2/14/26 My husband and I stopped at I Love Noods for lunch on Valentine's Day and were seriously impressed from start to finish. The whole concept is incredibly efficient; you place and pay for your order at a kiosk, watch your food being prepared right in front of you, grab it when it's ready, and clear your own dishes when you're done. The system runs smoothly and keeps everything moving fast without feeling rushed. Our food came out in under 10 minutes and was hot and delicious. We ordered the Curry Bomb Tonkotsu along with soup dumplings and shrimp dumplings. Everything was fresh, and packed with flavor. We like a little extra heat, so we added chili oil to the soup and it took it to the perfect spice level for us. Quick service, great quality, and a fun, modern dining experience. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town. It's also the perfect stop before heading over to explore Jungle Jim's International Market next door. Easy 10/10. read more

I got the tonkatsu w/ a side of karrage. The service was great but the food was lacking some major flavor. If you've ever been to a ramen spot you'd be disappointed here. You could tell the broth wasn't marinated enough and the karrage didn't have much taste and was pretty oily. read more

Ordered soups dumplings, pho, & spicy tonkatsu ramen. Noodles were cooked perfectly & broth had good depth of flavors! Self order via kiosk & pick up service. Tables can get dirty if they're too busy but really good food! Deducting a star since bathrooms didnt have paper towels & water all over floor (safety concerns) & no diaper changing station (used bench outside of yogurt shop next door). read more

My wife loves noodles and I Love Noods really made her happy. Our food was prepared well and the service was great.

We have been back a couple of times since my original review. The hiccups of the first time have been corrected and there is even a sign with clear instructions when you enter now. The food is always really good and prepared fresh. The drinks are crafted to perfection. You can tell that the team preparing the items cares about the quality. This is a new favorite spot and we will definitely be back! read more

12/21/24. Getting lunch around Eastgate/Jungle Jim's on the weekend before Christmas can be stressful, but this place ruled. Great ordering system with kiosks/table numbers for quick and efficient service. I eat a lot of Ramen and this spicy miso bowl was incredibly flavorful and loved how the roast pork was cooked in it. The soup dumplings were great as well. read more

I have to say that I am so stoked that I love noods have come to the Eastgate area! There are so many fast food establishments in this area and not enough unique and mom and pop type of restaurants. Anywho, came here last night for dinner with a friend and we really enjoyed ourselves. My friend ordered the pho and I ordered the ramen. We're Vietnamese so I would say it looks as though the pho is actually very good. Very happy to say that I no longer have to drive 25 minutes for a bowl of pho! As for the ramen - The ramen was good but it's nothing amazing like I had in Japan lol but that's comparing apples to oranges obviously... But the ramen is still good and I would definitely come back here for that as well. I will be taking my husband here for dinner in the near future! read more

I'm vegetarian and it is hard for me to find a good vegetarian ramen. Until I Love Noods. Their Mi-So Zen is now my favorite, I also love their egg yolk & pumpkin bao . Great milk tea and other drinks. I haven't dine-in but take out have been a breeze and always correct. The food still hot even after they get home. I went in to order from their self-ordering station once and the place looks nice also. One day I will try dining in. But for now I like what they are offering. Hope for more vegetarian options in the future on your appetizer/dim sum menu. read more

This place is our new favorite ramen spot in Cincinnati. The black garlic tonkotsu is amazing (both regular and spicy). The mi-so-hungry ramen bowl is also very good. The ambience is cool and every time we've been for dinner on the weekend - it's busy but not overly crowded. You get your food fairly quickly (max we've waited is about 10 min). Services is excellent. Highly recommend trying out. read more

Very yummy spot! First time trying ramen and I got the black Garlic Tonkotsu and my fiancé got the Pho ( not sure which one), we also split the soup dumplings! It was all very good and we did not wait long for our food. Highly recommend the strawberry and pineapple milk bubble tea! The place is very nice inside and the wall art is beautiful. My only downside is I feel like it's a bit pricey but what isn't now a days. read more

My favorite place, This is a very nice restaurant. Great service, great value. The food was good! We will definitely be back!

Great pho! The soup dumplings were good too. Weird that they don't have Vietnamese spring rolls, but otherwise it's very solid fresh food!!! You can get plain pho broth. They have lots of ramen too. read more

The food was pretty good. Not close to the best ramen I have had but good enough to maybe get rid of a craving for it. I would steer clear of the buns. read more

Really delicious dim sum. We went here after a long trip to Jungle Jim's and were really happy with the service and quality of food. Prices were a little high for the quantity but it was yummy! read more

Been meaning to try for weeks and finally stopped in for lunch. So good! Tokyo Shoyu with chicken was very flavorful and filling. Lot of emphasis on pork and many of their dishes which I'll try next time! Easy ordering at kiosk and not crowded at 1 pm on a Tuesday read more

