I was in the area with my kids and we stopped here on the way home to pick up some dumplings. I remembered coming her years ago when my son attended SBU. We had a decent meal and I thoroughly enjoyed their soups and dumplings. I'm not sure if it's due to the pandemic but I feel like the quality of the food fell off. The have a small parking lot located in the rear of the establishment. They're a small restaurant but have plenty of seating. When we ate here the first time, they were extremely packed in the middle of the day but on this particular day, they were very empty. I arrived hoping to get a myriad of dumplings but unfortunately, they now only have three types: chicken, pork & leek, and pork & Chinese cabbage. I ordered two each of the chicken and the pork & leek, all pan-fried. I was going to order some pork buns as well but the guy taking my order said they would take 20 minutes to make. I declined because we still had to drive back home another 90 minutes. We ended up waiting over 30 minutes for the 4 orders of dumplings and I'm unsure as to why. If I would have known they would have taken that long I would have said forget it. I also ordered some frozen chicken dumplings and paid for them but was told they ran out. Instead of bothering with a refund, I just told them to sub the pork & leek dumplings. When we finally got our order, we rushed home. I warmed up the dumplings for dinner by steaming them for a couple of minutes, and served with some quick ramen, addicting cucumber and a dumpling sauce I had to make because they didn't come with any sauce at all. They were OK. They are filled quite nicely but the flavor is definitely not as I expected or remembered. The chicken dumplings we "meh" but the pork & leek tasted much better. A few of them tore open very easily. Regarding the establishment itself, they could do some cleaning in there. I know it's a college area restaurant but while we waited, we noticed a lot of concerning things. Their doors are utterly disgusting. They are painted white and it looks as though they've never been wiped down. There is so much grime and crud from people touching them. Neither bathroom had soap which is a HUGE red flag. If the staff also uses the bathrooms, who's washing their hands correctly, and how? I also saw one of the guys in the kitchen wipe his face with tissue and place it on a tray. He neither had gloves on or cleaned his hands afterwards. He legit, went right back to handling food and the pans. I'm sure many people don't really pay attention despite there being an open kitchen but since we were not wanting to wait there that long and we were wondering why our order was taking so long, we had all the time in the world to just observe. The dining area really isn't very clean and I would probably skip another visit in the future. read more

Great authentic Chinese cuisines. This place is not your typical Chinese fast food menu. We enjoy their All In One Hot pot that can feed our family of 5 and still have left overs. Reasonable price of restaurant quality food at near take out prices. read more

Delicious! I got the cabbage and beef meal and the pork and cabbage dumplings and it was all amazing. Though they don't have dumpling dipping sauce. It's either soy or chilli sauce for that. This is a big university take out place but you can eat here. Lots of Asian students and more traditional Asian food than American-Chinese food. This is an order at the counter and take home or eat at the table and bus your dishes but very good food and comfort food! Lots of students coming in to get dinner and either eat there or take out. Looking forward to trying other dishes here. read more

China Station - 39. Pork and Chinese Cabbage Boiled Dumpling and beef and 12. Beef with Chinese Cabbage - Noodles Near Me - Stony Brook, New York

Yelper Grub Adventures D. raves about this place. I could see why. The stick bean curd absorbed all the flavors that it was seasoned with: chili and sesame oil, as per my server Daniel. It is a cold appetizer that is made from dried tofu skin. Delicious! I cannot thank you enough for the recommendation, D. Now I will look for this chewy delight in any Asian restaurant that I patronize. I also ordered a trio of spring rolls. They were a crispy and tasty treat. Last time I came here, I devoured the beef sautéed noodle. It was succulent and prepared al dente. China Station is a Northern Chinese restaurant that specializes in hand pulled noodles. Black History Trivia: The first Africans in China arrived as gifts from the King of Kalinga in Java (pre-Islamic Indonesia) to the Tang emperor in 813 A.D. They were children who were treated as ornaments. Adult Africans were imported by Arab traders living in China. Some wealthy Chinese owned Black slaves and used them for hard labor or for work as doorkeepers. The Tang Dynasty's capital, Chang'an (present day Xi'an), was considered a golden age of cosmopolitan culture because foreigners redefined the Tang through dance, clothing, food, painting, religion and more. The Tang Dynasty ended in 907 A.D., leaving a legacy of racial integration. Yes, I got all this interesting info from Google, keyword: African slaves in China. Happy Lunar New Year everybody!!! It's the Year of the Tiger!!!! Let's all celebrate by eating some authentic Chinese food, lovingly prepared at the impressive China Station. read more

