After a failed first attempt to land a table, the second attempt was not much better. I thought of calling to make a reservations but they outsmarted me and told me I needed to be there first to be part of the queue.
Place is extremely small with only 14 seats. 4 of the seats were along the wall while the other 10 at tables on the other side. Many people waiting piled in or spilled outside. Having failed twice to eat at the restaurant, I decided to order take-out with my girlfriend.
I ordered the soy beef stew noodle soup while my gf got the noodles with beef, tomatoes, eggs and veggies. We placed our orders and was told that it will take 30 minutes since they needed to make a new batch of noodles from scratch. You can tell the chef was working hard but my fear is that he will be quickly tired after a few months while many may go elsewhere given the wait. However, the ordered was filled in 15 minutes and we were on our way back home to try the food.
The special part of the dishes were the noodles were different. From pictures posted on Yelp, they are not the typical flat noodles, It is fairly long and the pieces were pretty big. They were filling but the noodles were 4 big pieces instead of the "ho fun" noodles that you see elsewhere. The egg tomato dish was nothing special while the beef stew brisket was amazing with tender slices of meat.
I will probably try other dishes but avoid trying to get a table. Take-out again next time.
