"An eagle-eyed reader of East Bay Nosh spotted that Noody, the build-your-own instant noodle restaurant on Berkeley’s Durant Avenue, has shut down. Simple Dish, a Chinese restaurant offering shu mai, brisket steam pot, and more, has opened in the Noody space." - Justine Jones

I ordered the Tom Kha Udon soup to go, I like the fact that if you order to go the broth it’s separate from the noodles and the rest of the ingredients. The soup broth was really good it had alot of flavor to it. The chicken was really tender. I will be ordering again.

Not gonna lie, at first I was skeptical and thought to myself that I could just make these noodles at home if they’re just gonna use instant noodles! But I gave it a try and they’re honestly really good if you’re really hungry and in the area! I’ll probably come back again.

I really like this place. I got the curry katsu and it was really good. It was a little expensive but the service was really good and the place was very clean. The katsu was very good and nicely presented. I’d definitely go again.

service is fast, food is delicious. my favorite is carbonara, also tried pad thai, garlic fried chicken, ramyeon bbq pork etc. the only thing is that the pink milk is NOTHING like the photo- it looks straight up like pepto bismol and I have no idea what flavor it is, it just tastes artificial.

Came here after an event at CAL, affordable, delicious, and lots to choose from. Easy seating, we liked the garlic butter noodles, chicken satay, corn cheese, and bread bombs. Kids loved it too!

Honestly one of my favorite spots in Berkeley. The concept is so simple yet so delicious! The ramen comes with a free drink as well. I wasn’t expecting the tea to be as good considering it was free, but it impressed me. For sure my go to drink and ramen spot now. I’m so impressed with how well and high quality tasting the food here is. I was so impressed, can’t wait to come back to try something different!

Outstanding lil' noodle shop. Their Pad See Ew was so incredibly good. I asked for spicy and their house chili is very nice. I will certainly be coming back here. Bought some for my mother and she said how much it reminded her of real Thai food back home in Rachaburi!!! 💯💯💯

Split a noodle dish and a rice dish with a friend - both were super tasty. Recommend the home made chili sauce strongly!!!!!

We were walking around the area looking for some noodles. This place seems new, and is really close to the school. The place is aesthetic and Instagramable with all the instant noodles displayed along the wall. You order through the iPad by the front or the staff can take your order. We sat down and waited a while even though we were the only table in the restaurant. Our food came in and it looked good. They use disposable plates and bowls even for dine-in. I am guessing they don't have a lot of staff in house so they use disposables to avoid having to wash a lot of dishes. I didn't mind it too much, at least it wasn't plastic. My dish was okay. The meat was dry and the cheese was greasy. It left me feeling horrible and wanting a salad. My friend said her soup wasn't that good. And my boyfriend did like his fried chicken and noodles. Overall I think it was a cool concept. Making instant noodles gourmet. But I don't think I will come back. More of a one time experience.

We were searching for a quick noodle place. We ordered BBQ pork over rice and pork belly with noodles. This is our first time here. Most items are about $12 - 14. The bbq pork was good but the meat slightly tough. The pork belly was good and the noodles a little spicy. You can also order instant noodles or a soup dish, but we opted for a rice place and noodle dish. There's quite a few menu options. You can help yourself to a cup of water which was convenient and helpful. There are two kiosks where you can order food and it was ready fairly quickly in less than 10 minutes. They send you a text when your order is ready. Or you can order directly from the cashier. There's a service fee too added to the bee which I did not expect. You will get charged .10cents for bag fee for take-out orders. Seating is casual with tables for 2 or 4. We didn't know about the 1-hour free parking across the street. That would have saved us some time driving around looking for parking.

