    Braised duck leg wonton thick noodle soup (noodles were soggy!!)
    Allena C.

    As always, we couldn't decide where to eat, so we just parked the car on Noriega and walked around, hoping something would pique our interest. We landed at Noodle Stop, a hole-in-the-wall, no frills joint. We've been here before, but it looks as if the menu has expanded. It used to be a simple and limited menu. We were able to grab a table on a Friday night at about 6 pm. Service is fast and efficient. GAI LAN WITH OYSTER SAUCE ~ A bit overcooked, so the texture was soft. They gave us a dish of oyster sauce on the side. 3/5 BRAISED DUCK LEG WONTON THICK NOODLE SOUP ~ My guy ordered this. It was in a slightly spicy curry-type broth with wide egg noodles, which were overcooked and soggy! The duck leg wasn't large enough to be the star of the show. The majority of what was in the bowl was soggy noodles. They are generous with their offering, but execution needs improvement. 2.5/5 STEWED BEEF BRISKET WITH PORK FEET GUILIN RICE NOODLE SOUP ~ This was my dish. The guilin noodles were cooked just right, and the beef brisket and pork feet were tender and flavorful. It was on point and perfect for SF's chilly evening weather. (Just a note for those who are allergic to peanuts, they are added to the Guilin noodle soup bowls.) 4/5 PORK INTESTINE GUILIN RICE NOODLE SOUP ~ My friend ordered this, and I tried a bit of the pork intestine as I've never had it before. It has an acquired flavor and taste! Eating one was okay, but I don't think I could eat a whole bowl of it! It had a good chewy texture, but I wasn't used to the taste. He liked it, so that's all that mattered. 4/5 Some dishes were cooked perfectly, while others were overcooked. There is only one chef in the kitchen, so when there are many orders to fill and not enough assistance, food doesn't turn out as it should. With a name like Noodle Stop, your noodles need to be cooked perfectly! Hit or miss with that one!

    The wings had a yummy curry taste and fries were good. Only weird thing was we asked for garlic fries substitute and they said no!
    Karen T.

    The chicken wings had a hint of curry flavor, they were juicy and crispy. The only odd thing was we asked for garlic fries to substitute the regular and they said No! But why? We even said we would pay extra. Well I would come back to try other dishes. Other peoples soup noodles looked good.

    Seafood lo-mein
    Ryan R.

    Stopped by this small noodle shop one night after picking up a friend from the airport. Even after 9:00 PM, they had a good amount of seating available and a relaxed, quiet atmosphere. I ordered the Seafood Lo Mein, which was a generous spread--it came with veggies, fried calamari, shrimp, a seafood cake, and a side of soup. Everything was very tasty (or maybe I was just starving? Hehe though I'm pretty sure it was just great food!). The service was excellent; the staff members were incredibly kind. I also really loved the vibe of the place, especially the butterfly wall and the street sign decor. I'll definitely be back to try the Curry Duck Leg Soup next time!

    Pork intestine and wonton Guilin noodle soup

    Came to Noodle Stop and was really impressed with their Guilin noodle soup. The portion was huge, and there were plenty of toppings, which made it feel very worth it. I really enjoyed the noodles and would definitely recommend giving them a try. There's a good amount of seating in the restaurant, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time.

    New hours, new specials menu and time. Seems like business is slower during the week reflected in their new business hours. No frills, Hong Kong spot. Wonton, jook, and milk tea are all tasty. Service is pretty standard Chinese place.

    For the price, and if you're a starving college student trying to ball on a budget, this is the place to go. Monday - Friday before 11:00 AM there is a 11.99 breakfast combo that includes an entree and a drink of choice. Talk about a steal! Cantonese speaking at this store with excellent service in my opinion. Fine to solo dine in and for small groups less than or equal 4. They can probably move some chairs around for bigger parties. Highly recommend with my utmost respectful regards.

    Happy to be here for lunch today, nice staff and great food with very affordable prices, definitely will come back more :)

    It's like I'm dining in Hong Kong Wow these noodles really brought me back to my HK trip. Okay here goes, I highly recommend their Cantonese Style number 9, wonton noodles which has different wontons with abalone, crab, and shrimp. It was super fresh and Hella good. But let's get to the star of the show, tge hot sauce and potstickers. When the lady asked me if I wanted 4 or 10, I quickly said 10 thinking if I didn't finish it, I could air fry them later. The potstickers didn't even make it past 5 minutes. I ate them ALL. Super fresh and crispy and with that sauce, the bomb! It was gone in a flash. My coworker's beef intestine and pig feet soup looked intense. Everything was great and we are sooo addicted to the hot sauce and their pot stickers. We bought 2 batches to go and the chili sauce. That's how good it was.

