Food: Ordered the Beef Noodle, which for $10, wasn't a bad deal, considering how much prices have gone up in general. The portion was decent, the broth had some flavor and spice, the beef was tender, and it was all topped with a free egg (which could have been cooked a bit less, but that's trivial). Service: No complaints. The experience is largely self-service and straightforward--you order from a kiosk, someone brings out your food, and you get your utensils + sauces + water yourself. Ambiance: Casual. Parking: Ample parking. Located in a plaza. read more

Been wanting to come here for some time. The popular popcorn chicken was out, which was a surprise given they were not even busy today, with about 3 other tables for Father's Day lunch @ noon today. We ordered 2 beef noodle and one with pork ribs. The pork ribs were heavy bones with little meat. The beef noodles were a bit salty and bit spicy for being mild for my son and I had the mid level. You can literally see the film of grease floating on top in the picture. Then there's the xlb. We all thought the taste was ok, but the dough was a bit chewy and dry on top, and the soup had a sweet flavored more than anything else. Wife and I didn't care for it, but my son seemed to like it. Overall, it's more of a 2 stars for me, but my son do like the xlb, so we'll say a 3 for the overall average. read more

Only positive was the soup dumplings, which were delicious and the atmosphere of the restaurant was spacious and clean. Other than that, the overall experience fell flat. Came here from a post on social media with high hopes. Ordered our food at the kiosk and took a seat. Later an employee came over to inform me they were sold out of something I ordered and let me choose something else. This is fine and not a part of my negative review - it happens - I chose the beef noodle soup, extra spicy, with marinated egg. The cucumber salad we ordered was lacking any and all seasoning. Sadly I make a version of this salad at home, Chinese style, and it is way more flavorful. They didn't let the cucumbers soak in salt beforehand, so they were completely flavorless. Even after adding soy sauce it still didn't save it. Normally the wife and I finish the cucumber salad at other places we order it from, but we didn't even finish this one. When our soup arrived it was extremely oily. Basically mostly oil it seemed, you can see it coating and clinging to the entire spoon. Complely unappealing. I'm not sure if this is something particular to this style/region of a Chinese food or what, but I couldn't eat it. Even worse than the oil issue however, was that the meat in the soup was completely inedible! Literally each piece was either 95% ligament or fat and was just chewy and wouldn't even break down. I kid you not there was maybe a nibble of tender edible meat in the entire bowl of soup. And I don't say this lightly, I'm not a picky eater and generally try to find the positive in food. To top it off, I didn't even get the right kind of egg I ordered in my soup. I wonder if they gave me someone else's order. Either way, it was terrible. Ended up leaving almost the entire soup, even though I was starving. As for positives, the egg noodles in the soup were okay. That's all I can give it. Also, the soup dumplings were delicious. However, given the disappointment in the rest of the food here, we will not be coming back just for soup dumplings. Sadly, this was a huge let down. No wonder it was so empty. read more

Show Mian - Soup dumplings. The only thing we ordered that was actually delicious and edible - Chinese Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Came here with my friend for lunch after another friend recommended this place and praised how authentic it was. First off, I think you really get your money's worth here! We ordered the minced pork noodles and dumplings to share, and it was more than enough food for the two of us. The best part was that everything came out to only $20, which is such a rare find nowadays. Everything is self-serve, but the restaurant was very clean and organized. Overall, we had a really good experience, and I'll definitely be coming back. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic, delicious food at a great value! read more

We were looking for a good noodle shop and found this one in the area. Though it was a Saturday night, it wasn't too busy and service was quick. You self order at a kiosk and seat wherever and wait for your order. I got the minced pork noodle with medium spicy while my sister got beef with mild spicy. The spicy level was perfect - hot but not unbearable. The restaurant looked new and spacious with plenty of seating. Staff was very friendly and helpful. A great place to get spicy noodles read more

Good value for the amount of food you get. Their soups are flavorful and the braised beef is so tender. Everything is self-service for the most part from ordering to getting your utensils, sauces, water. I do like their soup dumplings as they have a slightly sweeter flavor than your typical XLBs. I also enjoy their dry noodles but sometimes it can be on the saltier side. Overall, recommend checking them out and I'll be back to try other dishes. read more

I was not expecting to like this place as much as I did but I do find myself craving it when I'm coming to this side of town and want a quick meal. Ordering is super easy, they have two kiosk near the door or you can order at the cash register up front. Food is cooked fresh to order and the prices are extremely reasonable. Go to orders are the dry noodles, steam dumplings, and the cucumber salad! I love that you can adjust the noodle spiciness and add as much of the numbing oil as you want. Cucumber was seasoned to perfection and a must if you love garlic, it was very refreshing. If you want a no frills good deal meal stop by Show Mian! read more

