I expected the noodles just to be dumped into the spicy boiled fish, but out came a huge bowl of soup noodles. I ended up scooping the noodles out of that soup into the fish sauce instead, much better. I think they used a lot of MSG though because I was pretty thirsty afterward. The fish was a bit floury I think, but the spicy flavor was great. The price was fair at 12 AUD for the great amount of food.

I came here many moons ago for their full set dinner menu, and honestly, I don't remember much of it. This time around, came for the lunch menu and I must say, I was pretty impressed. Deep fried chicken with chili. The crunchiest chicken ever, covered with piles of dried chilies. Although it almost looks explosive, it also tastes so good that you might not be able to stop. Service was decent, unless you asked for them, they will mostly leave you alone to enjoy your meal. The ambiance is quite welcoming, feels very clean and new. Also do check out their lunch specials (Mon-Fri until 4 p.m), which listed some of their popular dishes for $10. xx! :) Tip: Mins $20 & no splits bills...boo!

I didn't really focus on the drink side of my visit. For me it was about the food this time. My entree was nice. I got the roti bread with the peanut sauce. The sauce was slightly too strong. But it was a good start to the experience. The sweet and sour sauce was fantastic I made a sensible, safe choice and got the Singapore and chicken noodles. Something I knew I would enjoy. It was quite nice. Pretty good. Smooth and consistent. I would recommend going here for the large variety you could choose from and the very reasonable prices. Its mind boggling how many options there were. Well spread and versatile. 3 stars from me. Food was pretty good. Enjoyable lunch for me and my friend.

I say Asian for a good reason, Nudle is actually fusion, you can order Mee Goreng to Green Curry Chicken and even Nasi Lemak. So yes, of course... I had to try Nasi Lemak. Excited to see if Nudle could give me a good Nasi Lemak, I was initially quite impressed. For an Asian fusion place they hit the mark with the anchovies and peanuts. Chicken Curry was tasty but not amazing, the rice was cooked well. The only two things I found was that the vegetables were diced and included carrot (bizzare) + the boiled egg was obviously pre made and kept in the fridge as it came on the plate ice cold.... Wait and one more things.... NO SAMBAL.... :( If the egg was a bit more fresh, plus they had a hot sambal this rating could have been four stars.

I decided on the seafood Mi Goreng. Coincidentally, and unfortunately, Goreng rhymes with boring. The dish wasn't at all bad, but the seafood seemed a day or two past freshly caught and overall it was a bit on the bland and oily side. Accompanied with surly service, this place just rates 3 stars, for now at least. The food and the prices were decent enough to give it another go, so I'll update my review accordingly after I've returned to try something the proprietor recommends.

Would definitely recommend this for anyone in search of a delicious and reasonably priced meal.

We stopped in for a late lunch and fortunately the restaurant wasn't that crowded. The menus are almost entirely in Chinese so it can be difficult if you can't read... We both ordered combo meals and walked out stuffed! The price point was just right and everything was delicious. There are a few different combo options and one we got included a bowl of noodles (pick which one you want), steamed pork w/ rice powder, and bing fen (dessert). The noodles were spicy, a bit oily but oh so satisfying to eat. I could have done without the steamed pork but the bing fen was delicious. After a big bowl of spicy noodles on a hot day, it was a perfect way to end the meal - cool and sweet w/ a mix of different textures. This isn't a place over-run by tourists so it's a great place to grab some authentic noodles without too much of a wait. If I'm ever back in Melbourne, I'd definitely come here for a meal.

Located a block from the AirBnb we were staying at, there was one on either side of the street! We checked out the menu and though noodle soup sounded delish for a windy/cool evening so we dropped in and grabbed a table. You order at the counter, there's not very many options, but you do get to choose the thickness of your hand-pulled fresh noodles! I saw some sides in the glass case as well, but the Signature Beef Noodle Soup is where it's at! I got mine with the "thicker noodles" which is like a rice noodle and was not disappointed. The broth was clear and flavorful, the beef was tender and the noodles tasted fresh and handmade. They were cooked perfectly and everything about this bowl was noodles was on point and fantastic. Why can't they have more places like this in the states?! Fresh high quality ingredients with amazing flavors. They don't specialize in a lot but what they do specialize in is the best of what they have to offer! I want another bowl as we speak and wasn't opposed to coming back here another night while we were in town. So many good eats to choose from though, so I never got the chance. The Spicy Beef Noodle Soup has a sichuan peppercorn spice to it, so if you don't like the tongue numbing sensation of peppercorns, stay clear cause there is a lot of it in that bowl! We got 2 bowls for "take-away", as the Australians would say, or "to-go" in the states and they packed it nicely for us in very sustainable plastic containers. The noodles and broth were kept separate so that you can mix and enjoy when you get home! They do charge extra for take-out and for to-go containers though, especially when you dine-in and don't finish! Seems to be the norm in Australia to pay extra for take-away containers, so don't be alarmed. Delicious beef noodle soup and I would definitely recommend this place and come back, if I ever get the chance!

Yeah, this place isn't too bad, and it isn't all that pricey either.
