SUP Noodle Bar is an INSANELY popular pho restaurant located in Irvine known for all you can eat/unlimited noodle refills. Overall, I thought the pho was good, but I do feel like the hype is a little much. Food aside, service was phenomenal and the ambiance was nice. I would not hesitate to come back, but at the same time, I don't think it's worth waiting an hour for. Definitely give it a try if you're in the area and if the wait time is reasonable.

Spring Rolls
Harsimran s.

It's been on my list for a while so when a friend recommended stopping by for lunch to celebrate her birthday, I was excited. It wasn't crazy crowded during lunch like it's Neighbor, but it was definitely crowded. The parking situation is a little excessive in my opinion. The restaurant itself is really nice- low-key similar to all of the kei concept restaurants. I opted for the lunch special pho and my friend ordered the Anthony Bourdain version. Both were solid great options. I love the unlimited noodles for lunch. We also shared some spring rolls which I probably wouldn't get again. I always love a solid pho so will absolutely be back again.

SUP noodle bar has fantastic vietnamese fusion dishes! We stopped by on a busy Saturday afternoon and waited for about 20-30 minutes before being seated. Our server was super kind and attentive throughout our dining experience. Everything on the menu looked so delicious and unique so we ended up ordering a variety of dishes with a couple of standouts. Anthony Bourdain Pho: 5/5 This dish was easily one of the top highlights of our meal! The filet mignon was super tender, and the flat noodles had that perfect chewy, bouncy texture. The northern-style broth also really elevated the dish as it tasted rich, smoky, and was packed with flavor from the wok seared onions and garlic. This is definitely a must-order! Combination Pho Shaken Style: 5/5 The combination pho was super tasty! Similar to the Anthony Bourdain, the shaken style broth brought a nice northern twist to a classic pho order! The regular noodles tasted fresh and soft yet still slightly chewy, and the rib bone was so tender it fell off the bone easily. This is definitely a must order if you prefer traditional style pho. Lomo Saltado with Cajun Garlic Noodles: 4/5 I had some mixed feelings about this dish. The filet mignon cubes weren't as tender as expected and was slightly overcooked, but the dish still had some strong elements. The aji verde sauce paired really well with the crispy fries and was honestly one of the best parts of the dish! The garlic noodles however were a little disappointing. The Cajun seasoning unfortunately overpowered the fragrance of the garlic while somehow still lacking that savory depth. However, overall the lomo saltado itself was still beautifully seasoned with a nice tanginess that cuts through the smoky and umami taste. House Shaken Fries: 5/5 Yet another standout! The thin, crispy fries were drenched in a spicy tartar sauce reminiscent of the spread from in-n out, and it was topped with generous slices of beef belly that added a rich, fatty texture. Topped with caramelized onions, it really added a perfect sweetness to the dish while the sauce along with the cheese tied everything together without being too heavy. We honestly came for the pho but this dish absolutely stole the show. This is a must-order every time. SUP Noodle Bar absolutely lives up to the hype with their creative take on Vietnamese fusion. From the smoky Northern style broths to the bold and flavor-packed fusion dishes, every item feels thoughtfully executed. The lively atmosphere and great service made our dining experience even better. Will definitely be back to explore more of the menu and reorder our favorites!

Anthony Bourdain Pho
Keith W.

My daughter insisted us to take her here for her bday so we had to oblige. This is her fav pho place and i was anxious to see why. The waitlist was already over an hour at 5:15! Def join the waitlist if you're within proximity. We been to most of K-concept's restaurants and the service and ambiance was def on par. Aside from not getting the text on time, things went smoothly. We got seated about 5 mins after we checked in initially. We order the Anthony Bourdain, brisket and short rib. All of them were good but the Anthony Bourdain easily stood above. The garlic flavor def was apparent but not overwhelming. The filet mignon was just right as it was nice and tender. Then to top if off, endless noodles servings made it perfect. Usually I can't drink the soup as it over seasoned but thats not the case here. One of the best pho's ever.

I used to be crazy about this franchise for good reasons. Delicious flavorful clear broth and big ass tender pork rib bones. Also unlimited noodles and free check in herbal drink. Well it's been a few years since I've been back. Or what feels like it. It's still great but I gotta say the pork bones seem a smaller size like it shrunk a little and the broth was not as flavorful as before. The unlimited noodles I asked for were unlimited but the portions they gave was half of what I saw a few years back. It's still great and wonderful but I guess times changed a little and so did the food. Still a reliable factor and pretty delicious.

