| - I didn't really wasn't expecting much, but man are these great noodles. I'm only stopping by Las Vegas for a few nights and this was within walking distance of my AirBnB.
Service: pretty standard imo. The 3 waiters I've seen work here are attentive and friendly. Water refills aren't an issue and they answered my questions with ease. Food comes super quick too, speaking of which....
Food: I can't give this more stars. I don't know what it is, but I haven't had noodles as good as these in a long time. I hope I'm not hyping it up too much, but I REALLY enjoyed both bowls. I've gotten both the pork belly noodle soup and the shang beef noodle soup. Both were hand pulled noodles. The broths are absolutely delicious. It's super rich with flavor but isn't overpowering, salty or heavy. The shang beef noodle soup broth is a tad on the spicy side, but it's very manageable (plus they have chili sauce on the side if you want). The toppings that come standard are 2-3 cuts of bok choy and a small heap of spring onions. There's options to add extra toppings ($2.50, which is whatever the meat is), bean sprouts, extra noodles, extra broth, etc. The pork belly meat was pretty tender, but I think I enjoyed the shang beef so much more. It feels like it was braised for a long time; even the cuts of beef that had some sinew/connective tissue is still tender enough to easily bite through.
Honestly, I love this place. For under $10 a noodle bowl, I find it hard to beat with that price point. I seriously wish this place would move to San Diego. Or at the very least, if I ever come back to Vegas, I'm definitely eating here again.
