Le Shrimp Noodle Bar (South Coast Plaza)

Not sure how long they will have the chicken and rice and the laksa but the chicken and rice was just about as authentic as eating at a hawker center in singapore. Excellent we loved it. The laksa soup was excellent but the noodles were little soft and not as satisfying. Although that texture is probably the way its supposed to be as that was very similar as ive had in singapore. Just a personal preference i prefer to have more chewy noodles. Their signature trio shrimp noodles were great. We got the thick noodles and it was very tasty. We would def go back for the chicken and rice but the signature noodles were very good also.

First time trying Le Shrimp after hearing my friends recommend it so much & I’m glad I listened! Came here for dinner on a Saturday around 7pm after shopping in the mall. Had a minimal wait (~5mins) to get seated. Ordering is via QR code but since the phone service & mall internet weren’t the best, we just placed our order directly via our server. I couldn’t decide what to order, but I ultimately opted for the signature trio (see photo). The food came out smelling so good, and it tasted just as good! While I wouldn’t eat here on a regular basis, it is definitely great to have every once in a while when close by (or if you’re just craving shrimp noodles). I would definitely want to try everything else they have if I’m ever back!

First time at this restaurant. Very popular and usually there's a line for a table. We got seated quickly for a table for 2. Very friendly staff but everything is ordered through QR code so the servers didn't really check in on us except to clear the table. Food was good, but I didn't find it extraordinary.

We stopped in Irvine on our way from LAX to San Diego to feed our baby and grab a quick bite. Near South Coast Plaza, we found a food court at Bloomingdale’s and decided to try a Japanese shrimp noodle spot. We ordered a set meal with wonton shrimp noodle soup, spring rolls, and tea. The shrimp broth was flavorful, but the noodles were just okay, and the prices were on the higher side. The experience was quite chaotic as we juggled our fussy baby, and my husband even spilled soup on himself in the rush. Overall, the service was great, and the environment was nice, but unless you’re specifically craving shrimp noodle soup, there might be better options around.

The first shrimp broth in the US 🦐🔥 The rich broth is absolutely amazing! Highlights of the menu: A1 Signature trio shrimp noodle A2 Big prawn & braised scallion soy chicken (thigh meat) shrimp noodle 3. Egg for side dish 4. Veggie for side dish - the sauce is good! A cozy place in South Coast plaza food court. The flow is fast so if you see a line don’t be panic. You can scan QR code for menu and ordering, very efficient system where they can use less labor and convenient. You can choose the thickness of noodles and if you want your shrimp peeled or not. Highly recommended!

I was staying nearby on a work trip, and stopped here one night for a quick after-office bite. The A1 Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle was everything I hoped it would be: brimming with collagen and umami, and studded with shrimp essence. All three types of shrimp were perfectly cooked, and the noodles were deliciously al dente. While I still prefer meat-based broths, I definitely wouldn't turn down a bowl of this in the future. Especially when work is paying for it.

The shrimp broth tastes really fresh and flavorful. It’s advertised as an umami bomb and they really delivered! I would give a solid 5 if they got the ramen texture right. The noodle is too soft. Adding some chewiness would make it perfect.

It's good for a quick lunch / dinner especially on a cool day. Their signature is really good if you are a shrimp person. You can also get the dry noodles instead without shrimp if you do not like the overly shrimp flavors. The shrimp broth is flavorable enough by itself - even a vegan meal with shrimp broth is good. Service is more courteous than expected after two times visiting here.

We were introduced to Le Shrimp Noodle Bar during OC Restaurant last year and have revisited it many times even at their new locations in Fountain Valley and Irvine Spectrum. Daughter said that she would not mind visiting twice this week. We chose to go to the Costa Mesa location after a work shift at around 2 p.m. Victor led us to a table right away. He brought us menus and then brought us the OC Restaurant menu when we requested it. He was the only one on the floor seeing to all the customers at the time. They had their popular noodles available A4 Big Prawn Noodle, A5 Prawn and Chicken Wonton Noodle, and A6 Braised Scallion Soy Chicken Noodle with shrimp broth which could be switched to chicken broth and unlimited noodles with a side of either bok choy or spinach with vegan oyster sauce for $20. There were three of us in our party and we ordered all 3 noodles. Because we were unsure of the ingredients in the vegan oyster sauce, we asked Victor to have the kitchen put the sauce on the side. Victor asked if we were all right with soy sauce. He brought the bok choy and spinach with soy sauce out first followed by the spinach with the vegan oyster sauce. We were amazed at how Victor was able to hold the hot, hefty bowls of noodles. There was plenty of vegetables in the lunch meal with the side and cabbage in the prawn and chicken wonton noodle. The young ladies were quite full and could not avail themselves of more noodles. We all took half our bowl home for eating again later with soup container. Victor also provided a box for the vegetables and a container for the oyster sauce. We were able to eat slowly and enjoy our meal as there were only a few diners and a few takeout orders. Happy hour would not start until 2:30 p.m. We really like the Blogic systems they use for us to complete our payment. They leave the portable device with us and we can have the receipt printed, emailed, or texted to us.

