The ambience is that of a small Ramen house that you would find in downtown Tokyo. It's decorated beautifully and yet simply, giving you a feel that the food, the surroundings and the service blend well together to give you a wonderful dining experience. They have a wonderful variety of imported beers, imported soda, and various drinks to complement the ample meal that you are served. It's easy to do takeout, but I would recommend staying in and visiting with the owner or one of the very pleasant servers. The overall experience is A+.

The soondubu and bulgogi plates are always delicious and clearly made fresh to order. The ingredients taste high quality, the portions are generous, and the food feels both comforting and healthy. What I really appreciate is the consistency -- every time we come, the quality is just as good as the last visit. We've brought several friends here over the years, and many of them swear by the Korean fried chicken. It's always crispy, flavorful, and a must-order when we come in a group. Beyond the food, the owners make this place special. The couple who run the restaurant are incredibly kind and welcoming. They always greet us with a warm smile and thank us when we leave, which makes the whole experience feel personal and genuine. You can really tell they care about their customers and their food. A true neighborhood gem that we'll keep coming back to.

They have a lot of seating available in their new location and just like the staff making you feel like family, it feels like you are visiting family in the restaurant. Food wise I am a picky fried rice eater, and I will say best fried rice I've had from any restaurant! My cousin ordered this lamb stir fry like dish and as someone who does not like lamb, I would order again! The meat was tender and flavorful through every bite and I'm sure that flavor will be for any meat you choose. Each dish has great balance of flavor and I enjoy the use of actual Thai basil in many dishes. Will definitely make this a returning trip and try all the items on the menu!

Twice now I've walked into Jersey Mike's, looked at their pricing and their offerings and walked next door into noodle house to order a BANH MI instead. I've tried their curry, their pho, and of course their sandwiches!! Their teas are also really good too and not as pricey as tea bar. The restaurant itself is always quiet and cool, and the staff is very pleasant. Lastly, one of the things my dad taught me was to rate places on the cleanliness of their bathroom. They've always got clean one.

The pho also came out with only been sprouts, basil, and lime. I had to ask for extra cilantro otherwise there would have been none in the soup? Pho without cilantro or rau răm just feels lacking. On top of all this, the combination pho should come with tripe and tendon, I only found a few measly pieces of tripe and tendon (see pictures). The brisket and beef slices were a bit dry. I think I would have preferred it to be a bit more rare when coming out rather than tough and over cooked. Seems not many places in Chico do that. Now some of the good. The beef they do give is plentiful and I didn't really feel like it needed more. There was a good amount of brisket slices and beef balls. The pho noodles were cooked and not clumpy.

The broth I think tastes the same so that's good. However, I noticed that the beef slices were so much tougher and dryer now. Previously, the slices were thin and slightly rare when coming out so they weren't over done. Now, the cuts are thick and chunky and much tougher to chew. Interestingly, they just dump the cilantro into the soup directly rather than have it on the side for you to garnish. They still provide a sizable pieces of tripe, which I like. The tendon is smaller and not as big chunks as before. Sadly, I left a bit disappointed. I might try again in another couple of months to see if they return to the previous level of quality.

I'll start with this- comparing it to SF/authentic dim sum wouldn't be fair, but it was better than I would expect a dumpling house to be for this area. We tried a bunch of different things. Soup dumplings, potstickers, chive pancake, pork buns, and more! Everything came out hot and fast! There weren't many other people there (several more arrived after us), so it was nice that it came out fast since we had a toddler in tow (IYKYK). I did feel like a few dishes didn't have much flavor, like the potstickers and the shrimp/chive dumplings, but everything else was tasty, hot, fresh, and as expected. I saw several people making dumplings behind the glass counter and that was fun to watch! I would definitely come back again and look forward to trying other dishes as well!
