Jiang Nan Noodle House

I just got back from this place and I'm still drooling thinking about it! The dragon fried rice is a must-try, it's like a flavor explosion in your mouth - they've got the perfect balance of sweet and savory. And don't even get me started on the schezuan noodles, spicy and numbing goodness! The pork Xiao long bao is to die for, the broth is so rich and the pork is cooked to perfection. I also had the veggie spring rolls and they were crunchy and fresh. Overall, I'd give it 5 stars, definitely going back for more!

November 2025 - family came here for an early dinner and what a great find. The family loved the food and the only leftovers we had are the cucumbers and soup. We ordered pan fried pork dumplings, steamed pork dumplings, chicken fried rice and chicken stir fried la-mian, soup and cucumber salad. All of it was very good. My 8 yr old daughter said these are the best noodles ever. Worth visiting and checking out. You can sit, have it to go or do door dash.

Craving for a bowl of hot soup noodle on this cold winter morning and we found Jiang Nan from Google map. Noodles are freshly pulled in front of you and served in flavourful hot soup. You may pick different “width” for your noodles and they will prepare it freshly at the counter. Well worth a visit if you are in search for a bowl of soup noodles.

I was looking for a tasty noodle spot for lunch not too far from home and I found it ! The service was so so but the food was great. I got the c.12 Szechuan La Mian with chicken and thick noodles. For the appetizers we had the pork dumplings and the potato scallions .. both very delicious. I’ll definitely be back

Pretty solid food. Appetizers, especially the fried dumplings and cold beef) were excellent. It’s nice that they have black vinegar at the table (albeit not labeled which can cause confusion differentiating from the soy sauce). Noodle broth was a bit underwhelming.

Saw this place while driving by and so happy that we stopped in. It was earlier in the day so it wasn't too busy, but you can see that they get quite a few to-go orders. The staff was very friendly, the service was fast, the food was fantastic and we got to watch our noodles being made. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend the flat noodles.

I’ve been here a few times as it’s consistently tasty each time. While the menu focuses on noodle variations it offers other tasty treats. Watching the noodles crafted by hand is quite entertaining. It’s made in a similar way that pizza is made, instead of spinning dough into a saucer, here they perform fancy jump rope techniques into thin tasty noodles cooked in seconds. Adorned with various proteins, veggies, & spice levels there’s bound to be something you like. I find these flavors to border the authentic side vs. Panda express. Aside from the great eats I like the fact that there’s a ev charger in the parking lot (not free though).

Quiet place. Nice spaced out tables. A good selection of dishes at reasonable prices. I wish there were a few more add on options. Spicy wasn't too spicy, but the soup had great flavor. They make their own noodles here which is pretty fun to watch.

This place was so so delicious! My girlfriend and I go to ramen and pho places all the time, so it was fun to branch out and try La Mian soup! Got the vegetable one and came with tofu. The whole dish was so flavorful and comforting. The noodles are homemade and you can watch them being made through a glass window to the kitchen which was so fun! I will be back for sure.

Can't beat some freshly hand pulled noodles! Stopped here with a friend since I had heard a lot of good things about Jiang Nan, and their Chili Volcano noodles came highly recommended. The restaurant is relatively straightforward and without frills -- you sit down, order noodles, and watch through the glass as your noodle order is hand made and pulled right in front of you. I like how for the dishes you have the option to "choose" the thickness of your noodle type, and appreciated that our server provided recommendations based on our order. The noodles came out relatively quick, and I was impressed by the large portion size (I have heard though that the takeout portion is a bit smaller). The volcano chili noodles were soo good -- the perfect bouncy texture of noodles, the right amount of savory spice, and heat! I really enjoyed my meal and sides, and will be back to try their other noodle dishes.

After you are seated You can watch while the noodles being made. Excellent noodle dishes . Large portions. Maybe it is psychological, but I feel you get more when you eat there than when you do carry out. Prices are great also.

Huge portions and options between the type of noodle you wanted. Pretty straight to the point and had many options.

Great service - staff was friendly and service was quick. The restaurant looked very clean and organized on the inside. Food was generally delicious. We liked what we ordered but I would probably try their other offerings next time. C12. Szechuan La-Mian: this vegetarian dish came with loads of different veggies and half an egg in a savory and tangy broth. The Szechuan peppercorn came through but it wasn't too spicy for me. The noodles were chewy and really good. C8. Braised Beef Soup: this noodle soup was savory but I was expecting a bit deeper beef flavor and more spice. But it was comforting. What really stole the show with both dishes was the hand pulled noodles. They were chewy and bouncy.

