Nai Meng Crab Noodles is a long-running Chinese-style egg noodle shop at the mouth of Soi Ari 1, about five minutes' walk from BTS Ari. It is one branch of a small Bangkok noodle name known for thin, springy house-made egg noodles, crab meat and oversized shrimp wontons, served with BBQ pork, crispy pork, braised chicken or a do-everything Hong Tae bowl. Rice plates with BBQ pork, crispy pork and Chinese sausage are on the menu too. The room is small, with about 15 seats, and fills with office workers at lunch. Most bowls cost roughly 70-180 baht. It opens daily from the morning until about 20:00-21:00, and delivery is available through the apps. Opinions are mixed: many praise the noodles and wontons, others find the broth too mild.
Rating from public reviews
Each part combines public reviews from several sites (133 reviews). Not our own visit.
Fans come back for the thin, chewy egg noodles, the crab meat and the big, juicy shrimp wontons at everyday prices.
Some find the broth bland and the pork wontons small, and orders can get muddled when the tiny shop is busy.
