Was recommended by friends and family so decided it was time to try out the Taiwanese food at Noodle Lab. I loved all the food when I went to Taiwan a few years ago, so I was hoping the food here would remind me of it. Fortunately it did! I got N13 squid stick noodle soup with #3 noodle. The soup was thick, goopy and oh so flavorful. They gave a lot of squid which was bouncy and had a bite. The noodles were cooked nicely. The menu was extensive so it was hard to choose. But everything I tried (even my parties noodles and rice dish) was delicious. Other notes: The appetizers were decent. The booth seating is comfortable and the bathroom was clean and smell really nice. Even the flower decor was pretty. Staff was friendly and the atmosphere was really chill.

Street parking/ meter parking available. It's an establishment with 5 tables and bar seats. 8 different styles to choose from with sample dried noodles displayed in little boxes to help you to decided. We ordered: Fries ( curry ) flavored with curry powder. $6 They also offer seaweed and garlic flavor. Wonton noodles $11 Beef noodles $14 Beef and beef tendon noodles $16 Popcorn chicken $7 Spicy oil wonton $7.5 Braised minced pork over rice $6 Fries were crispy but not much curry flavor Wonton noodles were served with great flavored soup base in generous portion. Beef and beef tendons were very tender. Popcorn chicken was crispy and not too salty. Rice was the sticky kind which yielded texture. Customer service was superb. Place is well lit and tidy. Modern feel layout. Background music was mandarin songs. Recommendation: will return to try other dishes too.

I really enjoyed the fried chicken, it was crispy and smoky. the noodles had great flavors but i wish there was some protein that came with it as a dish. i wish the portion sizes were a bit bigger. the space was plentiful, can seat anywhere between party sizes of 1-6. nicely lit and clean.

Lovely Taiwanese eatery with a modern twist. Food imho could have a bit more depth flavor closer to authentic Taiwanese but the cleanliness, vibrant staff and very reasonable prices more than make up. Small interior of just five tables, one window counter and some bar seats so good chance of waiting during weekend peak hours.

This is a nice place for a quick meal. It's a small restaurant with a lot of counter seating and a few big tables. They have a little tray at the table showing you the types of noodles the have. You can pick the meal you want and then select the noodle you want. They have a variety of appetizers to start your meal. Everything here is reasonably priced. All the food was tasty. We tried the sausage, tofu, popcorn chicken appetizers. Minced pork over rice, beef noodle dish. The wontons was more skin than filling. Had a frozen drink. It was ok, nothing special. Suggestion serve the food in have in the videos. The videos playing are quite interesting and inviting but you do not serve any of the items. Sushi, braised pig knuckles? Have a suggestion box. People buzz about things you are going right and what you can do to maximize space. Utilize the bar more? Your hours are not conducive to drinking..... Good luck with the restaurant!!!

Newly opened so everything was clean and nice. I came on a Friday night at 6:30pm on opening week and it was packed. They didnt have a hostess to greet and take our names for a table. The layout of the restaurant is a bit weird. If they had arranged the booth seatings more strategically I think they could've accommodate more diners. They also should hire more workers as there were 2 ppl waiting on tables. But they did the best that they could and also they had to turn away customers at 7pm. They also stopped us from ordering too much. Kid friendly place as they also provided kiddie bowls and fork for the kids. Now onto the food, everything was delicious. Items ordered: fried pork chop noodles (great) popcorn chicken (great) braised tofu (too salty, didnt enjoy this too much) pork and mustard green noodles (great) braised minced pork dry noodles (good for kids) french fries (crispy, get the curry flavor) fried porkchop over rice (rice was not good, clumped together and overall mushy) braised beef noodles (great, get it with the mung bean noodles) spicy wontons (too small) I would come back again. It was also decent priced.

TLDR: New Chinese noodle shop in the Bayside Franny Lew area. Mostly Taiwanese fare. Very clean, good looking store. Noodle dishes are very customizable with a lot of different choices. Popcorn chicken tasty. I drove by this the other day and I was curious when they would open. Then I realized they are, so I stopped in for lunch solo. I like the design and the look of the place, very modern, super clean and nice servers. Got the Taiwanese Dry Noodle. Popcorn chicken, asked for extra spicy. Wonton in chili oil. Taiwanese dry noodle. This came with a soy-marinated egg, scallions, bean sprouts and I think onions that were caramelized out. Noodles were bouncy, I felt the sauce could have been a bit more flavorful or maybe it was missing more of a salty note. The onions were good but because it's cooked out, this was more sweeter than I like personally. The homemade hot sauce improved this but I still would have liked more salt for my palette. Popcorn chicken. I asked for extra spicy and they accommodated. Flavor and marinades were good, chicken was crispy. Not greasy which was good. Chili oil wontons. Decent, pretty presentation but not particularly memorable for me. All in all, the popcorn chicken I liked best. The TW Dry Noodle while not my favorite, I can see how people would like this. Overally I liked it enough and I will be coming back to try some of the other noodle dishes and/or the rice plates. There are 8 diferent types of noodles offered, they have a cool display box where you can see what they all look like.
