Great spot in the Edison plaza for some freshly made hand pulled noodles. I also ordered their beef skewers and they were absolutely delicious and tender with so much flavor. This place does get crowded. Food was brought out quick and servers were friendly read more

Dunhuang - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Hand made noodles and you can get extra orders for a small fee. The soup is very flavorful, lots of white pepper and prickly ash pepper oil but more balanced this time. A few different ways to make the noodles, too from very thin to very thick depending on how you like it. Beef in the soup was lean and good, too. Get their signature classic, N1 (spicy) or N1.1 (not spicy). Tea was very good, a barley tea? Service pretty hit & miss, though. read more

It is situated at the hippest and most bustling part of Edison NJ; however, Dunhuang is tugged away in the far end corner, out of sight. So the fact that the restaurant was almost at capacity during our visit spoke volumes. It meant the clientele knew the place. Armed with recommended dishes from my brother, we were unphased by the vast offerings in the menu and placed order in no time: C8. Cold Skin Noodles $9.95. This is a unique appetizer from Northern China. This was the second time in my life that I tried this dish. It was far better than my first experience. It was refreshingly cold, and the flavor wasn't as heavy as it looked. The texture of the noodle was elastic and springy, very pleasing to the mouth. Highly recommended. N1. Signature Lan Zhou Beef Noodles $10.95. I guarantee you will see at least one bowl of this noodle soup on every table. While I have had this dish many times through Chinatown and Flushing, the broth had to be one of the best. The amount of protein left much to be desired, however. Only 4 thin slices of beef, that's a bit pathetic. Other than that, all other aspects were on point. N8. Pan Fried Noodles (lamb) $16.95. OK, don't be fooled by the name - we were. We love pan fried noodles from Hong Kong / Cantonese restaurants - that thin crispy fried noodles with thick flavorful sauce and meat poured over it... No, this was stir fried, essentially a lo mien. So this was a disappointment, but the saving grace was that we picked lamb for the protein. When was the last time you had lamb lo mien? Service was excellent. The wait staff entered orders on their hand held tablets, and checked out with them as well. But, remember to bring cash to get a 3% discount. read more

Normally I don't write bad reviews, this time I compelled to do it. Food tastes good, authentic, so I was excited to try it. For snack I figure to tried the famous lamb burger/sandwich. It was on the expensive side, $7/ea. It was on a dry bun with less than an ounce of mince lamb. This was smaller than a McDonald hamburger. Very disappointing. I hope owners can fix this. read more

Always a comfort pick! Great food for a good price!! I've been coming here since day one when they only had one table in the middle. I always get the lanzhou beef noodle soup here and it's consistently amazing! The soup is always so hard warming and yummy. Their noodles are hand pulled and you can watch them make it. And, best part, they're under $10! I also love their cucumber salad, fried chicken, and spicy dry noodles. The dry noodles would be infinitely better with meat though. The service is always fast and attentive. All the waiters and waitresses are always nice. It can sometimes be a bit noisy but that's because the place is quite small. Overall, consistently a great experience! Location: Festival Plaza Rating: 10/10 read more

Braised Beef Noodles was delicious. Clean beef noddle broth flavors but still good. I really like the fresh noodles. I ordered regular thickness. My boyfriend prefers the wide noodles. The Multi-Spiced Beef W. Cilantro is seasoned perfectly with a little kick to it. And the beef is tender. Super quick service. read more

Dunhuang - N2 Braised Beef Noodles C5 Multi-Spiced Beef W. Cilantro - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

SUPER affordable meal for ~$10! They have a wide variety of noodle items, mainly soup base - my favorite is the Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles with thin noodles. I love that you can even customize the thickness of your noodles - it ranges from thin thick. All of their items are made in house, where you can even see the chef hand pulling your noodles through a small window. Everything tastes super fresh here, and in this economy, absolutely worth it. The only thing I would say is that I wish they had more options for the summer (ex. cold noodles), as most of their items are best suited for the winter (like noodle soup, hot dumplings, etc.). Note - if you pay in cash, you get 5% off! :) read more

I came here for the first time w/ a friend on a Saturday afternoon, and there was no wait. We quickly got seated and even quickly received our food. The noodles tasted great, and the broth was very flavorful. It was a pretty casual noodle dish -- nothing fancy. For what it is, this restaurant is quite good. I would come here again. read more

