Food here is just OK. Noodle soups are a bit bland. Szechuan food is way too spicy, I wish they didn't serve so much peppercorns mixed in with the dishes, you aren't suppose to eat those and it's hard to pick off. Szechuan Tasty House on Evans is much tastier and portions much bigger than noodle express. I tried this restaurant 3 times before leaving a review, I won't be coming back sadly. Food priced too high for the small tiny portions that wasn't very tasty, just super tangy and spicy.

The kind of noodle shop I’ve waited my entire life to discover! Noodles made in-house, fresh, daily! The food is incredible!!!

I love fish-flavored shredded pork and fragrant dried pork shreds

The flavor is ok and you definitely get plenty of noodles or rice…..buuuuut the meat portion is so small it’s almost a garnish. I just ordered a rice bowl with “double the beef” and when it came out I had to have the waitress ask the kitchen if this was extra meat. Apparently it was. Could have fooled me! Not coming back. There’s plenty of other places that serve a reasonable dish. These guys totally skimp on the meats!

Authentic Szechuan food! The food came out really quickly and everything we ordered was delicious. We had the twice cooked fish, eggplant with pork, and salted fried rice. Highly recommend!

Amazing food and great service! I was craving Szechuan food and this absolutely hit the spot. We ordered the homestyle eggplant and pork and it was incredible - felt like it was melting in your mouth. The spicy boiled fish was spicy and delicious. Will definitely be back!!

I debated leaving this review. I'd been here two times before, food was awesome and we binged on all the tasty entrees. I went again two weeks ago and got the Congqing Chicken. Immediate first bite was chicken bone, second bite.. bone, it was basically a fried chicken skeleton and inedible. I ended up cracking a molar on the bones and it cost me $545 and a new crown.I hope I can save someone else the same experience.

The best Chinese restaurant in Denver hands down. The owner really ensures freshness of their food. Every dish I have ordered so far tasted amazing, and great service as well.

Noodle Express is a freaking gem. The kind of place that becomes a staple in your life, then devastates you when theyre gone. Best chicken fried rice I've ever had, and their spicy Cucumber appetizer is

Tried their Chicken Lo Mein noodles for lunch at it was great! Good portion size and tasted great!
The food is great, for both quality, flavor and amount! Really satisfied us after coming back from a long week in a town without tasty Chinese food.

I read the reviews here and was excited to try. Honestly was overall pretty disappointed. We ordered online with estimated pickup 15 minutes later. I sat at the restaurant for 25 minutes after that before my food was actually ready (40 minutes total from order, maybe they were busy? But there were only a few parties dining in). I was willing to give that a pass if the food was good. We got the Dan Dan noodles based on other reviews, but they were pretty lackluster (greasy spaghetti with a few toppings to mix in) and an eggplant and pork dish (I think they gave us the wrong one here as ours had mushrooms and tofu, so I'm not sure I can really eval this one- but overall the noodles/taste was very similar to the other dish). We did get the spicy cucumber app and that was outstanding. I'm willing to give them another try based on how much others love them, but as the actual meal dishes were pretty disappointing, at least our selection, and the time waiting to pick it up, we were left pretty disappointed.

非常雷!! All dishes ordered were terrible, and we had a table of Chinese people from out of state, not picky eater in general we are from Michigan. But the ma la chicken had burnt pepper making the entire dish bitter. and the water boiled fish had little fish meat on top andd basically served a whole bowl of sprout. Will definately not visit again.

We come to Denver every year for work and stay across the street from this absolute treasure of a restaurant. We stuck to the dandan noodles, pork dumplings, and cabbage the first few times we ordered but recently have ventured further into the menu and everything is A++. You really can't go wrong, just come here and eat!! Recommend ordering family style and bring home leftovers, you won't want to go home empty handed :)
