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,

Tried a new one! This is my first time here so I went with the recommended CURRY RAMEN with the egg boiled instead of mixed in. I also got to try the FRIEND MANDUS with the HOUSE SOY SAUCE. The soy sauce was such a winner that I asked for more just to put in my ramen and I took some home! The ramen was packed out and pretty good but I did have to season it up a little to my liking (hence the soy sauce). The staff was attentive and the ambiance gave a “neighborhood” feel that real Memphians could appreciate. I’ll be back!

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

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

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 se
