Yah, I see a lot 4-5 stars for this place, but the staff ruined my experience here.

So we show up here at about 11:50am, and the manager (at least we assume he was) informs us that they'll be having another larger group in there at about 1:30. Ok, we…More »

Very busy joint, but an overrated meal for me.

This place boasts about their handmade noodles. They have many kinds of noodles in which they make in house: dragging noodles, pushing noodles, and cutting noodles just to name a few.

They have a few…More »
