I came here maybe 5-6 years ago when they first opened, mainly to try their famous "flying…read morenoodles," which were such a trend back then. Honestly, everything was just okay--nothing really stood out to me--so we never came back. Over the years, though, I kept hearing friends talk about this place and say it was one of their favorite Chinese restaurants. I was still not convinced... and then my husband started hearing the same thing from more and more people. So, here I am, finally giving them another try! And WOW... the menu has changed and expanded so much since the last time I was here. There are so many more options now, and everything we ordered was flavorful and tasty. The portions are HUGE, and you can definitely tell they don't skimp on the ingredients, produce, or seasoning. We ordered the salted egg chicken wings and the stir-fried ong choy--both were really good! The drinks were also tasty, although they were a little not sweet enough for me, But I'd definitely order one again when I'm feeling healthier. Where have I been all these years?! ‍ This place has officially become one of my favorite spots for Chinese food. Sometimes you really do have to give a place a second chance!

I've regularly visited Marugame at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, and this location was great if…read morenot better! I got kake udon and added 2 shrimp tempura, my usual order. Everything tasted consistent, which I was happy about. This place has a lot more seating available compared to South Coast Plaza, and there wasn't much of a wait (although we did go early at around 4:30 pm). Service was quick as always, and when I went to return my tray to the bins, one of the staff stepped in and offered to take my tray for me. Overall, this was a great dinner to have on our rainy last day in Oahu.

People come in and out constantly We got the #1 and #2 and some tempera on the side. The noodles are surprisingly filling just for a regular bowl that we barely finished our tempera. The chicken katsu is huge that it should've been the only fried addition we got but of course we got so much more. And the tempura sauce comes warm. Absolutely will come again

My friend has been raving about this noodle spot and even though she had it for lunch, when I asked…read moreher if she wanted to go here for dinner she was still in! It's street parking only on King Street but if you're lucky like us you can snag a metered parking spot right outside. It's a QR code menu and you order from your phone. I love a physical menu just as much as the next person, but with all the customizations you can make to the dishes- being able to select them on your phone just makes it so much easier. I went with the classic beef noodle soup, with a thick noodle. There was multiple different noodles to choose from but I think that this was the most classic for a beef noodle soup. The broth was really rich and clean (not spicy) and I loved the texture of the noodles. My friend ordered the dry mix noodle with pork and chickpeas in mixed sauce. She got it a regular spicy and it was just above my threshold for spice but so good. The texture of the chickpeas when it was mixed in made it creamy and so unique. Next time I'm going to try the dry noodle with mashed potatoes and beef.

We've ordered takeout for dinner from here a couple of times! There's usually street parking…read moreavailable along the street near their entrance, so it's not bad in terms of convenience and accessibility. They also seem to have renovated, with a much more spacious and modern interior. We've tried the Boiled Fish and Pickled Cabbage with rice, Wuwei Spicy Beef Noodle, and Fried Noodle (rice noodle). You get to choose what type of noodles you want. The first time, I ordered the Boiled Fish and asked for mild spice, but it was so spicy I could barely finish it and ended up just eating the fish and leaving the rest. Such a shame because I was craving those sour and spicy flavors and wanted to pair the soup with rice, but I definitely wasn't expecting the mild level to be THAT spicy. My bf, on the other hand, can handle really spicy food and ordered the spicy level for his beef noodles, but his wasn't that spicy at all. We wondered if the spice levels got mixed up, but I've seen other reviews mentioning that even the mild level for the Boiled Fish is really spicy, so maybe that's just how it is... The boiled fish soup was also oilier than what I've had elsewhere. For the Wuwei Spicy Beef Noodle, since we ordered takeout, the beef came separately with its own marinade. I wouldn't recommend pouring the marinade into the noodle soup because it completely overpowers the original spicy broth. The beef itself was perfectly tender, though! The Fried Rice Noodle was really good, and we had no complaints! It also came in a HUGE portion that was plenty for the two of us. Both times, I was craving Szechuan flavors and rice noodle dishes, and these definitely hit the spot! I wouldn't say I'm in love with everything we tried, but overall, the food was really good and worth satisfying those cravings.

