    Brown sugar rice cakes, pig ear
    Alanna V.

    Food: 4.5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Vibes: 4.5/5 Good food, especially the brown sugar rice cakes! We each got different noodle soups and found them to have nice flavor and be very filling. Pig ear was good though nothing out of the ordinary.

    Solid spot for a variety of Chinese food including noodles, skewers, and more! The interior of the restaurant is bright and modern, and everything we tried was delicious. You order via QR code, and our food came out pretty quickly after we placed our order. We started with a variety of skewers (beef, chicken, and fish cake), and these skewers were so flavorful! I especially loved the fish cake skewer and would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys fish cake :) In terms of noodles, I had the pork belly noodle soup and my fiance had the braised beef noodle soup. Both were fantastic, and the pork belly in my dish was so tender.

    Oh I love this place. I wish I could give it 6 stars. I genuinely believe this is one of the best hidden gems in Plano with the freshest, most delicious and creative dishes. The ambiance is great with a variety of seating options and cute decorations. The restaurant is clean and service is notably warm and attentive. There is so much care that goes into running this restaurant, and it shows up during every part of the experience! The spicy cucumber salad is unreal. I've never been a cucumber lover, and this is changing my heart. One of my best bites of the year! I also love the Shanghai scallion noodles. They are so flavorful and cozy. The dan dan noodles are alright, very PB heavy if that's your thing. I can't wait to keep on returning, and No.1 Noodles is already making its way up my favorite spot list!

    Excellent noodle soup - Chongqing, house special and golden soup. The quality is consistent and great. The service is exceptional - we came in at 2:40 not knowing the kitchen closes at 3 m, but they told us to continue with the ordering.

    Yibin noodles!

    So some of my favourites have changed over time. The tofu skin skewers doesn't seem to have the same puffy crispy exterior anymore... I wonder if they changed the brand of tofu skin? The chicken cutlet skewers have gotten smaller too. They've taken some dishes out of the original menu but at least my go to orders such as the yibin noodles and Dan Dan noodles are still available. I mostly order to go and have noticed the nice packaging and utensils have changed too.. it's now the average cheap to go containers and utensils. It's fine but kind of miss the old packaging.

    Ordering was simple; they have a QR code on the table that you scan for the menu and to submit your order. Service was nice, and the food was delicious. I ordered the Golden Soup Beef Noodle that had a rich broth and tender beef. I will be back with more friends!

    Scallion Noodles
    Darren L.

    Very clean establishment. Service was very good considering he was the only server manning the front. There is a small area to select appetizer items. You then ask them to cook to order. Ordered: 1. Yibin Burning Noodles Spicy 2. Shanghai Scallion Oil Noodles 3. Beijing Soybean Paste Noodles 4. Dandan Noodle Ordered to Go: 1. Chicken Fried Rice My favorite was the dandan noodles. Very flavorful with a hint of spice. The Beijing Soybean dish was a bit too salty. The Yibin was very good with its traditional numbing effect. The Shanghai Scallion dish was very tasty. I wouldn't order the Fried rice again. It was very bland. Overall, a very nice restaurant with a good variety. I'm ready to go back when I'm in the area.

    Ambiance: the restaurant is very clean, bright, and modern Service: service was friendly. You order using a QR code. Food: the food arrived pretty quickly (about 10 minutes after ordering). The black pepper beef stir fried noodles were great. Very flavorful. The yang zhou fried rice was alright, but I felt like it was a bit bland. Both dishes were a bit too greasy for me.

    My friends and I thought No1 Noodles was just ok... It tasted like other Chinese Noodles places. The tofu sheets was probably the worst thing from the dishes we ordered. It needed something else for flavoring. There are a lot of choices for you though. However I think the choices just vary a little bit from each other and not an entirely new dish.

    Good food and environment, very friendly staff, the service is perfect. Also recommend their kebabs beyond the noodle

    Saw this place on Yelp and immediately thought, "There's no way this is good." The name doesn't…read moresound remotely Chinese. But the reviews were suspiciously glowing, so curiosity (and hunger) won. We pulled up and I took one look at the building: older, unremarkable, zero curb appeal. Classic "meh." Inside, several large round tables with lazy Susans, red tablecloths, and Chinese lanterns. They first sat us in a booth but I requested later on to be moved to a large round table since we ordered A LOT. But back to when we first sat in the booth - As a Chinese woman, the second I spotted the older seats with ripped upholstery, it hit me like a culinary prophecy: this place was going to serve me some incredible, authentic Chinese food. I don't know what it is, but there's an inverse law of Chinese restaurants: the less fancy the exterior (and the more the booth looks like it's survived several natural disasters), the better the food. Apparently they skip Instagram-worthy renovations and put the budget where it belongs--on the plate! This is now hands down in my top 3 favorite Chinese restaurant in North Dallas - I can even say it's on the very top. I haven't forgotten about the staff. They deserve 10 stars. Super nice!

