Wendy’s Noodle Cafe

I have been in Las Vegas since 1960 and I am an American born Chinese. My parents cooked Chinese food, but by far Wendy’s food is the very best. I have never had a bad meal there. Wendy is always there, smiles and very great staff. I feel like I am going to my girlfriends house for lunch or dinner. I bring All of my friends, clients, family, and they all agree great food
Thank you Wendy,

Food and service is decent. If you crave any type of Cantonese rice or noodle dishes Wendy’s Noodle Café would be the place. Wish their lemon ice tea would be like any HK cafes in L.A. with free refills, it’s wonderful on a hot summer day but with a charge every refill it adds up!

I was taken to. Wendy’sfive years ago. Never had a bad meal, my preference is. Gen. Chao chicken & beef. Chow. Fun. All items are made fresh. Damn! I’m hungry and I’m gonna go back tomorrow. The coolest part is seeing the owner, Wendy on site often

When we are in Las Vegas we always come to Wendy’s for Chinese dining. Best Chinese I have ever eaten. Sometimes if I am lucky enough, I’ll see what the staff is about to have for a meal. Then that’s what I want to order. My wife who is not as fond of Chinese food as I am, but she loves the menu selection and always enjoys what she has. Our daughter in law who is Chinese recommended we go there and we’ll go as often as we can while in Las Vegas. Great menu…
Being from Nebraska we love great food. Our best Italian in Omaha. Best Steak eating experience, Las Vegas. Best Mexican right in Lincoln… best Chinese right here in Las Vegas, Wendy’s.
These people are very nice, don’t miss the experience.

Tucked away in the suburbs of Las Vegas, this restaurant offers a Hong Kong style noodle house experience. This is one of my favorite small restaurants in Las Vegas! I have tried a variety of their noodles and their () over rice food and I always get satisfied with presentation, portion, and taste. The price is reasonable, too.
The place is clean and cozy; the service is fast and the servers are nice and friendly.
…and If you’re on a diet, stay away from their great tasting deserts!

Always great service & food. Just like a home cooked meal made by mom. I always get the kidneys with ginger and dumpling with egg noodles. Desserts are delish also if your dining in get the egg or the black sesame they are my favorites. Great for a big crowd or just for 2.

Easy to spot location and plenty of seating, the staff wasn’t as attentive as I was used to but the food was good. I went with my sister, she ordered the house crispy chow mein combo with seafood, pork and veggies. She absolutely loved it! I ordered the wonton egg noodle soup along with the Shanghai dumplings (soup dumplings). The egg noodle soup was delicious but the soup dumplings weren’t what I expected at all. I’m 4 ½ months pregnant and this was what I’d wanted for a week. I’ve had some of the best soup dumplings in New York City’s Chinatown and I was hoping for that quality. The ones from New York City were HUGE. The ones from this restaurant were the size of a half dollar and had zero soup inside. They still tasted good, just none of the soup that I’d craved. I must fulfill this craving and find another restaurant in Vegas that serves the best soup dumplings.

I’ve been coming to Wendy’s for several years now and I’m in love… not with Wendy herself, but the Amazing food that is created. I first came here with my Dad and Step Mom when I visited them from California and I became instantly hooked. Everything we’ve ordered from here is consistently delicious and made to order. I’ve brought friends here, and my wife and I make it a must stop every trip to Vegas. Even though we order the same 4 – 5 dishes everytime we visit, I simply can’t get enough of this place. We always order the Salt and Pepper Shrimp, honey eggplant dish, X. O noodles, X. O green beans and of course ask for their chili sauce that they bring from the back. Places like this are a foodies dream. Thank you Wendy!

This was a decent find. The menu has a LOT of options, so if you’re going to be eating with people that have different cravings, give this place a try.
We ordered:
Shanghai Dumplings (8) $ 6.25
Spicy Steak Cubes and Rice Cake with Ramen $ 8.99
Portuguese Curry Baked with Pork $ 8.50
Everything was good, but not mind-​blowing. There are a lot of fusion options too, and the food kind of tasted more fusion that it was Hong Style.
For example the Portuguese Curry Baked with Pork was too creamy and didn’t have a lot of taste. The Spicy Steak Cubes and Rice Cake with Ramen had too many rice cakes, making it taste a little bland.

Giving this place 2 stars because the food was good and it came in a timely manner albeit the server did not deliver one of the menu item that we ordered.
Let’s start from the beginning. My friend and I walked in, waited about a minute until the server recognized us and without saying anything motioned with his hand the number 2. I nodded and he wave his hand to the half of the restaurant where he wanted us to sit and then proceeded to go to the kitchen. Well hello to you too.
As we sat down the server came back and without saying anything, put the menu on the table and left. He came back a bit later with hot tea. My friend and I ordered butter lemon chicken, assorted seafood and pork with rice noodle soup, NY steak with rice and the beef cube sauteed with rice and green beans. I would’ve loved to know how the butter lemon chicken tastes like but sadly our server never gave it to us. I loved the soup it tasted very clean. The NY steak and beef cubes were well seasoned.
I should also mention that NOT once did our server or anyone other employee working the front asked «How is everything» «how does the food taste» «would you like some water» «did you need anything». NOTHING. I would’ve loved to get another bowl and spoon so my friend and I could share the soup, but we made do by taking turns eating for the serving bowl. Each employee had a dead look to their faces and seemed annoyed when you ask them a question.
If you want to eat at a place where the food is a tad above average and horrendous customer service with dead-​faced servers that does not want to talk to you then this place is the right place for you.

