I was in town for a concert at TD Coliseum and had heard this ramen spot was closing at the end of…read moreJuly, so I knew I had to try it before it was gone. I ended up sitting at the bar, but probably should've waited for a regular table. The bar seats only about four people and feels a bit cramped. It's also farther from the entrance, so there wasn't much ventilation. Eating a bowl of ramen on a hot summer day made it feel especially warm. The ramen was delicious! The ramen egg is an extra add-on. It wasn't quite as jammy as I personally prefer, but it was still a great addition to the bowl. The location is another plus. It's an easy walk to TD Coliseum and the surrounding area is lively, with lots of other bustling businesses. A great spot to grab a meal before a concert!

On account of some personal food allergies, I substitute the noodles for rice on the side and they are very good about accommodating me, thank you. In addition to the traditional animal based broths, I have also had the vegetarian broth which has a milky appearance and a mushroom flavour in which has a nice assortment of veggies. Will definitely have that again. You'll find on the middle page bottom of the menu, a level 3 hotness (12 chilies) dish. That is not for the faint of heart. Perhaps work your way up to that, definitely try 2 before 3. At peak times, be prepared to write your name on a sheet and wait until some seats open up.

I got the pear ginger cocktail which was refreshing and pretty good size - lasted throughout our meal. We got 4 appetizers for two of us to share: sushi tacos, fried chicken, lobster shumai and beef bao. Sushi tacos were my favorite for sure. I love ahi tuna and the texture and spice were perfection. The flavor of the KFC Fried chicken was really tasty as well. We got a little messy and had to wash our hands several times, but overall great experience. Service was excellent. Ambiance was nice. We'll definitely be back to try more things.

It's not often that we find East Asian food in this area, so we had high hopes considering the reviews. Although our food tasted and looked great, the prices seemed a bit too high for the portion size and ingredients. I could see these prices at a fine dining establishment, but the ambiance felt more of a typical local bar/restaurant than fine dining. Perhaps we're too used to the plethora of East Asian food options in the GTA. I will say that the use of Cumbrae's meat stood out in the poutine (super tender!), as well as the rich broth in the shumai.

Once upon a time my husband and I found ourselves at this restaurant pre-pandemic. We remembered…read moreloving the food and cool pet lovers decor with large portraits of dogs and cats on the walls of the restaurant - but couldn't recall the restaurant name. We were so happy to rediscover it through DoorDash delivery! We got 2 delicious ramen dishes. My husband ordered the pork with wide noodles and we both really enjoyed it! The flavor was bright, and spicy and the textures of the potatoes and veggies was so enjoyable. I got the brisket which was also delicious, but the pork was pretty special. We tried a few appetizers - edamame, garlicky spicy cucumbers with sesame and chicken wings which were delicious. We also got the buns and did not care for them - which I had forgotten we must have ordered the same before once I saw them. Does not affect the 5 star score - the ramens and other appetizers were 10/10. Can't wait to try more! I love that you can order different widths of noodles from capillary super thin - extra wide and 6 different options in between! They also have rice noodle dishes. Amazing menu + ramen!

We've been to this restaurant a couple of times and both have been great experiences!…read more The restaurant is fairly spacious and very clean, bright and airy. The service is pretty good although could be a little more attentive. We found it a bit difficult to catch the waiter/waitress's attention when we needed to ask for a container to take home our leftovers on both occasions we visited. The food is absolutely delicious. It's similar fare to other 'noodle houses' we often go to, but instead of the side dishes being 'on the side' here, they're already in the soup when you get it. We have no problem with that as we always use all of the side dishes anyway. The broth here is always really delicious. We've tried the original broth, spicy and pickled. All are very good. We have only tried the rice noodles, not the ramen or hand-pulled. But we would highly recommend all the rice noodle dishes. The soups are really packed with veggies, noodles and lots of 'add ins' so it makes for an inexpensive, delicious meal. We will definitely keep coming back!

There is a serious cat theme happening with the decor inside, so if you are into cats you are in for a treat. Food wise there are not many options - it's either ramen or hot pot. We chose ramen with 4 or 5 different broth options. I got the spicy miso broth which was pretty good flavor wise. The noodles were ok, and I was very surprised to see lettuce as one of the main vegetables. My ramen came with corn, a piece of seaweed, and an egg. My husband's non spicy ramen was good too. We ordered the lamb and shrimp skewers to start. The lamb was good but quite gristly. The shrimp was flavored well but hard to eat and very messy. Overall it was good, and I'd like to try the hot pot next time.

