    Not a lot of seating, but the seats were comfy. The food was so yummy, I wished I lived next door. The lady was also so kind. Got three dishes and a coke for under $30!

    The best dumpling and noodle soup in NYC! The broth is rich and very tasty. I order here at least once a week and it never disappoints.

    Cute small shop tucked away in the corner of a street. The restaurant is small maybe barely 500 sq ft but on a cold rainy day when we visited, it felt welcoming and warm. Although there are no fancy decorations nor furniture, we opted to dine in since there weren’t others when we visited. We did see multiple people coming in for take out orders. The ambiance feels like a small coffee shop/food stall with window seating but instead they serve delicious comfort Chinese food. We got: - House special Mama Noodle 10/10 - Basil Chicken Ho Fun 10/10 - Herbal Tea 10/10 Everything was so tasty here. It’s the perfect comfort food. The Mama Noodle is the best version of beef noodle soup I’ve had. I never liked how simple beef noodle soup is but this version is loaded with everything. You not only get the tender & juicy beef cube and homemade noodles - you also get curry fish balls, tofu, hard boiled eggs, topped with plenty of vegetables! It’s so good especially on a cold rainy day. The perfect dish. We wanted to try a dry noodle dish as well and the basil ho fun was delicious! One of the highlight was the house made (ground pork/shallot?) chili sauce that she gave to us along with some black vinegar. Definitely ask for some of that sauces with any order!! It tastes good on everything…. The herbal tea has the right mixture of bitter and sweet. Other places either have it too sweet or too bitter. It’s so satisfying to wash down everything with the herbal tea at the end of the meal. Before you go, don’t forget to grab some frozen house-made dumplings to cook for later. We got 30 pieces and it was only $12. The owners were very generous with the fillings. I never want to buy frozen dumplings from grocery stores anymore! You have these options: - shrimp wonton - pork dumpling - pork chive dumplings The shrimp wonton and the pork chives are my favorite!
