| - Very good, fresh, chewy noodles.
WAIT: Came on a Saturday night around 6pm and there was no wait. After us, people trickled in and some had to wait but never more than 5 or so minutes.
ATMOSPHERE: The inside is pretty simple with tables located in the front area near the door and then further back. The restaurant can seat a good amount of people and there are booths as well as tables. We sat near the door which was a little annoying since it was freezing outside but when asked to move they said no. The wait staff here is a little frazzled and it's kind of hard to get a hold of them.
FOOD: you order by writing what you want on the piece of paper and then handing it to them. The menu can seem confusing so I would ask questions or look at pictures.
HOUSE RAMEN - (1101) in case you didn't already realize, this is not real Japanese ramen. It's basically hand-pulled noodles that Chinese people eat (similar to Lam Zhou or Tasty hand pulled noodle in NYC). The noodles are thin and very chewy, springy and fresh. I have to say it may be the best noodles I've had with this type of soup. The soup itself is basic beef soup with thin slices of beef (similar to in pho) and veggies.
SLICED NOODLES - I swear I ordered 1209 but when it came out, it was stir fried and not in soup. Some of the labels say in soup so the others probably aren't. I think in the end, they thought I ordered 1210 (the lining of the numbers and their descriptions seem to be a bit off). In the end, I wasn't disappointed. The sliced noodles are more like knife cut, roughly cut, scissor cut noodles that are equally as chewy but more flat and thick. Very good. I got it with veggies so it came with lots of choy, celery and tomatoes. I think if I were to ever come back I would try it with soup but the stir fried was very good.
Overall, definitely recommend if you love noodles.
