loaded with thick, substantial slabs of mushrooms, tender-cooked bok choy, and the noodles were the star of the show--thick and perfectly cooked to that ideal sweet spot where they aren't too chewy but have zero mushiness. Even with a line stretching out the door when we arrived, the wait wasn't tedious, and we reached the counter reasonably fast. The ordering process is standard counter service, but the staff member who took our order was incredibly nice, polite, and helpful, practically predicting my questions as I was looking over the menu. The same employee even brought our bowls out to us. The space was definitely crowded for a weekend night, but the seat-yourself setup worked out perfectly for the two of us; we still had three tables to choose from. The interior has a great energy with fun, East-Asian and Japanese-themed decor lining the walls. The Breakdown Food Quality: 5+/5 + Service: 4/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Vibe: 4/5 Quality/Value: 4/5 **Pro Tip:** Don't let a Saturday evening line out the door scare you off! The counter service team moves people through the queue efficiently, and if you are dining in a small group of two, the table turnover is quick enough that you'll still easily find a spot to sit down. read more

BOTTOM LINE: I Love this place as does my family much much better broth in Pho than anywhere I've been. My wife and I finally had a chance to come to Nudo near Creve Coeur. I've known qui for decades and when the original Mi Lee was on Delmar. I heard he opened a new places. Well it's just fantastic Pho and does NOT need to be "doctored." Staff and friendly and fast and bring your food to you. Seems ALL ways busy. Thursday is $10 Pho(I love the deluxe so it's basically 1/2 $). We've already come back numerous times. This is now our go to for Pho!! read more

Love how big this location is. Everyone was nice helped explain the menu. Plenty of natural light and seating indoors and out. Love the authentic drink options. Didn't like the ramen tasted like instant ramen noodles. I unfortunately wouldn't recommend. read more

I have been craving 3-1-Pho Chicken with Shredded Chicken Breast for a while. If you do not like spicy, TELL them and they'll take the kick out. The service was clean, fast and efficient. I received my order quickly. The ambiance at lunch was calm and welcoming. 100/100 no notes. So crazy good. Now I'll be craving this forever. read more

Nudo House STL - 3-1-Pho Shredded Chicken Breast - Ramen Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

10/10 would recommend. If you like Ramen, and Phó, then you definitely need to try this place. I visited their Delmar location previously, and didn't know this location in Creve Coeur existed. So glad to see one closer to me. There's plenty of parking outside as it sits on the same lot as a few other businesses and restaurant. The lobby area where you place your order is very small, so it would help if you know what you're ordering before entering. They have plenty of seats inside.Once you place your order, find a seat and your food will be brought to you. I ordered the Hebrew Hammer Ramen. Very savory and flavorful. I asked for mine to be made spicy. They made it perfectly. Service is excellent, staff are friendly, very clean interior. No complaints! read more

Nudo is, without question, the absolute pinnacle of ramen dining in St. Louis. In all the time I've spent searching for great ramen throughout the area, nothing--and I truly mean nothing--has come even remotely close to what Nudo consistently delivers. Their craftsmanship, depth of flavor, and attention to detail set a standard that other ramen shops simply cannot match. My all‑time favorite dish, the Curry‑Up Ramen with Chicken Tempura, is the perfect example of why this place stands so far above the rest. Every single sip of that beautifully balanced curry broth stimulates my senses in the most satisfying way imaginable. The flavors don't simply blend together--they bloom. They open up across the palate with richness, warmth, and that unmistakable Nudo signature depth. It's the kind of broth that makes you pause, appreciate, and then dive right back in for another sip. The noodles are another highlight. Cooked with meticulous precision, they strike the ideal balance between firmness and chew. They never arrive soggy or overdone; instead, they maintain that perfect, slightly springy texture that great ramen noodles should have. Nudo clearly takes pride in this detail, and it shows in every bowl. Then there's the egg--an element many ramen shops claim to master, yet very few truly do. At Nudo, the ramen egg is nothing short of spectacular. The soft center, the perfect seasoning, the melt‑in‑your‑mouth texture--it all feels almost impossibly consistent. Every time I taste it, I'm reminded of how seriously they take even the smallest components of their dishes. The broth itself is enhanced with those delightful bits of peanuts, adding not only flavor but also texture. It creates a more layered eating experience that keeps each spoonful interesting and satisfying. And the chicken tempura? That alone could be a meal. Perfectly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, it delivers a bite so good it makes me close my eyes for a moment just to savor it fully. It's the kind of flavor that makes you appreciate food in a deeper way. This is, without hesitation, our favorite ramen place in St. Louis. No other restaurant even comes close to providing this level of satisfaction, consistency, and culinary excellence. Nudo has truly set itself apart as the gold standard. The service model is simple, efficient, and straightforward. You begin by lining up at the front counter to place your order. After paying, you seat yourself and wait for your ramen to be delivered directly to your table. When your food arrives, it comes neatly presented with chopsticks and utensils, ready for you to dive in. Water and additional seasonings are available for self‑service along the side, and napkins are placed conveniently on each table. It's a system that keeps the atmosphere relaxed while allowing the food to take center stage. From the moment you step through the door, the aroma of simmering broth fills the air and immediately puts you in the mindset to enjoy an incredible meal. The ambiance is warm, inviting, and perfectly suited to the comforting, soul‑warming nature of ramen. The décor on the walls complements the dining experience and adds to the overall charm of the space. We never get tired of coming back here. Each visit feels just as exciting and satisfying as the first, and every bowl reminds us why Nudo is truly something special. Thank you, Nudo, for consistently delivering the best ramen in STL--hands down. read more

