Dapan Ji - (B Tier), - a little too saucy/salty for me. Noodles were perfect. Amazing texture. Chicken was braised really well. Veggies were also stewed really well. I'd definitely give this place another shot with other noodle dishes. The restaurant is mainly just bar stool seating. It's nice and quaint and like other have mentioned it's definitely solo date type vibes. Food came out fairly quickly too so that was a plus! Service isn't really existent since the host primarily focuses on the to go orders pickups. read more

On the whole, have enjoyed elsewhere for years handpulled noodles from Central Asia, so The Handpulled Noodle perked my interest... although had earlier made it up to this Harlem location. Decided to try an order for delivery via GrubHub and compare dishes with two separate noodles, based on what they recommended for each best for delivery: Beijing Bolo with a fermented black bean ground pork sauce, a.k.a. Zhejiang Mien, including Size #2 pressed noodles thick like udon, scallions, and cilantro, plus Cold Sesame Noodles utilizing handpulled lagman. Both dishes I ordered medium spicy. The Beijing Bolo came in a bowl, while I needed to plate the Cold Sesame dish. Both were flavorful with tender noodles. Next time, more likely to go in person over delivery, and explore other dishes on their menu. It's a great option particularly for this neighborhood! Definitely would recommend trying out The Handmade Noodle! read more

This is my third time going to the Malcom X Hand Pulled Noodle location. For years I ordered from the Broadway location with no issues. I usually like that they have many vegetarian options but today I found a bolt in my stir fry. I won't be returning to this location. read more

The Handpulled Noodle - Bolt found in Scallion + Ginger Stir Fry - Noodles Near Me - New York, New York

I happened to be in Harlem and noticed handpulled noodles, so of course I had to try it. The reviews were solid. I placed a pickup order, but when I got there my food hadn't even been started yet, so I ended up standing around for another 10-15 minutes. That part was annoying. I started with the cumin dry rub wings. They were just okay. Very tangy, not very spicy, and honestly a bit over cooked/fried. I'd skip the wings. The steamed chicken and shiitake dumplings were the highlight. They had peas inside and were actually really good. Super flavorful and easily my favorite item. I also ordered the cumin soup with hand-pulled noodles, medium spicy. Everyone warned that spiciness was intense, so I played it safe, but medium ended up being pretty underwhelming for me. The soup was also very oily. The minced pork was fine, nothing special, and while I liked the noodles, they could've been cooked a bit longer. Overall... meh. :/ read more

Ordered pick up on a Saturday night when craving Chinese food and presented with a different option. If you're craving traditional Chinese, maybe don't come here, bc it's definitely a different concept! The food was flavorful, unfortunately the delivery time was continually pushed and our food arrived pretty much cold. I ordered my dish with no spice and pretty quickly realized that my lid was likely switched with another dish and I was eating the wrong food-thankfully, I had no allergies! I don't think I would return. read more

The Handpulled Noodle - Dapan Niu - Noodles Near Me - New York, New York

Solid food for the price if you're craving handmade noodles. Broth in the herbal beef soup is flavorful and the "high" spice setting is truly hot (though pleasant). If I could do it over again, I wouldn't order the #2 udon-like noodles - I think either a thinner noodle or the ribbon hand pulled noodle would work better. The dapan niu was also deliciously pleasant, the ribbon hand pulled noodle did good, the texture, the taste, the tinge of sweetness. Service was pleasant, hospitable, lovely. Ambiance is fine. I can do without the view of the trash bins right outside the window, but the wallpapers were fascinating! read more

Okay these are some of the best noodles I ever had (I ordered the Ribbon noodles, extra spicy). Disclaimer: I ordered delivery so didn't dine there - still, so so so good. The shrimp wonton was great but I don't recommend it with the veggie broth. read more

Good spot if you're in the mood for tasty Chinese food. You have to order your food via a kiosk that has the meals with pictures. The food takes about 10 minutes to come out. I would've liked to be able to wash my hands somewhere but there's no bathroom for customers. Prices are decent. There isn't much of a dining room but there's a small table that run alongside the wall with some chairs. read more

We ordered delivery through Uber Eats. I ordered the Dapan NIU. Not only was it very spicy, it was very flavorful. I really enjoyed the experience. I suggest that you try it if you like hand pulled noodles. read more

So initially, I really love this location and love the fact that we had a handful noodles in the neighborhood and I went to visit again after having a great first time visit and they got my order completely wrong and we're frustrated when I asked them to correct it prices also increased randomly so after waiting another 20 minutes, I grabbed my order went home to eat it and found Hair inside of my food. Very disappointing. I literally just want to refund. I tried calling the store a few times and don't even get a response again just truly disappointing $20 on food. I can't even eat. read more