Listen, I'm not going through my second childhood, more like my 17th. I'm not sure what gravitates me toward the Sather Gate Center, but it seems to pull me in. Jamie W. and I go to Yogurt Park all the time because we admire their technique of folding the toppings inside the froyo. However, I was disheartened by the lackluster Korean food I had at T-Toust (review: https://yelp.to/Sr0Of0OlW9). Only begrudgingly did I allow myself to try Noody like I was a freshly scrubbed undergrad looking for a between-classes meal. The reality was that I was hungry enough to try it against what's left of my better judgment. I have to admit my verdict was that it was pretty good for what it was. I had the $13 Beef Noodle Soup with beef brisket and flat rice noodles. Mixed in the broth were bean sprouts, bok choy, green onion, and cilantro (photo: https://yelp.to/eWvSDYTaH5). Downtown to the carton container, it was honestly like a Cup o' Noodles with a bit more character and a tad more flavor. Packages of familiar Asian instant noodles were cheekily used as decorating elements against the dining area wall. I could envision eating here after my Comp Lit class at Dwinelle. FOOD - 3 stars...surprisingly hearty beef noodle soup in a cardboard container AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...open space with a contemporary touch SERVICE - 3 stars...just counter service TOTAL - 3 stars...reasonably good execution at this student-targeted eatery RELATED - Exploring Berkeley?

Still either a small hit or a big miss. The inside is cute and there is ample seating, with water provided if needed. They do not do the Thai Iced Tea promo anymore which makes it less enticing to go, given that it is $10 to $13 instant noodles topped with vegetables, a dish that could be made at home. Service is nice, the waiters bring the food over which is sweet of them. There is also little contact as you order food on the kiosk or online through Snackpass, which streamlines processes. Beef Noodle Soup: I like the noodles alot in this one, but the vegetables are lacking with small sprigs of cilantro. The soup is very salty from the instant noodles that were given. Meatballs are harmonious with the soup though. Garlic Noodles: The meat is really chewy and the egg is overcooked on the bottom, which I wished was more dispersed around the noodles instead of the egg being so concentrated.

I've ordered from Noody a few times through Snackpass and I always get the Ramyeon BBQ Pork. I think it's one of their more popular items and it's definitely my favorite. It's very tasty and flavorful. Though it is a bit pricey which is why I don't come here more often but I would totally recommend trying this place out.

Yelp
Everything I've had here has been top-notch! Tom Kah, fried chicken with egg, curry, ramen--you name it, and it's going to be amazing! I especially love the Tom Kah; it's sweet, flavorful, and doesn't break the bank. For a snack, try the fried chicken--KFC has nothing on this! Alex, our server on the weekends, always greets us and makes us feel at home. Ambiance is chill. Not fancy, just your normal sit down and order/pay before you receive your food. It's my go-to spot whenever I'm near the campus.

Piping hot delicious food prepared in the back kitchen served in compostable trays. The screen make the ordering process clear and simple. You can eat for under $15. Tucked away, look for it.

This is like ultimate lazy dinner option LOL. Dressed-up instant noodles? Yes pls! Noody is located in that weird passageway through Durant and Bancroft. Tough to park in this area with the constant food delivery drivers, so I typically park wherever I can on Bancroft and walk. Between the hot pink neon sign and the aroma of fried chicken wafting throughout, you can't miss it. Staff here are super nice and accommodate any food adjustments, with orders out within 10 mins. They're generous with the fresh toppings and really stack on the protein. I usually stick to their signature bowls, but they have a fun build-your-own option as well. For $15, it's not a bad deal for the amount of creativity in each bowl.

Food: 9/10 Service: N/A (pay at the counter) Wait time: 10 minutes for food to come out after paying Portion size: large Value: 8/10 First time coming here! I stumbled upon it when I went to yogurt park and checked out the other restaurants in the little plaza. Then when I was craving noodles and I remembered this place! My first impression of this place was "why are people paying $13 to $15 per meal for Ramen noodles you could make at home?" But then I just decided to roll with it because lots of people were there and I wanted to see what the hype was! I'm so glad I stayed and ordered food!!! We ordered the beef and broth and the Spicy BBQ Ramen. These were 2 choices were on the menu as a meal and you can choose your noodles option. There is also a part of the menu where you can customize your entire meal and pick your noodles, meat choices, veggies and toppings! When our dishes came out we were in "ahhhh" so much meat per entree it made the meal worth the money! For my beef and broth dish there was a lot of meat (so much I gave some to my hubby) and was super tender and melted in my mouth. I was in the comfort food mood and this really hit the spot for me. The meat and veggies were fresh and the noodles cooked just right with the bouncy texture. The Spicy BBQ Ramen was also good. The meat was tender and also had a lot! It came with an egg too so my husband was happy with all his protein! It also filled us up! We were so full afterwards. I would definitely come back again and try more creations! Now I know what the hype is about for Noody! Also note that there isn't a restroom and you have to use the public parking lot bathroom across the street. So come prepared if you don't want to use it!

