⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great casual spot in Lakeview for a quick, comforting noodle fix. The veggie options are easy to customize and the food is warm, filling, and satisfying without being overly heavy or complicated. Perfect for a relaxed meal or takeout. Special shoutout to our waitress Eve — she was amazing, attentive, and made the experience even better with her friendly service.

I had a great experience at Penny’s Noodle Shop. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The dishes were well-seasoned and the portions were generous. Everything I tried had a really nice balance of flavor, especially the sauces. The atmosphere was relaxed and perfect for a casual meal. Overall, it’s a solid spot in Chicago and definitely somewhere I’d come back to.

This is a cute little hole in the wall noodle shop with a really cozy feel. The service stood out right away, everyone was so kind and attentive which made the whole experience really pleasant. We started with a few apps including the chicken satay, crispy roll, edamame, and gyoza. Everything was solid, and the crispy roll was definitely the most unique and memorable of them. For mains, we ordered the chicken noodle soup and pad Thai. Both were decent, but I was hoping for a bit more flavor overall. The highlight for us was the Thai tea, it was honestly so good and something I would come back for.

I feel like first visits can go either way… but mine at Penny’s Noodle Shop instantly felt like one of those places I already knew I’d be back to. It’s right under the Brown Line, so you’ve got the trains passing overhead, a little city noise, people walking by it just feels very Chicago in the best way. Nothing fancy, just cozy, real, and easy to settle into. We ordered a mix (because obviously I needed to try everything on my first time 😅). The gyoza were crispy and packed with flavor, the spring rolls were super fresh, and the Panang curry with shrimp… yeah, that one stayed with me. Rich, creamy, but not heavy. But the egg noodles with BBQ pork? That was the standout for me. And when Eve brought over that house vinegar hot sauce wow. That little detail took it to another level. We also got the Mango Sour and Raspberry Sour, which honestly felt like elevated lemonade light, refreshing, perfect vibe. What I didn’t expect was how warm the whole experience felt. Eve and Lue made everything feel so natural, like you’re not just another table. That kind of service makes a difference. For a first time, it didn’t feel like a “try” it felt like the start of a new go-to spot. And I
