Best noodle and rice restaurant I’ve ever been to, fresh food, top service and care , i wouldn’t believe it if u said they added chemicals to make it taste good, it’s genuinely delicious and addictive to your stomach. Nothing compares with their noodles and rice.
Kind staffs, refill ur water and napkins frequently. Never stopped coming back.

Pretty decent chinese noodle shop.
The noodles were bouncy with good texture but also soaked up decent amount of broth which is good. The broth was above average. Can’t wait to try more of their dishes.

Perfect little noodle house! My son and I both had A2-braised beef with offal noodle soup ($15.99). He has been previously on his own and had A1-braised beef noodle soup. The portion was huge (the size of a large pho) and there was plenty of meat. The beef melts in your mouth and the tripe is so tender and not chewy. We had pork dumplings (pork was juicy, not dry) and spring rolls too. It is across from Loblaws so you can grab groceries first to park for free and then go eat. The menu is easy to read and indicates possible food allergens/restrictions. You can watch the chef cooking and the server was friendly and efficient.

I ordered Braised Beef Offal Noodles, staff happily accommodated a special request for an additional meat. The service was very good. The portion size was large, and the broth was intense and comforting. The noodles excellently balanced flavour, texture, and aroma, and just the right amount came in the bowl. If you are a noodle soup lover, I highly recommend it.

Tried the deep fried dumplings and the braised beef noodle soup I heard so much about. The flavour of the soup was really nice and the noodles were nice and thick. Everything was excellent and proteins were nice. Nice little hole in the wall type of place run by one man it seems.
