This is a decent breakfast spot on 86th street. There's plenty of seating inside. I usually call ahead to place my order for pickup. It gets busy sometimes. Their steam rice rolls are usually pretty good. We also tried the takeout for the pan fried noodle and hot plate beef fried rice. I tried their stone mill noodle roll and fabric steam noodle roll. Both tasted similar and good. Their soy sauce is just ok. 8/10. Pan friend noodle is pretty legit. Though the rice noodle got overly crushed, broken into too many small piece. But overall flavor is good. 8/10. The hot plate beef fried rice is just so-so. Very plain. 4/10. Overall price is reasonable. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The typical asian place to grab a quick bite or rice noodle. The rice noodle is actually decent and fairly priced. The rice dishes not so much because it felt like it was made the previous day but that is probably true cause I ordered in the morning. Can't say much about the service except that it is kind of fast. Ambience rise, just seems like a fast food restaurant but a bit bigger. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

There are so many scrappy noodles places in brooklyn, and if you want a fast, inexpensive meal, this would be one of those spots to visit. You order at the counter and find any available seat there are and wait for your buzzer to go off! Get your food and enjoy! A lot of grandmas and grandpas come here and I get why - unlike dimsum spots, places like these have a big menu and offers various items in addition to scrappy noodles- think dumplings, rice and all for an affordable price and great portions. The menu does get a little confusing especially if you're looking to order the scrappy noodles because there are I think 3 different types that I cant remember. Either way, we got random ones to try. I think they were all pretty good but I do love noodles from other spots more. read more

Crispy skin shrimp rice roll is good, the shrimp itself is fried. Crispy shrimp roll is very oily. There were about 6? 8? Pieces. Their pumpkin soup is not sweet, but not savory either. It is self serve, order at the counter and they give you a buzzer when your food is ready. There are a lot of seats. read more

The food is still good; but there are two new women who have been manning the cash register; borderline rude and really cheap. I couldn't finish a giant bowl of congee so asked for a container to take away and they were going to charge me a dollar. A paper cup was 0.25 cents. Mind you I had already tipped them more than that and this has never happened here before. I get maybe 10 cents for a cup or a quarter for a container but that's ridiculous. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - Watercress, dried shrimp, beef, shrimp, pork and roast pork rice rolls; fresh made and yummy! - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I would give this place a 3.5 star. Service is fast no frills. Food comes out in less than 5 minutes. The shrimp rice rolls are terrible. It's about $3 and you get only like 3 tiny pieces of shrimp. The fried cruller with shrimp for about $4 taste a lot better. The cilantro rice roll is good and the plain Cheung fun is decent Medium size is about $4 and it comes with all the sauce already mixed in. Texture is semi soft and the sauce taste average. There's plenty of seating and you don't have to pay tips. Once you pay, you get a buzzer and the place is semi- clean. read more

A solid and affordable spot. Their rice noodle dishes were excellent -- the crispy shrimp rice rolls stood out in particular. The fish balls and congee were both satisfying with nothing to complain about. Even their clay pot rice was decent, though a bit on the bland side for my taste. read more

Is this a joke? Flavorless and boss lady is just greedy and cheap. Paid $10 for this beef rice noodle, when putting together my order I asked why just a spoonful of beef (total of 6 tiny pieces), boss lady replied "you should be lucky your even getting this much". Am I not paying for this? Was this free ? Avoid at all cost. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We ate at this place for the first time and it was very disappointing. We ordered wonton noodle soup and shrimp rice noodles and both orders came out bad. The wonton did not look like wonton at all, it was much bigger than the typical wonton in size. It basically was a bunch of pork wrapped together in a wonton skin. The noodle was not the egg noodle that most wonton noodle used. Their noodle was white color and it looked like FUN instead of noodle. When I questioned if that bowl was noodle or FUN, the staff seemed to be annoyed. The way how she talked made me feel that they thought I have never seen noodle in the past. The shrimps rice noodles came out with no sauce at all. We put soy sauce on it, but it was still tasteless. This place did not offer table services, so we needed to put the tray and trash away once we were done. Self service wasn't an issue, but their trash can was full and the staff did not seem to care. Street parking was not easy, so I probably would not come back again in the future. read more