Finally I got to try this shrimp noodle! I'm very much familiar with this dish because is quiet common in Singapore and my family always takes me whenever I go visit them. Located in South Coast plaza , at their newish food hall , it's very easy to spot and the line moves pretty fast. We were greeted by the manager and I think they were understaffed that night because it took us a while to place an order or even to refill our water. They have couple seat variations with table or booth. We went there on a Friday during Chinese new year week, and they had lion dance inside the food hall! The flavor of the broth is soooo rich, won't recommend if you're allergic to shrimp because my partner got a severe allergic reaction just by tasting it tiny bit ! Can't wait to come back!

Parking: ample parking space Wait: went on a Friday night around 7pm and we were seated immediately. Food: food was really rich in shrimp taste but it was a unique flavor. Service: the staff here was so friendly and sweet. Discounts: there are BOGO 1/2 off discounts during the week and weekend discounts on Saturday and Sunday. We weren't informed about this until after the meal when we got our bill but it was a pleasant surprise.

On cold days, a big bowl of hot noodle soup always sounds so comforting and delicious! The shrimp broth is what Le Shrimp is known for, but I wanted to switch things up from my usual order and try the spicy chicken broth with delicious dark meat chicken and wide noodles. This dish really hit the spot! The chicken was tender and full of yummy five spice flavor, and the noodles were chewy and extremely satisfying. The broth was just spicy enough and very savory. I couldn't get enough of it! Would definitely order this again and I think it would also be a really nice dish if I'm feeling under the weather. Service was friendly and the ambiance at Le Shrimp Noodle Bar is casual. They're pretty efficient too so we got in and out fairly quickly. Look forward to our next visit!

I tried le shrimp quite a while ago. It's from the same paradise group as pradise dynasty from singapore. The food is good and is a unique take on fusion ramen and prawn mee. If you're very familiar with singapore food though, you may think it tastes mostly like prawn mee. It's good for sure but for me it's more of a try it once kind of food. I would rather eat prawn mee on its own, and tonkotsu ramen on its own.

What a cool joint! The design is very welcoming and the atmosphere is warm and comfortable. The staff is hospitable and kind. Love! Love! Love the food. I had the Soucy Shrimp Chicken Ramen. Just the right kick and not salty. The appetizers were delicious too!

Came on a weekend lunch so couldn't take advantage of the meal deals. The server was actually confused and originally told me we could get the deal but when I mentioned the fine print, he said oh sorry. We ended up ordering the regular menu priced combo with the signature trio shrimp noodle, egg rolls, and iced tea. Egg rolls were tasty but a bit over fried. You can see how dark it came out. Signature Trio Shrimp Noodles tasted good with rich broth but very disappointing to see they changed the shrimp content. My previous visit, it came out looking like the menu photos with large head on shrimp which I love. This time it looked like the regular sized pre peeled and deveined shrimp you get from the frozen aisle of the grocery store. Definitely not the same visual effect nor the Unami taste of the large head on shrimp. The tea we ordered with the combo was Asian branded canned tea.

Perfect end to a long day of holiday shopping at South Coast Plaza. The Trio Shrimp Noodle is the way to go here with Prawns, Prawn Balls, and Wontons. Their broth is excellent, I had finished all of it after the noodles.

This place had been on my list for a bit. I was interested to see what the hype was about the shrimp broth, since they pride themselves on being the first shrimp broth spots for ramen in the US. This location is a bit small, so it is not ideal for large groups or kids. We came here with my 2 year old daughter. While they have highchairs and booster seats, it is a bit tight of a fit and less roomy than other places, especially if you want to take in your stroller. Regardless, they give kids a cute plate, utensils and water cup to feel included. I ordered the Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle since that is what they are known for and added an egg. My husband got the Crispy Chicken Noodle which is with chicken broth. For appetizer, we shared crispy vegetable spring rolls (nothing to write home about). Both of our main dishes were great. It was a bit different to have shrimp broth, but tasty. I did enjoy the wonton included in the soup. I would return here and try other options again next time.

