Unfortunately after we ordered we saw a rat scurry past above the table there they were making the dumplings. I wasn’t fast enough to snap a photo but it definitely left my girlfriend and I feeling uneasy about eating the food.
I took solace in the fact that the rat wasn’t on the food prep area and decided to eat the food. The dumplings were comparable to other China Town cheap dumplings as they were plentiful but not very flavorful. The noodles with sauce offered a nice rich beef taste and were filling.
Your best bet is to go somewhere more reputable and deeper in China Town. It’s New York and there are rats everywhere, seeing one in a restaurant especially near the cooking area however is worrying.

Boy do the pork dumplings rule here. Loaded with 5spice. Really unique in how strong and deep the flavor is here. Umami bomb like French onion soup sort of.

You really can’t beat these prices, just $4 for noodles with meat sauce! It’s a very humble location, so don’t expect bold or complex flavors, but that simplicity is exactly what makes it so comforting. The noodles are always cooked just right, slightly above al dente, which I personally think works perfectly for this style.
I’ve been ordering it for a while now, and it’s become one of my absolute go-to meals. Personally, it’s delicious. I find myself constantly craving it and it’s perfect for a quick bite.
They also have other delicious options worth trying, like their sesame pancakes and, of course their dumplings, which hit the spot just as well.
