Nudo House Delmar — Restaurant in St. Louis

It was early, not yet noon sun but close. Starved due to lack of breakfast, we searched for anywhere to eat. Desperately we searched for salvation. Google allowed us glimpses in to the future of possibilities. Our mouths salviated at the sight of Classic Ramen and the Pho Shizzel.

Was this to good to be true? We parked out front and on the door and windows it was displaying the words. "We send NOODs!-via postmates."

My fiance looked to me and we knew we reached our destiny. We called first on the clock of 11:am. Cashier 2 answered. Cashier 2 was amazing her understanding of culinary temptations succeeded in lightening our pocket book. Not only did we get our Classic Ramen and the Pho Shizzel, but spring rolls and crab ragoon too. Have you ever had crab ragoon that is made perfectly? Done enough so that everything was perfectly cooked not crisp but...perfection. 12 out of 10. Our first time there and our food done in 5 minutes... Five minutes, I spent more time deciding what to eat!

The decore is amazing. Though empty due to lock down it gave us a chance to appreciate it with out a distraction. We tipped the ninja training fund both in bank and on card. Cashier 2 I never got your name! But let it be know you have touched me (obviously not litterally due to social distancing.) We will forever be in awe of the food coma we entered just 35 minutes after partially finishing our food.

Why are you not there? 5 minutes for classic ramen! By the time you finished editing this post for grammar and punctuation mistakes you could be standing infront of Cashier 2 getting some of the fastest best soup of your life.

Good: convenience, fast food, decent priced options, atmosphere. -This location gives more chashu pork than the Creve Coeur location

-the ramen broth here is extremely creamy, more creamy than ramen broths I’ve had in New York City. It may be a certain inauthentic way they make it, but I like it.

-The pho broth here is a more aromatic, sweet, and fish saucy pho broth.

-the homemade chili oil is great

Bad:

the umami crisp was overly salty for no reason. They put too much finishing salt on it.

the pho dip banh mi was a little bit dry.

The tofu banh mi wasn’t that great and had an excessive amount of pickled carrot

For both banh Mis, the bread was soggy and not crispy. The typical ingredients for a Vietnamese banh mi didn’t taste very authentic to me like the carrots. Personally, I think the pate here is not that great.

The Vietnamese chicken salad didn’t taste very authentic and seemed like they are trying to cater to a more American audience

The pho takeout bowl needs to be a bigger size. I had to eat in the deli container. The rare beef meat portion in it is also not that great. I got the deluxe. I feel like the deluxe should get more meat than the normal beef pho, but it did not seem like it. And I don’t know if this was a mistake, but in my pho takeout bowl they put bean sprouts under the noodles, but also gave a side bag of bean sprouts.

I went in between 8-9 pm so I’m unsure if this night crew was just not making everything up to standard. I’ve been here multiple times and I’ve had crispier...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nudo House Delmar – Slurping Heaven, One Bowl at a Time

If you're looking for a sign to try Nudo House Delmar—this is it. Whether you’re a ramen rookie or a seasoned noodle connoisseur, this place delivers big time.

Yes, it’s counter service, but don’t let that fool you—the staff is incredibly helpful, especially if it’s your first visit. They walk you through the menu like a friendly noodle tour guide, making sure you end up with a bowl that hits all the right notes.

Now, the food… Let’s just say I’ve had dreams about their ramen since. The broth? Deep, rich, and packed with umami. The noodles? Perfectly chewy. The toppings? Balanced and beautiful. Whether you're going for the classic Tonkotsu or trying something a little more adventurous, you can’t go wrong. And don’t even get me started on the banh mi—it’s wildly underrated.

Best part? It’s all super reasonably priced. You walk out full, happy, and still have enough cash left over for bubble tea or dessert (pro tip: do it).

Bottom line: Nudo House Delmar is one of those rare spots that combines fast, friendly service with food that tastes like it should be served in a sit-down restaurant with white tablecloths. Affordable, delicious, and welcoming—this...
