    When we heard that Noodles Express was going to close, my friends and I were like we must visit. It's a truly hole in the wall restaurant. From the outside, it doesn't look really impressive and the interior isn't a standout. Service is pretty meh but nothing shocking. But the food is actually the reason why you should visit. The food is really good. Everything we ordered was pretty flavorful. There's a spice with most of the dishes we ordered so while one dish may not be spicy, it can add up when you have multiple dishes. My favorite was the fried pork intestine. That was so delicious and tasty. It was crispy. I'm craving them as I write this. Possibly one of the better intestines place in Colorado. If you're not adventurous, I still recommend them because it just tastes like pork belly.

    4 for the Szechuan dishes, 2 for the other dishes. Recommend the spices boiled fish, the intestines with sour cabbage! Sesame chicken was okay, a little heavy on the breading and the taiwan noodle soup the broth tasted like water but the meat was soft and the noodles were chewy, but an overall pass on these dishes for me. The dumpling is very mainland Chinese style with more meat than veg, and flavor is almost a licorice undertone, so while it's fine it's not my style of dumpling. Owners/servers are friendly, vibe is very hole in the wall. I 100% want to go back and try more of the Szechuan dishes, but probably pass on Taiwan or American style dishes.

    Excellent authentic food. The owners are really nice and will chat with you in Mandarin if you speak the language. Convenient location on Colorado Blvd in Glendale. Decor needs a makeover but it's clean and the food is well worth it!

    I'm already in mourning as their upcoming closure at the end of August looms closer. Authentic Chinese food is hard to come by as it is without trekking it out further south. I heard the landlord is making the rent unsustainable for them so the owners decided this would be a good time to retire. I plan on eating there as much as I can till then. Food overall: Szechuan style with a few Americanized options. Flavorful. Comes in generous portions. Favorites from the past two years stopping by here. -Pork intestine with sour cabbage - I enjoy the sour and salty flavor profile mixed in my rice. -Chongqing pepper chicken - very happy with how much szechuan peppercorn they put in. I like pairing every bite of chicken with it. -Eggplant with garlic sauce - they managed to keep the texture and purple color. No soggy eggplant here. -Pan-fried green beans - crunchy texture. Not too salty. Vibe: Small to medium ish. Casual. Service: Very nice and polite. Price: Reasonable for the portion size.

    Yo this place is GOOOOOOD. Like if you want Schezuan food - this place is the MOVE! Every single dish we ordered was delicious. For me, the standout are the Dan Dan noodles. Has a great kick to it and packed with flavor. The mapo tofu was great too. All around, best meal to come back to after a long weekend of hitting the slopes. Throughly enjoyed my meal here with friends! Nice owners too. Go check it out!!

    I definitely like the location of this restaurant! Don't have to drive all the way to Aurora yet it's close to other fun Asian places like Yomie Yogurt and Mango Mango! I digress... Get the Braised Pork Foot, you can remove your dentures and still be able to "chew" - it's that tender! (OK, joking about the dentures but you get my meaning) Their version of the Crispy Pork Intestine is stuffed with green onion, which I loved - added so much more flare! Home Style Cabbage has a little bit of a kick since it's stir-fried with Sichuan peppercorns. Twice cooked fish was ordered by my friend, I don't remember having tasted it. But it sure looked good! We only had one noodle dish - Homestyle Pork Noodles. You can definitely tell the noodles were made in house. It has that signature bite of hand pulled noodles. I won't think twice about coming back to check out more dishes!

    The vibe of this place is a little weird but the food is well worth it. I've been thinking about the dandan noodles since we last ate there.

    What, if anything, is gluten free? Everything sounds amazing!

    Most of the rice dishes should be gluten free or with rice noodles. Nothing is marked as gluten free though so they probably don't separate stuff that does and does not contain gluten. I would just call when you order so there is no confusion or…

    Wow. I was so impressed with this place! I had just finished reading a book about Chinese cuisine,…read moreand so was feeling inspired for our most recent date night. I haven't been very impressed with Chinese food in Denver, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but we were blown awayyyy!! We got several things to share, and I loved it all! The chicken shrimp wontons were so savory & a little bit spicy- the sauce was perfect. We next split the asparagus and green beans, which was the dish I was least excited about, but I'm pretty sure it ended up being my favorite. Crunchy, fresh, and a little spicy- delicious! Next we had the smoked wagyu brisket lo mein- wowwww this was so good. The smokiness wasn't overpowering, and once again the sauce was the best part. Noodles cooked to perfection. We ended with the Chong Qing chicken- this dish wasn't really up my alley, but my husband loved it! Salty & crunchy with sichuan peppers! Our server was really helpful & suggested all these dishes to us. To top it off, service was speedy! We were out of there in an hour with full happy bellies :)

I loved the high fashion cocktail! Interesting tea flavors, well-balanced, and not too sweet. And I'm sad it's going away. The food was also quite delicious. The dried scallop and bacon fried rice was game-changing! I'd have never thought to put those two things in fried rice, but it's so delicious! And the bacon just takes it up a whole other level. The short rib noodles were also yummy. I thought the cold chicken dish was interesting, like Taiwanese cold noodles but without the noodles. The fried Chinese eggplant was also a highlight. Sad this place has to close :(

    I really wanted to like this place because the lunch prices are great, but I left disappointed. I…read moreordered the lunch shrimp chow mein, and what I received wasn't chow mein at all. Any Google search for "shrimp chow mein" shows stir-fried egg noodles with shrimp and vegetables. Instead, I was served mixed vegetables with a separate bag of crispy noodles. The fried rice in my photo was my own substitution for the white rice that normally comes with the lunch special, so that's not the issue. I already ate the shrimp before taking the photo, which is why they aren't pictured. The lunch portion only came with about four shrimp. If this restaurant serves a different regional style of chow mein, that should be clearly explained on the menu so customers know what they're ordering. When you order chow mein, you expect actual chow mein noodles--not vegetables with a side of rice and a bag of crunchy noodles. Unfortunately, this wasn't what I ordered or expected, and I wouldn't order it again.

I liked them all and my husband loved the soup. He said he wouldn't get the dumplings again but I think it's just because we were recently spoiled with dumpling flavors in NYC and these were good but not amazing. For lunch I got the chicken fried rice and added tomatoes. Originally they said they did not add tomatoes but the server asked the chef and he said he could. I really appreciate it, I know most places don't add tomatoes to the fried rice but I love it. The serving was huge. I have enough left over for lunch and dinner tomorrow. My father-in-law got the chicken teriyaki and it looked beautiful. He said he hasn't had this dish in decades and loved it. The broccoli looked beautiful and green, not overcooked at all. His dish was also big enough that he has leftovers for tomorrow. My husband got the Beef Chao Fan. He was craving this when we were in NYC and it wasn't on the menu where he went, so he was so glad they have it on the menu. He loved it. He said the flavor was amazing. He also had enough to bring home for dinner tonight. Our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomach. We will be back!
