4.0
I ordered takeout because I was craving some Asian Chinese noodles. The place itself looked fine, and I usually don’t like leaving bad reviews. I saw the rating was 4.8, so I expected the food to be the same high quality. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. The noodles themselves were not great — I’ve definitely had much better elsewhere. - Dinara Sydykova
