#24 garlic pork noodle was extremely good. Was served very quickly too. Thank god I happened to have a $20, but restaurants that are still cash only in 2023 amaze me.

Worst experience I’ve ever had. We waited a bit for this restaurant to open again at 5pm. They take cash only and you have to go ATM at Walgreens to withdraw ($4 fee is required). We were not really happy. I give them 2 stars only for the food and zero for the service or atmosphere. Also, Idk if he was a manager or an owner, he kept yelling at staff so loudly. Everyone in the restaurant could hear their conversation. I could say spicy dry noodle was okay. Overall, it could’ve been better. I don’t think I will come back again.

Fine place for stringy and chewy hand-pulled noodle. Price is pretty low! Cash only.The portion of the pork ribs exceeded my expectations, and each piece was the right piece of meat i liked :) this noodle’s soup is on the bland side.The other we ordered was sour-and-spicy, very appetizing!There are different types of noodles too. We loved the belt noodle.

First time here but the hubby has been lots of time to the Milpitas location. Inside is cool and service is good. Hand pull noodles 🍜 they were good and not to chewy.

This place were recommended by 2 colleagues so we decided to give it a try, a little bit disappointed, the taste was not very authentic (my husband is from xi’an so he knows the taste the best), they run out of 凉皮 on the day, and they stopped making肉夹馍 permanently. Also the 油泼扯面 and the 臊子面 looks very similar as you can see from the picture, I guess the only difference is that one comes with spicy oil, but they tasted almost same.

Tasty hand pulled noodles. Cash only, they don’t take reservations. Prefer the dry noodles versus the soups. You should have the option to change the type of noodle you want.

Best chewy noodles and liang pi in the bay! My partner and I live in SF and make a point of coming here anytime we are within like 20 miles! Hot oil noodles are especially good. It is cash only though.

Cash only for some reason, so make sure you hit the atm before stopping by.. had the number 8, loved it. Could have a little more spicy, but still good.

The noodles found at QQ Noodle are probably the best noodles in the bay area. Scratch that, probably the best noodles I have had in general. The chewiness, texture, and flavor are all on point. Not only that but they give you so much noodles. From the spicy beef noodle soup to the special hot oil beef noodles to the liangpi. You can not go wrong with how much flavor is packed into a bowl. I was especially impressed with the special hot oil beef bowl 🌶️🍖🍜 So damn good 🤤. Most definitely worth the drive and I already can not wait to come back!!!

So far this is our go-to place for pulled noodles in the area. We found out about it through Mikey Chen so we knew it would be good. The process to order and get seated is a little awkward but we know they’re still trying to readjust from pandemic-times.UPDATE: As of October 2022, they are now seating directly when we went to dinner. Still tasty! Also, cash only.

Good food! Noodles are firm and chewy, meat burger was scrumptious & juicy (though judging from the other reviews the dish is probably inconsistent). Service was alright, could be better. Relatively quick wait time. Noodles did have some uncomfortable contrasting flavors, and at times it could be too oily. However, overall this place did pretty well.

Cash only and no ATM here.Seat yourself. Very Chinese run place. Easy to find parking in this plaza. The noodles are very chewy and thick - they dont dissolve. The meat is so tender and the soup or sauce is very flavored. Everything is served in cheap togo materials, but the tables and chairs are very solid wood.After treat yourself to some boba nearby!

Been my favorite noodle spot in the bay for a while; truly everything at QQ noodle slaps! all time favorite is the #24, but once again, all of their noodles are really solid both in flavor and in achieving the perfect chewy texture—you cant go wrong. quick service, and cash only, so come prepared, but otherwise, enjoy :).

Pretty good noodle place that focuses on quality with a reasonable price. Based on pictures, our group ordered a variety of dishes that range of various spice levels. I enjoyed trying each dish and the noodle texture was firm but chewy. Portion of each dish was very generous that will ensure take home. Overall would recommend and will return to try other variants of items in the menu.

Very chewy noodles and the fish is very fresh, we were surprised by the good taste of both noodles we ordered . Highly recommend

Delicious noodles at a great price. The serving bowls are huge (enough for 2 meals for me) so I usually eat family style when I go with people. The staff are nice and the food comes out really quickly when they arent over flooded with people. The busiest times are usually on the weekends when there will be a waiting list for up to 30 min to get seated.

