Food here tasted great at first but as you eat it, it just starts to not taste as good. In my opinion the flavors were too strong that it hits you in the face or leaves a strange after taste to it(could just be the spices or seasoning they use).
We got the beef spicy noodle soup, ground pork noodle, num pork ribs, soup dumplings both shrimp and pork. I will say that the shrimp&pork dumpling were amazing and what would make me to want to come back for which exceeded my expectations. There were some veggies in the num pork ribs, not sure what they were, maybe mushrooms that has a wrinkled sort of dried cabbage looking texture that was also very good. I just skipped the ribs and ate those. My cousin enjoyed the ribs a lot though, but the seasoning is a bit too strong for me considering I love strong sishuan peppercorns like from hot pot. Overall, food was ok, generous portions and if I came back, its for the soup dumplings and maybe to try other dishes. Definitely need more water though.

Sorry folks I don’t take a picture of the bathroom. But it was just a normal looking bathroom. Nothing out of the ordinary. Plain black walls and no decor.
Customer Service: 3.5/5
Minimal interaction but they refilled our waters so that’s nice.

Classic modern chines restaurant vibes. Bright and clean.

Proportions were weird. It was hella lot of noodles and I barely had any meat. Also it was just all green pepper. There was like one piece of onion somewhere. But overall sauce was good and noodles were good texture

The portions are quite generous -- especially the amount of their noodles, regardless of the type of noodles you select. Our table of 6 each ordered a different bowl, and each us left pleased -- AMD full. Check out the videos and photos.

The noodles are next level good! They also go hard on the flavor. The only thing is it is a little salty. But otherwise great!!! Large portions so don't order with your eyes.

The braised beef noodles were absolutely delicious, and I really appreciated that the server packed our leftovers for us! I would definitely come back again.

They still has good menu with Lanzhou Lamian, lamb skewer. However, their foods taste old. After eating there, my bro felt clogges, and i had 3 really spicy bowel movement within 12h

I started coming here a few years ago when they first opened. The food is really good back then and the service was really good.
I came back recently to try the food again. The food is okay but missing a little something from when the restaurant first opened. The reason for the one star rating is because we asked one of the staff members for a bowl so we could share the food. She delivered the bowl with a finger grabbing the inside of the bowl. We then witnessed her bus a table with gloves on touching all the dirty dishes. Then set the table with clean dishes but using the same dirty gloves she used to bus the table. It was quite nauseating to see. Now I'm questioning how clean their practices are back in the kitchen. Sadly it'll probably be my last visit.

Very tasty, great value, going to have to explore more here 🤗
Easy to order, service and food was quick.
Not quite sure how spicy 🔥 is too spicy but we opted to go with a mix of mild and spicy.

I ordered the Spicy pork short rib Noodle soup, which always comes with cooked bok-choy and bone-in short ribs. The broth comes in a separate bowl with a soup spoon, letting you combine it with your noodles as desired. There's seasonings to the side that you can use like chili oil and sauces.
Every time I've come here, the meat falls right off the bone and the cartilage is lovely. The seasonings are not overpowering and the noodles carry the flavor the entire way. The broth always comes out nice and rich, not watery, and the noodles are pleasant.
The staff have been incredible, always seem happy to work and even eat there. It's nice to see them enjoying the food as much as the customers and they're always very kind. They deserve every tip they get.
The restaurant is very clean and decorated, the music isn't too loud and the experience feels very comforting.
The menu is extensive and offers knife cut noodles as well as hand pulled with various sizes from belt to thin. There's even crab rangoons and a cold tofu dish which is fresh and pleasant. There's definitely something for everyone.
Overall; if you're in the area and are craving some noodles, stop by and bring your friends! You won't be disappointed.

Edit 9/29: after talking with other family and friends who have tried this place, they all experienced DIARRHEA soon after leaving this place. I thought it was just me but if you check reviews others have experienced it too. Something very wrong is happening in that kitchen and the health department should be notified.
Saw this place on instagram a few days ago and went to try the other day. The food was okay and everything was alright until the waiter demanded tip. In an aggressive and condescending tone said “so you’re not gonna tip? Where’s the cash?” (Edit: I was gonna tip in cash but after he acted that way, I didn’t) He even stared at me after he walked away. I felt so uncomfortable as a woman!! And why in the world would I tip for a service that doesn’t exist? No one came to take my order, it was through a QR code. No one checked in to see if the food was okay. He just stood there the whole time. The audacity to DEMAND tip for NOTHING?! I’m glad I didn’t leave a tip now. Terrible customer service. What a disgrace of a food establishment. Will be telling others to stay away from here.

The noodles are good. However, can we have an option for a smaller portion of noodles. The current portion is too large for me and wasting good is not cool.

So confused why it’s so highly rated. For the environment and service maybe? Service is standard but food taste like it’s from premade package or powder. The meat tasted stale/腥. I never tasted such obvious 预制菜 or maybe restaurant somehow specializes in 预制菜 making? Baffled.

We've been there for my brothers bday, my husband, and now my daughter is asking to go there for her bday dinner.
I love spicy food, and they have that. Also, with 3 young kids, they have great non-spicy options for them and it's delicious. Their favorites are stir fried vegetables (i forgot the name), and stir fried egg noodles with tomatoes & eggs. My husband likes the lamb skewers, and I love a number of their noodle soups.
