Reviews for The Noodle Palace in Carmel-By-The-Sea, CA

First time here the food was tasty and service was excellent! ???? pho was very good and basil chicken wings too! Just came back... here again today and had this secret item thats not on the menu. T-Rex Bone Soup a must try!!! Read more

New ownership/management. Best Asian food I’ve had in a while. Authentic, clean-eating food. Fresh spring rolls were... fantastic. Pho broth is made fresh every day. Veggie and meat-eater options which makes my wife happy. Read more

We were staying in the area and had a super strong craving for Asian food. This place turned out really good!! Though a little... pricey (but everything is nowadays), it was satisfying. We had takeaway pho and vermicelli, both of which tasted perfect and nottoo salty. The dude that took our order was friendly and fun to talk to too! Read more

Best pho hands down! The server was always attentive to my table and was really friendly. Very fast service! Really recommend... their wings! Read more

This place was wonderful! Not only was the server and other staff the nicest, the food was also delicious! Pricing was pretty... good for the portion sizes as well. Husband got a sandwich and I got the chicken noodle pho. We also got 3 drinks and the friedwontons. Our bill was around $40. Highly recommend the fried wontons as they were delicious! Also, super clean and nice viewsfrom the huge windows. Read more

Highly disappointed. The #13 pho, is a bit water downed but comforting. The broth is savoring but does not have the authentic... taste of pho IMO (I understand why this is one of the few pho restaurant in the area). Nothing special about the pho at all, ifanything, it is more like a bland and very basic pho. The vermicelli bowl would be better if they know how to make the sauce forit. The vermicelli sauce is what one of the worker called "fish sauce"... the "fish sauce" is very oily, water downed, and haveno added flavor to the dish itself. Eating from other pho restaurants before, this restaurant would be at the bottom of mylist, and it is a long list. ???? but with few choices of pho restaurants in the area, having one is better than none... Willnot be coming to this establishment again but I encourage the owner/cooks to put more efforts into improving the flavors of thewell known noodle dish called, pho. The time I was dining here, it was not busy all. Yet the only time my table was checkedup on was to see if I finished eating and will be bringing my check. Not the best in customer service. P.S. - I'm not fat, Ijust love food. From WA down to CA. Read more

If you've never been here, it's a major GO. Best pho/noodles/rice on the peninsula with amazing flavors. Staff rocks and always... the perfect choice when we decide to come. #14 & 21 if you need assistance, enjoy! Read more

Food is okay. I ordered the Grilled Chicken and Shrimp rice plate, they skimped on the Shrimp as I only got 2 pieces! Friendly... staff. Window seating has nice pleasant views of the hillside. Read more
