Decided to look on Yelp and found Wen Hui Noodle Hours. I originally thought it was Wen Hui Noodle House but realized I read it wrong. Upon scanning the menu I noticed a lot of misspellings but that did not stop me from ordering. If you can read mandarin then the menu is more accurate. I ordered 2 cold dishes and 2 noodles. The cucumber salad was crunchy and filled with garlic and vinegar. It was both refreshing and light. For $3.99 you won't find this deal anywhere. Shredded potato salad was super light as well. The potatoes were sliced super thin but didn't have much flavor. Cold noodles were packed with chilies and spices. It was super flavorful and had tons of garlic. The noodles were bouncy and chewy. $6.99 The ground meat eggplant noodles came in a big bowl. The hand pulled noodles were thick and really long. The meat was flavorful and eggplant was soft. It came with a lot of meat and eggplant which we took home to eat with rice. The noodles were nice and firm as well. $12.99 read more

I found this place on Yelp in the vicinity of my neighborhood cuz I planned on walking there. I came on a Wednesday around 5pm and it was empty. I walked in and took a look at the menu and the sever waited patiently. I'm pretty sure they only speak Chinese here / very little English since they immediately greeted me in Chinese. I ordered to go and they prepared my order quickly. I got the cold noodles in sesame sauce and the lamb hamburger. The cold noodles came with all the sauces on the side so allowed you to add as much or as little sauce as you wanted but I went with adding everything of all the sauces. It had a great authentic taste that wasn't too overpowering in any way. I prefer things spicier so I added some more chili oil. The noodles are nice and bouncy and hand pulled !!! The lamb hamburger was sooo flavorful. I do think the bread couldn't been a little better maybe toasted or something but it was a good balance with the flavors of the lamb. This little hole in the wall was a nice surprise and I'll be back to try more dishes ! read more

My rating is for the service only. So it's my first time here, but the experience wasn't good. It was full house when I came in, and I didn't know what to do, like if I need to writing my name in the queuing list or what. The lady led to me to cashier counter for the menu, so I followed. Meanwhile one of the table was leaving, but two gentlemen came in and took the table, and she said ok. So I ask her nicely, where am I going to seat then? She led me to a working table. Ok, but she leaned on me to grab the placements without any notice. Then when my noodle arrived, I was only served with chopsticks, no spoon. The funniest thing was those two gentlemen who stole my table switched to another table after my food arrived. Oh also, they only accepts credit card if it's $38 or more, otherwise cash. Note, there's no labels or notes in their restaurant stating that. Aside from the service, the food was good. read more

A super small cozy restaurant that is located in the corner of a strip mall. They don't have many tables and their tables are pretty small. They have physical menus as well as a QR code to order online. We ordered the following: Chinese pork hamburger, cucumber salad, shredded potato salad, Srool chicken, and cold noodle with chili oil. The shredded potato salad and cold noodle were pretty disappointing. Both dishes were not cold, and were served warm. The shredded potato being warm was pretty interesting since I'm used to eating it cold but it wasn't terrible. The cold noodles being warm was pretty gross to me though. The warmness changed the texture of the noodles and I couldn't eat more than 2 bites. The chicken pork hamburger was pretty good and flavorful. I think my favorite was the srool chicken though. It looked like it was going to be spicy but it actually wasn't spicy at all. The total of our bill came out to be really cheap though. But I still probably wouldn't return to dine here again. read more

I'm always on the look out for new restaurants to try in SGV. My craving of the week was noodles, so I looked at various noodle places in the area. I saw this restaurant served Shaanxi style noodles, which I'd never had before, so I decided to give it a try. My wife got spicy soup noodles and I ordered stir fried handmade cumin noodles with lamb. The server was quick and response and explained the menu thoroughly. The restaurant itself is very small but clean. The food came fairly quickly. My wife's noodles were too spicy for me, even with one bite, but she loved the noodles. My cumin noodles are just slightly spicy and perfect for me, with a slight kick. I loved the lamb as well, which was tender and delicious. Solid restaurant for sure, and I would come back. read more