Show Mian - Minced pork noodles with no soup - Chinese Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

We visited again today after eating here previously months ago. They have made some adjustments since (not add-on style anymore) and the broth was not as strong of a spice flavor, which I think were both excellent changes that made the food more palatable to the general public and affordable for a no frills dinner. The price now $9-$11 for a sizable bowl that you can customize (1) broth or no broth (2) egg or rice noodle (3) add-ons. We both got the base bowl and it was plenty of food, maybe could add on more meat next time. The space is very clean and spacious and comfortable for a casual dinner with extremely fast service, our food was probably ready in ~5 minutes. I got the minced pork noodle with soup and it was a flavorful soup without the very strong anise and spice flavors like before and you could add on the spice oil at each table if you like. We also got the beef noodle without soup and it was also a balanced flavor profile with nice chewy noodles. read more

As amazing as their food is, I will not be returning. This place has recently become mine and family's top spot and have been regular customers for the past few months. Unfortunately we inquired horrible service with said "manager on duty" which left a bad taste in my mouth. Long story short, I asked my son to get a couple more extra Togo utensils as we did not finish our meal to take home, my son accidentally over grabbed therefore I let him know since he touched the items to just bring them to the table and we will take what we need an toss away what we don't need. Employees saw and manager came to our table asked us if we needed all those and we said no and proceeded to grabbed the spoons sitting in our bag and tossed them away. The disrespect in front of our face. I did not case a scene because my son was there but I was furious at the way that was handled!!! Shame on you!!! read more

I have been driving by this place for a while and finally got a chance to dine in for lunch on a weekday! First, I love the open space and we had our pick of any table! It was very bright and clean. We ordered at the kiosk and then took our seats. Our dishes came out in no time. I basically had time to get plastic cups and fill them with water (at the spout) and bring them back to the table. We got the beef noodle soup, dumplings (pork), and cucumber salad. I wasn't really hungry when we arrive but ended up finishing my order! It's a hearty order too. I have never seen dumplings come out on a large flat cardboard tray. The cucumber salad is a little different here. There some red pepper too. It was a nice touch. We're definitely going to come back to try some of the other noodle dishes. read more

The first Asian place I tried that I was disappointed in. It wasn't really anything special and I also thought all the food we ordered had a bitter or sour taste at the end. And the numbing oil was unpleasant. I felt so bad wasting the food. It was nothing like I expected and felt it was an off day for them. Not sure I will return again. read more

I ordered the dry noodle with noodles, beef, mild spice, bok choy and a marinated egg. The noodles were cooked perfectly. The beef was so tender and yummy. The mild spice level was perfect for me since I prefer only slight mouth numbing, but they definitely have that spice level if that's your cup of tea. The marinated egg was okay; it is a hard boiled and could've been more flavorful. I do wish there were less cilantro stems, or cut into smaller lengths as there were a couple bites where I had to chew a long cilantro stem. The popcorn chicken was good; crispy but not dry. However, I do think the menu is limited and see some opportunity to add to it. For example, more noodle varieties (i.e wide noodles), lotus root vegetable topping, a variety of Chinese pickles, etc. Overall, I would come here again. The service is fast and I was very full after my meal. read more

If you like authentic Chinese spicy cuisine, this is the place for you. Fair warning - the spice level and flavors might not be for everyone. The restaurant is clean, the staff are friendly, service is fast, and portions are generous. They also have a great deal after 4pm. I got the beef noodle soup and was pleasantly surprised by how tender the beef was. Definitely coming back! read more

I ordered a beef noodle soup with mild spiciness. The noodles are very good but the broth felt a little flat for me. Not enough beef flavor in the soup. There is a good amount of peppercorn flavor as well and I found it a bit spicy, but that's only because I'm not used to eating Sichuan spicy food. Food was ready very fast and you choose your own seating. It's very spacious inside with lots of seating available read more

Go with what the reviews recommend on the Dry Noodles over the soup version. A warning though, if you are not used to Sichuan spice, you will BURN. I ordered the Egg Noodles with minced pork and it was DIVINE. The noodles were fantastically chewy and the minced pork had a wonderful rich flavor. The slow addicting heat of MaLa spice, creeps up and you get that fantastic numbness. It is a bit pricey as you add the sides (beef, egg, pork) but to me it's well worth it for the fantastic flavor. read more

Pretty good if you are craving some noodles! Overall, the taste is good but it seems to be pretty pricey. We ordered the egg noodle with beef with no spicy and added a fried egg, bok choy, green onions, and cilantro. Green onions + cilantro didn't have any extra charges but rest of the items did. We also ordered the spicy beef and tripe and thought that it wasn't really worth it. The portions for the noodles and beef were decent, good enough for 1-2 people depending on how hungry you are. My boyfriend and I shared one and it was good enough. The beef was tender and flavorful but the noodles were a bit bland in my opinion. Luckily, they have condiments you can add to the noodles such as chili oil, soy sauce and vinegar. After adding chili oil and vinegar, it tasted better. The spicy beef and tripe wasn't worth the price. Although it was tender, it was pretty salty and not spicy so won't be ordering this next time. Overall would I come back? Possibly if people I am with would like to have this read more

The food was delicious. Yes. The noodles are oily, because the soup and sauces are made from hot pepper oil. That's said, it WILL leave you with a numbing after taste.

