We came on weekend for dinner and it was busy so we have to wait but worth it. Highly recommended Spicy Beef Noodle. This Noodle St Irvine is fully halal. Highly recommended.

My daughter loves this ramen, but after the last three times she had ramen, she had severe diarrhea twice. She only ate ramen and then had diarrhea. Do other customers have similar problems? Please pay attention to this issue

Good food and interesting service!...
Roaming around Irvine searching for somewhere to eat with something soupy and warm, my girlfriend and I came across this place. We joined the Yelp waitlist and once it was our turn to be seated we went inside.
Once inside, we waited in another line to get to the check-in kiosk which was a little inconvenient since it cause a crowd of people to awkwardly wait inside by the front door. I feel it would have made more sense to place it outside of the restaurant. The host, or at least the person at the register for the to-go orders, was stressed and it was very obvious. She was visibly in a hurry and talked extremely fast and seemed to be running out of breath. The one server (at the time) was also walking around stressed and at times was visibly upset with that person. The restaurant wasn't full, but the seating on both sides were taken. The long table that runs in the center was completely empty. Well, empty until we came. We got seated at the long table.
Any who, the food is what you want to know about! I ordered the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup/Rice Noodle Soup and the Beef Roll Pancake. It didn't take long to get the food, maybe 10 minutes at most.
How was it?
- Spicy Beef Noodle Soup/Rice Noodle Soup: Chunks of beef shank, kale, pickled veggie, cilantro, and green onions. Between standard round and knife cut noodles, I went with the knife cut noodles well... because my girlfriend chose it haha. It was a good choice though, they were wide noodles and hit the spot. The meat was good, decent sized chunks and very tender. The soup was tasty and had a good kick to it.
- Beef Roll Pancake: Beef, green onions, cilantro, and hoisin sauce. These things were huge. Plenty of greens in each of them. I've had beef roll pancakes at other places and wasn't a fan of how sweet they were. The ones here though, are just the way I like it. Not overloaded with sauce and not heavily sweet. These were good.
Plenty of parking everywhere in the lot, though I can see it getting more full later in the night. We came around 6PM and didn't have a problem finding a spot.
Service was OK. Even with the limited interaction that I had with the stressed out workers, it got me feeling stressed as well!
I'd come back for the food :).

Limited noodle choices, but it’s actually authentic zhengzong and I like noodle’s diy vibe. My spicy beef noodle was tasty.

This place is incredible !! It has become a weekly dinner for us. Their signature beef noodle soup is amazing. The noodles are perfect and the broth is phenomenal ! Love their beef rolls, scallion pancakes and the Korean BBQ on rice as well.

Tried almost everything. I would only order the stir fry beef or maybe minced beef. The wonton or dumpling is good but pricey. The other items were not good especially the savory chicken. Would not get again

This restaurant offers Northern Chinese noodle dishes. The whole place has a fast-food style. The clear broth beef noodles are flavorful, with a rich broth and generous portions, earning them high praise. However, the dishes other than the noodles can only be described as terrible. The fried tofu is cut too small, making it seem more like a snack than an appetizer. The beef roll was cold, likely prepared in the morning and left in the kitchen, and they didn't even bother to heat it up when ordered.

The second beef noodle soup place we went to in one night because the first just didn't hit the spot for us. This was exactly what we were looking for. The Taiwanese style spicy beef noodle soup was amazing, especially with the chewier thick knife cut noodles. The portions were generous; by the time we got to the beef roll pancakes we were kind of full. The roll was flaky and crispy. There was an issue with one of the soups but the management made things right. We would definietly come here again for the spicy beef noodle soup.

Cannot recommend enough! I’ve eaten here multiple times with both friends and family, and whenever I introduce it to new people, they say they’ll start bringing their friends and family too. The meat is halal at this location, major plus if you have such dietary restrictions.
I’ve tried most of the menu items and never once have I disliked anything. Large portions for a reasonable price, they aren’t shy with the meat either. The lamb skewers are a must-have appetizer, and their knife cut noodles have an excellent chewy texture. I enjoyed both the soups and dry noodle dishes, and the flatbreads and rolls have always been excellent as well. Brought a friend from China one time, he called the Qinghai cold noodles the best he’d eaten in the US.
Overall, Noodle St. Irvine is of my favorite noodle spots in OC, one of my go-to halal restaurants, and a place I recommend to anyone and everyone I can.
