Not Only Noodle（又一家） — Restaurant in Plano

I used to live in China and I love snail noodles. Not Only Noodle did a pretty good job. Although, the thin rice noodles were a bit gummy. My first time trying this place. I had a 40mim drive over and when I got there the door was locked and open signs off. I was puzzled because I had done my research before and both google maps and the restaurant website both said it should have been open. (About 3pm) I understand restaurants get a lil at this time however I wish it were stated or at least addressed better by the guy who opened the door to me. I tried to open the door for a bit and the guy came out after a while and immediately had an attitude and said they were closed. I said I placed an order online then he changed his tone. I asked what were the hours and he said the same as online.. which wasn’t true. Then I asked again and he said “because there was a special promotion they ran out of ingredients today and would be opening back up at 5”. After leaving with noodles in hand I was impressed they packaged the to-go order so well. The noodles separate from the broth and spice on the side. I do appreciate that a lot. But disappointed getting the food was such a hassle. I might go back.. but the first impression left me a bit...

I’m not sure what happened to the signage. I had to double check my Google map to ensure I’m coming to the right place.

A small family was finishing up their dinner when I arrived. The owner/cashier/cook is manning the restaurant. Dinning room floor was sticky. Literally, the whole place can hear you walking since your shoes stick to the floor surface as you walked.

Frankly, I felt bad for the guy if he owns this place. Is he giving up or making the last stretch or this is the way this place operates all along.

However, the appearance of my noodle looks and tastes good. Even though there are many unavailable items but I love to come back and try the food. I can overlook the cleanliness. I love to support local business and as long as the owner continues to hustle.

Revisit this place trying other dishes. Food was ok just trying to bring my wife to hear her opinions. Not sure will we visit again but I love the idea pay for the meal no need to tip for service.

Regardless, tables need to be deep clean daily even though this is self service. Just part of the restaurant maintaining...

We’ve been here a couple of times, but this visit will be our last. Food is good but wouldn’t know this time, as we did not receive any food. Service is always lacking, and this time is no different. They put up signs everywhere stating that everything is self-service, and tipping is not needed. Not a problem. We sat down and ordered our food on our phones by scanning the QR code. We waited there for almost 30 minutes before the owner came out and told us they ran out of rice noodle for lunch. Would’ve appreciated it if we were told as soon as we put in our orders. Also, there were bugs crawling around the restaurant, so not sure how hygienic...
