Came here after a long day trip and it was so satisfying. The hand-pulled noodles was the carb overload I was looking for. Perfect chewy bites and a lot of noodle-thickness options. I ordered wide (and they were great), but next time, I actually would go for extra-wide. The spicy lamb burger is extremely flavorful as well. It was packed and I was actually surprised. Definitely will be coming back! read more

Food: The food is excellent and tasty here! I tried the wood ear mushrooms, zhajiang noodles, big pan chicken over rice, and the mala noodles. Everything was very well made and delicious. I would recommend the big pan chicken. The portions of noodles aren't large so getting a side dish or appetizer is a good idea. For the noodle dishes, you're able to choose the type and thickness of the noodle you want. They also offer a combo meal for $15 which includes a noodle soup, soda and an appetizer. Service: Service was good. Staff are attentive and friendly. Ambiance: The restaurant is spacious and seating is comfortable. They are able to accommodate small and large groups. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant! read more

Top tier. I'm so glad I found a spot relatively near, where I can get my noodles and a spicy cumin lamb burger fix whenever the crave hits. I took a shot based on Yelp reviews and they did not steer me wrong. I ordered from a few blocks away and it was ready by the time I arrived. I was initially worried about the noodles, since they clumped together in one big block by the time I brought them home. But as soon as were placed in the warm broth of the beef braised noodle soup, they dispersed immediately. They remained toothy in texture, and did not just disintegrate. I thought it might be a mushy mess, but it was not! The beef was tender, with bok choy giving that needed crunch and green-ness. The burger was fantastic, the bread similar to Indian paratha bread. The lamb was delicious and tender, as were the skewers. The entire meal was inexpensive, always a plus. They have a dining area, seems spacious enough and nice for an evening out. The location is a busy one, 60th street being a bustling thruway so be careful. The parking situation is... what parking? Good Luck, IYKYK. I double parked and ran in and out... when in Brooklyn. read more

The food was absolutely amazing No complaints about anything. Ordered hand stretched noodles with brisket, beef on rice, bokchoi and egg, super tender and delicious! Bbq beef, shrimp with the most amazing flavor glaze. Chefs deserve a raise! Outstanding, fresh, perfectly seasoned. Parking is available around the corner on 9th ave between 60-61st streets and On 61st between 9-8th ave. After that feast a little walk in fresh air is needed! Other times there is parking in front of restaurant on 60th street 8-9th ave. Definitely 5 read more

Fast service. Food was alright. The crispy chicken was the best of all the food we ordered. The lamb screwers did not have lamb flavors so that was the down side... it tasted more like duck meat. The noodles were alright. read more

Wifey and I had the signatures. This was a random Saturday. I wanted more flavor and aromatics from the soup. Unfortunately all I got was salt. The broth is salty. The spicy soup wasn't really spicy.

Came for lunch on Monday and was seated without wait. We ordered the signature Lanzhou beef noodles one spicy and one non spicy version. Food was served quickly. I had the spicy version and the soup was not spicy at all. It was a good touch of spice and overall tasted good. The noodles are nice but seemed to clump together. I noticed a few small clumps that weren't cooked properly. Other than that, the noodles and flavors are good. Would come back to try the beef burger / sandwich and the cold noodles. read more

Dun Huang - Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Overall: 4.5/5 If you're craving cheap eats and good comfort food, this is the place! They have a combo deal that includes the signature noodles, Soda and a burger for around $13. I think it's super worth it. The only thing I would say is that the lamb burger isn't made like a typical 肉夹馍. The burger itself isn't flaky which was a letdown but still very good. The noodles itself was super flavorful. You can choose your spice level and of course I went with no spicy haha. Food is served very quickly and the service/ambiance was very nice. I am definitely coming back to try other items on the menu! read more

Dun Huang - Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

3.5/5: Surprisingly enjoyed the appetizers more than their noodle soup! Chicken Salad: not really a salad because this is Kou Shui Ji, which is chicken in chili oil. The chicken is near perfection for me: soft and thinly cut, perfect for the sauce. Good portion Mung Bean Noodles: I did think these would be a lot thicker but really enjoyable as well! Texture is good. I ate it together with the cold chicken dish, which you should totally do as well as it's a great combination per bite! Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup: here's where I was a bit let down. The noodles itself are good, but everything else is just on the plain side for me. If you're looking for a cleaner tasting noodle soup, this is probably it, but I was expecting a little bit more spice, a little bit more flavor, just a little bit more overall. Spicy Cumin Lamb Burger: the lamb is decent, but the burger (bun) part is a no read more

Loved everything here from the service to the food. I came here on a weekday afternoon and the restaurant was almost completely empty. I ordered their recommended noodle dish and it was absolutely delicious. I also ordered the mala potatoes as an appetizer but it was way too heavy for one person. I would definitely come back here with the bigger group and explore more of the menu. read more