I was excited to try out Le Shrimp Noodle Bar since I'd heard some buzz surrounding the business. I met up with a friend for a weekday dinner, and we had a great time! We both ordered the combo set - one dry shrimp noodle bowl with tofu and one garlic shrimp garlic rice with cucumbers. We also ordered a small side bowl of the shrimp soup - that's the specialty so of course we had to try! The shrimp soup is surprisingly shrimpy - the flavor is strong and good. I really liked the garlic shrimp garlic rice - yes, garlic twice bc both the shrimp and rice are flavored strongly - yum! The shrimp balls that came with the noodles were also great - the shrimp flavor is strong and doesnt get lost like generic shrimp balls at hot pot places. The service was nice and quick! And the restaurant was decorated in a fun zombie apocalypse theme for Halloween. All in all, a good experience.

Le Shrimp Noodle Bar sure knows how to spotlight shrimp. The broth was luscious and fragrant. The wide noodles were delectably chewy. Each piece of shrimp was perfectly pink and plump. The shrimp/fish balls were also speckled with roe to give it a bit more crunch. We had plans to make another pit stop for lunch, so we opted to split a bowl, but in hindsight, I wish I'd had a bowl all to myself. They also have deals most days of the week, so bring your appetite and your friends. Le Shrimp Noodle Bar is sure to be a hit!

Hidden in bloomingdales with a bunch of other options. Love this little food court! This place has been casually on my list for a while, and I'm seeing it grow in locations across SoCal/OC. Tried the Char Siu Shrimp Curry Broth Ramen (limited collab with Smoke Queen until late November) and the original shrimp broth ramen. Both were solid! I liked the original broth more because it tasted more shrimp like but was lighter in feel. I tend to prefer thinner broths because I don't love heavy things. the curry broth was good too, but it didn't feel as unique as I expected. That one reminds me of Khao Soi. I'd say overall they are solid broths. The price point makes a difference for me though, I think the original one is worth it being $17/18 while the limited curry one was $23/24 and I don't think that one was as worth the price point. They were about medium sized, I expected more broth for both dishes when they arrived at the table. However, they were filling enough and perfect for a medium appetite. It was not busy when we went, which was on a Tuesday evening. I imagine it can be busy on a weekend, but there are more food options in the court now. The staff was straight forward and friendly. Cute format for the restaurant, it's not completely closed off from the food court and is mainly wood furniture. Feels comfy and inviting!

I LOVE shrimp and I didn't even know shrimp ramen was a thing, so I was excited to stumble upon this place is South Coast Plaza. Super cute on the inside and my ramen was delicious! Tried the A2, or the spicy prawn and braised scallion soy chicken ramen. Broth was super rich and yummy, and honestly not spicy at all! Could have been even spicier to be honest. The chicken meat in the ramen was interesting too, but didn't do much for me, would probably just try the shrimp trio next time. I commend the servers for serving the amount of people here with the limited staff. It was a little tight in the two people tables tbh, and I definitely accidentally elbowed a woman standing up from the booth part. Either way, great ambiance and rich broth! Noodles could be better imo but still a tasty meal!

When I first heard about this a few years ago, I absolutely had to try it but the lines were always very intimidating and long.. until recently! I came today around 2pm for a late lunch and waited about 10 minutes in line before getting seated. The hostess handed us a menu to look over in line and was ready to take our order the second she seated us. My fiance and I shared the signature trio shrimp noodle with thin noodles and the ebiko prawn ball dry noodle with wide noodles. We both preferred the wide noodles because it had a really good bite to it, but the sauce on the noodles became overwhelmingly salty halfway through. The ebiko prawn balls were absolutely to die for - perfect bounce to each bite! The shrimp noodle broth was everything it claimed to be and some more! It was umami, shrimpy, and rich. It makes you wonder how many shrimp heads were used to make one batch.. The toppings aside from the ebiko prawn balls were average, but the broth definitely made the dish. Great spot to grab a quick meal if you're in South Coast.. or nearby. Located at the bottom floor of Bloomingdales.

