    I had heard about this restaurant for a long time, but I always hesitated to try it because I'm not very good at eating spicy food. This time, I decided to give it a try. I was happy to see that there were some non-spicy options on the menu. Among the three noodle dishes (one spicy and two non-spicy)we ordered, my favorite was the pork rib and chanterelle noodles, which had a flavorful broth and chewy noodles. The pork ribs were perfectly cooked -- so tender and soft. Although there weren't many chanterelles, the broth was still quite savory. We also ordered fried stinky tofu, which was quite special and worth a try.

    I've heard people describe noodles as "bouncy," and I've even used the term myself, but I never truly understood what that meant until I ate at Hunan Mifen. Their rice noodles are unbelievably slick and bouncy! There's really no better way to describe them. Somehow, I must have walked past this place a dozen times without noticing it tucked away in the back corner of the plaza. The menu is helpful, with photos and a clear chili pepper legend: no chili pepper means you're safe, one chili pepper is when things start getting dangerous, and as for two or three? I wouldn't know I was already sweating at one. The meat wasn't as tender as I expected, but I appreciated the DIY station with cilantro, black vinegar, and scallions for customizing flavors. If you like spicy food, this spot is a must visit!

    So good! Got a table right away and ordered through a QR code. Food came out in minutes! Ordered a delicious spicy beef soup that was so incredibly flavorful! Rice noodles had a good texture and appreciated the generous portion of pickled vegetables.

    Hunan Mifen is one of our regular spots for a good noodle fix. The ordering system can be confusing at first, so recommend looking at dishes online or on Yelp to decide what you want. I've gotten the signature beef noodles (just once) and the braised beef noodles (multiple times). Their warning is warranted - the spicy beef noodles are no joke! The flavor is there, I just personally wouldn't go that spicy again. There's rarely a wait when we go to the Saratoga Ave location, and we're always able to stay and order more.

    Hunan Mifen is a good option for anyone who wants a quick lunch or dinner after work and are around the area. I came on a thursday during lunch, and the restaurant was filled very quickly. The soup broth was decent and not too heavy, the super spicy beef bones came on the side, so you can add them in based on your own spicy preferences. They are quite spicy, so be careful! The spices from the beef do add a nice flavour to the soup, and it makes the overall dish quite delicious.

    Spicy Noodles and Popcorn Chicken

    Came here with some friends after badminton, and we were pretty hungry so we tried to find some place that was close by. One of them suggested this restaurant, and since I hadn't heard about it before I was curious to try it out. The interior isn't too large, but our group of 4 was able to be seated pretty quickly inside. I decided to try their spicy noodles along with their popcorn chicken, which both were served relatively quickly. They give a pretty good portion size, and the soup does have a kick to it! The flavors in it were great and the consistency of the noodles was solid, with the solid, juicy chunks of meat adding to the experience. The popcorn chicken were also great, and honestly rank pretty high up there in terms of ones I've had. Definitely recommend checking this place out, and I'm glad my friend suggested it!

    5 stars for Special Rice Noodles with Beef Bone (super spicy). We came in towards the closing time and the staff was extremely patient and kind. We love spicy food - but keep in mind, it TRULY IS SPICY! The braised pork belly with noodles was just ok - 3.5 stars but good amount of meat! The portions were generous. My friend and I could've shared just the one dish and been full, instead of the two we ordered. The setup is simple. You order on your phone, add your credit card, and they bring out your food.

    Hot noodle soup in winter time= best combo The soup base is very flavorful and very hot. I especially like the tomato beef stew. The meat is SO tender with very flavorful tomato. Definitely recommended. They also have a lot of spicy options for those who loves to challenge! Plenty of sitting. Spacious with very friendly servers. Lots of parking. Will definitely return!

    Amazing spice level with broth!

    So delicious! This is the type of noodle shop I could not find while in Texas and was so eager to get back to the Bay Area for. We had stopped by after doing some car shopping and given that I am six months pregnant, I was naturally starving. They do not scrimp on the spice levels which is EXACTLY what I wanted. Service was quick-- the broth we had was so delicious and you could see the nutrient quality in it. I am going to have order some broth for post partum after I have my babies. It was a very clean establishment as well!

    Tried a noodle place today and was pleasantly surprised! It is in the same shopping center as Lion Market (supermarket!). I ordered the rice noodles with beef flank and it was super tasty! I ordered the food to go and it was ready when I arrived. The broth was still very hot when I returned home and was good. Not too salty nor bland. It came with the meat separated from the noodles as was the broth. It also had a small cup of cilantro and green onions chopped up that was fresh. The noodles were very soft (like they should be) while still firm. Overall a very good meal!

    Rice Noodles Topped with Bu Beans and Minced Pork
    Vicky Y.

