Even in Chatswood, most are saturated with MSGs. We were so glad to have found this one in Gordon! Perfect! We just moved to Gordon and saw this place and thought, hey that's new, let's try next time after work and we did today. It was very delicious! Noodles were of decent texture, soup had flavour to it (not just MSG) and veggies are fresh. Had beef brisket noodle soup for $12.50. It's not cheap if you think about other parts of Sydney where you can get cheap noodle soups but in Gordon, that's pretty cheap! Chopped chilli and sauce are readily available at the counter for you to help yourselves and the kitchen is open space so you feel at ease about what you are eating. Good job!!

The freshest ingredients all lovingly chopped for you to see are jiggled together and ready in a steaming jiffy. The jumbo spring rolls are beyond delicious - not in a delicate spring roll way - think fat pastry and gloopy curry sauce. GORGE-ous. The best thing for me about this place though is the Chinese couple who run it; him on the wok, her on the counter. They are just about the sweetest people I've ever met. We've had many a heartfelt conversation over the years, though I confess I have resorted to nods and smiles when I've misheard over the sizzling of the woks and the general hub-bub. She probably thinks I'm a little strange as I smile at her tales of financial woe, which makes her all the more deserving of good fortune. A hard working couple who make simple, delicious food. The sort of people who should win the lottery. Maybe if you read this and are urged to go, they might just feel like they have.

So far, this is by far the BEST RAMEN I've ever had anywhere. I really wish there was a Ryo Noodle near me but I guess I just have to make another trip to Sydney! Haha Their food is delicious, great price, the atmosphere is chill, friendly staff ended up talkin to one of servers who happened to be daughter of the owner.

I had trouble counting my coins but she didn't mind helping me! If you don't like spicy maybe go no chili but it wasn't too hot to me. It is a small, quaint restaurant, and was clean as well.

We hit the beef, pork, prawn and vegetable steamed dumplings and man, I gotta tell ya, pork just steal the day, don't they? I mean I'm as big a prawn fan as the next bloke, but there's just something about pork and the way it's all juicy delicious inside that glutinous little wrapping. It's a happy marriage, one that I want to eat as much of as humanly possible. I'm not an Anzac Parade regular, but this place made The List, that one I keep in my head.

We were still hungry when we finished so we ordered some boiled dumplings. MISTAKE - cause it took already 15 mins. Seriously, how difficult is it to boil some dumplings (assuming the dumplings were pre-made). The food was not bad, but the wait was really annoying. Not sure if I would be back....

This place seats 90 bodies so it can get deliver a great audience for those you like to lap up the on stage limelight. This was my first and only go at karaoke, and a good audience can be kinda dangerous. It's hard to want to exit the stage with such an enthusiastic bunch celebrating your inner rockstar on public display for the first time ever. Clearly, my rendition of My Endless Love (performing both Diana and Lionel) was a hit, so I'm karaoke's new biggest fan and entertaining the idea of becoming a real rock star. Oh, and according to the website, these guys have invested in a brand new karaoke touch screen system with over 20,000 MTV tunes to pick from.
