4 /5 Brian Benefield: Most importantly, the food is delicious. We have eaten here countless times and the dishes are always rich in flavor with copious servings. I will say that the service could be better. It is not that the staff arent pleasant, but it is consistently impersonal with a base level of friendliness. We try not to think much of it because we enjoy the food so much but I was motivated to leave a review after our last experience. The restaurant closes at 8:30 and we arrived at 8:10. That is probably not ideal but we immediately felt that we were holding up the staff as they prepared to leave for the day. Before our entrees arrived, we were asked if we wanted dessert because the kitchen was going to close. The whole experience felt rushed and we were not taking our sweet time because we were aware of the hour. Because we have been there so many times, I feel comfortable saying that it feels like service is not the number one priority. Yes it is fast, and the staff members arent rude at all, but thats not high praise when it comes to service. I worked in a restaurant for years and was taught to really focus on the customers satisfaction. SEA Noodle Bar does a lot of things right but they could turn up the charm a little and be more personable.
