I arrived just after the doors opened at 11:30 AM and discovered the prices on their lunch specials very attractive. I enjoyed a very fulfilling lunch for under $10.

Place is small and we were the only people in the restaurant. They had some take out orders. Waitress nice. Food on the...spicy side. Seafood noodles had jalapeño and the small red peppers with the seeds. The tripe and beef had a lot of chilli oil as well as the beef noodle soup. I really liked the deep fried chicken fried rice.

We ordered the fried noodles, beef noodle soup, and dan dan noodles, all of which were excellent. The dan dan noodles appeared spicy, but they were not excessively hot. The prices are reasonable, and the owner, who served us, was very friendly. I complimented the noodles on their great taste, and the owner mentioned that they are made fresh in-house. I will definitely be returning!
