S K Noodle

Good food and very worth the price for what you get. A lot of other reviews talk about a long wait but first off it’s covid and second we dined in for lunch and had our food in less then 15 minutes maybe even less than ten but we also saw people come in and order and get their food while we ate. Total was less than $30 for two bowls of a pho and two sides of fried rice. Very delicious. We got the wonton soup and the spicy beef pho. Excellent choices. We ate like half our food before taking photos.

To start off with, it was a slow day in the restaurant and my friends and I were a party of four. There was a specific waitress that was rude from the start, we come to found out later that the reason she was being rude was because we asked for more time; I understand how that can become annoying as times but there’s no reason why that should be used as a motive to be rude to paying customers. The waitress had long black hair and was slim with tan skin, the reason I’m writing a description is solemnly because when I called the restaurant to ask for the waitress’s name she refused to give it to me and said, “if you have a problem with me just tell me.” Not only did she say that over the phone but when I asked her about a menu item being charged twice when I asked to cancel the second item she simply told me, “well next time check the menu better”, the only reason why I was concerned with paying for the extra item was because the items weren’t cheap it was 18.50 for a small portion of one item. Not only was the waitress rude she also gave us the wrong change and when we waited for the change she said in a rude tone, “ what else can I help you guys with.” Another thing with the restaurant is the quality of the food, there were two pregnant women in our party of four and when they took a large bite of the “fried shrimp” that comes with the 18.50 family price it had raw batter inside and the shrimp was not fully cooked, when we ordered the walnut shrimp the batter wasn’t cooked fully once again and the sauce was mayonnaise. In our opinion this experience was horrible and we couldn’t get ANYTHING refunded even though we were overly charged, given raw food, practically only attended once throughout a 2 hour “dinner”, and given burned overpriced food. I DO NOT recommend this restaurant to ANYONE, you’d get more food at a better quality and cheaper price at Panda Express or any other fast food chain restaurant than this “authentic Vietnamese & Chinese food” restaurant.

SK noodle has improved their food game since the ownership change. They're still mediocre, but its your best choice in Sparks for Vietnamese food. Personally, I would only go there out of convenience because there are way better options in Reno for less money. Mesiocre food that is over priced, but very convenient if you happen to not want to drive downtown.
