7.9
A no-frills Henan noodle stop where the payoff is in chewy hand-pulled noodles coated in savory, cumin-forward sauces. It’s built for quick, filling bowls at a low price point—skip the overthinking and order one dry noodle dish plus something brothy if you’re hungry.

Cumin lamb hand-pulled noodles (dry), Braised beef noodle soup, Mutton soup (when available)

Value: 8.6

Consistency: 7.8
Food Quality: 8.3

What makes it special: Henan-style hand-pulled noodles with bold cumin-and-chile comfort.
Who should go: Noodle lovers who want maximum fill for minimal spend.
When to visit: Late morning or early afternoon for faster service.
What to order: Cumin lamb dry noodles, beef noodle soup, mutton soup.
Insider tip: Ask for chili on the side first—build heat gradually.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited and competitive in Downtown Flushing, especially midday and evenings. Metered spots turn over faster late morning.
Dress code: Very casual—jeans, hoodies, and workwear all fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate to loud during peak hours; fine for casual conversation but not a quiet sit-down.
Weekend wait: 15–25 minutes at peak times; faster if dining solo or as a pair.
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait outside the noon rush.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited—some vegetable-forward noodle options possible, but most dishes lean meat- and broth-based.
Vegan options: Very limited—requires customization and confirmation; not a reliable vegan stop.
Gluten-free options: Not ideal—hand-pulled wheat noodles dominate the menu and cross-contact is likely.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for a low-key, food-first meetup than a romantic date—the focus is on fast, hearty eating rather than ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—walk-ins are the norm. Seating turns over quickly, especially outside peak lunch hours.
Is it kid-friendly? Casual and fine for older kids who like noodles; no special kids’ menu or high chairs.
Best For
Better for: Chewy, cumin-forward Henan-style noodles at a lower price point with faster turnaround than larger sit-down noodle houses.
Skip if: You want polished service, a broad vegetarian menu, or a relaxed, lingering dining experience—opt for full-service noodle or regional Chinese restaurants instead.
