My experience was not that good. My wife ordered the beef noodle soup which was just served warm, noodles were soggy as well. I ordered the Taiwan noodles and my daughter the shrimp noodles, both were just a mere "meh", noodles and vegetables overcooked. I will not be going back. read more

I drove passed this place a couple of times and was curious if it was any good. My boyfriend and I went in on a Friday evening and there wasn't a wait for a table. Very clean, friendly staff. We ordered the pork buns, shrimp noodles, shrimp fried rice, general tsos chicken, beef noodle soup and scallion pancakes. EVERYTHING was delicious !!! We loved all of the food and it came out pretty quick but was all cooked very well. I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

Highly recommended the braised beef noodle! It was very delicious. But other dishes were not good and authentic. read more

Edison Noodle House - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

My three star does not mean this restaurant serves worst food, but as a frequent customer for over 2 years and a Taiwanese, I could list what is good vs what needs improving in terms of food: 1.Spicy chilly beef noodles is the new dish ever since this restaurant has ownership change. Honestly they will give customer larger serving as takeout. Dining in serving is obviously smaller. I have high tolerance of spiciness for I grew up with a bit Schichuan upbringing, but this dish is way too spicy if you don't ask them to do less. Except for that, I think this is my favorite so far. 2. Vinegar seaweed( cold dish): this is very authentic and my must have. Definitely get this on in summer time. 3. Pan-fried rice cake: either shanghai or veggie one is good ; personally I think it is a bit too greasy, but flavor-wise is great. The genuine reason for 3 stars: As for beef noodles that should represent Taiwan's most food of appeal, I would say this restaurant does not keep the quality and has disappointed me for several times. The beef is not as tender as it should be; once( and of course last), I got the beef which I could tell it's been in freezer for long: not fresh and hard to chew. Also the soup does not taste flavorful enough with a bit under-cooked noodles. I feel pretty bad for such Taiwanese restaurant messing it up. After giving it a shot for times, I need to give up the belief that this noodle house is even close enough to serve well-known Taiwanese beef noodles. read more

Tried this place for the first time after they relocated to the larger place. Service is extremely slow, and all the staff members are not attentive at all. You have to ask for tea refills, spices, and placing the food order etc. All personnel are inexperience. We had to wait for more than half an hour for our food to arrive. Several tables seated after us were served before us. Their system of bringing food to your table is kind of random, if the waiter/waitress looks at your order first then you are in luck. They don't follow any system of first in first out. The food was a bit salty, the beef noodle was mediocre with only a few pieces of beef. The fried noodle was very salty and the portion was small. The rice dish with the pork sauce was average, nothing to write home about. I would not frequent this place again unless they make improvements. Everyone is going to this place because they relocated to this new location but I would not recommend it. read more

I was excited to see another Taiwanese eatery open at the site of Noodlelicous that's open 7 days a week, and doesn't close a 2hour break everyday. Had high hopes for their beef noodle soup to be just as good. Edison Noodle House failed to deliver. The menu is marginally expanded to include fried rice and stirfried noodle/rice cake dishes, and some "dim sum" items, but everything was pretty much average, if not below average. We all ordered hot tea, but it was not hot, nor did it taste like tea. Below are the food items we ordered: - Xiao Long Bao (soup buns) - two of our buns were broken, and the juices were leaking out into the steamer before we even touched it...didn't taste like homemade though - Scallion Pancake - too thin, too crispy, and bland, also didn't taste fresh. Didn't come with any dipping sauce either, so we got some soy sauce - Beef Noodle Soup - noodles were thin, meat was chewy and not tender - Taiwanese Stirfried Rice Noodles (mi fen) - looked more like clear vermicelli than rice noodles, bland - Beef Fried Rice - typical fried rice dish, lacking in flavor as well General theme we noticed was the food did not come out hot, everything was pretty much luke warm. Items were slightly over-priced for the quantity and quality, we were disappointed. Side note: they have a 10% off coupon for $20+ if you pay with cash; the coupons are in the free Chinese magazines/newspapers in front of the asian markets read more

I've been here once and would LOVE to go back. We ordered a scallion pancake, pork steamed buns, stir fried rice cakes with pork and some pork noodle soup (whose name escapes me). I thought it was all really great, with the soup having among the more flavorful, satisfying broths I've ever tasted. The stir fried rice cakes were delicious too, I loved how chewy they were. In that vein, I loved the noodles in the soup. They are apparently home made, and I could tell. The place isn't fancy, but the food is great and that's all that matters to me. I'm looking forward to my next visit! read more