Good spot for noodles! thick noodles have crazy texture!! Don’t eat much spice and it was definitely spicy (numbing). Ordered garlic sauce with pork noodle. Sub the lettuce for bok choy.Their menu is a bit confusing and no prices…

Was craving noodle soup and this place popped up. Upon arriving, they were easy to spot from the horse of Asians standing around the entrance.Luckily we had a short wait on a Saturday around noon. We got the spicy pork noodle soup with the wide noodles and the dry noodles of the same kind. Both dishes were good, but the dry noodles were pretty over cooked.Otherwise the broth had good flavor and textures. I was also excited it had three chilies next to the name. I assumed it would be really spicy. Thats where they let me down. Very little spice at all. No water or tissues needed, I was pretty bummed about that.Otherwise the space has a lot of communal tables so expect to be sat there. They also only accept cash, thankfully my bf had some to cover us.

Delicious! Definitely returning. They serve efficiently but do get busy during peak hours so plan accordingly. The noodles are so good, you can definitely taste the Q勁兒 ;) the pig ear appetizer is quite good as well.涼皮 tastes great, but had little 麵筋 and slightly pricy, so are many other other appetizers.Interestingly their main noodle dishes are generously portioned.Oh, they are CASH ONLY

My favorite noodle place in Cupertino, and one of my favorites in the whole Bay Area! Their vegetarian egg and chive dry noodle is what I always get, and the wide belt-style noodle has great chewy homemade texture. I haven’t tried their meat dishes because I don’t eat meat, but I would recommend getting the wide noodles regardless!

Review №21

Talk about chewy fresh goodness! We ordered #24 with a side of cold noodles w/ garlic & chili oil. Everything was delicious & pipping hot!

Review №22

2019-07-04 04:27:16

Love this noodle place! Super nice down to earth staff, generous serving, handpull noodles have jist the right chewiness for texture & retain the sauce when you have dry noodle dish.And their marinated sweet & sour garlic is a bomb.The summer special cold noodle is better with chili sauce.

Very nice staff. Super good food. The noodles looked so rustic they had to be house made.

I love this place! The noodles were always al-dente and the flavors were always delicious. The wait gets longer if you come after noon on the weekends but the service was always super fast. You can customize the type of noodles (thin, wide, super wide) with any flavors you like. We usually ordered the dry noodles. The pork bun is also very delicious and you should really try it out. Cash-only.

Definitely my go-to when deciding between Milpitas and Cupertino locations. Great quality ingredients make each dish yummy and fresh tasting. Great variety of flavors to choose from, everyone will find something they like. Definitely gets crowded early on, so come early!

Their hot oil noodles are good! It’s not that spicy but has good flavor. It is slightly underseasoned and the noodles could be a little less soft but I haven’t found anything better yet in the area. The spicy beef noodle is good but can be inconsistent.

Excellent soup . Fresh ingredients.Cash only is a letdown though.

Review №28

2021-11-05 22:08:30

**CASH ONLY**Fantastic noodles. I got the spicy oil noodle or something along those lines and it was delicious. Great texture on the noodles themselves. Great flavor with the pork and sauce. I would not have complained if it was a tad spicier, but overall really good. Definitely would come back .

2023-06-27 06:06:20

Efficient quick service, was able to get in and out within 30 minutes. Hand pull noodles are really good.Watch out, it is cash only so make sure to bring some before you sit down to dine!

Was craving noodles and this place definitely hit the spot! Came here on a Friday night at around 8pm and our party of 2 waited for around 10mins.I was flipping through the menu and it says that one bowl of noodles is ~850 calories (holy moly!!) Still worth the calories though haha! We shared the beef noodles and lamb noodles. The beef noodles were a thinner kind whereas the lamb one were a thicker kind and I liked both - the texture of the noodles is nice and chewy. My only negative point is that I think they put a decent amount of msg in the soup because my mouth had that lingering msg taste even hours after dinner.All in all, a solid noodle place that is great for satisfying noodle cravings. Remember to bring cash!!!

It’s a noodle place so ambiance is not the selling feature. It is clean and the wait staff is efficient. The best part is the tasty noodles - if you like authentic dishes then this is the place for you.