Came in and was promptly seated and was ordering food and a couple of drinks. We sat and waited for the food and it arrived but no drinks, the young guy ran back and forth so we waited and when he wasn't doing anything he ignored us and went to another table. This is my second time to this location and don't like being ignored multiple times when trying to get his attention. I get they are low staffed but when you're not doing anything and someone with a bigger table can easily get your attention when we've been trying for a while is irritating. My first visit was amazing. This time it's underwhelming and annoying. I've been wanting to come back here for some time and it doesn't seem worth it.

Nearly 4 years after first hearing about Jiang Nan Noodle House, we finally made the trip to eat here, the last in the quartet of Metro Detroit hand-pulled noodle places. Jiang Nan Noodle House is located in a strip mall right off of Orchard Lake, in a frankly garish looking building. Luckily, the food inside doesn't match the exterior and were not disappointed. Chili Volcano La-Mian w/ Regular Noodles ($11.95) - Super delicious. This has perfectly cooked bouncy noodles, topped with a chili/garlic oil shredded carrots, and green onions. The chili/garlic oil is extremely fragrant and somewhat pungent with a nice spice level. There is just enough sauce to coat all the noodles without leaving a huge puddle of oil on the bottom of the bowl. The only disappointment in the dish was the chopped bok choy on the side. While appreciated, the bok choy came out cold - it should have been heated up before serving. Lanzhou Beef La-Mian w/ Thick Noodles ($12.95) - The broth in this dish is quite delicate with a light herbal note. They don't add any chili oil when they serve the dish, but they do have a bottle on the table so you can adjust to your preference. The toppings are perfect (and traditional) - some super tender, thinly sliced beef shank, delicately thin sliced daikon, chopped cilantro, and green onions. The noodles were thick, nice and chewy. I do wish they gave noodle type recommendations on the menu - I found that the thick noodles don't go very well with this dish. Because the broth is so light, the thicker noodles don't get much saucy coating, resulting in a very well defined floury taste on the interior. I think this dish definitely deserves a thinner noodle. Side note: you can choose from a total of five different hand pulled noodles. You can select thin, regular and thick noodles, or if you want flat noodles they have narrow and wide. You can also customize your noodles with sides - I saw other customers order the egg and it looks like a marinated boiled egg. I regret not ordering it as an addition to my noodles. I wish we lived closer to Jiang Nan Noodle House - unfortunately it's just the furthest of the hand pulled noodle shops and we aren't able to come up here often. Jiang Nan definitely gets a recommendation from me.

The service was prompt & the ambiance is good. There is a huge window looking into the kitchen and you can see the chef throwing around the noodle dough like it's Auntie Anne's. Pretty entertaining. The crab rangoons were not that good. You can tell they were cooked frozen. The heart shaped platter for the sauce was very cute though. The soup wonton was good for the price but not the best. The dan dan mien was good but not the best i've had either. But i love the texture of the hand pulled noodles.

Great food, great service. My first time at a "noodle house" and I picked a good one. The dumplings...very good. Probably the best I ever had. Full disclosure, I did have to send the first order back because they were a little "underdone", but the second order was perfect...very flavorful, just the right amount of fry on the bottom and the filling was delicious. The La-Mian...also delicious. The broth was light and I really enjoyed the bok choy tofu (they look like croutons in the picture), but I don't think I'll do that next time. I was expecting it to be stir fried, but it tasted and looked more like it was deep-fried. The service...great! Next time I'll try a dish with sauce and flat noodles.

First time trying this place and it definitely won't be my last! We ordered a little bit of everything and it was as brought out fairly fast. The food was delicious and flavorful.

The noodle dish was delicious and just the right amount of spicy for me! The xiao long bao (dumplings) were a little too doughy though in my opinion and not enough soup inside, but they still tasted good. The service was very tentative and nice. The place is on the smaller side and cozy, but still tidy.