I love coming to Berkeley for their food options. UC Berkeley kids are blessed. Especially with this place which has a wide variety of customizable noodle options--fried to broth and many toppings. The interior is such a cute space and I love the overall aesthetic. It's super cute and a perfect place for college students to appreciate the convenience and creativity that they can build with instant noodles. The service is 10/10, I checked in and received a free Thai tea! The ordering is simple with a touch screen kiosk which is common in this area. My food was estimated to be ready in 10-20 but it came in about 5 minutes, I kid you not! Whenever you're in the area be sure to check this place out.

Yelp
Food: I ordered spicy ramyeon BBQ pork that came with cheese and egg on top and tom yum. Both were tasty and flavorful despite they are using instant noodle. The tom yum was spicy and sour as it should be, tasted like it was coming from a Thai restaurant Interior: Some dine-in seating. Usually, it is not packed. The small restaurant locates in the Sather Lane alley with other restaurants The price is high for instant noodle but the topping or the meat justifies it. Still, it is cheaper than other places for a quick and filling lunch in-between classes Tip: you can park for free for one hour in the garage across the street

I'm nearly half a year late in writing this review, sorry! I stopped by Noody when it had just opened and took advantage of the free Thai iced tea promo. I ordered a paldo jajangmyun with tofu, boiled egg, corn, bok choy, and mushroom. I find it fun to be able to customize my dish, so that's definitely a plus of this place since you can either choose between some premade creations on the menu or build your own by picking a noodle option and the ingredients you want to add. This also makes it a little easier if you're vegetarian or have some other dietary restrictions. I haven't had this particular type of instant noodle (the Paldo jajangmyun) before. It did not have as strong taste of black bean sauce as I was expecting; the black bean part of it is very mild. Overall it was still yummy and savory and I appreciate being able to put in various vegetables and proteins. It is a little pricey given one of the main ingredients is literally instant noodles though, but I will acknowledge the premise is fun and I haven't previously encountered a similar restaurant in the area.

Garlic Noodle Fried Chicken -- a delicious snack! The garlic noodles and the chicken tasted so good together. The chicken was really warm and fried freshly! The breading that was used to coat the chicken reminds me of something you would eat an amusement park. Overall the food was ready quickly! And next time I would like to try their other instant noodles! I really liked their variety.

Who would've thought someone could fancy up instant ramen and be successful?! Today was my first time at Noody. My coworker recommended we try it because I said I was hungry. How much could a bowl of instant ramen fill me though? I ordered the Garlic Chicken Noody bowl through Snackpass and then headed on over to pick it up and eat it there. When I got the bowl, I was surprised at how much fried garlic chicken there and how nicely fried it was. And on top of everything was the runny fried egg. At the suggestion of my coworker, I took off the lid and put a few pieces of chicken on to the lid to cool so I could start eating the noodles. The noodles are the thin packaged ramen noodles but these were infused with garlic as well. I was able to eat half of the bowl before I had to stop. They also have a special; get a free Thai iced tea with your order on Snackpass. I also poured myself a cold glass of water from the container by the cashier. I definitely will be back to try their Beef and Broth bowl and maybe the Tom Yum Chicken bowl. A solid additional to the college eats!

In a nutshell: make it fancy, instant ramen ver. ___________ Stumbled upon Noody with my roommate while taking a shortcut through the cool passageway back to my dorm, and we couldn't go without checking it out. Ten stars to the store's interior design-from the hot pink neon sign to the wall of aesthetic instant ramen packages, Noody guarantees a satisfying dinner and cute photos with friends! The concept of fancy instant ramen intrigued my friend and I (it totally sounds like an oxymoron), and we both ordered the most popular option on the menu: garlic noodle fried chicken ($13). Enjoyed the slick garlic butter noodles, which were flavourful and generously portioned, but I found the strips of fried chicken had softened and lost their crispy texture. From the perspective of my college student bank account, $13 for a dish we could technically whip up ourselves is on the pricer side, so I probably won't be going back, but Noody's definitely worth a try for anyone curious about "gourmet" instant ramen.