I’ve had QQ Noodle way too many times to count. And I’d bet if you had their springy noodles, you’d make them one of your rituals too.Q is the Chinese word for a springy mouthfeel, which is one of the ultimate tastes for a noodle in Chinese culture. And QQ Noodle, living up to its name, delivers the goods.Due to the pandemic, their menu shrunk a lot. Some of my favorites include the Braised Beef Noodle Soup with thin noodles, and the Spicy Pork with thick noodles. For beginners, I’d try the thin noodles. Once you’ve gotten a taste for the Q, I’d try the thick noodles.

Review №33

2019-08-15 20:51:56

Came here on a Thursday afternoon with no wait!Food: I got the garlic pork pulled fried noodles and I was really pleasantly surprised by the chewiness of the noodles! I loved how thick and fresh they were and I was able to get the lowest spice level so the garlic wasn’t overwhelming. It was a good portion size too and I couldn’t finish all of it.Service: Food comes in about 10 minutes so it’s really quick and fast! Cash only.Ambiance: very casual Chinese place!Overall, was solid food but nothing too stellar about the experience.

Review №34

2023-07-04 21:41:04

Decent taste but it’s hard to believe they are still cash only. Nearly 20$ cash for a bowl of noodle. Is it legal to be cash only and shield income from taxes?

Great tasting noodle. But you better be ready when order. They are busy.

Review №36

2018-10-16 23:04:14

Its a very busy eatery! The noodles are chewy! Many different soup base for the noodles. But besides noodles, there are not many choices. I am surprised that the appetizer pork ears are in satay sauce. If you are craving for noodles, especially spicy one. This is good place to try!

Review №37

2021-09-06 06:22:35

The noodles here are pretty Q. We ordered the special garlic noodles, tomato egg noodles, and pig ears. Pig ears were super tasty and had a unique flavor. The tomato egg noodles could use more tomato and egg. The special garlic noodles were delicious; I loved the extra thick Q noodles and the pork is well seasoned. Next time I’ll definitely order the liangpi and try some other noodles!

Review №38

2022-07-24 20:31:22

9 dollars for a mini liang pi？ and hot soup in a plastic to-go bowl? The taste is not even close to authentic. Cash only is so inconvenient! No, will not come back again

2020-10-29 20:52:59

Theyre finally open!!!!I used to come here with my coworkers, sometimes twice a week. Yummy, chewy hand pulled noodles with spicy sauce.At the moment, they are doing to go orders only, with a limited menu. I hope they bring back their full menu soon.

One of the best noodle I ever enjoyed. Several appetizers are very delicious too. Its usually crowdy.They reopened on October 20, they take phone order now. Current menu is in attached photos.

Such an amazing bowl of soup for the price ($12) that will fill you right up. We didnt need to wait long for a group of 5. If you are looking for a place to eat, this is the place!

When craving for noodles but you dont know what you want, this is the place for you! Many options to pick from ...Clear to spicy broth. You get your traditional beef noodles soup or sour pickle pork noodles.

Was craving for authentic Xi’an noodles today and found this place! It was exactly what I wanted. The hot oil spicy noodle was right on point, and the noodle was clearly made from scratch! The portion size was very big, and I had slightly half of the bowl left. The price was super fair too

Review №44

2019-02-24 22:27:29

Chewy noodles that blow up in your tummy - flat or round with lots of choices for dry or soup servings . Service was fast for us - shared a table w another couple 4 people seated 6. Food came fast and was very good - couldn’t finish it all and we were plenty hungry. Family friendly - date friendly as it wasn’t too loud......

I was looking for something similar to Xians Famous Foods in nyc and heard about this place.One thing to note is that they only take cash! so not contactless in covid :(I got the dry thick noodles, garlic sauce with pork noodles, and the sauce was yummy with lots of choy. I went during covid and got takeout.In the noodles most of the sauce settled at the bottom by the time I got home ~15 mins after I picked it up- so you definitely have to mix it together before eating. The noodles were a bit thick (not width but depth/height), they werent that flat.Xian famous foods is much better by far but this place is not bad!

Review №46

Flavor was weak. Beef stew was 95% fat. The only decent dish was the Rouburgers warmly toasted bun. Cash only. Dont know why its packed house. Will not return.

