Came here on a Tuesday night for dinner. It's a small restaurant with only a couple of tables. Since we arrived after 830 we got seated right away. There was only one wait staff but almost everyone else was done, she only needed to serve us during that time. She was prompt and friendly. We ordered the truffle fried rice and duck confit noodles that everyone talked about as well as the daily special brisket mantou.
The brisket mantou (2 for $10) was flavorful and the meat was super tender. I really enjoyed it except that the sauce made the bottom of the bun soggy.
Next onto the duck noodles ($13) and truffle fried rice ($14) that most yelpers rave about. The duck noodles tbh was a bit of a letdown. First, there was really little tiny pieces of duck meat that could easily gone unnoticeable. Second, the noodles were lump together. Even though house made noodles can be on the soft side, I still think that a decent plate of noodles should not lump together especially given the amount of grease with this dish. I just don't know how I should feel about this dish. It's some strong flavor but it's not strong in duck flavor(?)
The truffle fried rice was pretty good on the other hand. The truffle smells and tastes good and I especially like the sweetened/pickled cherry tomato that adds extra flavor while balancing the heaviness of the truffle oil. Overall it's a decent dish.
I would not necessarily say that I had a very satisfying meal because when you factor in the portion it is a bit pricey and you will leave half full. However I do appreciate that they have an interesting menu that stimulates my taste bud unlike what I usually have on a regular weekend.