Having watched so many KDramas with folks slurping noodles, I've developed a strong urge to do the same. After checking Yelp reviews, I decided to give Jiang Nan Noodle House a try. So far, I've tried the Pork La-Mian and the Dragon La-Mian. Both were very delicious and satisfying. My personal preference is the Pork La-Mian, but I will continue to explore the menu for new favorites. The Jiang Nan staff is very friendly and accommodating. I was welcomed and given a menu right away. The service was fast even though the dishes are made to order. As I was checking out, I was asked about my satisfaction with the meal, thanked, and invited to return. The building was initially a bit hard to find since Orchard Lake Road is busy and crowded with lots of businesses. It helps to check out a picture of the building prior to going there the first time to make it easier to find. The interior is clean and has plenty of seating for small and large parties. There is a window to the kitchen where you can watch the chef make the handmade noodles. It's fascinating to watch a master at work. It's especially satisfying to watch the process while enjoying the noodles he's made. If you're looking for great homemade noodles, check out Jiang Nan Noodle House. Like me, you'll develop an urge to slurp noodles.

A consistent favorite in our house. the food is fresh, flavorful, and the portions are very generous! our favorites include the xiao long bao, chili volcano, Szechuan, and dan dan la-mian, as well as the fried sesame balls. We'd eat there daily, if we could!

I went with my friend and we split an entree and two appetizers. Fried pork dumplings, scallion pancakes and noodles with shrimp and chicken. They have a window by the kitchen where you can watch them make the noodles and then they add them to your plate.

I like their noodles and the side dishes. This is a place of really authentic Chinese food.

Tried the chicken and shrimp noodles- amazingly tangy sauce but it's the noodles that steal the show. Thick, tender and slippery- perfect blend to grab with chopsticks and slurp. Scallion pancakes were a bit greasy but good. I'll definitely be back.

Visited here again. Servers were very friendly. It is hand made so it took time til food came. Noodles itself was fresh but it is little too thick and doughy. And sauce was too salty for me. I enjoyed dumplings and scallion pan cakes over noodles.

After binging the entire season of Street Food- Asia on Netflix last night...fate rewarded me with the discovery of this great hand pulled street noodle place. The noodles were fresh and delicious....with excellent braised beef. The pork bao is amazing as well. Loved every bite

I have been going here for years and I love it! Started off with some Pork Xiao Long Bao and Steamed Shrimp Dumplings. So good! Especially the Bao, highly recommend. I got the Dragon La-Mian with Soup and my friend got the Dragon Stir Fried La-Mian. Both were delicious. I love the broth with the noodles. So good! This is one of my favorite noodle places!

Amazing service!!! Terrific food:) Lots of original rolls to choose from and a really cute bar area to hang in case you have to wait. I will definitely go back to this restaurant.

I've been having this place on my list for few years but never was able to visit them. Finally was in the area and realized they are close so we went for dinner. Staff was very polite and friendly. You sit down where you want and they bring you menu and drinks. They have few items that are vegan, and we both decided to go with stir fried noodles, Dragon for my husband and vegetable for me with added tofu. Make sure to indicate what kind of noodles you want otherwise they will get you the standard size. It was fun to watch noodles being made while we waited for our food which came out very fast. We both got diffetent type of noodles and both were delicious. Chewy and much more flavorful than cooked dry noodles. Both dishes had a nice flavor but were not spicy so I appreciated chili oil on the table. You can customize the final flavor as you want. After you're done, you get the bill at the table and pay at the counter. These were definetly the best fresh noodles we had so we will be back for sure to try more items on the menu. The only thing I wish they had is some type of icon next to items that are vegan. Makes the choice much easier.

Food was absolutely amazing! The noodles are freshly made right in front of you. Really enjoyed the fried pork dumplings and scallion pancake as well. Everything had great flavor and fresh quality taste. Food came out very quickly as well. Service was great as well. Attentive, quick, and kind. Plenty of places to sit and I love that we were able to watch the noodles get hand pulled. Will be back!

The people and the environment were lovely. Watching the noodles being stretched was such a cool experience, and they were delicious too! Jiang Nan Noodle House was recommended to me by a friend, and I am so glad I gave it a try.

Pretty tasty. We got takeout from here after our flight back home from Vegas today. It was 13 degrees in Detroit so soup sounded good. I got the beef soup, and he got the BBQ pork soup. I actually liked the pork better than mine. The noodles are excellent - they're handpulled and you can watch them pulling them there, actually. The broth was good but I like Noodle Topia's broth better, in Madison Heights. Overall I'd definitely return here, and hopefully for dine-in next time.