2018-12-05 04:52:17

My Go-to noodles place. It doesnt skimp on the meat, and their sauces and spices are all amazing. Most importantly, though, their noodles. They seem to go on forever, always with the perfect doughiness - Qeue in mandarin basically describes al dente.CASH ONLY

Great broth and noodles. Very flavorful and rich. However the single use bowls don’t feel on par with the high quality food (perhaps it’s just a COVID thing)

Simple hot noodles in broth with different types of meat and vegetables. Very large servings, good for next day also. Cash only!

Noodles are good, but cash only. No Venmo payments either. Kinda a bummer.

Review №53

2022-10-03 05:02:42

I was there yesterday (Saturday) 10/1/22 for lunch. I ordered a roasted beef soup noodle and cold noodle. The beef tasted good but a bit chewy and the noodle was chewy too. I dont like chewy food. The cold noodle had no taste, teasing the cook forgot to put spices in it. The services overall was not bad. Prices were ok.

At this point, Ive visited qq noodle so many times since 2019 it is hard for me to imagine my life without this restaurant in my life. Before covid, they had a more extensive menu but after covid, theyve kept their staple menu items. I LOVE their noodles. The garlic pork dry noodle and hot oil dry noodle have my heart. They are my ultimate favorites. If you love dry noodles and are a fan of hand pulled noodles, look no further. My friends, family, and I have probably tried every item on their menu and I love almost all of them. The noodle texture is indescribably bouncy and has the right amount of chew to it. Do keep in mind that this place is cash only though

It serves the best noodle in Bay Area, and is our must visit for dine in or take out if passing by. Braised beef noodle soup is my kid’s favorite, while I also recommend leek egg with round noodle.

As the name suggests! QQ! It’s soft and chewy hand pulled noodle. If you’re into spicy food, I’d recommend #20 on the menu

Review №61

2022-11-10 19:50:27

I had the leek egg noodles. It was one of the dry egg noodle items. The flavors were good and the portions were big for me. I would have personally liked a little more spice as well.

Review №62

2022-05-17 05:28:09

Efficient service and very al dente noodles just how I like them. They really know how to create an ideal bowl of noodles with texture flavor and variety of simple ingredients. Every bite is a perfect bite to me. Been coming here for years ever since they opened - I used to go all the way out to their Milpitas location before they opened this one. Im serious this place is delicious. Dont think about it and just go!

Review №63

2022-10-06 20:49:05

The noodles are very chewy (as the name of the restaurant would suggest)! I came here with a big group and everyone liked what they ordered. There are good options for both people who like spicy noodles and people who dont like to eat spicy food.

Fresh and hand made noodle, super good. Although they don’t have lamb dish right now due to worker shortage, but their other noodle dish are all pretty good. I particularly like the wide noodle. Cash only and no delivery!

I really enjoy this bowl, #8 on the menu, sour & spicy soup noodles with pork.

Update post COVID-19: the menu has changed quite a bit. They have a sub set of items from the original menu. Some things no longer available as of 10/30/2022Chicken noodle soupPan fried noodlesTomato egg noodle soup-----Favorite bay area noodle joint. Chewy/bouncy noodles and awesome flavors. Be sure to bring cash since its cash only. Ive been here often enough to have tried all of their noodle bowls that I wanted to. If youre there during the summer, definitely try the green noodles which is only available during that time of the year.

Review №72

2022-10-04 05:12:51

One star for the noodle and can’t give anymore since I just can’t not see how this place is still CASH ONLY in 2022. come on people! and they say they been taking cash for 10 years ever since LOL, WELL i guess you can do cash only for the next 10 years until federal reserve stops printing paper money anymore and lets see what you gonna take instead, maybe trading gold and silver like in ancient China🤣Anyways great place for cash carriers and love decent noodle but avoid if you dont carry cash like the rest of us. Try Lanzhou noodles in cupertino or milpitas, they take credit card and the noodle are better :)

2018-09-15 21:19:58

Great noodles, fresh and handmade. Noodles have a very chewy and elastic quality, in a good way. Its a unique texture that I havent experienced at other restaurants. Havent tried them all, but the ones I have had were all pretty good. The egg and leeks noodles is definitely top 3, maybe my favorite.

Decent noodle spot. Noodles are fresh, pay +$2 for a larger portion.

