    Beef wrap, and scallion pancake
    Howard W.

    This is the first time I come here my beef flank soup was very good and my friends pickled vegetable fish. Soup was also delicious. The scallion, wet beef also good I will come back. And the surface was fast efficient and the place is clean with bright light, modern deco.

    Braised bone rice noodle
    Sharon L.

    The Flushing location for ten seconds noodles is somehow even better than the Brooklyn one! Stopped by for a quick dinner with my boyfriend & I was quite surprised that the two locations could differ so drastically. My boyfriend ordered the braised bone rice noodle, & I got the spicy sliced beef rice noodle. I actually really liked my boyfriend's soup - the broth was so flavorful & rich. I really liked mine as well - it's like a mala soup base, and the spice level wasn't bad at all. There's 2 pepper signs on the menu, but I'd say it was closer to 1. It was incredibly flavorful as well. I really appreciate how they give you little bowls on the side to either scoop out some toppings, the noodles, or soup. It makes it much easier to eat the noodles since the broth is piping hot and makes for a bit of a splatter hazard. There'a also chili oil on the table, and it was really yummy. Free noodle refills are available at this location, and scallion & cilantro toppings are free as well. Yelp check in provides a free passionfruit tea (it was really good!) or plum juice, and can be redeemed for each person who checks in at the table.

    Gigantic portions here! This was the most stuffed I have been in a while. The service here is very lax, but at least they're not rushing you. I got the Tomato w. Beef Flank Rice Noodle ($12.95), which like all their pots, came already pre-assembled in this impressive black pot. Normally, crossing the bridge noodles's uniqueness came from the disassembled ingredients as shown in some of their past pics. So I was disappointed at first. But upon digging in, the flavor was very delicious! I wasn't expecting to see snow fungus in my broth, but the usual bean curd, quail egg, and corn were there. Their Beef Flank was also not chewy at all, and easy to bite into. And for a tomato broth, there were no tomatoes as a fyi. Most amazingly, I was impressed by how full I was off of this affordable meal. If you ever need a quick meal on a budget one cold night, you know where to look!

    Great service Love the food A little too spicy for me But warm setting Affordable price And parking!!!

    4.5/5 I'm a lover of all noods. Bf and I wanted to try this place for a quick dinner and it was sorta packed when we got there. They do have limited outdoor seating as well. We waited for about 5 mins and people started to leave after their meal. We thought it must be yummy if people came in on a rolling basis. Looking at the menu was a little overwhelming at first because of all the options. Bf got the pickled cabbage fish fillet rice noodles and I decided on the tomato beef rice noodles. We were both WOWed. The fish fillets were not fishy at all and the tomato broth/soup was flavorful. You can also get free refills of the rice noodles!!!! Overall super yummy, and warmed our bodies on a chilly day. Would definitely come back to try their other noodles.

    A new dining experience for me and husband. We never expected that we will have a good time . We never been dining-in for the past long months. We were thinking of dining out when we checked in but when we saw that they follow distancing , we agreed to be seated inside. It is under new management for those who had been here before since the menu has different business name. The noodle broth taste is amazingly different basing on our past dining experiences with restaurants offering same kind of meal. I had the chicken rice noodle soup and my husband had the spicy beef flank rice noodle soup. My husband had complimented the uniqueness of its taste multiple times. It must be really really good. I did not try his because I do not like spicy foods. The stoneware used kept the soup hot the whole time while we were there. I may buy those kind of pot for personal use. Lol. We were thinking of coming back once get comfortable again with the situation.

    I think the experience is much better in store. I ordered delivery - I have to say their packaging is real fancy, however, it's missing many things like the quail, egg, wings, etc. You'll want to see them plated and add yourself which you'll only get to do in store.

    Pork Chop Rice Noodle
    Bentley H.

    I've been here a few times both sitting down at the restaurant and ordering for takeout. I ordered the fried pork chop noodle soup and it comes with a large assortment of ingredients. It comes in a large pipping hot pot so be careful. Broth is flavorful as it is infused with all the ingredients. The pork was ok. I wish that they had put it on the side instead of in the soup. It gets pretty busy late at night since it's one of the few restaurants that opens until 10:30. We were sat at the table where they usually pack the orders due to how popular the place was. Quick tip- I believe you can ask for free unlimited noodle refills. They also give you two off-branded yakult drinks at the end!

    Been here twice already and I love this place!! Both times, I came on a Friday afternoon during my lunch break (1230PM - 130PM) and it does get pretty crowded! If I make it here by 12:35-12:40, there's not much of a wait but once I get here a little later than that, it's gets packed really quickly. It is a small place and can probably fit about 30-40 people? The first time, I had ordered the Beef with Kimchi Rice Noodles ($11.95) and it was SUPER DELICIOUS. The waitresses first bring out the dishes/ingredients of uncooked meat, corn, bean curd, raw egg, slices of ham, etc etc and then after a few minutes, they bring out the hot stone bowl. (It comes out relatively quickly so I wasn't on a time crunch to finish my food.) They also ask if you if you'd like to put the ing yourself or if you want them to put it in. I asked the waitress to put it in for me so I could record!! They're quick and careful because the hot stone bowl is extremely hot! I absolutely love fatty beef so that was very delicious. The soup base was also very flavorful + tasteful - it had a little spicy kick to it! The second time I went, I got the Beef Flank Tomato Rice Noodle (also $11.95). However, this time I came a little past 12:45pm and the hot stone bowl didn't come out until 20 minutes after my friends and I ordered! I was on a time crunch because I only had 15 minutes to eat this super hot bowl of beef flank tomato rice noodle. The broth definitely had a strong tomato taste but I had burnt my tongue slightly because I was rushing! So gotta be careful! I also couldn't get over how the meat was so tender and tasted so juicy!! Drooling just thinking about it right now! Both times, I couldn't finish my food so the waitresses would put it in a container for me to take to go. Another great thing about this place is FREE WIFI! Definitely will continue to come back and try other things on the menu!!