This was an unplanned stop for me but I walked around jungle Jim's for too long and got really hungry. Glad I decided to stop here (despite the many choices within a stones throw). I'd say it's definitely better than a lot of the ramen places around, and they keep their prices down by utilizing self ordering, a pickup counter, and self clean up. Plus they have allll the extra toppings/sauces available either up front or at your table and forks and to-go bowls available at the counter so you don't even have to ask. I just got the spicy tonkotosu ramen but wld go back to try other things, maybe. The ramen was reallllly good. Spicier than other ramen I've had but absolutely delicious and not overpowering, though there was also hoisin at the table if you wanted to sweeten it up. The portion was generous and I had some to take home (and I was starving). Though, I wish I'd really taken to read the sign that says cups are for water and soda so that I didn't spend $3 for a soda when I really just wanted a drink of water. read more

Absolutely love the food and the personable gentleman that works behind the counter five stars cross the board! DELICIOUS!!

its Easy to order from the kiosks. The ramen and all the food was amazing. It was clean and the staff were friendly. fast service despite being really busy at lunch time. The food was really outstanding. read more

We tired I Love Noods after visiting Jungle Jim's and was not disappointed! I grew up in Japan, so it's always great when I can find good ramen. We tried the Black Garlic Tonkotsu and it was so good! Service was great and fast. read more

I got the pork dumplings and they were nice and crispy on the outside. The tonkotsu ramen was really good as well but just a tad salty. The pineapple boba was my desert and it was so good. read more

I am dishearted to write a not pleasant review. I just hope to spare someone else the experience I have had. I ordered the seafood pho while very tasty. About 1/2 way through my meal I discovered a deceased larva floating in my bowl. I imd stopped eating and left the establishment. Within a couple days I was having severe stomach pains and gastro issues. I am aware mistakes can be made but a bug and food poisoning seems more then a little oversight. read more

I always go to tsaocha for boba tea, one day I found this place and I want give it a try. I ordered pho and boba tea. Pho was good but tapioca tasted like leftover from yesterday. I'm so disappointed. read more

Not too shabby for a chain restaurant. Ordering was super easy and the food was great! Excellent takeout packaging!

Love this place. Great boba tea. Great ramen and pho. Ok dumplings. If they had bahn mi and goI cuon might be here every few days LOL And to the 1 star review that said the place was bad because the egg must have been sitting because it was dark - when you don't know what a soy marinated ramen egg is - don't leave a review. My goodness read more

Service was so quick! Food super yummy. And for those missing hawaii steamed manapua,, this is the place to find it! Super surprised! Thank you for the yummy dim sum read more

The food was delicious and staff were kind. We ordered soup dumplings they were at a great price and tasted awesome, we hope to return to this nice place. read more

I Love Noods has pleasant décoré and ambiance. The establishment is wheel chair friendly, and there are options to order at a kiosk or at the counter. Service was still a little uneven and several items on the menu were out of stock. We ordered the Meat Deluxe Pho, Mi-So-Zen Raman, and Pork Spring Rolls. The Pho was excellent, the Raman was adequate (the bamboo shoots and corn unfortunately tasted very canned) but egg was lovely and gooey. The spring roll was amazing. read more

Good food! I loved the dim sum and the PHO was good, but needed some more flavor to the broth. Website is next to useless though. read more

Loved the Boa Buns! My husband liked the ramen he got. Service was fast and it was pretty busy.

Service has always been decent, not much interaction with the staff during all the visits here. Decor is simple. Now the food. The first time I came here I got two boba drinks here and I did not like it as the green tea gave the drinks a bad after taste. I came her again with a friend and I got the dumplings which are decent. I got this pineapple milk tea and I actually like it. Today I got spontaneous and then tried a boba swirl which wasn't good. And the ramen and it tasted how you think a gorilla habitat smells at the zoo. Long story short this place has few palatable food items and is an acquired taste. read more

The black garlic ramen was a hit! The dumplings were a little small for the $ though.

I'll qualify this review by admitting that we didn't try any ramen or pho dishes. Ordered a selection of six dim sum and appetizers for mom and I to share. I ordered through DoorDash for pickup and the order took a bit longer than expected, but everything was fresh and hot. The chicken karaage was really good - tender and moist chicken , and a nice crunchy breading. Also tried the gyoza, chasu bao, pork soup dumplings, pork and shrimp shumai, and veggie spring rolls. They were all nicely prepared but just lacking in flavor and salt. I'd definitely like to come back and try the ramen, pho and a bubble tea. read more

The meal was pretty good at the time of eating. The next morning I woke up sick. I ended up in the hospital with a severe case of food poisoning. I don't usually give reviews but I was absolutely in a bad way. I posted this as it was the only thing I ate that day and pretty sure it was this restaurant. read more

The food is ok and to me tasted bland. However the boba is amazing I would recommend the boba. The service was good and quick. Ambience was good and had anime playing however the anime had no sounds. read more

Food, service, and ambiance. Few more thoughts to post review, due to Yelp rule that 85 characters are required.

Everything is just so good I can't stop thinking about it! The one thing I was worried about when moving to the eastside was lack of food diversity! This KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK! read more