Hand pulled noodles are my new thing so Noodle Me has been on my to-try list. We started with…read moreseaweed salad and a chili potato salad. I preferred the seaweed, which was pretty delicious actually. We also ordered the beef brisket noodle soup, a stir fry noodle dish with pork, and buns. The soup was delicious - great flavor, noodles were amazing as expected. The brisket was tasty but difficult to eat because you had to chew for a long long time, long enough to swallow, if that makes sense. I just let my husband eat all of the beef after my one bite. The pork dish was good too but the flavors didn't wow me. Maybe I should have ordered something spicier - although adding the chili spice helped a lot. The soup buns (5 buns/order) were amazing - super hot (temperature wise) and very tasty. We were almost too full to finish them. All ingredients seemed super fresh. Always cool to see the noodles being made - just be prepared for loud noises, especially if you have your back turned away from the counter. I guess other hand pulled noodle places I've been to there's some sort of separation or glassed in area to see them being pulled, but when the dough gets slammed onto the counter it's quite loud. I would bet each batch has at least 3 slams? I'm sure it's to get the air pockets out and is necessary - I just wonder if there's a sound barrier type option or maybe some funny sign warning or heads up from the waitstaff? We can't wait to try something else from Noodle Me!

What a smart marketing catch to grab those noodling craving urges…read more Well, doing a bit of searching for dinner and found Noodle Me. Let's get in to ... first, off currently Aug 2019, there is construction on the roads around the strip that Noodle Me is within, so it took us a while just to get in to the parking lot. Then we noticed there isn't a whole lot of parking. Maybe some across the street. But keep that in mind if you are driving over. Once we got in, the place is a nice small place. Does have lots of sitting, but slightly packed to fill more people. The staff was very friendly and the menu had nice photos for some of their meals to entice the new comers. So myself, my wife and my sister in law went in new. Ordered the wonton soup, combo lo-mein and their steam buns (thought they were dumplings). - The Wonton soup brother was very good. Noodles, not really anything to overly rave about and wontons were plenty. So an overall good dish. - The Combo Lo-Mein, was quite good. Enjoyed the noodles and a good variety of meat and vegetables. The odd part, wasn't exactly mixed up. Noodles on one side, veggies on a another side and meat. A bit of work to mix it all. So that assumes that all of it was not fully cooked together, which I feel helps to get more of the flavour across all of the ingredients, but to each their own. - and the Steam Buns, those were quite good. The dough was pretty thick for the small appetizers But a good overall. I will say the overall flavour is good and wouldn't hesitate to visit again if I'm in the area, but wouldn't drive across the city for it.

Recently in the area helping my daughter move into Mac U and found this nearby restaurant for…read morelunch. After reading some reviews, I almost changed my mind from coming. We were quite impressed with the food here...it's actually very authentic northern style Chinese food. If you are not familiar with the food in this region, I can see why some people had negative comments. My advice to you if you are not familiar with some of their menu items, order the fried rice/noodles and fried dumplings and not items like chicken with ginger & scallion sauce. The latter dish is actually a popular Chinese chicken dish that is not commonly offered in Chinese westernized restaurants. I did see a photo of this dish on google soaking in oil which doesn't look too appealing so I would request for the ginger onion oil sauce on the side (maybe it's prepared in Northern style?). I will definitely try it on my next visit. We got the shrimp fried rice and beef brisket udon in beef bone soup. Both dishes were good and I was surprised that there were quite a few large shrimps in the rice. The soup base was a bit bland but the beef brisket was tender and flavourful. Highly recommend this dish if you are looking for comfort food. Make sure you ask for their chilli sauce which is great for the beef brisket! My favourite dish was #519 fried tofu...this was perfectly done and I requested the sauce to be on the side. The best way to eat fried tofu is to dip the hot crispy tofu with a bit of the sauce! The pan fried dumplings were only okay but they did serve it well with vinegar sauce! I will definitely be coming back on my visits to MAC U.