Back for Ramen! This is my go-to place for Ramen and the staff is quick and friendly, too. Placed my order at the register as you walk in. I went with the Classic Nudo which I haven't had in a while and an order of Crab Rangoon. The Crab Rangoon came out first and I thought they were the best I have had in a while. They weren't as sweet as I remember them being and that was a good thing! Glad I ordered them. After going with the nduja bomb for so long, the classic was a little too tame for me, it was really good but I should have known I would miss the kick. I am not sure I have ever tried the chili oil they stock with their condiments by the drink station, but I will not miss out on it in the future! Yum, smoky with a kick, I took some home and added to my leftover classic. So good! The space is always bright and clean and I love the bathrooms. The wall tile and that cute, tiny sink. Service is always on point and this time was no different. Another great visit. read more

You walk in and the smell is AMAZING! I loved my first experience at Nudo House, I can see why it's packed to the brim. My friends and I actually ended up taking our food to go because there were no tables, but they packaged everything nicely and it travelled so well. My classic ramen was delicious, with the star of the show being the tea egg. I could eat a dozen of those. I also got the crab rangoon which were pretty good. Can't wait to come back for excellent ramen! And I need to try a strawberry sando next time :) read more

Nudo House STL - Classic Nudo Ramen (to go, without broth added yet) - Ramen Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Quick and delicious! I got the classic nudo ramen (tonkotsu broth with chasu and black garlic) as takeout and was very happy with my order! They separated the noodles and the broth in different containers (and wrapped the soup one in a plastic bag to prevent leaking) which I really appreciated! The noodles were perfectly chewy, and thee egg was beautiful and soaked up all the flavor of the broth! (Without being too salty). The chasu was delicious as well. The portion size was also great! I was able to split this over multiple meals. In the past I've also tried the Hebrews hammer ramen (that one is shoyu based so is saltier)--I prefer the classic! Would highly recommend Nudo house! read more

Spring roll, fried tofu, mushroom ramen - all excellent! Great portions (except spring roll, which doesn't make sense, its the least expensive thing to make, there should be 2 to an order not 1). Fast & friendly service, good beer cooler options (terrible, awful, gross off-brand soda fountain choices). Place was crowded and loud at 6:15pm on a Monday. read more

It's limited. Limited menu, limited seating. There's not too much to say about this place, really. You order at the counter at the entrance, pay, sit and they bring you your food. I must admit it came quicker than I would have thought. I can't comment on anything other than the spring rolls. That's all I had when we visited. They were fresh and quite good. The accompanying dip/sauce was quite nice as well. My table mate had the mushroom bowl/pho. She quite enjoyed it. The food is what is bumping this review up to a three. The atmosphere and interior is what is keeping it down to a three only. There are enough interior pictures here, have a look and make up your own mind. It's just not a relaxing place to sit and relax while you eat. Just my opinion of course. Would I go back? I might if someone wanted to specifically go but I don't think I'd go on my own. Let me know what you think. read more

Great food and helpful workers. Loved the crab rangoon! No rush service with a smile.