Food was a 3/5, but service from Tan was a 5/5! He checked in on us frequently and was quick to help. Bf and I stopped by during happy hour (between 2:30PM-5:30PM 30% off main dishes) as we've been wanting to try it for a while now. It was pretty packed but they were able to seat us right away! It's a pretty small joint located on the first floor of Bloomingdale's, but you don't feel super cramped so that's a plus for me. Signature Trio Shrimp Ramen: my bf ordered this and it was ok. The noodles were cooked well, and the broth was pretty shrimpy, though it was also kinda salty. He was a bit disappointed to find that he only one wonton though :( didn't really feel like a trio as he got 2-3 pieces of the prawn and ebiko balls. Ebiko Prawn Paste Noodles (dry noodle): I ordered this as I wasn't really feeling broth and I enjoyed it! Noodles were also cooked well and the sauce wasn't too salty. The ebiko prawn paste was also good! Shrimp Tacos: for $5, they were sorta worth it. Pretty small, about bite sized if you take big bites. It was pretty drenched in sauce, so that's all we could really taste. Crispy Chicken: VERY crispy and tender. It smelled delicious when it was brought out. I really enjoyed this and would return for this! Price is steep at $10.75 for a plate though. Overall, it was definitely worth trying once. I'm not sure if we'll return any time soon, but I will want to return again when I'm craving their crispy chicken.

Longing to try the Costa Mesa location, we made it to Irvine. We sat outside with our dog. Service was a pleasant surprise. They checked on us a few times & refilled our water. We went for a combo. For an additional $5, you get a drink & an appetizer. Among the 4 appetizer options, we had Braised Beancurd & Vegetable Spring Roll. Both were fresh & tasty. As for the main, we both opted for Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle except that Hubby had the dry version while mine came in soup. Each bowl included 3 shrimps, 2 prawn balls, a wonton & veggies . The broth was not as mind blowing as I had hoped and a bit on the shrimpy side, but it was still pretty good. The noodles were al dente though. However, the wonton was falling apart. It's worth a visit, & I hope that I'll experience Costa Mesa soon.

Love Le Shrimp Noodle Bar!! Located At South Coast Plaza, First Floor At The College Culinary Food Court!! Nice Ambience!! I'm A Frequent Lunch Guest & Always Enjoy Dining Here!! This Visit, I Ordered A1 Which Includes Signature Trio Shrimp Ramen, Cold Tofu & Ice Oolong Tea!! Shrimp Broth So Delish!! You Can Create Your Own Combos Or Order Menu Items Separately! They Also Honor Vegan Options As Well!! Service Always Kind, Efficient & Courteous!! Great Menu & Great Service!! Looking Forward To My Next Visit At Le Shrimp Noodle Bar!! ThankU

Stopped by here after we got hungry from stopping by the gentle monster pop up. Got the prawn and chicken wonton noodle. Was super yummy. Very flavorful with a strong shrimpy flavor throughout the broth. The wontons were soft and shrimpy too. The noodles were chewy and not too soft which I liked. Service was very slow for being almost empty. Other than that though, was a pretty good experience. Food: 4.6/5 Service: 2/5 (SO slow) Ambience: 4/5 (pretty good for in a mall)

What absolutely amazing food this place has. I'd been here about 2 years ago and remember having the same reaction, but it's about time I wrote a review for it. The service is wonderful, we came on a Wednesday evening towards 8p, so the dining area was pretty empty save for about 3 or 4 parties, and we were seated right away. The seating area is nice and quiet, which we both really appreciated. Derek was our host and server and he was very quick and tended to us! I ordered the Ebiko Prawn Paste Tossed Truffle Ramen and wow!! What an absolutely amazing dish!! It's extremely flavorful, umami, and the right amount of truffle. Not too overwhelming! My partner ordered the Signature Trio Shrimp Noodles and the broth is out of this world-- it's deep, rich, and flavorful. The extra shrimp that comes with the noodles as well add to make it a shrimp lover's paradise. Don't miss out on this place, it's worth the hype!

small poppin restaurant in the downstairs food court. Small place so a line grew fast - but so worth! Food came out quick and was so flavorful. Not spicy so get extra sauce on the side! They def deserve a burger place! Prices are amazinggg for the quality

