    This small hole-in-the-wall serves your homemade Taiwanese dishes. The cold side dishes were good, but in all honesty some were not the best I've had. They make their side dishes slightly different from what I am used to. Their beef noodle was good with tender meat, but note that their version is light and more on the bland side. Perhaps it was because we ordered non-spicy? It was refreshing nonetheless. Their pork belly rice bowl was delicious! The flavor was good and they gave generous portions.

    This was our first visit here, and we arrived in a fairly small parking lot, though it did have a few open spaces. The actual restaurant is pretty small, seating only about 22 people. They had a large array of cold side dishes displayed. We ordered the beef and tendon noodle soup, black fungus cold side dish, and the white fungus and date drink. The white fungus and date drink was thick but not too sweet, and my wife really enjoyed it but made sure not to drink too much of it to get full before the main meal came out. The black fungus side dish had a good amount of garlic, and some hints of ginger. I prefer a little more vinegar and chili kick in my black fungus, but my wife really enjoyed them because they were not spicy. The beef and tendon noodle soup was a hit. The beef was super tender, the tendon perfectly cooked and easy to chew, the noodles were bouncy, and the broth super clean. My only grip is that they give maybe a couple more pieces of meat and tendon (there was only one beef and tendon piece each fr my wife and I when splitting the soup). They also brought out a small container of pickled mustard greens which was a great accompaniment to the savory soup. The service was also very good, with two servers working the restaurant. It never really got super busy, so there wasn't much wait when anyone needed something from them. The price was also very reasonable for the quality of the food. Based off our visit I would give them 5 stars for the food, price and service. We will definitely be coming back and trying other dishes.

    Local spot with no frills. Their fried pork chop over rice is solid however felt like very little meat and mostly batter. Service was good and they had a few tables if you wanted to dine in but not a huge space for families.

    Small mom and pop type place. This place came on my radar because I heard that their beef noodle soup was really great and that's why I wanted to make a trip out here. It's located in a small strip mall that feels slightly off the beaten path in the area. I came during the week wanting something soupy, and this place was perfect. They also sell frozen dumplings to go and other dishes that you can take to go or eat there. When I got there, the place wasn't too busy so I was able to sit right away and I was helped by some really sweet people. The noodle soup came out pretty quickly and it was as great as I imagined. I also ended up ordering a package of dumplings to go so I can eat later at home. Definitely recommend this place and these are the type of places I like to support!