Ward Centre closed down along with multiple businesses…read more Before they closed their doors, I ate at Mian & Bao. My friend and I ordered their fried chicken cutlet, beef pancake rolls, Chengdu dan dan noodles, signature beef fried rice, pan fried pork buns, and pan fried chicken dumplings. The fried chicken cutlet was okay. The side of mayo and sweet chili helped but it was too dry. It would have been better if the chicken cutlet was juicy. The Chengdu Dan Dan noodles which had the ground beef, green onions and spice sauce in the bottom. Mixing this dish before eating was pretty good. The spice made this simple noodles dish, better. My favorites were the beef pancake rolls, and pan fried pork buns. The beef pancake rolls were sliced beef with cucumbers rolled up in a thin wrap. I liked how crispy the wraps were. They were thick and great as a sharing appetizer. The pan fried pork buns weren't full of soup-goodness but it was still fire. The crispy sides from the pan and the great pork flavor. So, good. The service was very nice and refilled our waters. Sad that they had to close down but they were be merging with Chengdu Taste in July.

Wife and I had a late lunch at Mian & Bao…read more Service was fast with no frills. We were seated quickly and ordered via app at the table. We enjoyed shrimp long bao and the fried chicken cutlets with house made mayo. I was surprised that they didn't have steamed rice available on the day but didn't miss it enough to pay up for the shrimp fried rice plate. The bao was served boiling hot and was tasty and soupy. The cutlets were nicely cooked: golden brown and delicious. When I asked to use facilities, I was directed to the bathroom in the strip mall behind the restaurant. Food court vibes. Still I'd come back again if I was in the area for a fast, affordable, tasty meal.

Living on Maui, one of my favorite noodle dishes is chow fun…read more The child phone beef dish here made Maui chow look like dog poop. My girlfriend ordered the Singapore bitter melon doodle dish, and it was crazy fantastic. The melon was bitter...It was an odd flavor... But new to my pallete. Once I added hoisin sauce, it took it to the next level. I don't think I could go here every week, because the flavors would probably blend together... But once a month, 100% I am hitting this place. If you're in the area, you need to make it a point to come here. Service was on point.

I had lunch here with my mom and husband on a Saturday around 1:30pm. The restaurant was packed with a waitlist. We put our names on the list and waited about 15 minutes to be seated. My husband got the beef chow fun $14.50. My mom and I both got the wonton mein $12.99 each. We shared the cheung fun $8.50 and I got the soy milk $5 made in house. I wanted to get the half roast duck $28, but it was sold out. The cheung fun was good. It came with sesame seeds on top. They brought over the peanut sauce. When I asked for the sweet sauce they pointed to the hoisin sauce on the table. It's not the same, but it'll do. If anyone knows a place that serves real sweet sauce with cheung fun, please let me know. I tried my hubby's beef chow fun and it was excellent. It had good wok hei and the beef was tender. The wontons were meh. I haven't had wontons that bad in a while. They were mushy and contained a small piece of shrimp. My mom agreed that the wontons weren't good that day. However, she had wontons there before and they were good. I loved the skinny Hong Kong noodles that came with the wontons. If you're Chinese like me, then you'd know to eat it with the red vinegar. Also, try the house-made soy milk if you get the chance. It was yummy. My mom used to make it, but it takes a lot of work.

It is very uncommon for someone to tell me not to order more food, but that's because the person…read morewho probably owns this place isn't common... he's an artist. He cares about the food he serves and thinks about how the food will taste, not just while you're eating, but also if you plan to take food home. I ordered the cold vegetable noodles and pork buns. He told me not to order the pork buns because the noodles are huge. I'll try to stuff myself and I won't enjoy the food, "I want you to enjoy" he said. He also asked how much spiciness I preferred and at first I said none, but he suggested I add at least a little spice because of the way it mixes with the food and brings out the flavor. Later I overheard him talking to a group of young adults about how he doesn't serve a particular type of food because the quality and the texture of the meat wasn't good enough. When I was done with my noodles, I decided to order the buns and take it home to eat later. He said, "Oh no... if you take it home and put it in the refrigerator... it will become dry and you won't enjoy it." That's the first time I've ever heard of someone refusing money because he's worried about me enjoying my meal and the taste of his food. Most people would just take the money... but to him... how the food tastes will leave a lasting impression on him. With all that... how was the cold vegetable noodles? Damn good! I said to him it was "perfect". He was right. It was big. I was tempted to take half of it home, but I thought about how it would taste differently if I put it in the fridge. So... I stuffed myself and splattered the peanut sauce on my clean office shirt. Taking my wife there because I want her to experience food from someone who takes pride in what they do.

