FOOD: 4/5
Ordered to-go here. Flavor was good. Ordered 2 kinds of noodles. Chicken mushroom with hand pulled noodles (chow mein type) & the egg tomato with knife cut noodle (flat). I suggest to just stick to the hand pulled one if u do take out. Because by the time we got back to the hotel (half hr later), the flat one turned into a clump of dough. I could imagine it woulda been more separated & actually looked like noodles if I had eaten it right then & there in a bowl. The hand pulled one stayed separated. Other than that, the flavors were great. I also ordered the beef pancakes, fried pork dumplings & fried beef dumplings. The beef dumplings & beef pancakes were pretty much the same. Just different shapes. I preferred the pancakes though cuz it's more fried due to the shape.
DECOR: 5/5
Clean & modern. Love that we can watch them make prep & cook right there. It's a little too hipster looking for me though.
SERVICE: 4/5
The girl taking the order walked around with her lil tablet. Wasn't like super friendly. She just seemed like a robot. The guy Latin guy with the green eyes making the pulling the noodle was nice about me taping him pulling the noodles. Please just be respectful & ask them if u can tape them. It's so rude when ppl just start video taping or taking pictures without that person's consent.
Prices weren't too bad. I have to admit, when I first found this place on yelp, I wasn't sure I wanted to try it cuz the pictures & name of the restaurant looked & sounded way too hipster ish for me. I thought it was gonna be some fancy schmancy small portion dishes for an arm & a leg. But I decided to try it for the hand made noodles & I'm glad I did. The portions were bigger than I expected for the price they charge. They exceeded my expectations. The only thing that's hipster stuck up ish about this place was the robotic hostess/server. She wasn't rude or anything & answered my questions. She just needs to crack a smile & act a little more personal. This isn't some exclusive rich club or party. Reminded me of those ppl in movies working at some hip exclusive restaurants.
