This is your classic rice noodle soup restaurant, located inside Chinatown. The menu can be a bit confusing, but the basis of this place is that they offer several soup bases with different meat options. There is also the option for add ons such as marinated eggs, mushrooms or more meat. I ended up choosing the marinated egg with pickled cabbage soup base, and was very impressed with the soup, although slightly disappointed that the marinated egg was overcooked. I think if the egg had been soft serve, it would have been the perfect rice noodle dish! Service was great and we got our food in record time. There is also the option of karaoke here, and would be a great spot to host a large gathering!

Minced pork sauce mixed rice noodles - a must have if you are a fan of dry noodles. Thick round rice noodles soaked with savory and oily sauce, topped with perfectly seasoned lean meat. Thai style spicy fish slices rice noodles - perfect dish for a cold rainy day. Fish was soft and savory, noodles similar to the ones above, soup was incredibly comforting. Spicy but not overpowering.Service was quick and friendly. We did take outs and got everything in 10 minutes!! Spacious inside with lots of seatings.

Noodles are on the softer side that I like Shimiao more. Tomato soup is very yummy and I also think it is from real tomatoes instead of pre packaged. This is a big plus coz my whole family love tomato flavored soup. The spicy one is very spicy but watery, lack the thickness of beef broth. I am also not a fan of the type of beef they call beef brisket, nor the shrimp. The beef brisket Shimiao has is homemade real stewed brisket. The shrimp tastes pre frozen vs fresh. They were super nice to order me another soup base which is pickled. It is better than the spicy one but tomato is still better. Their gyoza is very good that I could eat three orders myself. Service is very friendly. Ambiance is nice too, although I wonder if it works with the hotpot tables layout. Everyone was trying their best to hear feedback, which is very precious nowadays. I think I will wait for them to improve and then come back to try more. Best of luck and I do wish it successful! It is good to have a second spot for rice noodles!

A new rice noodle place in Philly, soft opening now. With both soup and sauce mixed selections, and the price seems reasonable. Unfortunately the quality was disappointing...Got take out of a sauce mixed rice noodles, the box was only 60% filled... is the portion also discounted during soft opening?! lol...It's super plain yet still very salty *_* there's half a marinated egg, a few pieces of the meat you selected, barely existence shreds of carrots and that's it! There's no other veggies or other items to add any texture or flavor. So plain so boring, no much flavor other than the salty soy based sauce, and the noodles were overcooked and lost their texture. Need so much improvements!

Good price with a good selection of broth and noodles, the mala spicy soup is kinda bland but I would recommend the Thai style spicy soup, the basic noodles type is the rice noodles but they got ramen as well.

Just opened end of April. Currently running a soft opening special of 20% mealStaff was friendly and very helpful. I think she knew we were trying to figure out what everything was on our phones. She said since they just opened there aren't many pictures online yet so she could help recommend things.Mala spicy beef brisket rice noodles $12 three pepper symbol. We had two of this order. The spice level was inconsistent. One was maybe level 2/5 spicy. We added more chili oil to it. The other was 4/5 spicy. You can tell the difference by how red the broth was.The star of the show for us were the sauce mixed noodles. We got the beef shank $13 and beef tripe $13. The sauce is a garlic sauce that isn't too over powering or salty. We said we would definitely come back for this.Good price and portion sizes. Left full and satisfied. The size of the bowl compared to the food for the mixed noodles made it seem little but it was a good amount. Oh and they have a cat robot to bring some of the dishes!!

New noodle restaurant and very reasonable prices! Portions are big and broth is flavorful. So many to pick from. Two favorite appetizers are the fried bun and scallion pancakes.

I ordered the Mala Spicy Chicken Noodles and the Brown Sugar Rice Cakes. The server warned me that the broth was very spicy so I opted for the milder version. Despite requesting a milder version, the broth was still too spicy for me. Our server was very accommodating and brought a side of plain bone broth to help. Also note that the noodles were quite soft, making them difficult to eat with the chopsticks.

We picked this place entirely at random, and it was a really nice experience. They had a robot cat server (with which we didn't interact ) and the human staff was also groovy. We got the scallion pancakes, which were crispy and delicious, and a chicken/rice dish (which I didn't eat), and a soup.
