Sat down, waited about 15 min for service. Still no service. We see a few other tables get service that came in after us! We look at waitress, she looks at us, then ignores us. Wait another 15+ min. Waitress FINALLY comes over to take our order. I think, "Oh, OK, maybe there was just a little confusion." There's a bit of a wait to get our food. We begin to eat and take LITERALLY 2 bites before the waitress brings us the bill. I feel rushed and insulted! Both my girlfriend and I are rather upset, but at least the food is fairly good. THEN, 1 minute later, still have 90%+ of our meals to eat, out of the nowhere that crazy waitress comes up to us and asks, "How are you paying?" WHAT THE HECK! Is this normal?! We say by Debit and she waits for us to get the wallet and give her the card. WHAT THE HECK, I was eating, in fact, JUST started eating! I have NEVER had such a rushed, insulting and enraging evening out to eat ever in my life (and I’ve eaten out all over the place in Davis about once a week for the past 2 years)!!! Is that normal policy? We quickly ate, left and did NOT leave a tip. I absolutely hate this place. It seems as though nobody else was treated that way! Everyone else just paid at the end, like normal, as far as I could tell. I would say, avoid this place like the devil because the service is INSULTING, but I think my experience was an exception.

The service he recieved is unacceptable and will not happen again. I am so grateful that my customers have taken the time to give their input so that we can make Davis Noodle City a restaurant you love to come to. Jon, my sincerest apologies for your experience, please let us make the next one better. Your comment means a great deal to me and I would like to thank you personally. Now that I am back, I will be here most everyday. I hope to see you soon.--["LindaLiu"]<br> + Linda, thank you for responding in a courteous and professional manner rather than just deleting negative comments or creating sock-puppet accounts. -- ["ArlenAbraham"]<br> + <br> + Any restaurant owner who makes a sincere apology on a wiki deserves a second chance, for sure. --["Users/GregKuperberg"]<br> + <br> + ------<br> + ''2006-06-12 11:20:35'' [[nbsp]] I love the classical music that they play. It's so relaxing when eating. My faviorite dish by far is the sechwan Eggplant. --["AnitaClaverie"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-07-15 23:15:53'' [[nbsp]] I used to eat noodle city five spice beef, and i love it becaue it's very tender and soft. I tried it again on two occasions a few months ago and they were no longer tender. They were very hard. I'm just surprised at their inconsistent quality. I"m not sure if it's because each cook does it differently. --["KiemVu"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-07-29 19:49:45'' [[nbsp]] The chicken fried rice is excellent. --["DaveCar"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-08-01 18:36:21'' [[nbsp]] FROM ONE CHINESE SISTAR TO ANOTHER, GO FOR THE FIVE SPICE BEEF NOODLE SOUP. it'll remind you of home. --["EmilyTung"]<br> + * Is this the only restaurant in Davis that serves 紅燒牛肉麵? They use a fairly basic recipe but it's way better than not having it at all. --["AndrewChen"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-08-27 17:47:02'' [[nbsp]] I heart heart the Chef Noodle salad!! Also the Dan Dan is signature goodness. --["ThuHo"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-09-03 22:55:02'' [[nbsp]] I'll start my review by saying that I've probably had too much good chinese food from LA so I'm biased. I had the Marco Polo and it was okay; it was a little too salty for my tastes. The fried pork chop with noodle had a soup base that was reminiscent of instant noodle (sorry). Perhaps I should have tried some other items on the menu. The prices were fair though and I would eat here again, but probably try some other things on the menu. It was pretty crowded as well! --["KatYu"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-10-21 12:21:39'' [[nbsp]] Mmmm... the Dan Dan Noodles. They were great. Plus, I really felt I got the value of my $5-- there were a ton of noodles! --["StacieTownsend"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-10-21 12:23:26'' [[nbsp]] The service is too good --["AlJean"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-10-26 19:26:35'' [[nbsp]] This is probably my favorite restaurant in davis. The 5 Spice beef is delicious (I love soups so the broth and noodles were fantastic). The green onion pastry is supurb! Bowls are quite large (just a forewarning!) Service has always been quick and really friendly. I highly recommend the place ^_^ --["UnhappyStudent"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-11-01 15:54:18'' [[nbsp]] This is my new favorite chinese place in Davis. The food is fresh and tasty and the portions are generous. In my experience, the staff was quite courteous. I highly recommend all of the dumplings as well as the chow mein and Szechuan Eggplant. Please, lets keep this great place open!! --["GradStudent06"]<br> + -----<br> + 2006-12-03 [[nbsp]] I went here today and had the Sichuan Chicken with rice. While it was very good, it was a little overwhelming on my tastebuds. Still, I can see myself coming back and trying some of the other things on the menu. I do have to say service was both excellent as well as polite. It felt great dining here. --["ClaytonRehmus"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-12-11 23:26:33'' [[nbsp]] Best little kept secret in Davis. Food is consistant and the service is what keeps me coming back for more. The beef is chewy and fatty- they should use a higher quality of beef, especially with the scare of mad cow disease. Use a local beef from an all natural beef farm. Another thing though...I wish the staff/cooks would not assemble food in the restaurant area. It kinda grossess me out to see their hands in my potential meal. I do not want to see ANY precooked food coming in the front door. Please! Not a good idea for new customers to see that. Use your backdoor only for deliveries. --["NoelWasicki"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-12-13 20:37:06'' [[nbsp]] I love this place. Good prices for lunch time and the portions are large. The vegetable curry, however, tastes strangely like the boxed curry you can buy at the supermarket. Oh well, the food is great and the restaurant is small and personal, I love it! --["JohnHumperdinkle"]<br> + ------<br> + ''2006-12-20 10:52:05'' [[nbsp]] A great place for veg food. If you like food a little spicy try the Hunan tofu with noodles. The best Chinese food in town. --["ScottWeintraub"]</span> </td> </tr> </table> </div>
