Best part of the meal was the spinach with garlic stir fry. Sweet and sour pork was kinda mushy. Rice noodle stir fry was ok, tasted kinda like packaged rice noodle tbh. Hot and sour soup tasted less spicy than it smelled. White rice was a little sad... Thursday night and the place was full of young people, a lot of rowdy crowds.

I'm Chinese and living in los Angeles which has awesome Chinese food. We had the garlic chicken that's was so good that I didn't get around to taking a picture. Loaded with garlic and grilled onions eat it all! The sweet and sour whole fish was fantastic. All this plus fried rice and 2 beers for 38 euros. They have peking duck that looked pretty great. If this place was where I live I would be there at least twice a month. They only take cash or Portugal credit cards

That is a steal for a huge bowl of noodles. Beef noodles soup was good - lots of noodles. Broth not as hearty as I'd like but the beef was suuuper flavorful and tender. Zha jiang mian was amazing - so legit. It looks dry/light but once you mix it up it's amazing and there is enough sauce to cover it all up! Service is pretty non existent but don't mind it. Order at the counter. They'll then shout your order out and you go up and grab it. There are diff pickled veggies and hot sauce to dress your noodles with, self serve. Pay at the register when you're done. Lots of seating, no decor really. Feels like you're eating at auntie's house.