Very freshly made and made per order! Good portion size and price is not bad even after inflation. My kids love their rice noodle with special sauce aka all the sauce except for hot sauce. You have to let the staff ladies know specifically the kinds of sauce you want or do not want in your rice noodles! This will speed up with the ordering process. My kids also love their yummy fried dumplings! The color on the dumpling skin is golden! The dumpling meat is very tasty! I have one kid who only eats the dumpling skin and another kid who only eats the dumpling meat, so getting one order for both kids all works out haha This place gets pretty busy in the weekend, but please be patient with them! Good things come to those who wait! *wink* Note: Price has gone up due to inflation, so ask for the actual price because the menu is outdated! read more

Take all the reviews with a grain of salt-- there's always something to complain about. Consider the cheap price of the dishes and meals you can buy PLUS : free wifi , optional tipping , bathroom , and a large seating area. This spot has all of the above !! Yes, the ladies behind the counter can be snappy & blunt but they are always busy & they're making sure your food doesn't burn. Please be kind to others and put yourselves in their shoes. Anyways-- the food is delicious and nostalgic. The fish balls always hit & you can't go wrong with the shrimp rice noodles. read more

Love the concept of a casual restaurant specializing in all types of cherng fun (steamed rice noodle rolls) but I think execution on quality could be a bit better. I came in to eat this past Saturday and ordered the roast pork rice noodle roll (stone mill version) and the curry fish ball rice noodle. For the roast pork one, the guy taking our order recommended the stone mill version so we went with it but I feel like I personally would've liked the steamed version (the kind you find at dim sum) or fabric steamed version (perhaps more soft and silky). Stone mill was just okay; nothing particularly amazing and I'm usually a fan of the dim sum style one anyway. As for the curry fish ball one, the mixed sauces is usually the star of the dish but I found the sauce to be too watery and the fish balls too doughy (fake). Still, I love that they offer 3 styles of these rice noodles here - typically you can only find one style per restaurant. If I lived closer I'd frequently return to try the others. I'm sure they have better ones than the two I've tried. PLUS prices are pretty low, making it a really affordable breakfast/lunch spot! read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - Top: curry fish ball rice noodles (medium), bottom: roast pork rice noodle rolls (stone mill) - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The worst customer service ever, I went in by 11:30, no one customer in front desk, one staff at cashier answering the phone, one female staff came out from kitchen, the other customer came after me placing order... the staff finished her phone order and asked next please, but another female customer came forward and they start their orders, WTF am I invisible? The way they handle their business make no one wait on line. And when I asked the staff finished phone orders she is very rude and try to give herself an excuse. read more

Pros. Service is quick and there is seating. Cons: Lacks meat in rice roll and porridge.

4.5 I'm guessing it's a hit or miss for people with the ratings. It's a no frills, cheap and fresh meal! I ordered two shrimp rice rolls, one beef with egg, and the fish ball rice rolls. I got my order in about 10 minutes. The sauce to rice noodle ratio was perfect in the fish ball rice noodles. The shrimp rolls and beef roll were good as well. read more

