DunHuang Syosset

I recently visited Dunhuang Chinese Restaurant in Syosset, and overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. The ambiance was inviting and modern, and the service was attentive. We tried a variety of dishes, and the Mala Noodles were absolutely amazing—packed with bold, spicy flavors that really hit the spot! The Lamb Skewers were perfectly grilled with just the right amount of seasoning. The Signature Beef Noodles were a standout as well, with tender beef and deliciously flavorful broth. The Sweet and Sour Ribs had a great balance of tangy and sweet, and the Crab Soup Dumplings were full of flavor with a rich, savory broth inside. However, the Pork and Lamb Bun didn’t quite live up to the expectations—it was a bit underwhelming in taste compared to the other dishes. Still, the overall meal was a great experience, and we definitely plan to return. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Chinese flavors in Syosset!

My kids love non-spicy Lanzhou noodles, so we ordered the clear broth and pickled cabbage beef noodles — they were delicious! The lamb skewers could be improved a bit, maybe grilled to be more crispy. Overall, it was great and we’ll definitely come back again.

This is my local go-to Chinese restaurant, highly recommended! Absolutely the most authentic northeast Chinese noodle dishes I’ve ever had in NYC and Long Island with good price. They also have great Si Chuan dishes. Made right in the restaurant fresh, tasty soup and many options of noodles. My favorite is the sour spicy beef rice noodle, and lamb burger! Always craving for them! They also have friendly staff and chef, nice vibes and feel like a good hometown neighbor!

DunHuang a city in Northwest China once a key stop on the ancient silk road. Dun Huang serves noodle dishes that are famous in Northwest China. This Dun Huang is run by a wonderful family. The food is always consistently delicious. Try the N1 Lanzhou special noodle with cilantro and chili oil for a little kick. N2 is a braised beef noodle dish with baby bakchoy. Two of our families favorites. We also enjoy the Chinese hamburgers or rou mo jia. Great starter for the kids. The Lamb skewers are tasty with the chili seasoning as well. Overall a nice find in Syosset.

We got the signature with sliced beef and the braided beef noodle soup, Xiao long bak, and spicy wontons and the lamb pocket (forgot the actual name). The spicy wontons were ok, not the best, but not bad either. Mainly, I didn't like the watery soupy base as opposed to a strong, spicy thicker base. The Xiao long bao was bad. Don't get of you're a connoisseur. Mainly, the wrap was very thick which ruins it for me. Also they don't automatically give you ginger/vinegar sauce. The beef noodle soup was overall ok. I got thick noodles with he braised beef. The beef was mediocre, not tender with melting tendon. My broth was good, and the thick noodles were excellent. Oh and the bok Choi was cold and hard, didn't appear to be cooked with he soup at all. My wife's signature on the other hand... She didn't like much. She reported the noodles were cold, and the broth was not as flavorful as mine. We didn't like the lamb pocket (whatever it's called). Honestly, it tastes more like Mexican seasoning and felt like it was eating a taco. No that that's necessarily a bad thing, but not what we were expecting or hoped for there. Lol Overall, the place was on, but not the same as say flushing.

DunHuang is a restaurant for Chinese noodles. We came on a holiday Monday for lunch. Seating is a bit cramped because the dining area of the restaurant is small, they can fit maybe 5 parties total. I think this place can improve the decor, there wasn't a whole lot to look at inside. I ordered the zha jiang noodles, which is chewy noodles in a meaty brown sauce. No complaints, it was good! I thought the portion was appropriate and the price was also fine. It was a little unusual that water was not provided to each table. I wasn't parched necessarily, but it would have been nice if we had some glasses of water.

Great regional chinese. Must try!

Trash service. The guy literally said they don’t make the orders in order. They just give prioritize the walk in first the online order. And it’s already been 35 mins but still not started working on my order. Not a systematic rule. And I feel like it serving their Asian community first.

Odd for me but good is good. They packed a bag of a few chilled components to a soup and gave a large heated container of broth to heat the other ingredients. Flavor was there so all in all it's a go for take out soups. A few basic tables in there and they are willing to do table service. A family was there from a nearby town and it's there go to place.

Well I like how authentic this place is right in the center of Syosset. Everyone walking in was Asian, which was a good sign. I really enjoyed the noodle beef soup. It was delicious. I would say the cumin sandwich was slightly disappointing. I've had better in the city.

