Mr Z Noodle House

Mr. Z Noodle House relatively new and took over another Chinese. The new owner gave the restaurant a fresh makeover, featuring new paint, furniture, and a new tablet, creating a clean and bright atmosphere. It's very inviting.Unfortunately and understandable, the business is still getting their footings. The problem with only one waitress/hostess and one cook cause the food to come out extra slow and that's with 4 tables occupied. I can imagine how much longer for food to be served if it's a full house.From a food perspective, we ordered a variety of dishes and all were "meh". 1- The green onion pancakes : Too thin and oily. (3/5)2- Mapo Tofu : Oddly was cooked with the Five-spice powder so weird. (4/5)3 - Bak Choy: Standard and simple dish (4/5)4 - Pork Belly: Too dried and doesn't look appealing. (3/5)

We came on a Sunday around 4pm. It got more and more crowded as our early dinner went on. The server was nice but it seemed like she could've used some help especially once more people came in. Restaurant looks like it was recently remodeled, it was nice and clean in there.Food was overall pretty good. The wontons, chow mein, and stir fry pancakes really stood out. Oh and the Mongolian beef was really good, the beef was super smooth and soft.On the flip side we didn't really like the kung pao shrimp it tasted more like sweet and sour. We also didn't care for the salt and pepper calamari it was kind of soft and overall we didn't care for the taste.

**Be aware that the food that you see on Yelp may not be what you get** According to recent Yelp reviews that I wish I read prior to eating here (instead of trusting the menu pictures and food pictures), this place is recently under new ownership and it shows (and not in a good way). The best way to explain how disappointing this visit was is if you compare the photos of the menu and the food we were given, it's basically that meme of "What I ordered vs. What I got" but IRL. We came here wanting to try the hand pulled and knife cut noodles and soup, only to find that this place is no longer "Noodle House" but "Mr. Z Noodle House"-- and no hand pulled or knife cut noodles were on the menu. We ordered pig ears appetizer and it came hot, unseasoned, sloppily sliced, and had hair on some pieces (compared to the usual pig ear appetizers other places have that come chilled and without hair, just like the picture in the menu) None of the noodles in the soup we ordered were hand pulled, just instant noodles put into bland broth with some meat, bok choy, and a random hard boiled egg. The Beef Noodle Soup was anything but that. The beef chunks were tiny and the sliced pieces of beef that came in the soup tasted like they went bad. I had one bite of beef and didn't eat any more of it. There was a single small slice of carrot that was raw/not cooked, and overall not the slightest bit satisfying. It's the most random bowl of soup I've ever had at a Chinese restaurant. A friend of mine got the pickled mustard and pork soup. It was also terrible. The pickles weren't pickled, nothing like what it should taste like. Service was also very bad. A server brought food to the table and didn't know what the dish was, we had to figure it out for her. It's very rare that I choose to not finish a bowl of soup or not take the leftovers home, but this was that moment. Overall, it feels like whoever is the new owner of this establishment does not know what they are doing or know how to cook. Please save your time and money and eat at another establishment.

Terrible. Waited over an hour after ordering and still didn't receive food. Wasn't like it was a full house either.

New ownership REALLY changed the food quality. Wow. Very impressed. I would be hard pressed to find decent Chinese food in Anaheim or Fullerton but after trying this place today with the new owners they did not fail to impress. Pictures are of the beef noodle soup.

My family and I use to love this place. The lady would always great us. Her attention was the best. We didn't know this place had changed owner until we sat down and didn't see the lady and noticed some differences in the restaurant. Well walking in no one greeted us. We just sat and it took the waitress some time to acknowledge us. Another group came after us and they were served their drinks before us. We finally got our drinks and ordered. When the food came we didn't get extra plates nor silverware for our food. The waiters didn't check on us. No extra napkins, no refills. If they would have been busy I would have understood but it was 3 of them just standing by the register. Honestly this wasn't the best service but wasn't the worst. What did it for us was the food. We ordered chicken fried rice, salt & pepper fish and salt & pepper shrimp. Wasn't the first time ordering this. I think the rice was the only eatable thing. Both the shrimp and and the fish were covered in cumin and salt. Neither plate had pepper and if it did it was overpowered by cumin and salt. I'm not sure if the cook knows the difference between the two condiments. But this was a waste of money. I would not recommend this place. Save your money or look for elsewhere to eat. Will not be going here again. A lil upsetting because I loved this place before the owner change. I also left two pictures of our meal. You can see both plates have like a brown coating. Well all that is cumin.

My family and I love coming here. The food is always so fresh and delicious. The service is outstanding and we never wait more than 15 minutes for our food to come out. And every time is like a new experience because the food is that good. The menu has been updated recently and we feel like the food has changed but for the better! It's delicious! I don't know why this place isn't busier than it is. This is a must try restaurant 10/10

The best Chinese food restaurants nearby, super authentic with affordable price and ultra clean environment!

First time here. Just tried their Spicy Beef Noodle soup. Was very good and priced just $13.99. Inside is very clean and nice.

We ordered to-go so I can't say much about the dining experience. But going inside definitly looks different from their exterior. The cashier did mention they recently re-opened since their renovation. We ordered: -Sesame Balls-Yang Chow Fried Rice-Wonton Noodles-Beef BroccoliAll of them taste great and would order again. We've been looking for a Chinese Restaurant near our place and this might be it!Overall, we liked it and will try their other dishes next time we visit.
