Red Panda Noodle

Always love when I catch Red Panda Noodle popping up around town. This is one of my favorite food trucks in Orlando, created by the folks behind Orlando Meats (RIP). Their fresh, hand-pulled noodle dishes are all so unique and creative and they give you very generous portions. You can usually find them at Tasty Tuesdays in the Milk District, Orlando Parking Lot Party, the Thornton Park Night Market, at Redlight Redlight in Audubon, at Milkmart, and various other markets and festivals in Orlando. I love their wavy udon noodles and some of my favorite dishes are the spicy chicken kastu made with yellow curry and the garlic noodles. They also have great vegetarian options like the goomba (mushrooms) and the biang biang noodles. They almost always have a line, but it's worth the wait! They post their events schedule on IG so be sure to check there for updates.

When I visited, it was at a food truck and I know they were running low on their stock, so I'll definitely have to try out another time and edit this, but...I had ordered the bourbon meala and the hand pulled noodles were delicious! That being said, the overall dish was a bit more oily than I prefer.Everyone in the truck was super nice and they were really excited to be making new milestones for orders! I can't speak much for ambience, but they got through the line quickly and kept everyone aware of what they were slowly running out of! Definitely 3 stars for the employees dedication and attitude but it missed the spot food-wise (at least this time).

Okay so these hand pulled noodles are super fresh and chewy! We ordered the Biang Biang vegan noodles with bok choy, chili and scallions for $15.Even though the dish seemed rather small, it was super filling. I loved the noodles but I felt it had a little too much oil and spice. It's funny that I'm saying something had too much spice, because I'm the girl that puts way to much spicy sauce on things. I almost wished there was more bok choy to make it feel a bit healthier.We ordered and it was ready very quickly and visited them when they were in the Casselberry park. I didn't even know this cute park existed.I would definitely come back to try another dish.If you do go with these noodles, know they are spicy and very messy!

I had 2 dishes, the fish dish was the biang biang which was the hand pulled noodles with bok choy and chili crisp. The dish was spicy and didn't have much flavor compared to the garlic noodle dish. The garlic noodle was better and had more flavor than just 1 overwhelming spice. Overall I liked it would eat it again.

Thus food truck has been on my list and we finally gotten the chance to try it. We had the Garlic Noodles and Bourbon! Both delicious. The texture of the noodles were perfect! It was worth the wait in line! Service was nice and didn't wait too long to get our food!

What a great food truck find! We are really into noodles so was intrigued to try this place. Prices are steep but on par for typical food truck dishes. Ordered 2 different noodle dishes, important to mention didn't add meat cause it was extra for the proteins! Goomba was garlicky and mushroomy but a bit too salty for my taste. The udon was interesting. But I ended up using the left over sauce on rice at home. The Biang Biang was definitely flavorful but again a bit too spicy. The bok choy was a nice refreshing add. Food was prepared quickly and the servers were friendly. Food truck was nice and only true issue was the internet was a bit spotty so the payment took a little bit longer. Overall a trendy spot and very tasty would be back!

If Red Panda is at an event that you're also visiting, don't skip it. The food is excellent at a great price point, with a huge serving size. There is a reason this truck is always busy and hard to find - it's incredible. I can't wait until I find them again and can have more.Beware, if the sign says spicy..it is.

These are some delicious noodles!!! They always have the best flavors. I've been eating Red Panda Noodle since before it was a food truck. They would bring the woks and cook directly in front of you which was awesome. I do miss that! But love their food truck.

Tried Red Panda Noodle at the Orlando beer festival and it was delicious! Me and my two sisters all tried a different style of their noodles, I tried the goomba and it was incredible! I loved the wavy noodles and the thick veggies. My favorite was the mustard greens and mushrooms. Everything had great flavor. Maybe next time I would also get the spice on the side because I really like that kick! My sisters got the garlic noodles which was super good and the summer which was spicy but flavorful. Maybe I'd ask for the spicy sauce on the side for that so you can control the heat! The workers were so sweet and made it a great experience. We were the last customers of the day and I can see how they were running out of items because it was THAT good. I will definitely eat here again!!

I have been wanting to try this pop up for a while! I recently got to do so at one of the Orlando Parking Lot parties at Rockpit. The people working here are really friendly and seem passionate about their food. I chose to try the garlic noodles which come with chicken. Their noodles are hand pulled and meals made fresh to order (fun watching them work their wok magic!). You can definitely taste and feel the difference in the hand pulled noodles. They have such a pleasing texture and flavor! I loved my meal and enjoyed the mixture of ingredients and garlicky goodness of the sauce. It reminded me of hand pulled noodles I tried in NYC when I visited which I also loved. The portion seemed a bit small looking at it and I'd maybe have liked a bit more chicken, but it was honestly a perfect amount and very filling for me. I'm just a glutton for noodles and was loving my food! You know it's good when you're a little sad taking your last bite. Red Panda Noodle lives up to the hype and there's a reason they seem to frequently sell out! I can't wait to catch them again and try some of their other dishes!
