Love this place. We got the beef shaobing and sat at the bench there. I wish to try the duck shaobing when we come back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service is quick and space is small.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Went on a Wednesday morning after Solidcore, so there were only two other parties there[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].
Food: The noodles are very average here. We tried the Chongqing Noodles and the Zhajiang (meat sauce) Noodles ($10) each. The flavors were good, but there are better noodle places in NYC than this one. The noodle texture wasn't anything special or impressive. It would be nice if the zhajiang noodles came with more meat sauce. Portions are also on the smaller side. Overall, I wasn't impressed. They also offer appetizers and jianbing on the menu. Service: You order your food at the register, and they'll bring it to you at your table. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Ambiance: [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is small with tables and seating for small groups. I wouldn't come here with a large group.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place and likely won't be returning.
A place that serves very simple noodle soups. The price isn't very cheap given how barebones the noodle soup is but nevertheless, it taste good. Service is fast and minimal as to what they do for you. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location is at a quiet place out out of the semi busy Grand street but a nice place to relax and slowly eat your lunch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
What a great spot for jianbing or jian bing, a well-loved Chinese savory crepe. Wider filling selection than other spots, with seven different options. Have had Jian Bing elsewhere and this was by far the best--not too much sauce, light-textured egg, crispy fish and fresh vegetables for a great crunch. Must try for jianbing. Sweet and sour lotus root had a great unique flavor, crisp and tangy. Delicious meal all around. Looking forward to returning. Wonderful man and woman there, treating all with kindness.
$10 for this little portion and the cucumbers weren't evern crunchy anymore. Complete bullsht if you ask me.
So delicious. My friend and I went for a very late breakfast. I had the beef jian bing, she tried the pork belly jian bing. We both absolutely loved it. The portion was very generous and the price was very reasonable. We both left with happy bellies lol. Everyone in there was very friendly. The inside is tiny but very clean. It was seriously delicious. I've never tried jian bing before and I definitely want to again.
Tasty jian bing for $8 each. Perfect wrap of crunchy and savory! My friend got the duck bao and also loved it! She said duck was melt in your mouth. Small restaurant, order first and then sit down.
Fast friendly service, hot noodles. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plenty of seating on a Sunday morning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Delicious, not too salty, not too oily.
Delicious jian bing and duck bao! I loved how crunchy the jian bing was and it had a good balance of being flavorful without being salty. The duck bao was so soft. Small restaurant, but we didn't have any trouble getting a table. The auntie taking our order was so nice. Highly highly recommend checking out!
very nice jianbing here, i visited specifically to try and i wasn't disappointed. prices are modest too, and it was a decent size serving. definitely lived up to my expectations and then some. they have a pretty extensive menu so their other items would be worth a shot too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was packed when i was leaving around 2pm so it seems like the hype is real![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]
Yiwanmen is one of my favorite casual noodle restaurants in all of Manhattan Chinatown. Specializing in Sichuan cuisine, its noodles are consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors. The establishment is relatively small with a few tables, but clean and large enough to accommodate my daughter in her large stroller when we visited Yiwanmen on a Saturday around noon. Whether for dining in or delivery, my favorite dishes are the fish noodle soup with mala sauce and their signature Chongqing red oil noodle. The noodles are perfectly chewy, broth savory, and portions generously sized. Although their jian bing was very good, I was disappointed to find that the "sausage" was really just hot dog. While hot dogs are ubiquitous as a street snack in China, I was hoping for something less...processed and more akin to Chinese sausage. Even so, Yiwanmen is a staple for us in the noodle genre in Chinatown, especially given the quality and affordability.
Some of the best hand pulled noodles I have ever tried! I ordered the Chong Qing Red Oil Noodles and it was the perfect flavor! The service was nice and quick! Everyone was super nice. I will definitely be back!
Delicious and different from what I normally eat. I tried this in a food stand in Columbus circle but this was way better. I'm in the area now and maybe I'll go back for another Roast Duck Jian Bing.