Quick and delicious handpulled noodles with hot broth - yes please! I like how you can customize the noodle type to your preference. The spicy beef slices and cold potato dishes were great little appetizers and were full of flavor. Service is efficient and the restaurant itself is super clean and well organized. There's a little glass window by the kitchen that allows customers to watch the noodle master make the noodles which is pretty cool! read more

Came here a couple of times. Their beef skewers are unbeatable. The dishes derive from the north part of China. The restaurant has many seats, but sometimes can be very busy. The ambiance is like any other restaurant. They do however have a cool window where you can see the noodles being made from scratch. Great little thing to keep the kids occupied. Service great but the food is even better. The noodles, you can pick how wide or how thin you want them. I usually get the wide flat noodles with the signature dish. It might actually be BYOB too. Double check on that. If you're in the area, definitely check them out and get the skewers. read more

came here twice, so i'm combining both visits. Their noodle is good and cheap, nothing more you can ask for under $10! The appetizers were alright. we found the fried items were too oily (fries, fried bread). they just soaked in a lot of oil. so I would avoid getting those. It is the restaurant tucked in the corner, easily missed if you aren't looking. I will definitely return for more noodles!!! read more

Even though I've been here around the time it opened 5-6 years ago, I recently rediscovered the place and has become by my new favorite restaurant. We've been coming here once a week over the last month or so. I always get the liangpi, aka cold noodles, which you don't seen often in Chinese restaurants. These are the traditional cold noodles from the region, made from rice flour, and dressed in a peanut sauce. It's my absolute favorite things to eat. The other must order dish is the lamb skewers, perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The hand pulled noodles are always a big hit, you can customize the thickness and they come in clear or spicy broth. Service is always prompt and friendly. Moreover, the food comes out extremely fast. Always a great experience here. read more

Love this place as they have hand pulled noodle and you can watch them hand pull the noodles right at the window which is amazing for adults and kids to watch! The food comes out nice and quick. The servers work really fast and our waitress was super nice. She was helpful in providing recommendations. She didn't make me feel rushed to order as most Chinese establishments tend to do. She just made it known that she was ready for us when we were ready. They are great about having children utensils and plates/bowls available. I love that they provide a pair of scissors without asking. The restaurant is clean and tidy. I have been here a few times now and brought a few different groups of people and no one has ever left disappointed. Great for small groups and very accommodating for larger groups as well! read more

The delicious lamb skewers here make it hard to share 10 with a group of people. This place is nestled away at the end of the shopping center which makes it a little hard to find but the food here is pretty good. The menu is also pretty simple so that was nice. Service was fast and the waiter was attentive to ensure we had water or tea. The beef noodle soups here were also pretty good and hits the spot especially on a cold winter night in this area. read more

My wife and I stopped in for a weekday lunch. Every table was seated, but the turnaround was quick (5-10 min). Watching a chef make the hand pulled noodles made it easy to pass the time! The staff was curt and a bit lacking in warmth, but efficient at taking orders and clearing tables for new guests. Whatever was lacking in service was easily made up for by the delicious meal. We both ordered the braised beef noodles. I went with thick noodles and Kiana opted for regular. She made the better choice. The regular noodles are the perfect thickness for both absorbing the flavor of the broth without becoming soggy and giving you something to sink your teeth into. And how about that broth? It was aromatic and rich in flavor with some enhancing spice. The beef was tender as anything. I only wish there was more. We also ordered five lamb skewers. The meet was cooked well, but we thought the seasoning was too heavy handed. The cumin was overpowering. The hand pulled noodles made the meal, and I look forward to trying their signature beef noodles next time around! read more