Review №77

2017-11-21 02:33:22

This place is great. All they have is noodles which makes ordering super simple. They have soup noodles and dry noodles. Ordered the spicy beef noodle soup and it was very tasty. The spiciness seemed to be in the oil on top of the soup which was good for my dad. I would have preferred the broth itself to be spicy instead. Regardless this was place was delicious and I would definitely recommend coming here. 👍🏼

Review №78

2019-05-15 14:14:40

Food is very traditional. There are only two things I have tried on the menu and that’s the spicy pork and I substituted it for the flat fat noodles with bok choy. You can’t deviate too much from the menu. The noodles are fresh. I also ordered another dish on another visit but I couldn’t eat it cause it had a numbing taste/feeling to your mouth, it came from the vegetable they put in it. Service was fast. My coworker and I drove from Campbell, ordered, ate there and made it back to work on time. (1 hr). I can’t guarantee that would happen all the time. The soups look good. Noodles will explode in your belly so don’t eat all your food!!! You’ll feel too uncomfortable. 5 stars cause food is good, clean, fast service, price reasonable, overall good!

Review №79

2020-11-23 16:12:36

Noodle is OK, a little bit overcooked. Soup is not salty thats a plus since most of the restaurants use too much salt.Stir fry noodles doesnt have the wok qi that I am expecting (no stir fry aroma/flavor created via high heat BBQ/grilling effect) no other ingredient flavor either only can taste the soy sauce.$$$ way too high for this place but service not bad so give them 3 stars but for food is more like 2 stars. Oh they did cook their beef soft and tender though

Review №80

2020-09-19 15:39:03

I don’t get why people complain about not having enough choices. Just go to a different restaurant if you’re not in the mood, that’s what most people do. It’s a noodle shop, they serve noodles. If they’re good at the noodles they serve then why would you want to sacrifice quality because you want more options even though you can only eat one bowl of noodles.I never have to be sad about not having enough noodles for all my broth.

Review №81

2018-02-05 00:01:55

Had higher expectations of this place. Starting with the soup: there is a bit too much oil, and the flavour falls flat. The noodles are pretty good; they are the perfect amount of chewiness and absorb flavour from the soup very well. The toppings also fall flat. I picked the beef stew, and the chunks of meat were quite grainy and hard to chew.Overall, it wasnt my best noodle experience, but it wasnt bad. The prices are okay, and I might come again just to try out their dry noodles as well.

The 油泼面 (youpo main) is absolutely fantastic. Other noodle dishes are also quite good. Reasonable prices and quick service. Except for prime times parking is pretty easy in the parking lot. Suggest bringing cash for payment.

If you love noodles, then youll love qq noodles. Hand-pulled noodles is the standard fare here, so youve already made one of the best choice coming here to satisfy your noodle craving. The price is affordable, around $12-13. The broth for the noodle soups are flavorful, brought out separately in another bowl from the noodles for you to mix as you wish. There are no small, medium, and large sizes because all the noodle dishes are simply served in one standard size (about the size of a med-large). The service is quick.tldr; you cant go wrong here, youll love this place

Cash only to evade tax. The servers are very rude, if you don’t have cash on you, they will ask you to leave your valuable personal belongings in their store in case you run away on your way to the ATM. The ATM charges you $3.25 service fee.Do not ask where they said cash only otherwise they will ask if you are blind.

They serve 刀削麵（knife cut noodles）, which are a slightly rarer variety of chinese noodle. However, the noodles feel is very satisfying. I got the beef noodle soup, specifically the regular version, since they also have a 濃湯 (thick soup) version. I highly recommend this place. Also, service isnt bad (a plus for an asian restaurant). Just note, it is cash only!

I like the texture of the noodles, but the braised beef broth is a bit too light for me. The beef itself is okay, some of them are tender but a few are chewy.

2-3 stars during COVID, 4 stars before. Reasonable flavor Shaozi or Chili noodles. Very enjoyable bouncy noodle texture. During COVID, lost a few menu items that I liked including lamb soup noodle/flatbread and the meat sandwich. Lots of easy to spill plastic ware bowls used during COVID.

These noodles are fantastic. For lunch I would get the hot oil noodle and the tomato egg noodles is also good! Usually there is limited parking in that plaza and there is a small wait on weekends to be seated. I personally order to go and eat at home :)

I like this noodle place a lot. There are multiple varieties of noodles of different styles (although the spicy ones are my favorites). Their high quality has been super consist so you always get what you expect.

