Staff was nice and restaurant was clean and perfectly fibe. Food was overpriced and soup based tasted like it was made using ramen flavour packet and the noods did not taste fresh. Save the money and go to any other asian store around.

Used to come here a lot so thought I'd stop in yesterday. Was quickly seated and they were fairly busy for lunch. I like how the walls tell you a bit about the food and history, I think it adds a nice touch. Ordered the salty crispy chicken app, it could've been deep fried a bit less since the chicken was not that juicy, it still hit my fried chicken craving. I also ordered the spicy crossing the bridge noodle soup, def on the spicier side of a normal spice dish so I loved it but be warned that it's similar to Sichuan spice. I got it with beef slices and I thought it added a nice touch. Also ordered the honeydew mojito (it's non alcoholic) and thought it was delicious. Overall, had a great lunch and will be stopping by again!

Excellent, authentic noodles. Great taste, fresh meat, and lots of delicious add-ins. My favorite are their signature over-the bridge noodles, with sliced beef. The photo I attached is the tomato base over-the-bridge option. ? 好吃 = hao chī = tasty !Apparently, this is a national chain in China. We're lucky to have one in Pittsburgh.

This was the amount of meat on the "bone-in pork" i paid $15 for. More like "pork on bone". Shameful.

Just saw the bad health food article on the news. Bugs in rice, raw chicken behind heated buns, bug infestation in there basement, old meat and bone particles on meat saw, workers not washing hands, hot food kept at wrong temperatures and cold foods kept at wrong temperatures. Supposedly not the first time the bad food regulations were brought to the attention of health department. Just things I just now read from the news website about squirrel hill Forbes ave location.

I’m seriously crying right now do you wanna know why? Because I don’t even live in the city and I don’t know if I can live without this restaurant I swear it is that good I got the noodles with the tomato-based broth some bread and some pumpkin cakes it is so good when I went back onto Uber Eats, it was actually rated one of the best restaurants in the city according to Uber eats you all need to run not walk to the nearest restaurant. This food is out of this world good oh, and I almost forgot the prices are fantastic