Ordered takeout from here on a weekday around 5pm. Place was empty and workers were just sitting around chatting. I ordered the Signature Lan Zhou Beef Noodle, soy & wine braised beef noodle, and a spicy cumin lamb burger. Total came out to be $26. Very affordable food. Only had to wait 10 minutes, so pretty quick but then again, I was the only customer inside. They packed the noodles in a separate container from the soup/broth, which is good for takeout -- you don't want to end up with soggy noodles by the time you get home and eat. I wanted to try this place out because I was in the mood for some spicy noodles. The signature lanzhou beef noodle is supposed to be spicy because they also have a non spicy option on the menu. I asked the server for extra spicy too, but upon first sip of the broth, I did not find it spicy at all. I see chili flakes in the broth so I know they did add some sort of spice but the spice is so mild that I don't really taste it. I was left disappointed because I wanted a spicy noodle. Other than that, the noodle tasted good but pretty basic. The broth for the braised beef noodle was also not spicy at all. Unlike the lanzhou soup, i didn't see any spice/color in the braised beef broth. Mind you, both noodles came with a chili sign (indicating it's spicy) on the menu so I'm not expecting something that's not supposed to be there. So if you're a spicy lover and came in expecting spicy noodles, go somewhere else. The braised beef was super tender though. The spicy cumin lamb burger was good too -- not super flavorful but it was still good. $5 for one, not a bad at all. Overall, I would rate this place a 3.5 star. It's a decent, affordable joint in sunset park neighborhood, but the noodles left much to be desired. read more

Starting off, they barely greeted us in the entrance. They never brought water over until we specifically asked for water. Usually water is brought without asking. Their whole attitude was nonchalant and uncaring. Took forever to bring us a spoon despite us being the closest to the kitchen. The food represent the workers' attitude. Seeing the reviews, I expected it to be more flavorful but the taste greatly disappointed. While the environment was nice and looked clean. read more

The hand pulled noodles are freshly made here and is probably my fav dish here. I personally think their best stuff is spicy so if you cant handle spicy I wouldn't like it here.

I came recently because I was craving their wide noodles. Came for late lunch 4:30pm by myself Ordered the #1 noodles and 2 orders of the pork belly wrapped enoki mushrooms. The noodles was great but overall disappointing. The radishes was oddly sliced and the beef looked more like pork. Very thinly slice and fried like it's ham. Abit hard in texture and not appetizing. Love love love the pork belly enoki!!! I would get that again! read more

If you're looking for a quick dinner spot in 8th Ave, Dun Huang fits the bill! Emphasis on the quick. Not even 3 minutes in, our food came. You can customize the noodle type, but I got the regular lol. Regardless of the dish being labeled spicy, you can ask the workers to lower the spiciness which I appreciate. Some stores are hard set on their spice level. My Braised Beef Sirloin Noodle ($9.50) was not shabby at all! I didn't know how much I missed Lanzhou style noodles until I had this. The spice was right at my tolerance, and the broth was so flavorful! The noodles were also rightly soft and had good pull. The meat was sort of dry, but not a deal breaker. The Stewed Pork Burger ($4.25) was sadly small, but tasted great! The smell reminded me of soup from home, but the actual taste was not as pungent. The meat wedged between bao really warms the heart, although I do wish there was just a tad more flavor. You know a spot is authentically Chinese when they have C-pop hits playing. They didn't check up on us to refill our water, but they sure knew when to drop the bill. Nonetheless, they seem to be very clean, and still give out disposable utensils. With the attention to cleanliness, comfortable ambiance and great food, I'd totally come back whenever I am craving some noodles! read more

Good Chinese music, delicious food, fast service - what else more could you ask for? I got the Signature Lanzhou beef noodles with EXTRA WIDE noodles while my friend got the Braised Beef Noodle with regular noodles. I was feeling adventurous but stick with the regular, it's much better. The extra-wide noodles stuck together and just didn't hit the same. As for the broth, wow that was some amazing stuff! I don't usually drink noodle broths but I nearly cleaned the bowl this time. It was delicate but DEEP in flavor. The beef slices were a bit dry though. My friend's broth was rich and delicious in a different way. Really appreciate the staff taking orders seriously cause I requested mine to be only A LITTLE BIT spicy cause I can't handle spice well and that raindrop of chili was solid proof. There are jars of chili and vinegar on the table if you want to tailor your food. We also each got a strewed pork burger though we thought we ordered 1 to share. Luckily(?) that did not happen cause they were much smaller than expected. It was hot and flavorful with the bits of fatty pork inside. Wish there was some kind of sauce glazed on top though. Overall, really enjoyed my dinner here and 10/10 would go again! read more

