What a surprise! We stumbled into this wonderful rice noodle hot-pot-like restaurant. Packed it was this evening. Luckily a table became available in their bright and cheerful dining room as the five of us entered! Making a selection of what to order was a challenge. Though very friendly, I wish the server could have help us more with the menu. Still ... so fresh were my chosen ingredients to be mixed into Deng Ji's delicious piping hot broth. Flavorful yet clean tasting was their "House Special Guo Qiao Rice Noodle"! Already looking forward to my next time back. Trying their spicy broth it'll be then! CHEERS! read more

Deng Ji Restaurant - House Special Guo Qiao Rice Noodle - delicious! (07/24/26) - Chinese Near Me - Flushing, New York

This is the original Deng Ji, while their newer location is in Levittown. Although this is the original location, I have to say I prefer the newer location for the newer and nicer decor and also the food tastes a tad better. The service was fast. Only issue is parking, it can be a little tricky to find since its street parking only. read more

Smaller original shop than the one that closed closer to Main Street (40-09 Prince St Flushing, NY) but still the same good soup and side dishes. Cold appetizers very good, and the brown sugar rice cake excellent still. Soup may have some MSG in it, though, as we were very thirsty after. Yamakurage and the pig ears were very appropriately spiced. And no stomach discomfort after like at some places - they had good chili oil. Parking is street or you can try in the lot across the street (though it's more for the other stores there in the strip mall/grocery). read more

Qianqian was so nice and lovely to me. I came back to dine in 2nd time because of her, she provided very positive experiences and service mind. Noodles had great quality and yummy. I loved Seafood Guan Guan rice noodles and fried king mushroom/black stinky tofu appetizers. Highly recommended for any family or solo dining! read more

Wow, very comforting experience. Went around 9 pm on a Tuesday, yet the restaurant was nearly fully. Some in full pajamas, some with full families, all ages. So many elements of these dishes stand out but don't overpower each other. Extremely tender spare ribs. They were falling off the bone in the soup. Love the fried pork belly/bacon. Adds a savory, rich crunch to a soup. And easily some of the best rice noodles I've ever had--chewy but not bouncy. As a spice lover, I appreciate the table chili oil and Szechuan oil. Go easy on the Szechuan oil and build up as needed. Far off Main Street in Flushing, but if you're down to explore, this is a great find. read more

Came here on a whim on a chilly day and we were mind blown at how good the food was. Noodle soup came out in a clay pot that kept the soup warm the entire meal, papaya salad was interesting (I've only ever had Thai style, but this was also delish), and service was fast and prompt. Although the bbq skewers tasted good, it was a tad bit too oily. Also, the place is pretty small (table wasn't big enough for the amount we ordered) and they fill up pretty fast for dinner. Def would recommend to come on a cold winter day! read more

Came for a late dinner after seeing the comet and was craving rice noodle and decided to try this place out. The presentation of some of their dishes are really nice and overall the portions are big. The service wasn't bad and it was pretty packed at 8PM. Overall, would definitely come back for rice noodles in the future. read more

While it sits in the shadow of its far more popular sister location (#1), Deng Ji has been a consistent Yunnanese option that has won over locals and become another wrinkle in the luscious fabric of Flushing's rich regional Chinese food scene. They've come a long way since their early pandemic makeover. Even though the space is small, they've made it brighter, modern, and perfect for folks wanting a clean and contemporary environment. The tables are all aligned along the walls for maximum usage of the dining area. It's still a place for small groups and the solo diner. Sitting at the window is a hideous view of their massive HVAC. Yikes. Food wise, the name of the game is rice noodles (mixian). The guo qiao rice noodles come in a set and the guan guan rice noodles are more akin to a stew. It is authentic to their region and not terribly common in most parts of the country. The former is a bit like a bento box, a set with a number of items and makes for a perfect mini-variety situation. Something I found super interesting was that their skewer (肉串) section is noted as "shashlik" which is a term commonly used in Central Asia and Russia. I don't think what they offer here is any different than most Chinese skewer places, except a majority of it is vegetarian. Beyond pork belly, chicken, seafood, and beef, the rest are veggie friendly options such as fried chives, eggplant, green beans, and fried enoki. The rest of the appetizers are a little unmemorable with the exception of the deep fried tangyuan and the pumpkin cake. I would avoid the scallion pancakes and frozen shumai if it all possible. Price wise, nothing is too glaring and the service is solid overall. They are one of the few establishments on this block that I think have improved with time and is a perfect destination for a casual meal especially during winter months. _____________ (#1) Prince Street locale: https://www.yelp.com/biz/deng-ji-yun-nan-guo-qiao-mi-xian-flushing read more