I will be honest with you. I was afraid to try this place because my friends (multiple) have told me only bad things and the overall average rating on yelp isn't the best neither. Today my husband woke up extra early and decided he wanted some rice rolls. We did not know where we could get some in the area but he suddenly remembered seeing a sign for them here at Fu Yuan. I ordered the fish ball rice noodle (medium size) and my husband ordered two of their stone mill rice noodles. One with pork and eggs and the other with some kind of veggie. The texture of the fish balls were different to the ones I am use to. It's definitely got a bounce to it and the texture is smooth. Not complaining at all but I have also had better along 8th Avenue. The stone mill rice noodles were nice. Thin and smooth. I would definitely come back again and try other things. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - a plastic container filled with food - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Ordered a bunch of items for take out. This place has ALL TYPES of rice rolls, it can be a bit overwhelming. The crispy shrimp rice roll was a very unique rice roll, never seen that anywhere else. It had a crunchy layer under the rice roll skin and it was a great combination. I would definitely order that again. The fried dough rice roll is the typical one you can get a dimsum place, but the fried cruller was a bit chewy and not crunchy anymore by the time I ate it. I also tried the chicken and corn rice roll and it was quite tasty. Besides the rice rolls, they also have congee and other dishes. The fish congee was really good and it had a good amount of fish. Also tried the pumpkin congee but this was not for me. It tasted super healthy, more on the plain side and you can definitely taste the pumpkin. read more

*Cash only!* This place is disappointing to mediocre. Clean and spacious. Self-service. Order from the counter, wait for your order number, grab your food and seat as you wish. This place is a no tipping establishment. The location in Flushing has a great reputation but this place was slightly underwhelming. I was craving Crispy Shrimp rice roll and this is one roll they supposedly specialize it, it was inedible imo. The fried part was like eating crispy oil wrapped in oily rice roll skin. The shrimp, think cheap quality, frozen fried rice shrimp, yuck. Also, there were barely any shrimp, it was more like a fried oil roll. The "fabric" steamed rice rolls were thickkk, not how good rice rolls are supposed to me. So disappointed. They put ginger in their thousand year egg and pork congee, blah. I had expectations for this place. I wanted them to do good and be good for the area. No quality here so probably never again. read more

Came here to order some noodle rolls after Han Wong sold out its breakfast items. The place was narrow but high, making me hear the customer's echoes. There were two people before me making others, who were dining in. After making orders, each party is given a number that beeps when the order is ready. I ordered a Dried Shrimp Rice Noodle Roll, a Sampan congee, a Beef Rice Noodle Roll, and a Fried Dough Rice Noodle Roll. The items were fresh as it made to order. After no one is ordering, the waiter came to the trash bin and changed the bins after the first one was full. There was an air conditioner turned on at 68 degrees. read more

Fishball Noodles ($3): probably the only place in the area that sells fishball noodles with the peanut sauce like the food carts do? It's pretty decent, but very stingy, as they only give four fishballs per order. Yikes Pork Ribs ($5.50): the server/owner warned me that the ribs would be very hard/chewy as their recipe doesn't use flour coating, and yep, he was right. Don't expect fall off the bone, melty dim sum type of pork ribs that's for sure Fabric Steamed Beef Rice Noodles (B3, $3.25): possibly the most disappointing for me was this. I was really excited when I first got the order, as there was a piece of lettuce wrapped around the rice noodles. Traditionally, the ones I've had in Guangzhou, China looked the same, with the lettuce. However, "fabric" was definitely misleading as it wasn't paper thin at all. Was still quite thick and the minced pieces of beef rolled in between just fell off so easily. Portion is super generous, but for the taste, I think the bakeries nearby could've easily made better rice noodles! read more

The prices went up from before, the people who work there are rude. The lady doesn't even give you a chance to look at the menu and expects you to give in your order. I ordered the beef stew rice roll for $5.50, I barely got any beef stew mostly all liquid. Rice roll wasn't made freshly more like it came from a steamer. So who knows how long it's been sitting in there for. The taste very bland, I ended up adding Sirachia sauce on my own. read more