New Korean noodle shop. Easy find right off Old Denton. Quite a few parking places in front. You pick your noodle rice or egg then tell them if you want them dry or wet(with a broth) & spice level, I said mild. They offer for free a small scoup of peanuts/cilanto/pickles & green onion. They offer meats for an added cost I just got noodles. They made them fresh while you wait. The container was 2 levels one for noodles bottom for broth. They had lots of tables we took ours home. Easy to combine. I felt it was pretty spicy considering it was suppose to be mild. Next time will get just the noodles. Was an interesting lunch. read more

We happened to walk by this place when we were leaving the boba place next door. It was pretty slow for a Saturday night but it was 8pm and the close at 9. We walked in and it was spacious and open, Rheu had several kiosk to order from. We ordered 2 soup dumplings and the ground pork noodle, Omg. It was delish! We didn't have to wait long, but shockingly the soup dumplings tasted amazing. It was very flavorful. Add a bit of the chili oil and it's even better. We also ordered the ground pork with noodles that were dry and it was delicious. We were not even hungry when we came in, but we literally ate everything that was served to us because it was that good. Next time we will definitely go a bit earlier and try more things on the menu. She also had soupy noodles and other dishes as well. This place is a must try. Hidden gem. Don't sleep on this place. read more

I got the beef noodle soup, as well as the cucumber appetizer but would definitely recommend the dry noodle, as the soup was lacking a bit of flavor in comparison. I hope they will expand their menu or at least have recommendations listed to the public in the future. Staff was really nice and accommodating to our party. read more

Brand new noodle place!!! Open kitchen style concept! You get to pick your type of noodle keep it dry or eat it as a soup! They offer different types of proteins like beef, minced pork, pork short ribs, or beef intestine! Then you pick your spice levels. I chose the egg noodle soup with beef intestine at a medium spice level and it was delicious for a cold rainy day! I also ordered their popcorn chicken appetizer which came out piping hot and crunchy! The bowl of noodles and popcorn chicken was very filling! If you just want to try it out go to their instagram page and find the video where they are offering a free noodle bowl with toppings when you tag a friend in the video's comments! It doesn't include any protein! read more

I had never had dumplings before, but the pork soup dumplings made me have a ratatouille moment, and it was tasting these dumplings for the first time that made me realize that there was more to life than work and sleep. In fact, having these dumplings for the first time made me realize that pork was made to be in these dumplings. It must be the highest honor for any pig to be sacrificed to make these dumplings, almost as much as it was my honor to eat them. They are so delicious, in fact, that every time I order them, I burn my mouth every single time because they are just that delicious. To whoever makes these dumplings: thank you for your service. You are have a gift, and you give that gift to the world every day. read more

It looked amazing, but this Beef noodle soup was a bowl of hot oil. There was so much oil, I couldn't even get to the broth, which lacks flavor. All I tasted was hot oil. It came with 3 tiny piece of beef. Sadly, after a few bites. I did not finish it. The oil was so overwhelming that I couldn't get past it. Definitely not the Chinese beef soup I'm familiar with. read more

this is right next to TP tea and one day after getting tea i had a sudden craving for popcorn chicken. I went here and got popcorn chicken for 7 dollars. it was an order on the monitor yourself sort of place. the chicken came out very fast, it felt like around 5 minutes or so. it was piping hot and came in a container with holes cut out to help manage its humidiity. It was the best popcorn chicken i'd had in years. I have had any recently tbh but it brought me back to the college days where milk tea and popcorn chicken was a fun and delicious run. the ambiance was more of a low key place. I would definitely go back for the chicken next time i get boba. read more

Food was really bad no flavor I order 3 different plates and none was good my wife was complaining a lot about the food

Food was very nice . Loved the wonton soup. Very warm and felt like the dumplings melted in your mouth. I would definitely come here again.

I'm not sure if it was just me but I feel like a slight heads up is needed. The experience was great, you order on your own and the food is brought out to you. The staff is nice and helpful. The food was okay, there wasn't much of a flavor other than the sichuan pepper. I was thrown off due to it numbing your mouth. If you're up to try a new experience this is definitely it but they're not your regular noodles. The cucumber salad was great and refreshing! read more
