In case you didn't know (or have been dead for the past few years..) there's been a plethora of fish noodle soups that have popped up and some are already gone. I often credit this crazy to Deer Garden and while they still do an admirable job of carrying the torch, there are many others (quality ones too) who have joined the race.
Enter Lucky Noodles occupying the space of a former sushi restaurant and many that have been there before it. This is yet another one of the "dead" spots in the city where it seems no business can survive for long. This just might be the turning point with this new tenant.
I would say this place is a solid 3-4 stars but I am giving the 4 because their value is unbeatable; especially with latenight value combo starting at 9pm.
These guys have all the favourites and then some various noodle and rice dishes too should you choose not to go with their staple (fish noodles). The soups are all pretty flavourful and the ingredients are all freshly prepared. This isn't premium quality but I feel you do get more than what you would pay at another similar place. The portions are quite large here and the snacks are nicely prepared at $2 a pop which is a steal! Things like pork chop, wings, beef ribs, fish fillets...all for a measly $2!
Go after 9pm if you want the late night combo of a drink and bowl of noodles for a ridiculous price! Also, ask for the XO hot sauce when you get your noodles; it adds another dimension to the flavours.
This is definitely my go to place albeit you can find better quality out there... you simply cannot beat the combination of value, convenience and flavour this place has. This is fish noodle soup after all... it shouldn't be so fancy anyways.
