I don't know if their brother and sisters, husband and wife or best friends, but whatever their relationship is, they work in perfect harmony as they keep their small sushi restaurant Humming with some excellent service and quality offerings. They both move like cats zipping through the small restaurant and sliceing and dicing the fish while playing old school torch songs and classical music which works perfect for the dark well maintained environment. Nothing fancy but a fair price for good sushi and other items to complete your meal.

Food - 4/5 Service - 4/5…read moreAmbiance - 4/5 Overall - 4/5 Within this busy shopping center lies this small Malaysian restaurant. Parking here will forever and always be terrible, but besides that, this place was almost entirely empty, especially for a weekend lunch (we did come almost right at opening time, but there were only like a few other customers by the time we finished). I think the main issue with this restaurant is the menu. With a wide variety of options with different cuisines, I felt that the quality of dishes was lower than I wanted. That aside, I absolutely loved the roti canai, with it being almost perfectly crispy, buttery, and tasty. The fried rice was really flavorful with the salted fish, almost verging on too strong. The curry noodle soup we got was not very strong and was a little bit disappointing. The beef tripe was so incredibly tasty, though the spice was a little bit much for my family. The beef dry hot pot was nice, though I only really liked the beef and not much else on it (some of it was bitter, other parts were just too salty). I don't think this place is terrible. We did come as one of, if not the first, customers in the restaurant, so everything was made fresh and was hot as we ate it. I just think was so much competition surrounding it in this busy shopping center, I don't think it accomplishes enough to be a go-to place for my family.

We saw this place on social media and decided to visit for Mother's Day…read more First things first - parking lot was insane. So come early or you might circle the lot for awhile. We were seated immediately but our server was giving us attitude the entire time. He would constantly check on the other tables but never us. We had to flag down the other server whenever we needed something. Food wise, everything was just okay. The best thing was probably the roti canai and the stir fried flat noodles with beef. The green beans were flavorless, the sizzling pepper chicken was not spicy (we requested spicy) and no pepper, and the beef rendang was really oily.

Service was good, our waiter answered our questions and was good with taking our, somewhat extensive, order. Food came out a bit too quickly in my opinion so we weren't really able to eat things right off the grill some times but it didn't seem to negatively effect the flavor or texture. I really enjoyed all the skewers and dishes we got with the skewered king oyster mushroom and chinese cabbage (napa) being particular stand outs. The dish I was most disappointed by was probably the enoki vermicelli tray, it still tasted good but it just wasn't much of a stand out and I've had some that were really good. This was a fun spot that allowed us to try a bunch of different dishes. I'd highly recommend for folks wanting something a little different from the typical kbbq that took over the Asian bbq scene. I'm looking forward to a return and getting some more skewers!

I had a jellyfish salad obsession for a bit because of this restaurant. They also sell snail, which tastes delicious to me. Frog legs and grilled squid as well. I also really enjoy listening to the lyrical Chinese music playing on the TVs while I wait for my order. I haven't had a problem with service, for it's pretty quick or at a reasonable pace for me! I'd say the only downside is sometimes* there is leaky packaging.

I've been visiting here for decades as a solid cheap eats casual spot. The counter service is quick, and the food is tasty. I really enjoy the katsuson here. The pork cutlet is nice and juicy. The handrolls and rolls are super popular as well as the lunch bentos. Of course the free miso soup and sweet red bean soup are the perfect beginning and end to any meal. Prices here are very affordable, and there's always a decent sized crowd. This is probably the best casual sushi option in Chinatown.

One of my favorite perks is the self-serve miso soup--unlimited refills! They also have a self-serve station for water, spoons, and chopsticks, which makes everything quick and easy. Don't skip the complimentary red bean dessert either--it's so good. The prices are very reasonable. Whether you're ordering sushi or entrées, you can easily get several dishes for under $40 for two people. The eel sushi is AMAZING. We also love the tonkatsu, udon, chirashi, and sushi rolls. Honestly, we've tried so many things on the menu, and everything has been consistently delicious. My husband and I come here at least once a week, which says a lot. The food is great, the prices are affordable, the service is friendly, and parking is super easy thanks to the huge parking lot. Definitely one of our favorite spots!

