Stopped by for a UB40 concert and grabbed a quick dinner - shrimp pad Thai per the cashiers recommendation. Food was hot and very flavorful! Was it traditional Pad Thai? No. Was it good? Yes!! Seafood shrimps were somewhat on the smaller side, but they added plenty of them. For $20 I would say this was a slam dunk! Service was friendly and quick! Restaurant was very clean. Great seating with tables inside and outside, as well as counter top seating at the bar area that overlooks the line preparing the food. Pro tip: they only serve pop and beer. So if you want wine with your meal, you have to get it from another place inside the casino and they allow you to bring it into the restaurant. read more

I understand I'm not a Platinum or Infinity Viejas Players Rewards Member, nor do I expect any special treatment or preferential service. However, I do expect a restaurant to provide reasonable and accurate expectations for takeout orders. If the kitchen is experiencing unusually long wait times, cashiers should communicate realistic pickup estimates rather than quote times they cannot meet. On this particular Saturday evening, we placed a takeout order at Ginger Noodle Bar at 7:50 PM. Our cashier, Cheryl, advised us that our order would be ready in approximately 15 minutes. Unfortunately, our food was not available until 8:35 PM--about 30 minutes beyond the promised pickup time. The experience became even more frustrating as we stood at the pickup counter waiting for our order, repeatedly asking whether the dishes coming out of the kitchen belonged to us. When our food finally arrived, it was placed in the designated pickup area without anyone notifying us, despite us and another couple standing there clearly waiting for delayed orders. This lack of communication added unnecessarily to the frustration, especially since we were missing the live band performance on the opposite side of the casino while waiting. To be fair, the food itself was exactly as expected. We ordered the Bo Luc Lac and Kung Pao Chicken, and both dishes were served hot, fresh, flavorful, and properly prepared. The order was complete with plenty of napkins, chopsticks, utensils, and fortune cookies. Unfortunately, good food alone could not make up for the excessive wait time and poor communication surrounding our pickup. We ordered takeout expecting to enjoy our meal while taking in the casino's entertainment, but instead spent nearly 45 minutes waiting for food that was promised in 15. Because of this experience, I find it difficult to give a stronger recommendation, and future guests ordering takeout should be prepared for the possibility that quoted pickup times may not accurately reflect actual wait times. read more

This restaurant is located in the Viejas casino , however, the restaurant had a long line and it took a bit to sit down. Once we ordered the food and received it the egg rolls were just ok and the noodles. Cafeteria vibes. Everything is made fresh to order and they have plenty of seating .. read more

First time here and we were not disappointed. It's more of a food court style restaurant not a full service sit down. You order at the front counter. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Our food was very good. I will visit again soon! read more

Came here for a late lunch/early dinner. We places our order at the counter and they gave is a number to put on our table. We had the wonton noodle soup which had a very tasty broth with lots of vegetables, which I like. The spicy thai fried rice was spicy for me but my mom loved it. The egg rolls were crunchy and very good. read more

Ate lunch here today since we had this group tour at Viejas. The stars are for the friendly service and clean place to sit down and eat. The food is forgettable and it's sad because that's my kind of food. I ordered the Vegetable Egg Roll ($8) which comes out as 4 egg rolls with sweet chili dipping sauce. Egg rolls came quickly cooked alright, but the veggies are thinly sliced which is bland. The chili dipping sauce didn't help either. The Pork Adobo which comes with a cup of rice ($16) looked tasty and the serving was huge! That's about it. The meat was tender but a lot of fat and oh wow...that's not the pork adobo I know. Just a very disappointing lunch. Yeah, didn't finish it. I got a $10 discount and some other discount from the members card, I still paid $12. They give you a free small bottled water. Order and pay 1st at the entrance before being seated. If dining, eat at the outlet food stalls. They got discount coupons available at the service center. read more

