Even though we came mid-afternoon, the restaurant was still packed and we had to wait for a table, but it ended up being completely worth it. We ordered the traditional noodles and the braised beef noodle in both Joye and Two Xi styles so we could try the different noodle types. The broth tasted just as amazing as it smelled, rich, comforting, and super warming. The noodles were perfectly chewy. I basically inhaled my bowl. The only thing that wasn't super memorable was the meat, but honestly the noodles and broth were the stars anyway. It is a little on the pricier side, but the portions are huge and incredibly filling. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving a comforting bowl of noodles.

We always passed by this place on the weekends around noon and it's always PACKED with people. So…read morewhat better way to beat the crowd than to barge in as soon as they open There are a couple of seats available inside with lots of patio space outside, but if you're the type that prefers dining in- make sure to avoid rush hours! The noods were definitely hand-pulled since across the tables, there's an open kitchen area where you can see chefs making them fresh! The thickness of the noods we got were three xi (not too thin but also not too thick!). The noodles itself were pretty good- not overly chewy but not too soft either. Has that good well balanced texture. But usually the best part of any noodles is its broth. The broth was definitely not bad by any means, in fact it was pretty good- but was it memorable? Idk.. this is a good place to try a few times but this wouldn't be my go-to nood spot in Ottawa. Also bear in kind that the portions for these bowls are fixed and it's pretty big! We were a group of 4 and 2 was WAY more than enough for us- we couldn't finish it.

You order at the counter and they bring you the food at the table. The wontons are piping hot. Vinegar, sriracha, soy sauce and hot oil is on each table for self serve. The decor is the same minimalist one as when it opened. They seem to have opened up the back room. If this keeps the price down, it's fine with me.

We ordered the beef rendang , the mixed satay , the five star chicken , the Bali beef , the chili jumbo shrimp , the spring roll , platters of traditional rice , couple of fish dishes. We did not order any noodle dishes although reviews say theyare good Quickly to the pros and cons Pros 1. The tassste : of course my fav was jumbo chili shirmp , with a sweet tangy taste and spice tastes amazing with the rice ; if you are ordering it take it with the white rice and not traditional . The traditional is basmati fried and white is boiled rice Shortly behind that comes beef Bali sautéed with onions . The whole corianders fried wit this dish just hit the right notes and the onions were sweet enough , the sauce was great , the beef rendang was a little too spicy for 3 stars and I won't say that the five star chicken is a must fry , but it's dilute sauce so it goes pretty well with rice 2. The consistency / all dishes were consistently great The not so special ones are as follows imho The five star chicken , the snicker pie and the shaved ice dessert 3. The service : quick and lot of knowledge will be shared if you ask the right questions , they don't push sell , the lady who served was very gracious and kind 4. Complimentary shrimpy fryums 4. Parking : ample space around the building .

Prices are a tad higher than other places but the portion sizes are generous to match, especially the meat. I had the #47 Hủ tiếu thập Cẩm -- aka Chicken broth rice noodle soup with everything: Satay Shrimp, Shrimp Cake, BBQ Pork, Tofu, and Ground Pork. I love the fried shrimp cakes so I often order this kind of soup when it's available. It was perfect and I can't wait to go back! My greedy eyes always want to order the Large but this Medium was perfect and the most soup I could possible fit into my belly. Service and ambiance are both good. Booths are a little cramped so your feet will interfere, and there are some mildly obnoxious flashing festive light strings. But it's easy to overlook those hiccups because the food is spot on. I can also recommend the rice dishes from previous visits!
