Delicious house made noodles with a nice view of Green Street for people watching. The restaurant itself is fairly casual and sparsely decorated but clean. You order from a digital menu which consists of a range of mainly noodle dishes and rice bowls. I had the braised beef noodle soup with egg noodles and found it delicious. The noodles were perfectly chewy and springy, and paired well with the rich, flavorful broth and well spiced (although somewhat dry) meat). The portion was huge (for my appetite at least, I say others devour the same dish) and left plenty of leftovers. I do wish it came with a few more toppings to balance out the heaps of noodles.
Solid authentic Chinese fast food option. Food is fresh and cooked well. Portions are large and about what you’d expect to get for the price. Atmosphere is like a cafe and less like a restaurant. The menu on the wall is only in chinese though.
Worst Chinese food( infact worst food) we have ever tasted in our lives. Waste of money, time and Monday night dinner with my family. It was a bowl of bad quality rice, topped with 4/5 tiny pieces of dry, smudged, mushy beef, mushy sliced tomatoes, sour mashed pickles, boiled buk choy and old hard boiled horrible egg that was totally inedible! I would never recommend anyone to try their so called horrible Chinese food!😡 and their was a bowl of hot water sprinkled with few pieces of green onion mentioned as “ soup”!
Definitely recommend that you order ahead and expect to wait a while if it gets busy. When I went, there were only two people taking orders and preping the food. It took about 45 mins for 8 orders to come out. The owners don't speak English at all but will understand you if you point though.
Im disappointed with the food here. My expectation and the reality are different. Meat had unpleasant taste and kinda wasn’t fried but boiled. And our noodles with vegetables had 4 pieces of vegetables. And I couldn’t get good description of the meal. When I asked what is that meal, the woman said hmmmm it is “name of the meal” with vegetables. Like I know it is with vegetables but what kind of meal? But she described fully for another customers! I don’t deserve the same full description??? I paid for meat noodles and vegetable noodles with 2 cokes 31$ that was too much for experience. Again disappointed
