The food here is so good. The pork belly literally melts in your mouth and the chow mein is amazing. All of the food is fabulous and so delicious. The people are super sweet especially Tony!

I don't really care for the e-ordering and payment platform they utilize. If you're more traditional, cash paying customer this place is not for you. It will not work. However, I must admit, service was very fast. Your order and it's at your table in 3 to 4 minutes. Furthermore, every dish was delicious. Every single one. This location has changed ownership two or three times in the last 10 years. This is by far the best one yet, and it shows with the lines outside the door for tables.

I love Special Noodle! Best Asian food in Santa Cruz by a long ways. If you like spicy food get their spicy beef noodle soup with thick noodles. It’ll have you shitting your pants. But you’ll be smiling!

Wow this place has gone downhill. Came here when they first opened and it was amazing. Back again year later and both me and my partner could barely finish any part of the 3 entrees we got. Absolutely disgusting.
The ribs we ordered was all fat, barely any meat and it tasted rancid.
The rice was so oily and tasted like old oil that we took one bite and that was that threw it away.
Got food poisoning - ate rice noodle pork belly
Both me and my partner got food poisoning

The only edible thing was the veggies sadly.
Won't ever be going back.
