Dropped in after looking at the outside menu indicating newfood such as fried jalapeños and hotdog pancakes. Ended up trying the house special noodle soup which included all types of goodies such as dumplings, crab meat, shrimp, etc. Extremely good stuff. Highly recommend. Next time I'll try out their Asian burger menu.
I've been eyeing this place, waiting in anticipation for it to open. I assumed, since it was decently close to 8th ave, it would be a nice authentic chinese noodle soup place. Unfortunately, I walked in, looked at the menu, was realized it's just another Americanized chinese restaurant. I was craving a roast pork wonton soup–the kind you will get at most chinese soup shops in Chinatown or 8th Ave–but their soup options were lacking, and roast pork or duck wasn't even an option. I ended up getting the wonton noodle soup. The wontons were the big carb type, not the hong kong type I was hoping for. The noodles were just lo mein noodle, not the traditional thin egg noodle. They added cilantro–which added a nice flavor.
Wouldn't recommend if you were expecting authentic chinese food–but would probably go back when I'm having a craving for some seasame chicken.
Everyday, I've walked past Propserity Noodle, wondering when they'd open. Then late last week, the gate was *finally* up. No, it wasn't open, but the guy behind the counter handed me the menu and said they'd open in a couple days.
I'll start with the disappointment first. Based on the name, I was expecting more Chinese street food and less AmChin dishes. Tons of dumplings and little dim sum apps. While there are a few app items, the menu reads more like any Chinese takeout place. With the exception of…
Noodle soups! That's the thing we're trying next. We've already tried several dishes and everything was tasty and fresh. I don't know if it's because they just opened or if they will be that good down the road (I hope they are) but thus far, this is our absolute go-to spot.
In particular, we tried the chicken chow (we devoured), Mongolian chicken and beef chow fun. The beef chow fun was tasty but pretty much something you can get anywhere. The Mongolian chicken was definitely a little different and very good.
I think that because of the Chinese crowd that work in the area and use the subway across the street, the food leans a little more to authentic than other take-outs. We're going to definitely try the soup bowls, as that looks like their hidden gem.
Based on the sole other review (and the fact that it's a Chinese restaurant), we will probably avoid the pad thai.
