Empty Bowl Gourmet Noodle

Showed up on a Wednesday night with no reservations and no plan, and was able to sit at the counter with a 5 minute wait! The noodles and sauces are quite good. We got the weekly special for Wednesday, which is Pad See Ew. Also got Khao Soi with chicken. Both were quite good!!! I particular like the Pad See Ew. Both came out quickly and fun to people-watch in the area, as well as watch the commotion in the kitchen. We left full and happy!

Spring rolls too cold, but the sauce was good. I did not like the beef soup since the Broth too dark, and beef smell too strong. Staffs are friendly. Seating at the bar and being inside the open market felt great.

We love Empty Bowl! The food is great with really good service! So flavorful! As almost always, our food was great at our most recent visit!

This is the best place in town for Pad Thai. It doesn't get any better. The public market is great! You can can all types of food hear if you are craving Thai, but your friend wants a falafel. It's great. The vibe of the PM is awesome too. You can always get some Rori's for dessert as well. Empty Bowl food is very tasty. If you're getting the Pad Thai, be sure to get extra meat and extra sauce. That will push the price point over $20, which is a little steep, but its the only way to go to do it right. There's plenty of seating inside and out. There is also free parking below the PM itself, many people don't know about that. Just take an elevator up and there you go. The PM is conveniently located at the corner of victoria and chapala. I definitely recommend. It's a for sure bright spot of Santa Barbara.

As they can see in my title was nothing from this world. just a normal lunch. the food was tasteful, but if they like teriyaki and want to drink it out of the bottle, then this is the place for them. very salty and much too much, which is about the others. I suppose that was only one way away and not the norm for them, maybe they had been busy and made it too fast. I would give them a second chance, but I will not run to them.
