Y Noodles

Hands down the best authentic Sichuan Chinese food I've ever had in the Washington Metro area and possibly the country. I first tried the Chongqing style noodle bowl w/beef and it was incredibly delicious and generous portion size. I've been in the US since childhood and this is the first restaurant to serve handmade authentic style "Alkaline" Xiao Mian noodles! The cook makes the noodles fresh each day and you can taste the difference. I’ve yet to find another restaurant in the US that does this! I was so blown away by the Noodle bowl that I ended ordering 5 other dishes! Everything from the Homemade twice cooked pork, Lotus root / spicy pork ribs, Shredded pork, wontons were the best authentic Sichuan Chinese food I've had in my decades in the states. Did I mention the noodle bowls?

I’m not the biggest fan of ChongQing noodles but came for a try. Some dishes are spicier than the others. Would recommend the wontons and the lotus root. The chicken noodles were way too spicy for me to handle.

My hidden spot Chinese cuisine, fried lamb skewers, salt and pepper squid, wonton soup and fried green beans are my favorites. 🍜🥟🥢 Service was just okay; you scan the QR code to order from your phone. 📱

The reason that I gave a 2 star was because the service is really really bad. The waitress literally scolded at my fiancee that: Can you move?? Whoa! It blew my mind. I usually love chinese food and their friendly attitude. But that woman, it’s something i wouldn’t want to tolerate again. The food is quite decent. I would give the food alone 3.8 star. But the attitude made me feel like i wouldn’t want to return. Anyway, I was being too nice still gave her a 18% tip. Nowadays seems like when you swipe your card, automatically showed you the lowest amount is 18%…. Such unfair for us customers, especially there was no service involved and some even were rude, like hers. She seemed unpleasant the entire time, not only to us, but also to everyone else, not sure if she was the boss or what. She

I found a small noodle place in West Falls Church called Y Noodles. Most of the customers are Asian, with a few foreigners like Americans. The taste is unbelievable! The people are nice, and the place is small and cozy, like eating at home. The staff are a bit shy, but it’s clean and the food is delicious. I’d love to come back and try more dishes.
