Next Door Noodles By North Park - Niles

My daughter calls it my favorite restaurant. Just a couple of blocks from our house, less crowded that it's sister. Faster service. Friendlier staff. Also, some of the dishes here are cheaper than her sister. Bonus point, I prefer their noodles selection over NP.

I went with the xiomai and angsu beef wanton (as per the servers recommendation). The xiomi was ok, the angsu was very well made. Good amount of noodles in the soup. I liked the red chilly sauce with the food. Staff is professional and nice. The food is not top quality but for the price the value is quite good.

Next Door Noodles was a place I would frequent years ago, when I used to live close by. Recently, I decided to have a nice hot bowl of noodles as I wasn't feeling 100% at the office. It was a close walk away from the office, but even that seemed too far at that time, so I took a cab ride that took no longer than 3mins. Since I wasn't feeling well, I wanted something hot and comforting, so I ordered my usual North Park fave Noodles with 3 kinds of Mushrooms and Wanton (Next Door is a sister restaurant of North Park), Hong Kong Noodles. For sides, I ordered fried Shitake Dumplings. The dumplings

I love super love sweet and sour pork This place is nice avenue to chill with friends and reminisce. The ambiance helps a lot to make you feel at ease. For me it is a plus factor to consider a good restaurant. Place is small but well maintained. They can probably look into improving the service as as food serving is a bit slow.

I was there for midnight snacking with the family. Food was filling as we had congee and wanton noodles and beef as well, I specifically like their fried tofu! I won't mind going back but have to be ready as one has to wait a bit before your meal is served though.