This place has sat on my list for quite a while. I found it in someone's else Yelp collections, and since I love Asian food, I'm always on the lookout for a good one. As the name suggests, they specialize in noodles, particularly La Mian. Fun fact, if I'm not mistaken, "La" means pull, and "Mian" is noodles in Mandarin. So La Mian means pulled noodles. You can watch the chef hand-pulled the noodles here. They would slam the dough to a flat, hard surface, knead it, stretch it, and the process is continuously repeated, and you can see the noodles come into form. From noodle soup to stir-fries, they have all sorts of noodle dishes. The noodle themselves came in five different sizes. I personally love flat noodles. They're especially good for a saucy dish as they hold the sauce better. They also had many appetizers, but I did not have enough space in my belly then. I ordered the Chili Volcano La Mian. It was less spicy than I had hoped. The noodle is too doughy. The flavor felt relatively flat. Adding some Mala would have made it better. The portion was huge, and the price was good for the food you get. The taste did not hit the spot for me, but it's still worth the try.

Stumbled across this place bc I wanted soup & noodles. Very pleased. Waitress was extremely friendly, welcoming & pleasant! Appetizers were very tasty. I ordered a seafood soup, my friend ordered a beef soup. BOTH BROTHS WERE AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! The "table" chili oil was so great too! My ONLY reason for 4 starts is because I feel like Im being told not to order anymore when the bill is brought before I request it.

Have been in multiple times and always good food and friendly service. Favorite local noodle house.

It was the first time I had been there the food was absolutely delicious we had two appetizers and shared a main course which was our mistake because they don't give you enough food for the money we got appetizer of pork dumplings I think we got six and they were very small and the pancakes there might have been 10 and then the main course we got dragon noodles and it was only big enough for one person but that was our fault we should have ordered two-full dinners. Overall I'd give it at five stars and their food is excellent the ambience needs a little work because it's just a very crowded restaurant full of tables and that's it the tables and the servers. Fried Pork Dumplings were excellent. I like how when paying at the end you just told them what you had and they rang it up, and the service was excellent.

More like a personal note for myself. Not very good taste. Very salty. The pork dish has very bad smell. Great service.

Jiang Nan is truly a gem. It's sort of a non-discript dining room, but the food and attentive service make it a must visit. Noodles are pulled to order and the balancing of flavors across their menu is astonishing. Thinly wrapped and perfectly- filled dumplings, the best scallion pancakes and sesame balls around, and noodle dishes are just the beginning. The cold marinated beef appetizers are next level. You'll look around the plain dining room and be in disbelief of the delicious food. I do, every time!

Plenty of parking, staff was friendly and food is good. This is my first time here and I am pretty satisfied.

Went for the 2nd time this week. Only regret I have is getting the Chili Volcano La Mian instead of stir fry or soup la mian. The dish was more salty than spicy. It was okay but not their best. The bao buns, dumplings, and crab ragoons were amazing. Food is always hot, fresh, and quick. Service is great. Noodles are perfection. They are handmade and you can watch through the window them being rolled out. Will be visiting again.

Based on the good reviews, I wanted to try this place out. I got the chicken lo mein dish, and it was honestly slightly above average. Not the most flavorful noodles, but addition of Sriracha made it better. I was honestly somewhat disappointed in this dish being pretty bland, but I would give this place another shot and try maybe another noodle dish. Will update review based on future dishes, if I decide to come here again!!

Who loves thick homemade noodles & lots of them? The food @ Jiang Noodle House is downright excellent. We started with the delicious pan fried pork dumpling appetizer followed by the BBQ Pork La-Mian (noodle soup with bok choy, cilantro & slices of sweet pork) & finished with the Beijing Zha Jiang Mian (noodles topped with savory ground pork & fried soy bean paste) The food is not only excellent, it's reasonably priced. Portions are big. Service is very friendly.

Hand pulled noodles?! I'm so there! You can watch the guy make the noodles in te window! Very cool! My sister and I got the cold noodles. It's a newer item on the menu. We also got the cucumber salad which was intricately all connected and cut so that it winded around. My friends got the Beef La-Mian soup. My other friend also got a soup but I don't know which one. Food was very filling! It had a good amount of spice but not too much. Took some of it open. Hope to come back!

Food doesn't have a lot of flavors, small portions for the price, and greasy. The Pork Xiao Long Bao is small and not juicy. The Pan Fried Scallion Pancakes have few scallions and taste plain. The Shredded Potato Salad had no spices, as shown in the menu's photo. It was drenched in too much vinegar. The Pork Belly Over Rice had maybe three slices of soft pork belly with a tea egg, but the entire dish was soaked in grease. I will not be eating here again.

Food was so good, I fought tears. Twice. Had Vegetable La-Mian with Soup. Decor is simple, but thoughtful & clean. Service was good. I was in at a slow time. But, man - this food is fresh as can be and made with love. Store made noodles! You can watch them being made as you eat. The chili oil on the table was fantastic. I want to eat here every day.

