Magic Noodle

We had a nice experience overall and truly enjoyed the food. One of the chefs made fresh noodles right in front of us, which was a lot of fun to watch. The server mentioned that each person receives fresh noodles, and I even recorded a video of it. However, she forgot about the side dish we ordered, which didn't arrive. I mentioned I thought it might still be cooking, but that's not possible since it was pre-made shredded potatoes, which were actually quite good.Despite a few hiccups with the service, I really liked the food, so I'll overlook the mistakes. I ordered a sweet blackberry tea, but it was too sugary for my taste, so I ended up throwing it away. I didn't want to complain too much since the server had already made several errors. For instance, she thought eggs would be fine for a vegetarian dish, but I had no way of knowing that the noodle soup would contain them, as it wasn't mentioned on the menu. All she offered was an apology, so it would have been better if she had suggested an exchange. Overall, I enjoyed the meal despite the issues.

What I like-Service is friendly and fast-place is clean-food is home made and not frozen which you can experience with the fresh quality and flavor of the food.The standout for me was the rib noodles that I had, rich broth flavor, and the ribs were really good. Unfortunately, the soup dumpling is what I didn't like the most but was still better than 90% of restaurants that offer soup dumplings. If or when I find myself in Norman again I'm sure I will be back. Good Chinese comfort food done right.

My long search for a traditional Chinese hand pulled noodle shop in OK, the ones often depicted as late night street vendors in historic Chinese dramas, has officially ended. I've finally found it. What I love most about this noodle shop is they hand-make your noodles fresh, right in front of you. As a result, the noodles have a very good texture. The noodles are soft but able to retain a firm bite, and that is the "magic" in Magic Noodle.This noodle shop is small with 4 workers running the shop. It was quite busy and can get "hot" due to the open kitchen. Does it have the best broth? NO. It's all about the noodles, and I am all in. Words cannot express my love for this type of restaurant: unique, traditional, cultural while providing us with fresh products, something that has lost with mass production of food since the 19th century. Two roads diverged in a yellow woods, and Magic Noodle took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference for me. [1]1. Robert Frost, The Road Not Taken. 1915.

Our first time going through this area on our way to Oklahoma City and pleasantly surprised by the Chinese food offerings here! Food was SPOT ON! We got green onion pancake, stir fry chicken noodles, pan fried buns (yeah!), Singapore mei fun (I can't recall what they called it on the menu). Everything was delicious, we did not leave anything behind. There was a nice touch with the salted peanuts at the table. It's been a long time since I saw that served at a table. We saw someone hand pulling noodles when we first walked in, we'll have to order that dish the next time we visit! It truly was a magical food experience.

Best hand pulled noodles in town. Small family owned restaurant with great service. Portion size was just right. Not too small and not too large.

Wow! Hands down best noodle place! We went on a Friday to try something new, loved it so much we went back the following Monday. We tried the Japanese black ramen, pad Thai, Dan Dan noodles, soup dumplings, spicy ramen, pan fried pork bao buns, matcha latte, latte milk tea, cappuccino milk tea, and the fried bread. Service was amazing and everyone was really attentive. Noodles are made fresh and you have a clear view of how the guy does it. The matcha is a little strong but I liked that. Definitely recommend!

The inside is clean and there were two other parties there when we sat down. You can order by scanning the QR code on the table which was pretty neat, but you can't lay on the site, just order. I ordered the hand pulled noodle stir fry with chicken and my boyfriend got the black ramen. My boyfriend's ramen came out way before my food. I wish they came out at the same time, so we could enjoy them together. My dish came out about 5-7 minutes after his ramen and it was so good! It was huge to say the least. I could only eat a portion of my plate and I'll have enough for lunch tomorrow! The noodles were chewy and flavorful and the dish has lots of veggies! I really enjoyed that dish! I decided to try a dessert that was a steamed bun fried maybe? And condensed milk to dip in. I've had this dish before when I lived in Hawaii and it was a little different when I had it. The buns came out steamed nice and pillowy soft at the other place, here it is a little different like they are fried or dipped in a sugary substance. I think I prefer them steamed, so I can pull apart the bun to dip in the sauce. Still pretty good though and I enjoyed my lunch!

I've been wanting to dine here for awhile and finally my husband and I went last Saturday around 8pm. I think we were treated by the owners daughter who also seated us. There are a lot of choices to choose from and so I ordered 2 green onion pancakes because we loooove those! And an order of spicy cucumbers. We took the left over marinade with us to pour over our veggies at home.I had the beef burrito (not Mexican type) and French fries. My husband had noodles with a meat combo. Whoa, yummy and flavorful! Great service and we got to see the owner make the fresh noodle by stretching and pulling them before being cut! Totally traditional and unexpected to see. We will be back to order other items we didn't try sometime soon.

We ordered takeout on a Sunday evening. It was done super quick and the food was super fresh. The soup dumplings were so good and the pan fried bao was super crispy. I had the Dan Dan noodles, the broth was super flavorful. The ramen was the same noodles as the Dan Dan noodles and wasn't ramen noodles but the broth was good. Such a great spot for delicious Chinese food!

The spicy cucumber is ok. Not much on the side of flavor. Everything else was very tasty. There is a lot more noodles and not as much meat and veggies (2 pieces bok choy). Soup dumplings and pan fried bao (pork) were very good.
