I liked that the noodles and spice level were customizable with the dishes…read more My favorite noodle was the thick round and my favorite dish was the chicken skewer. Dan Dan noodles are good if you like peanut butter. The flat wide noodles are satisfying if you're looking for a thick noodle. They don't really absorb flavor and is more for texture. The crispy tofu pieces were nice and big, I really liked them in the braised beef broth. The servers were very attentive, and they checked up on us periodically.

That this is even an option in a MALL is probably 5 stars by itself…read more My eyes set on Dan Dan noodles, a standard for any Chinese noodle place. I ordered at the two (out of three) spice level, and it delivered. Lots of garlic flavoring as well Service was quick and efficient

It is a sit down restaurant (they also do to go orders) but feels relatively casual! It's a good spot for meeting up with friends or family. At the tableside, there is extra soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil which is nice so people can adjust things to their own taste! However, I found the items seasoned perfectly and did not need to adjust anything. They have plenty of vegetarian options, and if you ask, they will give you a version of the menu that is annotated to show what is and isn't vegetarian! Some modifications can be made to menu items, and they will let you know if it's something they can accommodate. Different dishes come with different noodle shapes as the standard preparation if you don't specify what you want, but you are able to pick your shape if you'd like. We chose extra wide for both our noodle dishes. The spicy oil noodles would typically come with extra wide noodles and the garlic stir fry would have come with thick noodles if we hadn't specified otherwise! We ordered the spicy fried flatbread pieces, the shaanxi oil splash noodles, and the garlic stir fried noodles with veggies! There is a window where you can watch as the hand pulled noodles are being made, which is fun. The service was speedy, with the food coming out in less than 10 minutes after we ordered, and our water being refilled well before it got empty. For the food, I cannot stress this enough: get the spicy fried flatbread bites! It is so good. The bread is slightly soft in the middle but you get a nice crunch from the edges. The bread has such a good flavor, with five spice and chili peppers. It's not super spicy, so a reasonable option for someone who just wants a little spice. The shaanxi oil splash noodles are another story. They are really good but have more of a kick to them, which is to be expected since they are mostly chili oil and noodles. The mildness of the bok choy balanced the chili oil out well. I really enjoyed this dish and will for sure get it again! The garlic stir fried noodles were also good! It has a slightly tangy umami flavor, mostly driven by the soy sauce and vinegar base. We ordered it with veggies, which came with carrots and zucchini in addition to the bell peppers and tomatoes. While I would also get it again, the oil splash noodles rank higher for me! Overall it was a positive experience and very much worth the visit! For anyone who's read this far into my review, I want to reiterate go order the spicy fried flatbread pieces!!!

The noodles were very good chewy springy, but the broth was quite disappointing. It had little to no flavor. The shrimp were quite small and the mussels were the large New Zealand ones not the PEI small ones. I'm not a huge fan of the larger New Zealand ones so I picked them out and did not eat them. My friend who had a cold noodle dish, also expressed that it did not have much flavor, but the noodles were again quite good.

Great ramen and boba place with various combo menu! We've been to their Plymouth location, but…read moreprefer this Eagan location. As far as I remember, Eagan location has more booths, which gives more traditional Japanese vibes. My chicken ramen was solid. Chicken was nicely grilled but the broth tased just like MSG. The noodles doesn't look premium (feels like packaged ramen) but overall I liked it. The pork meal was okay! The rice was oily and not much taste to it. It's also hard to eat out of the bowl without a spoon, which they don't provide. Japanese fries are a must-try; it's large not too salty and the sauces are just phenomenal. Service was good but a little slow. It was dinner time on Friday, so they were probably very busy. We pressed the button two times but they didn't come. They automatically charged 18% gratuity fees so you don't have to tip them if you don't want to. Boba bar is right at the entrance!! The brown sugar was phenomenal. I got it with milk instead of milk tea, which makes the texture less creamy but I really liked it. Dragon tea just wasn't it and it tastes nothing like dragon fruit.

If you're here for a date, I'd recommend coming a bit earlier so you can get one of the booths that they have with the curtains.

Some items are already cooked and you can see other items being prepared in the back. I got a bowl with white rice and 3 different dishes. It was great to have the variety, lots of veggies, and nice to have options that weren't deep fried. They have several of those options too. Fairly authentic flavors including the numbing Szechuan peppercorns. Great option for more healthy and flavorful quick casual dining.

The kiosk prints out a ticket, which you will hand to a staff member in the queue. He/she will assemble your food and puts it on a tray. Then you'll go through selecting fried appetizers and stuff for an additional fee. When you get to the cash register, they have drinks available. You could order their lattes too via the kiosk. I just had a Coke. There is water available too by the plastic silverwares. When you are done, you bring your dirty dishes to the tray return area. Simple. FOOD: The food was good. I had a tonkotsu udon with added charshu pork. The broth was delicious. I saw other dining patrons who drank from their bowl! The calamari was cooked right. I didn't need any sauce. I also bought the spam musubi, which was egg, SPAM, and rice--I saved it for later and it was delicious. PARKING: I parked at the Oak Street Parking Ramp that is affiliated to the University of Minnesota/M Health. It is $3.00 for 1 hour. The restaurant is just right around the corner. There are street parking available, but I'm not gonna drive around near rush hour/near when students are finishing up their last class and just wanting to get home. There were plenty of parking space in that ramp.

The beef in the noodle salad was tender and marinated with tons of flavor. Noodles were Al dente. I loved all the fresh vegetables.

I stopped in for lunch and was seated right away--there weren't many people dining in, and the space was clean and inviting. We were in a rush, and the staff was super accommodating.

You pay at the counter on your way out, which made for a quick and easy exit. We were in and out, which was perfect since we were short on time.

Usually there is a very nice young girl working the front. Today I decided I wanted lunch while I take a break from DoorDashing. I walked into the restaurant and saw my order was ready but I had to use the restroom so I proceeded to walk toward the back where they are located. As I'm walking back there an older crabby woman with a permanent frown moved the phone away from her mouth and yelled, "excuse me"! I looked at her in shock and said, "I'm going to use the restroom". I'm 36 and something like this has never happened in all my years of life. Why on Earth would I walk to the back of the restaurant with a secret agenda!? People usually wash their hands before they eat anyways. I 100% feel like she said that to me because I am brown. I use the restroom at many restaurants all day as a doordasher and I have never had someone try to stop me when it's very obvious where I was going. I've never written a review before but I think during the times we are in other brown people need to be aware of the microaggressions the Apple Valley staff, specifically the crabby old woman has toward brown people. I will not be coming back to this location after this Interaction. I'm not spending my money AND TIPPING people who think I'm a threat. Don't come here, drive to the Eagan location.

We also ordered a larger entree. They have tons of sauces available in a little sauce bar set up. Lemon water and regular water was also a nice touch. The seating was comfy and inviting, and even outdoor seating available. Their miso soup was the best I've ever had. I like miso to begin with but there was extra stuff in theirs that really made it special! I also loved the sushi tacos on- it was unlike anything I've had before. The taco shell was so crunchy, and fun to eat. I believe it was a tempura seaweed shell. The onigiri were also so cute and fun to eat. They were also very friendly and helpful. I can't wait to come back and try the udon!