Dreary, rainy fall day needs soup, pho sure! Cute decor on the walls plus tv's with calm visuals like waterfalls, basic carryout/eat-in style seating. Order at counter and food is brought out to you. Self serve beverages. I ordered beef pho, which was labeled gluten free. Big, aromatic brothy bowl with a decent amount of sliced steak and rice noodles came to my table with a platter of usual herbs and mix ins. Had to leave table and request hot sauces. Maybe you can request when ordering but i didn't see anything indicating either way. Broth was flavorful and steak tender. Couldn't finish it and there are to-go cartons available. read more

I got the Classic Nudo Ramen, with pork belly. It was tremendously good. I had enough broth to put with my pho noodles. ( I couldn't decide which one to take). The service was very quick, I ordered it to go. So I didn't get a chance to sit and eat, but I would definitely be going back! It was very good and for the cold days to come very fulfilling! read more

This was my second visit. My cousin wanted to try Pho and this was the perfect place. You order when you walk in. The cashier was pleasant and helpful. It's a clean and neat space. We arrived about 5:30 and were 1 of 3 other tables dining in. It quickly picked up after us. We both ordered chicken pho. I added 2 veggie spring rolls and fried chicken gyoza. My cousin added crab rangoon. Our food arrived pretty quickly. I took a trip to the sauce station to enhance our pho experience. As I remembered, the food did not disappoint. Flavor party in your mouth while warming your soul! I did try the alcohol slushie. It was a mango tropical drink. It was on the sweeter side. Not for me. **I visited the Delmar Location. I don't see a page for them.** read more

First time visiting and I have to be real... I wasn't impressed. The greeting felt dry and uninviting. The lady at the counter waited for me to order but never acknowledged me with a simple, "I'll be with you in a moment," which immediately made me feel a way....I ordered the Shroom Out. Once I got to my car and opened the bag, I was disappointed in the packaging. The bowl of noodles with mushrooms felt cold, like it had been sitting in the refrigerator, so not freshly made, The broth was warm... but barely temperature matters, especially when you're expecting something comforting and fresh and hot. Now I will say this, the Shroom Out itself was actually very delicious, the flavor was there. No complaints about the taste at all. But good flavor can't fully make up for cold food and lack of service....Customer service just wasn't up to par for me. That said, check it out for yourself and form your own opinion. I might give it a try at another location if available. read more

First visit and it lived up to the Mai Lee reputation. I drove up and saw a line out the door, probably would have gone somewhere else if I hadn't been meeting a friend. Glad I stuck around. It's a quick serve place so the menu is short enough you can make a decision fairly quickly which is good cause you pay as you order when you come in and the line goes outside with just half a dozen or so people waiting to order. There seem to be a lot of folks getting carry out for offices. I ordered egg rolls and the beef pho. The pho broth was so deeply flavored and the fresh ingredients, noodles and beef came together for a perfect meal. One note, they call names and bring things out rather than giving a number or something. I wasn't the only one sure on that LOL. The service is fast and there are surprisingly a lot of seating as it goes back so far. I will be back for sure. read more

Visiting the area for work, jumped on Yelp like I normally do to find places that are close that aren't just boring. Happen to come across this little spot and decided why not? I love some ramen . So first of all this is not a very big place but it's big enough to enjoy with your friends and some family if you can get there and get the big tables. But you can also order ahead and get your stuff to go. The service is great You ordered the front counter you go find a seat and they bring you your food. I ordered kimchi appetizer and I ordered The Curry for my main meal. Both which came out extremely fast and is hungry as I was I was very pleased with this. So let's talk about the food now. The kimchi was a pleasant change from normal kimchi. Not a spicy as Korean kimchi and also appear to be a little sweeter but also think they put the little radishes in their kimchi. It doesn't take away from the taste it still has that spunky bite but with a touch of sweetness. I enjoyed it very much. As for the curry it was delicious. Pack full of flavor and a proper egg. also ordered mine with pork which comes out separately and a dish and it was like tempura pork and oh my lawd was it good. I'm going to say is some of these big restaurants that claim to serve good ramen better watch out. Because this place will put you out of business. I rather have a small place like this then spend money at a big place that can't seem to nail the flavors down. So if you're in the area like I was give it a shot. read more

We stopped at Nudo House in Creve Coeur last night for my first visit. I've never been out Ramen before, but was told this was good. I asked for a recommendation when I ordered and was told that I should try the o'miso spicy. It was delicious! Slightly, but not overly spicy. It was great on a cold night. You order at the counter and they being the food to your table. read more

This was a busy place. There were multiple carry out bags on a table. The noise level was not too bad. My pho was the beef deluxe and my spouse had the regular beef. He enjoyed his. Mine was good but the broth was thin. The meat and noodles were tasty, but the broth was thin. They have many dishes that they serve. There are staff who bring you food and carry out containers. I do recommend this restaurant. read more

Great experience at Nudo House! It's a noodle spot with really tasty food and incredibly kind staff. My husband ordered the pho noodle soup and I got the pho banh mi sandwich with dipping broth -- both were delicious. We also got some papaya salad, which was refreshing.

