My goodness, what a find! We arrived a bit on the later side, but the moment we stepped through the…read moredoors, we were enveloped in such a lovely, inviting warmth. It is truly one of those rare neighborhood gems that feels both authentic and incredibly welcoming. The service was impeccable from the start, but the highlight was truly the charming interaction with the chef. He was kind enough to personally walk me through the evening's selections, and we had the most delightful chat! I decided on one of my absolute weaknesses: the Fresh Pork Dumplings. The chef was quite attentive and offered to add an onion paste, but after a brief explanation of my preferences, he was more than happy to prepare them exactly to my liking. It's that level of bespoke attention that I truly adore. The dumplings arrived steaming hot in just a matter of minutes absolutely bursting with authentic, clean flavors. It was a thoroughly wonderful experience, and I shall certainly be making this a regular stop on my Uptown rounds!

Even though its a small parking lot in a strip plaza. Fresh hand pulled noodles are good, which were a little soft for my personal preference, but still good. It may sound strange but things with pork will taste porky. My girlfriend doesn't like pork, but can eat it, but she ordered the pork and shrimp dumplings and it was too porky for her. For me, it tasted just right because this is the flavors I grew up with. The dumpling dough had a nice texture that I prefer. My Ramen had a big fatty pieces of pork which is what I like. They didnt skimp. It was a good bowl of noodle soup. Wouldn't say its the best ramen I ever had, but it was good. Beef roll was good, I would say its one of the better ones I've seen in ABQ where its really filled with beef. Would recommend this. We also got soup dumplings and I will say that we didnt get the proper spoons for them. At first I thought they just didnt offer them, but looking at photos, we never got them. It makes a difference for your eating experience and enjoyment. We will definitely be back as this is one of the better Chinese restaurants in the area and you really get some real Chinese variety and not your basic generic stereotypical menu.

This is one of my favorite spots but is always best if eating in. I got this order through DoorDash…read moreand it seems that more times than not. The food comes lukewarm at best it has to be reheated. I started out with the eggrolls which are very good but at the same time are pretty darn expensive. Overall the place is somewhat expensive, but everything is made to order even all the noodles. The Sesame Chicken was quite tasty as was the spicy beef but the meat was quite tough considering it was thinly sliced. The pot stickers were a bit underdone and cold so we warmed them up. Lastly the jalapeño bomb was surprisingly enjoyable. The burst of flavors is something I really look forward to again. I would say it could've been just a little less crunchy and it would've been perfect.. We'll make sure that on the next visit we eat in.

Wow..I'm surprised I never took the time to stop by Fun Noodle Bar after almost 5 years of living…read morein ABQ! I honestly thought that it was a very Americanized Chinese restaurant all along until I got to talk to one Chinese lady who also lived here and told me that the food here was good! So, I was so determined to get here one day after feeling a little homesick for more authentic Asian food. Usually I would end up at a Vietnamese or a Chinese place I had been to, but this time I wanted to try something new and I'm so glad I did choose Fun Noodle Bar. The staff were nice and it was so no frills eating there. I did get a pan fried bao and a Chicken Fun Noodke soup (but I switched our chicken for beef instead!). I also loved that I could pick the neat I wanted for my pants fried bao (i chose pprk because pork was probably more traditional style of bao). And oh, after my first bite of the bao, all I could think of was wow...that hit the spot for me! I actually debated ordering more..but that's probably too unhealthy to be eating two servings at once!! The noodle soup was ok it tasted good but a little bland for my taste. Next time, I would probably try the real Chinese style noodles like youpou or thick flat handmade noodles with some chili based soup instead! No photos thus time as I was so hungry looking for food that I forgot to bring my cell phone to take photos. But you bet next time I'm there, I wthere! enjoying and exploring more authentic options there again soon!

I have visited Tamashi a few times and and just now getting to my review…read more I want to preface this by saying that they should have a five star review, but finish my reading this and you will see why. It is not the biggest restaurant, and is popular, so I would recommend being prepared to wait during "popular busy time" but it is so worth the wait. So I also recommend waiting. The staff is always pretty friendly and accommodating. I shared an app, a roll and an order of salmon sashimi with a friend on both visits. The food is always fresh, and delicious! I never feel like I am being overcharged for what I get either. Going to eat for sushi can feel like that sometimes. The quality of the food is great and everything is always aesthetically pleasing as well. I had their avocado bomb on my last visit and I was delightfully surprised with it. I like avocado in most cases, but sometimes, it can be a lot at one. I thought this was going to be like that when I saw it, but I was wrong. I look forward to getting one of these on my next visit! On my last visit my friend and I saved room for a dessert, one that we saw rotating on their screens that they have in the restaurant showcasing some of the menu items. It was a take on a bananas foster. It looked delicious but alas, we'll see if we can manage to get it next time. Note to self, have dessert first on next visit?

