Our first time at the Noodle Bowl on South Sherwood, just south of I-12. We have been wanting to come visit for a while. First impressions, is handicap accessibility. Inside the restaurant, it is very spacey. Getting in is a little tighter: there is only a badly marked concrete short ramp leading to a narrow sidewalk. Turning into the main door is a little tight. You have to watch it, but it is not impossible and it's not dangerous. The interior is very simple with clean cut modernIsh furniture. The lighting is also like vintage metal lanterns. They did have two large TVs playing sports events. We heard they served traditional Chinese along with hibachi, Thai, etc. So we definitely went Chinese, hoping for something more authentic than American Chinese fare. As an appetizer, we had the steamed pork dumplings. I had the Lan Zhou beef noodle soup with beef shank, radish, scallions, and cilantro. My companion had the hot and spicy noodle soup with ground pork, bok choy, pickled cabbage, scallions, and peanuts. Dumplings were delicious. And the dipping sauce was thin but wildly flavorful. The Lan Zhou was definitely good. Full of their noodles of which there were MANY and long; some stretched from Baton Rouge to Biloxi. Not really, but a pair of culinary scissors would be helpful. Beef was plentiful, full of taste, and not overcooked. The broth was thin and sooo good. Bok choy was fresh and added a crispy snap to the soup. Fresh radish added crispness and tartness. A single soft boiled egg was nice and contributing to a delicious soup. I would come back just for the Lan Zhou. My companion really enjoyed the hot and spicy ground pork. Definitely spicy and the pork was finely ground. Verdict? Worth a second visit to hopefully find other great dishes among the soups, stir fried noodles, and Hibachi. Give it a try! We will. read more

The closest and best thing to authentic Chinese food in Baton Rouge. Not without its flaws, but it really does make me reminiscent of New York City chinatowns. Service is good, and food seems made to order, but food does come out in odd intervals instead of people getting their food at the same time. Kinda funny that the default utensil is a fork and not chopsticks though. This place has an interesting mix of elements from American, Chinese, Korean, and even Japanese food. So this place is very interesting because they mix elements of American and Korean and even Japanese into the food here. Definitely the most authentic Chinese, Cantonese, spot Baton Rouge has seen though not every item is authentic in the menu. Really reminds me of China town, although not perfect, but it's there. Service was great, they made sure our drinks were full. Kinda funny we had to ask for chopsticks though since the default utensil was forks. Had the spicy fried pork, which was basically the Chinese-Korean tangsuyuk, but only missing the sweet and sour sauce. It was well fried, crispy, and came out piping hot. Covered with a bunch of diced peppers, and was quite affordable for $8. Would like it to be spicier though. The spicy beef salad, which was liangban niurou, was quite good and eaten cold and is a good appetizer with a large portion for $8. Extremely good deal. Also would've liked this to be spicier. Rolled beef, which was jiangbing, was also decent and well worth the price of $8 for the large portion. The outside exterior was crisp and textured, but could use some more pickled vegetables or some sort of extra vegetables to contrast and enhance the fillings. They added a hoisin sauce to it and it really elevates the flavor. Also ordered the lan zhou beef noodle soup and knife cut noodles. Both were good, especially the texture of the noodles. While the lab zhou beef noodles were excellent, the knife cut noodles were by far my favorite, as well as more filling and more flavorful. The lan Zhou beef noodle soup, for frame of reference, is the Chinese equivalent to Vietnamese pho, so it's a very clean and light soup. The knife cut noodle soup had a richer flavor, and if you add one scoop of chili oil, it elevates it to another level. The portion size of the noodles in both bowls is generous, with the knife cut noodles being something I would order again and again because of the flavor and how filling it was. Also tried the hibachi here, and you could taste the wok hey flavor on the beef and noodles. Edamame and crab rangoons were okay, nothing special. Xiao long bao were terrible, but maybe they will fix it like they improved on many other items since their opening. read more

Great service and know the menu enough to support customers based off taste and textures. Mr J is an excellent server.... Only white dude who speaks clear English and translates. The food soothes the soul! All fresh! And a full bowl!! You will not go wrong! I highly suggest it from a military standpoint! B8 Shanxi knife noodle .... Great place to start with spice!

