Long on the Chinatown to-do list and recommended by several folks as one of the better places to share plates in the area, it was with four friends and one youngster that lunch took place at Wendys Noodle Caf on South Jones Boulevard, the menu embracing everything from fusion to traditional favorites with results that were somewhat variable.One of the few free-standing restaurants in a high-density area where places seem to come and go with the wind, Wendys Noodle Caf has been enticing diners since 2009 when its owner left her position at Changs Hong Kong Cuisine and Dim Sum, the restaurant slowly morphing over time to entice Western palates in addition to more traditional clientele while simultaneously growing its menu to more than one hundred options.Divided into sections ranging from small plates/tapas to fusion, chefs specials, rice plates, noodles and more a first glimpse at Wendys menu can seem overwhelming to those not doing prior research, the staffs limited English though certainly better than any foreign language skills at our table seeing the order largely predetermined by the suggestions of others with fifteen plates divided over three courses.Not particularly focused on noodles, but rather a variety of plates divided across the breadth of the menu to see how well the kitchen performs, it was with a large bowl of creamy Congee that the meal got started and with plenty of Pork as well as Century Egg included the rice was imbued with a deep sapor, the same to be said of the Kung Pao Mushrooms that were far less heated than some may favor, though that fact allowed the dishs umami to instead come to the fore.Ordering a plate of simple wok-fried noodles for the pickiest diner at the table, texture on-point though flavor was expectedly lacking, better bites were found in the densely packed Fish Balls paired with thick Curry paste, the Honey sweetened Eggplant a truly addictive dish while the Sweet Potato fries would have been greatly benefitted by the salty egg-yolk featured at other similar places.Moving on to more plates, the total bill $145.34 before tip, XLB fell far short of expectations due to a thick and sticky wrapping with soup that lacked much depth, the tapas of Chef’s Special Fried Chicken Wings and Grilled Ox Tongue each fairing better with the former crisp and spicy while the later was smooth and tender with a salty-sweet finish.Offering a sizable portion of Walnut Prawns for just $14.99, the quality on par to those at Jasmine where prices run double for fewer, more good bites were found in the spicy Steak and springy Rice Cakes with Ramen as well as the unique Omelet folded around fluffy rice topped in a thick white sauce teaming with Shrimp, Squid and Scallops.A bit weary of desserts at such a place, though pleased by the variety offered, three sweet items were selected to round out the afternoon and although the make-to-order Napoleon was far less layered than many of its French counterparts the Berries were indeed fresh amidst light Cream while the Mango Crepe ate something like a Fruit Roll-Up wrapped around more cream and with a ripe and juicy center, the Snow Flower Sundae putting an unset Custard base beneath Vanilla Shave Ice, Red Bean, cubes of Herbal Jelly.THREE STARS: Expectedly lax in service, even with the restaurant less than 1/8 full, Wendys Noodle Caf falls somewhere in the middle of the pack for Las Vegas Chinatown, the best bet undoubtedly going with a group in order to sample many things with a focus on less finesse-oriented plates. endoedibles.com
Excellent, creative menu!. Creative meals, served by a great staff. We especially liked the rice cakes, pork with strawberries, braised short ribs, and milk tea. We’re from upstate NY, and the Asian restaurants near us will seem so boring now! Wonderful restaurant!
Decent food and comes out fast! However, probably the worst service I’ve experienced in three years of living in Las Vegas. I was literally rushed out if the restaurant after ten minutes of being closed as I finished my dinner. They took all my utensils to eat before I had even finished. Also, as I walked in (1 hour before closing) I was asked if it was to go! Very rude and I will NOT be back and will persuade my friends and clients to go elsewhere!
Friendly service. As my wife and I perused the menu, we received complimentary glasses of hot tea, a small saucer of peanuts and cups of wonton soup. As an appetizer, we ordered sweet potato fries with black sesame seeds, a bountiful order with the fries coated in a light tempura batter. Our shared entrees were beef chunks with black pepper sauce which came with rice and green beans plus lemongrass curry chicken clay pot. Both dishes were very good. Service was friendly and on target. Though this Chinese restaurant has bargain based prices, it offers a nice decor, friendly service and high quality food.
Worst customer service ever!. I will never ever set foot in this place ever again. The waitresses were so blatantly rude. Would walk away as we were talking to them. Instead of letting us tell them what else we needed they would walk away as we were talking. I have never in my life experienced this type of treatment. This happened on 2 separate occasions. I gave them another chance and this experience just sealed the deal. My advice to Wendy would be to lose the girls. They ruin your guest’s experience and your restaurant’s standing.
Favorite Restaurant. Wendys has become one of my most favorite restaurants. They have a great menu and A big variety to choose from. I have not been disappointed with anything I have tried there. I recommened this restaurant to all of my family and friends. I think their Calamari is the best I have ever had !! As far as the staff and service you could not get any better. You are served immediately and the food is out fast. Every employee there treats you like family and takes care of your every need. I highly recommened this restaurant .
Great food and great service! Each dish we had was so different from the other I don’t know which noodle dish was best. Can’t wait to go back.