Hubs have been wanting to give this place a try for a while and we finally made it here. We got here for an early dinner and got immediately seated. The restaurant is small and comfortable, with a wall depicting a Chinese map and posters hanging on wooden walls near the back. Beige lamps dangle from the ceiling above the tables and the name of the restaurant can be seen by the front counter. Next to the counter is the drinks refrigerator as well. We've ordered the following: N4- Tomato egg noodles, which is egg and tomato with savory and sour house special sauce. It had eggs and Hubs loved it but he wished it wowed him a little more. H14-Pork and Chinese Cabbage Dumplings. We got 15 and daughter LOVED it so much and has been hankering it ever since. She wanted to have the whole order to herself and was very disappointed that she couldn't . Hubs said that the presentation looked very plain but it was delicious. It was simply poached but flavorful. E8- Dunhuang Special Roast Leg Lamb, which is roast lamb leg with house special sauce. Hubs thought it was tasty and liked all the accoutrements. He said that he wished that he could've ordered the meat rarer. E4- Monstrous chicken plate, which has chopped chicken, sautéed with fried onions, peppers, potatoes and tomatoes, covered in a savory spicy gravy. This was spicy, just the way we liked it. H2- Mo Crispy Flatbread, which is handcrafted Mo, pan seared with cumin, peppercorn and dry chili. We were disappointed in this because we didn't expect it to look like this. We were expecting something closer to scallion pancakes but this looked like French toast sticks that's been deep fried and overly seasoned with cumin and oil. We probably wouldn't get this again but we would take it if it was a free order. This took a while in coming out that we thought they forgot it. Service was quick and efficient. We told the server our peanut allergies and he immediately told us which items to avoid. Will definitely return when in the area to try other items on the menu. read more

Delicious Lan zhou noodle place in Edison. This is a chain- I've been to the one in flushing too and it tastes the same! Very consistent taste. The broth is one of the best broths I've ever had. It is just seasoned perfectly. Prices are incredibly cheap here. $10 for a bowl of noodle soup! The noodles are all hand pulled! Very busy restaurant located in the HMart plaza. They just opened 2 years ago so the place still looks relatively new and clean. Staff are friendly and very attentive. Would definitely come back! read more

Place is fire for the few things we get. Not everything is great as I lay out below. Honestly only came here the first time bc the tasty moment line was ridic and we have 2 littles, 5 and 7. We have been here a bunch since due to ease and great food. Food/service is crazy fast. Most recent experience, no joke, 4 dishes out in under 5 minutes and i'd guess significantly under. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle soup. 10 stars. (Out of 5) Lanzhou Beef Noodle soup, 5* Mung bean noodles, 4*. Tasty moments are on another level. Pan fried noodles not spicy 5* for littles. Wood ear mushroom 4+* Other items we have had: Cucumber salad is good. Spice oil spill noodles are ok. Lacking something for me to get again, prefer x'ian famous foods much more. Mo crispy flatbread - I make much better at home, tasted old and dry. Dumplings we've had were only ok. read more

Lovely spot. Nan Zhou in Philadelphia is my gold-standard of hand-drawn noodles, but I decided to give DH Noodles a try, and I'm so glad I did! The food is excellent - the texture and flavor of the noodles is terrific. I tried the pan fried noodles with chicken, and was really pleased with my choice. I also ordered the potato salad appetizer which was delightful. The staff were polite, friendly, and efficient, and the restaurant was quite cozy. I'll definitely be back!! read more

Their noodles have amazing texture and the broth is soo flavorful. I came in with my boyfriend and another friend for food to go and they were super helpful and gave us constant updates on our food status while we waited. Despite us not being able to eat the food for a while after taking it out, the quality was still mindblowing and I finished my noodles in record time. They provided ample meat for each dish and the meat was tender too. read more

Good noodle option tucked away in a corner of the H Mart shopping plaza. The menu consists mainly of noodles and dumplings, although they have some other items available like skewers. Since it was my first visit, I ordered the signature lanzhou beef noodles. It was a fairly decent size bowl given the price of $10 (that said I was still a little hungry after finishing). Found it to be very flavorful, with a hint of spice. Noodles were nice, although I could have done with more. Reasonable amount of beef. We also ordered the cold beef appetizer with cilantro. Also enjoyed this. Will definitely return. Next time will try the lamb noodles. read more

Been craving beef noodle soup so decided to visit Dunhuang when I was in the area. I came on a Sunday and there was no wait at all, I was seated right away. I ordered the Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup which is a bit spicy due to the chili oil. The chili oil adds more flavor and would highly recommend it if you can take spice! If not, I have tried the regular Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup as well and it was delicious too. I do wish the dish came with more vegetables, but I did see other items on the menu that contains bok choy, etc that cost a bit more. However, I think the Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup is worth it's price, it came with a good amount of beef and lots of noodles. I left feeling very full! Overall, I would highly recommend this place to anyone craving beef noodle soup! The noodles are hand pulled and come in different types (i.e., thin, regular, wide, thick, etc). If you are in the area, I would give this place a try! read more

