Noodles near Rutherford, NJ

“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 !!“

“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.“

“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“

“วันนี้ไปทานพนักงานบริการดีน่ารัก อาหารอร่อยมากคุ้มค่าให้เยอะจริง“

“Not a big fan of the fish balls but will definitely be back for the rice noodles. Get them with mixed sauce: peanut, soy, hot, and oyster sauce. The owner is a vibe. There is a small area for dine in, with 4 chairs, but food comes in a plastic container that's easy to eat from elsewhere. They do take card but with a fee.“

“Great fresh noodles, good balance of ingredients, tasty soup base, efficient and friendly service.“

“Good foods n good service 🥰 I love there so much 🇺🇸 ขอบคุณครับ“

“I love the atmosphere and the customer service they provide! The food was good and differently one of my favorite place to eat in New York city!“

“Absolutely loved the experience at South of the Clouds! If you’re looking for something beyond typical Chinese food, this place brings authentic Yunnan flavors that are truly unique.

We tried the Yunnan fried stuffed tofu, which was perfectly crispy outside and soft inside, packed with flavor. The traditional Kunming braised noodles were comforting and rich—definitely a must-have. The black truffle fried rice was next-level, super aromatic and indulgent.

The chicken stir-fried noodles were flavorful and well-balanced, and to finish, the fresh coconut cream was refreshing and light—perfect ending to the meal.

The ambiance is cozy and modern, and the service was quick and friendly. Overall, a hidden gem in Jersey City for authentic Chinese cuisine with a twist. Highly recommend!“

“My god this place is amazing I ate here 3 times last week alone.“

“My daughter chose this for a birthday dinner. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was fantastic. Audrey was our server. She was extremely knowledgeable of the menu, made great recommendations, she was there when we needed her without being there too often. I would highly recommend Rosella Sushi. Can’t wait to get back to New York City and return for a meal here. It also makes it extra cool when Chef Jeff is wearing a Florida Gator hat!“

“We throughly enjoyed our dinner tonight. There were 7 of us and they were so nice to accommodate us. We had 3 different appetizers 3 different ramens and 2 different rice bowls. Everyone loved everything. Highly recommend!“

“The best homemade udon in town , strongly recommended“

“Great dinner, great setting, excellent service 👌“

“The food is awe inspiring.“

“Got the braised beef noodles, Beijing noodles with soybean, a fish fillet crepe, and a pork belly crepe. Crepes were excellent and portion sizes could satisfy a hungry person. The noodles were also good, but I regretted not getting the spicy braised beef noodles.“

“terrific service and food! the Sake Mojito was fantastic!“

“Stopped by for dinner while in the NYU area and it feels like the kind of place that just fits the neighborhood.

Very casual setup, nothing fancy. A lot of students coming through, people eating solo or in small groups — pretty easy spot to drop into without thinking too much.

Food is more on the home-style side. Not overly heavy or overly seasoned, which actually makes it easier to come back to. Portions are decent, and prices are reasonable for this part of the city.

It’s not really a “destination” restaurant, but more of a reliable, everyday kind of place. If you’re around NYU, I can see this becoming part of a regular rotation.“

“The food is consistently delicious and is always fresh but the portions are small“

“First time for me - son has been getting this for years - plain Chicken soup is great it’s pulled roast chicken with a light broth with lots of veggies bok Choy scallion onions cilantro I get rice noodles very healthy in a sea of over spiced fried takeouts $12.50 great price“

“You can buy a pineapple pork bun (so fast with cash your friends are shocked) put it in your backpack and travel across three states, pull it out slightly squished at 3am, and it'll still taste so fabulous you won't want to brush your teeth so you can savor the taste for longer. Juicy, tender, sweet, savory, with a slight crunch. A bun of dreams.“

“Delicious food-pork buns, Dan Dan noodles, ramen, dumplings; honestly it’s all delicious. Very attentive service too!! Highly recommend this place (from a discerning critic)!“

“Amazing food and drinks!🥤“

“Restaurant options in NYC are just about endless. But time and again, I come back to The Pho Lexington. Design and decor are simple, modern, and uncluttered. Service is fast, pleasant, and efficient. Prices are quite moderate. And the food is unreal! My favs: The grilled chicken Pho is the best I've ever had. And the Bahn Mi is fantastic“

“This is my favorite place in the neighborhood. Food is consistently so good! I eat there and get takeout all the time. The staff are wonderful and the place is spotless. Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, my favorite is the dry pot.“

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

“I've been to a few ichiran locations and have always been satisfied. Is it the best ramen in the city? Maybe not, but it's a really solid and well balanced bowl that you get to eat in a relatively unique solo booth experience. I love the little booths, it's very relaxing for me to eat in my own little cubby. I will say though, the lines can get long.

