NoodlePanda Restaurant SF

i can't believe i've never eaten here before! everything was so amazing. right when you walk you see the employees hard at work pulling the handmade noodles and dumplings made fresh right in front of you. my favorite part about this place is how you can customize the noodles based on your likings. i got the thin noodles recommended by the worker in the big beef rib noodle soup and it did not disappoint! the soup had such hefty portions of the beef and the broth flavor was epic. the xiao long bao and pork buns were filled abundantly and held together very well. i particularly enjoyed the consistency of the xiao long bao and how the wrapping wasn't too thick or chewy. the string beans were flash fried to the perfect crunch and the texture of the beef pancake rolls was divine. this restaurant was spacious, clean, and well lit. they also have a room in the back i assume for banquets and parties if you're looking for a nice place to host a large gathering like a graduation or birthday celebration.

We arrived around 6pm. There was no wait while the restaurant was about half full. We got a spicy beef triple noodles (thick noodles) and a dry pot. The texture of the noodles was very good. However, both dishes were too salty. The dry pot was too oily and missing some numbing flavor.
