Noodles near Kearny, NJ

“I stopped into this restaurant to get lunch. When I arrived I parked on the street. I walked in and was greeted and sat. The restaurant was cozy. Nana was serving me and she was great! I ordered:

Seasalt Edamame
Beef Scallion Pancake
Curry Chicken Soup Noodles
Beef Bowl

The food was tasty and favorite definitely was the curry chicken noodles! This was a really good experience!“

“This is now my favorite Filipino restaurant. So far everything is GOOD.“

“Finally got a chance to try South of the Clouds, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The Crossing Bridge Noodles were such a unique experience—comforting, flavorful, and perfect for a rainy Jersey City evening. The Daihong Roast Chicken had just the right amount of spice and was packed with flavor, while the fried rice was simple but incredibly satisfying.

We also ordered one of the Chef’s Specials, and you could really tell the care and authenticity that goes into the cooking here. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared and different from the usual Chinese food you find around town.
If you’re looking to try something beyond the usual takeout favorites, South of the Clouds is absolutely worth a visit…“

“Was pretty excited to see this place right next to my hotel. Ate twice before I left back home. 🍜 ramen was amazing“

“Every time I come and eat here during my lunch hour, they take really good care of me. The Service is amazing. They take care of me right away. The wait time is super low and they are so attentive. I highly recommend this place for anyone who loves a good sushi and Ramen.“

“amazing food amazing staff“

“This is a solid, dependable bowl of beef noodles that hits the spot if you are looking for a comforting, no-fuss meal.
The broth is the highlight here—it’s savory and warm, with a nice hint of warming spices that gives it some depth without overwhelming your palate. The beef is cooked well enough to be tender, and they give you a decent portion of it distributed throughout the bowl. As for the noodles, they have a pleasant chew to them, though they could have been just a touch firmer.
It might not be the most mind-blowing or intensely flavorful bowl of noodles you'll ever have, but it’s hearty, satisfying, and exactly the kind of comfort food you want on a casual weeknight. I’d happily order it again when I'm in the mood for something simple and reliable.“

“Prince & I feels less like a restaurant and more like being invited into someone’s home for dinner — in the best way possible.

From the moment we walked in, the owner personally seated us and ended up cooking our food himself. He has a quirky, memorable personality that adds to the charm of the whole experience. It’s the kind of place where you can tell the food is made with intention rather than being rushed out of a big commercial kitchen.

The dishes were packed with flavor and tasted very authentic. You can really tell the ingredients and spices are balanced the way Thai food should be — bold, savory, a little spicy, and deeply satisfying. Everything we ordered had great texture and presentation as well.

Overall, it was a unique dining experience with authentic flavors and a memorable host. If you’re looking for a polished corporate restaurant this isn’t it — but if you want something personal, quirky, and genuinely delicious, Prince & I is absolutely worth visiting.

Would definitely come back.“

“Surprised to find decent Xinjiang food in Manhattan.

Ding ding fried noodles were quite authentic, just a bit salty. Lamb pilaf wasn’t greasy, which I liked. Lamb skewers were tender and not gamey.

Service was okay but a bit inexperienced — had to remind for water.

Overall, good food, service could be better.“

“Just an amazing overall experience. The food is just spot on. Our Favs beef Penang, crispy basil duck, Drunken flat rice noodles, the volcano shrimp , the whole fish in the thai sauce. The host/ owner is just so gracious & pleasing & the ambiance is absolutely equal to any fine dining atmosphere with the twist of delicious thai food.“

“The curries are my fav! Dumplings are yum, and if you are a meat eater try Korean bbq short rib, it’s beyond! 😋“

“Wonderful staff

“Great food. Easily customizable to your individual tastes.“

“The interior feels more refined than you might expect at first glance, with a modern and elegant design. The food was good, although it didn’t particularly stand out for our tastes. Still, a pleasant place for dinner in a comfortable setting.“

“We were in town from Wisconsin to see Metallica. The day after the concert , we were looking for something good to eat and found Dumpling Dojo. Looking thru the menu , we knew we had to try. AMAZING!! We had one of the best meals we have had in a long time and my husband and I like to eat. We go to a lot of high ends places, but as I said , this place was extraordinary. The staff very friendly and helpful. We had the fried pork belly , tangerine beef , shrimp dumplings, fried shrimp and ramen noodle. And for desert , out of the world raspberry cheese cake wontons with whipped cream and fruit garnish. Nothing was too spicy but so flavorful. Again , you really need to try this place. Thank You !!“

“The Drunken Noodles were packed with flavor, and the Pineapple Fried Rice was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and perfectly prepared.
The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Great food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere.
I highly recommend Five Star Thai to anyone looking for authentic and flavorful Thai food.“

“Paid 11.95 for the lunch combo c-- 8 fat dumplings and a foil bag of spicy chicken. It came with a coke, which I don't drink and wish they'd asked me if I wanted to swap. The dumplings came with a vinegary garlic sauce that I drenched them in. The skin was thin and the pork and chive filling was a little on the dense side, which is not a bad thing, just a matter of taste.