Highly recommend, and we'd definitely go back. read more

Nudo never fails when it comes to taking your order quickly, and bringing out your food even quicker. The tonkotsu broth ramen is delicious. This time I got the beef pho. The flavor was good, just a little more cilantro dominant than my personal preference. I would say I've definitely had spots with more depth in their broth, but this is still worth a try. The crab rangoon are pretty good here as well. The presentation of their bowls are always spot on! Small place, but everything moves quickly, which I appreciate. read more

I came in for lunch and it was pretty crowded around 1:45 pm. You ordered at the counter and paid before sitting down. I got beef Pho and it was pretty expensive for 1. Around $17. I couldn't find siracha which I usually eat with Pho. The broth tasted just ok and the portion is average. They do have fresh meat though. I didn't like the where I was sitting since a lot of people walked by and could bump into me. read more

Great spot! If you're craving any type of pho or noodle house than this is the place. The food tasted great and was more than filling.

3.5 stars there is really almost no ramen available in the STL area. i think this is one of those areas you really can't just trust ratings on, because if you actually google it or look it up, you'll see that there are plenty of "ramen" restaurants in the area with a rating of 4 or higher. however i think a lot of this is relative based rating, because in reality they are almost all bad nudo is probably the only non-menya rui ramen shop that is worth eating at. as indicated by the fact that they serve both Pho and Ramen here, you can't expect too much, but both are actually decent. it's not clear to me if you have to pay tip here, since this is yet another restaurant where you order at the front and then someone brings your food to your table, but it's not really wait service. i suppose you can just tip whatever you want overall, manage your expectations coming here given that it is a combo ramen/pho restaurant in STL read more

Great lunch spot! What? I came here for lunch and I got the vegetarian ramen. This is in a vegetable broth. Despite being vegetarian, it has great fragrant and taste. The noodles were good and the broth was great as well. Perfect for lunch and the hot weather! Environment This is located in a plaza so there is plenty of parking outside. The inside can get busy during lunch time. It is like a fast casual spot. You order before you sit and strangely they don't have a number they give you, instead they call your name (it is a good thing that the place is small I guess). Niceness of the staff Very nice staff, she was working 2 registers at one time.. talk about efficiency. I would say she is great for the lunch type of service. We just want to eat and leave.. ha... Dollar With all this inflation... I guess 15$ for lunch is normal these days.. Yes? I would, it is pretty close by and convenient. read more

Love their spring rolls they are the best ever. Always fresh and delicious. Staff is very friendly too.

Within St Louis, Nudo House is a nice, fast-serving noodle soup option. However, the quality falls short of expectations. It is a sister restaurant of Mai Lee. It offers menu choices from green papaya salad, bahn mi, pho and ramen. I visited Nudo House with a group of friends during lunch time. Seating is plentiful and service is fast. The order is fairly easy. I tried spicy miso ramen. It comes with charsiu, half an egg and mustard green. The broth is delicious with a nice kick. I love the texture of the noodles and mustard green as well. The part I dislike is the charsiu. It is very tough and chewy with pretty thick cut. I would want to replace charsiu with other protein instead -- if possible. Regardless of the shortcomings, Nudo House is still a fairly OK place to get a hot bowl of Asian noodles in a freezing day. read more

I honestly get the same thing every time. Pho beef (a classic) and shrimp spring rolls with fish sauce instead of the peanut sauce. This place is so convenient and whenever you want a quick bite to eat for lunch or a get together for dinner, this is your place. You honestly aren't waiting more than 15 minutes for your food, it comes real quick. Pho and spring rolls are yummy and comes with the fixings. Can't wait to try all the other things. It's calm right after work but if you come on a Friday night, it's packed. read more

Nudo is one of my go to ramen spots in the STL area. Once you walk in, you can immediately order at the counter and then go to sit down at a table. They also have a lot of customers come in to pick up their carry out orders. The Spicy Miso Ramen (pictured below) is my go to order for a comfort meal. The sweetness of the miso balances out the chili sauce in the broth and creates such a nice flavor combo. All of the ramen is customizable, and you can add extra ingredients at an additional cost. My favorite appetizer is the Tamarind Fried Chicken, which is super crispy and savory / sweet. The banh mi sandwiches are also yummy options if you don't feel like eating ramen. read more

We came in for dinner, and it was pretty busy around 8pm on Saturday night. It's actually my second time dine in here. I usually ordered to pickup. My favorite is their Nudo Banh Mi and Classic Ramen Nudo. I am always happy with their fast and friendly service. Restaurant is spacious and always clean. I noticed staff here cleaned the table immediately after customer left. I ordered Pho beef deluxe and tamarind fried chicken for the first time, besides my usual order classic nudo. I liked the flavor of tamarind fried chicken. Pho broth wasn't aromatic as I expected, and the meatballs tasted off. It's kinda pricey ($19) for a few pieces of rare flank steak imo. read more
