I love noodles, and King Noodle hits the noodle and soup spot for me.
The restaurant is small- it has 9 metal tables crammed into a cozy space, and you can see the kitchen through a small window in the back. I've only ever seen the same man working there; he is quiet but friendly and efficient.
When you walk in, you'll be pounted to an empty table. The server (the aforementioned man) will bring utensils, water, and a half sheet of paper. This paper is your menu and order form. I like to get the pork and vegetable dumplings, pan fried, of course, and a bowl of soup. The menu/order form def felt overwhelming my first time there. There are no pictures or descriptions of any of the items. I have since learned that- you can't really go wrong with any of your choices.
My noodle order of choic is usually something like- original soup, noodles (yep, one of the noodle option is just "noodles" among choices like "flat rice noodle" and "udon"), cabbage, beansprouts, wontons, and another meat or vegetable. I got roast duck the most recent time. This gets me a large bowl full of delicious and filling food. I love the texture of the cabbage and beansprouts against the perfectly tender noodles.
I have not had their rice bowls, but they come out sizzling and seems to be a favorite amonst the regulars.
I got there around 11:50AM on a week day last time, and noticed I was just ahead of a rush that came in around noon. Turnover seems pretty fast though, so I wouldn't let a full restaurant or a large crowd deter you.
