Sen Noodle Bar

I never write reviews but OH my god , my boyfriend and I came in for lunch on a whim , and when i tell you I had one of the best dishes of my life, i’m not exaggerating. Food was so delicious, and everyone there was so sweet. Such a cute little spot too, i had the singapore noodles, and my partner had the boat noodles and we indulged in the mango sticky rice. Might have been the best I’ve had, please please come try this spot, and get the rice before it’s out of season.

What an amazing place to get not only Thai desserts but Thai noodles! They have a wide range of soups, stirfry, dry noodle soups. Super friendly service and great vibe. Their Thai tea was very good too. I highly recommend this place and would come back.

Sen Noodle Bar is a good Thai spot with delicious flavors and an inviting atmosphere. Every dish we tried was good, well-seasoned, and satisfying. The interior has a modern, laid-back vibe that makes it a great place to hang out with friends or grab a quick, flavorful meal. If you’re in the area, definitely check out Sen Noodle Bar—you won’t be disappointed!

Pad Thai was delicious and the tumeric coconut noodles were insane. Such good flavors and loved the vibes inside. Great for a chilly day

We ordered three noddles dishes with the side of soup. The soup is just broth with a bit of herbs, the waiter made sure we are aware of that so no surprises, it tasted good. For the noodles dishes we all opted for lamb for the protein as it not very common. We liked it, and it does have lamb taste that might be heavy for some, it was ok for us. The portions are a bit on the light side it be great if it had 20% more food, especially for the price point (my friend was still hungry after his meal). The people working there are nice and we noticed that the restrooms have complimentary diapers if parents need them.

It’s a hidden gem in Ballard! Each time we go to Balard we dine there. All meals are super tasty, full of many flavors. Staff is very friendly. Atmosphere is low key and cosy. It makes you travel a bit :)

Some fantastic noodles and Thai food here. Got one of the specials, lamb with cumin and loved every bite. Would come again.

One of my favorite places to eat in Seattle a little hidden gem in Ballard. The turmeric fried rice is awesome but the star of the show and probably the dish people don’t realize they should order is the garlic pork with rice wow talk about amazing flavor The wide rice noodle dishes are also really yummy but trust me I go back over and over again for the garlic pork with rice you can’t find it at most Thai places

Wow!!! The first thing I noticed when I arrived was the atmosphere inside. The string lights, plants, and vibrant colors made it feel so cozy. The service was good. The food was the star of the show! My friend and I ordered classic Thai Iced Tea which always hits the spot. We got fresh rolls for our appetizer. The fresh rolls were okay, but I wouldn't order them again. My noodle bowl was INCREDIBLE and warmed me up on a cloudy day in Seattle. I ordered the Baa Mee Giow Muu Dang specialty bowl which had a nice meat broth, some delicious dumplings, noodles, and meat. The flavors were so great!! I cannot wait to come back and try more of their dishes! You've gotta try Sen Noodle Bar if you get the chance !!

Sen Noodle Bar is my go-to spot for cozy comfort food. The vibe is chill and friendly, making the dining experience enjoyable. The service is quick and welcoming, adding a nice touch to the overall atmosphere. Now, onto the good stuff--the garlic pepper pork is a winner. Paired with a tasty Thai tea, it's a combo that's hard to beat. The flavors are spot-on, and you'll find yourself coming back for more. If you're into laid-back vibes, friendly service, and mouthwatering dishes, Sen Noodle Bar is worth checking out. It's a spot that'll keep you coming back!

Always looking to try a new noodle place to throw in the rotation. I have to say Sen Noodle Bar is solid. I had the Guay Tiow Kuar with chicken and it was solid. I love the subtle soy sauce flavor. The dish was hot, nice crunch with the veggies. I think for $17 it was light on noodles & chicken, that's my only knock. But overall nice, will probably try something different next time.

Delicious, flavorful food in a cozy setting! We grabbed lunch here after strolling through the Sunday farmer's market. Service was lukewarm but decently fast. Recommend ordering multiple dishes to share so there's more goodness to go around.

