We ordered through Uber- the broths that came with the milky pork broth and Hong Kong style noodle soup was amazingly flavorful. The pork belly for both dishes were overcooked, super chewy and dry. We also ordered cream cheese avocado wontons w plum sauce; the cream cheese and avocado are so bland and couldn’t taste any seasonings added to it. The plum sauce is very delicate so all you taste is the frying of the wonton.

Pick up Order:Staff was friendly upon pick-up. Staff also read the special instructions note and granted my request asking for pepper that I could add to my Hong Kong Noodles.Best Asian fusion place I've been to. Loved the notable Southeast Asian notes with popular East Asian Dishes. Will have to try more of the menu to find more Asian influences!Food: As a Lao gal, I loved everything!!Hong Kong Style Noodles: Broth was so I good I had to take a second sip to make sure I tasted it right. The Cha Shu Pork was absolutely amazing! I usually don't like that style of pork because of the texture I usually find in ramen, but this Cha Shu Pork was SO SO SO flavorful and cooked to perfection that it just melted in my mouth. It must've been basted over flame because the flavor was present throughout the pieces (4) and it has a yummy sweet, charred umami flavor.Szechuan Spicy Chicken Wontons: ACTUALLY spicy and were yummy and filling. New kind of wrap for me (thin and silky) but still delicious.Satay Chicken: I smelled the satay chicken the moment I got back in my car. I had to fight myself from digging into the bottom of the bag and taking a bite right then and there. They wrapped it in foil so it was still warm and flavorful when I got home.Beer: Learning to like beer, but the TOM YUM BEER American Wheat Beer was so refreshing and helped cut through the spices so I could continue to enjoy my meal (it actually says it on the back! I didn't see until after my meal lol). Cool to see the other Thai beers, will be trying them next time!Overall 11/10! Will be going back and trying the rest of the menu.Vegetarian options: All the vegetarian dishes have a green "VH" marked at the bottom of the description. SEA food tends to have a good variety of Vegetarian dishes.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible right off the sidewalk and is a one story shop with no stairs or barriers. Swing door must be pulled open and is the standard door size. Tables and chairs can be moved to be accessible to wheelchair users.

The atmosphere is very awkward from the very beginning. Food is great, but this guy almost bursted a vein demanding a tip. Got angry at my wife. He was going to be given one, but the way he spoke to my wife was just uncalled for. This is very weird behavior compared to all the other similar restaurants in the area. I’d love to speak to the owners off the clock.

Easily my favorite place to eat! The staff is so friendly and the food is 10/10! I just ate there yesterday and I’m craving it again. :) I try to get something new every time I go and the new dishes never disappoint.

This is my go to place for a big bowl of comfort, my favorite is the creamy tom yum with udon no meat extra veggies. The broth is unbelievably delicious, perfect amount of coconut milk and lemongrass and the noodles are the best texture. Reasonable price for large portions and the staff is always very nice when I come in no matter how busy they are (:Vegetarian options: The soups come topped with pork but they will happily prepare it without (: The only time there was a confusion the server was very kind and had a fresh one prepared.

Do not recommend due to poor service and hygiene. Noodles came with a bunch of egg shells mixed in ? Waiter did not do anything about it despite our complaint. We paid for the dish anyway to avoid further confrontation and ruining our date.

This is our second time trying and our second time being highly disappointed. It was flavorless, dry, undercooked, you name it. I hate leaving bad reviews but save yourself from here.

Passed by here a million times going to the Friendly next door and finally ordered on Doordash. Got the pad see ew w/ chicken. The chicken was cooked well, not dry. The noodles were cooked perfectly, but the flavor was BLAND AF. Sorry, but I will never feel inclined to return here based on this dish. I'll just go to Thai Time a few blocks over where you can literally smell the food from across the street.

I have been to the nood bar at least 4 times and the food and service has always been excellent. Try the mi goreng or the drunken noodles both dishes are great.
