Permanently closed! No idea what happened! Used to be my favorite place to get pineapple passion fried rice and crispy salmon... place is for sale now with name taken down :(

Diner Review №2

Seafood not Fresh.
Waitress never came back after I got my dish until the bill. Floors were dirty

Diner Review №3

Diner Review №5

We got chicken pad thai for takeout and it was just okay. It was missing the integral flavors that make good Thai food. The taste was just greasy bland garlic noodles. There was just a few pieces of chicken thrown in, might as well have left it out. There was a puddle of oil at the bottom of the dish. Overall, edible, but not good.

The only plus was that the food came out hot.

Needless to say, I am not a fan of noodle fan.

Diner Review №6

How in the world can this even call itself pad Thai? Tasted like oily garlic noodles. Bland. Yes it was Edible and we were hungry. Only plus is that it came out quickly and it was hot.

I've eaten many plates of pad Thai. I love Thai food but this was super disappointing. Especially for $14. Shoulda gone across the street to the sushi spot.

Ordered from Noodlefan for pick up. Solid Thai food especially for the area. I got the Pad See Ew extra spicy. I will definitely be back.

Diner Review №13

Better quality when dining in! I really recommend ordering a lunch special during the week. Good portions and decent prices.

Outside of the specials, prices have become a bit too steep. The best value is to order and share dishes among a few people.

I highly recommend the Drunken noodles & sidewalk fried rice

Diner Review №37

Diner Review №38

Sadly very bad taste. We had to throw away the food 😢

Diner Review №39

used to be our goto thai restaurant... i guess not anymore... should've taken cue from a customer from another table who said the spring rolls were different and asking the server if they changed cooks... server said cook is the same nothing changed... but those spring rolls were a favorite so we would know... nowhere near what it was... same with the pad thai and drunken noodles we ordered... too sweet and has an orangey taste... only good thing and still the same is the thai iced tea... moving on...

Diner Review №40

the food wasn’t good and the waitress was rude, don’t recommend. won’t be eating there again.

Diner Review №41

Noodlefan is GREAT! The food is very great and mouthwatering. My fiancé and love this restaurant. We always drive out of our way to eat here. Clean and Covid friendly environment. The staffs are polite and great at their job.

Diner Review №42

Food has awful flavor. Was cold and disgusting

Diner Review №43

First time here and it is a keeper. I will definitely come back. I recommend. The recommendations from Thau were great. Had the Spaghetti Thai Basil with Chicken and Beef, Thai iced tea, and a Beef soup (don't remember the name). The service was great... the waiter cared for us, set up wifi, fixed a table, handled the phones, dealt with the bill... she did it all and I was impressed.

Diner Review №44

I love this place the beef stew and Basil fried rice is a must!!

Diner Review №45

9:03 pm and they are closed on a Tuesday night. Drove 35 mins to experience disappointment.

Diner Review №46

Excellent food with great service to match! They don't serve alcohol, but they let you bring your own and provide glasses for you to drink it. Definitely making this my favourite Thai Restaurant in Union!

Diner Review №47

Every time I'm trying to call them they never pick up. I usually order on different delivery apps but one since I was near I went inside by myself. The place is absolutely disgusting. The floor was so sticky it was hard to walk on it . Tables and chairs so dirty I was afraid to sit down. Before I went there I was trying to call to order food for pick up. I called and called and no one picked up the phone. When I went inside there was a girl (waitres) on her phone doing nothing. This place should be closed like I said I never saw food place so dirty

Diner Review №48

Good Thai food restaurant, I like going here to eat quite often. Small atmosphere but the ambience is not the same as before Covid. The price is decent and the staff is quite friendly. There is additional parking in the back.

Diner Review №49

Love the place... best noodles

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

Diner Review №52

Their Thai tea is the best! Plus the people are nice!

Diner Review №53

The Curry Puffs are awesome! The service was fantastic. The young lady who helped me Saturday afternoon was extremely personable and went out of her way to make sure I was good. I believe her name is Nareida. Kudos to you and forgive me if I botched your name. Keep up the good work!!!

Diner Review №56

This place is bad. I usually never rate but this business is just so bad. The owner the old Filipino dude is so disrespectful. I had a friend that works there and she told me that the Filipino dude hold her money. My friend quit the right there. And then I took her to go get her money next day. She came back in the car and told me that the Filipino just throw Envelope instead of giving it to her nicely. If u want to work here. I won’t recommend it.

Diner Review №58

I love Thai cuisine a lot and being vegetarian it’s hard to find a perfect place with delicious food…it’s amazing they have lots of options for vegetarian as well gluten free

Diner Review №59

Hit or miss with the food. Not really sure if the cook washes his hand when coming from the bathroom 😒

Diner Review №60

I used to order here all the time in the past but in recent years, they’ve been disappointing. Theyve downsized their portions and remained the same price. They also did the same thing for their takeout cups for thai iced tea & coffee. The food also doesn’t taste as good as it once did and is very inconsistent. I still go here from time to time since I live nearby but overall I’m disappointed in the direction they’re heading.