My friend was searching for Xian food and found this spot so we gave it a try. As soon as we took our first bites, we were all impressed! All of the dishes were good but each of us had our personal favorite. I loved the "three topping spicy noodle" the most. I would definitely recommend getting this. The owner is nice but her English is very limited. Luckily my friend knows how to speak a bit of Mandarin because I needed to ask where the bathroom was (it's in the back and you have to walk through their kitchen). Don't worry though, you order on your phone through a QR code anyways. Great little hole in the wall worth checking out! read more

After visiting Xi'An literally 2 months ago, I knew my taste buds changed forever. I now cannot go a few months without a taste of their biangbiang mian or roujiamuo. This place is tiny, and is reflected by the small parking lot. I ended up parking on the street on a Saturday night. I actually found this place via xiaohongshu, and people wrote good reviews on there. Are they authentic? Yes. Is it reasonably priced? 100%. Would I come back? Definitely. If you come here, you order their 3 TOPPINGS SPICY NOODLE. All caps because it's their signature, and a signature dish of Xi'An. People who aren't giving this dish 5 stars definitely haven't been to Xi'An. This bowl of oily and spicy noodles transported me back to the historic city. The liangpi (cold noodles) was okay; the noodles were a little too thick for my taste, so the flavor was slightly washed out by the carbs. The roujiamuo (or Chinese hamburger) carried the scent you smell when browsing Xi'An night markets. The bread was alright, but the meat was full of flavor. Service is pretty good, although not typical to your ABC/american restaurant quality. That's how you know they are good. The noodles came pretty fast since I assume they make their toppings in advance. Apparently people got a problem with that, but w/e. They also carry a lot of drinks from China, so you're getting the full experience (even the water wasn't ice cold!). If you're looking for an authentic Xi'An noodle house, this is the place! Although it's called wen hui noodle, its Chinese name translates to Xi'An Hand Noodle (西安手工面). Will definitely be back and will definitely be recommending this place to my Chinese friends! read more

Anticipated hype for this xi'an place my friend said was super authentic just like how her grandma makes the food but must have came on a bad day. Soups were so salty!!!! Even when I recooked it doing a 1:2 dilution with water. The tomato dish had deliciously handmade noodles but sadly nothing could salvage the broth. The lamb soup dish I had just not a fan. The lamb smelled and tasted old, the bad meat taste was kinda over powering the dish. The cold noodle dish was top tier no complaints read more

Oh god, what a mistake! I ordered stir fried handmade noodle with brisket in tomato sauce. I did not like it at all. It was way too tomatoey with very little and tiny pieces of brisket.

Wen Hui Noodle Hours - a container of noodles - Chinese Near Me - Monterey Park, California

This small restaurant houses a northern xhinese restaurant that specializes in handmade noodles. I forget which province in China the cuisine is from. Not fancy with very few tables. Service was attentive. I was the only diner but I went at an off hour. I parked on the street. The food was tasty but not amazing. I love brothers Chinese food because the emphasis is on noodles not rice. Yum. read more

Wen Hui Noodle Hours - a table and chairs in a restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Monterey Park, California

I was craving for some noodles the other day and I came across this restaurant on Yelp. After reading the good reviews, of course I have to give it a try. I ordered the srool chicken, three topping noodle with spicy oil and mutton stir fry. - Srool chicken: it was a nice portion size for dish. The spicy sauce is actually minimally spicy. It's mostly chicken soaked in red chili oil. The chicken was served lukewarm. Here's the interesting part, as I worked my way to the other end of the dish, it started to turn cold and the chicken tasted soggy?! That was the first red flag.. - three topping noodle with spicy oil: the noodle itself is pretty good. The individual toppings were alright. I usually like to try the topping individually before mixing it into the bowl. For some odd reason, the potato and egg with tomatoes were cold. I asked the server and she said the chef made it in advance and scoop it onto the bowl when order. Then she said that I'm supposed to mix the topping with the noodle so everything will be hot. Then she asked if it's my first time eating this kind of noodle. I'm like...excuse me @@ - stir fry mutton: at first, the server told me that they don't have mutton so they'll cancel my order. Then later she brought out the plate of stir fry beef that "I ordered" . This dish is alright. The amount of onions on the plate is ridiculously out of proportion to the beef. The beef itself is cut in different sizes and drenched in oil. I am not sure if it's an day when I visited but I think I'll pass. read more

