The food is always great.It being authentic is even better. Serving sizes are pretty large & could possibly be split with someone if you wanted to. They are very accommodating and friendly.Parking: The lot is shared with another storee and is pretty small but you can parl on the streetKid-friendliness: I'd say this a kid friendly place. They don't have kid menus but the servings are large enough to split between multiple kids if you happen to order an entree

Lots of great vegan options! The vegan fried mandus (dumplings) and homemade soy sauce are especially delicious! I also like the kimbap (veggie sushi) and noodle dishes. The servers are knowledgeable about vegan food and most dishes can be made vegan upon request. Be sure to specify your preferred spice level because sometimes they forget to ask.
Be prepared to stay a while. Parking is limited. It's a popular spot so when the restaurant opens, it tends to get busy pretty quick. Service is often slow but worth the wait in my opinion.

Excessive wait time to boil noodles and add powdered flavoring.My customer via Uber placed an order at 6:47pm, I arrived for pickup at 7:17pm and was told it would be an additional 40 minute wait.I waited and it took them 1hr in total to boil two packs of noodles and add flavoring and to cook an egg.This is very disappointing and causes issues with customers. So, for anyone curious as to why it takes them so long to boil noodles, it is because they’re incapable of handling steady pace work.This restaurant wasn’t even that busy.And just so everyone knows, yall are being charged heavily for some .60 cent ramen noodles packets / flavoring.

Terrible female server. Worst ambiance too. I stopped by to grab a lunch with my coworker after business meeting on the way to the MEM airport. We wanted to have Korean cuisine, that's the only reason we chose here. Wow, the server was taking forever to accommodate the customized order of ramen and japchae at other table, so I had to go to her to give what we'd like to order, mentioning we are kind of in a rush for the flight. I politely told her that, and she said go back to your seat and that she suddenly yelled as if she is high. She kept saying that I "fucking interrupted her" and that "she ruined everything." What did I do? I've waited +10mins just to place an order, and I wasn't rude. She was supposed get us two iced water, and we got nothing on the table even until this happened. We headed out immediately after her cussing at us as we got no time to waste before our flight. You should change your server! (As a Korean, the foods here overall look very bland. The vibe is also terrible with squeaky chairs, tables.)

This is my favorite restaurant in the city, but recently they have made a lot of changes in their dine in area. The string lights and adorable toy lined windows are gone and in place are cool toned over modernized sconces that leave the place feeling cold and clinical :( usually I say it’s worth the long wait to dine in because of the cozy warm atmosphere and ambient lighting, but now I think it’s just better to order it to go.

The food is not authentic korean food, it seems more like a japanese american fusion with hints of korean. the restaurant has no heating, and is way too cold in the winter. the server was nice and food came in a good time. the soups tasted good, but any non-noodle dish can be odd.
Crazy Noodle is one of my favorite places to eat in Memphis. The portions are generous for the price, and the flavors absolutely fantastic. The vegetables are always the perfect consistency when they come out (tender without falling apart) and the broth incredible. I always get the curry ramen, and it never disappoints. While I no longer live full time in Memphis, I always come out of my way to eat here when I visit.

Ive came here 2 times, the first time it was just 1 waitress and the service was fast surprisingly, the second time i came it was 2 waiters, and the service was a bit slower, considering it took him 10 min to bring sliced lemons lol, both times i went were in the afternoon, but the food does take very long to be made in both occasions, i assumed sinced its mostly ramen it shouldnt take 30-40 min to cook, but in both cases the food takes too long, ive came to the conclusion that the waiters are not fast because the food takes forever to come out anyways, the restaurant was full of the same exact customers for like 2 hours cause the food was taking so long

I love it more every time I come here. The mandu ramen or manduguk soups are my favorite. I come here semi often with my husband whenever we can get in. This is my favorite cozy restaurant in midtown. You can never go wrong here.Parking: The parking lot itself doesn't have many parking spaces and is slightly tight but there is street parking in front and to the sides of the building.
Always delicious! They'll make recommendations if you need them to. Love to add mandu to our order. If dining in then you're able to bring your own wine. The food takes time, but the staff is friendly and the food is worth it. Dim dining room- patio is also great when the weather allows.
