Contrary to many reviews, I had a great experience at the Noodle bar. Good food, fast service and a free show if you sitting at the Bar (watching all the food being prepared). Sure it's a little pricey, but to be expected given the hotel / location.
We just showed up on a weekday around 11:45 and were seated right away - no reservations. Service was fast, friendly & efficient. In and out within an hour.
I ordered the Chicken Ramen and really enjoyed it. The chicken was juicy and tender (2 large pieces) and the huge portion of mushrooms layered on top was delicious (marinated in a wine sauce perhaps???). Broth not as thick as some Ramen places but still good and not too salty. I also enjoyed the fresh noodles. Bottom Line - A GOOD bowl of Ramen.
My friend ordered the roasted rice cakes as a side - very good. Slightly crispy on the outside, soft inside with a mild kick at the end. Served with red chili, onion and sesame. A perfect side for Ramen.
I will be back for sure...