The spicy chicken definitely lacked depth and spice. The spicy mayo was also not spicy...“

“The absolute best Ramen!! Amazing food and great service!“

“I absolutely love this place. The Pho here is seriously the best pho I’ve ever had. It’s extremely flavorful, the noodles always come out perfectly soft and the meat perfectly cooked. They have sauces at the table available like Sriracha , Hoisin Sauce and a Homemade Chili sauce. Their spring rolls are very refreshing and pairs deliciously with their peanut sauce. Their fried spring rolls are also super amazing, always come out hot and delicious which also pair nicely with the fish sauce they serve it with. Their Jasmine Boba Tea is to dieeee for, as well as their Avocado Shakes. I also recommend the bowl that comes with BBQ Pork, salad and Vermicelli noodles. The service is always quick and their servers are super kind. I believe the older couple who is always there are the owners and they are absolute sweethearts. I genuinely love coming here, I visit the place at least once a week on weekends. Check this place out and you won’t regret it!“

“Always as expected. I usually come here after work when I don’t feel like cooking.“

“Incredible vietnamese dishes. We triend several amd are always impressed. Never been disappointed yet. Their pho is great but try the other dishes too. They also have regular specials. Also highly recommend their desserts. Flan, cale, and rice pudding are really excellent.“

“Great neighborhood spot. I love coming here and want to support them through this Covid mess. The outdoor dining is set up well and the service is always good“

“Solid, reliable, reasonably priced Thai food. Love their Pad Thai, and had their signature udon most recently and it is amazing. Solid all around.

Love their chicken spring rolls also. The mango sticky rice was okay, probably would not get again.“

“The food is simply A-level. So flavorful and authentic and makes me nostalgic. Service is nice and the atmosphere is clean, air conditioned, and it doesn’t get too loud during rush hours. Will definitely come back and would recommend to anyone craving for Asian food in Jersey!!“

“I’ve been going here for around 3 or 4 years and the food is amazing I love their original crossing bridge noodle soup and their salty chicken. As someone with autism They are one of my safe foods for me, and right across from them is another store I like to go to after I eat! This restaurant is amazing and I think it’s a hidden gem in Brooklyn“

“I admit I didn’t have very high hopes when I came across this spot as a recommended lunch place; maybe I was afraid to be disappointed since I love Vietnamese cuisine.

But I am happy to report that my order was delicious (I got the bun). Excellent flavors, great mix of textures and colors, perfectly seasoned. My only hope is that they offer bowls of pho broth in the future.

I’d recommend you pick up a book from Watchung Booksellers right next door (it’s attached to the restaurant) and have a peaceful lunch here.“

“We have been dining at Yellowtail Rutherford regularly since last year, and it has become one of our favorite spots for sushi. The sushi is consistently fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious, which keeps us coming back time and time again.

The location is convenient, with easy street parking available nearby, making every visit hassle-free. Beyond the outstanding food, what truly sets Yellowtail apart is the exceptional service.

A special thank you to Ellie, who always greets us with a warm smile and makes us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walk through the door. Her friendly and attentive service adds so much to the overall dining experience.

We would also like to recognize the entire staff, who work tirelessly to ensure every guest is well looked after. Their professionalism, hard work, and dedication never go unnoticed and contribute to the wonderful atmosphere of the restaurant.

If you're looking for delicious sushi, excellent service, and a welcoming environment, Yellowtail Rutherford is a place we highly recommend.“

“👍👍👍今天吃了，牛腩王，炸油条，云吞面，全部都很棒。很合我们夫妇的味道👏👏👏“

“I absolutely love Purple Rice! The food here is consistently delicious and always worth it. Even though I live in Midtown Hoboken, I find myself stopping by often just to eat here. Everything I’ve tried has been so satisfying. The staff is also very friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and great service—you won’t be disappointed!“

“I recommend delicious steak sandwich“

“Delicious, authentic dishes at an extremely reasonable price. Service is always kind and the atmosphere is cozy! The perfect place to take a date (which I've done twice!) or family/friends/yourself. My personal favorite dishes so far are the red curry and pad thai. Great for takeout too! 10/10“

“Food was very tasty, just a tad bit oily for my preference. Ordered 3 dishes for 3 people and would say that it was super filling. It gave a sense of nostalgia in the way it tastes homemade and fresh (crab on blue crab dish was a dead crab, only downside) would not recommend the blue crab dish as they gave a mushy dead crab, but the fried rice under it was something that made up for it. ordered the sweet and sour pork rice and the seafood rice cake which were both excellent. Overall had a good experience and i want to bring more friends and family here. prices are really good too!!“

“A great addition to the Bloomfield restaurant scene.“

“what an amazing Christmas Dinner, will definitely be back to try more of the menu“

