Best Jian Bing ever. Perfectly cooked, so many textures and flavors. I would eat this everyday if I could. Service was also excellent and clean nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!!

I get the sense that this place is sort of a hidden gem. The food is really delicious and I don't want to understate it. I really recommend the jian bing (B1) and the ChongQing style noodle soup (N1). It really brings me back. I basically had a Ratatouille moment eating some of the food here.

We did take out on the spicy intestine noodle soup and it was delicious! The spice was a kick more than it was overwhelming which I appreciated. We also ordered all three different baos - my favorite was the duck although it is the priciest one of the bunch and the pork belly, which is more affordable, is a close second. The braised beef was good too but it was cold so preferred the other two. The dish is usually made cold so that's why the bao was as well. Great experience - will definitely come back here in the future!

The jianbing is worth the wait - crispy, sour, fluffy, light, savory, sweet and spicy. Start your food tour here because you won’t have room for much else. The crepe and huge and flavor packed. 10/10

This is one of my favorite places to stop and get a bowl of noodles. I can't say anything about the authentic-ness since I don't have much to compare it to but the noodles are so good! It's flavorful always and it's a pretty big bowl for the price! The staff is also really nice and the place is calm which I like.

TOP 10 FAVORITES 10.85 for #2, spicy beef noodles. Yiwanmen is a hole in the wall noodle spot. Literally translates into “1 bowl of noodle.” Add extra noodles for 2 more. Recommended if you are a famished athlete on a rampage. Officially nominating this for the best noodle shop in Chinatown/Little Italy . Authentic & bursting with flavor. January 2024: I’m a regular here now. The owner is a nice guy with good hospitality August 2024: As wonderful as it gets for noodles