    You know it's authentic Chinese while there are many Chinese people inside! The best selling dish is "Crossing-the-bridge noodles"form Yunnan province. Food is fresh and I like how they separated the sides and the noodles and let you put together whilst they served you with a boiling hot broth in a stone bowl, so they don't get over cooked or soggy. I like their indication of spiciness form 1-3 , I think 2 is the perfect spiciness for me! If you checked in on Yelp they would offer a free plum drink or passion fruit tea, I only tried the passion fruit tea, it's delicious and hydrating! Two things that I don't like about the restaurant: THEY ONLY TAKE CASH!!!!!!!! THEY ONLY TAKE CASH!!!!!!!! THEY ONLY TAKE CASH!!!!!!!! That's very important so I have to say it 3 times. Oh! and if they don't bring the trash out from the front whilst people are eating that would be much appreciated.

    Noodle# cockroaches # roaches#
    Ann Z.

    Disgusting!!! I ordered rice noodle and noodles with soy bean paste, and there are cockroaches inside. More than one of them. More than one!!! Who can imagine it!!

    The fact that this place has less than 4 stars is a crime. These noodles are one of my favorite comfort foods. I always order the spicy beef rice noodle. SOOOO GOOD!!! The portion size is also HUMONGOUS. It's really worth all your money. Tip: if you order take out, you can add more toppings from home and make it even tastier

    Lamb tomato noodle soup?
    Roger H.

    Nice friendly staff, but incredibly confusing menu where everything look scattered, was all over the place, and did not provide translations for every item on the menu. I ordered the pork belly pan fried noodles and the lamb tomato soup noodles, the pork belly pan fried noodle was okay, it was incredibly oily due to the hot oils that were used to cook up the dish, the tomato lamb soup noodle had a great hearty lamb flavor that combined well with all the ingredients there. Overall nothing about this place stood out to me, it was overall an incredibly average experience topped with a confusing menu

It is clear, not because it is diluted or made from a powder, but clear in the way that only hours of careful skimming can produce. This is a broth that has been edited, notimprovised. You taste sesame oil. You taste white pepper. You taste the quiet backbone of xiaosing wine. The wonton shrimp balls are magnificent. They are large and generous. When you bite through the slick wrapper, the shrimp inside is bouncy and sweet. You can imagine the type of family that immigranted to America, the arguments that they had, the dream the owners had when opening this store. This restaurant feels like one person made it, one person had a distinct vision and concept, and it was all they knew. I felt like I relived memories that I did not have. In three days in New York -- three days of ambitious tasting menus and celebrated kitchens and meals that performed their own importance -- this $15 bowl I kept thinking about on the flight home. Not because it surprised me, but because it didn't try to. Every ingredient was intentional. Every sip landed exactly where it was aimed. There was no wasted motion, no hedged bet, no seasoning added to flatter a palate it wasn't built for.

    There's a "People Love Us on Yelp" sticker at Maxi's Noodle which is basically all that needs to be…read moresaid! Maxi's Noodle is teensy; a sign warns you that tables may be shared. I ate in the enclosed patio which only had two tables, and the inside didn't seem much bigger. There is no bathroom for customers so don't bank on bio breaks here. It's efficient in that I was seated promptly, was able to place my order when I was ready, and the food came out lickety-split. Carry cash for a discount. I ordered the Wonton, Dumpling, & Beef Stew Noodle Soup ($14.75) under the "Popular Items" section of the menu since it seemed sampler-esque. The wontons and dumplings were similar since they both contained shrimp and pork but I leaned towards the dumplings since they also included mushroom, bamboo, wood ear, and chives. The duck egg noodles, beef, and broth rounded out the awesomeness. Can't wait to return with others!

You order on iPad at the table, and the staff is available if you have any questions. When you confirm your order on the iPad, they will confirm with you. Service is friendly and helpful. The food came out quick! Their kitchen is in the basement and they have the dumb waiter sending up food, so very efficient use of space. The Dumplings in Chili Oil (can adjust spice level and cilantro) has added texture with crushed peanuts. We got the regular spicy, but could have gotten extra spicy. They were a decent appetizer but I'd go for something else. The Abalone and Chicken Rice Noodles had decent chicken flavor. There were a couple pieces of dark meat, which I enjoyed. Not sure if there was abalone in here, but if there was, it was nondescript. The rice noodles were well cooked. The Plum Juice had a lovely smokey flavor, along with a lemony flavor form the couple of lemon slices inside. It was not too sweet, though I personally could go for less sugar. Overall, a decent spot for rice noodles. They do have multiple locations, so go to the one near you! No need to go out of your way.

The portions are quite generous, and the service is good. There's minimal interaction with the staff since you place your order through a tablet provided at the table. Be mindful if you have peanut allergies definitely let them know so they don't sprinkle peanut on certain dishes. Overall, this is a great place to get a warm noodle soups during Winter season.
