Review of Smack Noodle

This ramen restaurant that has just opened in Maynard has two menu sections that are gluten-free-friendly. Both the chefs and the waitress addressed the request for gluten free food thoughtfully, and the waitress double-checked on a couple of items for us when she didn’t know the answer off the top of her head. Skip the ramen and the udon, both of which are made of wheat.The Japanese curry with rice was delicious, and the rice (for those rice connoisseurs out there), was perfectly cooked and served on a separate dish. This is a proper way to serve rice in parts of the world. Japanese curry is not spicy, and slightly sweet, and includes both carrots and potatoes. We tried it with chicken. Skip the crispy chicken, which is made with wheat.There are several rice noodle dishes that we will go back to try. The decor is simple, the staff is welcoming, the food is delicious, and the price is reasonable.
