Came by for dinner the other night and it was a tasty experience. Parking was available in the private strip mall lot or garage. Dining is indoors exclusively. Front of the house waitstaff wore a uniform t-shirt and some wore gloves. Changsha Rice Noodles is slightly misleading as the name on the door says Jade Garden BBQ. Ordering is via QR at the table and requires a telephone number and text message one-time-passcode. Opted for the $15 half Cantonese roast duck weekday dine-in special and it was phenomenal. Unlike typical roast duck that is cold with soggy skin, this one took a good 15-20 minutes for it to come out. The skin was crispy and the meat was juicy. As other Yelpers have mentioned, this is quite rare in this area. The sauce was extremely flavorful. They had a $5.99 3 piece grilled oyster special which was also fantastic. The oysters had a fantastic charcoal fragrance and was topped with a ton of garlic. The garlic string beans were pricier at $17.99 and came as a generous portion. Staff were quick to service. ~$50/head after tax and gratuity with plenty of leftovers! read more

I have been here many times and have tried a variety of different dishes. My favorite noodle dish is the Pickled Long Beans with Minced Pork for its cohesive flavorful profile - an el detente bouncy chewiness from the noodles, a fun crunch and slight sourness from the pickled beans, zesty spice from the chilis, with soy sauce and umami flavors from the pork to balance it out so that every bite is perfect. At no point does it become too heavy, it's delicious and feels filling but refreshing. My second favorite noodle would be the Crispy Pork Belly. The skin is perfectly crispy and juicy, it's amazing. Though the meat itself can lean dry/chewy, once you mix the noodles, the sauce coats the meat and you have another umami bite filled with a fun crunch from the pickled root and pork skin. It appears to be bland at first, but once mixed, the dish levels up to a savory and homey bowl of noodles with the pickled root to cut through the heaviness. To tie my second noodle dish, the Walnut Pork Ribs. This is an amazing innovation, I couldn't stop gawking at it whenever I took a bite. I'm not a big fan of walnuts, but these walnuts taste like they've been caramelized in soy sauce and brown sugar, and the slight sweetness coating the pork ribs surprisingly enhances the umami flavors. Love this dish as well! If you like cumin dry rub on your barbecue, definitely try the grilled meats. They are grilled to order and come out sizzling and hot with that typical grilled flavor. The grilled oysters are my husband's go to appetizer, again, it comes out very fresh and hot. The roast duck came out with the perfect crispy skin and tender meat, and honestly I have not tried anything yet that doesn't meet the standard of the other dishes. There is always seating available since I tend to go later at night, and food service is so quick. It's not a fancy place, but the ambience is chill. Just go to eat some good food and catch up with friends. You scan the QR code to order so no time wasted flagging a waiter down. I rate this 5 stars because I would definitely recommend this to a friend if they were to visit! read more

Surprisingly thought their rice noodles were whatever...however THEIR ROAST DUCK WAS AMAZING! Sooo crispy and juicy--best roast duck I've had. I was not expecting anything coming for dinner here and I was literally shocked by how good the duck was. Even my parents, who are hard to please, enjoyed it thoroughly. Other notable mention was their fried yellow croaker skewer. Very yummy!! Service was quick and very clean inside. read more

Was craving some late night noodles so we decided to do take out at this place and we were pleasantly surprised. The rice noodles seemed fresh and perfectly cooked. I got the eggplant and green beans with rice noodles and loved it. They have many items on their menu and I'm excited to see what we'll order next time. read more

