Noodle Bar Pacific Fair
2024 Aug 12
Noodle Bar at Pacific Fair, conveniently located next to Woolworths, seemed promising at first glance. My wife and I decided to give it a try, with me ordering the Singapore noodles and her opting for the Udon noodles with Oyster Sauce and chicken.
Unfortunately, our experience didn't quite live up to expectations. My wife found her Udon dish, particularly disappointing. She described it as runny, watery, and lacking any real flavour. The noodles were soggy, and the dish was scarce on ingredients, which made it feel quite underwhelming. In her words, it was "crap"—a bit harsh, perhaps, but reflective of her genuine dissatisfaction.
My Singapore noodles fared a little better, though they were far from impressive. The flavour was passable, but nothing stood out as remarkable. The photos on the menu board certainly set a higher expectation, and the enticing smells that filled the air as we walked in gave us hope for a tasty meal. However, the reality didn’t quite match up to the sensory preview.
Another area where Noodle Bar fell short was in portion size. For $18.00 a dish, we found the servings to be rather stingy. The large plates they use only serve to highlight how little food is actually being served. A bit more generosity with the portions wouldn’t have cost them much, and it certainly would have left us feeling more satisfied.
As for the service, it was adequate but lacked warmth. The staff weren’t unfriendly, but they didn’t go out of their way to make the experience pleasant, either. It felt like just another transaction rather than a dining experience.
In summary, Noodle Bar at Pacific Fair offers a convenient location and decent enough flavours, but the small portions, lacklustre ingredients, and indifferent service make it hard to recommend. For the price, you could find better options elsewhere.😬🤨

Medium Combination Pho.
The serving size was stingy for medium, the serving size was more like a small, $17.90 is definitely a rip, considering there was No fresh basil, hoisin sauce, fresh chilli or ox tripe, the broth was bland, had three thin slices of beef balls...
Definitely wasn't a Phở Dặc Biệt.
Don't waste your time with this place if you feel like pho 👎😫
2 minute mi-goreng taste better

Cute little place, super friendly and accommodating staff.
The food was fresh and quick, and not smoked out like a place we went to at Modbury.
The only slight negatives were:
1. The music was way too loud, was really hard to have a conversation without shouting at each other 😂
2. No Wagu Beef options on the menu, All Korean BBQ joints normally have Wagu Beef 😸😭
3. Hard to get a park close by, especially at night time, streets aren't well lit, and plenty of shift characters lurking around in the dark
Not female and kid friendly parking!

Wow 😲 think we have just found our new regular Korean Restaurant!
The service was efficient, friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! We have been searching for an alternative since Miga Korean closed down.
The Korean fried chicken, sweet chilli was delicious, crunchy and a kick of spicy yummo!
The kimchi pancake and dumplings were also delicious 🤤🤤🤤
Definitely recommend if you are keen for some tasty Korean food, can't wait to try the other dishes.

Was looking for a place to grab a quick bite before a nearby appointment, checked out Drake, but nothing special and the guy serving was rude👎🏼...
By chance I happen to find this hidden gem (located behind the chemist) Viet street food - winner winner chicken dinner!
The service was fast & friendly (considering it was lunchtime) The Bun-Mi was fresh with a decent amount of meat/fillings/condiments
Nom Nom 🤤👌🏻
