About

Folks generally love the hand-pulled noodles and rich broth, calling it a solid spot for a quick, tasty meal. The texture of the noodles is often spot on, though some diners feel the beef portions have shrunk over time. Cleanliness is a recurring gripe, with some reports of greasy tables and even pest issues. Service is fast but can feel a bit cold or disorganized during the rush. It is a decent bang for the buck, but consistency seems to be slipping lately.

Great noodles but the tables need a better wipe down.

Fast service, perfect for a quick lunch.

Used to be better, now feels a bit stingy with the meat.
