I've been going to this place for many years and there has been changes in ownership every couple of years. I came here today and was told there's been another change most recently 2 months ago. This by far his has been the most pleasant visit. The food was fresh and the dumpling wrapper was thin. The soup dumplings were filled with soup and the pot stickers were pan fried to perfection. They've also added more dish options to the menu as well. They've updated their indoor decor and it's nice and clean. Highly recommend this place and will be back very soon! read more

It's been quite awhile since we've dined here. We came in not expecting to see the updated interior and learned that the business is under new management. I always preferred this spot for soup dumplings. And that's what we had today. Both my husband and I each ordered the Xiao Long Bao (8pc) along with a side of Bok Choy with Garlic. Gotta get in our greens! (I really wanted the Spinach with garlic but was told they sold out yesterday.) Everything was delicious. We even ordered one more Xiao Long Bao! What I really liked about the dumplings was that the exterior did not break when grabbed with chopsticks. Pliable. Soup stayed in the dumpling until I pierced it. (At Joyee, many times dumplings stick to the paper and rips. Soup spills out. The dough can be a little chewy.) We also had tea with our meal. My husband with the Taro Milk Tea with Boba and me with the Tropica Fruit Tea. My tea was quite refreshing. I forget everything that's in it but there's jasmine tea with a mix of fruit tea, a mint leaf, and pieces of fruit - strawberry, blueberry, pineapple. My husband enjoyed his drink too. Boba was nice and chewy. Dumplings were being made as we were leaving. Who doesn't love freshly made dumplings?! Almost forgot to mention that the service was great. The employee was very friendly and helpful. Stop by and support this small business! read more

I loved it. It had a very lovely ambience inside, beautifully decorated with relaxing traditional music playing. Felt like a nice date night ambience. Good prices on the food, especially for how much was served, and it was delicious. The noodles, fried chicken and fried rice hit the mark for the Hong Kong style food I like. Even though we came in near the end of the night, everyone was super friendly. read more

YUM!! So glad I gave this Chinese spot a try!! I admit I was hesitant in the beginning since San Diego usually doesn't have good Asian food but this place definitely was spectacular! This restaurant is quite small and is located at the end of a plaza so it can be easily missed. Parking was ok but can be difficult especially on the weekends since it's located inside a busy plaza. They're open daily 11am-9pm Inside was small with not too much seating. The furniture was a bit worn and not too clean. There were bits of food on each table but it could be I went when they first opened. I felt so bad for the girl that worked there because she had to take and bring out orders, clean, and in charge of cashier. Service was pretty good since there wasn't anyone there except my party. However, wait time was an issue - 20+ min for 3 issues. I can't imagine how long parties have to wait when it's busy. Ordering was easy! Once I was seated, I was given a sheet of paper to select the items I wanted! However, I noticed they were out of a lot of items and they just opened when I arrived! The Pork Xiao Long Bao ($10.95) came with 8 pieces. Each piece was pretty big and stuffed with plenty of pork! The pork was not too fatty and the soup inside was so flavorful. It tasted so fresh and delicious so this was definitely a must get! 10/10 Chicken Chow Mein ($13.95) was decent! The portion was huge and came in with plenty of ingredients! The noodles were so soft and fresh! However, it was lacking flavor and tasted quite bland. It didn't have that "pan fried" taste - in Chinese: "wok hay" so this was 7/10 Beef Noodle Soup ($12.99) was amazing! The broth was packed with flavor and so rich! The beef was so tender and not too fatty! The noodles were so fresh and soft! The veggies were fresh and had a good variety of green onions, cilantro, and broccoli! This was definitely a MUST and 10/10! Overall, I really enjoyed the food and would definitely return and recommend. read more

This place is so good!! The food tastes freshly made and has great flavors. Highly recommend starting off with the cucumber salad and edamame. We will definitely be going back to try some more items! Service was great as well, they were always checking in to make sure the food was good and if we needed anything else. TRY THIS PLACE OUT! read more

Kung Fu Noodle - Chicken dumplings, Edamame, Cucumber Salad, Pork Pork Xiao Long Bao - Dim Sum Near Me - Vista, California

