    Triple Beef
    Fanming J.

    This was my go-to childhood comfort food. They offer a selection of dishes--rice, barbecue, and their signature noodles. The noodles have a great bite--not too chewy and not too soft. The soup is rich in flavour and filling. The meat tastes great and has a nice texture. My only complaint is that the meat portions can be disappointing.

    Magic Noodle has been a long time staple in the Scarborough community for their fresh hand pulled noodles, whether it is in a piping hot broth, stir fried, or served with sauce! There is always a noodle master on shift to ensure your noodle is made however you prefer , whether it is texture wise vs length wise. The noodles are always cooked al dente and it does pair well with whichever toppings you prefer from sliced beef to smoked duck breast to even lamb! Always a good time with Magic Noodle!

    A nice little spot that is nestled near Midland & McNicoll. The items on the menu are pretty decent/varied given that it is a 24/7 restaurant spot. As for the employees, they're quite nice when they actually were around, but it was hard to flag them down despite there not being many people. Hoping to see a Magic Noodle promo or something in the future with better prices

    We've been in the area a lot recently and happened to come by Magic Noodles. It's improved quite a bit - cleaner for one thing. Service is so quick here and portions and pricing are good value. I almost always get the Juli Jelly here and the cuttle fish balls. All the noodles are comforting and you can't really go wrong with any of it. Even if you do take-out, I find the quality of the food is still pretty great (and added bonus of convenience). Good solid spot for regular noodle nights!

    I recently came back on a late fri night after badminton once again and this time I decided to try the tomato broth (which was listed as new). I readily admit that I'm not a huge fan of Magic Noodle. It just happens to be open 24 hrs and one of my badminton friends absolutely loves it since he's from Sauga and they don't have Magic Noodle over there. The classic beef broth has always tasted watered down to me and so the noodles sometimes end up tasting bland. The quality of the noods remains the same. I still think they deserve like 3 stars only. However, this tomato broth I had definitely merits an upgrade in score. Up until this point, the best tomato broth I've had at a soup noodle spot was the one at Hey Noodles. I think this tomato broth might just have one-upped and dethroned it. There was a lot more complexity and layering to this broth. Also, idk if the chef was feeling better that day or if it was just inconsistency but I actually received a surprisingly SOLID amount of beef chunks in my bowl so it actually felt worth it. One thing that IS very good at Magic Noodle is the tofu skewers. They're incredible. Especially the bbq sauce they slather the skewers in. I ordered one skewer of bbq squid tentacles. Never again. They were a rip off (the skewer had tentacles on 1/3 of the stick). The other thing I'd like to mention is that we didn't know that Magic Noodle has unlimited nood refills. Apparently the waitress informed us that they implemented it but didn't advertise it so not many ppl know about the free noodle refills.

    Love this place for noodles. Kids love it too - especially watching the noodle-making. The tea eggs are delicious and flavourful. The noodles perfectly chewy. We got the popcorn chicken and it was crispy but not dry. However the chicken and noodles was a bit on the dry side. Dry noodles with pork was very nice.

    If you're craving for noodles, this is the place to go! I've tried so many different kinds of their noodles including the magic, beef brisket, golden seafood, and signature friar and they're all consistently good! You have the option to choose the thickness of your noodles. As well as adding extra noodles food free. They have chilli oil on the table if you want extra favors. Highly recommend if tire in the mood for noodles!! P.s if you order through online in their website, you can collect points!

    Came for breakfast for a filling meal before driving back to the US. Selected this place as it was open early and offered the full menu. Restaurant was empty, and the food came out quickly. Noodles were good, fairly in line with the other Magic Noodle locations. Expected a bit more flavor in the broth but it did get a bit better towards the end (either that or I just got used to it). Generous amount of meat Lots of parking available as it's in a strip mall.

    Tomato beef noodle with triangle noodles
    Jeff K.