always walked by this place and intrigued by all the little dishes they give you for the rice noodles. we finally stopped in recently to see what they're all about! the restaurant is pretty spacious and half full when we stopped in. there are lots to choose from, ranging from the different types of rice noodles, to skewers, to cold dishes, etc. we ended up trying these: -xiu cai guo qiao rice noodle: broth comes PIPING HOT and the toppings come in a separate tray. the staff will add all of them to the broth at a lightning speed. the presentation factor is pretty cool. the rice noodle had a nice broth and noodles were cooked nicely too. -spicy beef guanguan rice noodle: didn't seem too spicy but once you give it some time, you realize it's SPICY SPICY. huge portion with a good amount of beef. -sliced beef and ox organs in chili sauce: sliced beef and tripe in an authentic szechuan chili sauce. this was really good! -preserved egg with chili: not for the faint of heart but i do love preserved eggs (aka. thousand year egg). it has a nice rich, umami flavor. the dish comes in a mortar and pestle like set-up, which the staff will then mash the preserved egg and chili together. really nice seasoning, but the chili peppers were realllllly spicy. i think using less of it would be much much better. i think this place surprised me quite a bit. the apps were great and rice noodles were hearty and comforting. will return to try more non-spicy options! read more

Great noodle spot! They aren't on the main street of Flushing but still, all of their tables in the outdoor seating section was full and most of the tables inside as well. The tables are spread out at a good distance from each other so it was comfortable to dine indoors. They actually have a pretty big selection of items to choose from on their menu from a variety of appetizers (both hot and cold) to skewers and their most known entrée, the rice noodles. Even for their noodles, there's a lot of different ones to choose from too. I ordered the Beef Guo Qiao Rice Noodle and really enjoyed it! All of the ingredients are fresh and brought out in individual small plates within a box. Then, they bring out a pot of boiling soup in a pot meant to keep everything hot which they mix in the fresh ingredients (meat, veggies and all) and the noodles that are already cooked. I really enjoyed it! The noodles are yunnan rice noodles so they were thick round noodles but had the perfect texture of not being overcooked and still chewy. The portion was actually really big - there were lots of noodles and plently of meat and veggies (mostly mushrooms). The broth was also very rich and flavorful so it was really tasty! I love that it remained hot through the entire meal too. A great spot for yunnan rice noodles plus lots of other appetizer items and small plates to share. The price for noodles is a bit higher than other places in the area (since Flushing has lots of great cheap eats), and depending on what you get, but the portions are big and it's tasty so go give it a try! Plus, I don't know too many places that serve yunnan style rice noodles either. read more

My favorite restaurant. Very authentic, no chemical tasted in soup. Very flavorful and well priced.

Looking for delicious Rice noodles stewed in a hot clay pot filled with a healthy helping of mixed vegetables, seafood and meat? Look no further, Den ji is the place to go. The restaurant specializes in rice noodles and I can see why. The noodles are delicate as they are firm and the hearty seasoned broths are a perfect pairing of the two. We ordered the beef stew for two with spicy broth. Since I wasn't sure on the spice level. I had them dial it down on the scoville meter. They can adjust the spiciness level to accommodate your taste and spice/pain threshold. The beef stew was amazing and placed on top of a portable propane stove on your table which kept everything piping hot. The flame on the stove was adjustable too. The beef was literally fork tender. There were also cuts of tripe, tendon and mixed veggies to complete the meal For appetizers we ordered the chicken and lamb skewers. Perfectly seasoned with cumin and moist and tasty with the right ratio of fat mixed in. Credit cards are accepted and though they only have one bathroom, it's very clean. Service was top notch, but I noticed English is not the language of choice here, but the servers knew enough to understand you. Parking spots are difficult to find so go early to look for a spot. Do not park across the street at the strip mall and think you can get away with it. They will tow your car! Looking forward to return to try the other menu items read more

