3 reviews for H858 Corp.
Since this is a noodle house, most of the items are noodle-based! Don't listen to the people who say the noodle is "bland" because the broth didn't sexually penetrate the noodle. Be a man and add in some hot chili oil! I always find that makes the dish really stand out on it's own.
Fried dumplings were quite fine. The roast duck soup was very good, and the stuff on the menu is painfully cheap. Atmosphere is nice and the crowd is almost exclusively local (Chinese).
Quite nice, I would go there on a cold Brooklyn day and warm up with this alternative to chicken soup!
This place was recommended to me from a friend of mine as being one of the more authentic noodle shop in the city. Having high hopes of the place, I decided to give this place a try.
H858 is not hard to find, located on the busy 8th ave. I walked in, got seated, and ordered the beef noodle soup. I took off my jacket and hanged it behind the chair and set my messenger bag on the empty seat next to me. As I was finishing doing that, my beef noodle soup was ready. The service was incredibly fast, leaving me to wonder whether they actually cook to order.
As the previous poster had said, the meats were very flavorful. It is pinkish in color and very tender. The broth is refreshing and not too oily. The noodle I felt was just okay. The texture and chewiness was decent, but it tasted bland. The flavor of the broth did not penetrate the noodle well. In addition, aside from the meat, noodle and broth, there was nothing else in the bowl except a couple pieces of raw spinach floating on the top. I wish there are some more stuff going on.
Despite these negatives, I may come back to try their stir fry noodle dishes.
One thing to note is that most of the stuff on the menu is $3 and above even for appetizers. I was thinking about ordering an appetizer but decided against it because it was $6. I assume these appetizers are portioned for a party of 3 or more. I will know more next time when I come with more people.
This place mainly serves hand pulled noodles for a very very reasonable price. I got the beef hand pulled noodles for $5! It was really really good. I was pretty surprised I have to say. The beef had soo much flavor and the soup wasn't oily either. The noodles were a bit al dente.
My friend got the beef ball hand pulled noodles and was very satisfied as well. Service was very fast and friendly. We got our orders within 5 minutes. The only gripe is that they don't serve free water, you have to buy a bottle.