Probably the best restaurant near Stony Brook Campus. Great portion sizes for a great price and great quality of food. Walking in, the interior of the restaurant is not the most eye catching, but most definitely give off an authentic feel. The menu is quite abundant and there are various options to choose from and something for everyone. The food is always piping hot, fresh from the stove top and delicious. The portion sizes are amazing, enough for two maybe even three meals. Everything is pretty consistent, food is great every time. Ive tried the malatang, beef and tripe as well as the dumplings. The dumplings were juicy and flavorful. Its folded and fried in a traditional way with thick skin. The malatang definitely taste a lot healthier than the ones i get in Flushing but still good nonetheless. The beef and tripe is plump and juicy and i even enjoy the cabbage on the side. TLDR; great food, great portion sizes, great prices. A great bang for your buck read more

This spot is located in the middle of no where lol... it's disgusting never eat here! The 2 overweight brothers definitely put in that extra special seasoning, from touching raw foods & money without washing there hands, then handling your cook food for you to consume. They don't give a damn what they feed you. Everything is made with as poor quality ingredients as possible. Come on look how dirty the workers are. I have witnessed the cook wiping his nose with his hand, then grabbing the cook dumplings with his paws and placing it in a plate for a customer to eat. The health department so shut them down! The cook & the other cook aka cashier are the definition of Nasty & Dirty! I can guarantee they use the bathroom number 2, then touch all the food on propose, just so they can laugh inside, when they serve it to all the patrons that eat here! I have never seen a establishment like this! Like I said Long Islanders don't know shit about goods Chinese food! And that is me keeping it 100!!! read more

This is the second time we are trying a Chinese restaurant here in Long Island. Having being spoiled of great authentic places in Queens, we decided to give this place a try and also taper our expectation at the same time. Price wise, it is definitely more expensive than ones in Queens, but onto the food. I got pork with dried bean curd with rice which also comes with vegetable and an egg. The rice portion was too much and price wise, it was about $14. My wife got the beef with rice noodle which didn't come in the big fat rice noodle and was more so the thin ones. My wife enjoyed it a lot. We also got order of fried dumplings. My only complaint is it could have been more fried. Also they didn't give any dumpling sauce. All in all, I would give this place a very strong 3 stars and will recommend based on today's visit. Will definitely visit this place again. read more

Really solid Chinese Noodle house nearby Stony Brook University and I have so far visited twice. The price is pretty good, most menu items 10.50 or under; since this place is more of a noodle house I would suggest eating here rather than take-out. The Food: The food was really good, the noodles actually seemed handmade and you can see them make it in the open kitchen. Many places advertise as hand-pulled noodles while using instant ones, but this place is legit. The beef noodles in broth were really good, had it twice. The bok-choy pork bun wasn't very good and the menu mediocre outside of their hand pulled noodles. Anything Else: Service was fine and the food came out really fast. Beware of limited seating. read more

Delivery Review: 1) as a business you are supposed to be clear about tip and total payment. I was not impressed with the clarity let alone the customer service. 2) they're not clear about what ingredients they add in their soups. You could be a vegetarian and still not know what broth you're consuming. 3) I ordered a fishball handpulled soup extra spicy. It was hysterically spicy on a cold night so I was satisfied. However, there is so much oil that you cant consume the broth alone. Loved the noodles. 4) I ordered their scallion pancake and chicken dumplings. Both are low quality. The pancake was only refined flour in flat form. The skin of the dumplings are thick and inedible. They ask for a $5 tip for future notice. I believe they need to step up their game. read more

A lot of my friends really enjoy this restaurant. I have come here twice so far. It is great for Noodle soups and traditional Chinese buns. I generally am ok with the type of food but I do understand the hype backing this place. It is great for take out and seating in this restaurant is fairly limited seating. Their buns and noodles are hand made in the restaurant which is really unique. The environment is small and can only fit around 20 people. This place is good for taking out and I would not recommend going here for sit down at peak hours. My favorite aspect is this restaurant is close to campus and convenient when craving for authentic chinese food read more

China Station - Beef Tendon Soup 10-27-2016 - Noodles Near Me - Stony Brook, New York