2023/04/17 17:00 customizable noodles with inspiration from several Asian cuisines - they use a variety of noodles: instant noodles, udon, rice noodles, etc. - some people look down on them for using instant noodles, but noodles are noodles Ramyeon BBQ Pork ($13.00): Buldak with cheese, onions, carrots, BBQ pork (I substituted fried pork belly), fried egg - they accommodated my substitution even though fried pork belly wasn't one of the options on Snackpass - very tasty and spicy but a little too oily - pork belly was fatty and crispy (and greasy) - big portion with generous amounts of toppings Thai Ice Tea ($5.00) - got it for free with Yelp coupon - solid Thai tea, sweet but not excessively so

$15 for a cup of noodles (instant ramen) is some high time for inflation. The promo with the free Thai iced tea softens the sting a little bit. The taste was fine and it comes with plenty of ingredients with massive amount of carbs. Good if you're in a pinch to get something warm and soupy but definitely other options in Berkeley if you don't mind waiting a while.

Back again at Noody! With the winter weather upon us (I'm a wimp when it's colder than 65 degrees lol), I gravitate towards warm and hearty dishes. I ordered the classic crispy chicken with egg and garlic noodles again. My friend did the spicy pork bowl with Thai tea. The portions are huge! You get so much chicken and the buttery garlic noodles pair so well with it. I'm hooked! I came here twice this week lol. I do wish the interior space was warmer though! It's an open floor plan with the outdoor hallway corridor running by it, so it is what it is. Come get yourself some noodles!

Great portion sizes, it's basically instant noodles. The one time I had it it was rather oily but honestly a comfort food! good location for students, parking is rather limited.

Karen C.

Since my last review I've come back a bunch of times without incident and I'm happy to say Noody has become a staple in my restaurant rotation! It's fast, tasty, and affordable. What more could you ask for? I've only ever had their noodle dishes so I can't speak to the appetizers or rice, but everything I've had has been delicious and something I wouldn't be able to try anywhere else. Thanks for breathing life into the Berkeley food scene!

Not sure about the high ratings here. I got the fried rice with crispy chicken, just to start with what I consider easy stuff that's hard to mess up too badly (and can be GREAT if done well.) The fried rice was grey and lifeless, and a pretty small portion. I don't know how one can make fried rice that's salty, oily, and has decent veg bits and still have it taste so... meh. It was, fine, I guess. Uncle Roger would have belted out at least 15 haiiiyaaas for this though. The crispy chicken was inedible. SOAKED in grease, that was the primary flavor - deep fryer grease flavor. I tried one piece but realized my GI would punish me for eating any more, so that was that. I wish I could say at least it was cheap, but $15 for a handful of rice and a single chicken breast murdered in a deep-fryer is a tidy sum for what I got. Edit: Someone from Noody reached out to help, so +1 star for wanting to be better.

