    It's been a while since I last came to Dun Huang, so was excited to try it here especially as it's a location I've never been to. It wasn't too busy when I came here at 7:30, but more and more people came over time. I had their braised beef noodle soup and their Chinese burger. Service was really fast, especially the noodle soup! I think I got it in less than 5 minutes so they definitely prep it before hand. I still really enjoy the dish. The burger did take a bit longer me, probably 10 mins or so and I got the lamb. They did say lamb maybe a bit spicy, but it wasn't too bad for me.

    My friends came here on a Sunday evening around 6:30 and there was no wait to be seated for a party of 4. There were only a few people in the restaurant at the time and it was recommend to us as one of the more affordable restaurants in Long Island city. Looking for some spice, I ordered the handpulled noodles and ordered the spicy chilli oil spill noodles and also spilt a side of spicy lamb skewers with a friend. I would note that most of this menu is using a beef base but there are limited handpulled noodle dishes that are vegetarian or don't use a beef base. The service was nice and the food was out within 15 mins, although our noodles arrived before our lamb skewer appetizers. The noodles were nice and warm and despite the spice logo next to the dish on the menu, I was surprised about how perfect the spice was in the dish. It was not covered with pepper corn or too spicy to consume. In fact it was quite mild but extremely flavorful. I would definitely order again. The lamb skewers came out nice and warm and only having 4 made me wish I ordered more. Overall, I was surprised by the level of flavor and mild but tasty spice levels on the dishes here. Great and relatively affordable handpulled noodles that I will be coming back for to try more.

    Cheap eats. We were heading to the airport and stopped here to grab lunch when they opened. It was cold outside and they were not quite open yet. They let us wait inside which was nice. Cucumbers have a slight spicy to them. So because for kids. Everything was good. You can choose your noodles which is what we love.

    Everything hit the spot for me at this location. The soup was such a comforting hug in the cold weather. Right when I walked in the first thing I noticed was how clean and spacious everything was, friendly attentive staff. My party ordered the beef skewers the beef noodle soups and thinly potato sliced salad. I LOVE the thinly sliced potato salad. I would also point out that I enjoy the East coast locations better than the west coast locations of Dun Huang.

    I got takeout from Dun Huang on a Saturday evening as I was looking for a good noodle soup in the area. Their most popular dish is the #1 signature beef noodles. I noticed they had a second menu with new items, including a spicy Mala noodle. The service was good, the hostess took our takeout order and let us make modifications. You get to choose your noodle size. The place had a few tables full and a few empty, it would be great to walk in here for dinner. All indoor seating vibes. The mala noodle was so spicy, and it was difficult for me to finish! I love spicy food but this one was no joke. It was good though, I think I would go back but order their signature with chili oil on the side to control the spice level

    Dun Huang is a modern, cute, casual space that offers a to-the-point menu, very good size and portions, and will not break the bank in nyc. The stars of the menu are the noodle dishes with some ability to customize noodle size. There are also a few other chinese classic entree options as well. I ordered the Zha Jian Noodles, the noodles were super bouncy and chewy which I loved. The sauce was savory and filling and paired well with the fresh cucumbers. A very simple dish that hit the spot but not a super strong flavor overall. Service was super fast (received noodles almost immediately after ordering) and friendly.

    N1. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, lamb dry noodles
    Joanna P.

    The perfect meal on a cold and rainy day. It's quick, affordable, and consistent. You really can't go wrong with any of the noodles. I got the Signature Lanzou Beef Noodles ($13) and the Lamb Dry Noodles ($13). Both were delicious but i'd say the dry noodles were a standout for me because it was so flavorful and had a good kick to it. I also love that you can pick out the type of noodle you want for each dish! There's a good amount of seating but I could see how it could get packed pretty quick. Highly recommend takeout if you're coming during a lunch or dinner rush. I did feel like the service was a bit rushed even though it was pretty empty when I went, to the point where they wanted to clear our plates before we were even done.

    Solid food. Functional space. No frills really but overall it's clean and comfortable. Service is quick and efficient. Food skews spicy. That should be obvious. But there's complexity underneath the spice. And I love how lamb is a big part of the menu. Mutton was nice and gamey. Spiced beef, mouth watering chicken and pan fried noodles were all done well. Will have to come back for the Lanzhou noodles.

    Yelp tip to check in and show the waitress for an eggplant salad!! I really wanted noodles and Dun Huang was a convenient spot close to Grand Central, but away with some tourists. It was super open around 2pm on a weekend, and service was very quick. The broth left more to be desired, but is a quick and easy spot to grab a bite. I just got the langzhou la mien which was decent, but not great.

    This was a cute little noodle place with heartwarming soup. I wish I added more things to it cuz the baseline is actually not that much food--just radish and some meat. The soups were pretty much ready immediately, which means if you're hungry, they definitely got you with fast service.

    Eggplant Salad. 4 stars. Insta/Beli: @amei_eats
    Alex M.