Came for dinner and the place had a good amount of customers. There were only two staff working and in charge of everything. Though, they made sure everything was satisfied throughout my time there. They were quick with bringing out water, taking orders, and getting the orders to us. Although everything looked promising in the menu, I ordered the Ebiko Prawn Paste Tossed Noodle. Note: do not believe the picture of real shrimp, it comes with shrimp balls. The shrimp balls were good, reminds me of those seafood balls you can get for hotpot at your local asian grocery store. There is a thick and thin noodle choice, I picked thick. The noodles themselves were a good, chewy texture. The sauce itself was not really anything special. It was good, but not something I'd come here again to taste. My friend got the Prawn and Chicken Wonton Tossed Noodle. The sauce was the same for her. Also, we both ordered the spicy option. The spicy was not in the bowl. Maybe they missed that part of our order. The quality of food is great but I would like to try other flavors they offer! The vibe itself gives cute ramen restaurant, great to enjoy with friends/family. The place itself is next to other food/dessert/boba shops. Very convenient and a great place to stop by if you are in South Coast :)

Recent stopped by for a quick lunch. I had the ebiko shrimp paste with dry egg noodles. Shrimp balls were good but it only came with 5 pieces. They give you plenty of noodles though. Everything was tasty and not too salty. Service was good. Will definitely eat again when I'm at the mall. More dining option for me.

TDLR: Ramen reimagined but in a good way. Non-pork enters now have a solid shrimp alternative that offers the ramen experience. Shrimp trio Ramen: The broth provides a very rich shrimp taste. The shrimp itself was cooked well and the shrimp ball was better than what hotpot places provided. The noodle was fine and I think it's an honest bowl of ramen. Braised chicken: It's good but nothing to call home about. Tender, sweet, and salty on certain parts. It's a good pairing for the shrimp explosion of a ramen. Service: You order and pay via website after scanning a QR code on the table, so you really have limited interactions with the staff. They're quite active in filling up the water cup which is good. Ambiance: The place is in a small spot in a mall, so the background mall noises will be there. The restaurant itself was okay. Decently spacious and has okay space even at a full house.

Came by for Happy Hour, which it's 30% off all main dishes Mon - Fri 2:30 - 5pm. There wasn't a line so I opted for the bar seat because you can watch the chefs in the back make the bowl. I ordered the Signature Trio ($19), which includes 2 shrimps (peeled or unpeeled), 2 shrimp balls, and a dumpling. The bowl came out within 10 mins of ordering and was piping how. I can't rave about the broth enough because it was full of Umami flavor. You can really taste the shrimp in the broth. The ramen thin noodles I chose were cooked perfectly and was tender to the bite. The shrimp balls were delicious and was bursting with small roe in them. The dumpling was good, but lacked more filling. The shrimp was good, but they didn't peel off the entire shell like I chose so I had to peel it myself which defeats the purpose of choosing the peeled option. The service was great, food came out quick, and I was thoroughly full.

First time to eat at this place. Typical food court style rerestaurant. The ramen broth really taste good. With large fresh sshrimp and full flavored wanton. The food was ready in just minutes when we ordered. The place is small with few tables. The service is good as well. I would rate this experience with 4 for food and service.

Le Shrimp Noodle Bar - self-proclaimed first shrimp broth ramen in the U.S... haven't fact checked so I don't know how true that is but I'll take their word for it. So they actually have other noodle and rice dishes on their menu, but let's be real...we came here for the SHRIMP ramen! And our take on it was that if you're a shrimp lover, then you're most likely going to love the broth. It has such a great umami flavor. We actually went with the signature trio, which had prawns, prawn wontons and chicken wontons. And they were good but the whole dish was made memorable by the broth since that's what made the dish. Still, the prawns were a good size and the wontons only added more to like with the dish. The only thing that didn't make the dish perfect for me were the noodles. It's a matter of preference, but the noodles weren't really cooked to my liking. I can't say for sure if it was al dente or not - they were still good but it wasn't like other ramen noodles that I usually have. It didn't matter too much because we indulged in that delicious broth that impressed us enough to make us want to come back again. Not sure if this is something that I would want all the time, but I know there will be some days that I'll be craving some umami broth and Le Shrimp Noodle Bar is where I'll go.