Fresh food, clean atmosphere, and great service. Will return!!! Would give 10 stars if that were an option!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch date here! The food was perfect! I ordered the steak and chicken hibachi combo plate with egg fried rice, crab cream wontons, spicy cucumber salad, and spring rolls. My sister ordered the spicy tomato beef brisket noodle soup. The service was exceptional. The waitress was attentive and very friendly. All dishes were 10/10! I will definitely be back. read more

So, we were driving around on Mother's Day trying to find a place that was not packed so we could enjoy a sit-down meal while on our road trip. We stumbled upon Noodle Bowl; the parking lot was not too packed so we settled on this place. Upon entering we were immediately greeted by a young lady who happened to be our waitress. We noticed she was the only one servicing everyone there, now there were about 5 other families dining in at the time, so the service was phenomenal given that she had to juggle everything. We ordered the Hot and Spicy Noodle Soup and the Mongolian Beef Stir-Fry Noodles. The serving sizes are very generous, so much that we thought we would have leftovers but the noodles were so delicious we ate everything! Both our noodle orders were spicy as indicated on the menu; we also noticed that they were hand making the noodles in the kitchen which we thought was cool to see and definitely a plus for the fresh noodles. This place was clean and very modern, my husband and I loved everything about this place, so much so that we may have to take another road trip just to get these noodles. read more

I may have gone on an off day based on the reviews so I'll update if my feelings change on my next visit. The service was great from the gentlemen who filled in after our original waitress went to do another task. But the food didn't match for us. First the pictures don't look like the food that is presented. My hubs noodle dish had no flavor like it was presented on the picture. They had no issues taking it back and he was asked for his feedback on the dish. The hibachi dish was good but the rice was gummy. The chicken wings had very light seasoning. I will return to order different things to see if it was just an off day. read more

Good place to get authentic Chinese food in Baton Rouge. Coming from Seattle it's not the same however it's one of the few places you can get these type of dishes. A little bit oily for the noodles and I wish the hand cut noodles were a bit more chewy and thicker. Overall good flavor and taste, I'd come back. read more

We were so excited to try this place out! It did not disappoint! There were 5 adults and we had a little bit of everything. The soups were very flavorful. Meats are tender and delicious. The hand pulled noodles are just amazing! I highly encourage you to try them. The hibachi plate was huge. The chicken was so tender and flavorful. The rolling beef was new for us and it will def be a regular item we order. Absolutely fantastic! The service was superb, they even package up your leftovers! Such a nice touch. read more

Drove past this place and thought to try it. It opened a few months ago from the summer apparently(?). The menu has the basic Asian dishes like noodle soup, pad Thai, and soup dumplings. However, when we went, they ran out of soup dumplings :(. I wound up getting the beef tomato noodle soup, but it was mid. I feel like there was some flavor lacking. You order at the front desk and they bring it to your table. Free parking in the lot. read more

I was excited to check out this new spot. When I visited for dinner, the AC was unfortunately out, so it was a bit warm inside - but still manageable. I ordered the Lan Zhou Beef Noodle Soup and enjoyed it, especially the flavorful broth. Plus, the noodle was chewy. The service was friendly and attentive. However, it felt like the team was still finding its rhythm. I'm looking forward to seeing how they grow. read more

I'm so glad BR has some newer Asian restaurants. We got the xiao long bao, hot and spicy noodle soup, and tomato beef brisket soup. Everything was tasty. The spicy soup was not an overpowering spice. Just gradual. It's a large portion, and I made 3 meals off it. I will warn you though, the spice gets hotter over time as it marinates. The leftovers were hotter than in the actual restaurant. The restaurant is in the old Podnuh's building, so not glamorous vibes, but service was attentive and friendly. Will be back to try more when in BR. read more

WOW. These are the best noodles I've had in Baton Rouge by far, rivaling some of the ones I've had in California - such a good texture. The soup was really flavorful. Nice people and I got my food in less than 10 minutes. Cool interior design too. Definitely worth a visit. read more

