So mad I didn't try this place out sooner! I was only able to come here just once right before I moved back to Nevada. I lived close to this restaurant and passed it several times a week and always told myself that I needed to check it out.
This place is located on W. Thunderbird road and 19th in a small shopping center. The shopping center always seems kind of sketchy even though it's on a major road. There are always people just hanging out and look as though they want to rob you!! Probably part of the reason I was reluctant to come here alone.
Outside of that, the restaurant itself is large inside, but the kitchen area can be easily seen from the seating area as the wall dividing the dining area and the kitchen is a short wall maybe 4 feet tall and it goes the whole length of the place on the right side.
As I entered there was only one other table occupied, so I wasn't sure if this was a good place to come to eat or not. I expected many more people here during lunchtime. Anyways the one older lady working called out for me to seat myself where ever I wanted. After I chose a table close to the entrance, the lady brought me a menu and a glass of water. Their menu is large with lots to choose from. I decided on the Spring rolls with the peanut sauce and Soft egg noodles with shrimp.
As I waited around for my food to come out, several other people came in. One for takeout and the other dined in. I'm still thinking to myself "why isn't this place busier?". My Spring rolls came out first within a few minutes. I'm pretty sure they were frozen and microwaved, but they still were surprisingly tasty. I wasn't a fan of the sauce though. My noodles came out shortly after that and the serving size was huge!! It could easily be shared between two people. The veggies and shrimp were well cooked and seasoned. They weren't overcooked and the veggies still had a crispy bite to them. I only ate a portion of it and had to take the rest home.
The lady came around often to her few customers and filled up drinks and to take away dirty dishes. She brought checks out quickly and gladly gave people to-go boxes/bags for their food.
Even though the look of the place isn't all that inviting to me, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. If I'm ever in the area again I'll definitely stop by again.