Edison Noodle House - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

I really loved Noodlelicious, the restaurant that occupied this space before Edison Noodle House. I tried out Edison Noodle House hoping that it would be as good as Noodlelicious and after my first visit I thought it was decent, so a few weeks later I decided to go there again. I won't go back. I don't expect 5 star service in Chinese restaurants: but this place is exceptionally bad. As I tried to get the attention of someone who worked here to solve the issues I had both waitresses were sitting down on their phones. Not once did one of them stop by to check on my table. The food was fine. But the first issue was that there was a fly in my mother's tea. A dead fly floating in her tea. As I said above I tried numerous times to get the attention of one of the waitresses but they were too busy playing on their cell phones. I had to yell out across the restaurant to get someone's attention. Then at the end of our meal it took forever to get boxes to take home and our check. Again playing with the cell phones. I won't be back. The foods not good enough to have to deal with horrible service and the dead fly tea was the kicker. I'll stick to Pho An Dao if I need some noodle soup- and they don't serve fly tea either. read more

ordered delivery through uber eats twice and have picked up as well. the food was consistently good and fast! it's a great go-to when you want soup & noodles, made fresh! read more

I ordered the Very good beef noodle. The taste was Taiwan style. The beef 金錢腱 was the best kind of beef for Taiwanese beef noodle. Both meat and noodle portions were huge. I took more than half of my beef noodle home for my dinner meal. My wife ordered 榨醬麵, she also liked it very much. It had a lot of veg and tasty meat sauce. Again, it was a large bowl, enough for two meals. The appetizer price was a little high. I would give them five stars if their beef is a little bit more tender. We will go back again, hopefully getting a less chewy beef. read more

(Is it time to update my review? YES IT IS, an amazing 4 years later lol) -11/17/2018 You're looking for some noodles. You find a place called Edison Noodle House. You scroll down to the reviews to do some research. You're in luck! To get things out of the way, yes, I did put 4 stars--but that's just a rough estimate. If you want good, traditional, beef noodle soup, this place is the place to get it. Stick around for a more holistic analysis. I think people go overboard with ratings on Yelp--the average should be 3 stars, but people go around handing out 5s and 1s all willy nilly. Here's my definition: 5=Amazing 4=Good 3=Average/To be Expected 2=Bad 1=Please Avoid. If I were to have my way with ratings, Edison Noodle House would be a solid (7.3/10) 10=AMAZING 9=Great 8=Very Good 7=Good 6=Alright 5=Average/Meh 4=Borderline 3 2 & 1=No go NOW for the actual review... I tend to withhold my opinion on a restaurant or business if I haven't visited at least twice. This is to help ensure that my experience isn't just a fluke. I've visited Edison Noodle House over once and then more frequently recently, and I must say that the Taiwanese Braised Beef Noodle Soup is excellent. As was mentioned by other reviewers, this place's specialty is the beef noodle soup. It's hearty, full flavored, and the beef is well cooked and delectable. The noodles are stretched and cut by hand, and the owners are very nice people. Coming in at less than $9 per bowl, this is truly a gem. If you come here, ORDER THIS, and put in some extra pickled vegetables if you're adventurous. While I can't attest to the other items being very good (my first experience here with other dishes were best summarized by the sound: mehhhh), I think they've mastered the art of Beef Noodle soup, especially given the price point. Aesthetically, the restaurant is very comfy. Families, and groups of people are sitting around enjoying a good bowl of noodles and chatting. The atmosphere is very comforting, and you can see the owners working and making food, so you know it's as fresh as can be. Just a side note: as a review writer and not even a real food reviewer, we should take into account that people work hard to create restaurants, run them, and make food. The least we can do is to offer a non-biased and fair review. This place receives a 7.3/10 because of the amazing beef noodle soup, the atmosphere, and the amazing value behind their food. I can't give it a higher score due to the fact that there's a decent amount of stuff on the menu that isn't on par with the beef noodle soup. With that in mind, the beef noodle soup they make here certainly stands out from the rest. It's a wonderful concoction of tender beef, soft but firm noodles, and a broth that is oh so comforting. If you've read all the way to this, WOW! You're amazing, and you should send me a friend request. To summarize though, you should definitely give this place a try. read more

Edison Noodle House - Shanghai Stir Fried Noodle. As you can see, it's pretty mehhh. Get the Beef Noodle soup instead! It's so good. - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Without a doubt...this place has the best Taiwanese style beef noodle soup in Edison. You won't be disappointed!

