The flavors are consistently amazing, portions are generous, and every dish feels like it was made with care. The Spicy Pork Knuckle is a must-order--tender, flavorful, and packed with that signature Sichuan spice. We also love the Liang Fen, Boneless Spicy Chicken, and Dry Pot Cauliflower. Every dish is full of flavor and pairs perfectly with a bowl of rice. The restaurant is clean, the service is friendly, and the food always comes out quickly. There are plenty of Sichuan restaurants in Rowland Heights, but this one stands out for its authentic taste and consistency. Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious Sichuan food in the area!

It was my first time here, and we got the zajiang noodles with peas and house beef noodles. I…read morereally enjoyed the zajiang noodles without any spice and green onions. The online menu also allows for less oil, so I decided to go for the healthier option. In general, I like how their menu allows for easily adding and removing toppings from your orders. The house beef noodles even at mild spice can pack a good amount of heat, so I'd give a warning if you have a low tolerance. The zajiang noodles had a great texture, and the flavor was light but still flavorful. I'd definitely order that again but with mild spice next time I make a visit. The restaurant has a nice and clean ambience with space for group and solo seating. Unfortunately, the restaurant was undergoing power issues, so we couldn't use a phone to order. A server took our order and explained that one area of the restaurant was even unlit because of the power issues. The lights briefly went out as well, and the servers were understandably worried about the situation. Thankfully, they quickly turned back on. Payment was conducted via Zelle; the other option was cash.

I love Mian! Every time I visit the staff is always friendly, the food is consistent, and the…read morerestaurant is usually pretty quiet, clean, and relaxed. I've tried quite a few dishes here and honestly everything has been solid. I usually get the house beef noodle but this time I tried the braised pork noodle. The noodles had the perfect bouncy texture, the pork was super tender, and the bok choy added a nice crunch that helped balance the richness of the broth. My friend got the hot and sour chaoshou which was also really good. The dumpling skin was chewy and they were packed with filling. It's also nice that you can customize the oil level in your broth. We ordered the pig ears as an appetizer too. I loved the crunchy texture but the flavor was a bit underwhelming. The initial taste was mostly chili oil and then the flavor kind of disappeared. They have a lot of other great appetizers on the menu so I'd probably skip this one next time. If you're looking for a relaxed spot with consistently good noodles Mian is definitely worth checking out!!

The fat is fully removed from the skin. The skin is crispy. The pancake that come with the dish is super delicate so you won't be eating too much carb. It comes with two duck legs unlike Duck House. 5/5 Eggplant dish is also great. Eggplant isn't soggy. The spice is highly enhanced. The pork belly is thin cut and tender. 5/5 Boiled fish definitely got me addicted. I enjoy the numbing sensation to my lips. The dish has an adequate level of spiciness that I can eat. 5/5 Garlic pea root is super fresh and crunchy. It is not soft or soggy. The garlic, wok seared flavor is outstanding. 5/5 Shredded pork has a just right spice to it. The pork is tender and not overly fatty. 5/5 Osmanthus soup for dessert is a must try! It is simple yet so hearty. It is not too sweet either. The tang yuan is still chewy and elastic after leaving in the fridge for a couple days. They're not hard at all then. 5/5 The entire restaurant looks so fancy with private rooms too. I definitely will take my parents here next time. I love this place.

We visited on a Saturday and immediately felt unwelcome. When we arrived, there were plenty of…read moreempty tables, but when we asked if we could be seated without a reservation, the staff member didn't acknowledge us directly. Instead, they called across the room to a coworker to ask if we could be seated. Once seated, we ordered quickly using the iPad. In fact, the two tables next to us were still placing their orders when we had already finished. A staff member even came by to confirm our order, so we assumed everything had gone through correctly. After waiting over 30 minutes, we noticed that tables who had arrived and ordered after us were already receiving their food while we still hadn't received anything. We tried several times to get the attention of the staff to ask about our order, but all four employees we attempted to flag down ignored us. Eventually, one staff member finally responded. She checked her iPad, didn't provide any update or explanation about our order, and simply walked back into the kitchen. At that point, we decided to leave. The entire experience was frustrating and disappointing. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and it seemed like the staff didn't want us there. What made it even more noticeable was that they appeared much friendlier and more attentive to the neighboring tables.

Our party of 8…read morewas immediately seated and given helpful information on how to order by the wonderful front of house (shout out to them! they were awesome had had super cool tattoos). We were pleasantly surprised that the lunch AYCE price was $25/person. They have a self service model for most of the meats/veggies/noodles as well as the sauce bar. You can also order appetizers and thinly sliced meat through their QR code. There were some snacks near the sauce bar such as freshly fried mantou and shrimp chips as well as bing fen and fresh fruit for a refreshing end of the meal treat. Everything was super fresh. The meatballs and beef belly were especially good and the spicy broth had the perfect amount of spice and flavor to it. I definitely would come here again to eat! One of the items that you can order has a peanut topping on it and the host was considerate to notify us about it. Upon hearing that one of our party members was allergic to peanuts, they came back with some freshly made without the peanut on it. Such wonderful service.

The restaurant advertises All You Can Eat (AYCE), but in reality the selections are quite limited…read more Only vegetables, meat skewers, and soybean-based items (cold tofu, tofu skin, etc) are truly unlimited, and these are self-serve from their fridge at any time. However, SLICED proteins such as sliced ribeye beef, sliced prime USDA beef, and sliced pork are restricted to 3 dishes per order, must be order by request, and are prepared in the kitchen. Portions are small and not sufficient for two or more people. When we tried to order a second round, only two dishes arrived out of the 3. On the third attempt, nothing arrived at all. On top of that, the wait time for sliced proteins was extremely long. While the menu is promoted as AYCE, the service appears to intentionally slow down and limit access to the main protein items, which is misleading and disappointing.

We ordered the Big plate chicken to share, and let me tell you, it was phenomenal! The dish is a spicy chicken stew made with Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, and chili paste, and comes with handpulled noodles. It was my first time trying this type of Chinese-Uyghur crossover dish, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. The portion was incredibly generous as well, as the dish was more than enough for the two of us plus leftovers.

It offers a generous portion of tender, juicy meat and springy, fresh noodles. "DELICIOUS!!" I arrived at No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights) on Sunday (around 11AM). Parking is easy. The lot is big with many spots. Staff is very friendly and welcoming, but Staff spoke limited English. Fortunately, pointing at the menu was clear enough. The food took eight minutes and nine seconds. Fast time! As mentioned, the Beef Rib Noodle Soup ($16.50 - Mild) is wonderful! It arrived picturesque and delicious!! However, despite ordering "mild," the food has a very strong heat; I sweat nonstop as I ate. The broth is rich, savory, and spicy. The meat is tender, flavorful, and falls off the bone. And the noodles are hefty, soft, and springy. It's a wonderful, euphoric combination of flavors and textures. Concerning ambiance, No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights) is surprisingly spacious with its tall ceiling and relatively clean surroundings. However, its walls and furniture look worn down with time. Some seats even had torn holes. Unfortunately, the music uses radio with constant commercials playing in the background. Fortunately, there's a gender neutral restroom in the back. Overall, I found culinary magic at No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights). The food is fresh, generously portioned, and well-prepared. I left full with a bright smile. If you enjoy spicy beef noodle soup, this is a must-try! 5 out of 5!! "GO!!"