As for the actual ramen, last time I went with the classic tonkotsu with all the recommended settings. It didn’t come with an egg by default, which id probably add next time, but otherwise I was happy with it. The broth is the real star of the show - it really exemplifies a classic tonkotsu with the perfect amount of unctuous, creamy mouthfeel and savory, rich flavors. They also give a lot more chashu than I would expect, which is nice. The chashu was super tender, although mildly flavored. The recommended firmness for the noodles was medium, but next time I would definitely go for firm because they were too soft for my liking.

All in all an awesome bowl or ramen with a unique eating experience. Worth checking out for sure!“

“Wanted to give a huge shout out to Cameron. I took ill today and was graciously allowed to use their bathroom despite not being a customer. In the midst of trying to get myself together, I left my phone behind.
On calling, Cameron answered my phone and held onto it until my partner could return to collect it.
I’m due to fly home to Australia on Monday. Had Cameron not ensured my phone was safe, my last days in NYC could have been awful. But now my overriding memory will be of the friendliness, honestly and helpfulness of the wonderful New Yorkers I have met.
You did yourself, your restaurant and your city proud today Cameron. Thank you so much.
Oh - and despite me being ill, the noodles looked and smelled damn good too. :)“

“Tasty food with superb prices as well as attentive, friendly service. delectable soup dumplings with juicy tender meat wrapped in a chewy doughy wrapper are so appetizing.... I also love the location of the restaurant.“

“Pork dumplings were sublime. I had beef curry udon and my daughter had the pork udon - both amazing! I had the Soju-Beer in a bag - very good, but don’t drive after! A jewel of Koreatown, Manhatten. Don’t miss it! So good!“

“The food I ordered was good ,well seasoned, but when I wanted to order their signature dish, which is the bao bao buns, they said it’s no longer in stock and won’t be ready till next season.

I was really disappointed that I couldn’t get what I really wanted.“

“Shrimp with crispy peppers and peanuts and pork cooked in soy sauce with egg“

“Great prices for delicious food. I see why Guy Fieri has come here three times. The noodles are perfectly imperfect and the flavors are spot on. The only questionable thing about the place is that the duck is served bone-in which brought down my wife's enjoyment of her dish“

“Place is small, and also they have shareable tables just fyi, that threw us off, staff is super friendly and kind. We order some ramens and gyoza which was super flavorful, all their ramens were good, I forgot to take a picture of my husbands but his was spicy and had pork like chicharron (crispy pork) on top, which was to die for, my son didn’t like his beef miso ramen because the meat was minced and also had a sweet flavor so I switched it with mine and then he was happy, my miso pork ramen was delicious, savory and had a little quick since they decorate with what looked like chili oil, delicious but a little spicy. I was super happy with this place, glad we found it and would definitely try it again. Yum“

“Tangy Noodle is not the typical Chinese restaurant that New Yorkers are used to ordering from. We are accustomed to the traditional looking and tasting fast food menus that we grew up with. Just one look at their menu with the variety of photos of the dishes, makes your mouth water with anticipation. They are visually new and inviting, well-crafted, and taste far better than the average Chinese takeout. I highly recommend Tangy Noodle for the experience of a home cooked Chinese meal. The staff at the 8th Ave and 15th street location are so nice and friendly. Ask for Cloe, Yumi and the manager Mailin. You won’t be disappointed. Tell them David recommended you.“

