My family love all the foods in this restaurant. The restaurant is not big but the food is delicious. Especially, the La Zi Ji (spicy fried chicken), the lady is super nice and friendly. Highly recommend it.

The human touch of a bowl of noodles⋯When I used to work at a newspaper in Mengcheng City, I would go to this Shanghai aunt’s noodle shop with other reporters to dine ?She remembered our preferences and faces after several visits. We didn’t meet for a while after leaving the job. One day we met by chance on the road, and my aunt still remembered me!After chatting for a while and saying goodbye, she said that she wanted to treat her to a meal next time she went to a restaurant. I didn't take it to heart. Until a few days ago, I drove by and wanted to eat their bowl of noodles. When I walked in, she was talking on the phone to take orders. When she saw my eyes widened, she asked me to sit down. Not long after, my dry noodles were served. Plus a red oil snack as a treat.This bowl of noodles is quite special. It is neither fried noodles nor sesame noodles, but fried sesame noodles mixed with two sauces. The menu is called "Strange Flavor Noodles". The taste is quite rich. When eating, you should mix it with raw cucumber. The noodles, sauce and refreshing cucumber naturally form a delicious balance that makes you want to take another bite.Maybe it's so strange. After eating it for the first time, I ordered this bowl of noodles from the store every time I came back. Several times when I walked into the store, my aunt yelled at the kitchen, knowing that this was what I ordered.While eating noodles, we talked about many things, including the decline of the newspaper office, and many people left! There are all new faces now, and the lively scenes before are no longer there. I smiled and said, many old employees should come back to see you, right? She laughed and said that it was true. Every once in a while, old faces come to reminisce, including me who showed up today.When she was leaving after the meal, she waved her hand and said don't give me any money. I said give me a tip! I just left the money on the table and emphasized that I would still come back. Not only was this bowl of noodles the most important thing, the human touch was priceless.

You go for the food! Very reasonable prices. Every dish we ordered was tasty. I'm told a husband and wife own and operate the kitchen and dining room. The server/wife speaks Mandarin and no English, so you'll have to communicate by pointing!

This is a small local mom & pop restaurant. The food doesn't look fancy but it's very good. We have been going to this restaurant for years. We are so glad that their business survived COVID. My favorite appetizer is a cold dish called mala beef. The meat ball (lion head) is very good. The noodles and house fried rice are yummy too.

I have been eating here on and off for almost 7 years, and the store lives up to its name. Especially my favorite fried eggplant with sauce is as delicious as ever.

Awesome food awesome service

On Monday, I ordered spicy beef noodles, stir-fried assorted noodles and scallion pancakes. On Tuesday, I ordered three cups of chicken, Kung Pao beef and hot pot tofu. It's normal to eat it three or four times a week. It tastes good.

Been coming to this place for 13 years.

Authentic Taiwanese feel good restaurant. Cute hole in the wall spot with great “knife cut noodles” and dumplings!

Tasty noodles and other Chinese dishes with good price. They also sell big bag of different kinds of frozen dumplings (50pcs) for around 25

First time dining here. Surely recommend!