This place is legit. For beef noodle soups, that is. The beef noodle broth is rich and deep in flavor and the noodles have the perfect bite. The shredded pork noodles broth was bland - stick to beef noodles and you won't be disappointed. The scallion pancakes was mediocre - not enough scallions and crisp. If you like limpy pancakes, these are for you. Fried dumplings are mediocre, again they felt like they've been sitting around too long after frying therefore losing that crispy bottom. The bottom line is stick to the beef noodles and this place is as authentic and flavorful as it gets. read more

Basically, if you don't mind the hot and crowded air and having to carry heavy plates and bowls of noodle around, this is definitely one of the best Chinese food restaurants around Stony Brook. I am just here in Stony Brook for a one-day conference and I am already in love with this place. First order then eat, $20 minimum for card payment. The atmosphere is warm, friendly and quaint, with bright lighting the TV broadcasting Chinese TV channels (when I was in it was broadcasting WOW games!). Could be very crowded during dining peak hours. Self-served, so carrying food and plates around is a must. Food is served at a quick speed. The food is definitely authentic and amazing. I ordered a beef tenderloin noodle soup and a pork bok-choy dumpling. The noodle soup came with hand-pulled noodles (you could see and hear prep cooks doing their noodles in the kitchen), firm with clear long noodle threads, but not too chewy. The broth was hot and rich with flavor, keeping all the ingredients well submerged in heat and taste. Beef tenderloin pieces were cooked and seasoned perfectly, soft with a melting taste of various spices. Also topped with fresh veggies. The portion was quite generous for a price of $8 with tax. The dumplings came with thin but solid dough skins and a nice huge portion of stuffing, for just $6 with tax. There are various soft drinks for sale. Many people also seemed to have ordered rice and fried noodle dishes. read more

So the reign of splendid noodle, champion of stony brook beef noodle soup , must be shared. This harmony of noodles is brought to us by the owners of the hugely successful Lao bei fang dumpling house in Elmhurst. It's a noodle invasion and we are the beneficiary. I've been here twice today and I still can't believe I'm in stony brook. Took just one phrase of the chefs thick northern Chinese accent to distinguish the authenticity. They literally had me at "Ni Hao". The beef noodle soup broth is dark and rich. Northern Chinese style. This is in contrast to the light soup from Lan Zhao (splendid noodle). The noodles are equally chewy and freshly made. Tons of bite. The beef is more tender and the tendons break apart. There is even pickled mustard greens. I was also surprised by the portion size. I confess I couldn't finish my massive bowl of beef noodle soup. Ughh manopause I came back after lunch and found this place Bumping at 9 pm on a Monday night. The parking lot was filled with luxury sports cars. Where the hell am I? I mean to come back and try the rest of the menu. In the meantime I think stony brook Has a new Chinatown around this tiny train station. This place definitely takes the cake. TIPS: delivery doesn't appear to be established no amex, accepts other CC crowded seating anticipate confusion after your meal when you realize you're not in flushing read more

OVERVIEW: One of the best authentic hand pulled noodle joints on Long Island. Even more, they offer a variety of other authentic as hell and delicious dishes you'll want to sample. One of them being, a spicy Sichuan specialty called mala tang. NOTE: This is a satellite location of Lao Bei Fang Dumpling House in Elmhurst, Queens. As such, this is essentially the same review. I have to say, however, the food is slightly better at the Queens location. WHAT TO ORDER: - Any hand pulled noodle soup. Super fresh hand made noodles cooked to chewy perfection, in a wonderful deep, complex, broth. My favorite versions being beef stew, pork, or vegetable. Also, add some of the sesame chili oil on the table my friend. - Fried pork and leek dumplings. Some of the best ever. Again, eat with the sesame chili oil provided on the tables. Wow wow. - Home style sauteed scallion pancakes (chao bing). Scallion pancake - cut into strips - sauteed with your choice of vegetables or meats. Uniquely delicious. - Mala tang. Listed as hot and spicy soup on the menu. Medely of crystal noodles, vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, potatoes, rice cakes, and who knows what else. You choose a topping such as beef, fish filet, etc from the list. All in a spicy red Sichuan style broth. (Medium spice level will blow your pants off). You have never experienced anything like this. Order it. - Sauteed hand pulled noodles. Add your choice of meats, egg, or vegetables. This will be the best lomein you've ever had brother. - Any of the cold salad appetizers. Try the shredded tofu in chili oil. DECOR / SERVICE: Plain tables. Cafeteria style. Friendly counter people. Food comes out fast. PARTING THOUGHTS: You're gonna love this place. read more

