Reviews
- thriving_chrysanthemumBrought my kid here for dinner and we both went for the beef noodles — the noodles had that perfect chewy bite and the broth was super rich and flavorful. My kid absolutely demolished the bowl, couldn't get enough. The place was really clean and tidy, felt totally safe letting him sit anywhere. They also gave us some red date tea on the house, which was naturally sweet and really tasty — he finished his cup and immediately asked for another. Portions are generous too, and you can even get noodles refilled, which is a huge plus for the price. Overall a really comfortable experience, we'll definitely be back.
