Rock solid little spot for lunch.Fast service, reasonable portions, and (from what i can tell) quality ingredients with vegetarian options. One of those places where you really can't choose poorly because everything is so good. The garlic yaki udon and the NuDo wings are particular favorites of mine, as is any dish with their Udon Noodles.

Such a nice cozy restaurant in Cambridge! Simple format, order at the counter, grab yourself some water and take a seat. Looked to be a one woman show in the front, but she was doing an amazing job even with a full house and was so kind. We ordered the chive cakes and the pork noodle soup. Loved the sauce for the chive cakes, wish they were ~ever so slightly less dark, but still great, and the noodle soup was good too! Don't forget to bus your table when you're done so others can find a seat!

Kao soi had chicken falling off the bone, great broth. Tom yum soup also had great soup base, generous amount of meat

A good noodle place if you're only interested in the noodles and soup base. The interior is clean, service is kind, and the food was good.We ordered two noodle soups and a shrimp tempura appetizer. - The Kao Soi was bursting with flavor and filled with a wonderful medley of textures. Definitely recommend getting the Kao Soi if you're unsure about your order (and if you like coconut milk). The only thing disappointing was their chicken thigh. It was overcooked and dry :(.- Their Pork Noodle Soup was flavorful but light. Like the Kao Soi, the soup and noodles were delicious but the meat was dry. - The shrimp tempura was also ok. Crispy and tasty but imo not worth the price.

First time in and we had the tofu kao soi. The flavor of the broth and the garnishes were divine. Definitely some of the best food we have had in Boston and a super reasonable price. Will definitely be back!!

I got delivery from this restaurant on GrubHub. My order was delivered very quickly, so I was quite happy with that. While I can't comment on the service or ambiance, I can comment on the food for sure!I ordered the Kee Mao, which reminded me of Drunken Noodles or Pad See Ew. The texture of the noodles was perfect, with just the right amount of chew. I requested for my dish to be spicy, and it most certainly had a kick! Since I was in the mood for something hearty, I got both chicken and tofu. The chicken was a bit dry and nothing special, but the tofu was delicious and had an interesting consistency. I was satisfied with the amount of vegetables and the dish was filling overall. Next time, I'd love to try some of their more popular dishes.

Went back for different noodles and it was just as amazing!! My curry noodles (I believe....) were creamy and extremely filling. There was so much flavor and meat, it was definitely worth the price!
I consistently get more pieces of pork in the pork noodle soup than other more well known ramen/noodle places. It’s great!!Crispy bok choy appetizer I highly recommend.

This place is THE best. At this point I've gotten their pork noodle soup dozens of times— it's so savory and delicious and the warm broth makes it incredibly comforting. It's great value and they also have incredibly friendly staff!

You order at a counter and clean up your table, but they change a compulsory 20% gratuity for parties of 5 or more for eat in. This would be totally understandable if it were a full service sit down restaurant, but it just makes no sense.The food here is great and I come here often because it’s close by. I especially like the Kao SoiThis place is 5 stars if they change this silly policy

I was sick. Have been sick for over a month. Though it was the flu, and it ended up being some sort of bacterial infection. Then to add insult to injury I got food from a restaurant that will not be named and was chained to a toilet and my intestines could not get right.I got the simple soup from Nu Do' Society that was GF, some extra rice noodles, two fired eggs, and ginger tea, as well ginger ale in hopes of righting the ship. I finally felt like a person again after this very simple meal. The only negative was that I had a Canada Dry Ginger Ale from here that was really messed up and amber colored instead of the clear color it normally is, and tasted super off. Three sips and I had to pour it down the drain.I feel like the food came out quickly and they were accommodating.

Really kind people running nu do, always makes for a comfortable and enjoyable environment. Personal preference that my tempura isn’t in my udon because it gets soggy. The green curry is spicy with great flavor.