Had the #8, the house specialty. Pretty good noodle soup and good portion overall though the meat/pork portion was quite small -- especially for the price. Just personally, I would rank this below my favorite Chinese noodle, chou-fun. Also, I would choose Pho and Tibetan (hand pulled also) noodle soup. In any case, it was good and thus giving 4 stars.

Expected more because of a friends strong recommendation, but the noodles here, while fine, were not anywhere near the top tier of noodles Ive had. The space is barebones and service is efficient, but the noodles themselves were disappointingly bland. We needed to add our own black vinegar and chili sauce to the beef noodles because they seemed almost watery. The ground pork spicy noodles were barely spicy. The liang pi was the best/most flavorful of the dishes we ordered.

Delicious handpulled noodles for a pretty low price! Try their appetizers too, all of them are really tasty even if they seem usual. Their dry noodle dishes are a little better than the soup noodle dishes in my opinion.

Love the garlic pork noodle, egg and chive noodle and the beef in chilli oil dish. It gets busy by 6:45pm and especially the winter.Depending on the day you go, the noodle can be inconsistent. Sometimes over cooked, sometimes watery, sometimes just right. But for the portion, Chinese restaurant benchmark, you cant complain.The soup noodles tend to lack Broth flavor and I recommend the sauce noodles.

Got it to go. The veggie salad was a small portion for 6.50. Maybe you get more when you dine in? Got #1 which was pretty good. #3 was on the salty side. Spicy beef noodle soup was kind of bland and had a complimentary small fly. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

My go-to place for authentic Chinese noodle. Order special hot chili oil noodle, the noodle has got great texture and the chili oil adds so much flavor. This place is clean, fast in serving food and properly priced.

Update #2: after dozens of times here, today we ordered bowls 23 and 24 (leek and eggs, and garlicky pork) and mixed both of them together. Literally took half of his dish and put it in my bowl, have him half of mine and then we mixed everything. That was delish.Update: I love this place, but whoever wrote in the description that this is a serene eatery with a Zen-like air was probably dreaming of another place.They put the calories on the menu for each dish, 900 calories for some, but portions are super generous so its hard to finish a full bowl. I always take noodles home, and Im normally the kind to eat my full dish and then some more.Food: 4 starsAmbience: 4 starsService: 3 stars - its OK, but clearly not the focus.Value: 4 starsThe food is quite delicious. Here are my recommendations:* the rouburger, a pulled pork slider, is a great appetizer for pork lovers like me.* Liang Pi is another great appetizer dish, we get it every time. Its basically noodles and gluten, and its a cold dish. Its very flavorful and the cooling effect makes it feel lighter, particularly as part as this big meal.* The braised beef noodle dishes are delicious. Im more of a pork person usually, but this braised beef is tender, well seasoned and makes life great.The spiciness level in their spicy dishes, such as spicy pork noodles, is very good. I can tolerate and enjoy it despite not usually eating spicy food, so go for it if interested.TIP: their wide, flat noodles are tastier, ask for those even if your dish has others by default and theyll substitute!

Very authentic noodles and servants are polite and kind. For someone cannot drive like me, I would even call a Uber to have noodles here every now and then. (My boyfriend and I agreed that this one is far better than any restaurants in UK, at least better than any in Edinburgh 😂) Recommend 油泼面 !

Super crowded!!! I opted to get the food to go to avoid the long wait list... The food is great... Customer service is subpar. Granted, they were super busy, but a lot of what do u want?!? and taking a call in the middle of talking to u, etc. They said it would take 10 min to be ready and it actually took 20.. Kinda funny though he almost gave my order to someone else... And when he said the order in Chinese, I said it was mine not his... Then he also realized he almost gave me the wrong soup. Overall a bit disorganized and rude but hey... U go there for the food

The heavy wooden chairs and tables add a unique element to this tasty noodle shop. While we were ordering, we could see (and hear) in the kitchen the chefs slapping the fresh dough on the counter as they prepared it. Various types of homemade noodles in great big bowls with fresh ingredients. Cash only.