Since my last review I've visited about 5 times all 5 times the quality and consistency has been off. I've ordered 2 times the Cod soup where my cod was completely under cooked clear and tough. Then another time where I got the shrimp soup and it came with two small shrimp not even medium , another where my noodles were extremely over cooked and my broth was very salty. Not sure what's going on . But the price point is up there and I expected more consistency. My orders have all been to go orders because I work in the mall. I can never get ahold of the restaurant to inform them about my order . Their phone lines are automated

First time trying Le Shrimp Noodle Bar! We got 3 items to try based on the recommendation from our waiter, Ian (shout out to Ian!). We ordered the wontons to share and also ordered two entrees. We ordered the crispy chicken garlic rice bowl and the signature trip shrimp ramen (our waiter recommended for us to try it with the thick noodles which we did, and I'm so glad we did bc it was delicious!) The chicken was crispy, and cooked to perfection while the ramen was different from your typical Japanese ramen, the sauce was so flavorful and I swear it was the best thing ever. The service at Le Shrimp is phenomenal! The staff is friendly, attentive, and goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable dining experience. We never had to ask anything twice! Thank you Ian and team! I would def come back to try the other items on the menu :) Honorable Mentions: -Inside SCP (under Paradise Dynasty) -Accepts credit card

I don't understand the hype. The soup is super bland even with adding black garlic oil. We got seated fast and food came out fast. We ordered the big prawn soup and the honey cod rice. The rice bowl was ok but way better than the soup. It is a little sweet. I don't recommend this place at all unless you like bland soup. The place is small with a communal table in the middle.

When you want ramen but you want it to be a little seafoody--this is the place for you! Shrimp Trio: Get I'm a sucker for thin noodles so this was a pleasant surprise. I also love that they gave me the option to have the shrimp peeled as well! (not sure if this is normal but I'll gladly take it!) The broth was of course was of course more fishy/seafoody but that's what you're here for and it was great. Although, I would say that adding more chili oil made it amazing. Spring Rolls: Maybe? They're the deep fried kind and has a nice crunch to it. It's decent/enjoyable but because you're in OC, this would probably be mid/bottom tier. It's a cozy little shop on the lower floor of the mall area a lot of other restaurants. The service was decent and they skipped over me when taking orders but I wasn't too annoyed. Food: 7/10 Atmosphere: 6/10 Service: 6/10 Value: 5/10

Le Shrimp Noodle Bar is one of the food stalls in the Bloomingdale's side at South Coast Plaza. They advertise themselves as the country's first shrimp broth and also utilize wok hei to add depth of flavor. They have smaller tables around the exterior and one large communal table in the middle. A1 SIGNATURE TRIO SHRIMP NOODLE ($18.95) - this is their famous noodle with shrimp broth. The broth was fine but we felt like there was just so little of it. We ran out of the broth half way through the noodles and there was nothing left at the bottom. Also, there was only one wonton which was pretty sad. 3/5 B1 EBIKO PRAWN PASTE TOSSED NOODLE ($14.25) - this is their dry noodles which we got with thin noodles. This dish and the chili vinaigrette sauce reminded me of a cross between a jajangmyeon and a black vinegar-based Szechuan dish. The spice was a nice add and this was our favorite dish. 4/5 F4 BRAISED SCALLION SOY CHICKEN ($9) - unfortunately this was our least favorite dish. The sweet soy sauce mixture itself was room temperature and the chicken was not much warmer. Personally we didn't think it was worth the price and was something we could make at home. 2.5/5 Overall we were pretty disappointed with the food. The flavor was fine but it didn't quite hit the spot we were hoping for. The service was great though!

We had been here a long time ago, but on a relatively quiet day today, my wife and I were deciding between Le Shrimp or Pho Holic next door. We decided to give this spot another try. As soon as we walked in--no host at the front, just a small space--the waitress, with an attitude, immediately told us, "You can wait outside" after we said, "Table for two." Mind you, most of the tables were empty. With customer service like that, who needs customers? We looked at each other and just went to Pho Holic instead.

My friends and I got the shrimp signature bowl combo , which was worth it for the price. It came with an appetizer (small serving, we got the rolls) and drink plus the big bowl of noodles + broth. It was flavorful but wished I added some more toppings. Additions cost extra, ranging $1-2 more. The seating is a small area since it's clumped next door to other food places, but you're still able to enjoy the food in your section and people watch! It's lively area that reminds me of a market/food court. The bathrooms are very nice !! You have to walk out of the noodle bar and follow signs to it.

It tastes shrimpy, per the name lol. But the food overall tasted quite one dimensional. They seem to use quality ingredients, so everything tastes good individually. Just when packaged together, it doesn't quite work out. Regardless of whether you get the chicken or the shrimp, they kinda all taste the same too. Worth it you like shrimp I guess?

I would recommend for you to come during the happy hour if you're able to. If you like shrimp, I would definitely recommend the shrimp ramen. The broth has a very rich shrimp flavor to it. The service was relatively quick even when it was quite busy. The actual restaurant is kind of small, not a lot of room for a large party. Overall, would recommend if you're a shrimp lover. I'd come again but it was a bit on the pricier end.

