Noodles near Brentwood, CA

“This place has ruined any other Chinese restaurant for me after finding this hidden gem! I debated even writing this review by telling myself not to ruin the amazing speed with which we received our food, but the thought of losing my new go-to spot due to low foot traffic was too much to bare.

I had been wanting to find a local spot that offered this style of Chinese cuisine, especially with the hand-pulled noodles and options for fresh-made dumplings, so this was a perfect place to go.

The location is near perfect, as it's very close to me by downtown Brentwood, and in an unassuming area of the shopping center. The only downside is the parking lot, but that's not the restaurants fault. The decor inside is very welcoming.

When we arrived, we were greeted right away by everyone within the open kitchen, which gives you a great view of the preparations of the fresh-made dishes, and told to take any open seat. The restaurant has approx. 15-16 tables, but even when we arrived on a weekday around 5pm, only 2 of them were being used.

The menus are small QR codes on a plaque near the edge of each table, with each code containing your table number, and directs you to a website with your restaurant's current menu. The menu has a well-organized selection of food, complete with photos of every dish, and usually a description of the ingredients. There's symbols for spice levels and the prices are clear and easy to read.

We were worried about how to request ways to customize the dishes, as it didn't appear you could at first. For some dishes, you can select between beef, pork, shrimp, etc on the dumplings and bowls, but not many other choices before adding the dish to your digital order. However, once the items are added to your digital order, you can make a wide number of customizations, including spice levels, noodle types and thickness, food allergies, and removing certain ingredients that you just don't like.

My husband and I settled on 2 main courses and 2 sides, with the plan to share the apps and enjoy our own mains. After placing the order, the food arrived in less than 3 minutes (if that!) It look longer to review the menu than for both of us to receive our main courses. I had ordered the Pork Belly with thin flat noodles and my husband ordered the Beef Broccoli Rice Bowl for our main courses, along with the Pan-Fried Dumplings and Beef & Onion Meat Pie as starters.

Needless to say, the speed showed how fresh the food was, and while we planned on sharing dishes, we each devoured our own starters and mains. The quality was excellent, the service was top-tier, and the taste was beyond explanation!

We will definitely be back!“

“I really enjoy this place I think they’re the best dumpling spot in Brentwood service has always been great and the food is always quality. We stumbled across this place and we were pleasantly surprised with how good it was definitely worth a visit!“

“This is the best spot for Pho in the bay! They have other really tasty dishes too, like the pork and mango salad rolls, but the Pho is the best. Atmosphere is relaxed. Staff are really nice. You’re never rushed and service can be taken as being a bit slow because of that. From what I’ve seen, people who are rushed or want to be upity and wowed don’t have a good time here. For me, the #18 and a Vietnamese iced coffee never fails. Cheers!! 👍🏽“

“Food is always good! The best that we've found in the area! Staff is always friendly!“
