Noodles Express Inc

While in the Denver area I sought real, authentic Chinese/Szechuan and this place had decent reviews, so I came here. The staff was friendly enough, but the food wasn’t all that great, maybe for typical Americans looking for basic Chinese, but it definitely didn’t meet my expectations. I tried their chicken with serrano peppers and the peppers were tasty and spicy, but overall, no flavor to the dish at all. Their spicy cucumbers were really good though. Overall – Nothing special.

As genuine Sichuan food as one is going to find in the greater Denver area. The restaurant should change its name to inform potential customers that this is first and foremost a Sichuan 'small plates' (xiao cai) eaterty, albeit one with great noodle options including a very solid dan dan mian. The home-wrapped boiled dumplings (shui jiao) are meaty and with the thick skin indicating they are of the north China variety. How the chef and his wife run this place alone and manage to get the American-portioned dishes out quickly is amazing. Don't look for an elegant atmosphere, but the food easily makes up for it. I've tried many of the newer trendy Chinese restaurants in the area and they don't hold a candle to Noodles Express in terms of authenticity.

Enjoyed our meal and would come back, but would not go out of our way. The eggplant and pork was the stand out dish here. We also had dumplings and Dan Dan noodles. Nothing was overly greasy or salty -- was a big fan of that. Overall this was good Chinese food. Storefront and restrooms are not spectacular but that's not what we came for.

legit Szechuan, maybe the best in Denver, and the friendliest people! a hidden gem. Dan Dan noodles, eggplant and pork and cumbers all outstanding. Mongolian beef and mapo tofu were pretty good. Chong Qing chicken had too much Szechuan pepper and not enough flavor for us, but it was probably very authentic. Will come again or order takeout again for sure.

The cabbage was phenomenal. Loved everything we ordered (Dan Dan, cabbage and spicy beef). Service was fast, food was fresh and tasted amazing. Will definitely be back to try everything! The menu seems authentic and unique. Was too spicy for me, but so good I dealt with the pain.