We were told that the first batch would be served about 11 a.m. so we quickly put our order in. The first thing that caught my attention, was the savory aroma of their 5-spice ground pork being cooked. You can add this as a topping to the noodle dish. The second thing that caught my attention, was the labor of love going in to each order of fresh pulled noodles. You can watch him stretch the dough ball and slap it on the counter before he boils each batch with careful preparation. The third thing that caught my attention, was their adorable mother, helping to slice the cucumbers and top each dish with crushed iso peanuts. Do not forget to order the side of pickled bittermelon....so good!! From beginning to end, this was an incredible experience of all my senses! To see and hear them at work and then to taste the delicious sesame sauce on the fresh pulled noodles....WOW! The soft noodles, the crisp bittermelon, and the savory sauce....super delish! Seriously, go early to place your order. The wait is totally worth it :) Will come back next time to try other menu items.

Shima Dreams of Noodles is a pop-up, located at Fishcake -…read more This place supposedly has a huge following, and people anticipate for the changing menu of various noodle dishes. When we went, the menu focused on udon: +Hot Yamakake Udon with Quail Egg (a special) +Cold Yamakake Udon (a special) +Hot Udon +Cold Udon The special udon dishes are servied with tororo (grated mountain yam), housemade tsukudani (seaweed braised in a sweet Japanese sauce), crispy nori, green onions, and an option to add wasabi. We went for both the hot and cold udon specials - I think it was a consensus that we would have liked to have more noodles in the dish. This is definitely a sweeter dish, with the tororo and the tsukudani. The place already had a long line, and the best way to enjoy would be to dine-in. Note that if you do order a carry-out, the quail egg would not be included. +ordering online is available +changing menu of noodle dishes +popup at Fishcake

I LOVE ramen, but I don't consume land animals and most broth is made with pork or beef--OR is it?!…read moreNoods Ramen offers a wide selection of vegan ramen. This makes my animal-loving heart happy and my pescatarian palate scream with delight! Nothing is missing from their vegan ramen, in fact, I'd argue that the taste is more distinct and delicate than your typical pork and beef broths. Either way, I can NOT get ENOUGH. I wanted to save this review until I tried all of their vegan menu options. But, that was biting off more than I could chew, literally. Getting through a dozen ramen bowls is going to take me a bit more time and appetite. In the meantime, I'm sharing this much overdue oratory ovation. Here are my comments on the six different vegan ramen I've slurped down so far. All were excellent, exceptional even, each offering different flavor profiles that were quite unique. Seriously, there is something for every mood at Noods! The noodles have a nice bite to them, too. Listed in chronologically-consumed order rather than preference (because at this point I don't have a favorite): Yuzu Shio--light and bright, clear and crisp Truffle Shoyu--full of umami, deep and earthy Shoyu Curry--nostalgic, rich, with a hint of sweetness Spicy Thai Curry--exotic, spicy, complex Tan Tan Men--nutty, creamy, with a touch of heat Creamy Garlic Shoyu--light and slightly savory Vegan Dumpling Soup--(tried takeout at a potluck), you can choose the broth you want, ANY broth! This one was the Spicy Thai Curry. The dumplings withstood the take out container, travel, and wait. And, it was delicious. It must be absolutely fire eaten fresh. Speaking of dumplings, Noods also offers vegan sides which include their vegan kimchi dumplings, mushroom bao, corn tempura, and vegan fried rice. I always get the kimchi dumplings but have tried the bao and tempura. The bao was soft and savory and the tempura was sweet and crunchy. And, my meat-eating hubby can have all the pork and beef broth ramen with pork filled gyoza, too. We very much enjoyed the shrimp dynamite together. I absolutely adore having so many choices. Everyone leaves happy, satisfied, but wanting MORE! Noods, also has a frequent-eater incentive program and you can earn a free ramen bowl once your card is filled. Not that we needed more motivation! They also have a great happy hour between 5 and 6 pm -- $3 off ramen bowls and select appetizers. Their prices are already super reasonable, so happy hour is a slurp-worthy steal! The restaurant has a cool vibe with black walls and chalk-inspired art. Tables and chairs have an Asian aesthetic. It's giving ramen-stall. They can accommodate a deuce to larger parties comfortably. And service is always friendly, professional, and efficient. The workers seem proud of their product, and they should be! Parking is available in the paid lot behind the restaurant and on the street. We never have a problem finding a spot. And a short walk through the Kaimuki area filled with interesting shops and restaurants is worth the effort. Doesn't matter if you're vegan or not, this place is a must-try. And with so many different options, you can be like me and try, try, try, try again!