Yelp
13 dollars for a cup of instant ramen? Pretty steep admittedly. However, portion sizes are VERY generous, as they should be considering the price point. Garlic noodles with fried chicken is pretty yummy; the fried chicken is very crispy on the outside while juicy on the inside and there's enough chicken to cover half the bowl. The noodles themselves were also quite filling and the garlic and butter was infused nicely; no additional sauces necessary. It's a very heavy meal though, and I personally had a hard time finishing it though, but it tasted good; good for left overs! I also tried the beef noodle soup; portions were actually pretty massive for it. The flavor of the soup was good and the meat quality was also solid, but the noodles (I choose rice noodles) must've been poor quality. Even before I started my meal, I noticed that my noodles were very soggy and not even half way through, they had absorbed all the soup. I probably will not be ordering rice noodles from here again considering that I ended up tossing half of it away because the noodles were so soggy. If you get this item, I recommend getting a different noodle. UPDATE 10/7/22: I tried their pad thai thinking it'd be as good as imm Thai's (sister restaurant), but it did not hit the mark. The pad thai was too sour (not sweet enough) and the noodles were fried; for a stir fry dish, it did not seem stir fried. Portion size wise though, there is a lot of food. Will not be getting the pad thai from here again; it was pretty disappointing. The Thai tea here is also pretty good; so far, I've only claimed it as a Yelp check in offer (do it for a free Thai tea!) but they fill the cup to the brim with ice? Which is kind of baffling; normal price is 5 dollars, so if this were the case with a paid item, I would not be willing to fork over the money for a cup of ice. Interior wise, it's super cute; the place is decorated with instant noodle packs and it's a nice place for groups. However, beware of flies. I dined in, and throughout the meal, I had to keep swatting away flies, which made for an annoying eating experience. I understand that it's a part of it's open storefront though, but something should be done about the flies. Overall, I still would come back to try their original items (they have a lot of interesting items and for the portion size I would be willing to keep trying). However, I wouldn't necessarily recommend getting custom noodles, just because you can probably buy it yourself for a lot cheaper and customize it yourself on your own time. Give the place a try; it has good potential!

When I first heard of Noody, I'll admit I was skeptical at first, but Noody is able to take simple instant ramen and elevate it to a whole different level. They have a variety of items; for your make-your-own bowl you can choose between 18 types of noodles, 18 proteins, and 11 vegetables. Your order comes with your choice of noodles, 3 proteins, and 3 vegetables. You'll order through Snackpass, but the workers were so kind and offered us help because they knew we weren't sure what to order. I decided to choose one of the premade bowls and ordered the Garlic Noodle Fried Chicken, which came with a complimentary Thai Tea. The Garlic Noodle Fried Chicken comes with garlic butter, green onion, fried chicken, and a fried egg. The fried chicken is the best chicken I've ever had. The outside is so crispy yet the inside is so tender and juicy; it is also perfectly seasoned. The fried chicken is worth the price point and makes the ramen worth it. I even brought leftovers home, and it was still crispy and tender when I ate them hours later. Noody will be my new favorite spot near campus! Their chicken is amazing, and completely changes how I think about instant ramen.

Noody is a new restaurant that opened in the old Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks location. I'm sad to see Shihlin go because their chicken seasoning was delicious, but it's been tough for many businesses to keep afloat during the pandemic. I saw this location was undergoing renovation and wasn't sure what was coming but today I finally got to check it out! It's an interesting concept. Ordering is done through Snackpass. It looks like you can either order noodles that the restaurant makes (a set dish like at a normal restaurant) that are served to you in a cardboard noodle bowl (like a cup noodles ramen bowl) or you can choose a type of instant ramen noodle and additional toppings and the restaurant will put it together for you. I'm not sure how much I want to pay a restaurant to fancy up my instant noodles, but I guess people always say they can just do that at home and rarely do, so rather than just eating your shrimp-flavored ramen with nothing but the spice and oil packets to liven up your meal, maybe a college student wouldn't mind paying extra for some actual toppings. I opted for one of the restaurant dishes however and got the Udon Duck. The amount they give you is actually more than it looks. The bowl was packed full. The flavor was pretty good and the duck was cooked well but there was no indication that this menu item is spicy and it was really spicy! Had I known I probably would have ordered a different item. Luckily they have a water dispenser and for a limited period of time each bowl of noodles comes with a free Thai iced tea (yes, I was enticed by the promotion) which helped with the spice level. Since I was only looking for a light meal, I ate about half then took the rest home as leftovers. Since they're already packed in a take out container, all you have to do is ask for a plastic lid. Simple! The proprietor was also really attentive and checked in a couple times as to how I was doing. That might also have been because I was the only one there though. I do hope business picks up - it's tough opening during summer break. FYI, there are some slightly risqué soup-themed free stickers in a jar at the front which I thought was a cute touch (with a name like Noody I guess they couldn't resist)! Noody has the potential to be pretty popular but we'll see how the college crowd feels about paying for fancy noodles as opposed to sticking with the dirt cheap do-it-yourself variety. In the meantime, I'll probably be back to try a different variety of noodles from the set menu. Maybe the carbonara next time!