This is at the back of Jade Xiang Yue and also offers Hunan and Cantonese cuisines which seems like an odd couple. The sign on the outside is confusing. It is Changsha Rice Noodle in Chinese but Jade Tea BBQ in English. The ambiance is pleasant, bright, and comfortable. Their roast duck is on special and only $15 for half a duck which is a great deal. Since the two of us were not very hungry, we only ordered half a duck and a bowl of Spicy Beef Rice Noodle. I think the menu (via QR code) says that the duck could be a 30 minute wait, but our food came out within 20 minutes. The roast duck was excellent, probably the best in the Bay Area. It was definitely 5-star caliber. The skin was crispy and thin and without a thick layer of fat underneath which is quite common for roast duck. The meat was thick, moist, and tasty. The rice noodle had good texture and very savory soup base. Unfortunately the spicy beef was not like regular braised beef but kinda like beef jerky. It was thin and kinda dry. The variety of food they offer is rather interesting. The only Cantonese items are the BBQ meats, chow fun, chow mein, and fried rice. I suppose the other dishes are Hunan style. They off crawfish, skewers, appetizers, stir fries, desserts, etc. I took a peek into their kitchen and saw a lot of ducks hanging. It did look like they roasted their ducks on demand throughout the day. Service was decent. Prices are a bit high except for the roast duck. It is not a bad choice for a relaxing meal. read more

Changsha has everything I look for in a casual dining spot. It's unpretentious, has good-enough service, and excellent food for great value. The must try items are roast duck and roast pork. The chow mein noodles were a tad salty but would still get again. Most of their noodle bowls offer a choice of regular noodles or rice noodles; we prefer the regular noodles despite rice noodles being part of the restaurant's name. We are already regulars here in the short amount of time Changsha has been open. read more

The old Jade Tea Garden café is now a rice noodle place featuring the best of Cantonese deli delights such as roast pork and roast duck, as well as Hunan spicy noodles and other dishes. The roast duck and roast pork are hands down my favorites here, but I also enjoyed order dishes. I love that they're open late too. Interior is bright and welcoming. You can see the display of deli meats. I had my eye on one of the last ducks available, but missed out on the roast pork! This will definitely be a new regular place to go! read more

My heart was broken when the old Joy Lucky Bistro closed down, where I used to be able to get cheap eats that included all the Cantonese barbecue items. I saw that this place was open and it was under Jade Tea but I couldn't find any reviews on it because I just found out that it used to be Jade Tea, and the sign is still up but now it's Changsha Rice Noodles. I was craving duck today and so I went by myself and ordered the half roasted duck and the oysters. OMG, the duck was PERFECT! The skin was perfectly crisped, the meat was tender and juicy, and they put enough duck juice on the plate for the duck pieces to sit on (I hate when the restaurant so skimpy on the juice!). The oysters were delicious! Can't go wrong with garlic over oyster! I ordered the three-piece and wished I had ordered a six piece instead! I live only five minutes from the restaurant and will definitely come back over and over again! So happy to have this restaurant here! read more

Solid spot in Cupertino if you're looking for Cantonese style roasted duck. We ordered their duck, rice, and stir fried beef noodles, coming out to $38 before tip. The restaurant is connected to jade tea garden. The food was great and authentic in flavor, with decent service. Menu is in English which also made that easy. Recommend! read more

3.5 stars rounded up to 4 Came here for dinner on a weekend. Decor is cute but I noticed that the service is not consistent. No one offered us any toddler friendly utensils. But the waitress then later gave toddler friendly utensils to another family. Order via QR code. A lot of the items were sold out which was a huge bummer. We ordered two noodles - soup and stir fry. They were both really good, hearty, and decent quantity. Unfortuately, the green beans were spicy although not listed on the menu. The clams were also soaked in this red sauce that really upset my stomach. read more

the stir fry pork noodle bowl is my all-time favorite! I cannot get enough. this place is quickly becoming my go-to for chinese food.

Be aware!!! The signage outside says "Jade Tea Garden" for this restaurant. Just a heads up since I had a hard time finding "Changsha" outside the store front. Overall, I'd give it more of a 4.5 stars. This is a really casual restaurant with friendly staff and lots of seating! Casual Southern Chinese food. I'd recommend their Chicken Skin Skewers, Braised Beef Noodle Soup, Guanzhou Roast Duck, and Liangpi. (The cold noodles with chili oil and cucumbers) read more

First off, this place has one of the better roast duck. And it's only $15.99 as promotion. The rice noodle was legit. I have the beef tropes one and it was good. The tendon was tender, tripes were good as well. I will come back to try the beef stew noodle soup. It looks good too but haven't tasted it yet. read more

