The Crazy Noodle

I’ve usually enjoyed The Crazy Noodle, but this visit was very awful. I ordered the seafood ramen, and it was poorly prepared — the mussels smelled off, the broth was bland, and the squid was overcooked and tough. I could barely eat it. When I politely mentioned the issues, the waitress became defensive, and the situation escalated. The owner came out and yelled at me, taking my feedback as a personal offense. She berated me and made a huge scene, repeatedly insisting the food was fine and implying I was trying to avoid paying. I had no problem paying for what I ate and even left a tip, but the confrontation was uncomfortable and unprofessional. On top of that, it was 41 degrees outside, and the restaurant had no heat, so people were eating in coats. Then, in what felt like a petty move, the owner canceled my entire bill, saying I didn’t have to pay for anything. While technically generous, it didn’t feel like a resolution — it felt like a display of ego rather than a professional handling of the situation. The food here can be good, but this experience showed a serious lack of professionalism and respect for customers.

I ordered the fried mandus, handmade vegetable dumplings and the vegetable ramen with no tofu and no bean sprouts. The menu specifically reads vegetable dumplings. I bit into the dumplings and a white substance was all through out the dumpling. I assumed it was cauliflower because the menu reads vegetable dumplings. The texture was weird, so I asked the server what exactly was in the dumplings to be sure. He says tofu. I responded ok, I don't eat tofu. The menu does not say that there is tofu in these dumplings. The menu says vegetable dumplings, tofu isn't a vegetable. The server very kindly asked me if I wanted to send them back. I said yes. He went to go speak to another lady, I could hear her in a raised voice going back and forth with the server, ultimately telling him that I could not send the dumplings back. The server came back and very apologetically explained that I couldn't send the dumplings back. I assured him that there was no need to apologize. It wasn't his fault. I said the lady is very loud, I heard her telling you that I couldn't send them back. I stated, but I do want you to understand that the menu says vegetable dumplings. It doesn't say tofu and vegetable dumplings. I have the seven dollars, I can pay for the dumplings, but this is incorrect information and false advertising. I said, this isn't my opinion, this isn't what I think, or believe, it is a factual statement that the menu says vegetable dumplings and these are in fact tofu dumplings. I stated that I would be leaving a review and not returning to the restaurant. I paid, tipped the server well and left. I do not recommend dining here because the menu is not an accurate depiction of what is actually in the dishes and they do not take accountability for the false information on their menus.

Saw this was a Ramen place and decided to check it out on a Sunday evening. Very small parking lot and restaurant to match, we ordered to at about 7:30 and walked out at 8:20. Tried the seafood Ramen (lots of broth, 2 mussels, 4 shrimp, and small serving of ramen) and the Bi Bim Ramen with shrimp (food not really have a flavor). The server/cashier/greeter was one man and he was doing his best to stay on top of everything but he was drowning doing everything himself. We love to support small businesses but between the wait and lack of flavor we more than likely will not return. I know that they cannot control the homeless people outside but upon returning to my car which was parked right in the doorway there was a man begging the customers for money as they entered and exited. Did not feel the environment was safe for me and my son.

This is a casual, busy joint for Korean food at Overton square. Overton square already has a tons of hip, and cool diners, and bars. This is another cool and casual spot. We started with some fried mandu/ Korean dumpling. The fried dumplings were absolutely gem. We had the beef one. The dipping sauce was very tasty ( I guess that was soy sauce, mixed with some seasoning/ spices). In the main entree, we had a ramen stir fry with Korean bulgogi, topped with a fried egg, and another chicken ramen soup. Both the dishes were of a good portion size and the food was hot and fresh. They served a sauce/ hit spice mix ( forgot the name) with my chicken ramen soup- that was terrific. I loved the place overall, and I’m already planning to go back. If you plan to stop by, don’t go with a rush. Their service is a bit slow, and the ambience is totally laid back.

Went here to try Korean cuisine. All of our dishes were served hot, looked appealing, and great portions for the price. My girls had a ball and got to experience something new.

Attached to a convenience store so look very closely and sits at the corner. The is Very delicious. Very quick service. Only one bathroom but is surprisingly very clean nice water pressure. The Arnold palmer/VIP is very light not really sweet. I ordered the kimichi ramen mildly spicy and my friend ordered the seafood ramen. We will be here again. The triangle dish was the appetizer called the Seu-Jon is an egg pancake with fish in it the dish was really good.

This place is really good. The atmosphere is comfortable, and the location is convenient. The portion sizes were very generous! The fried mondu was a tad dry, but the dipping sauce was fantastic!