When I think of Asian food establishments on Route 27 (Wonder Seafood, China Bowl, Noodle's Time, Coco, Hmart, Edison Dumpling House) this place stands out as one of the better ones. The pork fried noodles, shanghai fried rice cake, satay beef noodle, soup dumplings, fried rice, and zha jiang mien are some of the items I've enjoyed from here. The noodle with shredded pork and pickle green is too bland for me. You get 5% off if you pay with cash. Something I was only made aware of when I brought my mom on my last visit. Go figure! read more

Just ate here. Food was great. Everything was so fresh. Fish is hard to make properly so you know if it is poor quality. In their case it was awesome. Will definitely be back!!! read more

We always liked the food at this place but service is unbelievably poor at times. Place is not even full but wait times are ridiculous. This place could be so much better. read more

Excellent food and service!!! Very affordable and fresh. Been going here for years and never had a bad /negative visit.

This is the new version, I believe under new management. The inside looks exactly the same, menu is really similar too. Food is good, I usually get the beef noodle soup with sour cabbage. Flavorful broth, noodle has good consistency, food comes out super fast. Come here if you are craving warm brothy noodles and are crunch for time. They also have some Chinese appetizers that are premade. You can actually see the dishes in a refrigerator by the tables. They're decent, but a bit pricey for the portion you get imho read more

Two and half star if I could. Some of them were good and for the rest it like I just got robbed. The portion so tiny but if ok for there. I ordered Jelly fish but it full of slice cucumbers just little bit jelly fish. And order pig ear also full of slice black tofu!!! Taste it good but don't be skim on your ingredients. read more

And a little place in a little house. They don't speak a lick of English, the place is a little dirty, but the noodles are really really good! The scallion pancakes were especially superb. It would get four or five stars,except for the dinginess atmospherically. Will probably go back l, though. The prices were excellent really cheap, read more

Edison Noodle House - Eating veggie noodles - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

A small family-owned type of place. We used to go when it first opened under different management, when the service was fast and the soup tastey. Went there today for lunch. It was about almost 2:00pm. There was 1 server, who didn't seem so enthusiastic about serving us. Busied herself with clearing off a table (we were the only other couple eating) and we had to ask to order. Ordered traditional taiwanese beef noodle soups, which came rather quickly. The bowl was very large, with a generous amount of noodles (i thought excessive) and soup. Decent amount of soft beef. The soup was not as flavorful as we expected, rather bland. I couldn't finish my dish and left about 3 cups of noodles in the bowl, i wasn't at all tempted to bring it home. Won't be returning... read more

Positives: Beef noodle soup was good. Large bowl with lots of noodles and good portions of meat. Negatives: I have family that sells these steamed soup dumplings frozen and bagged. These are literally the same thing. I'm willing to bet top dollar it's the same exact frozen bagged ones I used to have in my freezer. The egg pancake was not very good. The egg was burned and the dough wasn't crispy enough for my personal taste. The prices are cheap and it's a fun once-in-awhile place if it's cold enough. read more

Everything aside from the beef noodle soup is ass. The soup dumplings taste like it came from the supermarket frozen aisle. The rice dishes are terrible. The Taiwanese sausage is dry tasteless and has a funky smell. Beef noodle soup is ok tho. read more

The restaurant recently moved into a newly renovated and much bigger space. The only reason the restaurant gets a star is there is no choice to give zero. Be aware! Super sneaky and full of lies. A live steam fish is promoted but turns out to be dead fish. The waitress lies left and right, shameless. Can't believe they can survive this kind of competitive environment. The waitress admitted she lied and deducted $10 from the total bill. read more

Best place for Taiwanese style Chinese food. Much better than your typical Chinese take out place.

I was so excited to try this place. Today was my first and last experience there. We just left with our food half eaten because the meat inside the steamed pork buns was raw. RAW. Pink and nervy and RAW. Both of us ate one before we noticed and are really hoping we don't get sick. read more

This place is much better than the one before! I love the beef noodle soup. Both beef and noodles are chewy and freshly made everyday. I come to this place for lunch at least once a week and I have come here at least 5+ times since it's open. The owner is extremely friendly. Besides signature beef noodle soup, I would also recommend the egg pancake and noodles with soybean paste. read more

I have gone to this place a few times in the past year whenever I need a beef noodle fix. Overall this place is great for a few of their items. The beef noodle dish is in my opinion their best dish. They already have a limited menu so make sure you know that coming in. I wish they would have more but if you are going to only do one thing, you have to do that really well in the business world. They do accomplish that task with their Taiwanese beef noodle dish. It is a great little find in the area but there's a lot of competition in the area, so I hope they can stay alive amongst the competition. read more