(Jade Tea Garden) The food and service were great! There are two sides to this restaurant. The main entrance is behind Ranch 99, and around the right corner is the other side that is a more relaxed and casual atmosphere. The quality of food and flavor is outstanding, from the region of Changsha. The drinks selection is limited, they don't offer hot tea so we went with water. We ordered the Beef Soup and Chicken Skewers (which were next level delicious). Service was attentive! read more

This restaurant used to be 「醉香小舘」, now「長沙米粉」。I read some good review and decided to give it a try today. We ordered Braised Beef Rice Noodle and half a roasted duck. The duck was SO juicy, skin was very crispy. The beef rice noodle which has one 'chili' sign but was only mildly spicy and left a tingling sensation on the lips due to the spicy peppercorn oil. The rice noodle was very smooth. The restaurant was remodeled and now it is very spacey. Service was timely and attentive although we had to order using QR code. I am glad we rediscovered this place and will visit again for sure. read more

Sooo good. Almost every dish I had here hit. As their name says, they are known for their rice noodles, and I can definitely see why. So slippery and chewy in texture; perfect vesicle for picking up their flavorful broths and: or dry options. Gotta get the spicy braised beef, mala beef (if you like spicier), and chicken zha jiang (umami flavor bomb). The toasted duck here is very juicy and flavorful as well (wouldn't recommend the sauce on the side that it comes with. Everything else was good, aside from the handmade layered pancake:/ The place is very brightly lit and seems to be connected by hallway with. another Chinese restaurant. Everything was clean and the people were so nice and accommodating too! read more

TLDR: Great BBQ, reminds me of YaoYao It's a bit odd that a Changsha restaurant has good HK-style BBQ. But I guess it's because they share the same kitchen as Jade Tea Garden, which is next door. This place is supposed to be a more casual affair. Prices certainly aren't. Just the 2 of us and we paid $90 for 2 BBQ noodle dishes, a BBQ plate and a veggie. A bit pricey.... I really liked their Char Siu... too bad when we got there, it was almost out. So they substituted half with roast pork. Anyway, the char siu reminds me of the ones at Yao Yao. My wife thinks they're even better. Hard to say, since I feel like I got the dregs, so to speak. But they were still tasty. Just... a bit too fatty for my tastes. My wife really liked her roast duck rice noodle. Her only complaint was that there wasn't nearly enough soup. But that was resolved pretty easily by asking for more soup. After that, she was as happy as a clam in mud. I really liked the cauliflower bowl. It was sauteed with a lot of taste, had a great smoky charred flavor. The roast pork was also very crunchy, and the fat layers were easy to distinguish. Definitely going to be a go-back place! read more

Changsha Rice Noodles is located in Cupertino Village. Parking can be a bit hectic here, but it is not too bad, if you park a bit further away. I guess they are part of Jade Tea Garden or share a space. I found this spot and their online hours state that they close at midnight and it was only around 10 PM at the time. I ordered through the 39miles platform, which is stated as preferred by the business. I ordered their Roast Duck Rice Noodles and it stated the order was in process on the ordering platform. I waited about 20-25 minutes and headed over to find everything either closed or starting to close in the plaza, I walked towards the restaurant and it was completely dark - I peeked inside and it was completely empty. At this point, I gave up and left. I was glad I did not pay yet, but it still sucked that this happened. It took me so long to find food that sounded good in the area that was still opened. Overall, maybe their hours were not properly changed or they just closed early on certain days / the day I visited, but I do not know for certain because there was no one around to ask - still a waste of time though. read more

I ordered the chicken gizzard rice noodle, so it tasted good, but a bit too spicy for me. The portion was large so quite worth the price. can't comment on service or ambiance since I haven't visited the place on site. I mostly order delivery. read more

Met up with some old coworkers in Sunnyvale at this pretty authentic hunan restaurant. There are 2 in this plaza, this location is next to to fantasia tea or it says fantasia around it. For a Sunday evening parking was pretty busy but there's a parking garage right across from it. We got a table for 5. We ordered 2 bowls of their beef and rice noddle soup (so good), beef and lamb skewers (I loved the seasoning, quite spicy), roasted duck (very crispy), and dumplings. We still had leftovers for 5 people and it was very affordable like less than $30 a person. I would def come back and even order out skewers. Service was quick and efficient. We ordered via QR code on the phone. read more

