Mmmm. Absolutely lived up to all of the hype.

Seated quickly on a weekday during the lunch rush! POINTS.
Delicious food served piping hot! POINTS.
Egg flower or hot n' sour soup served complimentary with lunch! POINTS.
And who can resist the charm of a host (not my actual server) who comes over to interrupt my lunch to tell me how gorgeous I am? I can't; DOUBLE POINTS.

Okay, I do hate to be negative so I'll just give you some highlights.

1. Tasteless: we asked for our noodles spicy and they were not. Dumplings and sauce were not flavorful. The fresh spring rolls had no mint or cilantro, so they had tofu, lettuce, and rice noodles = bland.

2. Waitstaff: Skirts were very short, I did not order rump with my noodles.

At Shandong in Oakland, my jaw is on the floor in awe like a murdering piranha over the exceptional value they offer.
