Stopped by Dun Huang after a long travel day and it really hit the spot. We ordered a mix: signature Lanzhou noodles, Dun Huang fried noodles, Chinese hamburger, and lamb pilaf. Everything came out great. The Lanzhou noodles were the highlight--fresh, chewy, and really comforting. Fried noodles had a lot of flavor, and the Chinese hamburger was a nice addition. Lamb pilaf was also solid and filling. The place has a nice ambiance and the staff were friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, a really satisfying meal when we needed it most. read more

I have not tried here, but am looking forward to! This is a review to negate the COMPLETELY irrelevant review by Teresa S: until they remove it, here this is: This is completely irrelevant. They have every right to smoke. I'm a non smoker who hates smoke. But it's not their fault, nor do they have the right to impinge upon others' rights. Until this changes, they are screaming at the wrong people. read more

My friends came here on a Sunday evening around 6:30 and there was no wait to be seated for a party of 4. There were only a few people in the restaurant at the time and it was recommend to us as one of the more affordable restaurants in Long Island city. Looking for some spice, I ordered the handpulled noodles and ordered the spicy chilli oil spill noodles and also spilt a side of spicy lamb skewers with a friend. I would note that most of this menu is using a beef base but there are limited handpulled noodle dishes that are vegetarian or don't use a beef base. The service was nice and the food was out within 15 mins, although our noodles arrived before our lamb skewer appetizers. The noodles were nice and warm and despite the spice logo next to the dish on the menu, I was surprised about how perfect the spice was in the dish. It was not covered with pepper corn or too spicy to consume. In fact it was quite mild but extremely flavorful. I would definitely order again. The lamb skewers came out nice and warm and only having 4 made me wish I ordered more. Overall, I was surprised by the level of flavor and mild but tasty spice levels on the dishes here. Great and relatively affordable handpulled noodles that I will be coming back for to try more. read more

It's been a while since I last came to Dun Huang, so was excited to try it here especially as it's a location I've never been to. It wasn't too busy when I came here at 7:30, but more and more people came over time. I had their braised beef noodle soup and their Chinese burger. Service was really fast, especially the noodle soup! I think I got it in less than 5 minutes so they definitely prep it before hand. I still really enjoy the dish. The burger did take a bit longer me, probably 10 mins or so and I got the lamb. They did say lamb maybe a bit spicy, but it wasn't too bad for me. read more

The food is good here, but for the standard in NYC these days, it's hard to say it's excellent food. The prices are good, and the noodle soup, appetizers, are all tasty. The service is quick, and the atmosphere is casual. And as long as it's not busy, they will let you stay and not kick you out. But it feels on the cheaper end of Chinese food, both in the food itself and the vibes of the restaurant. read more

I rarely write bad restaurants reviews as I'm generally sympathetic to how difficult it is to run a restaurant business. That said, my order today from Dun Huang had crossed the red line. It was an ubereat delivery order and my delivery driver actually arrived earlier than the expected time (~20mins) and carried my order in an insulated bag. However, all my dishes came ICE COLD and felt like they were taken out from the fridge (both the flat noodles and the two side dishes)!! For context, it's a pretty nice sunny day and the temperature here was about 70 degrees today! read more

Cheap eats. We were heading to the airport and stopped here to grab lunch when they opened. It was cold outside and they were not quite open yet. They let us wait inside which was nice. Cucumbers have a slight spicy to them. So because for kids. Everything was good. You can choose your noodles which is what we love. read more

Everything hit the spot for me at this location. The soup was such a comforting hug in the cold weather. Right when I walked in the first thing I noticed was how clean and spacious everything was, friendly attentive staff. My party ordered the beef skewers the beef noodle soups and thinly potato sliced salad. I LOVE the thinly sliced potato salad. I would also point out that I enjoy the East coast locations better than the west coast locations of Dun Huang. read more

I got takeout from Dun Huang on a Saturday evening as I was looking for a good noodle soup in the area. Their most popular dish is the #1 signature beef noodles. I noticed they had a second menu with new items, including a spicy Mala noodle. The service was good, the hostess took our takeout order and let us make modifications. You get to choose your noodle size. The place had a few tables full and a few empty, it would be great to walk in here for dinner. All indoor seating vibes. The mala noodle was so spicy, and it was difficult for me to finish! I love spicy food but this one was no joke. It was good though, I think I would go back but order their signature with chili oil on the side to control the spice level read more

Dun Huang - Menu - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Dun Huang is a modern, cute, casual space that offers a to-the-point menu, very good size and portions, and will not break the bank in nyc. The stars of the menu are the noodle dishes with some ability to customize noodle size. There are also a few other chinese classic entree options as well. I ordered the Zha Jian Noodles, the noodles were super bouncy and chewy which I loved. The sauce was savory and filling and paired well with the fresh cucumbers. A very simple dish that hit the spot but not a super strong flavor overall. Service was super fast (received noodles almost immediately after ordering) and friendly. read more

