"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."
