This place is delicious! my family and i were visiting and craving a warm soupy dinner for the cold and this place hit the spot! The broth is very flavorful and delicious. even though it's a spicy noodle dish, it was tolerable and not too spicy. the pork soup dumplings were very good, even though the skin was a bit thick, it held the thick meat very nicely. overall, everything was very good and i highly recommend giving them a try - especially if you're craving for some authentic chinese noodles! read more

It was so awful! What's with the 4.7 rating on Google Maps? Chicken Leg Noodles Soup鸡腿汤面: Roasted chicken leg in instant noodle soup, tastes remarkably like Master Kong mushroom and chicken noodle soup. The noodles themselves are also very ordinary. Noodles in Scallion Oil with Chicken葱油拌面: Overwhelmingly sweet... Who makes scallion oil noodles like this? Cucumber with Garlic Sauce凉拌黄瓜: Very bland, almost tasteless. We added some salt at the end, and it tasted much better. read more

I walk past this spot all the time and finally stopped in on a rainy day when I was craving some noodles. I went with the Sichuan Beef Noodle Soup which was HUGE! Rich flavorful broth, nice chewy noodles, and tender beef, all together made for a great meal. I was super hungry when I ordered and also got their wings which were heavy on the garlic but still very good. Service was quick and friendly and restaurant was spacious with lots of seating. read more

I drive by this place on my way home and thought I would try them out. Once you enter thru the tinted windows I was surprised by the set up of tables, I thought it was a carryout. The drawings on the wall, genius. The place was empty but I placed my carry out order since I had other plans. I was greeted by a nice young lady' who directed me to a kiosk to place my order. I ordered Sichuan beef noodles and it took less than 10 minutes for it to arrive. When I got to my moms I found the typical separation of noodles from the broth but noticed not a lot of beef or bok choy in the broth. Broth was rich and flavorful but lacked enough substance from meat and veggies to make it worth the bucks. read more

The pork chop over rice with minced pork and a fried egg was so delicious. The pork had this sweet flavor and was crispy and juicy, right on the bone. The dumpling soup is also great. Everything on the menu looked good and the food and kitchen smelled delicious. All cooked to order and served hot. Plenty of seating. Service was quick. read more

I came here on a very cold night, and Yu Noodles totally hit the spot. Such great Chinese comfort food! I usually get the sesame paste noodles with minced pork, but I decided to try other dishes: rainbow soup dumplings * $13 pizza pork soup dumplings * $12 sesame paste noodles with minced pork * $11 fried wing with garlic hot sauce * $11 chicken leg over rice with fried egg + minced pork * $13 black sticky rice with coconut milk and mango * $8 I probably wouldn't get the pizza soup dumplings again. It seems more Americanized. I highly recommend the rainbow soup dumplings so you can try each kind. The fried wings were so yummy and not very spicy. Perfectly crisped! I also enjoyed the black sticky rice dessert. The mango sago wasn't as good compared to the black sticky rice. It's very cozy inside, and the service is great. read more

Came here with a group of my friends and ordered the rainbow soup dumplings. I got one of each- chicken, spicy pork, pork and shrimp, beef. We were supposed to get a pizza as well, but they appeared to be out so I received two chicken dumplings. Not a problem just wish they would've told me! The dumplings were delicious, I especially liked the spicy pork dumpling. Lots of seating available. Service could've been better, our waiter didn't really speak to us. Overall though, I felt the food was delicious so would definitely come again! read more

Came here for a casual dinner with family - all the dishes were perfect! Our waiter was very kind and quick! I really wish I took pictures of our food because my only complaint is I wish I knew what dishes looked like! Some of the descriptions were unclear (to me) and the visuals would've been really helpful. But every was so yummy!! read more

Terrible and unhygienic experience. The older waiter was extremely rude and unprofessional. He wore a single pair of blue gloves for nearly an hour, touching everything from cleaning dirty tables and wiping dirty rags to handling menus and serving food to customers without changing them. It was extremely unsanitary. On top of that, the noodle soup was lukewarm and tasteless. Overall, a disgusting dinner experience. I will never come back here read more