* Must-try dishes:- SPECIAL HOT OIL NOODLE, an authentic food from Xian China, add some vinegar before you start and it is awesome;- HOUSE SPECIAL SOUR & SPICY w/PORK NOODLE SOUP, spicy and sour taste, very appetizing and cant stop before finishing it;- GREEN VEGETABLES SALAD, the combination of noodles with vegetables is irrefutable.* Cost: $10~20/person* 5-star reason: I have spent 20 years in ShaanXi, the capital of noodles in China and this restaurant is the only noodles place in south bay I would visit. Tables turn over fast, so no ridiculous waiting and it takes short time to prepare/eat the food.

Pros:- hand made noodles are extremely chewy and delicious- gives you pictures of all the dishes and includes the nutrition facts on every dish- lots of authentic selections of noodles (tomatoes and egg soup, pork and mustard plant, spicy beef)- the spicy beef soup I had had very tender and flavorful beefCons- they dilute the soup with water right before it goes out the order window so the first sips of soup taste like water. You have to mix to make the soup drinkable. Even after mixing, the soup is not that great (it is OK)- could be a pro or con but the bowls of noodles are huge. Most bowls are above 1000 calories. I just divided mine in half to eat later

The menu online and reviews dont highlight a big factor of this restaurant: its focus on xian region food! Was glad to see I could fulfill my liangpi addiction and this place did NOT disappoint!Three factors I use to judge the level of liangpi dish:1) Texture of the Noodle (its very important for this dish!)2) Sauce3) Spice levelQQ does well on 2/3 - the level of spicyness wasnt there and the hot sauce they had available wasnt the oil based spice sauce Ive grown to expect. Regardless, the garlic/vinegar taste in the sauce was strong and amazing! But the best part was the rubbery texture of the noodle! The gluten pieces were abound and plenty so you can be assured this was made fresh.The lamb burger was great! And the beef pieces were also delicious.Overall, service was quick and food tasted great. Just wish it had a little more kick va other xian places Ive been too in North America. Also, this place only accepts cash so be sure to have handy. All 3 dishes came to roughly 25 dollars(no tip).

My favorite spot for handmade/pulled noodles. #10 spicy beef noodle soup and #20 hot oil with noodles are the ones I order most. Ive tried a few other noodle soup dishes and they have all delivered in flavor and taste.This restaurant is CASH ONLY. So, make sure you stop at the ATM or have cash handy.Recently with a new restaurant (Uzumakiya Udon) and a new tea spot (TP Tea)that opened in the same lot, parking is a nightmare, so beware.

Great, chewy noodles! I didnt care for the Liang pi, but the long boiled pork soup noodle was very comforting but not too heavy with what felt like a nourishing bone broth that I drank most of. The noodles come with a good amount of Shanghai bai cai so it feels like a balanced meal. The spicy fish noodles was also light tasting, too light and not very spicy or complex. The tofu skin appetizer was chewy and garlicky. Good place for an easy meal. They have high chairs as well.

The most delicious hand pulled noodles are in Cupertino at QQ Noodle. My favorite dish is the Garlic Sauce with Pork Noodles (dry). The fat, wide hand pulled noodles have this amazing chewy texture that leaves you wanting to stuff even more and more into your mouth to repeat the cycle of blissful chewyness. Combined with the spicy garlic sauce this is absolute heaven. My dad and I always beg the waiters for extra garlic sauce. WARNING: You will reek of raw garlic the next day so dont eat this before an interview or big presentation-- you will be QQing after and regret your decision.Ask for some scissors to cut the noodles (I dont think why the waiters dont automatically give these to your with the noodle bowls). The atmosphere is very casual but clean and modern. Food comes out quickly and the waiters are friendly and attentive. There is ample seating for large groups and different party sizes.

This place has very authentic Chinese food. No. 20 is my favorite, you will love it if you dont mind a little bit of spicy. The food is relatively cheap.

Downside is that you need to have cash on you. They dont accept credit or debit card. Food is good, but I got it to go and because its was too hot it affected the taste of the food. If you can stay there and eat the food, do that its better than taking it to go.

Fast and delicious Northwest China style noodles. Simply satisfying. One little thing: cash only.

Be aware: cash only. Can be crowded at peak hours. Best noodles in this area.

Ordered takeout from here. Entrees were ~$13 and really good (and oily).
