I genuinely hate this place. Not even the workers eat the food here!

I wanted to eat out and be lazy, but ended up regretting not staying home to cook my own noodles and do the dishes. The “hand pulled noodles” are a joke. All clumped up, weird texture, and inconsistent thickness. Broth was bland. I ordered max spicy and tasted nothing. I kept on adding more of the chili oil they had on the table, then tasted a spoonful of just the chili oil itself, and was so disappointed I gave up and went home. I even saw staff eat takeout from another place!

I sincerely hope my experience was an outlier, but it was so bad I can’t see myself ever trying the food here ever again. I hope this isn’t what people think good Chinese noodles are. I almost feel disrespected..

It’s a nice place, friendly service and food comes quick. However, there sadly was a hair in my food. A bit more hygiene and this place would be great!

Make sure you’re hungry because plates are well served and super tasty. I got the fried noodle and it was delish. Staff was super friendly.

Benjamin was a fantastic and very considerate server! His recommendations were very well received. I highly recommend stopping by this oasis, in a food waste land. The prices are reasonable and the tea is delicious.

I've never had the noodles here but the BBQ menu is off the chain. Great lamb skewers. Get the BBQ chives, and don't forget the shredded potatoes. My favorite secret spot in Chinatown.

My absolute favorite hand pulled noodle place now. The braised beef was sooo delicious. I tried the kelp salad which was pretty good also. There was no skimping in quantity and quality. Already thinking of when to go back. Lovely and hard working staff. Very clean. I am so impressed.

Delicious noodles and braised beef was to the point. In general you can call it comfort food. I personally prefer noodles a bit thinner.
