We stumbled on a gem! The place was packed and it was only 4PM but we didn’t have to wait long. Food was delicious. Had the juicy dumplings and pork buns. Doubled the order to take home! Wish they were close to us.

Simple little place for noodles. I get the beef tomato with rice noodle. It was delicious and hot. Price is very reasonable as well. Food is not over seasoned at all. If you want something that's really salty, this is not for you.

Quaint disaster of service. You feel extremely unwelcome and utterly a bother. Good food, though. Beef chow fun is bomb here and the soup dumplings are great.

Good small plates and lunch box plates. The kung pao chicken and fillet fish box meals are huge and can last you two meals easily. They come with potatoes, cabbage, and an egg! Love this place. Been going here for many years