Aaaand… good! Really good.
There is the kind of Chinese that you have delivered to eat in your pjs and the kind that you go and be amongst the people, this is completely the later.
Bit before 1pm Saturday…15 minute wait for 2 of us… the dining room waxed and waned the entire time we were there with lots of larger groups and families.
Just tested the waters with our ordering: Chinese broccoli in garlic sauce (not in menu, but they made it for us!)…gots to get those greens in somehow.
Ribeye bao burger… surprised actually — this was sooo good like the super best part of a cheesesteak without the cheese.
Chefs special wings. greasy in a yumm way And… XLB! Coolio that only pork so all at the table may partake! Okay, no soup in most… but. we are not on either coast either???@&!
It was good… we are most definitely going back for more… more please, more!

3 stars just about nails it. Also had really high expectations of this place judging from reviews and pictures here. I was expecting a more traditional authentic Hong Kong café style restaurant but this place is more of a fusion place. We ordered the ramen, rice cake and beef dish and honestly wasn’t anything all that special. The Portuguese pork cutlet tasted good but had a really strange consistency to the sauce. It’s as if they used way too much corn starch so the sauce was almost like stringy melted cheese, wasn’t appealing to the eye at all. The soup dumplings were good although far from the best. The place is clean and the service about average although you do get free soup which was delicious. I’d go back to try their soup dishes but with all of the surrounding options I’d be hard pressed to become a regular here.

Pretty awesome HK café. Brought a non Chinese friend here and he loved it too. Had wanton noodles with added BBQ pork. Wanton was Good. Spicy clams was GOOD. Also had a side of stir fried Veggies with garlic. Also good! Dropped by after a quick Unilocal search. Open late and had great reviews! Will definitely be back again sometime when I am back in Vegas again!

I bookmarked Wendy’s Noodle Café way before I made the move to Vegas months ago, so when I happened to be in the area I knew I had to make my way over to see what all the hype was about. When I finally found the restaurant and parked in the lot, I saw that the real party was across the street. The little shopping center across the way was packed with people– this was my chance to drive over there for dinner, but I was finally here I had to give Wendy’s a shot.
We were seated and we ordered the most popular things according to the Unilocal reviews– including the steak cubes with ramen noodles! For some reason, this always looked intriguing and when it finally arrived at our table I was rather disappointed. It wasn’t horrible, but it definitely wasn’t deserving of all the raving Unilocal reviews! We also ordered the chicken wings and they were okay. Also had some beef noodle soup thing (can’t remember the name) and that was just okay. When ordering I asked the server what the difference in noodles were and she just said they were noodles– uhhh okay. I know I’m asian and I should know my asian food, but I am not a noodle expert. The soup was decent. I mean, its soup. How can you go wrong with soup?
Overall, dinner was just okay. We waited a long time for the server to come back to the table to take our order and to bring us the check– it was one of those dinners that lasted for like 2 hours for no reason. Meh.

As many reviews here, it’s either a hit or miss when it comes to their food and depending what you order. There’s just too many choices to choose from that weren’t very familiar to me.
The workers here are very friendly, particularly the lady with the glasses. She has always served us every time I’m here and she’s very quick and helpful with what to get since we weren’t so familiar with the menu.
The restaurant:
Very clean and spacious. Every time I’m eating here, they’re always mopping the floor. Shows how clean the front of the house is. I do enjoy the Korean music that they play here as well.
Menu and food:
The menu is pretty big. A lot of varieties to choose from and it’s not so expensive at all. Most of the things on the menu are between 3 – 15 dollars. What a deal! The portions are also big too. Every time we go here, we always love trying new things. So we ordered the beef egg drop over rice, combination pan fried noodle, and salt and pepper calamari. Here’s the breakdown for you guys.
Beef egg drop over rice with an egg on top? WOW. I have no words to how delicious this was. If you’re a big fan of egg drop soup, you’ll definitely love this dish. Hot egg drop soup over rice, beef slices, and an egg. Need I say more? Really filling. ¹⁰⁄₁₀
Combination pan fried: consisted of crunch noodles, shrimp, squid, fish, pork, chicken, beef, mushrooms, carrots, and the greens! It was pretty filling, but it was just okay. ⁵⁄₁₀
Salt and pepper calamari was very well breaded. The only problem I had with this was that it was tooooooooooo salty. Every time I ate a piece, I had to drink water. Ugh. Probably drank three glasses full just from the calamari.
Overall, everything came up to 30 dollars which is such a deal. My experience here has always been consistent. There’s definitely some items on the menu that I would love to try. Especially the yummy desserts! Was too full to try them, but til next time! I’ll be back :).

