Editorial Review for No. 1 Noodle House – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
No. 1's customers order at a front counter, behind which sits huge pots of boiling water and sizzling woks. After sitting in the cafeteria-style dining room, their food is delivered by a member of the quiet, efficient staff. Health-conscious diners eschew fried rice and noodle dishes (honey chicken, beef crispy pan-fried noodle) in favor of one of the dozens of filling noodle soups and vegetable dishes on offer.

My husband and I love this place! And it's our go-to if we're working late and want something quick - I can order on the phone when exiting off the pike and when I get there 10 minutes later it's just being packed up and ready to go. The wontons are awesome (we usually get them steamed - yummy!), and my husband is obsessed with Beef with Stir Fried Rice Noodles. We've ordered many different things from the soups, noodle & rice dishes and haven't had a bad meal yet. I took my dad here the first time he visited us and every time he comes now he always asks to go back :) If you're looking for a nice sit-down place for a quiet meal this isn't the place - as the staff review mentioned it's more of a cafeteria style place, which is fine if you're not looking for a nice night out. Being from NY we've eaten at a lot of asian/noodle places and this beats of them. They really can say they are No. 1!
Pros: Excellent food, lots of it for very little, and friendly staff
Cons: None

Possibly the most food for the least money you will get in Newton. Forget about the rather ordinary fried appetizers and get some noodle soup. You can't go wrong for about six bucks ordering some version of wonton noodle soup -- the wontons are unbelievably delicious, light and fresh and loaded with shrimp and pork. Add some barbecued pork or roast duck and you are in heaven -- one order really can feed 3 normal people or 2 really hungry people. Great option for take out and did I mention it's affordable?
Pros: Lots of delicious food for small dollars
Cons: Not much to look at (but so what?)