I have been coming here for years at this point when my friend lived in the apartments right behind this restaurant showed me it. All I can say is wow. Their food is extremely authentic. The dumplings are all made infront of you as you walk in. Our highlighted dishes we always get is the Taiwanese fried chicken, the beef soup, the chicken dumplings, and the Dan Dan noodles, cucumber salad. This place has all that you would look for in a dim sum spot and more. Their service is quick and no frills like I would expect in an establishment of this nature. We will continue to come back! read more

Service is EXTREMELY SLOW and missing items ordered. Including us, there are 5 tables here. I had to order a beef noodle soup with udon noodles 3 times from multiple servers. Only when the kitchen staff came to our table did the right order get delivered. I also had to order steamed rice twice. Again it didn't arrive until the kitchen staff came. Server came by once as we are finishing to refill water. The change in ownership has really hurt this place. The +1 star was for the fantastic taste of the beef noodle soup. Definitely the star of the show. I really wanted to like this place since under previous ownership their food taste, menu selection, service, and prices were excellent. This place also used to be one of the only authentic mainland chinese restaurants in the entirety of North County without having to go to Convoy or Irvine. Sadly, this will be the last time we come here. read more

Here are a few strong review options you can copy‑paste depending on the vibe you want. All are based on what you told me -- the dumplings hit, and the beef noodles were next‑level. Service here is also fantastic every time we have went, everyone there truly cares about your experience there. read more

Kung Fu Noodle in Vista offers an authentic taste of Taiwanese cuisine, with fresh, handmade noodles and dumplings that clearly reflect the tradition behind each dish. On a few occasions, I've watched them make the dumplings for the day, very fresh! The beef noodle soup is rich and satisfying, with tender meat and perfectly chewy noodles, while the dan dan noodles offer just the right amount of heat and depth of flavor. The atmosphere is simple, though it was a little warm for me. Portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable, making it a great value for the quality. Also, a great opportunity to try several dishes. The service was good and attentive. The buns were also delicious! They offer a variety of savory and sweet buns, including juicy pan-fried pork buns and soft red bean dessert buns. Each one is freshly made and flavorful! Overall, Kung Fu Noodle is an good choice for anyone seeking comforting, flavorful, and authentic Taiwanese food. read more

Amazing food!!!! Family, friends and I are so happy to have fresh Chinese food nearby! We tried the orange chicken, fried rice, pork soup dumplings, egg drop soup, green beans with garlic, and chow mein. Generous portions, good price, attentive service, the manager is very kind. read more

Some of the most polite and inviting staff I've ever experienced. Meals were prepared with great care, and even supported a complete protein swap for a dish! Cumin beef is what is on the menu but my wife and I don't eat red meat so they happily swapped in chicken! The place was clean and comfortable too, casual and perfect for a quality meal without frills :) Our go-too for a wide variety of Asian cuisine! read more

Another delicious dumpling meal! So happy to have this dumpling and noodle place in this part of Vista!

From the mouth of my 10-year old, "great taste and great value!" Admittedly, we had not been back for a while mainly because this is a little out of the way for us. However, my husband had the great suggestion of eating here this week and just wanted to re-iterate how much we LOVE eating the food here. This visit, we saw the house special menu on the board next to the entrance that is not on their written menu that is handed to you when you order. I have to say that placement of that sign does not make it very obvious, but luckily we saw it. All the items on that sign looks very good and the prices are soooooo affordable that we had to order off it. The dishes we ordered on this visit were all delicious and such great value for your money. First to come out was the stir-fry green beans with garlic. Absolutely tender and yum! Then there was the beef noodle soup, so flavorful! We also had the Dan Dan noodles, large and filling and tasty as well. We had the pan fried pork buns - quite yummy but I was getting full at this point! Saving the best for last was the pork Xiao long bao, the star of the meal - large and juicy. The skin of the dumplings was thin and delicious! This place is definitely a hidden gem. If you are interested in good food and great prices, this is the place!!! If you want ambiance and a luxe settings, then I would say this will not meet your expectations. The restaurant is nice enough, but the interiors will not wow you. The food will definitely satisfy though! read more

The location looks good, the food came out really fast, everyone was nice but the food was ok.