I used to live in both San Francisco and Seattle where good hot pot was almost as plentiful as…read moreStarbucks shops. There aren't as many choices here. And sometimes when there's limited choice here I'll make do with what is available. Fortunately this place is great. You can order a single broth or a split pot. I usually go with the taiwan spicyy broth and one of the others. It's always good, regardless of what ingredients you order they'll pile the plate high. They offer tons of condiments and ice cream for desert. I've also ordered this as delivery which I thought was impossible. But they make it work. You order your broth (single flavor uless you get two orders of broth). You also order your ingredients and whatevder sides you want. I usually get beef, pork and meatballs. Rather than cooking yourself they come cooked in a container with a little brother and you add them at your leisure. I usually get the spicy chicken nuggets as a side and they are delicious. It's a huge portion of food and I almost always have leftovers. Great place!

My server patiently described it all to me and answered my questions. I ended up having a wonderful time both times I've gone. The Thai curry broth is really good. This place is vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free friendly. The portion size is very large. The sauces on the sauce bar are delicious. I really enjoyed being able to mix them in just the ways I chose, that most were vegetarian and vegan, and deciding just what I wanted to eat- which broth, which vegetables and tofu. There is also green onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and such at the sauce bar. There are many options available. The fried mushroom appetizer was good too. Great for a group or date night. It is a casual atmosphere, but a fun experience.

Had to wait a bit, but not too long but long enough to make you wish they were faster. There are multiple places to order food here so there is plenty of seating.

I was expecting all kinds of Naruto stuff everywhere but I had to look really hard to just find one single Naruto action figure.

The food itself was pretty decent, the ramen didn't quite match up to big city quality ramen but it was the best we've had in New Mexico so far if that says anything ‍.

A year ago we would have given Noodle Works 5 stars. Not…read moresure what is happening to this place, but it USED TO BE amazing. It was so good last year that we actually had a conversation with the owner about them being from San Francisco, after I told him it was the best Chinese food I've had in America outside of San Francisco. Well, that has changed significantly, and not for the better. We made a trip down from Santa Fe this week, specifically to eat at Noodle Works. Yes, we drove over an hour each way on Monday just to eat here. What a mistake! It was clear the General Tzo chicken was microwaved and not fresh fried. It was absolutely inedible! Mall food court Chinese is better than this dish was. Strange because almost exactly 1 year ago their General Tzo's dish was among them best I've ever tasted. I know this dish is not authentic, but to serve pre-fried then microwaved chicken is inexcusable! The Singapore Noodle dish this time was incredibly dry. The curry was more like a dry rub stuck to the noodles than it was a real curry sauce. Again... mall food court quality. Another dish that used to be amazing here. The crab in the crab rangoon was so fishy you could smell it before it was even delivered to the table. It had clearly sat out unrefridgerated during prep for far too long. It was inedible, or of fear of getting food poisoning... they did take it off of our bill. We are so disappointed in how bad the quality has fallen off in the last year! We loved them so much in the past that we will give them one more try, but we will not be making a special trip down from Santa Fe to eat here again. We REALLY hope they get their act together because we really like the employees and owner and want to continue to support them. Management did apologize without being prompted for the slow service and poor quality food, so hopefully they know serious improvement is needed if they are to stay in business. We wish them the best because they are great people. Good luck!

Their Birria tacos are $2 each and are the perfect mix of beef and cheese on a corn tortilla taco. It's not seasoned hamburger, but real, chewy, tasty beef. Go with the Birra tacos, they're the best. The steak taco had a good amount of steak and was 2nd best. The shrimp taco had 2 mid-small shrimp, but was tasty and 3rd best. The chicken taco was packed, but made with chicken and potatoes, bland and dry. All tacos had cheese with cucumbers and onions on the side. No tomatoes or salsa, but I said absolutely no cilantro, so that may be why. A consume is available for dipping and I enthusiastically recommend it, the flavor was rich, meaty and properly seasoned. The manager was attentive and friendly, but the waitress appeared to be a bit inexperienced, slow to get around the tables. She had a great personality, gave great insight on the food and was quite welcoming. She'll be a star in hospitality/food if she puts in the time and effort. The ambiance is your standard "strip mall dive" type booths and tables that aren't there to impress, but get the job done.
