literally the best chinese noodles ive ever had! the portions are GENEROUS - two people with big appetites could share one bowl tbh. friend and i got the spicy beef noodle soup and guilin dry noodle - both were incredible. you get to pick some side dishes, my favorite was the cabbage. the service was amazing too, they call you up when your food is ready, the girl working the counter was very kind and she helped us choose our dishes based on taste preference. i would rate this place 6 stars if…

It was so good I cried, the amount of food was remarkably generous, the rice cooked perfectly, and the entire meal absolutely delicious. I accidentally got a spicy bowl but it was so tasty I literally couldn't stop eating. I took it to go and it felt like when u leave ur aunt's house with a big warm dish of food. Cannot recommend more, I'm eating like a king!!!

Went to Noodleverse as I live across the street and was properly surprised! The spicy beef brisket soup was… SPICY! But also so flavorful and delicious. I would recommend picking up your order as they have an assortment of pickled veggies that the service team packed for us once we made our selections. Small win - they even packaged the noodles separate from the broth to make sure the to go order was not soggy. Can’t wait to come back!

Finally came in to check Noodleverse and got the beef noodle soup in clear broth. Noodle texture was perfect, beef was so tender. It was falling apart. There is a free salad bar that had mung beans, pickled, radish and cucumber, spicy red chili oil and cilantro. Owner/manager was very friendly and offered suggestions. I think I'm really going to love this place in the winter, the food was just so warm and comforting.