    This place is getting 5 stars for food and service! I would say from the looks of it, you aren't…read moretalking fine dining, but, the meal said otherwise! We ate egg rolls, crab Rangoon, and soup, followed up by orange beef and beef fried rice. The crab Rangoon could have used more stuffings, but what was there was good. I thoroughly enjoyed the orange beef. The tenderness of the beef and the taste of the sauce was on point. Definitely don't pass on this one if you are craving Chinese food. Note: they do serve peanuts before the meal, so watch for that with allergies!

    My friend and I were craving Peking duck, so we decided to try it out. The reviews were promising,…read moreand I had heard that they carve the duck tableside. We arrived on a Wednesday evening around 7 p.m., and surprisingly, we were the only customers there, considering it was peak dinner time. We also discovered that we needed to pre-order the duck in advance. Luckily, the lady informed us that there was one available for us, but it would take about 30 minutes. We ordered the crispy cucumber salad, xiao long bao, and the dry-fried string beans. The dry-fried string beans were my favorite. The string beans had a delightful crisp texture and a flavorful taste. The cucumber salad was also good, but some parts were a bit soggy. The XLB skin was too thick and chewy, and it didn't taste like the usual soup dumplings, which was disappointing. I was excited for the duck, but I was honestly disappointed when it arrived. The portions were quite small, considering it was a whole duck. It wasn't carved tableside, which was a letdown. Some parts of the duck were dry, and the skin wasn't crispy enough. To add to the disappointment, they charge extra for almost everything. If you want more pancakes or their homemade duck sauce (which tasted like black bean sauce), you'll have to pay an additional $5. Another thing to note is that they are BYOB, so you can bring your own alcohol. However, the menu pictures on Yelp are outdated, and they only offer whole Peking duck, not half orders. Overall, the food was just okay, and I'll probably try a different spot when I'm in the mood for duck again.

WOW! The braised okra with giant oyster mushroom positively SURPRISED and leap frogged to the top of my preferred vegetable GOTOs...The cumin lamb was SO tender and VERY flavorful. One of the best preparations yet. The Singapore noodle combo and Xao Long Bao did not disappoint... More importantly, the service we received was attentive, courteous, knowledgeable, and prompt. Sadly, the eggplant with garlic sauce is the ONLY reason a star is withheld for this review...it detracted from traditional Chinese style; notes of garlic eviscerated by the chef's sweetening to satisfy an American palette...Why fix something that's unbroken?...I get it. The restaurant has to cater to its customers who populate this mix use (business/lease residential) area at the NW corner of Alma and Hwy 121, but doesn't that limit its draw? Guess we'll just have to head either further south on Central (HWY 75) to the Legacy & Spring Creek areas or further west to the Preston and Warren Pkwy Frisco TX area to satisfy our authentic Chinese cuisine food cravings.

It's one of those local restaurants that doesn't need flashy décor to stand out--the food is the main attraction. We ordered a variety of dishes so we could get a good feel for the menu, and surprisingly, the dishes I was most excited about weren't my favorites. The Beef Roll completely stole the show. The beef was incredibly tender, wrapped in a flaky pancake with fresh herbs and just the right amount of sauce. Every bite had a great balance of texture and flavor. If you're visiting for the first time, this is the one dish I wouldn't skip. Another standout was the Eggplant with Garlic Sauce. I know eggplant isn't everyone's first choice, but this dish might change your mind. The eggplant was cooked perfectly, soaking up the garlic sauce without becoming mushy. It's listed as spicy, but I found it to be mild, which actually let the garlic flavor come through even more. The Beef & Celery Dumplings were another solid choice. The filling was juicy, the celery added a nice freshness, and they were exactly what I was hoping for from a homemade dumpling. We also ordered the Dry-Fried Green Beans, and they were a great addition to the table. They had a nice bite, were well-seasoned, and paired well with the richer dishes without stealing the spotlight. Now for what might be an unpopular opinion--the Hand-Pulled Noodles. They're one of the restaurant's most talked-about dishes online, and honestly, they were the reason I came. Unfortunately, they just didn't live up to the hype for me. That doesn't mean you shouldn't order them--taste is subjective--but if I were coming back tomorrow, I'd spend my money on the Beef Roll and Eggplant instead. Overall, I'm glad I gave Hong Yuan a try. It's easy to see why locals enjoy this place, and I appreciate supporting a family-owned restaurant that's been serving the community. While the noodles didn't win me over, the Beef Roll, Eggplant with Garlic Sauce, and Beef & Celery Dumplings were more than enough to make me want to come back and explore more of the menu.
