Hop Sheing Noodle House

"They used to have real grilled chicken, but have replaced it with texture less chicken meatballs, do not get the ramen! Their staff is sarcastic and condescending, and will charge a 2$ fee if you annoy them."

"I wasn't going to initially publicly post this review, because all I wanted was my money back, but since this establishment doesn’t offer refunds for unsatisfied customers, I will express my experience under their review section. A few weeks ago, I came to this restaurant for the first time to try “real” ramen noodles. Something told me not to order food here when I walked in to an unpleasant odor coming from inside, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt. Ordered my food, came home, and noticed this slump (picture provided). While I am not an expert on Asian culture, I am 110% sure that chicken inside of real ramen is NOT supposed to look like chewed up deli meat and feel like slime. I’ve seen plenty of ramen dishes from Asian restaurants, and they looked nothing like my order. I took the food back to the restaurant, and the front desk guy informed me that the “chicken” was chicken meatballs. Chicken meatballs? In ramen? Never heard of it… He asked me what did I expect to have in ramen (in a sarcastic manner) and I’m like dude I don’t know, but not no chicken meatballs. He overall was a cool dude, but I really wish I could have gotten my money back. He offered substitutes, but I declined, because why would I want anything else from that restaurant if the first impression of their food wasn’t appetizing? So, that was my experience with this place. If you decide to try, I hope all goes well. Just know that if you’re not happy, you will not get your money back."

"I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, the boba teas are the best in the area. The Noodles are also outstanding, the owner of the restaurant is one of the coolest guys and the atmosphere here is great. Truly great niche place, highly recommend you give it a try!"

"I ordered chicken pad Thai and bubble tea. the bubble tea was pretty good although I've never had it so I'm no expert. I really liked the flavor and tenderness of the chicken and the overall flavor of the dish was amazing. I ordered it with all the vegetables but only received a few which was a bit of a let down. the main problem I had was that my meal was so liquidy that it spilled out all in the bag and made a mess of my car. Also the noodles were overcooked. I'd definitely be back for the bubble tea but maybe not the food."

"This is a small restaurant on Fort Street Just south of Goddard in Lincoln Park. Nothing fancy on the inside. In fact, they are closed in the dining room and are open for carry out only. I ordered the Singapore noodles with shrimp. Spiced perfectly! Spicy, but not over the top! The food here is really second to none! If you were anywhere near here, you must and I mean must stop in! You won’t be disappointed!❤️❤️❤️"
