Simply Asia Spicy Mongolian Noodle Bowl, 8.5 oz (Pack of 6)

I was doubtful when I tried one of these. Packaged noodle bowls in general are sometimes adequate, sometimes even good, but I'd rarely go so far as to call them great. These are great. Usually there's a tradeoff between convenience and quality, but these really are incredibly simple to make — you just mix everything together in the provided bowl, add a bit of water, and nuke for a minute and a half — and they really are satisfying. The sauce reminds me of the general tso's sauce that a particular Chinese place near the house where I grew up used — it's moderately spicy (enough heat to cause a bit of a flush, but not enough to make my nose run) and sweeter than what you find at most Chinese restaurants.The portion, and the ratio of noodles to sauce, is perfect. I wouldn't have thought it was big enough in my teens or 20s, but these days, it's exactly the right amount of food for a light meal.I'm perfectly capable of cooking for myself, but let's face it: during the week, I rarely have the motivation. I can eat leftovers of whatever I cooked during the weekend until they run out, but after that, weeknight meals tend to be sandwiches, bagels, toast, and prepackaged meals. I really wasn't expecting to find a vegetarian prepackaged meal that I actually craved, but I did.Note: I've looked at some of the other flavors. The teriyaki one is decent, but not as good as this one, and the curry one isn't actually vegetarian.Note 2: Some of the other reviews mentioned only getting one bowl rather than the promised six pack. I won't swear that you'll have the same experience, but I got a case of six.

Arrived on time, as described and in good condition.One of our favorite light lunches. We also like to pair it with chicken breast and a side veggy for dinner.While I would not classify this as spicey hot dish it does have a little warmth to it, just the right amount of spicey without being over powering hot.

Not really spicy. But Simply Asia makes some solid noodle bowls. I bought this because of the pandemic. The seasoning or flavor is good. A bit sweet for me though. And the noodles have a nice chew. I think that's extremely important, when instant noodles bowls like this. That's 75% of the equation. As long as the seasoning is decent, you have a winner in my book. You can always dress up the flavor. But if the noddles are horrible then it's a lost cause.

The noodles were delicious & the salt content was honestly not noticeable. I found hair in one of my bowls however. And while these noodle bowls were delicious, they were not at all spicy for me; I noticed no spicy flavor other than mild herbs. Still, it is something I would get again just to have, minus the hair moving forward.

I'm really enjoying this product, a "dry" noodle dish rather than a soupy one. Very tasty, with moderate chili warmth and good "chew." I wondered about the precooked noodles, but they have excellent texture. I do think a little more water and an extra 30 sec. cooking time wouldn't hurt (and I do have a 1200W m/w). For an office lunch, the price is probably fair, since it comes with its own bowl—a genuine convenience food. If you're eating at home, the bowl may be superfluous, but, hey, that's just how they "bowl." (I know, bad pun, groan.)

This isn’t your usual bland ramen bowl. The sauce in these noodle bowls is very tasty! I find that one bowl is good for a big snack or small meal, but when I make these for dinner I always make two of them. I’m a big noodle fan, so I like a big bowl for a meal. The flavors are great, and it only takes 90 seconds to cook. It’s a quick and easy to cook item. They are always sold out at my local grocery, so now I order by the case on Amazon.

taste like cheap sweet and sour sauce

There is not much pepper 'heat' here. The spices are of the non-hot variety, so if you want heat you'll have to add it. Otherwise pretty good and easy to prepare. I tend to add at least a few chopped jalapenos or some dried hot pepper flakes or hot sauce before microwaving it. It makes a good base to toss in a little chopped up leftover meat or veggies, too. A quick meal.