I LOVE xi'an style noodles. Biang biang noodles, lamb cumin stir fry, and the traditional pita hamburgers are all to-die for. Wen Hui was a little bit of a miss for me. You order via QR code on the table. Workers here speak mostly Mandarin. I tried: Eggplant and pork noodle: the thick belt noodles were generous portion-wise but the flavor was lackluster. The noodles were slightly overcooked and the eggplant and meat sauce was underwhelming. Dumplings: The dumplings were tasty, but the filling was loose and looked very much undercooked. Spicy noodles: Were not very spicy, but much more cumin-y. Cucumber appetizer: Very delicious, garlicky, refreshing, and came with tofu bits. Pig ears: Just ok - came with a hefty amount of sliced raw onions. They also forgot one of our orders, which we ended up just canceling. The restrooms are outside. There is a parking lot with free parking but it's really small and fills up fast. There's also plenty of free street parking. read more

When... Fri, 02-Aug-2024 What... Cold noodle with sesame sauce Spicy lamb "burger" Fried bean jelly Where... Wen Hui Noodle Hour The Good... Sauces of the cold noodles are individualized for customer personal taste. The spiciness is the lamb hamburger was decent. The bean jelly seasoning is good. The Bad... The cold noodles seemed a day old... Thicker version of flat rice noodles. The bread of the "hamburger" definitely need work. It was not airy or soft, unless they were going for traditional flat bread. The bean jelly is VERY greasy. The Meh... The cold noodles are dandan mian with different noodles, that's all. Parking is impossible. The Conclusion... Definitely not a fan... Unless these high reviews are from owner's friends; or people have particular tastes; or they resting the hot stuff, this place is not recommended by me. Good luck to the owners to revamp the cooking or recipes. read more

This is a a lil' mom and pop shop tucked in the little corner of a small plaza. The lady running the shop was very friendly even though we had a language barrier. We got their cumin lamb hand cut noodles. This was delicious and HUGE. The texture was the perfect chew and it was LONG. This dish is always fun to eat when you're pulling the noodles because it doesn't break. The lamb were in smaller pieces and the chili oil was generous. I'd suggest to have that on the side and pour in by yourself. We also got the leek dumplings. The filling was perfectly balanced with the skin and flavorful. My friend said it was on the thicker side for her. I liked it because it had a doughier bite than most dumplings. read more

If you want biang biang noodles, a la xi'an famous foods in New York, this place is for you! Better than the pop ups (that place in Culver City). Taste: Fantastic. I had the Cumin Lamb hand pulled noodles. I don't remember what the menu item is but it says like "jerky noodles" or something. Be sure you get that one because in the English menu there are two other different cumin lamb/beef options. Spicy, savory, not too salty. The noodles are perfectly chewy. The sauce is just right to coat the noodles. The meat is cooked right and not over done. I also had a Rou Jia Mo (pork- Zhou rou jia mo) and the meat was juicy and good. The bun was crispy on the outside and unlike some places, still soft and nice on the inside. Experience: I can speak survival mandarin, and I'd recommend coming with someone who can speak a little bit, or be prepared to pantomime. I've been here a few times and it just makes it easier to speak the language. Eating in is nothing special, but it's clean enough. I've also ordered from Fantuan, which was a fine enough experience, but the noodles are best eaten fresh. Mood Before/After: I was feeling a little tired, but this picked me up enough to get to the gym in the evening. Fullness: Absolutely stuffed What else did I eat/do today affecting my experience: I was in the garage today fixing up my car and I spent a long time doing a complicated task. This was kind of a reward meal. read more

The food tastes really good. I had the curry hand pull noodles. Very good Vietnamese/Chinese food.

