Awesome food, the best dan dan noodles I ever had, even better any of the ones I had in China. Highly recommend the egg plant dish as well. The other dishes were also pretty, so much so that we didn't have the chance to take photos of them, we were just busy eating away.

We had a great dinner with great food that reminded me of my home. The owner is a friendly old gentleman and we loved chatting with him. He was a former olympic gymnast and even performed a handstand for us!

I had an amazing experience eating both the Salt Pepper Eggplant and Sichuan Dandan Noodles at this restaurant. The food came super quick and was super flavorful. The owners were lovely and treated me to a handstand to entertain me. I had a great time!

Great food and great service. Nice homie place to get some good noodles after a long day of work. The owner is an ex-acrobat, very talented and a very joyful person. Will frequent this place often. Great vibes overall.

Owners have a very friendly vibe here. Came here with a friend and we had a good time. The fried eggplant is a must try if you don't mind it being a bit expensive 🫰. Crispy outside and soft inside with great flavor.

Loved their Chongqing street noodles and their spicy chicken gizzards. The spiciness is certainly authentic. The lady running the shop recommended the Dan Dan noodles over the Chongqing noodles but I still went for the Chongqing noodles since it is less commonly found.

Absolutely love this noodle shop! The flavors are authentic, the noodles are fresh and perfectly cooked, and the portions are generous. The atmosphere is cozy, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Definitely one of the best spots for a comforting bowl of noodles—I’ll be coming back often!

TL;DR - Salt and Pepper Eggplant. Get it and take the bet. A friend found this spot through social media, and we decide to give it a shot. When we arrived, the place was quiet with plenty of seating and a super convenient parking lot. It’s run by a Chinese man and woman who take turns greeting, cooking, and serving, giving a very mom-and-pop vibe in the best way. As we placed our orders, the owner confidently recommended the Salt and Pepper Eggplant - saying that if we didn’t enjoy it, he would comp the item. We couldn’t resist a fun bet, and so we shook hands on the deal. We lost that bet, but we felt like winners. The eggplant was crisp, flavorful, and perfectly fried without being too greasy. The chopped sautéed jalapeños added just the right kick. That’s important, because we quickly found out how much spicier they can go here with the other eats. I loved it, but my friend less so. If you’re spice sensitive, I would err on the side of mild. Beyond the eggplant, we tried a range of noodle dishes, including the dan dan, knife-shaved, and sautéed oil noodles. Most were solid, but the eggplant stole the show. One last thing: when you go up to pay, ask about the photo next to the register. You might hear a funny story or two.

Not too bad eating here. The fried eggplants were tasty. A good thing is that they allow the customer to bring the booze, which is available at the next door.

Authentic Chinese noodle shop with knife-cut handmade noodles that offer plenty of options. Try their beef sirloin soup for some delicious broth with Szechuan peppers, but most of their noodle dishes are good. I did find their sauteed string beans to be a little too salty, but otherwise, it wasn't too bad. The grandparent-like staff are warm and friendly and treat you like their grandchildren. Note that there is a 10% discount if you pay with cash.

My new favorite restaurant in the Bay Area. Everything I've gotten so far has been amazing, but the dandan noodle and salt and pepper eggplant are my personal favorites. Super friendly and welcoming staff. I've been here 4 times in the past week and will keep coming back!

service was kind of on the meh side -- the owner insisted on us trying the cucumber salad (we had no thoughts of ordering it at first and so we didn't ask for it) and told us we didn't have to pay if it wasn't good, but i mean how could we not pay if it was brought out to our table? it was pretty tasty but nothing too special. i don't really like that they essentially somewhat forced us to try the cucumber salad, i'm sure they knew beforehand that 99% of the time people are gonna be like "yeah it's good!". anyway the fried eggplant was really delicious and perfectly cripsy and the noodles were a bit too thick for our liking but the flavor was decent. the prices are quite high though, and it's not like the portions are that big, so perhaps re think before you come here!

Decent place. The menu is not extensive but decent. Quick popular on weekend. The cabbage was best. The beef in the tomato beef noodle was a little chewy

Horrible service front the old woman. She would attend to the other table of 9 people while we only had four people. There were only us and the other party of 9. I guess the food bill is higher so her tip is higher. Just Food was decent.