“This is Crazy ... like I love sushi 🍣 ... I've been in so many places just for sushi that I think I'm a professional testing them all ❤️ , but what I just got tonight , the best sushi I've ever have had ... it's without a doubt the best Sushi in the US , no enough with that , my wife thought the same ..., talking about the personal , they are very professional , they come over you front time to time to ask you how are you doing , even the boss was around asking , it means a lot , they really make you feel special and in home ... definitely I suggest to you if you're visiting NY“

“Fresh and delicious. We loved the starters and the Beef main. Fun place.“

“I’ve eaten here twice when visiting the city and entering via Penn Station. The dumpling soup was insanely good, especially when I was sick! My friends have gotten the signature Lagman twice and it’s always super super good. Pull up to this restaurant NOW“

“Món nào cũng ngon , sẽ quay lại tiệm .“

“We came in a party of five - two adults and three kids. We ordered one tsukemen, two ramen (deluxe and miso), one kid’s meal, and one fried chicken (karaage with Korean spicy sauce). All were delicious and filling. Anime is playing from a projector on the wall, which kept my boys occupied and quiet 😉. Staff were polite to us and the kids. I hope this place gets more attention that it deserves! Here is one photo from my meal (deluxe tsukemen).“

“Our waiter was awesome and very transparent! First time here and he made it the best! Didn’t get his name but he has black glasses. I wish All servers were this awesome.❤️“

“Delicious food and excellent service ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Such a great hidden gem for lunch. The space is cozy, aesthetic, and thoughtfully decorated — it has that perfect “hole in the wall” charm while still feeling cute and welcoming.

I ordered the lunch special and got the Thai basil fried rice with shrimp, along with soup and fried chicken, all for around $17, which is an amazing value for the portion size. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned.

I also grabbed a Thai iced tea to go for $6, and it was the perfect addition.

The service was attentive and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I didn’t feel rushed at all, which I really appreciated for a solo lunch.

Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cozy and affordable Thai lunch.“

“Yakisoba tastes almost the same in Tokyo street food!!!!! Love it!! okonimiyaki is also good! The chicken (karaage style) is also a must try. Another thing i like is they prepare the food fresh. Can’t wait to visit again. :)“

“Wow so so good. I wish I took a photo. I got the stir fry noodles but am excited to try more. Way better than a lot of other noodle options near by. I love the relaxed, hands off approach Asian restaurants have unlike that review from Jeff below.“

“Yum yum went with my kids Cookie and Bill.Loved my vegetarian ramen soup.“

“Forgot to take photos of the food but everything was so good. Steamed Pork Dumplings were massive, soft, and delish. Chicken Soup Dumplings had a really rich broth. Beef Lo Mein was flavorful and cooked well. Sesame Chicken was super crispy and the sauce was incredible but not spicy as it shouldve been. Chicken Fried Rice was standard but good.

The free jasmine tea was a nice touch and great throughout the meal!“

“I love this place very much. I have to write a review because this place is very special to me now and I have to express my gratitude. I've been coming here with my father for some time now, and today we had the super delicious crepe, calamari, and pho, SO DELICIOUS and after finishing the meal with my father, he said that it has been a while since he ate so deliciously. Because of things that have happened to our family in recent years, meals that feel warm don't come as often anymore. So him saying that today filled me with relief. We always leave Sao Mai smiling because we eat so much and laugh about how full we are. In this restaurant, I get to have a meal with my father that feels so welcome, and provides me with a comfort of being in the moment with him.

Every single meal we have here is met with the utmost care, not just because we are customers, but because we can tell that they really do care. I truly truly truly cannot recommend this place enough. The pho is so hearty, their apps are unmatched, and seriously a gem. Also their Vietnamese iced coffee? OOOOOOOOO it is so good. It is strong AS IT SHOULD BE and just refreshes me everytime. SAO MAI MY DAD AND I LOVE YOU!“

“I visited this place on a snowy day, and they offered hot red date water—honestly the perfect drink for the middle of winter. The food was just as impressive: the Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles and the lamb paomo were both really authentic. Warm, comforting, and absolutely worth coming back for!“

“We stumbled upon this restaurant and couldn’t have been happier. All the food was so fresh and delicious. Truly the best sesame balls I’ve ever had. They were warm and chewy. The salmon bowls were also great. Recommend the phoenix balls for dessert. They were gorgeous. Highly recommend!“
