Noodle World Jr.

It is really a Noodle World with almost every kind of meal of noodle you can imagine) So I will come back to try it all eventually)) Highly recomend it.

Once upon a time, I made fun of this place. Not based on anything other than its name. I mean. NOODLE WORLD? Then, I entered the doors of this heaven on earth and suddenly the laughs were no more.
This place is absolutely mind blowing. If you’ve never had the garlic noodles– DO IT.
The service is just as great as the food. Thanks for making me a believer in the world of noodles.

Very delicious!
Had the deep fried tofu, and noodles with tofu.
Very filling. Love the music. Great location! Will come back fer sure!!!

Way less options compared to the other Noodle World Jr’s I have been to. I know they only have some of the dishes that the real Noodle World has but this one was really disappointing. The ceiling was cool. The food was bland and again disappointing. I ordered the Pineapple fried Rice and one of the Ramen bowls.

The veggie ramen was bland. No flavor.

I work in Orange County and there are several ramen places there, but none by my house. Noodle World Jr. is very close to me and I am so happy they are here! I can’t compare to other locations, but my ramen was awesome and I also tasted the Shrimp Fried Rice dish. It was excellent as well. The staff was courteous (I ordered to go) and I got a generous portion for the price.
While my Ramen was outstanding, I do wish they had the option for egg. I also ordered mine extra extra spicy because most Asian and Indian restaurants I have been to seem to tone it down for me for some reason. I am going tonight again and will ask for extra extra extra spicy…
The last thing I will mention is that they close at 9, even on weekends. I told them they could make a mint staying open a few extra hours since they are so near the colleges.

Similar to most people here, I automatically compared it to the San Gabriel location. My review is based on what I usually order: Drunken noodles, Spicy Spaghetti, Pad See Ewe and Mint Leaf Chicken. 1) Their spicy levels are a notch lower than typical Asian restaurants; their medium spicy is a mild at the San Gabriel location. 2) They don’t offer meat/​seafood options on their dishes; it’s usually just chicken. 3) The portions of the dishes we ordered were the SAME as the San Gabriel location. 4) The price difference wasn’t noticeable. 5) The dining area is much smaller but cleaner. 6) The employees are friendlier. 7) The soups are served in a plastic bowl (even dine-​in) and it is much smaller than the bowls they serve them in, in the San Gabriel location.
All in all, I’m a fan and I’m glad they opened one near me. I truly wish them success, hence why I wrote this constructive criticism/​review. My family and I will definitely come back and try out the different spicy levels.

I am a big fan of noodleworld in alhambra california. When i found out that there’s a nearby noodleworld where i live, i got so excited. I immediately tried this place since i am craving for a phở. Thought its gonna be the same as the one in alhambra but got so disappointed when i tried the phở. First the broth seems like just water with beef broth powder. No taste at all. And when you ask for extra broth you need to pay extra couple dollars. Are you kidding me? Need to pay $ 2 for extra water?.., secondly the ingredients, only the beef steak, no stripe, no fish balls etc., The only thing the same is the ice tea with bobba. So if your looking for the real authentic phở, I won’t recommend this place.

I love this place! Best Chicken Noodle ever! I always order this every time I come here and the hubby orders different things. The flavor is consistently the same and delicious every time! Also, If you want more noodles its only $ 1 more for egg noodles. Their Veggie Egg rolls are yummy too! I tried their teriyaki chicken one time also and found the chicken to have wonderful flavor but the white rice had a weird flavor to it like a sort of jasmine rice and I am not a fan of fragrant rice.

Friendly service, nice ambience. I LOVE the yellow curry with chicken and the drunken noodles! They are to die for!!!

This spot was pretty good, i order Pork Udon with a thai ice tea with boba. The place is small but the service was fast and overall good. ⁸⁄₁₀

Delicious fire! The garlic beef is the best! You’ll end you smelling like garlic but it’s all worth it! The price range from $ 7.50 up but the amount of food is huge!

We got spicy beef ramen, udon soup and shrimp fried rice (plain for daughter). Also got Thai tea which was on point. Everything was delicious, will definitely come back to try other dishes from this spot.