Fu Yuan Kitchen - medium beef stew rice roll - Chinese Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I came here on the weekend they opened and they had 20% off during opening weekend. This place was definitely over-hyped because my mom and her friends kept saying how the Flushing location was amazing and that we had to check out this place. CASH ONLY What I Ordered: - Crispy Shrimp Rice Roll - This is not something you can find in at the regular dim sum places so it is a unique item. I found it way too oily for my liking. Yes, it has a crunchy factor but there was also barely any shrimp in there. There are 2 types of noodle rolls (steamed rice noodle roll & fabric steamed noodle roll). The Fabric steamed noodle roll is slightly more expensive. To be honest, I can't taste the difference as I ordered both types. Both types of noodle rolls aka churn fun have pretty thick skin and the best noodles rolls are supposed to be thin and kind of see through. The soy sauce for the noodle rolls helped with the flavor but it is pretty bland on it's own without any sauce. I ordered the roast pork noodle roll, dried shrimp and corn noodle roll, shrimp and egg noodle roll. I don't recommend you get their noodle rolls. - Curry Fish Ball Rice noodles - The Rice Noodles were OK. Curry Fish Balls are standard with the usual peanut sauce and sesame sprinkle. Nothing special here. You can find this at the churn fun carts in Chinatown. 2ND TIME ORDERING: I decided to give their Soup Noodles a try after having lackluster results with their rice noodle rolls. Brisket Lai Fun - Cashier said this was one of the popular item so I decided to try it but it was the meat was a little too fatty and the soup base was bland. Wonton Noodles - There was only 3 pieces of wonton in this big bowl of noodle soup and again the soup base was bland. Pork Ribs Knife Cut Noodles - The noodles are knife cut and chewy. It looks a bit like ribbons. The pork ribs are flavored but the meat is little dry. This is the only one where the soup base is slightly more flavorful because I watched the guy scoop some of the pork ribs sauce over the noodles. I don't think I'll be back a third time. They really need to work on their soup base for the noodles. read more

They need to work out some "kinks"... but the food is pretty decent. Is it the best you'll ever have? Nah man. But not the worse either. Self-service, order, pay, waaiiiiiittttt for your food (by number) and then either 1) sit & eat in or 2) take-out to go. There are some items they don't currently have yet (curry rice dishes, fried chicken wings). So far, I've tried their fried dumplings, good, freshly made. The crispy skin shrimp rice roll, this was really good, probably their signature since it's featured on their menu. Tried the pig skin & turnips, blah... very bland. The rice noodles and fishballs; meh... it's ok, but the cart ladies got them beat tho. The char shiu rice noodle (cloth made), is ok. The rice noodle is much thicker than the regular steamed ones. My kids liked it. I love their tea eggs!!! Very flavorful. Now the kinks: 1) the wait time per customer is way too long, averaging about 15-20 mins. 2) keeping orders in check! My 1st visit. They gave my serving of dumplings to another customer who ordered after me. I was 100% annoyed. And 200% hangry! My 2nd visit, took over 15 mins for 2 orders of dumplings. My 3rd visit, I "pre-ordered" about 20 mins ahead; I was able to walk in & pick up. BUT... when I got home... realized they completely forgot my fried dumplings. WHAT. THE. EFF. Well, I called back and at least they were apologetic and told me to pick up my dumplings tomorrow. And 3) welcome to the neighborhood! Overall, a good spot for quick eats... (quick meaning not a dine-in type). Have patience. Enjoy! read more

Big place but you have to order up front.   There is only one menu which is tape on the table. They give you a device when your foods ready you can pick it up in front. The foods took about 20 minutes to get which is not bad. The foods was ok. The soup dumpling has no shrimp just meat. I order curry fish ball with Cheng fon and it is not spicy. The other foods was ok. B probably won't come back again. read more

Extremely delighted that there's finally a steam noodle place that opens early in Brooklyn! Owner said that they are the same popular Fu Yuan place in flushing! I scored as their first customer because that's how devoted to steam noodles I am! Woke up bright and early and got there at 7 once they open! As I stepped in, the aroma of pan fried dumplings, rice noodles, and curry fish balls filled the air. I ordered curry fish ball noodles in mixed sauce, roasted pork steam noodles, watercress steam noodles, and an order of pan fried dumplings (6). 3.5 stars for the food, perhaps I ordered take out and stuffing it in the container makes a difference. The steam noodles were too thick and a bit disappointing. The curry ball noodles with mixed sauce was delicious! The noodles are the rolled noodles. The pork dumplings are their own home made recipe as confirmed by their staff and was delicious! I'm going to be back to try their fabric noodles and give their steam noodles another shot since I need to eat it there while it's fresh! There's also grand opening discount today! read more

