The food is fantastic and fresh. The service isn't the friendliest, but that is expected due to foot traffic and them wanting to get orders out quickly. I would highly suggest this restaurant as orders are quick and it's near Leicester Square Station which makes take away convenient.

Great noodles! Come hungry because the portions are generous, way more than I could finish. The space is really small so be ready to share a table with another group. Easier to get a spot if you're solo or just two.

I saw way too many positive reviews of this place and knew we had to go there. Its quite a small place and turns out they had more seating below. My girlfriend wasn't thrilled that we had to share a table, but once she saw the dishes coming by, that thankfully faded away. We took a shot at their chicken fried rice which had snowpeas mini corns and chunks of carrots in it. The next dish was a beautiful chicken chow mein which freshly made noodles that we witnessed made as you walked in. We also ordered pan fried dumplings which was crispy perfect and amazingly delicious. The beef dish we ordered was the green garlic fried beef that was out of this world amazing. We took the rest home and definitely recommend this place, which isn't officially in Chinatown, but close. It honestly takes the prize as numero uno in my opinion of any restaurant in London. This place needs a Michelin star.

We were near the Chinatown area of London. We had walked by this restaurant the day before and I wanted to eat here. The food looked good. The next day we were walking in Chinatown and the food and restaurants were pretty busy. So, I remembered this restaurant which actually has Chinese letters for the business name, so I am happy to understand what the name is here on Yelp. Anyway, I ordered a two entree plate with an egg roll. It was lo mein with chicken and black bean sauce and chicken and mushrooms. We each ordered the same meal. I thought it was very good. The food was served hot and stayed that way despite us sitting outside in the chilly air. They have inside seating but it was very crowded. The egg roll was pretty good. Prices were reasonable. I liked this restaurant quite a bit.

Fast service! Gets really crowded tho during the dinner rush and you sit elbow to elbow with fellow diners. It was cool seeing them pull the noodles in front of you too! The beef noodle soup was delish and if you like pho you'll love this

The hand pulled beef noodle soup tasted amazing, and was perfect in the cold weather. This place is truly a hole in the wall and the noodles are soft and chewy. At the front you can see the workers prepping the food. There was indoor seating and there was a short wait to enter. However, our food came out smoothly and it was the perfect warm, light bowl of noodle soup.

They do not, I repeat, do not do the stretching noodles and fresh hand cut noodles in front of you. This place is very easy to get to, very clean, very neat, very accommodating with any menu item you would like, even if it's not on the menu. The people here are extremely gracious, but the place is extremely extremely small. Definitely not a place for large groups. Over all food was outstanding and I would definitely go again :)

No frills, fast service. The restaurant was cramped but they sat us down quickly in the basement. I was a tourist in London and wanted some late night authentic Chinese food. The noodles did tasted hand pulled (had the al dente chewy texture) and the broth wasn't bad. Good enough for last minute find in a foreign city for me.

Love finding a hole in the wall! Chinatown is full of hidden gems. I really loved how efficient the service was! They're known for their hand pulled noodles. I got the beef stew with thin noodles, but definitely wish I got the thicker flat noodles! My friends got the seafood and a vegetarian peanut dish. I would definitely come back for the peanut dish to give that a try
