| - Almost every Vegas casino has the 24 hour cafe. You know that restaurant that stays open all night, after the real restaurants have closed, to feed the late night crowd. It usually has a little of everything, but nothing that stands out. Food for sustenance, not for pleasure.
Noodles is the Asian version of that cafe, only it closes at 3am. A variety of random Asian dishes, some better than others, but nothing that stands out or that you'd want to go back for.
I had the double happiness with BBQ pork and roast duck. It's a dish with all meat, so I ordered a small bowl of rice on the side. If you get the fried rice with duck, it's 90% rice, 10% duck. The dish was $22.50 and while overpriced, still the best plate on the table. Both meats were tender and flavorful. You could easily order this dish and share among 2 people. Well worth it.
My hb got the laksa curry noodle. It was a decent sized bowl, was steaming hot, but a bit on the fishy side for me. More fishy, less curry. Not my favorite.
Our friend got the braised beef brisket rice. He said it was good, but not great. It was more of a meal for one as opposed to a dish to share, so plan accordingly.
We also tried the tempura shrimp and at $12.75 came with 4 pieces. They were decent sized, and done well, but easily something you could get anywhere else.
Service was just ok. It seemed there were many servers, but a lot of waiting around. We weren't in a hurry, so we weren't bothered by it, but I did see a server straight up eating behind the counter, then with food still in her mouth and chewing, she picked up a few dishes and served them. Kinda weird.
Decent food, Vegas and Bellagio mark ups, ok service. Average all around.