My sister and her family come here often and rave about the noodles here. It was my first time. There really isn't much Taiwanese cuisine where I live so this was a real treat. The beef noodle soup was delicious. I also really enjoyed their Taiwanese style side dishes. I would definitely come back here again next time I'm in New Jersey! read more

Tried this place for the first time after it changed from Noodlicious to Edison Noodle House. There are more varieties on the menu than it has when it was Noodlicious but more isn't always better... Everything we ordered, noodles, beef sandwiches, scallion pancake are all okay but nothing was great. We also ordered the soup dumpling; it is not horrible but there aren't much soup inside - there are definitely better ones around Edison area. The portion size are very generous for the noodle. I can eat a lot of noodle but I am more than stuffed after one bowl. Overall, this place is okay if you want a relatively cheap and filling meal. I wanted to like this place more but the quality of food is just a bit lacking. read more

Food is authentic Taiwanese flavor!! The restaurant is clean, and the staff are attentive and nice! Will definitely come again!!

Love eating their authentic Taiwanese pork braised rice, flavorful double fry fish fillet with delicious sauce. Good portion and valued prices. The lady server was friendly and helpful during my order pickup. read more

After maneuvering our way in and out of the doors of the over packed culinary staples of Rt 27 Edison, we found ourselves seated in a quaint, but noisey noodle house, with mediocre expectations. A half hour and a braised beef noodle soup later, I would come to realize that this was no ordinary noodle house, this was a special place. I will leave it to you to experience this magic for yourself, with a couple of tips. 1. Get the soup 2. Refer to step 1 It's a noodle house duhh!! read more

I used to think only their beef noodle are good and hesitate to try others . However, recently I found out that their pan fired dishes are good too. read more

My nephew, who is 12, and I went to this place. I had been there before and I wanted him to experience it. We always try out new places as my theory is to get kids trying out all kinds of food, so when they are adults, they can be worldly and not be surprised and open to trying new things. We ordered the Okra, and a beef noodle and a chicken noodle soup (chicken was a substitute for pork). We were overall impressed with their timelines, freshness of the food. The Okra was out of this world. Steamed, fresh, cooked to perfection with (i think hosin sauce on it ?). The Soups were very good. We both decided that we'd come back again. I was really glad that he was able to experience a little different kind of cuisine from the orient. Areas of improvement - environment - having a Chinese movie on, and the whole staff immersed in it, is not great. Staff who can communicate in english would be a help; we need at least 1 translator in such an enterprise. We'll both go back there, with a larger group ! read more

We finally gave it a try, every time we passed by the restaurant was always busy from outside. It's a traditional noodle house. They don't have a lot of vegetarian or vegan options. I had vegetable noddle soup. It's nice but would prefer they put bokchoy instead of cabbage. And tofu would be nice to add as well. I have to put some chili oil to give a little spicy and more tasty. The noodle is delicious, I think it's a homemade. Staffs are helpful! Will be back, I hope they put more vegetarian and vegan options. read more

Overall quality of food has gone down on our take out order. For example, the Braised noodle soup did not look like the previous reviewed photos. They were a few thin strips of beef with our two orders. Thanks for a disappointing meal. read more

Very disappointed with this place. I tried using Groupon and was told by a waiter that the owner said I had to spend $50 and pay cash only. This was not noted anywhere when I purchased the Groupon. I asked to speak with the owner and was told she was not there. The waiter apologized and said he has to do what the owner said. Very shady!!! read more

I don't write reviews often but thought for this occasion it would be necessary. My aunt, brother and I stumbled upon this place while trying to find new places to eat locally. Upon arrival, we were recommended the beef braised noodle soup. It's safe to say we have been back on several occasions after that and can't get enough. The noodles are fresh, the broth rich in flavor, and the beef is incredibly tender. Great portion, great meal, and great value. Recommend giving this place a shot and ordering the same! read more

The food was just disappointing in so many ways. Despite the good appearance, the food they served was not that good. The service was slow, and their most popular items was not tasty at all. If all I had to eat was this junk, I rather starve. But the atmosphere was fair. All in all, it was a poor experience for both me and my mom over there. read more

Revamped and at a new location. Went on a Good Friday lunch time and they weren't expecting anything other than a few customers. Lack of help had the two servers/busboys and cashiers doing everything they could to hold it together. The food was decent and priced reasonably but lacked identity. Shanghai Noodle is much better read more