One star. Expensive and not good. An 8-year-old child ate three plates of dumplings--not because she has a huge appetite, but because the portions were ridiculously small. To make matters worse, she ended up with diarrhea after we got home. Definitely not coming back. read more

Last minute dinner decision, didn't want to cook but wanted something comforting. Our whole order wasn't shown, but nice clean ambiance made our dinner serene. Stand out favorites Shumai, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Beef Noodle Soup fantastic! Wished the green beans would have been more al dente for a crunch, and the hot and sour soup tasted of extra vinegar. Flavor was still there, definitely can't wait to come back to try more items on their menu. read more

If you are looking for that hole in the wall noodle & dumpling restaurant that serves authentic hand pulled noodles and hand made dumplings this is the spot. From the fresh steamed vegetables to the Dan Dan noodles to the steamed soup dumplings nothing disappoints... Authentic chewy, generous size and servings portions with authentic flavors everything we ordered was on target. As with a number of restaurants of this caliber services was polite but not overly attentive and although the restaurant was clean it was not spotless. I highly recommend this restaurant for the food and the heart & sole that you can taste in every bite... read more

This is the jest food I've had in YEARS. my husband and I ate here tonight and we will be back. it's calm inside, super friendly staff.. and the FOOD!? this place doesn't get enough credit so far nothing on the menu is a miss. 11/10 can't recommend enough. I'm almost hesitant to review it this good because I know people will come here but this place is too good not to share. good price good food goo people! read more

We stopped in for dinner. Our first impression was not great. There was only one other party in the restaurant waiting for a to go order. There was a sign at the front counter saying cash or Venmo only. (When asked they claimed their credit card connection was down, but we had noticed several other previous reviews saying cash only). Several of the tables had not been bused. A murky fish tank was near the entrance. Overall, a bland basic ambiance and not very spic and span. Since there were many good reviews on Yelp about the food and the fresh house made noodles, we decided to stay, if we could get a cold beer with our meal. We did and we were very glad to have stayed. The menu is a sheet of paper with pencil to mark what you want to order. Make sure to look for the Chef's Specials on a white board hanging on a wall listing five or six more entrees and appetizers. Once seated we were able to see them making fresh dumplings. We then noticed the excellent Motown background music. We were promptly served Ice Water and our cold beers. We decided on Crab and Pork Dumplings along with some Dan Dan Noodles. Our order was quickly prepared; it came steaming hot and it was just delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection. The Dan Dan Noodles was plenty for my wife and I to share. The house hot sauce on the table went perfect with the Dumplings. While we were there, there was a steady stream of people coming in to pick up to go orders. Also, four other parties came to dine in. For the quality and proportions of the meals the prices were excellent. Kung Fu Noodle is certainly a welcome addition to the dining experience available in Vista. read more

Honestly, a hidden gem! I think that portions were generous for the price and it was so good. You can tell it's handmade noodles and dumplings, there's a lovely lady making them inside & it doesn't feel like a gross-full feeling after eating. I didn't get a picture, but the Taiwanese fried chicken was also good, they're small pieces but there's plenty. Popcorn chicken size - like. I'd go here again! It wasn't too busy when we went on Easter, lots of open tables. You check in with the front then pick a seat, they'll give you a paper to write your order. read more

A low-key Taiwanese restaurant located in a spacious plaza. I was attracted by the dan-dan noodle and my friend ordered beef noodle soup. Dan-dan noodles - I really liked the consistency of these slightly thick and chewy noodles. They were perfect and I usually don't care for us on or a lot of noodles in a dish. The minced meat was fine and the peanut flavor hit the savory spot. I did bite down on a chunk of peanut butter or so in there, not sure if that's normal. Veggies in the dish were nice to have, napa and broccoli etc I appreciated it. They take Venmo and other forms of payment here and the register guy was very attentive. The small to go portion I brought home, I ended up devouring later. Very casual dining on a Sunday afternoon. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for awhile, and was finally in the area. I had been craving chow mein and ordered the shrimp chow mein. I really had wanted to like this place, but maybe it's what I ordered, but wasn't a fan of it at all. The noodles didn't seem cooked long enough or something, but threw the whole rest of it off, also it was lacking in shrimp as well. The staff were really sweet, so I may go back and try the dumplings instead. read more

The food quality has noticeably declined compared to before. The dumpling wrappers were still hard, and dan dan noodles was mushy, with too much water, as if they hadn't been properly drained after boiling. The service was slow and felt unenthusiastic. The tables and chairs were not clean, and the soy sauce containers had a lot of residue inside. I hope the restaurant will address these issues and regain the quality it once had. read more