Delicious, rich noodle soups. The portions are huge. I tried the beef noodle soup and it is authentic (I'm Chinese so I should know). A lot of local Chinese residents come here too. I also had the spucy noodle soup with beef stew chunks and asked for a little spiciness. It was also good and had a lot of ingredients such as dried tofu, soft tofu, glass noodles, rice cake, black fungus, cabbage, mushroom and cucumber but the beef noodle stew still wins by a mile. Even though I asked for a little spiceness my nose went through several tissues. It was ridiculous; if you can't handle spice I would suggest getting it with no spiceness. You could always add the hot sauce oil that they have on the table if you want it spicier. You can also have it as a sauteed pot instead of noodle soup for $2 extra; I was told it's enough for two people. Compared to the other noodle restaurant in the area, China Station wins hands down. It gets pretty crowded during lunch when practically all the seats are filled. I believe there is a $10 credit card minimum. Also keep in mind that they close for a two hour break at 3pm. read more

This was the first suggestion for Asian food that showed up when I moved here. And boy. . . I was not impressed. First off, the place and the workers were very unclean. The place where you get hot sauce gave me a bad feeling in my stomach. The workers were wearing very dirty shirts wiping their hands all over themselves. As for the bao, it was so dehydrated I kept ripping off the hard as a rock covering until I got some remnants of soft texture- by then there was basically a 1mm remnant shell. It was not at all what I have experienced anywhere, and not in a good way. Next up, the fried dumplings. Let's just say when you cook the dumplings in a lower than temperature oil, the dumplings soaked every drop of oil it was in. It was very poorly cooked and I could only manage to eat half of them before feeling really unpleased with the amount of frying oil all over my mouth. The taste was very generic and had no ginger or even sesame oil involved. It was worse than any dumpling I ever cooked by myself that was frozen. Not going to go back. Actually, one of the workers dropped a Togo container that a patron asked for and gave it to the fellow anyways, and the man had to ask to change it. . . That is very gross. read more

I've made 3 stops in Long Island and every trip here has included a trip to China Station for just one thing: the beef sauté pot. My friend had told me about this and I demanded we get one the first time I came down and it didn't disappoint: it's loaded with hand-pulled noodles, beef, a variety of vegetables, and even larger variety of mushrooms, and lots of hot peppers. And it's huge. We've gotten multiple meals out of one (until the last one when we'd been day drinking at North Fork wineries with only a breakfast sandwich, so we annihilated it), so be prepared. The amount of food you get is beyond reasonable for the ~$20 price tag. I can't speak to the other food here but if it's anything like the sauté pot, you can't go wrong. Every time we've been in the building it's packed, and there is limited seating, so beware if you're dining in. read more

Terrible! Spring rolls were oily and only had cabbage inside. Veggie noodles were super basic, not very flavorful, and oily. The chicken and broccoli tasted nothing like your typical chicken and broccoli. The rice was so over cooked it was basically mushy porridge. The sauce was so salty and sweet and sticky. The chicken also felt mushy. Awful! Probably the worst Chinese food I've ever had. read more

Edited to add: I just got back from a meal at Spendid Noodle in Stony Brook. Far superior and you can choose knife-cut noodles if hand-pulled isn't your favorite. Go there instead of China Station. Hand-pulled noodles out East on Long Island? Sure! Unfortunately, the meal ended up being a disappointing one. I had such high hopes for this place, but alas, it wasn't meant to be. I ordered the beef tendon noodle soup. The broth was very one-dimensional and had no beefy flavor at all. I really dislike beef noodle soups where the soup is really more soy sauce and salt than actual beef stock flavor. The soup was so bad it couldn't be saved by decent hand-pulled noodles or the generous serving of beef tendon. I made the mistake of ordering the scallion pancake. They're made in the Chinese style (not the flaky Taiwanese style), just flat and doughy with no real layers or crispiness. This was made worse by China Station making them all and just letting them sit in a steam tray for hours. I assumed they'd at least put it back onto a pan to heat it up, but they essentially just cut up one that was already ready and served it to me. It was cold, doughy, chewy, and pretty awful. They also are known for making tea eggs. I guess my tea egg might have sat in the liquid for too long. It did not have the "cracks" I expect from a tea egg. Instead, the whole egg was pretty much soy sauce/tea colored and tasted extremely salty. The pricing here is also a bit more than I would expect to pay. I paid around $10 for a bowl of noodle soup. This is definitely not a substitute for Flushing. Go instead to the Lamp Noodle Soup place at Golden Mall in Flushing and pay $6.50 for an amazingly flavorful and full-bodied noodle soup instead of coming to China Station. read more