Honestly, I really wanted to love this place when I tried it. But I've been here a few times now always hoping to give it another shot, and being disappointed each time. I feel like while the noodles are usually an okay texture, the rest of the soup is just kinda mid. It's not very hot when it's delivered, the meat isn't very tender and kinda hard to chew, and the flavors just seem a bit imbalanced and bland. Maybe I've just ordered the wrong things, or maybe I've only ever been on off days. Whatever it is, I'm running out of second chances.

Cute cafe vibe, love the food here. The portion size is a bit small, I would suggest to order atleast one dish per person. Great service! Loved their boat noodles, guay tiow kuar and sesame peanut noodles

After passing by this cute spot many times I finally got to try it. There are a lot of Thai/noodle places in the neighborhood so competition is fierce. How we, based on my first visit here the food was quite good! I ended up getting the turmeric coconut noodle soup, which comes with rice noodles tofu and mixed veggies. I really enjoyed the bright flavor of this bowl and would be happy to have it again. I thought the staff was a bit busy but friendly nevertheless. I also liked the ambience of this restaurant, with lots of cute lights hanging from the ceiling! If you're in the area and craving some noodles, I recommend this Thai place!

Allergy conscious (gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, nuts, etc.), options for all, delicious, and super quick service! And the restaurant itself is super cozy. The plantains surprised me with their savory herby glaze and had a great texture. The noodles were great both in and out of soup! Will absolutely be coming back

We ordered three noddles dishes with the side of soup. The soup is just broth with a bit of herbs, the waiter made sure we are aware of that so no surprises, it tasted good.

Found this love after arriving in Ballard and we loved it. Service was fantastic and very welcoming. Inside ambiance is super cute and well decorated. The colors of the walls were very inviting and cute. Food came out quickly. We shared two dishes and were blown away. Super simple filling portions for a fair price. Hard to find nowadays. I was obsessed with the lamb curry fried rice ! Hope to return some day, this was my favorite meal in Seattle.

Came here on a chilly night and after the local ramen place was closed as well as wanting to try something new, Sen Noodle was up to bat. Directly nextdoor to Pestle Rock (a visit for next time) we stepped in. The ambience is decent with 4-5 tables, with some additional ones in the back there is a fair amount of space and ideal for a party of 5 or less people. Step up to the counter to be seated. It seems like there is a slight understaffing here, perhaps it was just in this visit. The guy helping us was the host, waiter, busser and cashier. He was running around all over the place. He did pretty well at it, but it was a bit much, especially as it was a fairly busy Tuesday night just as the 6pm dinner time was striking. So, what was on the menu tonight? I got the Ba mee giow muu dang - an egg noolde bowl with pork dumpling, onion, bean sprout, choysum, yuchoy and other additions in a clear broth. I think this was the weakest part of this bowl. The ingredients had a fair amount of flavor but the broth though hot didn't have much flavor as opposed to the Turmeric coconut soup I got to try which is also on the menu. For a starter I got the spice corn patty which was good. Vegan and gluten free, though again what really elevated it was the sweet chili sauce it comes with. So good I had to ask for an additional cup. Also got the Yam rolls, I'd skip these. They're about is good as spring rolls from any local Asian restaurant. Decent enough Noodle spot among many with some good choices but kind of average overall. 3.5/5.

Looking for a place to eat after a hangover(not just for this purpose tho...)? I went to Sen Noodle Bar after going to one of my good friend's bday parties and it helped a lottt. It is a cute little modernized southeast Asian cuisine place hidden away in Ballard, WA. The main thing that attracted me here is the noodle soups. I always eat some kind of noodle soup after a hangover so I think this spot was good for that. What we ordered: - guay tiow nam w/ Tom yum pork meatball soup - Ba Mee giow muu dang - Deep fried chicken wings (these were my least favorite and not worth mentioning) - Thai tea - Mango juice The Tom yum noodle one was very flavorful and I really like how you can customize the type of noodle. I got the wide noodles. My boyfriend got the Ba Mee giow muu dang which was also really good very similar to other another noodle soup I've had before. I definitely have to try their dry noodles next time! If you like Thai tea, this place makes it pretty good definitely better than some other restaurants. It was a little sweet but Thai tea is just kinda sweet in general. The mango juice was just from the bottle I'm assuming so it was ok. Overall, I would come here again if I'm craving noodle soup! 4.4/5

