Editorial Review for La-Cai Noodle House – by Robyn Galbos

The Scene
Once a Mexican take-out restaurant, La-Cai looks like an unlikely place for a noodle house. The exterior is a bit shabby, but the dining room is clean and service is friendly. Diners are in casual mode. An aquarium diverts your attention from the State Street traffic.

The Food
Stir-fry vegetables are fresh and crisp and the sauces are flavorful. For appetizers, try the pot stickers and the spring rolls. And if you like noodles, you've come to the right place. For entrees, the vermicelli rice noodle dishes are popular, and the stir-fry flat noodles are hearty and delicious. Or if you prefer to spice it up, try the sauteed lemon grass and chili chicken over steamed rice.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I cant think of one thing I have ever tried there that I didnt like! If you like shrimp your in the right spot, they make the best. I love their soups and egg rolls too! Very clean nice place, not fancy but still a great place for a date. I have always thought their servers were great, they are around often enough that you are always taken care of yet they dont interrupt your meal/conversation too much.

Pros: Clean, nice ambience, friendly unobtrusive service, GREAT FOOD

Cons: I over-eat every time!

This is my go-to restaurant in SLC, incredible food, quick service, very reasonable prices. My friends have long since given up trying to get my to go elsewhere when we're in town. Everything I've had is good, but for the PERFECT meal, get the fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce, and the #33 or #34. MMMMMM!

Pros: quaint, excellent prices, fantastic food, quick service and drink refilling

Cons: occasionally really busy at night, but not extreme

Editor's Review

The exterior of this noodle house reveals its Mexican roots, but the authentic Asian cuisine proves looks can be deceiving.  See the full editorial review.
