Signature Dishes
Beef Noodles
The broth is clear and sweet, with beef-bone aroma and a rich, easy-to-drink profile, but it may also be oily; the beef is tender and well-seasoned, the noodles springy, and portion size varies across visits.
Yangchun Noodles
The soup noodles are light and smooth, with the noodles cooked just right; the flavor is simple, and the takeaway version may have a less satisfying texture than dining in.
Braised Sides
Choose from a range of braised items; beef tendon, beef shank, and large intestine can be flavorful or tender, while tofu and kelp can sometimes taste plain. They are priced by weight, and the braised items may sell out if you arrive late.