    (Overall: B) - Danhuang seems to be quite a reasonable option for relatively affordable and quick Chinese eats with a modest interior. The food seems to be flavorful and authentic, and would recommend overall. (Eggplant Salad: B) - The cut side of the eggplant is able to absorb the flavors quite nicely; however, unlike a cucumber or some other vegetable that is able to maintain a crunch. Nevertheless, this is a simple dish that works quite nicely as an appetizer. (Mouthwatering Chicken: A) - Flavorful chicken that has depth of flavor built from both the poaching liquid and the sauce on top. (Sweet and Sour Ribs: C) - These ribs develop some pleasant flavors, but for some reason these riblets do not have much meat attached to the bone. (Lanzhou Noodle Soup: B) - The noodles have beautifully developed flavor and pair well with the soothing soup that is primarily white pepper and msg. The few slices of meat and daikon are tender and reasonable given the pricepoint. -- Food: +1 Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: E Menu: +1 Overall: +2 B Insta/Beli: @amei_eats

    Overall, I was really happy with the food although I got the dry noodles and I didn't realize they'd be all stuck together in a clump. But once you stir them up a bit and get the oil mixed in it's fine. My only other issue is I'm not great with chopsticks and all the lamb fell to the bottom but that's my issue. I should ask for a fork. The service was excellent. Overall good experience.

    N1. Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup
    Stephen C.

    One of my favorite Chinese spots for some quick and delicious homestyle noodles! My go-to order is always the N1 Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup, which always hits the spot no matter the time of day, but hits especially well when the air is brisk outside. I'll sometimes add a Chinese Hamburger if I'm particularly hungry, which pairs flawlessly with the noodle soup. Service is probably the quickest and most attentive I have seen in NYC, and prices are still reasonable. 5 stars!

Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

    We started out in Chelsea, aiming for Chinatown. The bus was twenty minutes off. "Is it worth…read morewaiting?" I asked T. "We can go someplace else." "How 'bout there?" he responded pointing to Excellent Dumpling House. It was directly across the street. I pulled up Yelp, saw good reviews and readily agreed. At 3:30, the restaurant was empty. There were a few takeout orders, but we were the only people sitting down for late lunch. And y'know ... it was pretty good. Wonton soup is what I'd expect in Chinatown. Wonton wrappers were thin -- my preference -- the stuffing delicious and the broth flavorful. They were generous with the beef in our chow fun. Good, but the noodles needed a jolt. So I asked for soy sauce which was sort of a solution. Shrimp with vegetables was great. A lot of shrimp, too. There are lunchtime specials on weekdays, reasonable prices, and nice people work there. Next time it makes sense to try dumplings since it is, after all a dumpling house.

Located within the historic Chelsea Market building--a former Nabisco factory where Oreo cookies were first produced--the restaurant feels theatrical in the best possible way. The soaring ceilings, dramatic lighting, and energetic atmosphere create a sense of occasion from the moment you walk in. It feels less like simply going out to dinner and more like stepping into a beautifully staged production. I started with a Botanist Gin Martini with a twist, which paired wonderfully with the meal. The surprise star of the evening was the new Cucumber Tiger Salad. The balance of flavors was exceptional: bright acidity, a pleasant touch of heat, and just enough mint to make each bite feel fresh and exciting. Every so often the mint would come through and suddenly all the flavors would click together in a way that made me immediately want another bite. This is a dish I would happily order again. Next came the Edamame Dumplings. They were delicate and comforting, especially when enjoyed with the accompanying broth. The broth adds depth and richness that elevates the entire dish. My only suggestion would be the slightest touch more salt, perhaps even a finishing sprinkle of black volcanic salt for both flavor and presentation. I also found myself wishing there were a bit more of that delicious broth because it contributes so much to the overall experience. For my entrée, I ordered the Glazed Alaskan Black Cod, and it absolutely lived up to its reputation. The fish was rich, buttery, and perfectly prepared. What impressed me most was how thoughtfully the accompaniments were composed. The pickled cucumbers brought brightness, acidity, and crunch, while the black bean and eggplant relish delivered deep savory notes and unexpected complexity. I'm generally not an eggplant fan, but this relish was outstanding. The cucumbers and relish sit at opposite ends of the flavor spectrum, yet both somehow make the cod even better. Looking back, I think a glass of Sauvignon Blanc alongside the cod would have been the perfect pairing. I finished with the Miso Caramel Milk Bar, which was spectacular. Decadent, sweet, salty, and touched with just enough umami to keep every bite interesting. The chocolate crumble underneath added a wonderful crunch that contrasted beautifully with the creamy ice cream and luscious caramel sauce. Every component worked together perfectly, creating a dessert that was both indulgent and sophisticated. From start to finish, the meal felt polished, thoughtful, and memorable. Thank you!

I also tried the Blush cocktail which was similar to a lychee martini. I loved it and it was perfectly sweet. Overall it was on the pricey side once we split everything, but the vibes were great for a nice night out.

Sauce was super tasty and thick. On the side was broccoli which was fine and eggplant which was fine on its own and good with the chili sauce. Split the Fortune Cookie Red Velvet Cake which okay I thought there would be more creativity with adding fortune cookies somewhere in the cake but it was just a cake with fortune cookies on top.

The hand-pulled noodles *gasp* weren't hand pulled. "BBQ" chicken in the other noodles was very dry. Sea bass portion was very small. Scallion pancakes were good. Shrimp dumplings were the highlight. I recommend skipping this restaurant.
