Small noodle shop. They make the noodles fresh and they're very chewy!

The food here was delicious, especially the noodles and cold dishes. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The service was friendly and efficient, though it could be a little more attentive at times. The atmosphere was very nice and comfortable, perfect for enjoying a relaxed meal. Overall, a great dining experience—I would definitely come back again.

Wonderful atmosphere, great food! Went here after a very long walk at The Arboretum in Arcadia. Nourishing eats that didn’t disappoint. My friend had the lamb soup with cat and glass noodle, I had the cold sesame noodles. My noodles were amazing, I took them spicy, right amount of heat. My friends lamb soup had black fungi, potatoes, glass noodles, cat ear noodles, and lamb. I’m not a lamb fan but I tried some and it was very flavorful. My friend’s lamb soup raved on and on about it. Brought home leftovers of her soup and my sauce. Did someone say seconds? I’m from Pennsylvania, but if I lived around here I’d be back again soon! Thank you 🙏
Oh and the spring onion pancakes were delicious!!!

Oof, very disappointed in their noodles sadly. The beef noodle soup does not have a rich broth with slow-roasted beef - mostly a thin sweet herbal broth.

The tomato sauce in the wife’s noodles tastes like tomato paste, instead of fresh tomatoes (too sour, not fresh). And the ground beef sauce in the wife’s noodles tasted like a jiajiang mian instant noodle packet…

I recommend XiAn Biang Biang Noodles in Rosemead for a fresher and more flavorful version of this three-topping noodle.

Positives were the beef shank tenderness, and the smooth consistency of the wife’s noodles (but not taste).

This makes me think the Michelin star system rewards western metrics of food quality, instead of sticking to cultural food traditions - ie what actual Chinese people think about the food. Which would not surprise me at all that Michelin is a tool of western colonialism / appropriation

Parking: Seemed to be enough but lot could fill up during certain times as they share with adjacent businesses

I had the opportunity to visit this Michelin-starred restaurant specializing in noodles, and I must say that the experience was overall very positive.

The house specialty, the beef noodles, were truly delicious. The meat was incredibly soft and rich, making it the highlight of the meal.

However, I felt that the broth that accompanied the noodles could have had a little more flavor. Although it was clear that a lot of care had gone into its preparation, it seemed a bit neutral to me.

Overall, I give it a rating of 8/10. Although it was not a perfect experience, the quality of the meat and the presentation of the dishes were more than enough to make up for the small deficiencies. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to any noodle and beef lover.

The knife-cut noodles at this restaurant are not Chinese knife-cut noodles, so don't be misled by the name. I waited 40 minutes, only receive the wrong dish, and they didn’t even give any apologize. Perhaps business is so good that they don’t have the time to care about small customers like us.