The first time we tried Dun Huang restaurant several months ago, the food was delicious. We visited again on August 18th, mediocre at best. Star rating: 2.5 now

I was excited when a friend told me about Dun Huang in Syosset. I know there is a Dun Huang in Flushing which I've been to before, so it was music to my ears to hear that there was another authentic chinese noodle / burger place to hit up close to home. The place itself is located right next to the Syosset LIRR station. There isn't a lot of parking in the front so it's probably best to park in the LIRR parking lot in the back. Inside, it's pretty tiny as there are about 3 tables for dine in, but I was able to dine in without any trouble during the 3 times I've visited. I always get the signature Lanzhou beef noodle ($10) and either the pork burger ($4.50) or a spicy cumin lamb burger ($5). Both items are pretty good IMO. Everything about the noodles is pretty satisfying; the broth is substantial, and the chili oil they put in is not very spicy at all but adds a small needed kick. The noodle texture is pretty good too and it all comes together nicely. Nothing too special about the lamb burger, but it is a bit spicy and pretty satisfying to eat along with the more neutral broth of the noodles. I got a pork burger the last time I went, and that's pretty good too. If you get both a noodle and burger, you should leave pretty full and satisfied. So I would give this place 4 stars, but one pretty annoying thing about this place is that they charge for water. I don't understand why they do this; it'd be hard to believe they're not able to serve water normally without charge just like every other restaurant, but it's the case here. So I have to dock a star for that reason. Otherwise, I feel like the food is pretty solid and a welcome addition to the Long Island food scene.

I want to start off by saying i had to instantly knock down one star since they do not serve water that is not bottled and cost $1. i read this in another review as i was waiting to order . (we instead went for boba next door and bringing it in) This place was decently busy on a sunday morning. the prices are a little bit steep ($10 for 6 soup dumplings) compared to bayside and flushing. - hand pulled noodles were the only redeeming factor. you could see the guy in the back pulling them to different thicknesses. great texture. chewy and no mushy - the different soup was bland and oily (you could tell there was added MSG) and overall disappointing. the best by far was the braised beef noodle soup, had the deepest beef flavor over the lanzhou broth. You could tell instantly the lanzhou noodles had less flavor since the broths were very clear. -- good beef ratio the soups. -- the lanzhou soup was pictured with pickled cabbage, but when the bowl came out it was thinly sliced radish?? - as for the soup dumplings, they had thick skin and broke easily when picking them up from the steam basket - service: the waitress had a slight attitude when we mentioned that one meal was forgotten. but she quickly brought it bthe bathroom has a faint smell of cigarettes and so did the front door when the chef went out for breaks during our meal.

Stopped in to eat and managed to get a table. Only one lady there in the front. One or two chefs in the back. It was meant to have a homey feel I guess. One thing for certain, the chef takes pride in the food. He delivers some dishes to the table himself. Wonton in chili oil is meaty and flavorful. There's some soup at the bottom. I ordered their signature Lanzhou beef noodle soup. Noodle is fantastic. Definitely freshly made. Husband had the Zhao jiang noodle, which looked put together well. The ground beef stuck to the noodle for every bite. We also ordered the mapo tofu. There was a good amount of ground beef with the mapo tofu, which is different than most places. It was also a little soupy. The dish was so delicious we saved the sauce to bring home. Great place for homemade dishes. Can't go wrong with their noodles!

Ownership changed recently . Food is not as good as used to be. The noodle is not handmade feel like my home cooking is better.

I've been waiting for a long time for this place to open. 3 years to be exact but it was well worth the wait. To finally have an authentic hand pulled noodle place has me finally feeling like moving to long Island wasn't such a bad idea. A short and sweet menu which covers everything you could want without making you feel overwhelmed. We've tried the signature noodles but the braised beef is the standout and a must have. Perfectly tender beef, spicy broth without being too spicy where you can't taste anything and a portion of both meat and noodles that leave you full. We've also had the zha Jiang noodles which is another winner. You will not regret coming here. We've only gotten take out, but they do have two small tables to eat in,but think food court quick type of seating. Very impressed and super pleased they are finally open. Clean restaurant and even nicer staff. Best noodles I've had in a very long time!

The noodle couple and other stuff we got here was pretty good and the people working there were very nice as well .