The shrimp broth packs a delicious umami punch--a must try if you're a shrimp lover! I ordered the noodle soup with the unpeeled shrimp; it's a bit more work to peel, but the extra flavor from the shrimp head is worth it. It's in a bustling spot in the food court of the mall, but service was quick and I didn't have to wait long for lunch on the weekend. I haven't tried any other broth like theirs, so I'll definitely come back!

I like to start out with the good things, so let me start out by saying that the service was lovely, above and beyond. Love you Okay now im gonna have to be real about the food. The dry noodles (not pictured) are essentially just chili oil on egg noodles, and then the soup noodles taste like just ramen, i wasnt getting that shrimp umami that much. Still decent and satisfying for sure. Ok but this spinach was literally trying to kill me. My eyes were squinting and my lips were tightened into a little tiny pucker bc the saltiness of this spinach was through the actual roof. Straight up soy sauce. My dad has high blood pressure and i was genuinely concerned like you need to add less sauce to this dish. Again the people here are so nice and i would def check it out if you are interested in a shrimp centric ramen type meal.

A unique take on ramen, Le Shrimp Noodle Bar is the 1st restaurant in the US to focus on shrimp broth ramen & noodle dishes. It's located in the Collage food hall in Bloomingdale's at South Coast plaza underneath Paradise Dynasty. I ordered the A5 Prawn Chicken Wonton Noodles on my most recent visit and my bowl was delicious! The broth was rich and creamy and full of shrimp flavor. I added a side of chili oil on the side for a bit of spice. The noodles had a great chewy texture and clung to the broth well and the wontons had a good amount of filling inside and the skin had a great texture on the outside. Overall, I had a delicious meal here and the service from the staff was friendly and quick. The ambience overall is quite relaxed and there's usually a decent amount of people dining throughout the day. I'll be back again soon to try the rest of the dishes on the menu for sure!

Came on a Friday for lunch and was seated right away. Our server took great care of us and was attentive to all our needs. You have to order through the QR code and they will bring out the food. A1 Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle- 3.5/5: If you are looking for your typical Japanese ramen taste this will not be it. It's more like a Chinese noodle soup flavor. However, I still thought it was good. The broth is thick and rich with a vivid shrimp taste. Got the thick noodles and it had a slight baking soda taste. B1 Ebiko Prawn Paste Tossed- 3.5/5: I did enjoy this dish, but it tasted like something you could mix up at home if you had some soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil at hand. Personally I'd pass on this for that reason. Got the thin noodle for this one and it didn't have the baking soda taste.

This noodle bar always seems to be busy but their service is super quick and everything comes out in a timely manner. These Chicken Wontons are a good starter and the cucumbers are refreshing and crisp. They even have this crispy prawn bun and little shrimp tacos. For the main entree I went with the signature trio shrimp noodle dish and I add black garlic oil. You can definitely taste the shrimp broth and it comes with shrimp, prawn and chicken wontons. But they have a lot of variations of noodle dishes to choose from. This isn't too big of a place but it's downstairs in the food court If you want more food breakdowns Follow me on IG @ToshiEats

The service and ambiance were excellent. We went on a week night with no week but we have seen that it's super busy on the weekend. We had the shrimp ramen and everything was well prepared, flavorful and the service was top notch. It just wasn't my personal cup of tea! I can understand the hype as shrimp ramen is not as common and the soup was rich and flavorful.

Came here for solo lunch while shopping at South Coast. Food: I got the A1 with thick noodles. The bowl came with 2 prawns, 2 prawn balls, and 1 wonton and some cut cabbage. It was served hot and I got some chili oil on the side. The soup was salty with prominent seafood flavor, but not much depth beyond that. It tasted more complex with the chili oil. I was a little disappointed that my bowl only had 1 wonton. For almost $20, I would have expected an even number of each topping. The portion was just enough for me, but for a bigger appetite this would not be filling. Service: I was seated at the bar almost immediately. I came at the beginning of the lunch rush, so didn't receive any water until my food came out. I had no issues with my service, but I overheard an older customer request a fork 3+ times before receiving it. All in, I wasn't impressed by the soup noodles so likely won't revisit since there are SO many good Asian noodle spots in the area.