Pho cappario
Calli Y.

Nephews & niece loves this place! We've been here several times. We've had almost everything from the menu. It's all good actually! They do change the menu so items do change. So can't hurt to ask if you had something you liked from before. I got the newer beef belly dried noodle this time and it was very tasty! I added $1for the spicy lemongrass and it was even better! Highly recommend. So much noodles too so I took half of it home! Only downside is every time when we've asked for more pho noodles since it's bottomless, you end up waiting forever! It's literally just noodles! Not sure why it takes so long!! They really should have more prepared since it's a noodle place? That's my only complaint. They do take Yelp waitlist which is great! SYOY!

Combination Pho
Tiffany C.

I got the combination pho for $20 and it comes with unlimited noodle refills, which is really nice! The broth was rich and tasted like it had been simmered for a long time without being oily. The meat was really tender and the noodles had a good bite to them, not overcooked. The rib bone was a nice bonus too, it slid right off the bone! Service was also great :) The host was really friendly and our server was super attentive. Even though the place was packed, he checked if we wanted noodle refills and brought our check, box, and food really quickly, which was honestly refreshing!! We did wait about 1.5 hours, but understandable since it was really busy. Overall a really tasty and satisfying bowl of pho. Would definitely come back!!!

Anny O.

Pho was good but I think the Buena Park location is better. They are generous with the unlimited noodles and it even comes with a bit of broth. Beef is tender. We came on a Friday night and the wait was pretty long.

SUP Noodle Bar (Irvine), 14370 Culver Drive, Unit 2H, Irvine, CA92604. Vietnamese, Peruvian, Asian Fusion cuisine. Mother's Day treat 4.3* rating out of 3,245 reviews (at the time of writing). Now I know why this place has high rating and the long line after trying it out for the first time. The restaurant looks small from the exterior, but it's actually extended to the back and quite spacious as you enter. Service was excellent, quick, friendly and welcoming. The Pho was excellent, the broth was rich and sweet. The portion of the noodle was just nice for 1-time serving. However, you can have as much noodle (not the broth) re-fills as you like. The beef very tender and melts in your mouth. Will be back to try the Peruvian food next time.

Pho Combination!
Kayla D.

The highlight of SUP Noodle bar is the fact that you get UNLIMITED NOODLE REFILLS for whatever pho order that you get! I came here on a Saturday afternoon around noon for lunch. I joined the waitlist, then went to grab a boba at Desouro, and soon enough we were seated. I've been here several times and the pho never disappoints. The noodles are always bouncy and chewy, though I prefer to not put the noodle broth into my soup as I feel that they are cooked differently as it has a different flavor than the pho broth. Also, the pickled onions that they serve here are perfectly thin and not over-pickled in the vinegar. Definitely one of my favorite places to have this side available. The pho was really good, and the bone in rib was the tastiest meat in the combination in my opinion. Service is quick and waiters are attentive and asked us numerous times if we had enough noodles. Interior is busy and nicely decorated, with plants hanging from the ceiling to be expected from a Kei Concepts restaurant. Pricing is much more fair compared to Ini though!

Short Rib Pho
Ariana L.

Finally had the chance to eat here, after hearing so many good things about this place! If you go early, like around 5pm there's little to no wait, thankfully For appetizers we got the spring rolls and truffle fries. The spring rolls were fresh and came with a delicious peanut sauce! The fries were well-seasoned and super crispy, which I loved! They also give you 3 different sauces for the fries which were fun to alternate between. For the main I got the short rib pho, which was sooo good! The broth was delicious and with a little lime and siracha was almost addicting the portion was generous and they give unlimited free refills of the rice noodles which is so nice! Overall I really enjoyed this meal, and would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a comforting and delicious meal!

Shaken House Fries
Megan S.

we got the shaken house fries and the pho short ribs. it was really good, and pricing was fair since you get unlimited noodles for their pho. the shaken fries were so crispy and i liked the sauce on top as well as the skinny fries that they use. they always have a wait but i think it's worth it considering the huge portions, warm service, and cozy/casual ambiance.