This was an unexpected surprise! We dipped in for a late night snack after a concert and opted for a shared dish of won ton noodle soup and some veggie rolls - we were not disappointed. The venue was located inside of the Viejas Casino and while there was a line to get in, the wait was not long at all. You order at the cashier's booth, seated, and your food is brought to you. The restaurant was abuzz with kitchen noises: shuffling of pots and pans and cozy steam coming from the kitchen suggesting the food is made on the spot. Our soup could not have been more satisfying - the broth was savory, the veggies still had some crunch, and portion was substantial- no skimping of anything! We both managed two servings each with generous portions of wonton AND noodles that tasted home made. Even though it was late the restaurant was busy and staff were helpful! Definitely a place to keep in mind if I visit again. read more

The new cooks are trash. You would think that if you busy you would not keep everything on the fire so long. Everything is overcooked but they busy. The food was way better before. The increase in price is not yeilding a better meal. I like it better when the cooks didn't go from restaurant to restaurant. Medium rare is ok. please cook it to the liking of the customer. Well done hurts going down. read more

The only Asian food available inside Viejas Casino. It's not bad, but not the best either. It's a great place to eat if you're craving that Asian flavor up here in alpine. The service is excellent, they take your order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. It's a great grab and go place. Definitely bring someone to eat with here since the portions are family style. read more

The service was a bit slow during a time the restaurant was not very busy. The fried rice was fair at best. I have had better. The Vietnamese Spring Rolls were not good at all. The meat used in the fried rice and spring rolls was a bit tough. There is a 15% discount for veterans with a Viejas Heroes Club card, available to all U.S. military veterans.

There's a wait to get in. Not long but a small line. Went here on a Saturday afternoon. The cashier was a nice lady who was patient and helped us out with questions. You order at the register, and sit yourself type of small restaurant. Once you order, they just drop off the food. That's it. No one will come to your table, if you need anything just get up and ask the counter. The food came out about 5-10mins. The plate was smaller than expected. Not a lot of vegetables. Simple and plain. Not much too it. Other than the food being okay, service was mediocre. We left a tip of course prior to even getting additional service. Tip is for the folks that come bring the food and clean up the table. Side note: first time here and I won! Beginner's luck :) read more

I just got the Spicy Thai fried rice to go and it was bland and tasteless. Talk about a disappointment.

We ordered the General Tso chicken to go and took it to our room, it was drenched in sauce and fatty pieces of chicken, I ate a couple of pieces and found it to be disgusting, we were too tired to take it back. I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Ginger Noodle Bar - Drunken Noodle - Asian Fusion Near Me - Alpine, California

I'm gonna be honest about this place. Its somewhat of a fusion restaurant. I just not a fan of Fusion any eatery due to the confusion of what is really their styles. So with that being said, I truely love their services its above and beyond. Ambiance is super busy from the time they opened to closing. It more of a to go dining experience which means seating are limited. But, it do clean it up pretty fast due to the foot traffic. Food overall is mediocre, fried noodles dishes are bland, not enough meat for the price. Although I do love their wonton noodles soup, and their congee with pork and ancient old eggs. Ribs kalbie is a must try, one of the most flavorful dishes. Others are a hit or miss.. But do give them a try. read more

We had a smorgasbord of Chinese Food at the Ginger Noodle Bar this Labor Day Weekend!!! We started by being greeted at the register by a helpful lady who took our order. We thought that we would have General Tso's Chicken and Beef and Broccoli, plus Vegetable Egg Rolls, Yang Chow Fried Rice with Shrimp; and also a side of Noodles. Gonzalo also got a specialty soup, which had tree branches coming out of it. He had it last time and loved it!!! We were sat at the same table as last time, and again they pushed two tables together because of all of the food. It was all delicious and so much that we had plenty of leftovers, which is what we wanted. We each got a complimentary water, and I got a Diet Pepsi. I was also able to get us 10% off with Viejas Bonus Points. read more