Tucked away on the ground floor of Bloomingdales at South Coast Plaza, Le Shrimp Noodle Bar evokes the vibrant charm of a Singaporean hawker center. This cozy spot presents a unique concept: prawn broth ramen, a meticulously crafted melody in two movements. Plump prawns are first kissed by the oven's warmth, acquiring a hint of smokiness and a blushing sweetness. Then, in a slow, eight-hour simmer, they surrender their essence to a fragrant broth, where they intertwine with chicken and a touch of enigmatic spices. The crown jewel is the Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle ($19). This dish presents a harmonious trio of textures: the yielding embrace of handmade ebiko prawn paste, the delicate juiciness of succulent prawn and chicken wontons, all waltzing in a bowl of the aforementioned prawn broth. Diners can choose springy egg noodles, voluptuous rice noodles, or slender vermicelli to complete the composition. While the egg rolls ($5 for 3) - three golden, crisp shells filled with whispers of vegetables and accompanied by a playful sweet and sour sauce - offer a pleasant diversion, they lack a touch of inspiration. Service, unfortunately, fell short during my group's visit. Inattentiveness led to forgotten orders, requiring a gentle reminder. While Le Shrimp Noodle Bar may not achieve Michelin-starred heights, it offers a comforting, albeit somewhat pricey, escape for those seeking a taste of Singaporean-inspired prawn ramen with a touch of hawker-center spirit.

The first shrimp broth in the US The rich broth is absolutely amazing! Highlights of the menu: A1 Signature trio shrimp noodle A2 Big prawn & braised scallion soy chicken (thigh meat) shrimp noodle 3. Egg for side dish 4. Veggie for side dish - the sauce is good! A cozy place in South Coast plaza food court. The flow is fast so if you see a line don't be panic. You can scan QR code for menu and ordering, very efficient system where they can use less labor and convenient. You can choose the thickness of noodles and if you want your shrimp peeled or not. Highly recommended!

I had a sore throat and was craving broth. Ordered the a1 shrimp trio noodle, which came with jumbo shrimp (with shell), shrimp fishcake, and woodear mushroom wonton. I also got the pickled cucumber, which tasted very similar to a Korean cucumber dish I knew. My favorite part was the fishcake, which contained ebiko roe inside. It was a pleasant popping experience. The woodear mushroom wonton was lovely too - I wish there was more in the dish! The broth tasted more like Vietnamese bun than ramen. This isn't a criticism - I love bun - but a general statement for people to know about what they're getting! Service was wonderful, and I appreciated the shrimps on the decor.

Bad food, too salty and very little "umami" as they claim. I came here once when they just opened and it was really bad, but an instagram influencer convinced me it's good so i thought they must have changed something. I thought wrong. Food was bad, Soup was bad, soupless one was bad. Note: Their thick and thin noodles are of similar size, thick is curly noodle and thin is straight noodles. thats the main difference.

Went on a weekday and there was still a wait. The restaurant is not that big and the seating arrangement could be better. The middle communal table is a waste of space, especially if the host just lets the customers sit anywhere they want. I am used to having to share tables in Asia so it's not a big deal. Some customers just lack common courtesy and take up unnecessary space because they have strollers or children or put their purses on the seats. We ordered a regular ramen and a dry one. I actually preferred the dry one better because it was not as salty. The broth is good but just too overpowering. The shrimp is cold and doesn't really have a taste because it is not seasoned. I was disappointed with the meal, I had high expectations and it didn't hit the spot.

I recently had the opportunity to dine at Leshrimp Noodle Bar, and it was truly a memorable experience. The shrimp noodles were flawlessly prepared, with perfectly cooked shrimp and noodles that had just the right texture. The rich, flavorful broth elevated the dish, and the spicy chili noodles were a standout for anyone who enjoys a little heat. The service was exceptional, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who made excellent recommendations throughout the meal. The atmosphere was modern and welcoming, offering a relaxed vibe that's perfect for any occasion. Considering the generous portions and reasonable prices, Leshrimp Noodle Bar provides great value. All in all, it's a fantastic destination for seafood lovers, and I'll definitely be coming back!

I always enjoy eating at this restaurant. It is conveniently located at South Coast Plaza by the Bloomingdale side. There are plenty of parking spot right outside and you walk right in and go down to the escalator and you'll find the restaurant! The food is very flavorful. I always get their dry tossed noodle, but for the winter I think the soup broth is also a great option. There are plenty of seating in the restaurant that I think is best for small groups no more than four. The server was super friendly and his service was excellent. We enjoyed our meal a lot.
