Fun noodle bar Slide Rd — Restaurant in Lubbock

It was my first time at this restaurant. I ordered the Won Ton soup to go. I had a 25 minute commute and put the soup in the fridge. I had a small bowl of it around 5pm. At 10pm I woke up violently throwing it up for 30 minutes. It was one of the worst episodes I've ever experienced. I thought the soup smelled funny but I just thought it was the combination of soy sauce and broth or whatever they put in it. It was strong smelling. So I called them today to let them know about the broth so they would dump it out maybe so others don't get sick from it. They didn't really Care. So sad. It was $11.99. They could've offered me a coupon or told me what they would do but they just said okay. The rest of the food my mom and I had at the restaurant was good and fresh. UPDATE: So Fun Noodle Bar just called me to tell me how fresh their broth is and their sorry that happened to me but they don't believe it was their broth. Even though that was the Only thing I ate. And threw up (vilolently, I might add). They offered me free food but didn't believe me about the broth. I'm an honest person and would never seek free food though it was nice to offer, sometimes that helps but not when your basically called a liar. I just wanted them to know and to Care for the sake of others and their reputation. He only kept arguing with me, like I need...

OMG! Ive always been half afraid to try ramen because ive only ever had the 10 for a dollar type poor college students get. That kind is so salty! But this, REAL ramen, is freakin' fantastic! And the portions are... Texas sized! Im so glad I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried something new! And that I skipped lunch, cause dadgum! Im so dang full! I couldn't finish it. I will absolutely be back. I got the (Taka- something) combo ramen with pan fried pork dumplings. Every ingredient had a distinct taste that blended really well with all the other items. The broth was amazing, distinct, and incredibly flavorful. I've never had black fungus before but I loved it - garlicky but not over poweringly so. I'm not sure what the bamboo or egg was marinated in but d@mn! And the sauce the dumplings were served with... holy Toledo! Usually you can say, oh that's sweet, or spicy, acidic or whatever, but geez Louise! I guess that's "umami" that I keep hearing about on tv. You gotta try this place, seriously. Yeah it's a little more expensive than the fast food Chinese food chain stores, but it's still fast but sooooo much better.

What are you waiting for? Go! Go now! You will...

Lubbock was sorely in need of a good noodle place to open up. Somewhere to put these other "noodle places" in check - and the day has finally come. Fun Noodle opened up after plenty of waiting and it couldn't have been a more pleasant experience. The space was reminiscent of a classic noodle shop where half of the room is dedicated to workers creating noodle masterpieces behind a bar and the other half for customers to wait in eagerness. The menu isn't massive, which is refreshing, and everything is accessible for both experienced foodies and new explorers. My wife and I each ordered tonkatsu ramen, a pork-based soup, and the fried dumplings. I mean what else can I say but "wow." This ramen is leagues above the rest of the competition in Lubbock; full bodied broth, homemade noodles, plentiful toppings, buttery chashu, and the portion is massive. The dumplings were, likewise, deeply comforting and made with all fresh ingredients.

They also serve boba tea, although we didn't have the room to order any. Consider stopping by Fun Noodle for your next lunch/dinner out - I guarantee you won't be...
