Got the braised beef noodles, Beijing noodles with soybean, a fish fillet crepe, and a pork belly crepe. Crepes were excellent and portion sizes could satisfy a hungry person. The noodles were also good, but I regretted not getting the spicy braised beef noodles.

This is one of my favorite places to stop and get a bowl of noodles. I can't say anything about the authentic-ness since I don't have much to compare it to but the noodles are so good! It's flavorful always and it's a pretty big bowl for the price! The staff is also really nice and the place is calm which I like.

A Masterpiece of Street Food – Jianbing at Yiwanmen
As someone who’s been on a near-spiritual quest for authentic jianbing in the U.S., I can confidently say: Yiwanmen absolutely nails it.
This isn’t just a snack—it’s a symphony of textures and flavors that hits every note perfectly. The crepe is thin and crisped just right at the edges, but still tender and chewy in the center. The egg layer is laced with black sesame and green onion, bringing warmth and umami in every bite. And that crunchy baocui (crispy cracker) inside? Pure magic. It adds that satisfying snap that any true jianbing fan craves.
This is comfort food, nostalgia, and culinary craft all wrapped up in one golden, crispy, savory crepe. Protein add-ons like roast duck or pork floss all elevate this humble street food into something magical.
If you’re in NYC and even thinking about jianbing, go to Yiwanmen. This is the real deal, and it’s worth every bite.

Frankly the jian bing was disappointing. Too sweet and saucey, quite little pork floss, though the flour crepe itself was of nice texture. The roasted duck bao has good chewiness but the duck itself fell short. The beef noodle all the same - good presentation but tastes only ok.
Amazing food amazing service. Highly recommend the grounded beef rice noodle. The balance of the umami and spicy flavor is perfect! Definitely brings me back home!

Super small place with polite workers and delicious food. The honey pineapple drink was amazing, as was the Chongqing Red Oil Noodles.

The jianbing is worth the wait - crispy, sour, fluffy, light, savory, sweet and spicy. Start your food tour here because you won’t have room for much else. The crepe and huge and flavor packed. 10/10

Very good place to try the Bao/noodles. For our part, we really liked the Bao 1 and 2 - pork belly and beef (noodles to try next time)
Pleasant and friendly service Very fair price (+- 15$/ 4 Bao), don't hesitate to leave a Tip.
Possibility of eating on site in a nice little atmosphere ?