This was my second time this week returning to Noodle Bowl. The food here is quality. Come in early or they might just run out of food. We came in during peak lunch and were immediately welcomed and sat. The manager/owner really cares about all the details of fast service, table touches, and she is always on the look out for anyone that needs anything. I ordered the fried calamari, shrimp and pork wontons (unpictured), shanxi knife sliced noodle soup (if you do not like spicy you will not like this dish) I loved it though, and the lan zhou beef noodle soup (similar to pho). Everything was delicious. I will say our server was a bit flustered and I found myself looking for him often, however it was peak lunchtime. Lastly, wear shorts, it's warm and hot soup will really heat you up. 10/10 would recommend read more

Tried Noodle Bowl on Sherwood Forest today. Loved. The Hibachi chicken and shrimp were perfect. (enough for two people ) The fried dumpling were excellent. The spring rolls were our least favorite. Not much flavor. Definitely will go back to try the noodles and the bowls. Sevice was excellent. Very clean and comfortable read more

*** Poor Soft Opening *** I have to say upfront at this restaurant has only recently opened within the last couple of weeks so they are going through their soft opening and have a lot of adjustments to make. Please keep that in mind when you read my review. First off it's the height of Summer and temperatures outside are 97°, with feel like temperature over 100°. Air conditioning in the dining area was on the warm side and not entirely pleasant to eat in, especially considering that all menu items are hot. I did have a very nice waitress, but I could tell she was new at table service. She checked on me several times which was appreciated. However, once she brought me the menu and I asked her about the various ramen bowls and which one had the more Rich tasting broth, she first suggested the seafood ramen - when I said I wasn't in the mood for seafood today, and asked for another recommendation she then suggested the tomato based ramen with brisket. Now a tomato based ramen is an oddity to me, but I decided to be adventurous and go with what the waitress recommended. I also asked if they had a small side serving of their fried rice to use as an appetizer instead of spring rolls, but they only had a kid size portion of chicken fried rice which is what I ordered. The waitress brought the fried rice first. On the good side the fried rice did have a nice little crunch to it from being on the hibachi grill, but it was a little on the oily side and although generous with the pieces of chicken per the portion size, it contained no egg or vegetables and very bland. The ramen bowl was brought next. The portion size of the bowl was generous (similar to hikari ramen) but everything else with the bowl was just so wrong. The first half inch of what should have been some kind of broth with tomatoes was nothing but oily grease!! I had to ask the waitress to bring me a small bowl with a regular spoon so I could attempt to skim off all the oil floating at the top of the bowl (see attached picture of small bowl nearly full of oil skimmed out of the ramen bowl) - yuck The size of the ramen noodles were a little thick for my personal taste, and the quantity of noodles to broth were a little on the heavy side. Mind you I don't mind a lot of noodles because that's what fills you up, but this was almost as thick as spaghetti noodles. I really only had a few bites of the ramen bowl and took the rest home. Hoping that once it cools in my refrigerator I could skim off the rest of the grease an attempt to at least taste what the broth base was like. With the amount of oil in the liquid, literally all I could taste was grease. The only redeeming quality of this particular tomato/brisket ramen bowl was that the brisket was tender. Now...did they cook the brisket and keep all of the drippings to mix in with the broth? If so, the chef needs develop true noodle broth separately from cooking the meats and learn how to balance seasoning with robust unami flavoring, and not let the grease from whatever protein was cooked overtake the entire noodle bowl. When the waitress came back to bring me the check I DID ask her whether or not she had ever tasted this particular tomato/brisket noodle bowl. She advised that she had not , that she had tasted the seafood ramen and another flavor. Again...this was a pure giveaway that she is new at table service. An experienced waitress would NEVER make a recommendation to a customer of a dish that they had not tasted themselves. However, I blame the management for not properly training their new waitresses AND not having proper menu tastings for all their service staff. I've worked in the hospitality business for years. For a restaurant to truly succeed, ALL wait staff not only need to be trained on how to bring food out and collect money, but they need to have an actual tasting prepared by the chef of EVERY DISH on the menu. Typically this is done on a day that they are closed, or the staff comes in early a couple of hours before the restaurant opens with the chef having prepared some of the dishes for everyone to taste. Sometimes this can take a couple of days depending on how broad the menu is, but it is only wise and prudent for management to do this. ONLY THEN can the wait staff truly provide recommendations to their clientele and answer questions customers will have regarding how something tastes and/or how it's prepared. I really love ramen soup, so even though this was an epic fail today - I'll give them a couple of more weeks (or months) to work out these problems and clean up their recipes with the hope to get a better ramen bowl from them in the future. read more