    A great neighborhood place for a casual meal. Family run so it has a cozy feel. There can be a wait for lunch. They have breakfast combos until 11am that are a good deal. I really like their wontons. Each one has a different flavor. I'm also a sucker for their homemade spicy sauce.

    Wonton is not cooked. Pork inside and you cant under cooked wonton.
    Olee L.

    Never so angry. Wonton is not cooked. Soup is hot but wonton is lukewarm. We were hungry so just have to eat only the wonton skin. Split out all pork filling. This shop need to be retrain all staff about food safety. Teenager can boil dumplings and at lease cook it through in water. Horrible. Never again! Bathroom is clean and service is good. Hence 2 stars.

    Came here to try a new noodle spot with friends!! The ambiance is nice and cozy, and the service is great as well! We ordered our food and drinks pretty quickly, and they came to our table relatively fast too. We got the curry duck noodle, "noodle stop" seafood noodle, and savory rice noodles with peanut sauce! The food was delicious, and the portions were so big! My favorite dish had to be the seafood noodle - the shrimp, calamari, and dumplings were friend on top of the egg noodles, and they give you soup on the side that you pour into the dish yourself! My friend got the hot milk tea and I got the hot honey lemonade, and we both loved our drinks! The hot honey lemonade was definitely on the sweeter side, but it was very good nonetheless. Overall, this was a great noodle spot to stop by and eat - complete with both noodles and hong-Kong style drinks :)

    Great, no frills wonton noodle shop in the sunset district, I stumbled upon a lunch spot with friends on a random Saturday. The menu is very extensive, but id stick with the Cantonese style noodle soups here. Most people here ordered the wonton noodle soup and rice noodle rolls. I ordered a hot soymilk which could've been warmer, it felt like they just microwaved the cup so not sure how fresh the soymilk actually was. Rice noodles were just ok, and the broth could've had a bit more flavor. Service for HK style cafe was not bad and pretty attentive

    Jiang Jiang noodle
    Han-Nha T.

    Good customer service, the lady is very knowledgeable about their noodles. Solid flavors and great appetizers. Loved the "salty fried bread" / Chinese banh tieu and dumplings had good skin. Soup was good but the noodles were not the spongiest. However, pretty cheap ~$15 for a big hot bowl. If I'm in the area would definitely consider coming back.

The portion sizes were decent and everything came out hot and pretty quickly. I also ordered the chicken plum karaage as a side. It was all white meat and surprisingly tender and juicy. It didn't have a ton of flavor, but the texture was good. You can watch the chefs working right behind the counter, which is kind of cool. The whole meal came out to a little over 40 dollars after tax, so expect to pay a bit more for the experience. Overall, it's a cool spot to get fresh clean soba and it's close to Super Mira.

I was in SF one afternoon and decided to kill an hour by waiting in their line. I showed up at 3.10 PM and there was no line, I stood anyway and later the line built up behind me. Place is not the safest, I saw some folks trying to open the parked cars on that street hoping to find one that was unlocked . Not all folks who made it before their 4 PM opening managed to get a table in the first round. The place only seats around 20 people or so and they have a mandatory requirement that each person has to order a bowl of ramen. We got the following *enoki chips: 3/5: salty, limp, greasy to the point of floating in a pool of oil. *vegan tantanmen-2.5/5- disappointed by this one. Had better vegan ramen at several other establishments. The version here has two dominant flavors- extremely smoky and bitter. The kale didn't help as well. The enoki chashu was interesting though, had the texture of meat. *classic toripaitan-4.5/5- this was good and I can see why it got the awards. Had a rich and deep taste of chicken. All the elements helped elevate the bowl. *spicy lamb miso cumin-4/5- the flavors of cumin and lamb just shone through here. If you enjoy the flavor of lamb get this. The fried eggplant was epic in this dish. Overall, not worth the wait, the vegan ramen can be avoided unless you are a vegan. Get the classic toripaitan as that was the best.