My office orders from Dun Huang around every few months for lunch and food has always been delivered on time and delicious. I usually get the Lan Zhou beef noodle soup with a side of the eggplant salad and it's always a great combination and I usually have enough for another meal as well. Flavor of both are great especially that eggplant salad! The regular noodles are my favorite to go with the soup. Well cooked and the perfect mix of soft and chewy. read more

I liked this place because it was super casual and the food was good. I ordered their spicy signature. The broth was light but flavorful. Noodles had a good texture. I think the beef was sliced the wrong way but not a big deal. Their pig intestine was also good if you are into that kind of thing. They lacked the chewyness I was used to (neither a good nor bad thing). I recommend coming here if you are looking for a quick lunch and are looking for noodles. read more

Came here with a friend on a Monday afternoon since we were both off, because I was craving their noodle broth. Crystal had introduced this place to Steve and I a month or so ago, but I realized her usual picks for meal time were better than what I had picked. Moral of the story: ALWAYS GO WITH WHAT YOUR FRIEND SUGGESTS! We were both really tempted to get their watermelon juice, but it comes in a pitcher only, and not by the glass. Highly recommended to try if you're a party of 4 or more, so everyone can get a taste. It's so fresh and refreshing, you feel so good and sexy drinking it....at least I did. As a starter, I opted for their lamb "burger". It's not really a burger, as one would think of it, but it's shredded lamb on a springy and chewy Chinese version of an English muffin, with cumin sauce. It's a great option if you're totally starving and can't wait to shove something in your mouth. 10/10 in my book. It's a MUST have. I asked for the braised beef bowl with regular noodles, where Crystal got the thick ones; again, I didn't listen because I'm dumb. The thicker noodles cling to the beefy and slightly spicy sauce better, and makes slurping all the more satisfying. There's a great aroma to the bowl of piping hot noodles, and it's a truly comforting dish on a cool day. They have a great menu for all different tastes, and to me - this is an easy win when you can't decide where to go for an unscheduled lunch. A great new addition just off 8th Ave! read more

Updating review to note the consistency of Dun Huang at 8th Ave. Every single time the food never misses. Service is always good and food arrives fast. We recommend everything we've tried: Noodle soup, cold noodle, lamb or beef burgers, Big pan chicken over noodles, dry hot pot, any of the skewers. Every time we don't know what to eat for dinner, we end up back at Dun Huang because we know we won't be disappointed. read more

My friend wanted to come here for a quick bite. Party of 3 We ordered the mala noodle, skewers, hand pulled noodle and stirred Fried noodle. The noodle texture is def better than I had remembered. We finished all the food, that's a good sign that we all like it. I am glad they survived covid, many stores and restaurant were not able to make it. Did get a little thirsty afterward, must be a little too much on the seasoning. Will come back to support local business who listens to feedback and strive to do better. read more

Quality: 7/10 noodles are GOOD, soup tasted GREAT and the spice levels are just right, but the lamb skewers were a let down (cart skewers are definitely better) and the beef slices in the Lanzhou noodle had no taste Variety: 6/10 a fair amount of noodle soup dishes to choose from, as well as skewers, appetizers and family sized dishes to share Atmosphere/Cleanliness: 8/10 definitely not your average hand pulled noodle place, slightly more upscale which is reflected in the prices Service: 10/10 I went right when it opened so it was pretty empty Price: increased since opening based on previous reviews on Yelp, average price for a bowl of noodles is $8 Overall it wasn't a bad experience, but definitely could've been better. My advice is to just go for the noodle soups, but hold off on getting extra meat. read more

Dun Huang - Mala Noodles (bottom), Lanzhou Beef Noodles (top), and BBQ lamb skewers on the side - Noodles Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We entered the place and it wasn't super packed, but there were a few people in there. I thought the place looked really nice and clean! We ordered the signature Lanzhou beef noodle, and within a few minutes our order came out. We were able to customize it; some of use didn't like cilantro and they were able to take that off. Although there's chili oil on it, I thought it wasn't super spicy, so definitely add more chili oil that is on every table if you like your food spicy. I loved the chili oil and also the broth. It was really refreshing and the dish itself was really filling (to me). The noodles also had a nice homemade taste, you could tell it was made in house from the imperfections of the noodles (which is fine cause it's homemade). The bill came and it was around $27 for three bowls! So this place is definitely affordable and I will definitely be back to try the other dishes. read more

2nd time eating here and it's honestly not my first choice in terms of cuisine. If you are a fan of cumin and spicy food this could be a good option. Beef noodle soups are quite tasty with a nice broth and fresh noodles. The fried chicken wings are a miss as the breading was too thick and lacked flavor, the ketchup packets that come with it doesn't help. Nevertheless add with the pretty good service and reasonable prices, it deserves a solid 4 stars. read more

