The Infatuation situates the restaurant "among the neon lights of the Theater District" and describes it as an "ever-packed" spot with a "noodle house-like vibe," friendly staff, and consistently "on-point cooking" — framing the crowding as a routine part of eating here rather than an occasional spike.
Per The Infatuation, the herb-spiked pork-and-shrimp wonton soup is "well worth the 20-minute wait," and the outlet frames that wait as time to work through other dishes — pan-fried Peking duck bundles, scallion pancakes stuffed with sliced beef, or mushroom steamed buns — while holding out for the soup. That's the only concrete wait figure found in coverage of this location.
