I finally decided to step inside after 4 years of walking past and I’m seriously regretting not trying this spot sooner!! It literally has the best noodles in the area. I got the Beef Rice Noodle Soup (A1) and it was absolutely delicious. The service was so quick it was ready in like 3 minutes. And the prices are so reasonable! It’s $12.99 plus tax which came out to $14.14. It’s a super laid back & casual spot but there’s plenty of seating, so it’s perfect if you’re there solo and want to eat alone or with a group. The vibes are great. I’m still thinking about how good my noodles were and I cannot wait to go back!!!

Really good flavor! I tried both the beef rice noodles and the chicken rice noodles — both were delicious, and the scallion pancakes were a great addition. The service was friendly and efficient, and I honestly don’t understand why some people complain. The place has a low-key, relaxed vibe and prices are very reasonable. Definitely recommend if you’re in the mood for tasty Chinese noodles without the fuss.

crazy good noodles. if you want authentic chinese noodles, this place is for you. the service is very straight forward, atmosphere is no frills. if you simply want good, spicy food, that is priced extremely well especially for being so close to grand central, come here. i haven't done take out and always dine in. the chili paste they have is amazing and i love to add it to the chili sauce dumplings and the dry beef noodles. i will continue to come back.
