New Noodle - Hackney

Absolutely disappointing food. The salt and pepper squid was overcooked, the batter was so thick that it could be a separate item on the menu. There wasn’t much flavour to it at all and all I probably ingested a large amount of oil from this dish alone. The chicken in vegetables was dull. Vegetables weren’t fresh and chicken was precooked before being reheated. It was palatable however. Portion wise, it’s average. No more than any other takeaway or restaurant. I think this place is absolutely great if you’re drunk and don’t know anything about Chinese food. As soon as I had the first couple of bites I really wished that I had went somewhere else

I asked the staff for a recommendation as I could not decide and she made a good recommendation (and to the other customer who walked in when I was sitting down). The portion was good value, I was not going to be hungry after! The meal came quickly and it was hot. There was a generous pot of chilli sauce on the table. There is a lot of choice on the menu. I would definitely pop in again. Good down to earth service and place to eat. Bring cash (no cards).

Always really excellent food, pleasant and helpful staff (unless you’re rude to them, in which look out! and excellent value. A Hackney fixture for many years.

Brilliant cheap noodle bar! Say no more! Great food and masses of it if you get lunch no need for an evening meal! The gentrifiers have been trying to kick them out for a ling time now and they still there so show them some support!

The place itself is filthy/ messy, the walls/ windows have obviously not been washed in a long time. The staff seemed to think that because I'm British I couldn't understand them making fun of me and my friend's order (I do speak Chinese, if you don't like us ordering something, why have it on the menu?? rude, unfriendly service the lowest quality greasy Chinese food you'll find in the area. There's loads of cleaner, friendlier places that want your custom around hackney I suspect the good reviews here have been paid for DO NOT EAT HERE.