Definitely great place to try different types of Asian food. As an American Asian Pacific Islander Filipina - their menu has BBQ chicken skewers, lumpia & pork adobo. The lumpia & skewers were okay. The pork adobo is bomb! Just like my family makes, a bug serving with pepper corns, fatty pieces of pork with a soy sauce vinegar base. The only thing missing is the bay leaves to pick out. MASARAP NAMAN! The only comment about the adobo is they don't have chicken. Anyhow, the service is excellent. Staff are always on it with serving the food hot & fast. The place is always clean. Sleek in variations of wood, individual & family style seating. If you shopping at Viejas & have a hankering for Asian food - definitely should stop in. read more

Drunken noodles was really good. Yummmy. The congee was really good too. Me and my significant other was satisfied

I am really having mixed feelings about our most recent experience here. So here is the good Really love love love the food! Everything always tastes so delish!! The pork adobo and kung pao chicken is fire! One order of pho bo was plenty for two. The staff is very friendly! The food is served quickly and hot! Now the not so good Highly disappointed about the lack of cleanliness! I really wished I hadn't looked down. There was food all over the floor that wasn't ours. I tried to not let it dampen our dinner but I did take a photo which I am sharing here. Once again 5 stars for tasty food and good service. 1 star because of the lack of cleanliness.

Ginger Noodle Bar - Don't look down ...@ Ginger Noodle Restaurant at Viejas Casino & Resort - Asian Fusion Near Me - Alpine, California

Came here at 5:30pm on a Saturday. 20 min wait. There's two registers. We knew what we wanted to order while we were in line, which made our check out so much quicker when we got to the counter. While the couple before us was still deciding on what to order when they got to the register. Tables are first come first serve and it was packed. There's a line because the tables are full. But once we sat down, it took 10 mins to get our food. We got beef pho ($12) and beef Chinese drunken noodles ($15). My fiancé who is very particular with his pho and sensitive to msg, actually enjoyed the pho. He's had it twice here and it was my first time. When the server brought the bowl out, I could smell the aroma. Then I took a sip of the broth and not bad. $12 price point is actually pretty good too. They also give a ton of noodles. It came with limes, bean sprouts and basil. We asked for an empty small bowl so that I could share. On the other hand, the drunken noodles were bland with no flavor. Basically just plain noodles and the chef forgot to add in oyster sauce and spices. I took it home and added spices myself. For water, they give out free mini Viejas water bottles. If you need take out containers, it's on in the corner. Overall, don't come during rush hour if you're hungry. Otherwise, you're expected to wait. Saw a lot of take out orders being prep too. As far as service, it's just the line that's long if it's during rush hour when tables are full. They had 8 people in the kitchen and I think they did a great job keeping up with demand. Just be patient. If you want quick food court food then walk across the street to the outlet. read more

The downside is there's usually a wait, and on Friday or Saturday nights, you can expect 30+ minutes before you even get to order. The plus side? Once you order, the food comes out quickly. Our go-to dishes are the pho and pork adobo. The pork adobo is usually juicy and fall-off-the-bone tender, but lately it's been on the dry side. The ribs are a favorite; definitely order them medium rare if you want them juicy! Overall, the prices are decent for a casino restaurant. read more

I ordered soup -2 appetizers and a main entree the main entree came out immediately by the time we ate it - it was cold not good! The description of the wonton soup with pork & shrimp $16 had no pork no shrimp I questioned that since I often eat wonton soup they said it's inside the wontons? Lacking flavor nothing was as described. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

I Do not recommend this place. My bf and I dined there this past Friday. He ate the seafood pan fried noodles and became very sick from food poisoning. It's Tuesday and he remains sick. His symps includes vomit , the sweats, nausea, cramps, diarrhea, body weakness. A complaint will be filed with the health department. Their Seafood was either old, left out for a long time before being served, wasn't refrigerated properly or all the above. As a result, my partner got bad food poisoning. I had the chicken drunken noodles which was very bland. read more

