The hot and spicy beef noodle soup is the item you want to go for. Sadly the pan fried dumplings came out raw and not very good. We have been here many times and the quality of the food has dropped, despite the prices going up. I suggest you stick with their noodle soups and not get anything else.

Great steamed dumplings and oxtail noodle soup. The noodle soup can use a bit more meat. The cucumber salad was also great with the meal.

BEST SPICY BEEF NOODLE SOUP. Homemade noodles do not disappoint- rather make you dream about when you will have them again... GAHHhhhh🤤🤤 green onion pancake was excellent as well.
Waiters were nice and patient and food arrived quickly after we ordered. I can't wait to come back again!

The taste of the lamb soup is a bit too salty while the pickel veggie with edamame is a bit blend. The beef nan is very delicious

Great place. The beef wrap is great, I think that’s the thing that everyone gets and it’s lovely. Will feed three people. Honestly lol. The soups are great. Noodles🍜 are great obviously haha. Always a wait though. Such greatness comes with popularity. 😉

Had some delicious vegetable buns and shredded tofu here! It is great that they also give you tea at no extra charge at this location.

I highly recommend the Steamed Mini Pork Buns, which are actually Xiao Long Bao dumplings! Xiao Long Bao are dumplings filled with meat and broth, so when you bite into it, you get a delicious squirt of broth into your mouth. An order (of 10) barely feeds 2 people. 2 orders are perfect for 3 people. I also recommend the beef rolls, which are actually crispy mu-shu pancakes rolled up with think slices of beef and parsley. The pan fried dumplings are just ok. You need to make your own dipping sauce with the vinegar and soy sauce but it's not that great. I recommend asking for a side of Hoisin sauce to go with the dumplings. The Yeung Chow fried rice is amazing! Warning CASH ONLY!

Loved the food. Pretty good prices. Only issue was they only accept cash so we couldn't order as much as we wanted to.

Generally is not bad. The ox tail noodle soup, beef roll are so good. All of the bao - xiao long bao - steamed dumpling are bad .... the restaurant is clean, good service.
