NoodleBird

We really enjoyed NoodleBird. Creative menu offerings. My partner really enjoyed the Wok Seared Pork Noodles. The texture of the rolled noodles was divine! My mistake for ordering one of the specials they had that day - Polish sausage with rice (not pictured) simply had too many flavors going on. Next time I’ll try one of their regular menu dishes. The egg tarts for dessert were simply delicious and I could eat an entire meal of just those! Order from your phone which didn’t bother us.

Noodle Bird at Fat Rice is seriously impressive and stands out as one of the best spots for high-quality Asian food. From the moment you walk in, everything feels welcoming and easy. It was simple to find a seat, and staff were quick to clean the table and help us get settled. Since it was our first visit, ordering at the counter was explained clearly, and the staff gave great recommendations that made choosing from the menu much easier. That kind of helpful, friendly service really sets the tone for the whole experience. The food itself is incredible. Every dish feels like true comfort food, elevated with bold flavors and thoughtful preparation. The noodles have the perfect texture, and the sauces bring a great balance of spice and tang that makes each bite memorable. You can tell a lot of care goes into every detail. Overall, it is the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression. Warm, flavorful, and satisfying in every way, this is definitely a spot worth coming back to again and again.

Had a great meal here, with a bunch of well executed Asian takes on street food in a fast-casual setting that makes it all really accessible. The chicken curry hand pie was basically a samosa croissant, very buttery, a bit of a cheat code. I had the minced soy sauce beef rice bowl, and the textures and flavors were great, with the beef and egg well cooked and the peanuts a highlight. I needed heat, but the hot sauces available were fun and interesting profiles to match with different dishes, and the phoenix fire got the dish to the perfect flavor balance I wanted. My only quibble, as a bit of a rice bowl slopper, was that the bok choy didn’t eat as smoothly as the rest of the dish, but as a vegetable to fit with the dish’s flavor it was good. My partner had the XO hand rolled noodles with shrimp. The noodle chewiness was great plus the mix of veggies were all good. A touch over sauced and at the bottom of the bowl you get why XO sauce is called that, it’s very strong and rich, but that also made it good. I had the ginger lemon and tumeric house soda and it was very perfectly tart and fizzy to go with the meal. We enjoyed ourselves so much we ended with an egg tart, and it was th

We dined in a few months ago, it just occurred to me that I can post this review and hopefully it will be seen. I think this is a good spot, maybe I just ordered the wrong stuff. Biggest complaint: The cabbage “salad” is horrible. Literally just giant pieces of squeaky fresh cabbage that is inedible. It needs to be changed, maybe cut finer and marinated in dressing so it can break down a little bit? The chicken in the chicken soup was good and tender. It is a kids meal so it makes sense that it may be more on the plain side. It was freezing cold outside so it hit the spot TBH. Wontons were good, fried rice was goo. Maybe I just need to try other stuff to be really satisfied EDIT: I meant “good”!!! Typo. The rice was good!! It wasn’t mushy at all, sorry for the confusion!!!

Been meaning to try this place for a while now. Wanted my visit to coincide with their happy hour & be able to enjoy something from their sister location next door: 'Bird Bird' (which is only open Sat/ Sun.. so really had to plan). Mentioned I was a first-timer interested in their Bbq Pork or Scallion Pancakes, mostly based on pictures from google reviews, BUT was here to score the happy hour. I'm not sure what was misunderstood but I ended up paying full price & basically could've visited at anytime (since nothing I orded was included in their happy hour 🙄). The pork was a bit chewy & not as tender as I had imagined. The 'Dreamsicle' drink satiated my sweet tooth. Tried to use their 'Phoenix Fire' sauce but literally could barely shake a few drops on my rice (sat at the empty bar & no one cared to engage.. even after dramatically struggling with the bottle for a bit.) Lastly, had to remind someone that I ordered an Egg Tart 30 mins ago but seems they forgot.. it was decent but the poor service made it unappetizing. It wasn't really a good first impression, especially for a solo diner at the empty bar who's never been before. I guess I can see the potential but there's much to b