    Pretty ok. Got the tomato beef noodle with the triangle noodles, hot and dry noodles and the seaweed salad. Tomato beef noodles were ok. Nothing special about them. The broth was a light tomato taste with a slight sweetness to it but really lacked flavour. Beef was 50% gristle and 50% meat but at least it was tender. The flavour was meaty but fairly standard. Lastly the triangle noodles were interesting and abundant but not really my type of noodle. My wife enjoyed the triangle shaped noodles a lot though. 3/5 Hot and dry noodles was my favourite of what we got but was neither hot nor dry. It had a nice creamy peanut sauce but was one dimensional. Wish it had more pickled vegetables or cucumber to break up the texture because it was basically 95% noodle, 4% meat and 1% everything else. Even after adding the chilli oil on the table it wasn't spicy at all. 4/5 has potential. Seaweed salad was pretty decent but nothing to write home about. Mostly there for texture, it had a nice sesame oil taste to it. It was nice to break up the heavy noodle texture from the whole meal. Would probably be really good with beer too. 4/5 Overall I'd give it 3.5/5 for a quick meal. It's open 24/7 and the copywriter definitely had a lot of fun making the menu. Definitely not a destination restaurant but good if you're in the area and craving thick and chewy noodles.

    I got the Red Splash. Noodles was fresh and bouncy and well seasoned. Price is unbeatable at $9.99. Will come back to try other items.

    December 29, 2023 - late night dinner with friends. The service is always fast. It does get a bit noisy but it is what it is. It's also nice to see that they make the noodles fresh. I ordered the Hot and Dry noodles, I love the nutty creamy sauce. It wasn't spicy for me but had lots of flavours. My friends also enjoyed their food. Prices are affordable and love that they are open late. Definitely worth it.

    Smoked Duck
    Michelle L.

    Continuing on my soup kick in the colder weather, I was highly recommended this place by a family member. The first thing that I noticed was that this place is 24 hours! Pretty good sign that it's always busy. A TV on the wall was looping an episode where the Cantomando guys (that's their social media channel) tried their hand at cooking hand made noodles with a head chef from the restaurant. The area that the chef prepares the noodles is open so you might see him kneading and pulling but you'll definitely hear when they're pounding out the noodles! The soup noodles are their signatures but they have other stuff if you're not into soups. I ordered the Triple B which is a classic beef noodle soup kind of deal. It's not intentionally spicy but there is heat. You can select the types of noodle they use and I highly recommend their handmade chewy daoxiao mian! I got to try bites of other dishes and the Smokey Duck and Pot Belly were also delicious. To cap off with dessert, I highly recommend the pumpkin cake. It's chewy and filled with a bean paste on the inside.

    Signature Fryer with beef

    24 hours. Hand pulled noodles? Say no more. Service is quick especially if you call ahead and pick up. Everything is good. My go to orders are the signature Fryer and triple B

The use of traditional elements, paper-cut window designs, red Spring Festival couplets, old-style newspaper wall coverings, and exposed brick adds a strong sense of nostalgia. It feels immersive and intentional, almost like stepping into a countryside home in Dongbei rather than a typical restaurant. The décor isn't fancy, but it's rich in cultural detail and warmth, perfectly matching the hearty, comforting style of Northeast Chinese cuisine. The space is unique and perfect for taking photos. The food here is very generous. We ordered the 4-person set with two side pots. Tomato Braised Beef Brisket and Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms and the portions were huge. Both pots arrived steaming hot and filled to the brim, clearly meant for sharing. The braised beef was rich and hearty, while the chicken pot was comforting and full of flavor, making it perfect for group dining or cold weather meals. Combined with the rustic, traditional décor, it really feels like authentic Northeast Chinese comfort food. The food and atmosphere were excellent, though the service was a bit lacking. Prices are reasonable for the generous portion sizes and the unique restaurant décor.

Everything tasted great. The crab was a little overcooked as the meat stuck to the shell and the steak was a bit under and more rare than medium rare but everything was delicious.

It is a popular spot for large groups, and next time we may try the steak or crab.

I was hoping to find something special on the menu. The Peking duck caught my eye at around $70, but then I discovered that almost everything else was extra--lettuce wraps, stir-fried duck meat, fried rice, and soup. By the time you add the extras, the bill is easily another $50 or more, bringing the total to well over $120. We decided to pass, and judging from the dishes we did order, that was probably the right decision. The hot and sour soup had plenty of heat and tang but lacked depth of flavor and was under-seasoned for my taste. Fortunately, we only ordered a small bowl. The deep-fried tofu was bland and forgettable. The stir-fried shrimp was acceptable but nothing special. The biggest disappointment was the sweet and sour pork. I specifically asked the server to make sure the pork was crispy, but it arrived soft and lumpy rather than light and crunchy. Even the complimentary red bean dessert soup was watery and lacked flavor. Our bill came to about $104 for two people. For the quality of the food, I didn't feel it offered good value. Sadly, after several disappointing visits, I don't think we'll be returning.

The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.
