    Fatty Beef Soup with Noodles
    Deborah O.

    I'm confused as to why this place got such a low rating. I almost didn't go but I'm glad I did. I loved my food, talk about flavor! I got the Fatty Beef Soup last night and refrigerated it and had it today and it was still perfect! The lady at the front desk was able to communicate with me clearly and my order was her recommendation, I wanted pork belly but she said fatty beef was her favorite, I added eggs and chicken to it so I could have more protein and eat less of the noodles and I had my personalized meal. I'll be back next time I'm in town to try something else. This might be the best thing I ate on this trip.

    This place has amazing authentic real Ramen. It's so flavorful shop full of seaweed and beef and mushrooms bamboo. I got the stirfry noodles with shrimp as well it was really good except for it came with a lot of potatoes in it, I've never really had potatoes and my Japanese food before and I don't eat very much potatoes but the Ramen was amazing.

    Shrimp with Pan Fried Udon Noodle

    super confused by the low ratings because the food was SO good! Noodles were soft and delicious, pork belly was tender and super flavorful highly recommend, can't wait to try more menu items!

    We got the fried noodle dish, dumpling noodle soup and shumai - all absolutely delicious!! The restaurant is taking good precautions to keep themselves and others safe during this pandemic and their staff is very friendly and helpful! They gave us some great suggestions on what to try since we had never been there before. We look forward to going back again!

    "Chinese Donut"

    This was supposed to be their "Chinese donut" I understand if they ran out. They could've simply cancel the order and let me know. Instead they gave fried/oily red bean buns doused in sugar. It was also less than the specified original quantity of 10. I'm extremely disappointed especially waiting an hour.

    Hand stretched noodles! Need I say more? Actually I have to or Yelp turns your review into a tip. I visit Blacksburg a few times each year and I'm a variety guy so this trip I searched for some new eateries and found No. 1. It's a great find the menu is very well executed and the portion sized was immense all while keeping the price low. This is a seat yourself order at the counter place the lady was helpful but young and inexperienced so her description of the dishes was inaccurate. I enjoyed my pan fried beef noodles non the less however I didn't eat most of the weirdly jerky like beef disc thingys. I also orders an appetizer which cane a few minutes after my entree. You see you order at the counter and they call your number given on your receipt so you can run up and grab it. They also serve everything in take out foam boxes. This is a turn off but a clever move because you are going to need a takeout box anyway. Overall the food was good (except the beef) the place is kind of cute, definitely roomy, and costs were low.

    I had heard some good reviews about this place when it first opened so I definitely had to drop by and try it. Sadly to say I was pretty disappointed in how things ended up. First off, theres no service here, which is fine but I really couldn't tell by just walking through the door so that should be more explicit. Essentially the process is grabbing a menu at the front, ordering and then waiting for them to call your number. If you choose to eat in, then you just seat yourself, and you throw the away what's left and the box in the designated trash can. I ordered the soup dumplings and beef noodles to go. The soup dumplings were okay. The beef noodles had almost no flavor to it and the beef was extremely chewy. I also thought it was little pricey for how it ended up tasting. Theres also a language barrier with the cashier I had, which is not a problem for me however the owner had come out and gotten slightly aggressive and rude with me for not being able to understand everything the cashier was saying. I don't blame the cashier at all and was doing my best to understand, but the owner could've been more polite about it as opposed to being rude towards the customer. Maybe I just had a bad experience overall. I like to give places a second chance so I will be coming back and then updating my review if it goes a lot better. So as of right now, "service" was pretty poor and the food was not that good at all, pretty so-so in my opinion.

    Omg yas! Finally Blacksburg has some proper hand pulled noodles! This is so good! They have dim sum as well and some amazing rice dishes like authentic pork belly braised rice! I love their noodle soup and I also love their pan fried noodles. It's not the healthiest place in the world but when you need some authentic Chinese omg yas go here. Their noodles are so good! And they have cute piggy dim sum buns for your Instagram pictures :)

It was in the offing seemingly forever and they're still working the kinks out, with some of the noodles being unavailable when I checked, as well as their tea. By and large, I have not seen Asian cuisines in the fast casual world; Chipotle tried to get a spinoff called Shophouse going but it never really took off. The poke bowl places are the only ones I can think of that have really succeeded in this niche. Junzi promises some legitimately Chinese flavors, and it did deliver. The knife cut springy wheat noodles were thankfully back in stock when I decided to order, and they have a delightful texture. To fill out a bowl, a few vegetable options are available, and two different types of tofu are among the proteins. I found the griddled tofu mouthwatering and it did have a nicely crisped edge. The suite of other options was not huge but did include some nice things like Mandarin oranges and bok choy. I got a salad and a noodle bowl, and having skipped breakfast, was able to scarf down both bowls. The salad doesn't make a meal by itself is what I'm saying. I see some room for improvement in the menu, but when I've looked for literally anything Chinese and vegetarian-friendly in Southwest Virginia, I have not found much worth my time. The sauces and ingredients here delivered the taste I was hoping for.

We stopped in Blacksburg for an overnight stay and I was desperate for something to eat that wasn't from a bag at that point of the evening. If you know me, you know I'm always in the mood for Chinese food and if it's Sichuan, I'm at absurd levels of contentment. Spicity is a swell little spot in a strip mall and has plenty of seating. With it being right after New Years and at the end of winter break, it was very quiet and blissfully empty (I'd had enough of holiday crowds), as was literally every other restaurant we passed in town. It's spacious, has plenty of seating and has a pleasant atmosphere, if a little bright for my liking. Not that I cared because dry pot is on the menu! I started with a tofu ribbon app that is absolutely delicious (not spicy to me, but I think it had a little chili oil). And the cabbage hot pot, which I ordered extra spicy and they delivered! The bits of tofu skin made it even better. While I wasn't a huge fan of it being overwhelmed by bell peppers, I feel like it's one of those things I'd be able to adjust if I came back (perhaps next year?) They get major bonus points for being open late, too. Looks like delivery is until 9 but the restaurant is open til 11 on Fri/Sat, 10 on Sundays and 10:30 all other nights. Driving through so many small college towns, I'm seeing so many places that are only open until 8:30 or 9.

Very reasonably priced for the portions and the quality and they have great lunch deals on weekdays.

The restaurant also doubles as a wine shop. A couple of us had beef cannelloni and one had a sausage and pasta dish, along with a calamari starter and Caesar salads. Calamari was hot fresh and very tender, with a good dipping sauce. Salads were crisp and tangy, with the addition of delicious bread. The baked Cannelloni was superb with a ton of flavor and served piping hot. Tasted like some real love went into it; same with the pasta/sausage dish. Large portions and prices were reasonable were quite reasonable. Finished with some light and airy chocolate mousse. Overall, outstanding service and food, especially when considering the limited options for finer dining in Blacksburg. Only drawback IMO is the quality of the food and service is miles above the ambiance and decor. Could still be rustic, but with some interior color and server dress coordination, would make for a classier dining experience.