Went there for dinner and ordered the special 1/2 roasted duck $15, grilled oysters $6 for 3 oysters and the braised beef noodle soup. They all tasted good. The noodle soup can be hotter. It was more like room temperature with small pieces of beef chunks and preserved vegetables. The oysters had too much topping on it but it was still good. The duck was the best out of the 3. Will go back to try other dishes. read more

Must order: Roast Duck (crispy skin) yum! Noodles were ok nothing special Handmade dumplings were tasty and great portion. Grill chicken skewers were not grill and more like deep fried. read more

Recommended by a friend whose mother is a huge critic on Chinese bbq because she knows the good stuff straight from China and approved of this place's duck. You can tell they do their duck well because it takes a bit of time after ordering it to receive your duck dish. Of course, we had to get their duck noodle soup, and as anticipated, the crispy skin was delicious. It's cooked well because the fat just melts and you can't really pick that layer of fat out the way you might when the skin isn't cooked all golden. The lai fun (rice noodles) were also super soft and tasted freshly made. Like any bustling Chinese restaurant, expect it to be busy and for there to be a wait. The service is as good as any yummy Chinese place is (if you know, you know ) The owner says it's expensive to keep up with the rental bills and costs of quality ingredients. Let's keep this place open! TLDR: solid place from some good Chinese bbq and noodles. read more

Came here on Sunday, and their official weekend hours clearly say 10:30AM-3:00PM. We arrived at 2:30PM, well before closing, and were flat-out rejected. If you've decided to stop serving customers before 3:00PM, then UPDATE YOUR BUSINESS HOURS. Don't advertise that you're open until 3:00PM and then turn people away 30 minutes early. That's misleading and a complete waste of customers' time. We showed up hungry, planned around your posted hours, and were told no. If you're closed, close your doors and update your information. read more

The duck here was actually so good & their portions are huge. Everything was super hot and fresh which made it so much better- the only note is they don't put a warning on the spice level so we were dying lolol (and we can get eat pretty spicey) I will probably ask them to lower the heat next time but the bun was my absolute fav!! read more

The roasted duck is very fresh and delicious. It would be a mistake to not order one. As for the beef noodle, the noodle portion is good but the meat portion is definitely on the small side. Overall it's delicious but doesn't blow your mind away. For service, it's next to 0. They don't give you small bowls nor spoon for your noodle soup. When I ordered too much and ask for a container to pack up, l was given the container without a lid nor a plastic bag. How am I supposed to take my noodle soup home without a lid? Common sense or experience is lacking here. Granted, the staff don't seem to be experienced and there seems to be no manager nor anyone experienced enough to train them. So I don't blame them. read more

The duck is excellent. Note the 15.99 1/2 duck special is only for dine in. To go is $21

the establishment is spacious. i was sat at a booth and ordered the rice noodle with roasted duck. the roasted duck was juicy. they give you a good portion. the noodle came with no broth, but it did have minced garlic and spicy pickled veggies. i was under the impression that it was a soup noodle, so maybe i misunderstood, but there was no sauce either. i tried mixing everything, but it was still flavorless and dry noodles topped with duck. when trying to pay, it is hard to flag down staff. the place just needs a bit more care and sprucing up. read more

Yummy noodles will go back someday to this noodles place. Good ambience and service. I wish the menu had more options.

So nasty. The beef noodle soup I got was so spicy the whole broth was just red oil. Undrinkable. And the beef was hard like jerky. Not really sure what's going on here. Came when they just opened and won't be coming back again. read more

Tried the roast duck noodles. The noodles themselves are tasty and very Q/tender, the duck is decent roast duck. Good service. Just a bit overprice by a few dollars but this is Cupertino. Not worth the long wait as it just opened, perhaps wait until the hype settles down. Worth a try. read more