Pho Combination Pho
Jonathan L.

Still one of the best Pho places! Combination was delicious but honestly the beef belly pho is better. Other than the Pho, the truffle fries, chicken nuggets, and herbal ice tea are delicious!

Ask the Community - SUP Noodle Bar - Irvine

Any broths gluten and soy free?

Does your pho have fish sauce and msg?

Msg yes. I get really thirsty afterwards

I noticed the menu changed recently. Is the pho still gluten free? Thanks!

Depends on which pho you are ordering

Do you use msg or ingredients that contain msg in your pho?

We do use MSG in our food items. Thank you for reaching out

What is the cajun sauce made of?

What are your vegan/vegetarian options?

I just called them and they said they don't have any fully vegetarian options as they use beef broth (so the vegetable pho is NOT vegetarian/vegan). And they fry all their appetizers in the same oil so also not vegetarian or vegan friendly.

Are they Pet friendly?

There are tables in front outside where pets are okay.

What is the closest thing to rare steak pho on the menu?

Pho Beef Belly (and it's fantastic)

Do you have vegetarian options for the pho broth or only beef based broth?

Only beef based broth (I called them to ask - March 9, 2024)

Will you be open on 1/1/2023?

Yes, we'll be open from 11am to 9pm. Please do give us a visit!

Are the rice noodles homemade or gluten free? A lot of store bought pho/rice noodles use wheat starch as fillers.

I don't believe that they are made by the restaurant, but I have Celiac and have never had an issue eating their pho rice noodles!

Can somebody with a serious peanut allergy eat here without risk of cross-contamination? Is the pho peanut/tree nut friendly?

I think it's fine. I have a peanut allergy and I had no issues.

How accurate is the pickup "due" time when ordering a to-go order via Yelp?

Mine was ready like 15 min after the due time.

Is there anything gluten free? Is the pho gluten-free?

I have Celiac and have eaten various types of their pho with no issue. Their noodles are made of rice and are safe. I would ask about specific entrees (outside of pho) and if they are/can be made gluten free. However, many contain wheat as far as I… Read more

Is it pronounced "SOOP" or "SUHP"?

soop. saw it on the server's t shirt

Is this the same place behind Sam Wu, owned by a young Vietnamese whose mother is French?

No it's owned by Kei Concepts. The same people behind Gem Dining, Nep Cafe, Vox Kitchen and other restaurants.

Can you make reservation or waitlist only?

Waitlist only.

MSG in soups?

Yes, we do use MSG in our broths.

They're located in a high foot traffic plaza. Parking will be difficult to find. Ambiance/Environment: We visited on a Saturday evening around 19:30, and it was extremely busy. Luckily we were seated within 15 min. I love the vibes here. It's a bit loud, but you can still have a conversation. They have a large indoor area and a nice bar. Everything is kept clean. Service: Thank you Mia for taking care of us! She's very attentive, and throughput was surprisingly quick & efficient despite how busy it was. She also checked on us multiple times and refilled our waters. Food & drinks: We absolutely enjoyed everything! Safe to say the hype is real. 1) Curry Crab Omelette - This is my favorite dish. This was presented on a small skillet with rice in a separate bowl. The omelette was drenched in curry. The curry was seasoned well, semi thick consistency, with a hint of spice. 2) Vietnamese Shaken Beef (one w/ garlic noodles & one w/ rice) - I personally prefer the shaken beef at Vox. For whatever reason, the beef seemed to be overcooked bc it was very chewy. The vegetables tasted as expected, and the red rice was really delicious. The garlic noodles were good. 3) Lemongrass Tofu - The tofu was cooked well and seasoned deliciously. 4) 5-Spice Roasted Chicken - Exactly what the description says. The roasted chicken was huge. We weren't sure exactly what it was seasoned with, but we all devoured it. Yum! 5) Lychee Milk Punch - It's not dinner without alcohol. I thought it was pretty strong with the rum & whiskey. It's more on the sweeter end from the lychee & pineapple. The foam wasn't too thick, and it paired well with the drink. Pricing: These are elevated prices. We'll definitely be back for dinner, and we can't wait to try their brunch. Highly recommend joining the Kei Rewards!

I've eaten at Little sister a few times before and really liked their food, but was totally disappointed by their service and lack of professionalism in the dinning room.