I'm going to give it a 3.5. I think it's good, especially given the area, but I can't eat here often cause the broth is a bit oily. The cucumber salad is good but a little sweet for my taste.

Went on a Saturday night at 7p and thought, for sure, we'd have to wait for a table. Super surprised that we walked right in, no problem. Wait staff were really helpful in selecting our dishes - and adjusting the spice level to our liking. Flavors and textures were great. Fun to watch the guys pull the noodles. Would totally come back, but we were visiting from out of town.

Very excited to try this noodle house and it did not disappoint. The scallion pancakes and pork xiao long bao are delicious shareables. I had the Szechuan la mian and it was so flavorful! It's not too spicy, either. Service was super fast and the restrooms were clean. Definitely coming back!

Jiang Nan is one of the best places for noodles in Farmington Hills. Typically we have to travel to Madison Heights to get our noodle fix, so I am thankful this is only a few minutes away. My go-to dishes are the scallion pancake, pan fried dumplings with leek, and the stir fried noodles. The noodles are made in the restaurant, and there is a large window where you can watch the chef hand pulling them. The scallion pancake and leek dumplings are always great, but the stir fried noodles could use more vegetables. Due to the increased cost of meat, there is definitely less meat in the dishes today than in previous years. The xiao long bao was a miss for me, and the dumpling was too thick and there was very little broth inside. The flavor was good, but the broth is what makes the XLB for me. I would definitely return to this location again, but would skip the XLB and ask for extra vegetables in my noodle dish.

We wanted to order pan fried scallion pancakes but they didn't have any type of pancakes. We ordered pork xiao long bao, vegetable fried la-mian, seafood fried la-mian, and Lanzhou beef la-mian. The menu says we can choose the size of the noodle but that is a lie. You're also charged .55 to add spice which is ridiculous. The xiao long boa wrap was way too thick. The soy sauce that came with it should have included ginger but it did not. This was also an appetizer but it came out at the end. There were two waitresses working and one was rude. After we got our food, we never saw our waitress again until the bill was dropped off. Our waters were never refilled.

I was craving hand pulled noodles and was so happy to discover some here! It's a Chinese spot and there was a chef in the kitchen pulling dough for noodles. I had the braised beef, spicy (C8 on the menu) and it was perfect amount of spice and flavor packed. Beautiful bowl! The waitress there was soooo nice and so attentive to all her tables. The ooooonly reason why this is a 4-star review and not 5-star is because the xiao long bao I ordered had the thickest skin and no soup broth in it... wonder if it was just a mistake in order or kitchen?

YUM!!!! Man, it's been a long time since we had authentic Asian noodles. We ordered the braised beef noodles in soup and the Szechuan noodles with added bbq pork, as well as an appetizer of the soup dumplings. If I had to be picky, I would say that the noodles in the soup were a little overdone, and the soup dumplings were not all that soupy. However, other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The ladies there were super friendly too. We finished all the food we ordered and will definitely be back!

Super bad service, The amount of noodles is very small, watery, few piece of meat, Not recommend.

Gotta love those hand pulled noodles! Part of the reason we only gave this place 4 stars was because we had such a a hard time coming here! We would call on the phone and no one would ever pick up. Was it because they were busy? Was it because they were closed. It was never clear. Just last week we tried to go on a week day and came across a sign that said they were open... yet closed? I feel like there was a miscommunication here. Otherwise? The noodles are fantastic. You can see where they pull the noodles. We ordered the C1 soup and the some stir fry. The soup was on point, but the stir fry was pretty good but didn't blow me away the same way. Still far above your average stir fry though, make no mistake. I look forward to coming back here soon, but like, I hope they're open? You never know.

We've frequented this place so much in the past few months ever since I've stumbled upon it on Yelp. Their portion sizes are great , always enough for me to pack it home. I love that they offer different types of noodle texture so I get to try different ones each visit! Tip: try some chilli oil that's on the side of your table, it's not spicy but gives some aroma and flav to your meal.

Soup Dumplings and C1 were the best!! Great spot! We don't live close but will definitely be back soon!

Very nicely decorated spot in Farmington Hills. It's hard to find fresh hand pulled noodles around. We loved all the dishes we tried. Service was very prompt and very nice. A little language barrier but we worked through it.

Best authentic chinese food Ive had since leaving china living there 15 years. My chinese wife concurred! Made a video of my visit if you are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DKb7SpApII