Unfortunately, this is not the same restaurant that opened a few years ago. Based on the uninteresting food and menu changes, there has been a change in ownership and chef. While previously one could look forward to authentic "mah laht" spiciness and flavors, today's dishes were universally bland and of a pedestrian quality. I am truly disappointed that Syosset has lost one of its unique and notable eateries.

I ordered two noodle meals through Uber Eats, but only one meal was delivered. This was already disappointing, but it wasn't my first negative experience with this restaurant. When I visited the restaurant in person previously, the service was nearly nonexistent. Despite the lack of service, I noticed that they had automatically added a tip to the receipt without my consent. These repeated issues with both delivery and in-person service have left me very dissatisfied.

We were really excited to try this place after seeing it had opened in Syosset. They're definitely very popular with a steady flow of customers for the 25 or so mins we were there waiting for our takeout order. Large families were dining in and a lot were doing takeout. There's convenient street parking right in front plus it's only a few doors down from Coco. We got about $70 worth of food, sadly they were out of their Chinese burgers so we'll have to try them next time. Shockingly when we got home, our Signature Beef Lanzhou noodles had no beef whatsoever in the broth container and there was only one sad bok choy floating in it. And in our Mala noodles, no bok choy to be found. Just broth. No scallions or anything else either. The flavor of the broths were nice and noodles were good after we quickly blanched them (as instructed on the soup container) but lack of meat or choy was really disappointing. Their fries were good but hubby had hoped they'd be crispy plus they were curly fries but just crinkle cut ones. The crab meat soup dumplings and the eggplant were on point as was their beef pan fried noodles (great chew and flavor). We'll give them another try but will for sure check there's meat included as promised next time.

Stopped by on a Wednesday night with the little cousins and my younger brother after seeing that this place finally opened. I was pretty worried because I haven't really had great experiences eating out in LI and since this place is new, it was a shot in the dark. But they did not disappoint! We started with the sweet and sour ribs, spiced cumin lamb burger, and wonton in chili oil. The ribs were alright, pretty small pieces and not like the regular rack of ribs. It was a little oily as that's a common theme here. The cumin burger was great! We only got 1 to share and I actually wanted to get some more to try. The meat was tender and was perfectly spiced. The cumin cut through really well too and overall, it was a good balance. The wonton in chili oil was in a soup and not doused in hot chili oil like I was used to. The wonton stuffing was average and tasted like something I could make at home. Definitely a homemade vibe! Pretty good. We ordered two orders of the braised beef noodle soup and it was packed with flavor! A little salty for me since I don't eat super salty food but my brother thought it was perfect and he's super picky (always complaining about food being bland). Not too salty where I felt like I had to chug water but just enough that I made a note of it. The meat also wasn't the braised beef I'm used to when ordering this dish. But overall, this was a great bowl of noodles. Bouncy noodles, flavorful broth, and good portion. My brother also ordered extra noodles and wow it definitely doubled his portion! They use mainly all disposable utensils even for indoor dining besides our noodle bowls that came in an actual bowl. Service was sweet and simple, where you order up at the counter first. This place definitely feels homey with its small shop vibes (four tables that seat 4 each) and the flavors were nice and clean! A nice addition to this neighborhood. It was not perfect, but for Asian food in this neighborhood, I think this may be one of the best I've tried. Will definitely be back if I am thinking about dinner in this area.

Ok so Tgis place was a disappointment - beef Noodle Soup - no vegetables it was ok Pickled Cucumber - was aged - had potential when fresh but it was puckered and not fresh made Soup dumplings - were ok , had better Wontons in chicken broth - wontons were good - but "chicken" broth was gray and tasteless - they should have used a boxed bone broth instead of water from what looked like it the washing's of a dirty wok Sodas from fridge were not cold ; no ice or cups To make it more disappointing , it was plastic fork and spoons However with that said - the person who took the order was very pleasant. I was not expecting 5 star dining, but I was disappointed in food- I was hoping for a yummy Asian noodle house closer than Flushing Bummer

If I could give half stars, I would give this place 2.5 stars. Bad start because I placed order by phone and was told it would be 25 minutes. Turned out to be almost an hour. It was a Friday night but then they should take that into account when giving wait time. We got crab soup dumplings, zha Jiang noodles, braised beef with noodles and the Lanzhou beef noodles. Soup dumplings were pretty good although cold and they had burst by time we got home, but you can tell flavors are good if you get them to dine in. Lanzhou beef noodles were pretty good with a decent kick. The other two dishes were sub-par. Not enough sauce for zha jiang and as others complained the braised beef noodles just had soup, noodles and a couple of pieces of radishes; no beef chunks or bok choy (see picture). Reminded me of old Wendy's commercial, "Where's the beef??" Not coming back.

