I Love Noods

We have been waiting years for ‘I Love Noods’ to open! We stay at the French Market Inn next door often and have seen the sign and couldn’t wait for this restaurant to open. Boy were we not disappointed. We met the owner. She is super friendly and welcoming. The other staff were super sweet too. Atmosphere is inviting and very clean. Highly recommend getting the passion fruit pineapple green tea, tenderloin pho and bbq pork bao! We will definitely be coming back on our next NOLA visit.

We had a delightful lunch at I Love Noods, on Decatur Street. The atmosphere is very casual, yet colorful and upbeat. They have a pretty wide selection of Southeast Asian cuisine. Our food was served quickly and steaming hot. Our server was super friendly and took time to explain the menu for us, in detail. We will definitely eat here again.

I got the spicy tonkotsu and an order of the pork soup dumplings. The flavor of the ramen was amazing! Very rich and just the right amount of heat to make my tongue tingle but not blow my mouth out. The soup dumplings were very tender and had a good amount of soup inside. The dipping sauce served with them matched it very well. Atmosphere was very chill and our waiter was super nice. Absolutely pop in if you find yourself close by!

Very quaint atmosphere tux deep in the heart of the craziness that is New Orleans. The service staff was incredibly friendly, full of smiles and laughter. An easy menu made selections quick, and the food came out quick and hot. The Japanese old fashioned was a nice twist, while the boba to go was refreshing after.

So to clarify first, I went here for a Yelp event, but I Love Noods hosted a really great event! We were instantly greeted by our Yelp Community Manager Sa’Rah once we walked into I Love Noods and she offered us some cool and free Yelp goodies. The decor inside looked so retro and aesthetic. It was like we went right back to the 80s! Service was super kind and attentive at the same time. We got to try a sample of each dish. The dishes ranged from ramen to dumpling to even some brown sugar boba tea. Everything tasted delicious! Not to mention, there was a DJ there as well! I haven’t tried I Love Noods outside of this event yet, but thanks to the event itself I’m gonna give this place a shot whenever I get the chance. How can I end this review? Oh yeah… I Love Noods!

I had an easy time ordering on the tablet but I had a hard time choosing there were so many good looking options! I decided on the green tea with mango and I wasn’t Expecting such a large cup! It was so good and I enjoyed the fruit inside. Thanks!

Food was amazing. First time really trying ramen. I tried the Tokoyo Shoyu and it was fantastic. I went in where there were less ppl (practically empty lol) and I was finished pretty quickly. I had the fried pork appetizer as well and that was great!! I will be back!!

I tried this noodle restaurant in New Orleans and had a good experience! The ramen wasn’t traditional or very “oriental,” but it was tasty and satisfying enough for me to enjoy. The broth was flavorful, and the portion was generous. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was casual and welcoming. Not an authentic ramen experience, but still a solid meal if you’re in the area.