The ramen - the Shoyu ramen was flavorful but it was not hot when we got it . Like at all . It may have been sitting . They move pretty fast ... a little too fast so it concerned me a bit as far as quality of the food . Especially the sushi . Came out fast! I ordered extra noodle because I assumed it would not be enough . It was enough noodle but not enough broth . We finish the broth before noodle . They saw I didn't use the noodle and I was still charged so I just took it to go . The sushi was 5/10 . Wasn't really fresh . But still edible ! I love ramen but I'm sad that this was not great . I really tried to enjoy it . Now my son said he loved it . Ambiance is quiet , very quiet. Not lot of customers but very small and intimate . Waiter wasn't the nicest . I'm not sure why but good job on flavor ! Everything else wasn't great as far as quality ( cool soup not hot , freshness)

Our food came out without much of a wait. We ordered the Tonkotsu ramen, Chicken Karaage Curry, and veggie spring rolls. The ramen was superb and reminded me of my travels in Japan.

The staff were welcoming, attentive and provided great service throughout lunch. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the ramen and the friendly service!

Compared to the plentiful other ramen shops in town, there's a lot of competition. The broth of the Spicy Miso ramen, tonkatsu ramen, and braised beef brisket ramen had a very lackluster taste. Not very rich in flavor, not very spicy at all for the spicy miso. Leaving our group in a solid 2.5, 3/5 rating. For the price you can get a order of takoyaki, gyoza, karaage for about $~4.50 more which is a abundant amount of food that'll leave you filled. I personally got a bit sick of the taste and couldn't finish it Service was great, very friendly server. For a saturday evening it looked like there was only 1 server managing the shop. During our time there, there were only 2 other tables.

Honestly, no regrets--especially after learning their promotion gave us three free drinks. We ordered 2 HK Style Lemon Teas and 1 HK Style Milk Tea alongside: * Sautéed Beef Noodle * Crab King Shui Mai * Chicken Claw with Black Bean Sauce * Steamed Shrimp Dumpling * Steamed Rice Noodle with Fried Bread * Beef Rice Soup (Congee) HK Style Lemon Tea - Refreshing and pleasant. Not exceptionally memorable, but I'm glad it didn't taste bland or diluted like some versions tend to. A dependable classic. HK Style Milk Tea - Definitely tasted like it was made with condensed or evaporated milk--I recognize that flavor anywhere. Rich, creamy, and honestly very satisfying. I genuinely couldn't decide which drink I liked more between this and the lemon tea at first--but by the end of the meal, this absolutely won me over. Somehow, it reminded me of cà phê sữa đá (Vietnamese coffee), but without the caffeine jitters. Smooth, comforting, and dangerously easy to drink. Beef Rice Soup (Congee) - Scorching hot. Like accidentally-burned-my-tongue hot. Once I recovered from my poor decision-making, I enjoyed how traditional it tasted. Very Chinese/Vietnamese comfort-food energy: simple, warm, and intentionally mild so it pairs beautifully with stronger-flavored dishes. Steamed Rice Noodle with Fried Bread - Very clean flavor profile with a nice structure that held together well. The fried bread maintained a satisfying crispness inside. My mom especially loved this one, and I found myself pairing bites of it with the congee. Chicken Claw with Black Bean Sauce - Oh yeah, this hit the spot for my Asian bloodline. A very classic flavor and exactly what I was craving once it hit the table. Compared to Vietnamese chicken feet, this leaned more into that signature Chinese steamed softness rather than chewiness. My brother actually preferred this style because it's easier to eat around the bone. One thing I noticed, though, was that the flavor became salty pretty quickly if eaten back-to-back. Thankfully, the congee balanced things out perfectly. Steamed Shrimp Dumpling - A forever fan favorite. Perfectly steamed, moist, and delicious. My only tiny critique was that the wrapper had a slightly grainier texture than I expected, though I'm unsure what caused that. Sautéed Beef Noodle - Flavor-wise? Delicious. Health-wise? Probably best not to ask questions. It leaned pretty greasy--the kind that lingers on your lips like McDonald's, where you know it's probably not great for you but somehow still tastes ridiculously good. Hahaha. Crab King Shui Mai - I actually really enjoyed this one. It tasted slightly pork-forward (maybe a mix?), though admittedly I'm not fully versed in the art of shui mai. Regardless, the meat was incredibly tender with a perfect amount of fat that made each bite feel rich and satisfying. The atmosphere here was very peaceful, which honestly made for a relaxing meal. Since this was a grand opening, everything felt impressively clean and well-kept. Service was professional, and I appreciated our waitress's attentiveness. It's also self-service for water and utensils, which keeps things easy. Portion sizes were generous overall, making this feel like a satisfying family meal.