Diner Review №61

Drunken noodles and mango sticky rice is so good! Best Thai I’ve had around here.

Diner Review №62

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №64

Tasty food, clean and cozy dining room. Freshly prepared. Try the Thai iced tea!

Diner Review №65

Good good good price good environment but they leave dishes on the table until you leave so 4 stars cause that's annoying. They should clear tables once done...

Update as of 3/22/21. Either they changed their recipe or their chef because the food is now salty and spicy and doesn't taste fresh... Drunken noodles used to be my family's favorite along with basil fried rice but now food's horrible

Diner Review №66

Love it!

Diner Review №67

Clean and so many healthy and definitely delicious food, real flavors, fast service for table of 5 people, we didn't wait long at all.

Diner Review №68

Diner Review №69

Love the food!

Diner Review №70

Ordered about 3 different soups and they all tasted like hot water. I called to see if i could exchange for something different or some type of credit since i didnt touch them plus i spend about $60. Worker said management will give me a call back and never did. Only giving it 2 stars because the wings were good

Diner Review №71

Novel pasta dishes alà Thai

Diner Review №72

I can't complain about the food as it was very good. The 3 stars represents the menu that is 1/4 of what is listed. Maybe it's a Covid thing but the menu was so chopped it was silly. How do you sell noodles with 10 different soups but only have 2 available?

Diner Review №73

Excellent service.
Food always good

Diner Review №74

Diner Review №75

Love love Thai food
Union Center has more Asian variety fopd and I love It.

If you like spice, which I do, their spicy Thai Basile Rice with shrimp and chikdren is AMAZING 👏!!

They also have goat soup. As a islander... is was so happily surprised and It is nice spicy. The kind of spicy that makes your nose run in the winter and kills the covid-19, but you taste flavor. The food is not. 🤪🤪🙀🙀💞💞💓💓just heat and no taste of flavor, but exactly the opposite DELICIOUS !

They randomly gave someone my order I placed 30 mins ago. I come inside the restaurant go to the waiter asked for my order, and he said someone came and took it. What?! How tf does that happen?

Diner Review №87

Diner Review №91

Had the chicken dumplings and their consistency was really good. Crunchy and juicy especially with the sauce!

Diner Review №92

My second time to spend my hard earned money on this place today wishing to try their foods.
But they no good customer service as far as the lady on the front desk is concern. The food order was prepared so long and the already prepared order was was seating on the counter uncovered making the foods already cold when I got it.
The worst part, I ordered shiitake spring rolls but when I arrived home with already cold foods, I got chicken dumplings instead, the lady as I saw have been opening each container before putting it in the bag and even writing some number on top of the container so it only means it was intentionally done. And my bill today is $55.35, I felt so bad and very disappointed to eat our already cold meals that was prepared for almost an hour.
And foods taste not as good as it should be!
To top it all a very rude front desk attendant.
It will be the last Thai foods from your resto!

Diner Review №93

Food is always fresh, but has very limited menu.

Diner Review №94

Good noodle planning on coming back

Diner Review №95

Diner Review №96

Disappointed. Owner wouldn’t accept a Groupon that was purchased the same day as our visit. Bad business ethics.

Nice place for some great spicy bulalo soup. Yes it can be slow but other than that it’s all good.

Diner Review №110

Get the drunken noodles, Thai iced tea and chicken dumplings. Great little joint for lunch.

Diner Review №111

Delicious Thai food. An absolute delight!!

Diner Review №112

The phone is constantly off the hook. I order my food 45 mins ago on door dash and I’m calling to check on my order because it has yet to be even made and have not been able to get thru. I have called 40 times literally. It’s very frustrating cause I already paid and wIted this long. I just want my food at this point

Diner Review №113

Great for a night of ramen craving, has Thai curry too. The tai tea is awesome.

Diner Review №114

My favorite Thai spot! I go almost every other week, kind staff and great food <3

Diner Review №115

Went last night for dinner. There weren't many people in there and the service was a little slow. It still took a while for us to get our drinks. We shared the fried shrimp appetizer and we both got the noodle soups. I got the Thai boat and he got the chicken noodle. They were both very flavorful. I felt like the chicken was very dry in the ckn noodle. I liked the sirloin in the Thai boat but not really the beef ball. I would deff go back again tho!

Diner Review №118

Great food, friendly staff, very inexpensive. My favorite restaurant.

Edit: Food no longer tastes like it's being cooked by people who know Thai food. Same dishes, less flavor, more grease.

Really hope it goes back to how it used to be.

Ps. The dumplings are still good, when they actually have it.

Diner Review №119

Noodlefan is the best Thai spot I enjoy for going. Food is good and the workers there are very nice.

Order was wrong, service was weird, food was okay, ambiance was nice

Diner Review №126

I believe that the kitchen staff had been changed. The food is not as good as before but only more expensive. Especially the goat soup, it was amazing but now it has no taste. Sigh.. I used to love this restaurant now I can only give 3 stars and I am trying to be nice...