Modern Thai food, not overly authentic, but tasty enough, and plenty of vegan options. I arrived around 6:30pm on a Friday and there was plenty of seating. I told the server I was looking for vegan options, and he was super friendly and helpful to direct me to the items that could be made vegan. I got: -Rama Salad ($7; vegan version). This can easily be veganized by replacing the steamed chicken with fried tofu strips. This came out about 10 mins after ordering, and comes with lots of spinach, red onion, peanut, a bit of cucumber and carrot, tofu and a rich, sweet peanut sauce. Very tasty. 4/5 -Noodle Soup with Tofu (made vegan by omitting the fish sauce; with wide rice noodles; $13 plus tax). This came with a clear broth, with plenty of wide rice noodles, a bit of Chinese greens and carrots, and steamed tofu cubes. Fairly bland but amped up nicely with the 2 kinds of hot sauce they offer. Still, not all that exciting. 3/5 Overall, very friendly service and very vegan-friendly and knowledgeable. Not a top spot in town for Thai food by any means, but it's a decent spot.

Maybe I ordered wrong dishes The one with sesame sauce is not the best option Hahahahahaha

We needed comfort food during this early winter chill that we're having and thought that noodles would fit the bill. Sen provided good noodles but not necessarily great. The appetizers were better than the main course, IMHO. The difference between 3 and 4 stars for me is whether I'd go back and try again. I think I'd eat there again so 4 stars.

it was okay. the food was alright and the wait time was a bit long. but overall for a quick snack it was good.

Guay Jub and Lamb Curry Fried Rice were amazing dishes. The Guay Jub has a sweetness to it with the perfect heat to balance the flavors and the lamb curry fried rice has flavors like Chinese 5 spice that took the dish to a whole other level. My husband and I were so satisfied with this meal. I would definitely come back here!

I used to rate this high, but it was based solely off one dish (turmeric coconut soup) but even that dish has changed a bit and I don't like it quite as much. I just got the spicy noodle and it's terrible. Over saturated in sauce, way too sweet, and not enough food for $15. And I'm a small person who wasn't that hungry. So yeah, I'd say this place is hit and miss. My husbands garlic pork rice fish was good, but not enough for the price. And was really lacking for what it was. I think sadly this place will move out of our rotation except when I maybe want the one soup. Side note the house made hot pepper you get at the table is amazing.

Really great, not your typical "Thai" restaurant! With a lot more noodle options to choose from... you can really explore what South East Asian flavor can really offer. I tried their Boat Noodle and it was such a pleasant surprise of flavor overload. It's not anything I've had at a typical Thai place. The soup was so delightful. Tangy, sweet, sour, basily... and pulled together so well with rice noodles. The corn fritters could have used a bit more umph. As for someone who grew up with Indonesian Corn Fritters.. I'm always in the search for something that can come close to the flavors of home. In my own opinion.. Indonesian corn fritters are definitely the superior one... so for a place called Sen Noodle... i implore you to try all their noodles instead. I will definitely be back to try more noodles... or just back for more boat noodles.. because they were so damn delicious.

I was in the area walking with my son and decided to explore this place based on the high ratings. Service was really fast, place is small but cozy. Menu seems to have several different options and authentic dishes. Good variety on drinks. We both ordered the turmeric coconut noodle soup with chicken instead of tofu. The broth and chicken were delicious, but the noodles severely overcooked (mushy) and the egg was commercial grade, those than come in a bucket hard boiled versus the typical soft boil freshly made on site. Therefore our 3.5 stars rating.

This was our 1st time here. It's a small place, but we didn't have to wait to get a table. Very creative and vegetarian friendly menu. We picked the Yam Rolls, the Lemongrass Curry Noodles, and the Sesame Peanut Noodles, everything was delicious! The dishes aren't overly huge, but appropriately portioned, made with fresh ingredients. The restaurant was clean. The service prompt and friendly. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

I love to occasionally sit down for noodles and read a book, and Sen Noodle Bar was great for it. It wasn't very busy nor noisy, the servers were kind and patient (I didn't feel rushed out or awkward whipping out a book), and the noodle soup was very flavorful.

A unique Thai spot with many dishes you cannot find at most Thai restaurants in the US. I tried their guay tiow kuar, which consisted of stir fried rice noodles with chicken. It was so good, with the noodles having a nice crunch and chewiness. It is very similar to phad see ew. There are so many things on the menu I want to try when I come by again! Also shoutout to friendly servers!