I really liked this restaurant. It's clean, neat, and most importantly has good food! Their noodle soups are lovely, good flavor and good noodles. My one complaint is that the roujiamo bread could have been a little fluffier. It was a bit too thin and dense to be a perfect roujiamo. The filling was great, very very very oily, but the taste was good. read more

Authentic, tasty, and good prices. Nice cozy clean place and owner nice. Good variety and also handmade noodles.

Promising new Shaanxi noodle house with some caveats about its mild flavors. This stretch of Garvey is a noodle battleground, with Mien Nghia, Noodle Harmony, and Mandarin Noodle House being in my regular rotation. Wen Hui Noodle Hours recently opened up in a somewhat cramped space (beware if you're dining in during the pandemic) in a plaza with an equally cramped parking lot. Its name challenges Qing Dao Bread Food for the title of strangest restaurant name in the SGV, even though its Chinese signage, which reads Xi'an Handmade Noodles, is rather normal. Mouth-watering ("saliva") chicken: My favorite dish by far, it's a much milder version of what you'd have at Sichuan restaurants, with minimal heat and only a hint of huajiao (numbing peppercorns), but quite flavorful nevertheless. And rather affordable at $3.99. Roujiamo with pork ("Chinese hamburger"): Skip it. It could've used some sauce to give it a kick, and the bread didn't soak up any meat juices so it was quite dry. Three toppings spicy noodle with pepper oil: The wide noodles were good. It was on the thin side, unlike other biangbiang noodles which are thick and you get tired of them before you're even halfway through the bowl. Alas, the toppings were milder than I'd have liked. The flavors all kind of got muddled together once they were mixed, except for the unusually large chunk of ginger that I bit into. Despite its name, it was hardly spicy. To be fair, I also wasn't a fan of the version of these noodles served at the more-popular Noodle Art. Service: Polite but English was non-existent. An ABC girl was having trouble ordering to-go. Overall, this shop shows promise, especially since the noodles themselves tasted pretty good. But you should come with the expectation that the flavors won't be as bold as at other eateries. read more

New Shaanxi style restaurant and hand pulled noodle specialist with a name that puzzles me. Third different Chinese restaurant that has opened during the pandemic at this location, so there's certainly no shortage of Chinese restaurant operators looking to open up even during these tough times. Nice selection of hand pulled noodle dishes with lots of "Q". Usual Shaanxi specialties like the Chinese hamburger, pita bread soup and lots of lamb dishes. Large selection of Shaanxi appetizers, too. read more

Oh my gosh, I found the food here incredible. Only place in LA that serves the 菠菜面 version of the classic 西安 油泼面. Very fragrant and well-spiced sauces. Excellent 口感/QQ of the 凉皮 and 油泼. The cumin lamb 肉夹馍 had great texture and was very comforting to eat. This place reminded me of great noodle stand experiences I've had in Shaanxi. By a narrow margin (because LA now has a good selection of 油泼面 places), my favorite Shaanxi spot in the Southland presently. read more

I was in the area doing some restaurant dives, and I saw this little mom and pop restaurant. So I thought, I'll drop in and order something popular. I ordered two Chinese style "hamburgers", the pork and the beef. Unfortunately, the Chinese "pita" style bread was a bit doughy and had no flavor, and I ended up discarding the bread and just eating the meat. The pork itself didn't have any sauce, and was a bit dry and low on flavor. It could have really used some sauce to bring it to life. As for the beef version, it was absolutely the opposite of the pork. It was packed with flavor and spiced with cumin and peppers. Basically a night and day comparison from the pork. This place has piqued my interest for a return visit to try out their signature noodles. Until then, I highly recommend anyone to try out their beef-style hamburger! read more

The place is tiny, but the food was good. Especially, those special dishes from Northern China.

Flavor and texture of noodles were A+. Had heard that these were some of the best in LA and they didn't disappoint (although I could never choose a favorite!) No English spoken, which is never a problem, we were able to order perfectly well off of the menu and the woman at the front was sweet and patient with us. Excited to come back and try more of what they have to offer. read more