They deliver to my area once a week. Everything is well packaged with good portion sizes. Prices are higher than eating in, but I'm fine with that. I've tried: - 5/5 Classic Guo Qiao Rice Noodle for 2. This comes with a ton of protein, veggies, and toppings. It would easily feed 3. - 5/5 Beef Guo Qiao Rice Noodle for 1. Very tasty despite there being less variety of ingredients than the item above. Could feed 2 if you have some other dishes. It's very filling for 1. - 5/5 Dress Cold Rice Noodle. A different type of cold noodle than what I'm used to but still very tasty. Don't pour all the dressing in at one time. - 4/5 Diced chicken rice noodle. Chicken is less exciting, wouldn't order again. Personal preference. The cold appetizers are also good - pig's ear with chili sauce, aromatic chicken feet, seaweed. read more

This restaurant is tucked away among several other small eateries along Kissena Blvd, churning out yunnan mixian noodles in mini black clay soup jars. Piping hot broth on a cold night really hits the spot for me. There was one time when there was limited seats and the only available table was by the door. Everytime the door opened the cold air would hit us. But this really wasn't much of a problem, the noodle was hot and spicy enough for us to take off our coats and hope for the cold air to cool us down! Service: I believe there is only 1 younger waitress who can converse in English, so ordering can be difficult if she is not there. There is another older waitress who doesn't really speak standard mandarin, more of a mix of a different dialect---but she has a great memory. She gave us a membership card and promised us a free appetizer next visit, we did not visit here for 2-3 months and she still remembered! Food: Can definitely be on the spicy side, proceed with caution my spice intolerant friends!! Look for items that are not spicy, such as the seafood broth. The broths are all rich in flavor. Marinaded beef cold appetizer is thinly sliced beef shin mixed with a combo of herbs and spices. It had great flavor with a bit of a sting of spiciness but is slightly mellowed out by the peanut oil 4/5 Beef skewers had a cumin explosion, lots of juices flow out when bitten into 5/5 Chicken wings not as crisp as I want it to be, but there is definite good flavor! 3/5 Seafood jarjar rice noodle is recommended for those with low spice tolerance, good flavor with a mix of various seafood 4/5 Spicy beef jarjar rice noodle can vary in spiciness. I ordered this twice on different occasions and first time was tolerable but 2nd try I was sweating bullets! 4/5 Overall good place to check out! For those who haven't had Mixian noodles, it kind of reminds me of a white smooth spaghetti noodle but not as heavy/dense as normal spaghetti. A bit out of the way, but if you're in the area it's worth a try, I believe there are other locations as well. read more

FYI: they have a membership system that rewards you with free drinks or side dishes! PROS: the interior of this place is adorable, don't let the exterior and the surrounding area fool you. We started with some lamb skewers which were excellent. Flavor and seasoning were both spot on and the lamb was cooked nicely. Not too tough and still had some softness to it. The seasoning does lend itself to be a bit on the spicy end but nothing too terrible. The flavor of the broth in the noodle soup we ordered was delicious. It tasted rich and hearty without being too heavy. Had a nice overall pork flavor to it as well. The ingredients they dumped into the soup right before it hit the table was good and the texture of the rice noodles were perfect. Hefty portions and overall great meal that warms you up in all the right places. CONS: for starters, this place is smaller than what their popularity and clientele demands so while we were eating, people were piling up near the door and blocking that area. The menu was also 95% in chinese. I really don't think I saw much, if any, English on there whatsoever minus like the occasional pinying. It also kinda looked like we got jipped of some promised ingredients too (or got very little) cause i really didn't see much meat in there. Everything else also just sunk to the bottom so you really have to work to get a bit of everything. Otherwise, expect a lot of protein left over at the end. read more

I'm kinda mixed about the restaurant. We had four people and wanted to try different things not just the noodle pot. We ordered the noodle pot for two. The waitress turns to the two other people at the table and said if they are ordering that what are you ordering? You can't just order that and split. That kinda left a bad taste in my mouth. We haven't finished our order...We then also ordered the wood ear cold dish, scallion pancakes, spicy thousand year old egg dish, and cold seaweed dish. We asked if we can order 2 extra noodles and the waitress promptly said no. But left no reason so we asked why. She said you can only add one to the noodle pot. She saw that we weren't satisfied with answer so she added that extra noodle will change the flavor of the dish and that the noodles will get soggy. Then she said oh it's policy that you can't order two. So what was it? Policy or just random excuse? On to the food... the noodle pot was Not bad, there was a lot of random ingredients like Chinese 'snow ear,' wood ear, sea cucumber, fried pork skin, fish balls, chicken, bean sprouts, egg etc... three portions of noodles was definitely not enough for four people but the other dishes filled us up. The dish was simple and tasty. I really like the wood ear cold dish, the spicy fermented egg dish was flavorful but super spicy. The scallion pancakes were too oily. The seaweed was okay. read more