Sum foods don't don't look like it(but not look bad) but have to give it a try the food is amazing in this joint

Absolutely fantastic noodles! The Lan Zhou beef noodle soup and the hot and spicy noodle soup were perfect in every way. The broth in both soups are seasoned and built perfectly with lots of nuanced flavor. The spicy sauce is a great blend of tingly chili heat as well as a bit of numbing Szechuan pepper that is noticiable but not over powering. The noodles are outstanding! Chewy but tender and a perfect noodle to broth ratio. Soups come out fairly quickly too. I'm just really happy that we have this kind of place in town. I've been here 3 times in the past week so check it out! read more

Got food to go...let me say this,the place is neat and immaculate. People super friendly. We ordered dumplings,egg rolls and rock shrimp as appetizers,we didn't get the shrimp they gave us crab rangoons instead. The apps were just ok,ive had way better,just down the street as a matter of fact. So why 5 stars when the order was wrong and the apps just ok? Because the Mongolian beef stir fry noodles was the best,the noodles were perfect and ive never had beef that tender. I got the garlic shrimp noodles,same thing.The seasoning was spicy and the heat level was on point,we will go again,you must try this place! Sorry can't say enough about that beef! read more

Everything was amazing! Service was GREAT. We had a party of 8 and everyone loved all the food. We tend to do a whole table shares type meal. We got the calamari, edamame, chicken wings, spring rolls, and steamed dumplings as appetizers. The entrees were all different, but nice portions and easy to share. It was cool to be able to see the chef making the noodles. The only thing I think they could do better is make it where we could see better from our seats how the chef made them. read more

We really enjoyed the food, the lack of AC and drink menu brought it from a 5 to 4. Details: - pan fried dumplings (5/5) - my kids loved them and rated them. - calamari (5/5) - this was spicy but probably my favorite thing that we had. The calamari was in a French fry shape and amazing. - Mongolian beef stir fry (5/5) - this was really tasty, it felt like it had a tad too much sauce but I'd rather that than dry. I would absolutely order it again. The waitress recommended it. - chicken pad thai (4/5) - this was pretty sweet at first so my husband added so chili oil and that made it so much better. He said he would definitely order it again (and he cleaned the plate). - hot and spicy handpulled soup (3/5) - my son ordered this (removed the veggies) and he liked the noodles but didn't seem to be a fan of the rest. I will say that we love spicy but this heat hit in the back of the throat a bit much, probably wouldn't order it again. - kids noodle bowl/soup (5/5) - my other son gave this a 5 but I thought it tasted pretty bland. Then again, if the kid is happy, mom is happy! Will order again. One note, it comes with some sliced beef and that isn't noted on the menu. - eggrolls (4/5) - don't have a picture but these were ok. - service: the waitress was very sweet and did a great job being attentive and explanatory. - environment: they are cooling the place with 2 porta-cool things and it did NOT keep up with the Baton Rouge heat, I was sweaty by the end which took away from the experience. Overall, would come again! read more

The best is to try it yourself. We have different taste and preferences. Xialong bao is not what I expected

incredibly spicy noodle bowl, great staff, priced very reasonably. the steamed pork dumplings were delicious as well

Need to improve on the service! And the quality of the soup. Mine soup was like warm and the noodles was hard

the food is so yummy and you get great portion sizes for the price. the ambiance is also very nice and peaceful, and you can see the chef making the noodles by hand in the back. would recommend read more