Definitely the better noodle shops here in Stony Brooks and vicinity in terms of quality. Given that its right by campus you really can't expect much in service at they cater primary to students here. Dining area is a bit small but I think doable for small groups less than 4 otherwise larger groups will probably have hard time here navigating the narrow and small spaces. The food is quite amazing and I definitely highly recommend the beef noodle soup if you can stand to eat different parts of the tendons and tripes. They really do a good job on the spicy cold dish too if you can stand the amount of spice they mix in the dishes and taste quite authenic. It was unfortunately they ran out of beef for the scallion pancakes but after trying them at another date I would prefer the tendons more for the chewiness. In terms of pricing I definitely think you get a lot more than what you pay for, huge bowl for only $7-8 but unfortunately they have a steeper minimum credit card balance requirement at $20 I guess to keep the overhead and prices low. $20 is a bit higher than the usual but for a bare-bone noodle shop I think its something of a fair exchange :) Also like some other reviews have mentioned they close shop from 3-5 daily and are quite strict about it. This was actually our second time here since we were turned away after arriving few minutes after 3pm. Definitely something you want to keep in mind. I'm glad we gave it another chance though these minor hoops are definitely worth to jump through to get some really delicious and filling bowls of noodles. read more

I still remember when this spot was a Dunkin Donuts....but it has been transformed into a hole in the wall, authentic Northern Chinese restaurant specializing (in my mind) in noodle soups, (although their menu is extensive). It's obvious that this place is catering to the high concentration of Chinese students at Stony Brook University, which is a GREAT thing. Everyone behind the counter is speaking Chinese. I went on a Sunday afternoon when it wasn't all that busy. I didn't find the restaurant overly clean....there was some dishes on the tables and it just had a general unkempt feeling, but honestly, I didn't care about that, all I cared about was the food. The person behind the counter was busy on the phone with a large order...speaking in Chinese. After about a minute, he was done and took my order.....Beef Noodle. After about 5 minutes, it was ready. The bowl was massive....and it had a ton of slices of beef, bok choi, and of course, the noodles. I didn't find it that spicy at all, so I dumped in some sriracha sauce, which gave it the necessary kick I was looking for. I did find the noodles tender, and while the beef was good, it wasn't exploding with flavor. Adding the sriracha helped. The broth was good & salty, but not too salty, in my opinion. Some people around me had ordered dumplings and fried rice, and it all looked very good. I'm looking forward to trying something different next time. read more

So... from the city and have a lot of Chinese friends. I despise Americanized Asian food and chinese food is no exception to this. My brother was raving about this "China Station" place in Stony Brook and all I can think about is a typical cheap Chinese food joint. Although I was right to an extent this food joint is the furthest thing from typical. They offered a number of Chinese dishes that were soup based. I got the beef noodle soup (number 26). There is a minimum of $20 dollar credit card limit. So bring cash. I watched them pull noodles in the background. They cooked my noodles and instantly iced it. The covered it beef broth, bok choy, a slices of meat. The steamy dish came out and it looked so good. The beef broth was very savory. It needed just a tad bit of the spicy oil they had sitting on the table. This gave a thick warm buttery taste to the broth. Definitely recommend the spice if you like a little bit of a kick. The atmosphere is reminescent of a small Flushing Chinese food joint. Small and quaint. The air even smells like the Asian supermarkets/restaurants with fresh produce. For me this was the type of food I was raised on. This type of food hits close to home for me. The crowd around me were also predominantly Asian. read more

Food is alright, this was my second time visiting this restaurant. The portions are much bigger than I remembered so come here hungry! I also ordered a veggie bun which was genuine and much bigger than I expected and extremely filling. My other dish was the wonton noodle dish, the wontons were a bit small and there weren't too many of them in the dish so I was a bit disappointed. The service was good, the guy wiped down the table for me before I sat down which I wasn't expecting. I will most likely come here again when I'm craving noodles and try out a new dish. read more

We ordered the wonton, beef tendon, beef tendon and tripe hand pulled noodle soups as well as the "Brown source" pork rice noodle soup. We loved all of the soups especially the tripe but we didn't really like the brown source soup as compared to the other dishes. When taking home leftovers, we were charged 25 cents per container which we were surprised by. Overall it's a good place that we will return to for more good soup. read more
