A noodle dish costs 20 knives. The beef slices are full of crumbs when you bite into them. Are you reluctant to buy better beef? Please check the quality control. If this continues, I will eat from the Liangjia Noodle shop next to you. Besides, the soup base has no garlic flavor at all. Why is it getting worse and worse?

Toppings: crispy pork is the most impressive topping by a mile. Then pork feet is also great with generous portion. Brisket is too chewy, not my favorite . Other toppings are good but does not stand outSoup can be improved from my opinion. That’s the reason of the missing star.It is worth a try!

It's average and edible, the soy milk is a small cup, the fried dough sticks are pretty good, the snail rice noodles definitely don't taste as good as those in the supermarket, and the Guilin rice noodles are just so-so.

Thunder fried chicken wings! ! ! It was fried very dry, burnt and salty! The point is that I can’t understand why fried chicken wings don’t have chicken wings at all! But the menu says fried chicken wings!

The pork layou noodle soup was an ideal choice, especially on a chilly day. The marriage of rice noodles with a spicy, fermented broth delivered the perfect balance of flavors--an impeccable savory blend. The heat of the dish complemented the homemade soy milk excellently, making it a satisfying and swift lunch option. This delightful experience guarantees a return visit for me.

Guilin noodles are a delight. Nice ropy noodles complement sour/savory broth, "creating a harmonious symphony of taste," (chatgpt.) The inclusion of peanuts, pickled green bean, fried tofu puff, yuba and tofu skin make it perfect. I prefer the vegetarian over the beef etc ones, though I'm not actually vegetarian. Love the place, better than similar ones in the city.

We went on a Sunday at lunchtime. There was no wait to be seated. There weren't that many people there but still, the service was pretty good.Food-wise, I think it was ok too. The noodles weren't super tasty and the broth seemed bland but I'll also say, that probably means they didn't use a ton of salt or MSG to artificially make the food taste better or to cover up inadequate cooking skills.All in all, still a good restaurant to eat at. I would come here again at least to try another noodle item make sure I'm judging the food fairly.

Service is very helpful -- they realize everyone doesn't want to order online. The first item on the menu, Five Blessings Guilin Rice Noodles (with soup) is totally yummy and we keep coming back for that alone. The curry is mild and very tasty as well. Don't come on Thursdays, but check this place out.

Solid restaurant for a big, hearty, comforting bowl of noodle soup. Staff is friendly and food is fast and casual. The crispy pork is especially good and gives a nice fatty crunch that complements any noodles well. They have some "free" promos going on right now, and the fried egg is wispy, crunchy, and delicious

A bowl of Beef Laoyou Fried Noodles costs 16.99, totaling 21.42 knives plus tax and tip. It tastes terrible, the quantity is very small, there are only two pieces of meat, really just two pieces, the noodles are not stir-fried, and the noodles are rotten. I can't afford it. The most important thing is the acid. I have never eaten anything so sour in my life. I poured half a bottle of white vinegar into it and it was so acid. I couldn't bear it. In line with the principle of not wasting, I added two bowls of white soup and turned it into soup powder. After swallowing, the taste is really hard to describe. I asked why it was so sour, and they explained that the powder was sour and spicy. What I asked was not why it was sour, but why it was so sour. I actually have a strong taste, and I love hot and sour rice noodles and hot and sour soup, but I can’t stand the sourness of this half-bottle of vinegar. I definitely give it a bad review! The price is expensive, the quantity is small, the taste is poor, and the service...is average at first, but when there is a problem, I don't know how to solve it immediately and the rambling explanations can only be bad! ! ! Everyone, avoid this place
I recently had the pleasure of dining here and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. If you're a fan of rice noodles, this place is an absolute must-visit.

5 stars for the five blessing noodle dish ALONE.SO GOODThe rice noodles are so silky and easy to eat.The dish is a texture and flavor explosion. The 'five blessings' refer to the meat toppings: beef brisket, golden crispy pork, braised beef, BBQ pork, beef tripe. It came with peanuts as well which added a nice savory, nutty crunch in contrast to the soft silky noodle and tender meats. The crispy pork was S GOOD. I thought the braised beef & bbq pork was just so-so on its own, but it went well with everything else.We also just got the regular beef rice noodle soup. The soup is a clear broth and it was really good. No idea what was in it.We added a beef layou noodle at the end - I didn't have any, but my husband said the broth was too sour for his liking, maybe more Northern Chinese flavors.Would return just for the first two dishes. I wish they had better descriptions in their menu b/c they have so many diff rice noodles but I didn't quite get what was what.Service is expected of a Chinese restaurant (just wave them down if you need them) and they have self serve water in the front.

Authentic Chinese Guilin Rice Noodles, don’t miss it if you are in
Been meaning to write a review, but just getting around to it now! I was here for lunch a couple of months ago and it was good, so I wanted to be sure to give them credit for the tasty food! My dining companion had been here before, but it was my first time, so I more or less let her do the ordering. She ordered quite a few things for just the two of us, so we had some leftovers when we were done. We shared the Spicy Snails Rice Noodle Soup (with flat noodles), the chicken feet, pan-fried turnip cake, shrimp and bamboo shoots dumplings, and the Singapore fried rice noodles. Everything was very tasty and came out piping hot. This is definitely a no-frills kind of place where you order at the counter and they bring the food out. Water is self serve as well. Good place for a quick casual lunch, but if you want to sit and chat, they don't seem to be bothered by that; I guess maybe I wouldn't do that if they were busy, but there was only one other table occupied when we were there. Metered street parking, but it was pretty easy on a weekday afternoon.

This one is much better than the Milpitas one, cleaner and the food is less greasy.