Delicious and authentic Chinese food- highly recommend the spicy cumin lamb burger, one of our favorite items on the menu- had to go back the next day to get more. The meat is tender and aromatic with hints of cumin. There are bits and pieces of red/green pepper in it, which soaked up all the flavor. Perfect amount of sauce and the bun was not soggy at all. Today we also got the double cooked pork belly and the spicy oil spill noodles. The pork belly was crispy and a bit salty for me but my boyfriend said it was perfectly fine. The spicy oil spill noodles weren't hot noodles as we expected, but nonetheless, it was delicious. Flavor was garlicky with a bit of heat from the oil. The oil and sauce were on the bottom of the container so we shook it up before enjoying it.

Awesome local noodle shop! Their main dishes are surprisingly good too. Highly recommend the boneless chicken and twice cooked pork belly

The name of this place is NOT DunHuang, but rather Dun Huang. Ha. I get it but no. The food and service do not deserve such a pun. Where to start... The service: how am I annoying you? Literally called in my order. Just came in to pick it up and yet I get attitude? Am I bothering you? Unacceptable. Your bad day is not my fault and sure as sugar should not be my bloody problem. The food: The Bok Choy: bland. Well cooked with a little crunch but how did you forget the Um... what do you call it? FLAVOR! The "Chinese burger": I don't like arepas. I love Colombian food but those bland bread hockey pucks do nothing for me. So, a completely bland bread disc, sliced and filled with tasty meat. So what's my problem? The oil they used to make it spicy: just poured on. The poor bread was like a drowned squirrel. So, to recap, tasty beef fragments, awash in a sea of flavorless spicy oil which made the bread soggy. In a word, yuck. In two words, yuck yuck. The Lo Mein, their SELF-PROCLAIMED SPECIALTY, hand rolled noodles, was just meh. How? Well, starch is not a flavor so we can just leave it at that. Your specialty is meh. Last and also least, the wonton in chili soup, a thick layer of oil over tasty LOOKING tan soup which was not tasty. However, the oil was every bit as oily as I expected so I've got that going for me. The wontons were also bland and the skin was like a wet dress. It was like eating La Llorona (eating supernatural Mexican women, not what I was shooting for in a SOUP!) Nope. Never going back.

The flavors are good however I would skip would skip the Braised beef noodles just based on how skimpy the meat portion is Including the cilantro the overall portion was less than 2 ozs. The actual noodles was nice and bouncy and had a flavorful broth. I would suggest the signature beef noodle soup instead, this was the standout in the order, flavorful broth and chunks of tender beef. The soup dumplings leaked out most of the soup and the lamb burger was ok. I would only go back to get the signature noodles nothing else.

Nice mostly takeout place. Szechuan is the main focus and the dishes are nicely spiced but for those of us not spicy I'll, there are several dishes that hit the spot

This place gives unwelcoming feeling each time you walking in. The cashier just wanna you order and make payment and leave the counter ASAP. Their noodle is okay, but the flavor mainly comes from over pouring of MSG, which drink bottles of water won't release it. And Beef slices sometimes cold, even frozen. Cilantro often not washed and weekly old. All this makes it my least favorite dining places in Syosset. Also, be aware the coupon you use in this restaurant does not work like in other restaurants. They tax you based on the ORIGINAL PRICE, NOT the couponed price. So this trick to minimize the benefit of the discount. Dishonest!!

We were so excited to find out there's an authentic noodles place newly open in Syosset. We ordered 3 bowls of their signature Lanzhou noodles with different texture (you can choose from 5 types from extra thin to extra wide). We also got the spicy cumin lamb rougamo, zha Jiang noodles and marinated cucumber. Food arrived quick + hot and all 4 of us enjoyed the meal. The only recommendation we have is their spicy oil wasn't not spicy enough

You must visit this authentic, tasty, Chinese, town hideaway in N. Syosset, New York. I highly recommend the Stewed Pork Chinese Burger and the Sweet and Sour Short Ribs. Enjoyed the Signature Lanzhou Beef Noodles and really liked the DunHuang Cold Noodles with chicken. Can't wait to go back again. Thanks to Chris for seating us around 815pm. FYI, The restaurant is family owned with others in Midtown New York, Brooklyn, New Jersey and Los Angeles. Enjoy!

support local Asian businesses by eating here. They have gotten order wrong once but corrected it. I always come back because the food is so delicious and authentic. A rare find this deep in Long Island.