Mixed veggies with tofu and velvety tender tasty meat with fried rice. Loved it. The Bo Luc Lac remains a favorite since the rib eye is hella good paired with the Yang Chow. Coming in second I like their spring rolls and Kalbi with Kim Chee. Some of the entrees like the Pad Thai which is also good and rices are good for two people. Never had any issues here. Food is always made to order and I always find a place to sit. Leave satisfied and full each time. Mel M Yelp 21:37 read more

This Asian counter service restaurant has great Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Japanese dishes. The food here is very good so it's a popular place. There is usually a line of customers and the line moves fairly slow. So be ready to wait a bit. They will bring the food to your table. The food is worth the wait. Their egg drop soup is the best in San Diego with high quality ingredients . We also tried hot n sour soup which comes in a large bowl. It was delicious with quality ingredients and not overdone with cornstarch. The noodles and short ribs were outstanding with tons of great flavors. We also had the lumpia which was just ok. Prices are very reasonable with a player club card discount. Overall, we love this place and come in every time we come to Viejas Casino. It's a must try place. read more

A little surprisingly since it's at a Casino, exceeded my expectations! Great service, food was lightning fast, and it was TASTY!!!

We took food to go and were so disappointed. Rice was saturated with, what I guess would be soy sauce for the shrimp fried rice...no fresh ingredients... and the Kung Pow Chicken... I don't even know what kind of sauce they used with what I think was chicken... Really poor quality...not what we expected from Viejas Casino read more

So, is it always a given that there has to be a Chinese restaurant in a casino? I have to say, though, I don't mind this place. It's one of the better casino Chinese food I've had. We ended up getting the pan-fried noodles and chicken katsu. Both dishes satisfied my craving, to say the least. I would order them again. If they had 1/2 star ratings, I would've given them 3 1/2 stars for the food. I gave 4 stars, because the lady who took our order was super chipper and made me feel welcome! So, if I don't feel like stuffing myself at the buffet, this is my go to this place. Then, I can get back to gambling quicker. Oh, and if you're a bronze member, you get a discount, so the price point is not too bad. read more

Amazing food it's amazing. Service is amazing so much. Great for families kids. Drinks are amazing too.

Service: The waitress was very kind and accomodating! Place: Tables are tiny and not managed. We choose our own table. Theres 1 guy sitting at a 8 person table, and me and my family (3) had to sit in a tiny table that should really only seat one person. The table was VERY sticky, if you dragged your cup it wouldn't glide, it would stick to the table. Either it's a weird sticky coating/polish, or simply never cleaned properly. Food: It's bland and lacking taste. Needs salt, spices, MSG, maybe sugar would help too. I got a thai tea boba drink for $6, but that's sour and watery. Sour??? That probably means the milk is spoiled. Needs more sugar and milk, but I wouldn't want more spoiled sour milk. The only thing I'd consider delicious is the egg drop soup with wontons. I had to add some soy sauce (cause also watery), but it's comforting. The rest of the savory foods were palatable with sriracha. The ambiance is normal restaurant, but loud and busy. Hard to hear my family who sits next to me. read more

A intriguing option in the newer expanded area inside Viejas casino. There was definitely a lack of express service type meals inside so this is nice to have. Especially family friendly places. Before, we would have to walk across the street to the outlets food court to get something quick and easy. Most of the time we have our daughter in tow, so can't go everywhere inside the casino being that she's under age. We can bring her here, although the question is, will she like anything here? I do the scouting normally first. She hasn't been here yet.. I'm in the process of trying various items to see what they will like on the menu. Haven't been disappointed yet at all. Found at least 2 items she should like. Ramens have been prepared well and the pad thai noodles are a good choice so far. Service has been quick and not so quick, been mostly lucky though. Fast-casual with several Asian themed choices around $10-15. Some appetizers are under $10. Portions are very adequate too. If I'm here long enough, I feel really bad spending too much time(money)- on the casino floor without at least eating something while I'm in here. You don't wanna leave broke AND hangry! read more
