We came on a Saturday night and the place was surprisingly empty…read more We ordered the following: Garlic bok choy: 9.5/10 - wouldn't change a thing and even increased the flavor of the mixian Sautéed green bean: 10/10 well worth the price. Crab Rangoon mozerella sticks: 10/10 whoever thought of this is a genius. Highly recommended. Southern soul Bao Bun: 8/10 the bun was a little too thick. Carne asada fríes: 8.5/10 very good just wished the fries were crispier. Asada was well seasoned. Hot stone short rib mixian: 7/10 the broth was lacking body and the meat was unseasoned. Adding in the bok choy increased the flavor. The food is rather good but they lack foot traffic. I think this place needs better outdoor decor to attract the eye. We were looking on purpose and almost passed it. Not having the 'all you can eat lunch' anymore and not having a liquor license puts them at a disadvantage to the other places in the area.

The tunes were cool. I loved the Halloween decor at the bar along with the attentive service. 10/10! I had the drunken noodles with chicken (I tore it down sorry no pics). I selected a spice level of 3 but I felt like I could've taken it up a notch as I love spice! The spice levels are 1-5 and a 6 (that is not on the menu). Our bartender gave us great recommendations and checked on us regularly. The prices are reasonable and we will def return again to try some other menu items.

Spacious interiors and there appeared to be only one person at the host/server stall. We did beat the lunch rush and were the only ones there around maybe 12pm? My bf got the tom kha soup and I glt the laotian chicken box. I love thai or laotian spiced fried chicken so I was excited. Maybe my judgement is biased because I was expecting very heavily seasoned fried chicken with herbs and seasonings but what I got was not really seasoned any differently than any ol regular fried chicken. It was very very crispy but that was about it. I felt a bit disappointed. It was also served with just some unseasoned steamed rice and a pretty typical sweet sour sauce. My bf did enjoy his soup. He had no complaints at all. I would come back to try the pho maybe. The seafood pho looked good. Maybe when the weather isn't 100 degrees.

We chose to dine here after seeing the restaurant's outstanding reviews online and on Facebook…read more With four locations in well-known food markets across the United States, we expected a more upscale dining experience. Unfortunately, the reality did not quite match those expectations. The restaurant is located in a somewhat rundown shopping plaza, and the dining area itself felt small and dated. There were boxes of supplies stored in the main dining room, which detracted from the overall atmosphere. The setup felt more like a typical takeout-oriented Chinese restaurant than a destination dining experience. Even the water station, which was self-service from an office-style water dispenser, felt unusual for a restaurant of this reputation. The restaurant is known for its hand-pulled noodles, which was one of the main reasons we visited. However, based on the overall presentation and environment, the experience did not fully convey the level of craftsmanship we had anticipated. As for the food, my husband ordered the chicken with wide noodles. Unfortunately, the dish was extremely oily, making the noodles difficult to pick up with chopsticks. I ordered the Jajang noodles, which were decent but lacked the depth of flavor I was hoping for. Overall, our visit was disappointing given the restaurant's strong reputation and positive reviews. While the food was acceptable, neither the quality nor the atmosphere met our expectations, and we would not choose to return.

Stopped here for Friday dinner while in town for work…read more Had no idea it was part of the marketplace within the building that has several counters and food/beverage spots.

I do wish I could remove the chicken from my ramen as an option because I find the breast they use too dry and chewy. The flavor of the broth is great and I love the side of spice you can get added to it. The noodles are cooked great and stand up to the ramen broth. It's one of the few quality places I can get non pork broth due to my allergy. The staff is really friendly and I enjoy the drink options. The chicken was nice and crispy. I love the sauce they use to go on the wings. My partner enjoys the shoyu ramen broth. The broths are very clean and have a great asking of flavor. The temperature of the broth is perfect as well. The eggs that are in the ramen are nice and jammy. The mushrooms are great.

