On a cold winter day, my wife and I wanted some soup. This was our first visit it. It was not what…read morewe expected. It says "100 bowls"; we thought it was "100 different kinds of soup". Still, they probably had ten to 20 different kinds of soup. The majority of the soups are vegetarian. I saw two meat based products: chicken soup and beef stew. Everything is take out. We had thought there would at least be a place to eat soup inside the business. All that said, we plan to return.

This is by far the best Lanzhou noodles in MoCo…read more We've been eating the owners noodles for 5 years since before the first location when he was selling it inside another restaurant. Happy to see his nood soup still killing it and winning awards. Order the #1. Add some chili oil. Try a side or two. That's all you need. I personally like noodles, my kid loves belt style, my wide loves knife cut. They do it all and don't miss on flavor.

We were invited to lunch with a friend who took us to Chopin Noodle House. Interesting concept,…read morebut forget about the piano and the music - the food is fantastic on its own. I got the Scallion Oil Noodles - chewy, hand pulled noodles in a smooth oil dressing. Pair it with the chili oil kimchi for a nice contrasting crunch. My favorite, however, was the Tofu with Century Egg Salad - a small bowl with cubes of soft tofu and quartered century egg and chili oil. Lots of textures and tastes thrown into a tiny little bowl. Be careful - as proof that this place is authentic, their "vegan" vegetable tofu noodle soup is served in beef broth. But once you hammer out the details of the ingredients, the taste is worthwhile. Plenty of others feel the same way - we arrived when they just opened for the day, so we got a seat, but by the time we left, there was a line out the door. If you haven't tried Chopin Noodle House yet, you're missing out!

I absolutely love this place! Everything we order always hits. From the cucumber salad, to the…read morenoodles, to the pancake. Everything is absolutely delicious. But I gotta say, my all time favorite dish is the cucumber salad. OMG I could eat it all day everyday. It is just so perfectly seasoned, spicy, refreshing, ugh I loveeee it. The hand pulled noodles are always so good. We've had the noodle soup which is also so good. Literally everything they make is good And besides Bobs Shanghai, I am certain these are the best xiaolongbao I've had in MOCO! They are BIG, juicy, soupy, meaty and so yummy. I don't like that they always forget to give us the vinegar sauce but we ask for it anyways. Highly recommend!!

The pork buns alone are worth the order…read more Got this delivered via Uber Eats and honestly wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm glad I took the chance. Ordered the beef combo knife slice noodle soup, pork soup dumplings, pork wontons with homemade spicy sauce, and the pan fried pork buns. The pan fried pork buns were the clear MVP here, perfectly crispy on the outside with that satisfying crunch, but soft and fluffy inside. Super filling too, which is always a win in my book. The beef noodle soup was solid comfort food with good portions, and the dumplings hit the spot. Only minor thing - I wished the "spicy sauce" had more kick to it. Could've used some extra heat, but that's me being picky. For the price and portion sizes, this place delivers (pun intended). You're getting a solid amount of food that actually tastes good. Would definitely order again, and those pork buns are going to be a repeat item for sure.

It was our first time here and we had absolutely no idea what to order. We just saw a bunch of people order soup and once they are out, they are out for the day and they cross it out. By the time we got there around noon, two out of the four available soups were gone. A lot of people were ordering to go and the soup looks substantial rather than soupy. The part about the decor is that you see a garage door in the middle of the place. It's quite chilly inside during winter time, but it has its charm. It's a small non descript place with lots of character and the food and coffee is good. This is one of those places where you're not really looking for a fancy place. You just want good food. This is the place. Get there early for the soup that you want.

They have a rotating menu. I shared a MUFFALETA SANDWICH with my sister, and we each ordered a soup, CAULIFLOWER ROSEMARY BISQUE and SAUSAGE & 3 CHEESE MINESTRONE.

Looking forward to returning and their ever changing menu.

Ruta Ukrainian Restaurant…read more What a lovely introduction to Ukrainian food. We began with their appetizers and it was uphill all the way. Not only is their food prepared to delight but each dish was visually appealing that elevated our whole experience. I would recommend arriving for an early dinner and making reservations. There is metered parking on the road or paid parking structures not too far away. The restaurant is cozy with a welcoming atmosphere. Well appointed tables and an important part...comfortable chairs. Splashes of color and decor reminded us of their proud Ukrainian heritage. Service from the staff was well coordinated, friendly and never intrusive. I felt I was being fed a family's long standing recipes of traditional specialties. The condiments, creamed sauces or microgreenery complimented each individual dish. Even a simple dinner roll was elavated by its absorption of garlic oils and a house made spread. We tried the Varenyky dumplings with sauerkraut filling and one with short ribs. The Deruny (potato pancakes) were delicious layered with sour cream and a portion of a tasty mushroom mixture. Some items are marked gluten free or vegetarian. Our main entrees were Banosh with pieces of bacon, goat cheese with a polenta cake, the other Banosh Vegetarian also came with a Ukrainian polenta cake, a Mushroom Mixture and goat cheese. My daughter tried the Chicken Kyiv with mashed potatoes which was also very delicious. This memorable meals was complete with their award winning honey cake, moist layers of cake and creamed filling that is now one of my favorite desserts. Not overly sweet and large enough to share with the 3 of us. My only regret is that they are located in Bethesda, if a store opened in Columbia, I would gladly become a regular. I'll just need to make a special trip here again to try more of their selections. Highly recommended for all age.

The food here is decent--no major complaints on taste--but unfortunately the customer service…read morereally overshadows it and I agree with the other reviews that state rude, unprofessional service. Every interaction feels uncomfortable. They repeatedly push for tips and insist on cash payment in a way that comes across as aggressive rather than informative. On top of that, the tone when ordering is consistently rude, no matter who answers the phone. It feels like you're inconveniencing them just by placing an order. Their loud tone, rushing you to hurry and place an order, only to arrive at a restaurant that isn't even busy to be excused for that behavior. Honestly, the place doesn't ever really seem busy, and I can see why. I want to support local businesses, but it's hard to enjoy or recommend a spot where customers are made to feel unwelcome or pressured. With better service and more respectful communication, this could be a solid place--but as it stands, the experience isn't worth it.

The California roll was the best I've ever had, the spicy tuna roll was delicious, and the volcano roll was incredible - perfectly rolled with the exact correct ratio of different fillings and incredible texture from the tempura shrimp. We ended the meal with a sort of doughnut hole rolled in sesame seeds and filled with a ganache, and as someone who does not like sesame, I ate my entire dessert and was thrilled with the flavor they were able to create with the different components melding together. The service was wonderful, the restaurant was spotless, and I can't wait to go back. Honestly, I wish I had ordered more so I could enjoy my leftovers while I sit here salivating and writing this review. I would post photos, but I ate the food too quickly.
