We got our food to go, but would have sat inside if we didn’t need to be someplace shortly after our stop in. We got the wheat noodles with peanut butter sauce and the pork and chive dumplings and with tip it was $10 for two people for lunch! What a bargain. The noodles were delightful and we added the leftover dumpling sauce, had we ate there I would have added Sriracha to it and it would have been perfect. The dumplings were crisp and steaming hot and delicious, though they did short us one so we only got seven instead of the eight we ordered. Make sure you count before you leave! We will be back and dine in to enhance our experience.

A quick service, no frills experience with incredible food! It’s cash only, but the price you see is the price you pay. The peanut noodles made it viral, but as I ate, locals were ordering everything throughout the menu. I got the wheat noodles with peanut sauce for $3.25 and the 7pc friend pork and chive dumpling for $5. Waters were $1 and sodas were $1.50. The line moves super quick, so don’t be afraid to wait.

When we walked in, there was a long line, but it moved quickly. I only waited about 5–7 minutes to order. They have signs on the wall saying you should know your order before stepping up and clean up after yourself, but I noticed a lot of people don’t really pay attention to that — so just be prepared. What I ordered: Wheat Noodles with Peanut Sauce (#5) – It was good, but I wish the sauce was thicker and more buttery so it would coat the noodles better. It was a bit watery, so the sauce kept sliding off when I picked up the noodles. Adding the chili oil from the table definitely helped improve the flavor. Small Pork-Filled Fish Ball Soup (#11) – Pretty good overall. The broth was clean and hot (though it cooled down quickly). The fish balls tasted like real fish paste, not the powdery hotpot-style. Overall, it was a good experience — two dishes for under $10 is hard to beat. Service was quick and efficient as long as you’re ready to order without hesitation. Also, it’s cash only.

Peanut mee pok is unique and delicious. Add the home made chilli to enhance taste. Not siracha. Dumplings are ok. Good for the price. Queue is super long on a Sunday afternoon; from the door all the way in. But service is super fast. Takes less than 10 min to reach the front and receive my food less than 3 min after ordering. Place is cramp, so sharing of table is usual.

I swear I could eat 20 of the pork and chive dumplings in one sitting. They are that good! And cheap! $3 dollars a plate! Be prepared to wait for a table and sit family style. The peanut noodles were a no for me.
