Parking was a bit of a struggle to find but I'm not going to dock it any stars for that because that really isn't the shops fault, it's street parking and it's a city that's just how it is. The food though? AMAZING, I got the DanDan noodles and my boyfriend got the wonton soup and he said it was the best wonton soup he'd ever eaten, most places the wontons are lackluster with thick dough that leaves it gummy but these wrappers were so thin they were nearly translucent and they were delicious (I tried some). Both dishes had chasu pork and usually I'm not a fan as the fat is mushy and the pork is dry but whatever they're doing here they are doing it WELL, the pork was delicious, moist and seemed to have a sweetness to it reminiscent of a brown sugar rub, the atmosphere was cute, the prices were reasonable and the service was fast with kind workers, 10/10 would eat again.

We came in at a Thursday night 8pm, it’s kinda empty here and they close at 9:30. The foods are pretty good. My hubby ordered a Hong Kong style egg noodles and I had a creamy pork broth udon. Both are nice, especially the Cha Shu Pork is super delicious. The Hong Kong style egg noodles contain a lot of Cha Shu in it, my husband enjoyed so much. Mine has two pieces in the udon noodles, I think that’s right good for me. The noodles are nice too, plus they have a lot of noodle / ramen choices.

a great option if you are into modern customizable dishes, the menu is similar to those of most thai restaurants in san diego. it is one of those places that is very well rounded but not particularly amazing. the food was good and tasty but i wouldn’t go out of my way to rave about the place or crave eating here, unless of course i really wanted an easy menu with familiar options to choose from and was already in the area. though in all honesty, the noodle soup is the only totally “build your own” section of the menu

The food is outstanding here! Parking can be challenging and the biker bar next door can get a little noisy if you’re trying to have conversation. Still worth a try for a good variety of Asian dishes.

Nice restaurant. They have pretty much any Asian noodle dish from Chinese Dandan noodles to Indonesian mi goreng. It’s above concept and the dandan noodles were decent. The only thing missing was 碎米芽菜。Then it would’ve been super authentic! I loved the iced tea without sweetners. It was really refreshing. Spring rolls and egg fried rice were good, too.

It’s a great one stop shop for any noodle cravings you might have. Let’s face it, noodles are delicious and there are so many delicious specialties that I think it’s great you have Chinese Dandan Noodles 担担面 next to Japanese yakisoba or a Korean-Japanese fusion of gochujung udon. This is a great little place and could imagine would be ideal for takeaway orders as saw lots of deliveries going out.
I also saw they have anything from sake to soju and Asahi. Great little place!

I ate at this venue for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. Both my girlfriend and I enjoyed the two different dishes we ordered. The service was very fast and friendly. They were super attentive to us with refills and getting to go boxes. Great place to eat in or take for takeout. I’d highly recommend checking them out.

The Good: affordable, casual, quaint, date night setting, quick. Waitress was knowledgeable about the food and brought our dishes out to us as they were completed. Order the curry you can thank me later.

The Bad: seating could have been more comfortable high top chairs were not to practice.

The ugly: parking and there is only one bathroom.