Absolutely best food I've had in the longest time. Just by chance I passed it and thought what the heck I will give it a try. Fresh sautéd veggies in the LoMein, shrimp was cooked to perfection!!! I'm ordering again with my colleagues at work, tomorrow.

Noodles are respectable.... Food leaves much to be desired. Ordered a chicken dish whose sauce was enjoyable but the chicken was only the ends of the legs. Yes the joint end with half inch of meat !! Come on at $20 there should be more than potatoes and pieces of green pepper. Will not return .... But noodles are made well.q

So far I've only had the signature Lanzhou noodles but they were amazing. Glad we finally have a decent noodle shop in town.

Great food. A little bit expensive but definitely worth the price. The staff and chef are really nice too.

Good food... especially liked their beef noodle soup, Chinese burger and wontons in chili sauce. Will be back to try the soup dumplings!

The noodles are fresh and really tasty. But I feel like they need to expand their menu more. There isn't a lot of variety.

It's my new go to noodle place. Really big fan of Chinese food, and this place is a really hit! Waiting for the food was non-existent, because we did not need to wait (they were very fast cooking and serving). The food itself was very authentic, and tasty! Recommend if you are in the area.

The signature beef noodle was good, lot of beef and hand crafted noodle, lamb bbq was little bit too salty, beef and lamb rougamo were very good, overall a very nice noodle place.

The food was good. But they don't provide tap water. Only bottle water if u ever ask for water.

Some of the best Chinese food in New York. Similar flavors to Xian Famous Foods but this place is probably even a little better. The cold noodles are amazing, the meat skewers are good, the lamb over rice is awesome, and any of the noodle stews are amazing.

The food was delicious but the ambience made eating in Chinatown elegant. We asked for water and hot tea. Unfortunately we got neither. The plastic forks were flimsy and the noodles, though delicious, were difficult to eat. We probably won't eat here again but if we were in the neighborhood we might do takeout so we can have proper silverware, hot tea and water.

Stopped in to try this for lunch. Ordered lunch to take home and it was freezing cold when I went to eat it. Less than five minutes from the restaurant to my house and it was cold. Dumplings were okay. Will not be returning.

We have been waiting for this place to open for a long time, COVID delayed the opening for a year. It was worth the wait. Just opened. Going though opening pains. Take out is fully up to speed and delivery is coming soon. The food isn't the typical American Take-out. They serve hand pulled noodles which are much tastier the the standard noodles you get everywhere else. My wife had the pan fried noodles with chicken and said they were the best she's had. I had a lamb noodle soup that was not yet on the menu and it was great the lamb cubes melted in your mouth and the noodles were delicious. It was served in a semi spicy broth that I really enjoyed. We were also asked to try wonton soup served in a chicken base and in a spicy beef base both were excellent. We were also offered to try BBQ lamb on a stick and that was good too. If this place were in Flushing I'd probably give it 4 stars. The extra star is for not having to drive to Flushing for great Chinese food. Give this place a try it's that good.

Solid noodle place. I've ordered take out a few times and the noodles are always fresh. I like their lamb and beef burgers too. For me the spicy level is just right, spicy enough you can still taste the food.

Very nice little place. The food is simple but delicious! Not a real sit down place but great service. I got the noodles with beef and requested to add a few things extra and they were very attentive. Definitely a good place to feed an Asian crave!

I'm totally addicted to their braised beef noodles. My friend brought me here one day without any expectations and now I can't stop going. I literally crave for their food! It was on point. I totally recommend everyone to come here. I had their Chinese burgers too! I tried the cumin lamb and the sliced beef, which were also very good. I go to eat at Flushing a lot and to be able to get some authentic hand made noodles near by my places, I AM BEYOND EXCITED! GO GO GO!

This place is nothing short of incredible. The food is fresh and flavorful, and you can even see the people cooking in the back. The atmosphere is very laid back and the staff are so sweet. Definitely worth a visit!
