Jalen R.

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

Menu

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.

The noodles were very good and I definitely enjoyed the soup I wasn't to big of a fan on the dumplings and could go without it

N6 Spicy Oil Spill Noodle
Barbara S.

This place is really good! They always seat us right away with friendly and fast service. I usually get the spicy oil spill noodles but this time tried pan fried veg noodles. They were good but I'm going to stick to the oil spill from now on. They have good music playing and it's cozy

There is maybe a tbl of lamb.

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.

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

Amelia C.

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.

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.

Jen W.

Prices are great. They have entrees available for less than $10. The Lanzhou beef noodle soup broth is clean and has depth. I also love the oil spill noodles.

C5 Multi-Spiced Beef W. Cilantro
Vivian L.

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!

Brian M.

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.

Kenneth M.

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!!!

Spicy sour noodles
Kat J.

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.

This is the best price for the quality XLB you will get in boston. Be prepared for some old school…read more Good but a little rough around the edges and a healthy amount of fat. The XLB has a decent skin ranging in thickness with a ton of broth from collagen and pork fat. I would even guess that almost half of it is pork fat. Personally, I would prefer more collagen than I can eat more but this will definitely fill you up quick. The fried buns are also nice and juicy, but prepared for that grease coming out. Service is quick and space is small. Be ready to dine and dash as people will be ready to take your seat during peak. The space is small be prepared to wait. The best value for quality. Cant be missed.

Thank you to the local Yelp reviews on this gem!…read more It's located in the Kam Man Supermarket plaza. I drive by here daily and never knew this local small mom and pop restaurant existed. The place is very busy on weekends so I'll recommend coming early or off hours - no during lunch or dinner times. My hubby and I visited on a Sunday around 1:30pm and there's a 10 minute wait for a table. The place is small so many orders are placed to go's. We placed our orders and the food came out pretty quick considering the number of people ordering from that small kitchen. Food is delicious. I love the soup dumplings and the beef and scallion wrap. The noodles were a bit spicy so if spicy isn't your thing, don't order it or tell the staff to inform the chef to not add the spice. Overall, we love the food and will be coming back to try other dishes.

The soup dumplings are a MUST-order, and this time we ordered a few different things to share.

The food remains good and menu is still solid. I love the pan fried dumplings - it's one of my favorites! It marries a juicy dumpling with a crisp yet soft bun. Sounds confusing i know, but you have to try it to understand.... The savory soy bean soup/drink is a simple but delicious treat. I always have difficulty to decide whether i want the savory or sweet soy bean soup/drink. The beef noodle soup is flavorful and the beef is tender, but it is not spicy. The one thing that turns me away is the wait time. The wait is often very long (like 2 hours long). They have a waitlist program but you have to go there first to put your name on the list rather than doing it online.

This restaurant features a minimalist Shanghai-style design, centered around a striking red and…read moregold color palette. Although the decor is simple, the bold use of red and gold makes it highly memorable--and the space is very clean. Even though the bowls and chopsticks are disposable, there's clear attention to detail. The chopsticks feel great to use, and they are even engraved with "上海小笼," which is a thoughtful touch. The bowls are made of thick, sturdy paper, with a beautiful red base and gold rim--both aesthetically pleasing and environmentally friendly. Ordering is done through a self-service kiosk, but there are still staff members nearby. When it's not busy, they are friendly and happy to assist with any questions. The Noodle in Scallion Sauce (上海葱油拌麵) has a rich scallion oil flavor with perfectly chewy noodles, while the Cold Noodle w. Peanut Butter Sauce (麻將涼拌麵) is packed with a strong peanut flavor and equally chewy texture. Both dishes are delicious and taste very similar to Taiwanese sesame noodles. Every dish is served fresh and hot, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. Whenever I'm in Edison, I can't help but come back to try more items on the menu.