    Taniku Izakaya might be one of the best Japanese spots I've tried in the US. Full stop. My friend…read morewas in town and had heard about this place so naturally we go check them out. They allegedly have a few limited reservation slots but a majority of their service is first come first serve. You stand in line and wait. I would not recommend coming in large groups. In fact, I'd go as far as to say groups larger than 4 are basically contraindicated. The space inside is quite tight, think narrow, barstool-height seating and tiny tables. When my friend and I were seated after about a 40 min wait, we had spent so much time perusing the menu that we basically knew what we were going to get. Service was really kind and quick. My thoughts on the food below: Kabocha croquet: these were freshly fried and served PIPING hot. The perfectly crisp exterior and soft, non mushy interior were just the perfect textures contrasted against each other. The sweetness of the pumpkin meant that the vinegar heavy house dipping sauce was a requirement not a suggestion. The side salad also provided some freshness with each bite, not that the croquets were too greasy at all! They were well drained so just the crunch remained without the oil. Tori Tsukune: these Japanese chicken meatball skewers were HUGE and DELICIOUS. Perfectly grilled with a charred taste, relentlessly tender inside. Dipped in the accompanying soy sauce and egg yolk mixture it was simply heavenly. The yolk added a mild richness to each bite. Hotate carpaccio: this was the most unique take on scallops I've had in a while. The flavors seem strange at first glance (and first taste, if I'm being totally honest), but it took no more than two chews for me to change my tune. First off, the scallops are plump, crisply sweet, and buttery soft in the way that high quality scallops are. Next, the onion and yuzu provide a sharp yet floral aroma to each bite. The floral taste was initially jarring but became addictive. The drizzle of cream sauce on top tempered the sharpness and gave the dish a smooth finish. Truly a memorable scallop dish!! Midori udon: a scallop and pesto stir fry udon dish. This was unexpected combo when I read the menu, but it was so good! The briny and sweet little scallops were cooked to a perfect tender texture and they paired well with the mild, herbaceous pesto. The udon provided the perfect slurp. While I'm more of a soup noodle girl myself, this was an addictive and unique Japanese-Italian fusion! Niku Ramen: Taniku has a lot of inventive ramen offerings but the niku ramen stood out to me. I've had and enjoyed niku udon before, though I usually find the broth to be too sweet. This dish took all the best parts of niku udon - the mountains of tender, marinated beef, the soft boiled egg, the tender onions - and put them into a richer, heartier broth with thin ramen noodles and the outcome was fantastic. One of the most memorable bowls of ramen I've had in a while. The broth was seriously delicious. I'm such a big soup person so I keep coming back to that. It wasn't too sweet or too salty in the way that a lot of noodle soup broths are, but still managed to impart a ton of flavor. The meaty, fishy flavor was so drinkable. For the quality and quantity of food vs the price you pay, I was incredibly impressed by Taniku Izakaya!!!! Just banger after banger after banger. I saw that they have some good happy hour deals as well so I will definitely be coming back for more of their delightful apps and skewers. I cannot recommend this spot enough, there's a reason people queue for it.

I've been to plenty of Japanese/Ramen spots and I've been running into the issue where I say I have a soy allegry and there is an assumption that I have a gluten issue (I do not have a gluten issue). I noticed yelp said they have soy-free options and thus called on Friday thinking it might be a bad idea as they're usually busy.. It was defintely hard for the person to hear a bit when they picked up. The staff did relay something about gluten free noodles.. Anyways, they said they could swap out any of the soy soups for salt (but soy can encompass a lot of things so I still wasn't feeling super confident but we're going to give it a go). We go and I asked which 4 of the soups I was eyeballing don't have soy - the staff said they can accomodate and replace any of the soy soups with a salt broth. After we ordered, the staff came back and checked in to make sure that my partner also didn't have an allergy. And my dish came out, they told me there was no egg as its marinated in soy - perfect to me. I'm glad that was caught as not every establishments can account for everything. - Now I have a spot to (more safely) eat ramen! - I advise that if you do have an food allergy, do talk to the staff, and address your concerns such as cross contamination etc. I had a great experience, but I do find that because its not so regulated or understood and there is lack of education amongst the food/resturant industry - you always need to advocate for yourself and there is always a risk. I'm very apperciative of the staff here.

We ordered the lowest level of spiciness and while there was still a kick, it was extremely manageable.

Typically what I saw was they do waves of seating and ordering so if you aren't there right at open/when they fill up, plan to write your name down and grab a drink nearby. Once we got seated, they were pretty prompt to give us utensils, napkins, cups, and water. The two of us shared the Braise Beef Galbi Stew. It's more than enough for 2 people to go home in food comas (with some food remaining) and for 3 to be sufficiently full. If you have big eaters, order an app alongside if you have 3 people. The Galbi stew was exceptional. I liked that they had various levels of spiciness. We went with spicy and it had a nice kick that elevated the dish for me. The beef was very tender and flavorful and the veggies and rice cakes soaked up all the juices. And the cheese was so stretchy! I'd actually rank this place slightly above Daeho given the shorter wait, the quality, and the price. I'll be back for sure.
