The scallion sauce isn't too strong and no aftertaste lingering like garlic sauce. If you're not allergic to peanuts, definitely add the peanut bits. It adds an extra flavor. 8/10 The woodear salad: very vinegary and crunchy. 9/10 The potato salad:crunchy and the flavor is just right. Mild spicy. 8/10 The original soup noodle: too mild. Barely any flavor. 5/10 The mala pork intestine soup noodle: I got the regular spiciness level and it was actually quite spicy. If you can't tolerate spicy food, try mild or medium first. The pork intestine is bit chewy. Otherwise the flavor is good. 8/10 The seafood tom yum soup noodle: mild tom yum flavor. The soup base is slightly on the sour side. Overall is good. 8/10 Thai style soup noodle: the soup flavor is good. Not too spicy. 9/10 We also tried the brown sugar rice cake: it's just ok. Not crunchy enough. The brown sugar is missing some caramelized flavor. So it is a sweet rice ball. 5/10 I think the temperature inside would be fine if you go during a cool day. When it's a hot day, the restaurant could get very hot even if they turn on both ACs. With just 2 ACs insides, and eating a hot bowl of spicy soup noodle, we were all sweating inside. Though the food is good, I would not return during summertime. It's just too hot to enjoy a good bowl of hot soup noodle.

I asked to sub rice for noodles because one of my kids is a rice pot (can't go without rice) and requested extra sauce, which they kindly provided. The set meals are a fantastic deal; a full size entree, an appetizer and a drink for $19-20. An extra order of noodles is $2.50 and it's really double the amount of noodles that comes in your entree. I also ordered their new dish with has abalone and sea cucumber; this is not part of a set meal. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It has that umami sweetness that comes from a great soup base and the noodles are delicious as usual. The abalone was tender, the sea cucumber had a bite to it. There was fish maw and wood ear in there as well.

It's a small cozy spot right off of 8th Avenue. No wait. We ordered 2 dishes, one spicy and one not spicy. The sauerkraut one - we picked flounder as the fish and it was ok, not smooth at all. Good flavor though. The other one with mushroom, got it with black fish and the meat was very silky. It was very tasty. It comes with rice. And we ordered 2 drinks... both drinks were not very good... we didn't end up finishing it and had to pick up Molly (RIP) post dinner. Would come back to try other versions.

We especially loved all the skewers, they had a good spice, charred really well, and was pretty juicy and fresh. For the spicy dishes such as the spicy crab, chongqing chicken, they were surprisingly not too spicy and very tolerable despite not asking for any adjustments. Highly recommend these two if you want a good quick that's also not too salty. Enjoyed the fried rice even though it was a little wet, the eggplant was also delicious. The only thing I didn't enjoy as much was the pickled veggies with fatty beef - while not too sour like other places, I thought it was on the bland side and not very memorable considering we had a whole table full of other delicious food.

This place is known for their grilled fish dishes, where you pick the type of fish, the flavor and then your add-ons. It is served in a huge tray with burners on the bottom to keep it hot during your meal. We tried the spicy tofu flavor, which was excellent, but they also offer non-spicy flavors. Add-ons include various veggies, mushrooms, and noodles. All of the food was very fresh and flavorful, and we were very happy with the quality. Service: Service was phenomenal. The staff was so attentive and friendly. We brought a cake to cut at the restaurant and the staff were very helpful in getting everything set up and the table cleared before we brought the cake out. Ambiance: The restaurant is not that big, but they can definitely accommodate large and small groups. Seating is spacious and comfortable. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant!

There is no time limit but I definitely would try to be respectful to not hog the seat too long. This is a pay first and choose your seat later.

That's usually a very good sign that the food is up to par, as well as prices being reasonable. I had only a small meal here, but certainly enjoyed what I had. The fish was steamed perfectly, while the cauliflower and lotus stayed perfectly crunchy. The razor clams and snow pea leaves were also delicious. I am certainly not in this neighborhood often, but I would be happy to come back here again to try more of their food if given the opportunity.

The space inside is pretty casual and simple with a constantly bustling crowd, but service is lightning fast and everything comes out bubbling hot in those massive stone pots.

My friend got the tomato sliced beef rice noodles, and while I did not try theirs, it looked just as solid with a tangy tomato base. Portion sizes are huge, so you definitely leave full without spending much. Easy 5 stars for reliable, comforting comfort food.

I wanted to replace a can of coke for a can of Diet Coke. Was denied. What difference would it make to change it out. Both come in a can and both are the same price. Under their drinks, there is crème brûlée. But it's a dessert. Not worth the $5.00. Plus the mislabeling is a huge no no for any business. There are such a thing as crème brûlée drinks so I can see the confusion. Service is meh. No tip is required so maybe that's why it's not pleasant. Very RBF faces through out. Hard pass for me. Wouldn't come back to this place as there are other places that offer better noodles.