    Had a stressful week? This is THE PLACE to go for a sweat-dripping, nose-blowing bowl of spicy noodles that will make all your problems disappear (...temporarily, until you finish your food and have to face reality?)! I was a bit skeptical of this place since it doesn't have a lot of reviews, but Hunan Mifen is so authentic and I love that the staff walked around to pass out napkins to every table, knowing that we burn through it quickly to wipe our sweat, tears, and mucus away. Here's what we got: Rice Noodles with Pickled Cabbage and Beef Brisket (5/5): the noodle texture was absolutely incredible-- so bouncy and slurp-able. The broth was so flavorful yet light, and while I'm not typically the biggest fan of pickled veggies, these pickled veggies complimented the noodle soup so well! Then to top it off, this was most tender beef briskets I've ever had! This dish has one chili sign and it's equivalent to a Hot Ones spice level 3, which is not bad at all. Rice Noodles Topped with Bu Beans and Minced Pork (4.5/5): the noodles were, again, phenomenal. When you mix all the toppings together with the dry noodle, the dish become so flavorful. Personally, I think this dish is a bit saltier than my palate prefers. Though this dish only has one chili sign on the menu, the spiciness was equivalent to a Hot Ones spice level 7, so beware! I can't imagine how 3 chili signs would taste... Salty Crispy Chicken (5/5): the chicken was soooo juicy and they were perfectly fried. The batter was amazing and not overly salty. Green Bean Soup (4.5/5): the soup was delicious and refreshing, but it is sweeter than the average green bean soup.

    I've come here multiple times and this place is always delicious. If you are looking for spicy rice noodles this is the place to go. The noodles are delicious and the service is fast and efficient. It doesn't take long to get your noodles after you order it. The restaurant is right next to a Chinese market called lion market so very convenient to do shopping after you eat.

    Very good! Nice to try The taste is likely to be Chinese food. I recommend this rice noodle with braided beef!

    It's a hidden gem in the Evergreen area. Way better than commercialized Panda Express. I'm so sad I…read morecan't gate keep this business because honestly the food is too good to keep a secret! The front desk worker is always the same woman; she gets my order and that's all I need! No need for special how are you doing, nice to see you, how's everything nonsense- she's got customers always coming in and they're always busy! Those who know- KNOW. But here's a tip: the phone is unreliable- your best bet for an order would be to come in person**** Portion servings are always way more than you need- there's a TON of value for the price point they give; one of the top reasons of why I always keep coming back. The food is delicious! Definitely recommend the bbq chicken fried rice and sweet and sour pork. Seating area is more so just for waiting for pickup. No sit down and eat since tables are stacked up. Ignore the dust and cobwebs ambiance because trust me the food is worth it. I'm going to go here forever!

    Not the same Mayflower that I went to growing up but this place did NOT disappoint…read more We were in the mood for dim sum on the way to the T&T grocery store opening and yelp brought us here. We walked in right at opening to a completely empty dining room. Instead of leaving, we browsed the menu and ordered XLB, pot stickers, jelly fish, and pea sprouts (my personal fav) so glad we didn't leave! The XLB are a nice size, with each precious dumpling cradled in its own foil wrapper for maximum soup retention. The potstickers were full of flavor, packed with protein, delicately wrapped, and had the crispiest, golden bottoms! Jelly fish was fresh and the pea sprouts were a hit! The poor owner answering the phones made sure (in all languages) to inform folks calling in that there were a different May Flower than the other place-felt terrible for her but also understood the importance of differentiating right up front. I can only imagine the number of misorders they have probably dealt with. By the time we were done, the dining room was filled with a mix of what seemed like regulars, locals, large groups of families, small groups of friends... this feels like we stumbled upon a tiny hole in the wall restaurant where everyone who has been before just knows the quality and taste they are going to be getting! Highly recommend you check this place out for a dine in or take out order!

    Mayflower was the first Chinese restaurant I visited when I moved to the bayarea. After more than…read more15 years I decided it was time to check them out again. This is one of the handful of American Chinese restaurants that stood the test of time. As is typical of these places, there was an old lady manning the counter and also acting as the server. And as is typical of these places, there was table at the end where they were prepping the fruits and veggies. It's truly remarkable how they are all similar in these ways! We got a couple of dishes and they came out at lightning speed. * Chowmein-3/5- delicious with lots of umami flavor but shockingly greasy. I mean I am used to oily noodles but this one exceeded some limits. *crispy salt and pepper eggplant-3/5- I had a stellar version of this dish at another restaurant in Sunnyvale and was stoked when I saw this on the menu here. Unfortunately it was a poor representation of the dish I loved there. The batter was too much and the dish felt heavy. The hot oil or sauce they had felt old and extremely vinegary as well, I would recommend avoiding it.