For one they're open during early morning hours! So you can stop by and quickly grab a bite to go or dine in. It's nice and casual, almost food court style. You seat yourself and grab from the counter when ready. We loooove the massive plates that these noodles come in when you dine in! Personal favorites are the steamed noodles with mix sauce and fishballs, beef and egg milled steamed noodles and the fried shrimp rolls that are sooo crispy and flaky. read more

This spot is honestly really home-y and the food makes me feel at home. I ordered: stone mill noodle rolls roast pork and beef (added watercress and egg for extra charge) cilantro - i liked the beef better than the roast pork and would get again! Good amount of watercress and meat Fish ball Rice noodle with sauce - reminds me of the hk stalls Fried dumplings- very packed with filling milk tea/coffee Pork and preserved egg congee- tasted like home, not watered down and has ginger slices! To be fair, this place really feels like home cooked breakfast. They give large portions for the price you are paying. You can tell they don't skim on the fillings. the quality is also very good. Even after the food has cooled down, the rice noodle rolls aren't hard like many places are. this place for sure did not leave me Give this place a try, you might just like it read more

SELF SERVICE? NO TIP REQUIRED? My mom is going IN. We decided to try out this new restaurant after seeing quite a number of people at the location. Currently, they are having a grand opening special of 15% off, which is a nice touch. My mom and I decided to try the beef steamed rice noodle and the beef stew flat noodle soup;it came out to be a little less than $8, which is a very decent price. However, I really do have to say that the food is VERY mediocre. The $6 beef stew noodle soup was bland and had very few pieces of actual beef in it. I do NOT recommend ordering this because it really tasted similar to or even worse than the beef noodle soup from a Chinese bakery. As for the steamed beef rice noodle, I do think that was worth the money. It was freshly made (you can taste the freshness) and it would definitely cost more at Kings Kitchen or at a Chinese dim sum restaurant down the street. Overall, I can see myself coming back for when I have a steamed rice noodle craving, but this place really is not that special. It seems more like a place for Asian aunties/uncles to hang out and not a place for quality Chinese food. read more

Came in on Memorial day and they were quite busy. It is best to call in your order, as it does take time to make the rice noodles. I had placed an order over the phone for 4 items, 2 crispy skin shrimp rice noodle roll, 1 beef rice noodle roll(stone mill style), and 1 beef stew with noodle soup. After 10 minutes, I went to pick up, they said my order wasn't ready so I kept waiting. After a while longer, I asked someone else for my order and it's been sitting there the entire time. The food itself was so so. I usually enjoy their shrimp noodle, but there was too much oil this time and I probably put just a little too much soy sauce in it. Although it was around a teaspoon or two only. I like the stone mill style rice noodles as they're thinner than the steamed kind. The main complaint is the beef stew with noodles. The beef could've been cooked for longer. The noodles even in soup wasn't flavorful. And this happened to be a recommendation from the person who took the order. I would come back for the steamed noodles, but not again for the noodle soup. read more

Super inefficient restaurant which always has long lines because they havent worked out a system where they can expedite orders out quickly enough. Cash only, with ample amount of seating. The extra 25-50 cents you pay for each dish goes for the no tip and eat your food experience. I always come here for the fish balls over noodles here, just because it's hard to find another place that serves it on 86 street. Priced at 3.50, it's not cheap but not expensive either. Iced coffee is 2.50, but you can easily go next door for cheaper iced coffee. It's a little on the sweeter side, but does the trick. My mom has tried the hand pulled noodles here which isn't really hand pulled on the spot, but straight out of the packaging. Good idea of a restaurant, but quality of some items and timeliness can be worked on! read more