Diner Review №127

Good Chicken Wings and Won Ton Soup

Drunken noodles are incredible, I love the pulled chicken noodle soup. If you like Thai food then this is certainly a place for you. There is plenty of seating, the place is always very clean, & the staff is very friendly. The only problem is sometimes trying to call to order out because the phone is almost always busy.

Diner Review №142

Amazing food and servings

Diner Review №143

Diner Review №146

Diner Review №147

Very bad customer service. Ordered a dish got another dish. And when I went to return it they closed the kitchen and sent me back with a refund.

Diner Review №148

Great location with a decent menu. The goat soup was one of the best I have had and would highly recommend for anyone who can handle reasonable amount of spice in their food. If it weren't for the sub par service, this would have been a high 4 star in my list. They were not rude, busy and not particularly attentive maybe. Would definitely go again for the soup though :-)

Diner Review №149

Diner Review №150

Very friendly staff, but it seemed like they could only serve dishes at 5 to 10 minute intervals..

Diner Review №151

Noodles were a little too greasy for me but the Thai Iced Tea was amazing. The Stir Fry Pork was overcooked and dry, but the chicken looked very good. Gotta try that next time. Service was excellent.

Diner Review №160

Diner Review №161

This place used to be great. However, over the past year the quality of the food and service has decreased substantially. The last two times ordering the yellow curry it has come missing the potatoes and no other vegetables as substitute. The drunken noodles have become a little less flavorful and a bit too greasy. Tom Yum soup used to be much more flavorful. To make matters worse, they have recently increased their prices and have made portions smaller.

Diner Review №162

Great food

Diner Review №163

Diner Review №164

Diner Review №165

We arrived and no one greeted us we sat down and waited 10 minutes before someone evening knowledge we were there when they took our order it took about a half an hour to get the food the food did not taste fresh it tasted like it was heated in the microwave the pad Thai was spicy when it was not supposed to be we told them and they did nothing about it we will not be returning.

Diner Review №166

Delishousness.

Diner Review №171

Love love love the Spaghetti Thai Basil and the Thai Iced Tea, wish they could make a larger batch of the tea so they didn't run out of it so often though.

Diner Review №172

Wonton soup is delicious, never had a bad meal here

Diner Review №173

I had the Pineapple passion 😄 chyle! I replaced the meats with vegetarian duck...lawd. And I'm a human contradiction at times because the Thai Tea is one of the only times I'll do a milk drink...but anyway, umm umm umm! Deeelish for Debbie downer day like the one I had. This dish along with my warm waiter Eddy made me smile.

So Yummy...

Diner Review №177

Ridiculous! Restaurant have $15 for $30 worth of casual dining deals on Groupon. Purchased it and was told they do not accept it. But, it is not the customer's fault! It's the restaurant who did not take care of the whole situation. Would never go again and absolutely do not recommend!!

Diner Review №178

I like The service and food is Great but thai restaurant should have rap music in background. Kids were seated nxt to me and all I hear is guy cursing in background. Shame.

Diner Review №179

Diner Review №180

Decent!

Diner Review №181

Visited this place on a Sunday around 1440, it was literally empty (we were the only ones at the time 3 people in one table). I have to say the food is delicious -loved the Thai iced coffee, the beef noodle soup, and the salmon (although the person who ordered it didn't like it much since it was a little too sweet) and the curry dumplings (the sauce was sweet as well, but I loved it). Prices are nice (around 50 something for 3 people), the only complain and the reason for only 2 stars is the time you have to wait for someone, first: to get your order, then your drinks and lastly your check -and the extra napkins we got until after we had finished eating. Oh, and desert was good too pumpkin something or other, for what we had to wait for almost an extra 40 mins to get... well, I wanted to try it, I did, i liked the food, but not coming back

Diner Review №182

Food decent. Edible but not special. Tom Yum soup very small bowl for the price and the broth was not tasty the way Thai soups usually are. My Pad Thai was the same - edible but didn't have the complexity of flavor or the tasty zing Thai food usually has.
The waitress was nice but alone and although the place was not full, she had to say a couple times, "I'll be with you in a minute" because she had to attend to other tables. I think they would benefit from having two servers.
Have been here twice. Doubt I will revisit.

Diner Review №183

Excellent food at a reasonable price! It's too bad I don't live around here anymore. I'll definitely stop by whenever I get a chance.

Diner Review №194

Awesome food and great customer service

Diner Review №195

Good food but they need better hot tea than Lipton!

Diner Review №196

Diner Review №197

Great food! House salad was great! Nice and fresh, crunchy! Wok noodles were firm, not wet and soggy! Not overdone on the spice.. I could taste the sprouts onions and peppers.. The hot tea was Lipton.. Booooooo... I wanted an artisanal blend, maybe even a steeper.. But good pricing for exceptional flavors and portions...