Came at 1 PM on a Saturday and there was no line. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small spot, but we were able to grab a seat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Braised beef noodle soup was good after adding hot sauce, but nothing too special. The crisp fritter jianbing, however, is out of this world. I want it again ASAP. Would try the hot and sour noodles next time as well! 4.5 stars. read more
Owners were super nice and service was quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A few tables to sit at, no frills.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Takes cards. The pork was a bit too fatty for me (usually pork belly comes with SOME lean meat but this was all fat) but flavors were delicious. read more
[[HIGHLIGHT]]Chill, tasty, casual place for yummy food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The fish bing was delicious and would get again. Mala fish soup was pretty yummy and i enjoyed the variety of toppings. The broth isn't as rich - mostly just tastes slightly spicy but i enjoyed. The staff and service was very good. extremely friendly read more

After walking by this spot several times, I finally came in for a try. Their menu is simple - noodles, and some sides. Prices are pretty low, but portions aren't crazy big (definitely still sufficient for a meal though). Everything was pretty yummy. The soup was savory, and I really like the Jian Bing. The mango basil tea was sooo good. Their Meng Meng tea was super sweet - I wouldn't recommend unless you love SWEET drinks. The duck bao was good, but I've had better baos. Overall, nice spot! Some seating indoors - good for SMALL groups. read more

Friendly staff. Limited seating inside. I ordered the jian bing and it was very yummy, albeit smaller than I was expecting for the price. The pork floss one is delicious and the perfect snack, or meal if you have a very small appetite. I'd eat it again, but $8 for the pork floss one seems a bit steep to me. read more
My friend insisted we try an authentic Jianbing while in NY which led us to Yiwanmen. We were greeted warmly with an elegant storefront and friendly service. The staff were welcoming and patient while we figured out our order. Once we ordered, we enjoyed a quick chat while they prepared our order fresh. Within minutes, we had freshly made breakfast ready for a great price. Now, arguably the most important part: how did it taste? The answer is simple, absolutely delicious. By far one of the BEST breakfast items I've had. Flavorful barely begins to describe it. There is an excellent blend of texture and flavor that is perfect for a crisp morning in NY. I would highly recommend everyone to give this restaurant a shot as I know the Jianbing was just scratching the surface. There's much more on that menu that's worth a try, I'll definitely be back! read more

This is actually a hidden gem to me. I do archery nearby and have become a regular here. Perfect to go with a friend or two. It's got a small mom and pop vibe to it. And even if you're solo, they have a bar off to the side you can sit at. When I'm in a rush, I'll stop by and order a jian bing. I've tried the beef and fish ones and have loved them so far. Particularly the fish. They've got nutritious, homey tasting noodles like the wonton or pork belly noodle soup for when I'm not feeling well. If I had to pick between the two it'd be pork belly. Well portioned pork belly slices. We never exchange many words but the simple friendly hellos are always appreciated especially here in Chinatown read more
Yiwanmen (translates to one bowl of noodles in English) is a small family-owned restaurant in Chinatown. The storefront is tiny and only have 4 tables and some window seating. You order by the front then grab a table. The lady in the front who you order with will also bring you your food. Menu is not that elaborate -- about 8 noodle options and some buns / pancake selections. I couldn't decide whether to order the Chongqing noodles or the hot & spicy intestines noodles, but ultimately decided to try the Chongqing noodles since it seemed to be their signature. We also ordered the hot braised beef noodle. Our order didn't take long to arrive. First sip of broth and was disappointed by the lack of spiciness for both bowls of noodles even though it's supposed to be spicy noodles. We added some chili oil, which is on every table for use, but that didn't really do much for knocking up the spice level. Overall, while I was disappointed about the level of spice, I did enjoy the flavor of the broth and noodles. It was a delicious and affordable lunch for under $10/bowl of noodles -- which is what I love about Chinatown, especially during a time of inflation and rising food costs. I do recommend this noodle shop to those who want to enjoy a bowl of noodles without the spicy kick. If you're a spice lover, look somewhere else. read more

