This restaurant has been around for a while. And they put out a lot of tables and chairs in this alleyway after covid 19. A friend and I tried it again recently and the flavor is okay. You order a soup base and then you can pick a type of noodles you want from their menu. I find the knife peeled noodle(add an extra $1 for this) has the best texture.

My go to noodle place. Good noodles. You come for the noodle soul not the ambiance. No alcohol though they do have a drink selection

36. Beef Noodle Soup
Alexa T.

My friends and I were looking for a place to eat on a Saturday night. I was surprised that they were opened so late since a lot of places close early in Chinatown! Note: they are cash only!! All the tables outside were full. There was 1 open table so my friends and I went in with the AC (thank god). We tried making eye contact a few times with any servers and finally got to place our order. We got: - chicken dumplings: very good and big dumplings - chicken pan fried noodles (wide noodles) - tofu pan fried noodles (wide noodles): my friends annoyed this - beef hand pulled noodle soup: broth was super good! But the beef slices were okay, I prefer a beef cubes like in Taiwanese beef noodle soup We ordered scallion pancakes too but it never came out and we weren't charged for it. I would come back if I needed a bite to eat and was in the area that late.

Pretty crowded, not sure if it's because it's a touristy instagram spot or if I'm missing something. We were sat downstairs in the basement, which was a cramped messy space with only a few tables. It looked more like a storage/employee room than space for customers. Saying that because several employees came down there to get supplies out of closets and put their personal belongs into a locker next to the tables. Not only turned off by that but also seeing wired off rat holes. The service was decent. As far as the food, you can tell the noodles are freshly made and the veggies seem fresh as well. The broth was just ok. Definitely not worth the instagram hype in my opinion.

Delicious! I had the hand pulled fried noodles with duck. Those noodles were delicious. Thick, warm, added chilly oil so slightly oily but so much flavor!!! I want more, I'm a fan!!!

F. Pan Fried Shrimp Noodles
Nelle W.

Lovvvvvvve this place! They know my order by heart lol which is pan fried shrimp dumplings. Super friendly & you can sit wherever you want. The food is so good here & walking distance from my job (which makes it even better) but I've also tried their ramen, lowmein, fried rice & something else (can't remember rn) but it's all fresh & delicious.

Pan Fried House Special Noodles

The noodles here are truly incredible. I usually get the fried variety (instead of the ones in broth). Made there, fresh, authentic, delicious and very cheap. I don't know hoe they do it. This is a must for me in NYC.

I ventured to tasty hand pulled noodles to meet up with a friend for dinner tonight. This is a go-to casual spot for my company and we were nearby, so I figured I'd drop in again with her. It was a nice day, so there was plenty of outdoor seating which was really nice. This is a really "no-frills" joint, it's super lowkey, but that's part of the charm. You don't really go here for be aesthetic and while the service is always good, their role seems to moreso be one or efficiency, rather than personable hospitality, which is fine. We ordered some shrimp fried dumplings ($7.50), which were good. I especially liked them with the dumpling sauce which I kind of drenched them in. They were nice and crispy. As an entree, I ordered the pan fried chicken noodles ($13.50) which I really enjoyed. They were nicely fried and oily. I also really appreciate how the servings are big enough here to have leftovers, my favorite. Unfortunately, my friend wasn't thrilled by her beef and peppers which she said was lacking some flavor.

one house special noodle soup

I used to eat here all the time a few years ago, and it looks like the prices have doubled since then while the quality has dropped a little. I decided to come for dinner around 6pm on a weekday and had no trouble finding a seat--the outdoor seating area is nice when the weather accommodates, and adds to the rustic/no-frills atmosphere. The noodle soup, though, just wasn't that tasty for $15-17, especially given the bounty of other food options in Chinatown. I got the "one house special noodle soup," which came with beef, tripe, and a fried egg on top. Everything tasted fine, but the broth was pretty one-note, verging on bland, and I did have to add some chili oil to improve the flavor. The portion is huge, which is a plus, and service is fast, so this could be a good option if you're looking to sit down somewhere and want something soupy and quick.

Angel B.

Don't be turned off by the exterior appearance. The place looks clean. The noodles are made in premise and delicious in that they're not mushy. The beef was tender. The dumplings are large. The service was non nonsense. We loved it!

Amy W.

this place was such a great vibe! came on a warmer fall sat night with some friends, and the street was packed with people dining on plastic stools and tables. it's low frills and super fun. the service was very quick and the dumplings (steamed and fried) were a big hit with our group. I also enjoyed their house special beef noodle soup, as well as the pan fried beef noodles (unfortunately didn't get the greatest pictures in the dark!). prices also can't be beat! would come back again.

Andrew K.