It’s a hit or miss based on what you order, but I really enjoyed my meal, and the best part is that the price is reasonable with what you get.
Honey glazed eggplant– 5 stars. WUUUUUUUUUHHHHH!!! this was a must before I got here, and I already believed that it would be amazing. So awesome and the rest of the group was shocked at how good it was. People. Eggplant is bomb if you know how to cook it right, and when It has some crispy stuff outside, it’s even more glorious!!! I made my table a believer.
Jalapeño in black bean sauce– 5 stars. Damn, this was no joke. It was spicy, but it was a really really good sauce. They should pour this stuff over rice or noodles and make it into a dish.
Seafood chow fun in XO sauce– 2.5 stars. It was meh. I love chow fun, XO sauce was weak, and it lacked flavor.
Crispy fried rice cakes– 3 stars. It’s good, but I wasn’t too fond of the vinegar sauce. I think it’s just my personal taste issue as others loved it.
Milk tea boba was awesome but thai iced tea float (which looked fantabulous in theory) was NOT good. That was a shocker.
I’ll be back for more!!! This will be my new regular for a while.

So this place is tricky… some food here are super good, 5 starts… while others are 1 stars. However, overall i like the place and prices so I’ll give it 4. I’ll break down below what I have eaten and what I like and don’t like.
5 stars
1. The preserved egg and pork porridge. So amazing and perfectly salty and thick. Love the meat and the flavorful eggs. This is my favorite dish there.
2. On the appetizer list they have a fried rice cake with egg that is really good. Dip it in hot sauce and enjoy!
3. Their red bean drink with grass jelly and ice cream. Perfect way to end the meal. Its big so share with friends
4 stars
1. Wonton noodle soup. Hits the spot but I’ve had had better
2. Ton Yum fried rice — I like it but it tastes more like tomato friend rice. I like sweet. My friends were expecting this to be spicy though. Also squid was a little slimy
3. Clay pot spare ribs — also very sweet but good. Little meat though
4. Their rice cake and ramen with beef dish. I like it but tis sweet. so don’t order if you like savory
5. veggies — standard I guess
3 starts
1. Singapore noodles — good but wayyyy tooo salty. Maybe it was just our batch
1 star
1. Their beef with flat noodles. This is such a staple in restaurants but they messed it up big time. The noodles were slimy and the dish tasted like ALMONDS flavoring. SUch weird flavor. Our whole table agreed. Needed to put a lot of hotsauce and vinegar and soy sauce to mask the flavor. When I asked the waitress she said that there is no such flavor…

Great chinese food with great prices! Most dishes are less than $ 10!
Located in Chinatown at the same shopping center as 168 Market. Wendy’s Noodle Café is its own house, literally.
The place is small, but there’s never a line and there’s always a place to sit. It gets busy, but good thing it doesn’t get super packed.
I come here for the egg noodle soup. My favorite is the sui kai dumpling soup with egg noodles. The sui kai dumplings have shrimp, pork, and chives on the inside. It comes in a big bowl, but I always end up finishing the whole thing. It’s that good!
I’ve also had their roast duck and egg custard desserts. Yummy.
The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was the service. There were many servers, but it took some time for our food to arrive each time I go there. Whenever I need to ask for extras (like sauces, silverware, chop sticks, etc), it took some time to get a server’s attention. I think they could be a little more attentive and responsive.
Other than service, the quality of the food is great and prices are good.

I’m from the 626 in Cali, and that’s pretty much the real chinatown of LA sooooo instead of giving it 2 stars I’ll bump it to 3. It’s really everything you’d want in a stereotypical chinese joint… the smell of cooked oil right when you walk in, down to the mediocre service from the awkward employees. They came by really early to see if we wanted to order, but had a lot of trouble helping us with recommendations or even what we wanted when we were finally ready… it was like they really didn’t want to talk to us. Which maybe they didn’t lol.
Anyway, food-​wise, also very stereotypical… ultra greasy string beans, they were glistening under the lights and the oil pooled on the bottom of the plate. Flavor wise was okay though, and they didn’t give a whole lot of veggies for the price. Crispy noodle dish was okay, not too much to say on that one… not bad, but definitely not great. We also ordered the salty fish seafood fried rice, which I liked the most. Very separated rice, not the chunky texture that sticks to each other, so depending how you like your fried rice could be good or bad. Lots of extra salty fish, which I thought made the dish a wee bit too salty, but the rest was not too bad.
Overall, it’s eh. Carb dishes are the go to… hangover food, right?

Went there last night for takeout.
I didn’t see chicken lo mein or kung pao chicken on the menu but they made it for me! How cool is that? And I got steamed dumplings. All of it was like $ 34. It was super good and I would eat there again.
I waited for like 20 minutes for the food. Not bad. Minus one star because they forgot my rice and I had to go back for it.