I came here for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. My friend and I ordered the grilled squid BBQ skewer, grilled eggplant, grilled scallops, and beef handpulled noodles. The grilled BBQ items were all tasty and we'll cooked. I enjoyed the grilled scallops the most since there was a spicy garlic sauce on top. The beef handpulled noodles were fresh and delicious. The handpulled noodles were handmade. There was a lot of beef but I wish it was spicier. Service was fast and friendly. The place was clean during COVID-19 times. There was outdoor and indoor seating. I would definitely come back if I'm ever in the area. read more

This place is way underrated. I've only been to this location and the service is always great. The food is consistent whether to go or to dine in. The Signature Lanzhou Beef noodle is a light broth but packed with flavor and aromatics. You choose the noodle thickness and I personally like "regular". The salads are amazing, garlic cucumber salad, eggplant salad, and shredded potato salad. I LOVE their home recipe chili oil which I dip the salads in. Their skewers are reallyyyyy good too, especially the beef that is marinated in a cumin seasoning with perfect bites of juicy beef. I like these beef skewers more than most of the neighborhood skewer stands. This hits the spot every time. read more

I was craving for some noodle soup and decided to yelp somewhere around sunset park. I remember wanting to try this place since few of my friends said it was good. My husband and I came here for early dinner. The place itself is pretty spacious and clean compare to some other restaurants around 8th ave. The tea that they offer is pretty interesting. Not sure what kind of tea it is but it is good. We ordered signature Lanzhou noodle, eggplant salad, shredded potato salad, stewed pork burger and spicy cumin lamb burger. The Lanzhou noodle is good, the noodle is homemade and the soup base is very light. I love the eggplant salad and shredded potatoes, it is really good too. I tried the stewed pork burger and thought it was mediocre. I didn't try the lamb burger since I don't like lamb but my husband said it taste better than the stewed pork. Compare to xian famous food, my husband said the buns is not as oily or greasy but he still likes xian better. Overall, the food was good and would definitely come back! read more

This restaurant caught my attention when I noticed they have the shredded potato salad. I had this at another restaurant before and they are now shut down and it is so hard to find. I had to come to Dun Huang and try it to make sure it is the same exact thing as what I had before and it is! For $4.95, it is a very decent size and it is delicious! Will definitely be coming back for this. I had the signature Lanzhou beef noodles and this was pretty good for $6.95. The chili oil added a lot of flavor to the broth without overpowering it. I also had the stewed pork burger and it was packed with flavor. Only thing I didn't like about it was there were a lot of fatty pieces of pork chopped up inside. I found myself picking it out and didn't end up with much pork in the end. The restaurant is pretty spacious and clean. They also have free wifi! Will definitely be coming back to try the other items on the menu! read more

Initially thought this was just another okay noodle spot on 8th Ave, but I was wrong. This place is so good! I love the fresh hand pulled noodles.

Dun Huang - Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles Soy & Wine Braised Beef Noodles & Extra Noodles - Noodles Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Was looking to try a new noodle soup place and stumbled upon this new establishment. We tried the Lan Zhou Signature Beef Noodle Soup, Dun Huang Cold Noodles, and Spicy Cumin Lamb Sandwich. Everything was pretty good, and although the portions aren't big compared to what the other restaurants in this neighborhood serves, they were just good enough to keep you from getting too full. I like that they let you choose the thickness of noodles for the dishes, which isn't a common thing in other Chinese noodle shops. I got the regular sized noodles, which had a nice firm texture similar to Ichiran's noodles. The Lamb meat in the burger was nice and lean, and the bread was toasted with a slight crunch which made it a lot better. I would recommend everything I got, and would definitely come back here sometime soon. read more

In a word? S-P-I-C-Y. If you're into northwestern Chinese food and can handle spicy peppers, then you'll love Dun Huang. They have multiple locations, but this is the first one in Brooklyn. Of course, a place like this is going to draw comparisons to la Xi'an Famous Foods), but I think Dun Huang is actually better! I got their signature spicy Lanzhou beef noodles and a spicy cumin lamb burger. All for under $12!!! The noodles were thick and springy, and the bowl was GIGANTIC. I thought I was almost done, but then I dug deeper into the bowl and there was still more than half a bowl left! Lots of red pepper, five slices of thin-cut beef, and chunks of crunchy daikon/turnip. SO GOOD! But I was definitely sweating my way through it. The cumin lamb was generously filled with cubed lamb in a nicely toasted bao. Was pretty good, and a great snack for just $4! Service was quick, and the people were nice (even though most of them only spoke Mandarin). The restaurant is spacious, with tons of seating, and a TV that was playing funny Chinese game shows. They're also running 2-for-1 beers right now, so head on in! read more