“Love this place! People are nice, food is insanely tasty and the place is cozy. Best dish in the house is the Red Curry Duck, its insane. Get it with the pork buns and call
it a night. Be sure to get the Thai Iced Teas. One of my favorite places now!“

“The food is always fresh and hot 🥵“

“When I came to New York for a concert in February or March, I stayed at a ramen shop near my place. They also had sauerkraut fish, spicy hot pot, barbecue, and many other things. The food was pretty good, and it was quite crowded during mealtimes, with tables turning over frequently. On a cold night, slurping down a bowl of noodles was so satisfying, especially since the taste was really good and the price was very reasonable. If it weren't just for two people, I would have ordered a lot more.“

“Still my favorite crossing bridge location in 8 Avenue. Very flavored broth and for a time frame now they stopped charging tips and it's more self service.

So you ordered in the front and for crossing bridge noodles you can either request them to put in everything or have them take it out with each ingredient and put in everything yourself. It's also not as busy back in the day so usually there isn't any wait time.“

“Everything tasted amazing!!!!! the crab rangoons are so delicious and perfectly flavored, it is a treat every time i order them for an amazing price too!!! the sesame chicken had a great flavor and is not too sweet, the general tso chicken is perfectly spicy and tender. there are no little crumbly pieces as i would usually get at most take out!! the coke cans (diet) were nice and cold, and the veggie low mein noodles were perfectly dry and flavorful and HOMEMADE? (although the lettuce is weird sorry). the dumplings in chili oil taste super authentic and have a greattttt flavor. i loved everything here and i would order 10000 percent again. never change !! (besides the lettuce)

Vegetarian options: all the tofu options are sooo delicious!! super crispy and delicate.“

“Always delicious and very knowledgeable about allergens if you ask“

“new owners with an updated menu. loved the old but love the new even more“

“Recently open and the place is phenomenal. The food is cheap and affordable. Service is superior aka fast and no tip unless you want to. We had the steam pork buns, the fuzhou wonton soup, noodles with peanut sauce and the mei fen with beef tripe soup. I got the pan fried pork buns to go. It was super good and tasteful. I will so come back again with Jo regrets. I recommend it 297372727%“

“I tried 2 combo meals:

The General Tso's Chicken was really good! (I asked for extra spicy and compared to other places where they miss the mark, this place actually made it spicy!!) Love it!

The Chicken with Broccoli with garlic sauce was not too bad. I do love how tender and properly cooked the chicken turned out....but the garlic sauce seemed more on the bland side. Was lacking the garlic flavor.

Both egg rolls that came with the combos were alright. Lacked the crunch I usually expect but was a nice big portion.

I will definitely come back to try other dishes.“

“Excellent service and delicious food. I had the vegi fried rice and Peppers with beef.“

“We were visiting this Chinese neighborhood in Brooklyn and one of the employees recommended this restaurant for noodles. It was amazing, really one of the best places we have eaten and seemed very authentic. This is very much understated, a hole in the wall with a relatively simple menu. You pay cash, the food comes out. Piping hot for dining in or takeout, fresh, delicious, and when you are done you have already paid. So you just leave. Leave. There were many people came in while we were eating in which says to me that this is a favored neighborhood joint. Highly recommended.“

“Tried it for the first time today and it was amazinggg. Hidden gem in the mall food court. We tried the beef rice bowl and the fried crispy chicken rice bowl. The chicken was crispy and the spices blended together so well. The beef bowl was also some of the best ive tried.

The guys at the front were really nice and helpful with what to recommend too.“

“A store front Cantonese restaurant. I got their congee and I liked it. They sell Char Siu, soy sauce chicken, rice dishes. Most of the time when I go to 8th avenue, I would go to buy their foods. They are nearby the N train station, it's about two minutes walk.“

“Hearty & delicious noodle soup choice of the food court! I love how they serve the noodles in a separated bowl — especially if you plan on taking it to-go. Enjoyed the shrimp & wonton noodle soup & the beef noodle soup! This place is now my go-to spot for mall food!“

“The staff was very excellent, order delivery was fast. Thank good service.

Vegetarian options: very healthy and delicious food

Wheelchair accessibility: excellent place for disabled, Excellent customer service.“

“Gotta admit, the food was great — no complaints there, absolutely flawless. But the service attitude left me feeling pretty disappointed and uncomfortable. I was dining here today on a rainy day when a delivery man came in to pick up an order. He waited quietly while one of the servers was taking another table’s order. From what I could tell, he just wanted to confirm he had the correct order before leaving. After finishing with the table, the server spoke to him in a way that came across as rude and impatient. I don’t remember the exact words, but the tone and expression — like she was visibly annoyed — made the situation uncomfortable to watch. The delivery man looked to be around his 50s or 60s, and honestly, I just felt bad for him. I hope delivery man are treated with a little more kindness and patience. It was raining, and he was simply trying to do his job.“
