Dun Huang

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Authentic Northwest Chinese BBQ - Must Try! Came here for dinner with friends tonight and we were pleasantly surprised! Highly recommend to anyone in LIC! Food Highlights: · Beef skewers: Fantastic! Tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. A must-order. · Grilled eggplant: Loaded with garlic and super soft. If you love garlic, this is absolutely perfect. · Cumin lamb: Super authentic! The cumin flavor was rich, the meat was tender, and the onions helped balance the richness perfectly. This is the star dish. · Ham sausage, cauliflower, and chicken wings: All on point! The grill master knows their stuff - everything came out perfectly charred, smoky, and flavorful. We also tried the wide glass noodles and Chinese burgers (pork & lamb), which were delicious as well. They even have a fun challenge to eat 3.5 lbs of noodles in 15 mins! Generous portions (around $50 per person), friendly service, and a cozy, unpretentious vibe. Will definitely be back for the BBQ!

I came in during lunch time on the weekend and there was no wait. It was relatively empty with a couple other customers in the restaurant. The restaurant was clean and had a decent atmosphere. The music was not overly loud. I ordered the braised beef noodle soup with wide noodles and the food arrived quick. I was expecting the noodles to be wide like chow fun noodles but it was closer to the width of fresh pho noodles. The meat was tender but some of the noodles clumped together, which made it less soft and bouncy of a texture. The broth was light with a mild kick. You can’t really go wrong with this for the price.

Dun Huang is a pretty regular spot for us. The noodles have an exquisite pairing with the broth and toppings. The broth absorbs the umami flavor of the meat, and the noodles have an amazing texture. The lamb skewers are easy to chew and generously seasoned with spices, creating a spicy explosion in your mouth. For desert we tried the sticky rice for the first time and it did not disappoint. The flavor was sweet but not too sweet, and the fillings are super delicious as well. Super good overall!

This Dun Huang location is consistent with the other locations — reliable, quick, and satisfying. The food comes out pretty fast, which makes it a great option for a casual meal or quick dinner. I ordered the signature noodles with a mild spice level, which turned out to be very light —even though it had two chili peppers on the menu. The flavors are clean and balanced, and the portions are generous as always. Overall, a solid and dependable spot for hand-pulled noodles, especially if you’re already a fan of the Dun Huang chain.

A simple noodle dish with great hand-pulled noodles! The noodles were chewy and super long, and the broth wasn’t spicy even at the 🌶️🌶️ spice level, so you’ll be fine even if your spice tolerance is low. I personally prefer the bowl here over more highly rated noodle shops in the area, because the noodles definitely taste hand-pulled. It’s also only $13 per bowl and the portion size is very decent. (You can also add extra meat for $5, but I’m not sure there was that much more meat compared to my regular bowl, which had an adequate amount.) Service was all I wanted from a casual eatery; I imagine you’d be able to get more across if you speak Chinese, but communicating in English was fine and we got our food pretty quickly. Not sure why the rating is low here, but if they made improvements since, it definitely works now.