The Handpulled Noodle - Hair in my food - Noodles Near Me - New York, New York

I decided to visit this location and I have to say I prefer this one because the customer service was outstanding. They were just so friendly and helpful with helping me decide on what I wanted and what level of spice. I mean it was just the way I was greeted and treated. I decided again to pick up some dumplings for my girls and some Dapan Niu for myself. I have to say I enjoyed my noodles a bit more this time because of the flavors and I actually got to pull my noodles this time, but I still think they need to find away to make it better for those who are taking it home. The time you get it home it stills just stick together. At least my noodles weren't broken into pieces this time but they were stuck together. Anyway I still enjoyed my meal and I think next time I'm definitely eating in on the spot. As a matter of fact I know I will visit again because they made the best Lychee Ice Tea I've ever had. I'm getting a couple of those just because lol. If I can finally get the pull like you see them do on social media and in a video they broadcast on location then I will be changing to five stars. For now A thumb up and Happy Yelping! read more

I've only had delivery but the food has always been good. I haven't gotten the spiciest level but the next level down is SPICY. Do not play with that option and I can't imagine the next one up lol. I like the different concept, the only suggestion I would have is the serving size is a little small (once again only had delivery). read more

Absolutely amazing spot! Portions are amazing, staff is super friendly, and the food is super tasty! If you have great spice tolerance (like me), definitely recommend the highest spice level :) read more

I recently purchased takeout and it was good. I usually order and eat it there. This time, I ordered it and ate it at home. The staff is very friendly and the service is good. I did want to order on the app but the app was not working so I ordered in person at the store. I would definitely go back and for me it is always delicious. The space is nice small and a great place to sit and eat. read more

On Google Maps this place is known as "The Noodle" so almost thought I was in the wrong neighborhood. I ordered the cumin stir fry which starts at $14 but I had it with lamb and the handle pulled noodles so it cost $18.50. They were good, not my favorite though. Some of the lamb was a bit chewy. I also ordered the hot and tangy pork & chive dumplings ($10.50 for 6). I love how they came in the broth/soup but it at the same time it took away from the flavor of the dumplings. They were a bit on the doughy side. I really appreciate how they let you choose the spice level! I played it safe and went with low which didn't give it much heat and that was fine with me. If you order high or crazy high there's a note that states "no refunds" Took at least 10 minutes for Mr to get my order to go. They have about 8 stools that you can sit on if you want to enjoy your food there. read more

This place might just be my new obsession--I ordered two days in a row! And yes, I've got the receipts to prove it. Both times, the food hit the spot. Feeling under the weather from traveling, I went with the Herbal Beef Soup with their special hand-pulled lamein noodles and the hot and tangy chicken and shiitake dumplings (you do have to pay extra for those noodles). The flavors were so rich and comforting, I was genuinely sad when I finished. You can tell everything is made fresh--the noodles and dumplings were next-level. The lamein noodles were thick and flat, which made slurping a bit tricky, so the next day I ordered the same soup but switched to lo mein noodles. They were thinner and perfect for slurping. Overall, I'm obsessed and can't wait to come in person on my next trip to try more! read more

My friend and I came for a weekday lunch. We were the only ones eating here; this spot mostly has a strong delivery and takeout game, it seems. The eat-in spot is fairly bare and counter seating. The menu is short but well curated. You can order on a tablet, which shows pictures and lets you choose spiciness levels. (The hottest level is described as incredibly strong.) We split two dishes with medium spice, which I'd say was still quite strong. Great noodle texture, though noodles were so long that it was hard to eat/cut with the utensils we had. We got extra spicy crisp sauce on the side, which was a great addition. The guy working in the main area was so kind to bring it to us. I can't wait to come back and try more. read more

Immediately you can tell this is a location that is designed for comfort food and mainly serves as a takeout location. The area is small yet has a charm to it. Famous for their handmade noodles, and I had to try them out! I did takeout and so the food was a little cold because I live around 30 mins away. I can tell right away the noodles definitely hit the spot if you need some noodles, some heat, and a tinge of home! The pricing is really fair for the quantity and the quality speaks for itself. Dapan Niu is fantastic but comes with pre-set spice. Beef broth is one of their most ordered along with the Stir Fry. Would definitely come here again. The service was pretty standard and friendly. As it is a takeout place there is nothing there. Ratings are based on food, scallions were a bit lackluster. read more

We ordered takeout, let me start by saying I'm not a fan of this type of cuisine but since my (pregnant) daughter loves it, I decided to indulge this day. We ordered the noodles traditional style with lamb, it was seasoned well and the regular noodles were firm not chewy and pretty tasty, Thai sweet chili chicken wings were cooked too hard and dry , the sauce dribbled on them didn't make em any better, it didn't stick to the wings enough for me (thumbs down) and we got the broccoli with garlic sauce. The delivery service was on point no complaints, the place is a quaint space. Overall my daughter loved it but as for my taste I'll definitely go back and try something different on their menu to get the experience read more

