Nounou Noodle Bar

Had a great experience at Nou Nou Noodle Bar in Manhattan. The food feels modern yet still rooted in authentic Thai flavors. Highly recommend the Piah (crispy and flavorful), Ribs Kor Rae (super tender and packed with flavor), and the NouNou Talay if you love seafood — fresh and perfectly balanced with Thai herbs. The Cha-Cha Steak was surprisingly excellent, cooked just right with a vibrant Thai twist. Cochin Beef is rich and comforting, great with rice. We also ordered the Burrata Caprese Salad, which added a nice fresh contrast to the stronger flavors. The atmosphere is cozy and intimate — perfect for a date night or a relaxed dinner with friends. Definitely a hidden gem in Manhattan. Would happily come back!

They just opened three weeks ago, and we were impressed! We ordered the Pongteh Pork and the Nounou Talay, and both did not disappoint. The Sukhothai spicy chili-lime broth in the Nounou Talay was incredibly fragrant and flavorful. The Pongteh pork knife-cut noodles had a rich, smoky depth, and the braised five-spice pork belly was melt-in-your-mouth tender. I would definitely come back to try more dishes!

I had a really great experience at this restaurant. The food tasted amazing and was incredibly flavorful. What I loved most was how unique the dishes were — the flavors were creative but still perfectly balanced. You can really tell a lot of thought went into combining different ingredients, and it worked beautifully. I especially enjoyed how the menu offered something different from the usual, which made the whole meal exciting from start to finish. On top of that, the service was excellent. The server was very friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which made the dining experience even better. I would definitely come back again and recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food with a creative twist.

New spot and only opened a few weeks ago. Service was great and they were very helpful with providing recommendations. I went with the HH lemongrass chicken popcorn and the Nounou Talay. The soup had a bright and refreshing broth and each piece of seafood balanced it out really well. Looks like they have a $19 lunch special for a select appetizer and entree. Definitely curious to come back and try out a few more. Probably best for a group of 2 but if you come with a group of 4 that would be a great way to try many things.

Cute relaxing spot! Small but it wasn’t super crowded and I was able to get a spot right away. We got the kurage salad, bata crab noodles, and pongteh pork noodles. All so yummy! The kurage salad has a sesame dressing on it that was delicious. And bata crab had a lot of crab meat, and the pongteh pork was good, on the sweeter side. Would come again to try other dishes.

Absolutely delicious! The flavors were incredible and the presentation was beautiful. You can really taste the quality and freshness in every bite. Friendly service and a great atmosphere too. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!

This restaurant was an impressive dining experience with a warm, modern atmosphere that feels both cozy and refined. Each dish is beautifully presented and creatively crafted, from the perfectly seared steak to the rich Udon pasta and vibrant seafood plates. The flavors are well-balanced, fresh, and thoughtfully combined, showcasing true culinary artistry. The service is attentive, friendly, and professional, completing a memorable experience that is absolutely worth a return visit.

This spot just opened and this is a great new noodle spot in the East Village! Everything is crafted to perfection and is so authentically fresh! One of the best Asian cuisines I’ve had that is similiar to this. I would highly recommend and such a casual spot to come during the week!
