Reviews
- River_4The vibe here is honestly such a hidden gem!! Super cozy and the prices are wild — like, only a few bucks per person and you leave absolutely stuffed. We got the braised pork ribs with wide glass noodles and wow, the portion was huge. The ribs were so tender they were falling right off the bone, and those wide noodles were slippery and soaked up all the flavor. Around the edge of the pot they had these little corn cakes that were crispy on the outside and soft inside — you HAVE to dip them in the broth, omg so good, I was literally licking my fingers. They also do live fish, you pick it and they kill it right there, super fresh and such a good deal for what you get. Perfect for winter, warms you right up. Gonna be coming back for sure! Staff were super busy but really sweet and helpful.