I enjoyed the food here! The ayam melayu (chicken wings) has a delightfuly crisp exterior and perfectly moist interior. As I main, I got the Guay Jub and it was such a unique dish. The rice noodles are rolled up, the pork spare ribs were yummy and the soup had a pleasant 5 spice smell. My only gripe is that it was waaay too sweet for me, I unfortunately left half a bowl of the soup - opting only to finish the ingredients inside. As a portion size, I think the Guay Jub also feels like its on the smaller side (if you don't drink all the soup). In fact, I had a third portion of rice on top of the Guay Jub and only felt satisfied then. The staff are really friendly and the shop had lots of room on Sunday before noon! I'd love to come back to try more :)

I ordered one of the special noodle soups and it was delicious. The broth, dumplings, and BBQ pork were sooo yummy. It was pouring down rain tonight and the sweet twinkle lights and plants made it feel cozy. They were also playing jazz covers of top 40 songs which added to the comfortable ambience. Good service and good value for Ballard. I recommend it!

I had the best time at Sen Noodle! I came in with some friends, a couple of other out-of-towners and one local, on a Saturday night. It was lively with lots of groups enjoying themselves. I love the decor, it's homey but open and the string lights make it feel cozy but fun. Everyone was in good spirits. It's a sit-down place with table service but feels quite casual at the same time. The food is mostly Thai, with some Malaysian and south-east Asian fusion elements. We shared a couple of appetizers - the spicy giow wontons and the spicy corn patties to start. The wontons were so delicious, the ground pork is savory while the fresh ginger and garlic make it really zingy. Nothing heavy about them! I also really enjoyed the corn patties, which pere gently fried and served with a tasty sweet chili sauce. We all got different entrees, I was tempted in a few directions but went for the I went for the lemongrass curry noodles with tofu. I'm a little wary on lemongrass usually, I find it strong, but it was really well incorporated here. The curry powder on top gave it a nice change of pace and all of the veggies were perfectly cooked and delicious. I also got young coconut juice which was super sweet and fresh. Service was super swift and friendly, they checked in on us throughout, fitting with the fun and lively atmosphere. I wish I could come back every other weekend! Highly recommended.

Good quality ingredients. Vegetables were fresh. We appreciated the locally sourced ingredients. However, we were woefully disappointed by the lack of spice and heat. There was no option for the spice level for online order. Spice is one of the best things about Thai food! We have learned that many PNW folks don't like spice, but the population has changed. Kick it up, and the people will come! Next time, we will bring our own Thai chili sauce.

Bumping up my rating for Sen Noodle Bar. Good food, good ambience, friendly people. Will definitely be back.

By now, I've had quite the variety of different offerings from sen and I am so impressed by how they package their to go food! You can see in my photos I've had quite a variety of their noodle soups, and a few different appetizers. Do not skip out on their fried plantains (aka krob kem). They were quite different than what I had in mind but they are so unique in their flavor - perfect balance of sweet and garlicky savory goodness in a plantain chip. I didn't love the fried chicken nor the corn patties but I can't tell it's amazing when dining in. I'll definitely will try them once I foray into in person dining post pandemic because the rest of their food is so good. The noodle soups - where do I start? I have really enjoyed the complex flavors each dish has brought. So far, I would say in the top are my guay jub (rolled rice noodle with pork spare ribs) and boat noodle soup. The guay jub really shocked me as the filled rice noodles were the stuff of noodle dreams and the broth was amazingly rich and deep in flavors. The boat noodle soup also surprised me because I did not expect to have a spice kick but it was so pleasantly welcomed. Overall, any time I've called here or come to pick up the order, the staff have been so sweet and friendly. I am so happy this place exists and I can't wait to try the rest of the menu!!!

I was in search of a bowl of noodle soup on a cold, rainy day, and checked out Sen Noodle Bar! I'm not sure if this is the most authentic spot, but delicious nonetheless. I had the Ba Mee Giow Muu Dang, one of the special noodle soups, which I chose because of the variety of protein. The clear broth is savory without being too rich, though a bit on the salty side. I also appreciate that there was a good amount of veggies! Service was quick, staff was friendly, and I love how homey it feels here. I'm not vegan or vegetarian myself, but the menu seems to have a good selection for those who are. Portion size and prices are also fair, would definitely recommend stopping by!