Noodles were fresh, hot and full of flavor. I ordered the traditional style with lamb and a Mango Black Tea. Not a lot of seating and it's just high top bar seating- but it wasn't busy so not too bad. read more

Very satisfied with the Chinese style noodles and dumplings. Prices are decent, find your own seat inside. Very comfortable place to eat and chat. Highly recommend coming for food or just to enjoy hanging out with friends. Clean, temperature was perfect and I don't remember there being much music or noise. Not sure if there's a bathroom. To decide what to order, they have a nice menu with pictures on their website as well as an iPad in the store with descriptions of the offerings. They specialize in different types of noodles stir fried with different proteins in either cumin or ginger etc. There's also buns and dumplings and wontons. The man at the front counter was very welcoming and nice. He made some suggestions for what to order. 4.5/5 - Cumin stir fry pork with handpulled ribbon noodles. Very filling. Came in a cute takeout box. After mixing in the veges it was a balanced flavor, not too salty. Pork was cooked perfectly soft and moist with some fat. Got it medium spicy which to me was barely spicy. Would recommend going a level up. A bit oily. 4/5 - pork and chive dumplings - very acceptable classic dumplings. Know that its not the usual long crimped chinese dumplings. These are pretty juicy with a robust flavorful filling and chewy dumpling wrapper. Basically don't need the sauce. The nice man also offered spicy sauce. 1/5 - pork bao (buns) - definitely not a personal favorite. The filling was insanely salty (and I love salty foods...) and also sweet. Not my preference. 3.5/5 - peach tea, $3 a cup. Very affordable. Tastes a bit watery but can't complain at this price point. Refreshing. They have plastic cups to self serve water. They offer disposable chopsticks, forks, spoons, etc. The place was also clean. tl;dr good chinese stir fry noodles and dumplings place. Welcoming staff, decent prices, clean, quiet, get the hand pulled ribbon noodles or dumplings read more

Ordering from Postmates is the worse! I ordered at 6:41 and it's now 8:15 and my food has yet to arrive, even tho I'm 25 blocks away. Additionally the phone either doesn't work or they don't pick up. Great food, but service outside of the location is just terrible! read more

Really delicious! I tried the cumin soup with chicken and the ribbon noodles (I LOVED these noodles - and they actually survived delivery fine). Hubs had the cumin stir fry with beef and size#2 fresh pressed udon like noodles. Son had the curry stir fry with lagman handpulled lamien. We all had medium spice. (Funny how no refunds are for any spicier) Everything was delicious. My portion size was great, but we were disappointed by the sizes of the stir fry dishes. They came in just one chinese white takeout container. This portion seemed small and for my husband it wasn't filled to the top which made is seem smaller. So not sure about the stir fry value. We did delivery on a grubhub special, so can't comment on service or ambiance. The food was delicious! read more

Was in the area and hungry, so looked on Yelp for a place open late. The profile said they were open until 11, so we went at 945. After driving around for 15 minutes we find parking and went in at 10:07. Inside we saw a handwritten sign that said dine in closes at 10. We were fine with that, but before we could order the guy working the front told us the kitchen closed soon. When i asked about it closing at 11, the guy said it did, but only for delivery. Not sure how delivery is different than take out, but whatever. I approached the screen to order when the guy, once again, intervened and essentially told me that i couldn't order from there either and my options were very limited. Unless i wanted delivery. Again - difference? At that point i was simply mad. If you close at 11, then you should honor that when someone walks in an hour before close. I wanted to like this place, but couldn't and don't think I'll be back anytime soon. read more

The noodles here are so amazingly full of flavors , I usually get the traditional stir fry traditional lo mein style noodles with a mango peach green tea as a beverage the noodles I get are medium level hot-spicy you can change the level to your preference.

The noodles in this spot are beyond delicious. They are so good I want them all the time, the place is kind of small and the wait takes forever if you're doing pick up (we didn't eat here) but it was well worth it. The only reason this isn't 5 stars is bc we had to wait a long time and while we were waiting the smells of everything they're making in the back come out (it's winter so we waited inside) and I feel like I left the place smelling like noodles and meats lol. BUT once again, after I ate my food-- I didn't even mind! I can't wait to come back! read more

Really the best super flavorful food! Freshest produce and chicken and really fast delivery! When the fridge is empty and you have a headache from not eating enough all day....

Thankful for this place! The lemon curry rubbed wings they added to the menu recently are amazing! I always add a side of broccoli- yes it's $9 but it's a generous portion heaped w garlic. We also love the crispy spring rolls and chicken and shiitake dumplings and pork and chive dumplings! read more