I came here because I was craving ramen due to the cold weather. Upon arrival I noticed that the place was really neat and well kept, the staff was very friendly, and inviting. So I decided to order the Tonkotsu Ramen, in which I asked for a seasoned egg for the ramen. The cashier told me that they don’t put seasoned eggs in their ramen, which I found disappointing because that’s one one of hallmarks for Japanese ramen. So I decided to order the soup anyways (big mistake) to my luck, they don’t accept American Express (no big deal, I’ll just pay with my debit). The cashier brings me the food along with chop sticks and condiments (Siracha, soy sauce, etc.). Very good service.
My initial thoughts on the ramen, I noticed that the broth was very bland, there wasn’t much to the broth. It tasted like your ordinary broth that you’d get from the 99 cent ramen you find at the Asian market. The pork in the soup was extremely dry, disgusting, I had to spit it out because it was so hard, dry, and chewy. The noodles were somewhat hard, I tried adding Siracha and soy sauce to spruce up the flavor of the soup but with no avail. Just a complete waste of money ($ 9.14). Now I never had any of their other stuff aside from the ramen, but if it’s anything like this, then don’t bother.
Overall: The service was good, the restaurant was clean but the food was absolutely terrible. Just an absolute waste of money, find another place to get your ramen fix, this place was absolutely disgusting. Maybe their other stuff is good (I won’t deny it because I’ve never had it) but I won’t be coming back to find out. I gave it 2 stars for the cleanliness and service but that’s it.
Anyways I hope this review helps.
Update: it’s been a couple of hours and I’m having flu-​like symptoms. Stay away from this place, the food was disgusting and I’m getting food poisoning over it. Don’t bother with this place, many other food joints in the area that are much better. I wish I would’ve avoided this place altogether.

Someone from the area recommended I come here since I was craving ramen. And something fairly quick, but not too quick.
So I get to the location and my first thought was this place is pretty small, next thought was this place is pretty empty, and my final thought as I walked to the cashier to place my order was that bowl is REALLY small. I figured what the heck, I’m going to order anyways. I was really interested in the Shrimp Tom Yum Ramen so I ordered it. She ordered the Chicken Phö.
While ordering I wasn’t too sure how spicy it would be. The cashier decided to just give me two different spicy sauces on the side for me to decide which one I want upon receiving my ramen. I actually need up mixing them both together and it was the perfect amount of spice I needed. We both noticed the broth for the ramen AND the Phö were really oily. We noticed the oil before even eating. And with our first bites it was more apparent. So the extra oil that is in the broth is probably because the broth is Oxtail based.
I don’t think I’d come back for any of the soups. I heard their fried rice dishes were really good contrary to their soups. To get those though I’d go to their BIGGER location in Alhambra or Pasadena.

Finally a Noodle World nearby!!!
This isn’t your regular Noodle World, it’s the fast casual version. The menu is a lot smaller (way smaller!) but everyone’s favorites are still available like spicy spaghetti (aka sriracha spaghetti).
I tried the phở and ramen here. Not the most authentic but it’s great when you don’t wanna drive far and want something quick, homey, warm and comforting in your belly.
Boba is pretty bad here, the boba balls are hard and inedible. Just stick to the food!

Found this place on Unilocal and it didn’t disappoint. My daughter ordered the #12 and Boston warned us that it has a sour taste to it. He told us if we didn’t like it when we first tried it he would change out. Sure enough she didn’t like it. I had the #21 which was really good. Veggie egg rolls were good as well.
Overall we will come back.

I like the shrimp tom yum soup a lot, probably will be back frequently just for the soup:) they offer so much shrimp in the soup, and the soup is pretty darn tasty and fill you up well! Soup was sour, salty and spicy. If you like that mixture, then this soup is FOR YOU.
The only thing I wonder about this place are their bowls, are they reusing the plastic bowl? Since this place is a «clean up your own mess», we clean our own table and throw our own stuff away. As I threw my bowl away, I saw the sign saying to empty bowl and leave it on top. So they are re using it? I wouldn’t mind if bowls were ceramics instead of plastic… Reusing plastic doesn’t seem like a great idea esp. if food contain heat.

Unbelievable!!!
Asked numerous time if they could prepare a nut-​free meal. Ordered the Spring Rolls and Drunken Noodles. The young man who took the order (Joseph) seemed to be the only diligent person. I heard him ask the boy who brought the food about nuts and he guaranteed that there were no nuts.
That irresponsible idiot included nut-​sauce in our bag!
Do NOT order if you have food allergies! I will not be surprised if someone ends up in ER! Good thing we double checked!

Went there twice today. Was vacilating between 3 and 4 stars until I went the second time. First time I had the tonkotsu ramen. It tasted correct. That amazed me a a shop that had so many different types of noodles. It tasted like cheap ramen you’d get at a chain in Japan. That works for me and is so much better than when people get it completely wrong. Biggest complaint was that the pork tasted like it was frozen and lost its moisture. It was a bit spongy. I was impressed the broth was correct and the noodles had «koshi» (al dente).
We took a tour of Pitzer College and came back after for boba. After living in Honolulu, my daughter joked that she could not live somewhere without boba so we had to try it. She had a lychee smoothie with boba and I had the Thai Iced Tea with Lychee cubes. This is the first time in our lives that we didn’t finish boba. Some of the boba was hard and some was too soft. I’ve never experienced inconsistent firmness in boba. My Thai Iced Tea tasted powdery and looked mango colored. It didn’t taste like tea at all.
I’d go back ramen and would try the other noodles, but stay away from the boba and other drinks.