My girlfriend and I saw this place while walking and went inside on a whim. It's a very cozy spot with Mandopop playing in the background. We only got their jianbing with crispy fritters (the classic way it's made) and the lady behind the counter was nice enough to split it in half for us. The jianbing was delicious with nice crunch from the fritters and pickled veggies, and when you add their chili oil thats available on the tables, the spicyness takes it to the next level. Next time I would definitely go back for their noodles which look delicious as well. read more
I stopped by recently over the weekend for a quick lunch. The place is small - a few tables and some counter seating. It feels like a small mom-and-pop shop. I had the Pork Floss Jian Bing, which was good, but not the best one I've had. I think it could've been a bit more substantial. My partner had the Pork Belly Bao and the Pork and Chive Dumplings. The dumplings might've been the most solid dish out of the 3. I think this is a good spot for a quick bite while in the Little Italy/Chinatown area. read more
I was wondering around looking for something to eat and decided to come here for jiang bing. I had one with duck before but it wasn't on the menu so I asked. They said they could make it so I ordered two. I was shocked when she said it was $29. I had to ask a few times because the others ones were $6-9. I paid cash since card would be charged another 3.5%. I ate mine as soon as it was ready. It was delicious. Light sauce with lots of fresh veggies, some duck and crispy chip-like thing wrapped in a warm crepe-y outer layer. My friend ate his later but still crunchy and good. Because of the price, I'm not sure how often I would order this but it was delicious. read more
I decided to try this place today, I got the Duck Jian Bing. Having had good Jian Bing in Shanghai and one place in Flushing, I am usually skeptical. This place has REALLY good Jian Bing, the duck is incredible tender and juicy. The contrast of it to the Crispy Wonton makes for a great combo. This is definitely the best Jian Bing in Manhattan by far. The duck one is NOT on the menu, you have to specifically ask for it. It will come out to $13. Very high, but very worth it. read more
What a delicious and warm little pocket of yumminess that you can carry in your hands! My sister and I had the beef slice (B5) jian bing. It was so tasty! The egg wrap had the perfect thickness. I feel like sometimes when it's too thick it becomes too much egg. The Hoisin sauce wasn't overpowering either. I also really liked the crispy fritter thing stuffed in the middle. Of course, the rest of the filling was the perfect complement, too. I am interested in trying some other flavors. I know the restaurant was mainly known for their noodles, but I think their jian bing are now getting some hype. Stop by for a little snack! read more
Delicious snack you can pick up and eat! I ordered the B5 / sliced beef jian bing. The flavors were immaculate and the ingredients tasted fresh. It was smaller than I expected, but it was the perfect amount of food to hold my hunger down. I was able to walk and eat it with ease. It also took some time to prepare, but you can definitely call to order ahead! I noticed a lot of people coming in to pick up their called in orders. They seemed to have a lot of options on their menu with indoor seating! read more

My cousin suggested this spot to me while staying in NYC wit my boyfriend and its a 5/5. the vibe is so cozy and inviting. if you aint lookin you might miss this spot cuz its tucked. quick n friendly service. the food was so budget friendly, nourishing and substantial. it was that goood to me we went twice in 3 days. After making the trek around getting designer bags (IYKYK) in Chinatown while it's cold a f, this was the perfect meal. We kept getting the wonton noodle soup and the duck bao. SO FIRE read more

I came here for dinner on a Thursday night with my sister. They had noodles, jianbing, and baos. There was more seating than I expected. You order at the cashier and they bring your order to you on a tray. We shared the pork belly bao, the duck bao, and wonton noodle soup. I enjoyed the wonton noodle soup the most since it was a large portion. The wontons tasted homemade and the noodles were not overcooked or undercooked. The baos were okay, do feel like the bao buns were not that fresh. I liked the duck bao more than the pork belly bao since it had veggies in it so there was a good crunch. The prices were not bad compared to other places. Also, the portions were larger than I expected. Service was friendly and fast. I would come back to try their jianbing and other noodle dishes. read more
Solid Chinese noodle place! Very small shop with 3-4 benches as seating and a semi private seating area in the back. The shop was quite clean and brightly lit, and when I went on a Tuesday night at 6:30 there weren't many people there. I ordered the chongqing noodles (spicy oil, lettuce, preserved mustard, and pork) for $9, which was really worth it! The noodles had good texture, broth was very flavorful but not too spicy, and a good serving of toppings. I would come back to try the jianbing for sure! read more
I love this place and have been here a few times now. It's comfortable and service and food are all great! I always get the minced beef noodle soup and I'm never disappointed. My boyfriend has tried a variety of other dishes from here but always says the minced beef one is best. So if you're going to come here, just order what I did and you won't be disappointed. The potato dish was decent not amazing, but it's a nice wash of flavor in case you want to balance the amazing flavors from the noodle soup with something a bit plainer. I didn't try the intestines so can't comment on that. read more

Fantastic and truly authentic spot for some good noodle soup. The broth was very warm and yummy, and the wontons were tasty. The interior was also very calming to eat at. read more

If something needs to be vegetarian, will the staff accomodate?
Yes , very much so. They serve plain noodles with vegetables too. Nice owners, just ask :)
Is this a tipping restaurant? I'm confused because I order at the cashier but they bring food to the table. Feels like something in between a tipping restaurant and a…
I'm fairly certain you don't need to tip, but you can to be nice :)