Noodle soup is always my comfort food especially in the raw weather day to keep me warm. I recommend 2 bowl of noodle, one spicy and one not spicy. The Xiu Cai Guo Qiao Rice Noodle, not spicy, F2 on menu. Served noodle, meat, vegetables on aside and soup come separate. Put meat into the boiling soup then vegetables then noodle. Ready to enjoy. Lamb Guanguan Rice Noodle, spicy, G7 on menu. Make sure you tell waitress of what level of spicy you can take. The noodle with all ingredients are served in a clay pot with boiling hot soup. Both are tasty, I believe there's NO MSG. Also tried barbecue: lamb, tofu, pepper stuffed with sausage. Minimum 3 for order. All delicious! read more

Deng Ji Restaurant - Fish soup and it's spicy - Chinese Near Me - Flushing, New York

I understand with the whole covid, dining experience is as it use to be. With limited space dining outside on the streets and store fronts. Ive heard plent of good reviews about this place hence i wanted to try it out. But before all this, the service toward their customers is by far bad. I arrived with a party of three waiting for a table being told there is one party ahead of us of 2 and the wait would be quick. As time progressed more parties arrive waiting for a table. As one table freed up, instead of asking/seeking us to see if we were willing to give another party the table that just freed up to a party of 4 because another table that was smaller just freed up and could accompany 2-3. They automatic just gave the table to the party of 4. If service is that inconsiderated of their customer, how would you know if the food they prepare is properly prepared as well. read more

This is probably one of the worst restaurants I have been to in years. Pictures on the menu are deceiving. Menu doesn't explain what's in their signature noodle (first 3 pages of menu). We asked the waitress to explain the differences of their signature dishes, but she was impatient and annoyed. The waitress, probably is the owner, recommended the most expensive dish to us. She gave us attitude when we decide to order something different than what she recommend. Aside from their service, I was very disappointed in their "classic" noodle set for two people. There were only one tiny piece of beef slide, 2 tiny pieces of chicken slide, bunch of fish balls and some noodles. Not worth $22. read more

Pretty space, attentive service, and the food was flavourful without being overly spicy or salty. My family and I visited on Christmas Day. The restaurant was busy when we showed up but after minor confusion, we were seated quickly. They took our order and within minutes, the appetizers showed up. Garlic cucumber, pig ear, chicken feet, all well balanced flavors. We ordered the lamb pot - very spicy but the type of spice that has depth in taste. A seafood soup with beautiful presentation and a whole chicken stew where the broth was warm and inviting. As we ate, I assume, the head server came by periodically to make sure the dishes were made to suit our palate. From the outside, the space doesn't look like much but walk inside, you'll be in for an excellent meal that won't break the budget. read more

I'm a regular costumer here. Their service is not as good as their food.

Totally fine with that, as long as they do the order right. Guess what? when I picked up my order, the chief put extra white noodles in my sautéed chicken noodles... Anyway, I'm not gonna come back.

This place is new. It just opened on June 21st, 2015. This place used to be called Lucky Noodle House. We stopped by here for dinner on a Monday evening. The place was busy but we were seated immediately. They don't serve everything on their menu yet as of now. They offer 20% discount for their grand opening special. The service here is just great! Our waiter was very polite & helpful. Our waiter mentioned that this place serve Hunan cuisine. We got the spare ribs noodle soup & the hot n' spicy noodle soup. The noodle here is rice noodle, not the typical hand pulled noodle. The food was good. The portion is a bit small. In our opinion, their noodle soup is only good for snack or you might want to add some appetizer to fill you up. If you want to ask question about the menu, it's best to come here with someone who can speak Mandarin because the waiter here barely speaks English. If you happen to come here & you can't speak Mandarin, well, no big deal, you can always just point at the menu. The menu has both English & Chinese. Definitely worth stopping by! read more
