We went here more than 4 times and it has become our go-to place when visiting Chinatown. We didn’t receive intend to write a review for this restaurant but it seems like a group of people were trying to vote down this restaurant, so we decided to do this restaurant some justice. We love the food here, Vietnamese Chinese Style. We have tried many of their noodle soup dishes. Their noodle soup dishes were very tasty and flavorful. They give a variety of noodles options, which is a great thing as different people have different preferences. What I particularly enjoy the most at this restaurant is their country-style Chicken, Duck, and Mixed Beef Tribe. They were authentic and remind me of home. They also put a generous amount of pickled radishes and carrotss in the dishes, which enhanced the taste of the meat. The staff may not be as friendly as you may expect of American Restaurants. But, to be frank, most of the authentic Chinese restaurants in Chinatown would focus on the quality.

Delicious noodles at this place. Traditional style that is hard to find this days. The price is reasonable compare to the great food quality. We have been coming here everytime when we go to NYC Chinatown. This restaurant never disappointed us.

Reasonable price, very homey asian and Vietnamese dishes! Just accept cash. Excellent customer services, reasonable price! I wish they can have small plates of appetizers! Their plates are from $7-$15! Yummy! Highly recommend!

Very cheap place, however, if you’re in New York you have PLENTY of opportunities to go somewhere other than here. Not only was the environment incredibly unwelcoming and unprofessional, the food was tiers below what I had to expected based upon these reviews. I’m not a picky eater, however, the only reasonable solution to satisfaction here was to just get up and leave. I ordered the curry chicken with rice. The curry itself with the rice was nice, about average for what you’d expect from curry, and the potatoes were nice as well, although they had given me the bare minimum of toppings. The chicken on the other hand was food poisoning waiting to happen, completely pink all the way through. It was chewy, and just RAW. I genuinely don’t usually care about if something is poorly cooked or seasoned, but this literally wasn’t cooked! It came out super fast, but I guess I could see why! My mom ordered the mixed noodles I believe, and she described it as flavorless, bland, and unappetizing no matter how many spices or sauces she added to it. It looked like they threw some noodles in there for 2 seconds(also wasn’t completely cooked) and threw miscellaneous intestines in there. Barely spent 10 minutes in there. If you’re visiting Chinatown, just walk past this place.

First off cash only like many places in Chinatown. We ordered the duck and rice and beef noodle soup. The duck was not as flavorful, and the broth that it came with was very light, not much flavor either. I wouldn’t order that dish again. The beef soup broth wasn’t too bad and the flat noodles were good. The amount of beef was good. I would give this place another try but I would order something else.

My favorite canto style noodle spot in Chinatown. No frills and simply delicious. Been going here since I was a kid and have tried many of there noodle soups. Favorite now is the #3 beef flat noodle soup, with beef so soft you can feel invigorated at how little effort it takes to rip the beef pieces to shreds. The roast duck is also a must! Cash only!

Been going to this place and get my seafood noodle soup on the side. But they close during 2020 but now reopen and my first time back, the waiter very friendly and got my food fast. the taste has not change all good stuff that i like.

Excellent no-frills restaurant by Teochew Chinese folks from Vietnam. Highlights are the excellent peppery fish dumplings in soup, and the house special spring rolls. Braised duck and the vietnamese-inflected lemongrass beef over rice were also great
