- expect a small wait, when it is busy there is no greeter, just look for the clipboard and write down your name- there is not a lot of parking in front, but there is also a covered lot in the back- washrooms are quite small and not the cleanestI would recommend this place for a relatively budget friendly spot for a quick and filling meal.Food was good, we had the lamb cross bridge noodle and the noodle pot for 3. It was a lot of food. The broths were flavourful and came out piping hot.We enjoyed the sauce station in the middle of the restaurant for guests to add extra condiments and garnishes.Service was mediocre. But it was to be expected I suppose, since the restaurant is newly opened and they are adjusting.

A nice piping hot noodle soup is just what We need here in dreary Vancouver weather. Love the concept of cooking fresh ingredients in a stone bowl of piping hot soup, but this fell short as some of the veggie barely got cooked, such as carrots and cabbage. But the soup was excellent with al dente noodles, especially the assembled and cooked pickled cabbage noodle with fish. Next time I am definitely going for the precooked bowls.

Generous portions with tasty broth.