We visited on a Tuesday, and since it wasn't very busy, the service was attentive and our food came out quickly. We took advantage of one of their daily specials. the Cumin Beef Stir-Fry was half off ($13). It ended up being my favorite dish. The beef was tender and perfectly seasoned. The Tibetan Diced Lamb also had great flavor with a nice balance of spices. The Sichuan Popcorn Chicken, however, wasn't what I expected. It wasn't the traditional Sichuan-style chicken I was hoping for and leaned more on the sweet side, which personally wasn't my favorite. The Flaming Roasted Lamb Leg had a delicious smoky flavor and came with a fun tableside presentation where it was set on fire. That said, the portion was on the smaller side for the price, and I was a little surprised to find what looked like French fries underneath the lamb. The restaurant has plenty of seating, and street parking was easy to find. They don't have a liquor license yet, so it's currently BYOB. There's a liquor store that's a three minute walk away from the restaurant. They also offer tea for $5 with free refills and soda for $2.50 with free refills. I also appreciated that they offer select dishes at half price on certain days of the week, so it's worth checking their specials before you visit. Overall, the food was flavorful, the atmosphere was comfortable, and the daily specials make this a great value. While not every dish was a hit for me, the cumin beef and Tibetan lamb were excellent.

I ordered delivery from Lao Sze Chuan a few months ago, but finally visited in person this past…read moreSaturday and had a very good meal. Lao Sze Chuan is a new-ish (open since January 2025) Sichuan restaurant that took over the space Busboys and Poets used to occupy. It's a huge space, but they did a great job renovating it, and it feels light and bright and modern - very comfortable. It's huge though - so I hope people know it's there and are ordering takeout/delivery or stopping by a for a meal in person! The service was very friendly and very fast, so it's a great spot for an in-person meal, too! Their menu is as large as the restaurant space, so there's something for everyone! They definitely have a lot of Sichuan dishes, but if you're not up for Sichuan, they have some other dishes that might fit the bill: dim sum (plenty of dumplings and buns), lo mein, fried rice, Peking duck, basil eggplant, Mongolian beef, and more... On Saturday at the restaurant, my husband and I shared a pot of white tea and a few dishes: crystal shrimp dumplings; pork soup dumplings; spicy tofu skin strips (shredded tofu skin tossed with Sichuan-style chili oil, peppercorns, and spices for a bold, numbing and spicy flavor); spicy and sour fish fillets (tender fish fillets simmered in a flavorful broth with pickled mustard greens, garlic, and Sichuan spices); a side of white rice for the fish; and red bean paste pumpkin cakes for dessert. When we ordered delivery in February, we shared: vegetable steamed dumplings; Yu-Shiang Eggplant Roll (tender eggplant braised and rolled in a traditional Sichuan Yu-Shiang sauce, offering a perfect balance of sweet, sour, savory, and spicy notes); crispy salty chicken (bite-sized chicken pieces deep-fried and seasoned with basil); salt & pepper pork chops (crispy fried pork chops tossed with onions and jalapeño peppers for a bold and savory flavor); and a side of white rice). I've enjoyed everything we've eaten (although I wouldn't recommend the crispy dishes for delivery for obvious reasons - I can't resist salt & pepper pork chops sometimes even though I know it doesn't travel the best), and I love how broad the menu is. I can't wait to return to try more of their dishes!

Their menu features ramen, brothless ramen, and other Asian-fusion bowls. Honestly, the food didn't look bad and there seemed to be some gluten free options. However, I only got the boba tea this time around and I was sadly very disappointed. When ordering, there wasn't any option to customize the tea (sugar or ice levels specifically) so when it came out, I was disappointed with the sweetness and the lukewarm temp. I wish there was more ice and less sugar. The boba was also very overcooked and slimy. It didn't have the chewy bounce that boba is supposed to have and it wasn't marinated well either - it didn't taste like brown sugar at all. Just flavorless and mush. I ended up going home and dumping the whole thing over some ice cubes but it still wasn't great. The only upside is that they use dairy-free milk so no need to customize that. But overall, I wouldn't recommend this spot for boba unfortunately.

We'll definitely be going back!

My noodles had a unique texture. They were chewy, almost like rice cakes. I really really enjoyed the texture and keep dreaming about getting another bowl. The steak was also flavored really well.

I like that but there is an option for more sauce. Overall, I really enjoyed the dishes, and the only thing i'd change is more protein and vegetables for next time.
