overrated or maybe food quality had gone down....whoever said this place was good....I don't know
The place is located down the steps but look for the signs on top and you'll see.
The entrance is kinda like crap with the ladies making the buns on the right and junk on the left. There are settings but the place pretty much look like a grimmcky Chinatown restaurant.
I took my table for one and the server handed me the menu with a notepad. Confused since she didn't say anything and I was going to order in canto anyways, I still looked at the menu. She didn't even bother coming to get my order until 10 minutes when I just handed her my paper with the number of the menu choices that I want.
I ordered the Dan Dan noodles and the steam buns. As I waited,I'm looking around and I literally felt dirtier. The condiments looked old and uncovered. The plates were stained and I saw a guy get some soy bean milk from what looks like the ground.
My noodles came and it did look delicious! After mixing it all in and had my bite, it was good but not as good as it looked. The noodles were undercooked but fresh, so it was doughy. Some of the toppings were overcooked so it was like mushy. It needed some more vinegar or something.
The buns though....I have to say...THE MOST SOUP I ever had in any buns!! It was overflowing! And the soup was delicious but everything else was okay.
For 2 items, my total was 15.86...which is one of the more expensive meals I had out there.
For the price and taste...I'm not coming back..there's way better options.
