As I was in the casino and starting to feel hungry my friend and I had just walked by fat noodle. The smell intrigued me into going and having a feed. The service was quick considering how packed this little joint was. I decided on the traditional spicy chicken stirfry. It was extremely tasty but I would have expected it to be more spicy than it was. I ended up putting the table spicy sauce over it. The rice in this dish was jasmin which by far is my go to rice when I’m not eatting healthy so thay was an awesome treat to the dish. My friend ordered the Angus beef stir fry and I preferred this one over the chicken. The noodles used in this dish made it light and the cucumber added a lovely freshness to the dish that left my taste buds refreshed and cool. I would highly recommend this place if you are ever at the casino enjoying a night out. I’m sure I’ll be back at one point or another.

Fat Noodz doods! Fat Noodz! I was here with a Singaporean Aussie maaaaaate, and once I said«Mee Goreng looks good», she said«no way that’s my favourite!» and within minutes we were both tucking into large servings of the good stuff. Despite being completely full(we got the last table) the service was fast and efficient. We were presented with tea within moments, and had our orders taken and prepared within a few minutes. I expected a long wait, and was pleasantly surprised when the table next to us received their food promptly and we followed soon after. The food was quite expensive, however this restaurant is INSIDE the casino. If you can’t afford to spend, you probably shouldn’t be in the building, in the first place. Whilst not being exceptional, the food, service and price all came in at just above my expectations. So it gets a 4! I’d definitely come back.

Everytime my partner comes here for work we always end up having at least one meal here. The service is quick and the food is tasty if slightly on the expensive side for viet food. You can’t expect any bargains inside a casino. I do love that they still give complimentary hot tea. We always have the sliced Angus beef with rice vermicelli and the beef cubed with pepper and rice.

This casual dining restaurant is at the Star and inside its casino so you need an ID to get in. Nguyen’s signature dish«Fat Phở Noodles» is pretty tasty, especially the 20-hour beef broth, umami without MSG. Prawn and pork wontons are nice as well. A nice place to alleviate hunger after trying your luck.

Food is good for the price. Go there at lunch. Dinner time can be hard to get a table. Be pushy getting attention from waiters. Once u have a seat service is great, very prompt. Try the salt and pepper tofu, laksa and noodle soup. Don’t get the chicken rice, it’s below par.

Great quality food, but a bit expensive for Vietnamese food(or something you would eat every day) when you can go into Haymarket/Chinatown and get the same meal for half the price. But this place is perfect for the tourist who’s staying around darling harbour(or staying at the casino), because this place opens late, accepts credit cards(save on those cash advances that you get slugged with while traveling), and obviously you don’t have to travel far(no need to figure out the tram schedule or worry about getting stuck somewhere unfamiliar).

2 Star Service, 4 Stars for Food, but pricey for Chinese/Vietnamese! Located in Star City, upstairs from the food court, through the gambling area and left of the digital chocolate wheel… We were seated in a reasonable time, but otherwise the service was incredibly slow. We had been sitting for 15 minutes before anyone came to take our order. I actually had to ask to order. Once we ordered our food and drinks came out in a reasonable time. The food itself was quite tasty. We ordered a duck and rice dish which was a little heavy on the sauce but over all quite good. Our second dish was the Mee Goreng noodles with prawns which was delicious– my boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed this one, I felt guilty about asking him to share! Over all the food was good but $ 18 for a bowl of Phở? A bit rich for my blood, but then maybe the pokie machines in Star City are paying out for dinner

Considering Luke Nguyen’s Red Lantern has a 2 month waiting list, in the meantime get yourself down to The Star casino and grab a bite to eat at Fat Noodle. It is definitely a far less formal affair, but the prices reflect that(in fact it only costs a little more than food court fare) and if you don’t mind a casual dining ambience in the middle of a casino then you are in for a treat. The spanner crab special(not on the main menu) was a mere $ 21 dollars and is literally finger lickin’ good. The duck curry was also wonderful(the duck had nice crispy skin and a healthy serving of vegetables and had a wonderfully subtle sauce wherein the heat built up slowly. I am definitely coming back here. It even makes up for the $ 25 parking fee for the casino.

This is the place to dine in at the Star — the place to spend your last dollars consoling yourself with a bowl of delicious soup, or treating your friends to dinner with your four-digit winnings. Located conveniently metres away from all your gambling wants, Fat Noodle is a great source of comfort food with a good dining experience. The food is hearty(particularly the soup) and reasonably priced, or you can spend your hard-earned…elsewhere(i.e. at the poker machines that surround you). Due to the aforesaid convenience, traffic in and out of this place is intense, so grab a table early or you might have to wait to get a seat.
