I wouldnt say this is the best but it IS affordable. Their pricing confuses me as I ordered a chicken rice roll big box which says $3.50 on the sign and then I added egg which is $1.00 and corn for $0.75 and the total came out to $6.00 so the math isn’t mathing but apparently a big box is two so if you add additional toppings they gonna charge you for two portions? Still worth it overall with portion size but would be much easier to understand if they have a price for S and a price for L to prevent confusion.
They also use a basic soy sauce so there isn’t much flavor. I go here because its close and affordable, the grand street cart opened up a storefront so competition wise there is not much in the area. Personally I do feel like West Rice Roll King down the block is better ingredients wise and sauce wise but unfortunately they dont open early.
Not the worst but not the best, passable to satisfy the craving! If they offered the typical peanut butter sauce and sweet sauce, it would most definitely elevate things.

Super fresh rice rolls. Fresh shrimp is my favorite, has cilantro.

Silky rice roll noodles! We got one shrimp and another dried shrimp rolls that were delicious and affordable. bring cash, a few people queued up behind us but line moved quickly

A cheap eat that's good.

Amazing beef and pork noodles, made by very friendly ladies in a little street side cart. Definitely understand why there were people lined up to try it! One of our favorites of the food crawl :)

$4.25 for a small container of thick, chewy rice noodle rolls with fresh, perfectly cooked, shrimp and an egg! Breakfast of Champions! No line when I went around 9am and service was fast and efficient. No chitchat but I wasn't there for small talk ? After I recieved my order, I took a few steps back and just dug in! Yum! Great cheap eats in NYC! ?
Wonderful little staple in Chinatown. Portions are generous, and the soy sauce and hot sauce work really well with the incredibly freshly made rice noodles. Definite recommendation if you have somewhere comfy to sit and enjoy (or devour/inhale) your meal!

This food cart in Manhattan Chinatown is a true Cheap Eats of NYC. $1.75 for a beef rice roll is probably one of the best deals in the city, and the portion size you get for that price makes it very worth it.
That being said, while I liked the texture of the rice roll, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the sauce. IMO, the sauce makes the rice roll too salty, and I’ve definitely had better in the city. For $1.75 though, still a good deal for a quick bite.
Note: I waited in line for ~15 minutes on a Saturday morning, the line does move a bit slow

Very cheap but unfortunately also very mediocre. Mushy cheung fun and lacks flavors. Would recommend many of the other nearby spots for cheung fun instead (Joe's Steam Rice Roll, Tonii's, etc).

It’s a cart next to the Hong Kong supermarket so no seating area. Tastes good!