The perfect meal on a cold and rainy day. It's quick, affordable, and consistent. You really can't go wrong with any of the noodles. I got the Signature Lanzou Beef Noodles ($13) and the Lamb Dry Noodles ($13). Both were delicious but i'd say the dry noodles were a standout for me because it was so flavorful and had a good kick to it. I also love that you can pick out the type of noodle you want for each dish! There's a good amount of seating but I could see how it could get packed pretty quick. Highly recommend takeout if you're coming during a lunch or dinner rush. I did feel like the service was a bit rushed even though it was pretty empty when I went, to the point where they wanted to clear our plates before we were even done. read more

Dun Huang - N1. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, lamb dry noodles - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

We had 2 of their signature dishes, and their kelp salad appetizer. The service was friendly, fast, and the food outstanding. Most of the dishes seem spicy which is great for us. The have lamb, beef, and pork, I think I saw one or two vegetarian options. Its my second time here and my kids first time. The noodle soup really hit the spot. My kid doesn't usually eat beef and he says "That was AMAZING. It's worth a walk of 3000 miles". Definitely worth the train ride and the walk. read more

I haven't written a review here which is surprising because this is the one place my partner and I go at least once a month. A reliable spot that has delicious food!! We normally do pickup/takeout option, but we've dined in several times before too. It's funny how quiet it can be inside because everyone is so busy chowing down and concentrating on their yummy food. They serve lemon water too which is nice. When doing a takeout order, it takes no more than 15 minutes (sometimes as fast as like 6minutes) for our orders to be ready... they're FAST. The beef noodle soups are always great and very comforting. The apps are good too; a good amt of things have some spice, so just be aware. We've gotten the eggplant and cucumbers as apps which are great for sharing. The chicken is good too and a hefty portion that can certainly be shared with two people as well. The "Chinese hamburgers" are also good - I preferred the stewed pork the best as the others are cooked spicy. Our most recent favorite entree is the beef stew with tomato. Delicious sauce and such tender beef meat. Huge portion. Love love love Dun Huang! read more

Solid food. Functional space. No frills really but overall it's clean and comfortable. Service is quick and efficient. Food skews spicy. That should be obvious. But there's complexity underneath the spice. And I love how lamb is a big part of the menu. Mutton was nice and gamey. Spiced beef, mouth watering chicken and pan fried noodles were all done well. Will have to come back for the Lanzhou noodles. read more

Yelp tip to check in and show the waitress for an eggplant salad!! I really wanted noodles and Dun Huang was a convenient spot close to Grand Central, but away with some tourists. It was super open around 2pm on a weekend, and service was very quick. The broth left more to be desired, but is a quick and easy spot to grab a bite. I just got the langzhou la mien which was decent, but not great. read more

This was a cute little noodle place with heartwarming soup. I wish I added more things to it cuz the baseline is actually not that much food--just radish and some meat. The soups were pretty much ready immediately, which means if you're hungry, they definitely got you with fast service. read more

(Overall: B) - Danhuang seems to be quite a reasonable option for relatively affordable and quick Chinese eats with a modest interior. The food seems to be flavorful and authentic, and would recommend overall. (Eggplant Salad: B) - The cut side of the eggplant is able to absorb the flavors quite nicely; however, unlike a cucumber or some other vegetable that is able to maintain a crunch. Nevertheless, this is a simple dish that works quite nicely as an appetizer. (Mouthwatering Chicken: A) - Flavorful chicken that has depth of flavor built from both the poaching liquid and the sauce on top. (Sweet and Sour Ribs: C) - These ribs develop some pleasant flavors, but for some reason these riblets do not have much meat attached to the bone. (Lanzhou Noodle Soup: B) - The noodles have beautifully developed flavor and pair well with the soothing soup that is primarily white pepper and msg. The few slices of meat and daikon are tender and reasonable given the pricepoint. -- Food: +1 Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: E Menu: +1 Overall: +2 B Insta/Beli: @amei_eats read more

Overall, I was really happy with the food although I got the dry noodles and I didn't realize they'd be all stuck together in a clump. But once you stir them up a bit and get the oil mixed in it's fine. My only other issue is I'm not great with chopsticks and all the lamb fell to the bottom but that's my issue. I should ask for a fork. The service was excellent. Overall good experience. read more

Dun Huang - Fermented D1. Milk Egg with Fermented Rice Soup - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

One of my favorite Chinese spots for some quick and delicious homestyle noodles! My go-to order is always the N1 Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, which always hits the spot no matter the time of day, but hits especially well when the air is brisk outside. I'll sometimes add a Chinese Hamburger if I'm particularly hungry, which pairs flawlessly with the noodle soup. Service is probably the quickest and most attentive I have seen in NYC, and prices are still reasonable. 5 stars! read more

Dun Huang - N1. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

I've passed by this place numerous times since it is near work. It's hard to spot since there's scaffolding on top of the restaurant. I decided to take out and not dine in even though there's plenty of indoor seating. There's plenty of options depending on what you like to eat, but I believe they're known for their noodles. I ordered the Zha Jiang noodles to go. It's dark bean paste with diced up pork and other ingredients. You can choose how you would like your noodles, I chose regular style. It would've been different if I had it at the restaurant as the noodles wouldn't have been stuck together and harder to eat. I would like to go to the restaurant and dine in next time. read more