Solid spot for noodles. Service is pretty quick and waiters are pleasant. If im looking for a easy clear broth noodle spot that isn't pho this is my go to spot! Ba Mee Giow Muu Dang - I'm usually not a fan of barbecue pork, but I like how they've prepared it here because there's not too much fat. Noodles are cooked well with good texture. Flavors are good (I usually ask for chili to add for an extra kick) and definitely nice to eat after a long day. Only thing I would say is that the dumplings that come with it stick together and they're not very filled. Spicy corn patties - great appetizer, great texture and flavor however did not get the spiciness that was hinted in the name. I've also tried the boat noodles on another trip. And would say that their premade broth was way too sweet. But they were able to give us lime that did the trick to counter balance the sweet.

Pros: good quality flavorful food, authenticity, friendly service, cute decor Cons: not much!

This hit the SPOT. I just wanted some tasty ramen and it was perfect. Took it to go but the atmosphere was very cute

Love everything about this noodle bar. Food tastes authentic. Delicious, and aromatic food. Great portions. Cool, hip decor. Friendly staff. Even though we accidentally changed upon the restaurant, will be definitely coming back.

Love the noodle soup. I have only done takeout. They are really fast and friendly. I think it's a little pricy, so I don't order as often as I would otherwise.

I ordered online for take out today and it was hot and ready 15 minutes later for pick up with a smile from the young gentleman. All 3 noodle soups were delicious (in order of our favorite): Guay Tiow Khaek (for me i added chili oil). Turmeric coconut noodle Boat noodles All were very flavorful and the noodles were chewy and veg was fresh. I'll be back.

We were searching for a place to eat a late lunch after browsing the Ballard Farmers Market and this Thai restaurant was conveniently close. It is highly rated, but I found the food to just be standard. ----- Curry Lamb Pan Mee: pan mee noodles, minced lamb dry-curry, spinach, shallots, green onions, anchovies, toasted coconut, and a sunny-side up fried egg ($15.95). A special entrée that isn't officially on the menu. Upon serving, the waiter advised to first break the egg yolk and mix everything together. The dish was not too oily but didn't have much of a memorable flavor. I couldn't easily distinguish the taste of the minced lamb or fried anchovies. Noodles were chewy and the spinach was fresh. ----- Suki Talay Noodle Soup: cod, shrimp, scallop, bean noodles, napa cabbage, Asian greens, carrots, celery, mushroom, and egg in a clear broth. Served with Suki sauce ($16). My friend commented the soup was rather bland, and that the Suki sauce resembled cocktail sauce instead of being spicy. ----- The place was not busy at 2:30 PM on a Sunday. There are a couple of outdoor bar seats, all of which were occupied.

Got a pickup order of one Spicy Noodle w/ Tofu ($13), one Build Your Own (dry version) w/ Beef & Spinach Noodle ($13), and one black rice pudding w/ coconut ice cream ($6). Everything was delicious. I really liked the seasoning of my build-your-own dry noodle bowl. The spinach noodle was thicker than I preferred but still tasty and al dente. The ice cream part of the dessert all melted since it took a while for us to sit down and eat. Even then, it mixed well with the black rice pudding base and made a good combo. The meal was super cheap as well - as listed above it was $32 in total (no tax or tips included).

Delicious food and really nice service. They are always so friendly. The Ba miu goaw muu dang is my favorite.

Amazing food! We had the Lemongrass noodles and Tumeric Coconut noodle bowl. Super healthy and flavorful

Edit: at this point I have tried quite a few dishes from their menu and I have to say I love them all!! Most of the items on menu are very vegetarian friendly and the staff is very accommodating for special requirements. For example I prefer higher spice level and they always put some chilli on side when requested. Things I have tried and love in no particular order * lemongrass curry noodles * pad kee mao * pad Thai * turmeric curry noodles * monk noodles * spicy noodles * sweet and sour eggplant (lunch special) * mango sticky rice Need I say more about how good they are

Amazing food with super unique and complex flavors! Portion size is a bit small so recommend picking out some appetizers or desserts if you come hungry Guay Jub and Boat Noodles are my fav! One of my top 10 fav restaurants in Seattle - can't wait to try more of the huge menu!

