Reviews
- Logan_25The cold noodles were so chewy and refreshing, with this sweet and tangy broth and these cold apple slices floating in it — honestly one sip and the heat just melted away. The sweet and sour pork was crispy on the outside, super juicy inside, and made that perfect little crunch when you bit in. The tang was spot on too, not too much. Service was really friendly, food came out fast, and they even brought us a hot drink on the house, which was such a nice touch. Place was clean and cozy, great for hanging out with friends. And that buckwheat cold noodle broth was seriously well balanced — not too sour at all, really easy to just keep slurping. Definitely coming back!