I love how authentic and comforting this noodle shop is in Midtown! The Lanzhou noodle was my favorite. The broth is super flavorful and the spice adds a fun kick to the dish. They allow you to choose the noodle thickness as well. I also ordered the monstrous chicken plate. It was a very generous serving of chicken with flat noodles underneath. The noodles were okay but the chicken was flavorful and tender. If you're looking for dessert, they have a fun milk, egg dish that reminds me of what you'd get in China. Incredibly authentic and this place is the perfect spot to come to on a cold day! Affordable prices and delicious. I highly recommend. read more

Dun Huang - N1. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup - Chinese Near Me - New York, New York

Dun Huang is one of my go-to spots for cozy food. Their signature Lanzhou beef noodle soup hits the spot every time (especially with their extra wide noodles). I also deeply appreciate that all of the Manhattan stores have a promo going on for customers which combat price increases in which their signature noodle soup is $9.95 instead of $13. It goes to show that they care about their customers and I love supporting them for this. For this noodle soup, you can ask for the non-spicy option and then ask for chili oil on the side so you can add as much or as little as you want. Also highly recommend their kelp salad and mung bean jelly noodles! Service was quick and friendly. read more

Very rude staff. The guest in front of me of Asian ancestry had a chicken dish Looked great. Order same thing, chicken was darker,sour,dry and clearly old. Got refund.

This place is mediocre at best. Came here due to the high reviews. It is a cheap and cheerful sorta place by GCT. Upon ordering, I was disappointed in the poor quality ingredients and poor taste.

Absolutely one of my favorite places to come for lunch when I don't want to cook while working from home. I've never had an issue being seated even during prime lunch time, not because it's not good, but because the food comes out so fast they're usually able to move customers along pretty quickly. Menu has enough variety while being simple, though I always order the signature because it is DELICIOUS. The wide noodles are the perfect texture and size for me (not too absurdly wide but still chewy) and I absolutely love the huge amounts of cilantro they put in that gives the soup a bite of flavor -- doesn't make it feel too oily, as a lot of spicy Chinese soups do. read more

This is the perfect place to go to on those cold, wet dreary days when you want some comforting no frills authentic Chinese food. A couple of co-workers and I decided to come here for an early dinner last week. Like most Chinese restaurants, the food came out super-fast. We ordered: Chinese Hamburger with beef--thick cut marinated beef stuffed in a pita-like bread. This was just okay. I think I probably should have gotten the lamb instead. The beef was tender, but the burger could have fared better with some kind of sauce or gravy Zha Jiang Noodles--loved the thin, soft, chewy noodles coated with the ground pork stew. The sliced cucumbers were a nice texture contrast and gave the dish a nice fresh element. This came in a large bowl, and we all thought it would be good to share between us three but actually we probably should have ordered another noodle dish. We devoured this one pretty quickly Sweet and Sour Short Ribs--Bite sized short ribs tips. This was a pretty good dish. The meat was crunchy and sweet from the sauce and went perfectly with rice Hot Chicken Wings--was delicious. It had a really crispy coating and very juicy meat. It wasn't all that spicy, just a slight heat. A great appetizer; next time I would probably order two of these Oxtail stew--this dish was part of their daily special and it was our favorite dish of the night. It was a very generous portion of oxtail stew with potatoes and corn. The oxtail was so tender and delicious, and the sauce perfectly enhanced the meat. When we went, the restaurant wasn't too crowded, and the staff were so nice. We were so comfortable and had a great time dining here. I really appreciated that they didn't rush us out even though we stayed almost three hours! I saw online that they have several locations in Manhattan and Queens. Will have to try the one on the UWS near work asap. read more

I really enjoyed everything I had here. The plum juice is a must try if you've never had before, it's one of my favorites to get at Chinese restaurants. I highly recommend the soup, and the spicy chili noodles. The dumplings are good as well but chive heavy. The service is very quick and the portions are large. They have a decent amount of seating and you can usually just walk in. It's reasonably priced for being in midtown and so close to grand central. read more

This local chain is consistently good for Chinese foods. They have great noodles and I ordered lamb this time. The check in order eggplant is flavorful.

This is a great spot to have a casual meal if you're in the area and craving noodles! I came with a couple of friends and ordered: + monstrous plate chicken (chicken was very tender and the broth mix had great flavor) + sweet and sour short ribs + cucumber salad (was a refreshing side item alongside the spicy dishes) + cold noodles (my favorite item that we got - loved the sesame and spiciness, and the cold chicken that came with it had a great bouncy chew) + signature Lanzhou beef noodles (their specialty, worth a try) We tried their wide and regular noodles and both were delicious, very evidently fresh and made in house and came served with scissors to cut. The staff was also very kind and attentive and I'd definitely recommend this as a spot for a group dinner. read more

Amazing hand pulled noodles and "Chinese Hamburgers". Loved everything about this place, down to the very friendly staffer who spoke Mandarin with me. I highly recommend the Steamed mutton which is flavorful by itself, but comes with a sauce too. The hamburgers can be stuffed with either pork, lamb, or beef. Came out super fresh and tasty. These guys really know what they're doing. You're missing out by not coming here. read more
