Great food. Friendly family owned. Singapore Rice Stick Noodle dish is their specialty and have to have it often.
Coming here for years and always good
Convenient and good parking. -

Tried the Western style string beans, shredded pork with pickle noodle soup, and beef stew noodle soup. The flavor of meat was a bit light for both noodle soups, but they were both overall good. I'd recommend trying either. My go to are pickle noodle soups, so I do prefer the shredded pork with pickle noodle soup. The one here also comes with bamboo shoots and beansprouts. Such a wonderful combination in a bowl.
What I will be raving about is the string beans. How were they made so scrumptiously? I could not stop eating them. These were one of the most delicious string beans I have ever had. Very fresh string beans, perfectly cooked with the perfect crunch. I don't know what sauce they used, but it was an amazing blend of salty, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor. Words cannot explain how great this dish was. So simple yet done so amazingly.
This meal with a side of hot tea definitely hit the spot.
The owner of the restaurant was so sweet and kind, helping describe in detail the foods we had questions about. She saw that there were three of us and automatically gave us three small plates, bowls, and spoons to share the food. She also gave us a ladle for ease of scooping the noodle soups.
We're from out of town, but if I lived in the area, I would definitely frequent this place. When I can, I will be back for the string beans! Already craving them again. -

This place is ok. I got some take out from here: wonton soup, beef broccoli, and honey walnut prawns and they were so-so. My hubby complained that there was too much mayo in the prawns. I would probably not eat here again but it was an ok place.

Got that tan tan noodle. This place is pretty much meant for to go orders. It's a place tho you can smell the freshness when you walk in. The people are very friendly too. By the way the tan tan noodle is excellent, priced well and very tasty.

Minus 1 star for not having my order right even though it was ordered through the yelp app for pick up. I ordered beef noodles and got chicken pan fried noodles..... A bit disappointing as they cannot even get an order right that was ordered thru an application they use. Honestly, not worth my time to even go back as one of my coworkers picked up all of our orders.
I'm very big on customer service and the quality of food. Can't say I'll be returning back here.... they have another Chinese spot a bit further but I'm willing to drive to get exactly what I ordered and what I want.