Always looking for a good spot for dry noodles, and Yu Noodles met that mark. We carried out rather than dined in. The spicy dry run noodles were so good, as were the cold shrimp noodles. Definitely recommend. We also got the soup dumplings and pork buns which were good but not that unique from a lot of other places around town. Might've been better fresh as opposed to carry out. read more

My friend offered to pick up Yu Noodles for our group dinner last Thursday, so I happily accepted! I haven't been to Yu Noodles for awhile, but I saw they had the fish with sour pickled cabbage which has hit a few cravings as of recent, so I wanted to try the one here. N8. FLOUNDER W. SOUR PICKLED CABBAGE NOODLE SOUP - 13 It came a quite a few pieces of flounder, which was quite good for the price. The flounder wasn't super soft, either it's not super fresh or overcooked. There was plenty of pickled cabbage to add a bit of acidity. The broth was OK. The flavor was a mix of sour and savory, but I prefer mine on the creamier side, and this broth just wasn't that. Regardless, it does the job. Glad to see more diverse cuisines in Rosslyn other than fast-casual. And for the area, this is reasonably affordable. read more

TLDR; The Yu Noodles in Tysons is 100x better I loved my time at the Tyson's location so I ordered takeout the other night. I got the yibin noodles, which had 2 chili peppers on the menu, but they weren't really spicy at all, and I'm not even good with spice. The sauce was pretty good but was basically one-note flavor. The pan fried pork buns were.... Not good. The filling was decent but instead of pan fried it looked like the dumplings were just held near a pan for a few seconds. They did open recently so maybe they're working out some kinks, so I would like to eat at the restaurant and give them another shot! They did have some decent prices at least read more

We rolled into town after a long drive and wanted something quick and easy to eat. We love dim sum and this place has a great selection. The steamed pork buns were good, but we've had better elsewhere. On the flip side, the shumai was much better than anywhere else we've been. We also got a variety of dumplings: crystal shrimp, pork soup and chicken soup - these were all very good. read more

Average at best. The service was not great. They were slow to take our order and also slow to help us pay. The place was clean with lots of seating available. The food was okay. Got the marinade tofu which was decent, nothing to write home about. Same with the steamed shrimp dumplings. The Thai iced tea was the best part of the meal. read more

Solid spot for noodles and dumplings, not too expensive either. The soup dumplings were tasty. I got the chicken noodle soup for my entree, it was very solid but the broth could've had a little more flavor. I also tried my friend's beef noodle soup, while it was good also wished for just a bit more flavor. The chili available on the table was helpful to amp up the meal. Service was good and prompt. read more

Loved this new spot. I haven't been to any of Yu Noodles' other locations, but the menu at the new Rosslyn looked solid--so I had to check it out. The interior is sleek and minimal, with a clean design and a soundtrack of bumping U.S. pop music that gives it a fun, casual vibe. The staff was friendly and helpful, offering a few great suggestions. We started with the wood ear mushrooms ("fungus" on the menu). Served cold, they were surprisingly flavorful...light, spicy, and refreshing. A perfect appetizer before diving into something heavier. I went with the Chongqing noodles, and they were fantastic. The broth reminded me of a mala hot pot base...spicy, numbing, and complex...but paired with excellent noodles. I wish there had been an option to add some protein beyond the fried egg; a little meat would've taken it to the next level. We also tried the spicy pork soup dumplings, which were delicious and juicy. The vinegar-based dipping sauce wasn't really our thing, but the chili oil on the table worked just fine. Definitely coming back to try more! read more

I'm always in search for authentic Chinese restaurants in VA and am constantly disappointed. Unfortunately, Yu Noodles in a Rosslyn did not satisfy my expectations. The food wasn't terrible but not great either. I stoped by recently to have a solo dinner. I ordered their spicy beef noodle soup and pan fried pork buns. When I've tried spicy beef noodle soup in New York, typically the serving is much more generous and the beef is large chunks of tender beef in a deeply flavorful broth. What I was served at Yu Noodles was not that. What I got was a moderate portion of soup with thin slices of tough beef in a decently flavored broth. The pork buns were just okay, decent seasoning but I wish they were juicer. The one plus side I found was that the prices were decent, so I may come back to try other items on their menu. The service was fine and the decor was decent. read more