Stopped by with my son for lunch on a Saturday and the place had a line even in the rainy weather. Fortunately, we did not have to wait too long. Once we sat, we ordered 2 N1. Signature Lanzhou beef noodles and a order of 5 lamb skewers. We unfortunately had to wait for nearly 30 minutes before any food arrived - it was apparent that they had forgotten our order somehow because both parties that came after us received their appetizers first. I had to flag down the waitstaff twice before I got our food to show up. Onto the food - Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles (Main, 5/5, $9.95) - As expected, this bowl of original Lanzhou "la-mian" rocked. Noodles were chewy and that fragrant BROTH was just the thing we needed on a wet Saturday afternoon. Beef was plenty and the right thinness to enjoy without struggling and the spice level was just right. You can ask for more chili oil unless they already have it on the table for you. Lamb Skewers (5 pcs) (App, 5/5, $10.95) - It was everything a cumin lamb skewer should be. Flavorful & juicy lamb meat covered in robust cumin goodness minus strong gamey flavor! It's a long skewer so careful! 5 of them was good enough for both of us. This was just the perfect lunch for us. I am so glad I went a bit out of the way to take my son there because he loved it too + this mall is happening with all the right restaurants, cafes and an h-mart to boot! We will definitely be back! read more

My family and I were able to go back to Dunhuang after an unacceptably long wait at Tasty Moments. The beef noodle soup and the lamb skewers were top notch as I remembered. They make the noodles in house by a window for all to see. Lots of kids were into it the day we went. We also ordered the braised lamb shoulder. It was one of those dishes I appreciated more after having it as leftovers. Pretty generous portion size and amount of meat for the price. Tasty flavor that was great mixed with some rice. The only dish we weren't too big fan of was the spicy oil spill wide noodles. It was the typical mala oil mixed with very wide noodles. The grease level was a little too much for us and in my opinion it's harder to get the flavor into those really wide noodles. read more

I was visiting from out of town and wanted to go to a place where locals visited. Edison has LOT of ethnic restaurants so no problem there. Dunhuang is located in one of the various strip malls off of Lincoln freeway. I checked out some Yelp reviews looking for a place that had good dumplings. This place had overall good reviews and was not far from where I was staying. When I first visited, around 6 PM on a weekday, I was surprised how small the interior was. It's very cozy, but not a lot of seating, so you may want to check when their busy times are if you want to sit down and eat there. However, I was immediately seated, so no issues there. When you enter, there is a window at the back of the restaurant where you can see a person making the noodles from scratch. throwing the dough and stretching it like you see in those cooking shows on TV. It was a sight to see and reassured me that the dumplings would be handled with care. The waiter was nice and brought out some hot tea (I believe unsweetened green tea, I could be wrong though) after I was seated. The tea was very refreshing. I usually don't drink unsweetened hot tea, but hey, why not try something new...you may like it! The waiter provided the menu and I looked over a rather extensive menu for such a small place. I did not take any pix of the menu, but other Yelp reviews have photos of the menu. I decided on the Pork, Leek and Shrimp dumplings. With those ingredients, how could I go wrong?! Good choice. However, for some reason, I chose the 25 dumplings for the meal. Not sure what possessed me to do that. I should have chosen the 15 dumpling meal instead. I only ate 15 of the dumplings and I was SOOOOO full. I did freeze the rest and ate them after I returned from my trip. I did not realize they were so large. Hopefully, the pictures can partly convey the size of the dumplings. I think the waiter's eyebrows went up a bit when I ordered them too. That should have told me something :) The flavor of the dumplings was very balanced. It's hard to put it another way. No flavors dominated the dumplings and maybe that is how it's supposed to be, but the freshness was excellent. The dough was just the right thickness and a little chewy. There was lots of filling in the dumplings, very easy to identify each ingredient. The texture melted in my mouth. It was very satisfying. As I mentioned, the flavors were subtle, with a slight sweetness of the pork, leeks providing a texture contrast and the shrimp also providing some contrasting flavor and texture. The dumplings were served with a side of soy sauce for dipping. I think I would have liked to have a bit more standout flavor in the dumplings, but again, the dumplings may be traditionally prepared like that and I may have needed to adjust my expectations. For me, the sauce helped enhance the flavor a bit. I'm no good at using chopsticks, though I have practiced, but I was so hungry, I did not want to make myself look silly chasing a single dumpling around the plate with the chopsticks for 5 minutes, so I chose a fork. I'll improve on my chopstick technique later. I would definitely go again, order a different type of dumpling or a noodle dish to further expand my pallet and experiment with something different, but overall, it was a good experience. read more

