The duck hot and sour noodles, it's entirely amazing. I can't speak for much of the rest of the menu as whenever I'm there I always get the duck noodles. Staff and ambiance is good.

Amazing healthy comfort food with the tofu dish. The menu looked really small but everything looked and smelled so delicious. The portions were good for a hungry person or too much not to take some home. The seats could have been padded but we sat there for a while.

We dropped in on a whim and thoroughly enjoyed our steamed buns and rice dishes.

They recently changed their menu and the beloved pork belly fried rice is completely different. It used to be kimchi, fried egg, and fresh herbs. Now it’s standard fried rice with veg, scrambled egg, and the pork belly. It was fine, but steps below the original dish. It was $3 less, but I’d rather have to more expensive, better version of the dish. Edit: the rice is back! Can’t wait to get back there.

Pork belly fried rice significantly lower quality after recent menu changes. Used to be 5 stars. EDIT: They brought back the old menu, changed to 5 stars

The food is great, with a big serving that can be shared for two especially the fried rice and noodles.
