Taste is okay, not too salty which is good. I like the seal on the packaging but wish it came in a small box like the other brands because some of the noodles broke easily

We liked this. Need to buy again but sodium is too high.

I love these somen noodles. It's great for salads, noodles or even to have it Italian style (with red or white sauce). It cooks in 2 minutes so it's quick for weekdays meals. The package is pre-portioned in 3, which I also find convenient.

I made cold noodles with this and the noodles were so chewy and savory. I love Ottogi’s products and this was beyond my expectation! The best of the white noodles.

I always keep a bottle of this on hand when I run out of the packaged soup base for hot pot. I also add a pack of spices into the hot pot too. This is a great back up for emergency hot pot sessions

My go-to for a quick and easy meal. Very versatile- can used as a dipping sauce or soup. Tasty- salty with a mild seafood flavor.

Never had somen in a restaurant before but this taste really good to me - both as a dipping sauce and soup. It has a mild seafood and soy sauce flavor and not too salty.