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! My go to is the pad Thai with ground pork and it hits the spot every time. Prices are pretty standard, being around $15 with good size portions. Food comes quickly and the restaurant has a fun ambiance.

Blair C.

Yelp
Way too expensive for ramen. I got the shin black and it's like they barely put any of the full seasoning in it. I got Napa cabbage in mine and the soup just tasted like boiled cabbage. This place just doesn't make sense to me. Why am I paying so much for instant ramen and boiled meat when the soup doesn't even have the full seasoning packet in it??

Really good atmosphere and delicious food! Friendly service and quick reception. Would recommend for anyone to visit here often.

**I've only ever gotten this food delivered so please keep that in mind.** With that being said, I absolutely LOVE the food! They do a fantastic job of doctoring up instant ramen. I've had the fried chicken with garlic noodle, the noodle with pork belly, the beef noodle soup and the tom yum seafood noodle soup. The portions were generous and all so delicious!! The only thing I was disappointed in was the fried rice. It was bland.

I went in yesterday for the first time while in town to try them out. They are still very new, but the atmosphere, food and service were all very pleasant. I really like the idea of being able to creating your noodles. Very good idea. The next time I am back in Berkeley I expect to make another visit. Well worth it. I would recommend them with 5 stars all the way.

Sonali S.

Yelp
Really big quantity which is awesome. I think all the dishes are super flavorful but there's extreme amounts of cheese and oil so it's definitely not the healthiest. This will be a great comfort food spot for me!

Delong T.

Just had their fried chicken bowl. Great good! Fried egg, good Fried chicken, and good noodles. Sometimes ramen noodles are hard for me to finish but these were some good noodles! The dish is a tad on the salty side though so be prepared to go in with a glass of water. The decor of the restaurant is nice and bright too plus there are even outlets to charge your phone! Overall a banger of a food stop, I'll definitely be returning!

Janeyy N.

Yelp
Good looking interior design! Their foods are in great taste. They also give 3 choices of protein and vegetables for your You Make dish. Moreover, they have a promotion of getting a free Thai ice tea with your order. I would say it IS cool spot for hanging out with friends, Cal neighbor must try this place!

Marc P.

Yelp
Thought that my bowl was a little skimpy on the noodles until I got past the chicken! Really good fry and lots of garlicky flavor with the Garlic Chicken Noody bowl. Would have liked a little more of something else to add to the chicken, egg, and noodles though. Noodles were cooked to a good texture, would have preferred a little tougher but that's they way it goes w/ instant. Good touch with the open seating in the alleyway, levels up the area as a whole and free Thai tea when ordering through Snackpass. Will be coming back next week to try other menu options!

Never tried Masala with noodle before. It was so great and tasty. I think that's an awesome idea,  great atmosphere so many choices for different kind of noodles and flavors. They are  so trendy. Good spot for having quick lunch or chill out. Love this place.  Definitely come back again to try other cool dishes.

This place is I got the udon noodle soup which tastes like Tom kha and the noodles with fried chicken and an egg. I love all of the diff type of noodle packets on the wall! It's pricey but the portions are huge. I can make 2 meals out of it. The employees are nice and always check in if you have questions while ordering on the kiosk.

First time trying Noody and I liked it! Ordered the Garlic Noodles with Fried Chicken with an egg on top. The portion were very good and the fried chicken was crispy and seasoned well. Seeing how it's a new restaurant, I really hope they continue with this quality food and good portion for the price!

I absolutely love the Pad See Ew! So delicious! I order ahead and even if I'm running a few mins late, food is piping hot when I get it. Only negative I really have is sometimes the steak isn't charred enough to make it less tough to chew and weirdly, some times the veggie is over cooked. That won't stop me from coming here when I forget my lunch at home. I probably should try something new, lol.

I was skeptical but surprised by how tasty my order was. I ordered the Yum Ma Ma noodle salad, which looks like it's made with Mama instant noodles. Lots of ground pork and 2 juicy shrimp, not overcooked. No lettuce, but tomato, red onion, celery and cilantro. The dressing was the star - it's similar to the dressing you get with larb, savory and tangy with lime juice. Will try this place again.