On a Sunday evening, there was a short wait for a table. Food comes out pretty quickly after ordering, so you generally don't have to wait long for turnover. We were initially seated at a table near the door, so we were hit with the cold air every time it opened, but they let us move to another table! We tried a few different noodle dishes, but you really couldn't go wrong with any of them. The ambiance inside is so cozy and definitely gives me open-air/night market vibes. I would definitely return the next time I'm in the area.

Came here on a Friday night after a workout for a date night. This is a Thai restaurant where you wouldn't really expect much but this place was SO GOOD! For dinner, we ordered the phad kee mao (5/5) (wide rice noodles, tofu, egg, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes), Lamb fried rice (5/5) which came with the soup - it was so delicious! It was the best tasting minced lamb fried rice I've ever had! For dessert, we got the black rice pudding with coconut ice cream served with cream. OMG this was Amazeballs. It was soo good! Server was friendly and attentive, he checked in on us to see how we were doing. Hands down, would come here to dine-in or order takeout...Yep, it was that good!

Love their lemongrass curry noodles and tang gwa salad after a long day. Everything is so unbelievably fresh and aromatic. Seriously recommend. And the folks who work there are super awesome too!

When I visited, the restaurant was super busy and the waiter gave us a heads up that there will be an half hour wait on the food order. During our wait, there were always people coming in. After trying this place, I understand why there was a wait and so popular. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. I ordered the fried pork dumpling, spicy corn patties, guay tiow khaek, and boat noodle soup. Everything tasted great and definitely coming back to try other dishes!

My favorite, go-to Asian joint in all of Seattle. I make it a point to visit it multiple times whenever I'm up here because it's a paradise for noodle lovers -- especially dry noodle aficionados like me. I can't get enough of their steamed noodles because they are a healthier choice, isn't heavy, and most importantly delicious. Ingredients always taste fresh. I've tried most variations of dry and soup noodles here and they've all been 10/10 each time. Small, intimate interior and service is always friendly. Praying they make their way down to the Bay Area some time!

Came here on a Saturday evening with a group of friends. The host and server are not the most friendliest people in Seattle for sure. While the quality of food is great, the quantity not so much. I ordered the Pad See Ew and the quantity was half of what you would get in other Thai restaurants all over Seattle. If I am paying 16$+ for an entree, I would expect a whole plate of food. Sadly the server was unapologetic about it and I left the meal more hungry than I came in. Overall I wouldn't come back again unless the portion sizes increase.

I had this place bookmarked for months and so happy I got to try it. I haven't been home all weekend so I knew there wasn't food and I for sure was not going to cook because lazy. I text my siblings asking if they'd like to grab lunch and proceed to send them a bunch of places to choose from since I'm indecisive. My sister chose this place and my brother wanted soup so I picked them up and off we went to Ballard. It's right next door to Pestle Rock which is one of my favorite place for Khaosoy. Anywho, we ordered a bunch of appetizer to share; roti, fried pork wontons, and corn patties. My brother and I both ordered the Guay Tiow Khaek and my sister got the Curry Lam Pan mee. Appetizers were good, we probably wont order the pork wontons again if we come back as they were very lackluster in flavors and size. Corn patties were delicious and rather large in size. I really enjoyed the noodle soup I ordered. Plenty of seafood and perfect portion size. My brother said It was a bit tart for his liking but I really enjoyed the broth as curry usually gets too heavy for me. We both got to try my sisters curry lamb stir fried noodles and agreed it was very flavorful and delicious. Service was lovely, looked like there was only one person taking orders and getting food and drinks out. He was really nice and we felt a bit bad that he was working by himself with no help so didn't try to bother him as much. My brother also ordered boat noodles to go and was texting us about how rich and flavorful the broth was. " So much depth ", to quote him. I'll have to remember to come back here with them to try other dishes. Great little place for Sunday lunch! I'd highly recommend checking them out if you're ever in the area.

Enjoyed the brisket soup noodle and a thai iced tea for lunch! My husband got a rice dish that had string beans and tofu, he had to add a bit of hot sauce to make it exciting but i think he should've gotten the fried rice instead of plain rice. Service was great, speedy and attentive.
