Ordered the beef noodle with tendons.There was no tendon in my bowl. Today is also a very slow day, which wouldn't justify their lapse of focus on trying to get the orders right.The food isn't as good as the last time I came.The soup was not hot enough to where you would like a noodle soup to be. It was a rather cool-temperature soup.Disappointing.

I am disappointed to experience the quality decline at this restaurant where we dined in person. With only one other customer, we waited a long time for our food. The staff was busy working on take out orders.We asked a few times about the status of the order. If we didn't ask, we would probably have waited even longer.

I miss the old menu, specifically the hot and sour soup with diced potatoes and carrot.

There was a very annoying Birthday song playing on repeat. We left the cafe and don’t finish the food

It would’ve been a half decent place if they weren’t playing a techno version of “Happy Birthday to you” on repeat for the entire 25 minutes we were in there. I understand that perhaps they’re trying to encourage customers to leave as they’re closing but torturing your paying customers to achieve that is absolutely unacceptable!Why did you take our orders if you were closing then?

Slightly above average noodles shop specializes in Chinese style red braised beef noodles.Order: Beef & Tendon w/ Wide Noodles + added broccoli, Cucumber salad, Herbal Tea.+ Stunning art on the wall.+ Nice chewy wide noodles. Tendon was cooked well, tender but not falling apart.+ Cucumber was crunchy and refreshing; chili oil was good too.* Mostly self serving: you sit yourself by a table, order and checkout on your phone and fill yourself water from the jug. They did bring my food to me.* It was empty at 11am on a Saturday.- The red braised beef stew has the *exact* flavor of the classic Kang Shi Fu (Master Kang) brand instant noodles. Really threw me off guard.

Entered and placed order and paid online via their QR code and Toast App. Waited 30 minutes and no food. Finally, a person came and asked what our order is. We said we had already ordered and they told us that their internet was down. So they never received their order. Not sure if this is an internet issue or a Toast issue, but it ruined the experience. Staff should have told us upfront that their internet is down. I’ve had issues with ordering via the Toast app at another branch before. Might skip this chain until they fix or scuttle the Toast order system.

Amazing food!! ALL the flavors you are seeking (check out the menu) without the oil and the sodium. Just pure flavor!! But the noodles...let's just say you will always remember the first time you tasted them!!

Noodles is a lot not like at some ramen place

Despite ordering a no spicy soup, i still got a spicy soup. This is the typical hipster restaurant but for a variety of noodle dishes. Its hit and miss. If you have no where else to eat, its fine, otherwise go somewhere else.

Noodles were decent but everything else was completely unseasoned. Fried tofu was cold and watery. Spicy garlic dish just had a bunch on chili powder dumped on it but no additional seasoning. Pretty disappointing.
