    Kimchi dumplings
    Patricia G.

    Came here on a Friday night around 6pm. It was already pretty full, and by the time we left, people were waiting, so it might be a good idea to make a reservation ahead of time. We were in the area because we were going to the Norton Museum and wanted to fill up beforehand. It's a smaller place, but they have really cool lights that they put on every table, so the environment feels ambient and calming. We were seated right away, however it did take a while for someone to actually come to our table, but on the bright side we were able to figure out what we wanted to eat during that time and put all of our order in at once. We got the kimchi dumplings as an appetizer. I've never had a kimchi dumpling and it seemed very interesting to me because I love kimchi. However, when the dumplings came, the kimchi was grounded into a paste. So it didn't have that nice crunchy kimchi texture that I was expecting, and though a bit spicy, wasnt very flavorful. The dumpling skin was incredibly soft, way too soft, it was falling apart, you couldn't even pick it up. And they were sitting in a layer of water on the plate. Would never order this dish again. For entrees we got the vegetable fried rice without tofu, the panang curry, and the chicken pad thai. The vegetable fried rice was okay, there seemed to be way more vegetables than actual rice, though. And while they were cooked nicely, the pieces of vegetables were huge! Would've been nicer had they been bite size pieces so that you didnt need a knife to eat fried rice. The pad thai was pretty standard. Chicken was incredibly bland and could've used more bean sprouts for that little extra crunch. It did have edamame in it, which is a nice touch, I've never seen that added into a pad thai dish before. The panang curry, also decent, again, the vegetables were just way too huge and certainly needed to be more bite size. You should not need a knife to eat fried rice and curry. We then got the mango sticky rice which we didnt finish. The rice was a little too gummy, and salty. We were not checked on once during the duration of our meal. So had we needed something, we wouldn't have been able to get it without waving someone down. I didn't even bother to look at the prices on the menu before I ordered anything, because it doesn't really matter to me, if I want something I'm going to get it, but I was literally blown away when I saw the bill. Our meal came to $88.49. This is 100% West Palm Beach prices, because the food quality did not at all match what they were charging. Each entree was nearly $20. How is chicken pad thai the same price as vegetable fried rice? I legitimately cannot begin to understand why it was as packed as it was, maybe there aren't a lot of Thai places to choose from in West Palm? While the staff was friendly, although unattentive, I wouldn't recommend this restaurant.

    yam noodles, chicken and shrimp

    We wanted a bite after a long afternoon at the Norton. We were welcomed warmly. The wait Zack was excellent at explaining the menu, unlike the young lady server. The food was ok. Everything is fresh. Our daughter had the pad thai; it was pretty ordinary. My husband had mixed seafood and meats with noodles ( think). I had the yam noodles with chicken and shrimp. The shrimp was done just right, the chicken lacking; the dish needed spice.

    Chicken ramen noodles

    Went on my work lunch break, around 12:30. Parking lot is small but I was able to find a spot. Restaurant was dark and quiet, even though it was busy. The menu is easy to navigate. The staff were friendly. I ordered my drink app and entree at once and they brought each item out quickly. I also ordered shrimp steamed dumplings, not pictured, which came in a set of 4 and I could have eaten 20 lol. My entree, pictured, was the chicken ramen noodles, very yummy and filling - ended up saving 1/2 to bring home as leftovers. Overall very good. Would go back!

    Cool spot with great food. The service was on point as multiple wait staff checked in on the table throughout the dining experience. The spot is tastefully decorated and I'll definitely be back for me.

    First time visiting Joy Needle. I know it's been a gem here in downtown Palm Beach. My favorite cuisine sis not disappoint. Tried the kimchi dumplings for the win. Spicy and delicious. Shrimp tempura roll fried perfectly and paired with sweet dipping sauce. A lover of Crepes, had to try their vanilla crepe cake. It was light, fluffy and not too sweet. Loved it all. Will be back Joy!

    Crispy Crab Rangoon (?)
    Michael M.

    We were looking for something to eat while in the area and found this spot close by. Situated right off Dixie, with no big signs in front (or back) to announce their presence but pretty decent food. We walked in, got greeted right away, sat down and started checking out the menu. It's a strange amalgamation of Asian food styles, with sushi apparently being the latest addition. Most prices are good, sushi is wildly overpriced. We started out with a couple of interesting sounding appetizers. - Crab Rangoon was woefully bereft of anything resembling crab (no taste, no smell, no sight) but full of... CORN? it was very yummy! Good, but should be called Corn Rangoon, and it was served with a thin sweet watery dipping sauce. - Fried Leek Dumplings were just okay , fried crispy, and served with soy sauce. For dinner the lovely Spensyr had a bowl of Chiangmai noodle soup with assorted meats, which was filling and a little on the spicy side; while I had 2 more appetizers. - Javanese chicken was served with a coconut curry sauce and a side of sweet cold noodles. - Thai fritters, which were tempura fried slices of cooked sweet potato and yam, accompanied by the same thin dipping sauce as the Rangoon. Everything was good enough to make us finish it, but nothing was great enough to make us wanna come back.

    We have never experienced a bad meal or service at Joy Noodle! The food options are amazing , Fresh and fairly priced. Our waiter Zachery was outstanding!

The vodka and the sake in the lychee martini didn't go to well or it was just a bad mix that day. But I was not a fan of the drink. The yamazaki swinger was very watered down and we barely tasted the whiskey. The Lua Pele Scorpion bowl wasn't much of a show and while the drink did taste good, it was mostly filled with decorations. It's supposed to serve 2-4 people but after we took all the decorations out and poured the drink into a cup, it was barely a full cup. I'll definitely give it a try again as I'm not sure how the food was and maybe it was just an off day for the bartender.

At $38.99 per person before drinks, this is not an inexpensive meal. The food was average and didn't stand out enough to justify the price. The conveyor belt filled with vegetables, noodles, and other ingredients is visually appealing, but I noticed the items were left uncovered as they circulated throughout the dining room. While the presentation looks nice, it raised concerns for me about exposure within a busy restaurant environment. The biggest issue, however, was the overall atmosphere. During both visits, there was a noticeable mildew-like odor throughout the restaurant. I also noticed smells that appeared to be coming from cleaning products and nearby restrooms, which took away from the dining experience. After giving this restaurant two opportunities, I can confidently say I won't be returning. The concept is interesting, but the average food quality, pricing, and overall dining environment did not meet my expectations. I'm new to Florida and hopeful there are better hot pot restaurants in the area.
