The Noodle Shop - San Mateo

The food here is excellent and authentic. The portions are generous, and the service is quick. The owner is really friendly and approachable.

It's been years since I last visited this restaurant, and I have to say, the food wasn't as good as I remembered. The portion sizes are still generous, which is a plus. However, the service has definitely improved; our waiter had an impressive memory and recognized us even after all this time. The restaurant has also expanded, making it larger and more accommodating. Parking is easy, and the prices remain reasonable!

I typically don't leave reviews for food because I believe they can be very subjective. However, I had such a great experience at this restaurant with my family last night, just 20 minutes before closing. We were treated exceptionally well, and the food was fantastic. Yes, it's affordable Chinese cuisine, but it's hard to find quality options these days. They have definitely earned our loyalty as a big family. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

Look for the 3 item specials but also the cho chow mein, Mongolian beef and beef noodle soup are all really good. fast service and friendly.

Price and food is awesome! What more can you ask for?