Exactly what I wanted from this place is what I got. No frills, tons of options, easily accessible noodle joint. We grabbed some steamed dumplings that were full of meat. Were they the best? No but they did the job and were very plump. Grabbed knife cut beef noodle soup that was delicious. The meat was surprisingly flavorful and there was a solid amount of it. The noodles were chewy in the best way. And the service was exceedingly quick (could not have taken more than 5 minutes for either dish to appear). The door says cash only but they do take credit card.

43. Roast Duck Noodle Soup
Justin N.

Being in Chinatown, you have to try some hand pulled noodles. It was a cold day outside, so it was a perfect time for broth! The interior was something that takes me back to when times were easier, and the smells delighted me, as it reminded me of some delicious home cooking. Service was quick, prices are reasonable, and the portions were large! Def can share a bowl between two people :) highly recommend the roasted duck

Ask the Community - Tasty Hand - Pulled Noodles

Are there still outdoor seats here? Mott St used to have outdoor dining but they were all removed so wondering if still available here.

Yes, seating outside is available. We dined here because we had our dog with us to be able to seat ourside.

Are there vegan options available here?

Yes

Do they take credit cards?

No. Cash only

Is there outdoor seating?

Yes, good outdoor seating (a few individual rooms with their own tables and air conditioning, as well as a few tables out in the open street)

Is the restrooms available?

Yes

Do they have wine?

No.

Is there a bathroom?

Yes, it's janky.

If I have a party of five or six, do I have to make a reservation?

It's rather small place and casual. They most likely don't take reservations but it'd be courtesy to let them know ahead your coming as a group of six. They probably only have about 20 seats total in there

Do they have tomato and fried egg hand pulled noodles?

me thinks not - they all look the same coming out of the kitchen

Do they have highchair?

Yes

Just wondering, do you tip here? I have done so about 50% of the time but I'm not sure if it's expected.

It's really so variable. My friends and I have always tipped a bit in the tip jar in the front.

Is it a byob restaurant?

Nope. But the beers are cheap like 3$.

As the name implies, it really is an excellent dumpling house!…read more Me and my buddies were in Jersey and New York for some hockey games, and wanted to go to a deli, get some Chinese food, and a slice of pizza. 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.

I missed a call and literally two minutes later the call came through again and the woman yelled at me - "hurry up hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" said the driver was waiting 10-15 minutes for me, which was simply untrue - I got a call literally two minutes before- just rude. Added a screenshot in case the owner doubles down that it was 15 mins. Guess the first call was from the delivery driver, and the second was from the restaurant itself. ‍ But the really disappointing part is that they didn't pack any soup separate from the noodles! - So my chicken dumpling noodle soup basically had no soup - don't know if they forgot it or if it was absorbed by the noodles but most restaurants at this point know to pack the broth and the noodles separately,- so I ended up having to add some of my own vegetable broth, which totally was not the flavor I was hoping for. So - love the food, but delivery service leaves a lot to be desired - next time I'll try giving instructions to pack the soup separate from the noodles and see if that helps!

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!

The interior is absolutely chic and maximalist--I felt transported into a different world once I walked down the gigantic staircase into the main dining area. The lights were low, and the walls in the room we were seated in were covered with bookshelves lined by golden books. We ordered the dim sum tasting, the short rib, the lobster fried rice, and the brussels sprouts. The dim sum was a true standout for me--especially the egg roll, which was full of shrimp, meat, and veggies and paired with a delicious creamy sauce. The short rib was also amazing. The bed of mushrooms and noodles it was served on was flavorful and the meat was so tender it melted in your mouth. The drinks were good as well, specifically the lychee martini (I forget its name). Overall, I am glad to have had this dining experience, and recommend it.

I'm a lower middle-class Jersey guy - what the heck do I know about cocktails?  But I dove right into one ("Jade Collins") and it was firing on all cylinders.  Crisp, clean, strong enough to knock over an ox. Then we got a handful of apps - everyone else swore by all the ones they'd had - but I just tried the Salt & Pepper Shrimp and... sweet baby Jesus, this little plate had a wicked amount of flavor from every angle.  "Aggressively seasoned" might be an understatement.  Wild. Onto the mains and I ventured towards their Spicy Drunken Noodle (my go-to whenever I'm hitting a Thai restaurant on my home turf) and... yeah, you probably guessed it - incredible. Not the biggest portion but they made every single component sing with flavor. With so much going on - of course I needed to indulge with another drink (hey, I wasn't driving!). There were six of us, it came to about $100 a person... welcome to NYC. But we did get a wide selection of plates/food and those two drinks accounted for about $40 of my tab. (And you'll never see such a heavy wine pour at a restaurant... they filled the glass almost to the rim - which was not even something I'd do for myself when I'm home.) Definitely recommended.