I was disappointed by the two noodle dishes we got. Both were fairly flavorless despite our stated desire for spice and heat. Maybe being non Chinese, the waiter took us for people who wouldn't want heat. The noodle dishes were nicely made & the noodles themselves were just the right chew. We just found ourselves adding lots of chili oil already on the table that made the dishes oily. Our side of cucumbers were perfect. I think we'll go for dumplings in the future or find a different noodle dish. read more

One of many Chinese restaurants in this H-Mart anchored shopping center. Checking Yelp for recommendations because we were only visiting. Tasty Moments looks more decorated (uniforms and table cloths), and by contrast Dun-Huang is more of a local/family feel. We came during Tasty's lunch break(closed) so we walked by their kitchen staff (smoking outside), and tried our luck at DH next door. Although I wanted to try the Stinky Tofu at Tastys, I'm just as satisfied with the choices here - hand pulled noodles and dumplings. Clearly both were prepared by experienced cooks, and am very pleased with their service. I'd give DH a 4 stars for the overall experience. read more

Came here for dinner. The space was nice and clean and the tables were well spaced out. Pretty much anywhere you sit you can see one of the chefs hand pulling noodles fresh in the kitchen so obviously you need to order noodles. We ordered the pork burger, Lanzhou beef noodle soup and lamb pan fried noodles. The pork burger was very flavorful with tender pieces of pork. The bun that it came in tasted freshly made and was warm. The beef noodle soup had a clean beefy flavorful broth and the hand made noodles had a great chew. The pan fried noodles were also delicious with that nice chewy noodle texture. The lamb was tender and had only a slight gamey taste to let you know it was lamb. read more

Nice place to stop by for some fresh made noodles and dumplings. We had a large group and were able to try a variety of items. We had the Beef scallion pancake, Liang Pi, Cabbage dumplings, Spicy wide noodles, Hot oil noodles and the classic soup noodles.

There was also extra chili on the table if you wanted more spice. Service was quick and standard for a chinese restaurant. read more

About as authentic as you can get..... I know that word is tossed around a lot but to Dun Huang's credit it is indeed authentic northern Chinese cuisine. Dun Huang sits on the tail end of the H Mart plaza and can be easily overlooked especially with the extremely popular and constantly packed Tasty Moments right next door. Spacious,modern and clean with a rather compact menu featuring hand pulled noodles in 5 widths available depending on the dish {there is a display window where you can see the days noodles being stretched.}. We decided to start with the Chinese lamb burger {$6.95} which came to the table overstuffed and piping hot in it's own sturdy paper envelope.The bao was flakey and hot, toasted and held a moist shredded lamb seasoned with deep, spicy red hued sauce that numbed the tongue,cleared the sinuses and demanded another cautious bite... Excellent. Next came the meat dumplings in spicy sauce {$6.95}...They definitely looked the part as I stirred them together with that florescent, oily chili sauce with a scattering of chopped scallions. Unfortunately other than the delightfully chewy skin they held little flavor and lacked salt... Too Bad. As mains we ordered the Pan fried Lamb noodles{$15.95} beautifully chewy wheat noodles quickly stir fried with lamb tripe and leg, cabbage,onions and tomatoes this was a subtle presentation that only required a spoon full of chili oil to bloom the sauce...I was quite expecting a bolder dish but was quite satisfied as the flavors married. Next was the Lan Zhou noodles with carmalized pork topped with shredded carrots, cucumbers and scallions {$15.95} The noodles were the star of this dish as the it took center stage gently mixed with a slightly sweet pork broth..... hot, cool,spicy and savory this one was the best on the table so far. Portions are on the smaller size but this menu invites the diner to try many of the smaller dishes and appetizers so it makes sense.Their slightly nutty tea was plentiful and hot and service was quick and efficient.... all in all a excellent meal for less than $50.00 for two diners with tip. There is so much more to explore on Dun Huang's menu so I look forward to our next noodle crave visit. read more