I just found out there was one in my area. After going I have to say the quality is great and the same as Fairfax. I really enjoy the spicy dumplings and other dishes that really bring back memories from my childhood. Service was ok. I didn't like how they seated me in the middle of the restaurant even though it wasn't but that's just my preference. Lastly parking is limited. It was raining that day so I found street parking right in front but I can see if it was not raining it would be hard to find street parking. Overall a had a great time and similar ambience to the other Yu stores. read more

I've tried several of their other locations in person but got this for delivery since it's closer to me. Pan fried buns: 3.5/5. These are a favorite from their other locations but the bottoms are just lightly fried and not crispy enough as these should be so they're closer to just regular steamed buns. The filling is really good but very small so feels a little not worth it Chongqing noodles: 4.5/5. Really great flavor and hits the spot every time Beef noodle soup: 4.5/5. I've tried several different beef noodle soups in the DMV area and this one is one of the best. Great flavor,decent amount of meat and perfect for a cold day read more

Yu Noodles offer a unique taste on noodle soup. My girlfriend and I ordered the Beef Noodle Soup and Chongqing noodles and both dishes offered flavors that made us feel like we were in China. The spices especially was a unique taste that reminded me of my vacation to China as a kid. We recommend this restaurant for a quick eats by the Rosslyn metro stop. The noodles were done within 5 minutes of ordering, and the portion size was good. The interior was well designed and felt like a noodle shop. However, a lot of dishes include peanuts. Be cautious if you have allergies and you can request dishes to be made without peanuts. read more

I was really excited to try this branch which is the closest to DC and accessible by metro. The dumplings were soupy and delicious. The noodles are springy and I love the intestine meat which is something that I'm able to mimic at home, hence a must order if I dine out! I was expecting something spicier but wasn't really able to taste the spice, although I do have rather high spice tolerance. read more

I am so happy they opened a Yu Noodles in Rosslyn! Yu Noodles is one of my favorite chinese noodle places in the DMV. They have authentic delicious noodle soups. My go to is always the intestines noodle soup. Extremely flavorful! Their wood ear appetizer is also a go to. Since they just opened, some of the waiters are still getting into the rhythm of things, but otherwise, they are very nice and attentive! This place is great if you want to catch up with friends over a warm bowl of noodles. Hope this location catches on soon because their Fairfax location always has a line! read more

4.5 stars Fast service and good value. $11 for spicy flavorful yibin noodles. Be sure to mix up thoroughly since there are granules of salt on top. Shrimp & chive dumplings were steamed then lightly fried on one side. Great amount of chive flavor and the sauce was a sweet contrast. Wontons were okay, but a little mushy and one note. read more

Ordered delivery. Food arrived hot. I asked for utensils and they did not provide it. They only provided a vinegar for the dumplings as a condiment nothing else. I ordered the pork and chives dumplings. These were actually quite tasty. Very floral and good flavor. Tasted good with the vinegar. I also ordered the minced pork over rice with egg and Sichuan beef noodle soup. The minced pork and rice was okay. Bland. The sichuan beef noodle soup was VERY vinegar heavy. It wasn't flavorful, wasn't spicy, and tasted mostly like vinegar. They didn't give a lot of meat but did give plenty of noodles. Would not order from here again read more

Service was pretty mediocre as we were never properly greeted when we arrived. Basically gestured us to find any table and sit down. I ordered Chongqing noodles: the soup base tasted ok, ingredients included chili oil and some peanuts; noodles portion was small and underwhelming. My wife said her noodles tasted like it was pre-made then microwaved before serving. Then income a few Asian customers who were extremely loud and unruly. Quite a few customers in the restaurant were turning their heads. However it didn't seemed mattered to the restaurant staff. The atmosphere was turning terrible. We finished our meals as soon as we could. Had to wave off the server several times in order to pay for the check before leaving this place. Will not recommend anyone to go unless you don't care about customer service. read more

McLean location food was not up to standard, service was so-so. Afraid to try other locations.

Inexpensive. Surprising. Spicy. Quick. We enjoyed a fast dinner - seems to be a chain, but it's new to us. Service was also good.

Food was great with just the right spice and heat. The dry noodles and dumplings probably my favorite. Service was fast and attentive. The ambiance was to be expected but very clean. A good place to visit and relax after a day in DC. Not a hang out but comfortable for a bite before the end of the day if your looking for something different read more
