Yunnan Crossing Bridge Noodle

The concept of the noodle soups are very unique in how they just give you a boiling stone pot and other toppings like beef, surf clam, various types of veggies, corn, and mushroom, and you can add it to your liking. The stone pot does cool down pretty quickly so you should definitely add the meats first but I like the variety of the toppings and how it is very customizable. You can also get the broth spicy, like I did, and add chili oil for more of a kick. The noodles are slightly thin and chewy, and the portion is big. What makes this dish even more special is after a friend told me about the Chinese folktale that explains the origins of the Yunnan crossing noodle soup. It was supposedly created by a wife of a scholar who began to prepare the soup and ingredients separately and crossed a bridge every day to bring it to her husband (who was so engrossed in his studies that his food would get cold) so he could eat his noodles fresh and hot. This tale made me appreciate the noodle soup even more They have lots of appetizers too and I especially liked the fried salt and pepper chicken! The Mala chicken was also good but I wished it would have been fried and a bit more spicy!

I have been meaning to try this restaurant for awhile now and finally went to try it for the first time with my parents last night. We ordered the Honey Walnut Shrimp and Salt & Pepper Chicken for our appetizers and both were delicious! I especially loved the chicken, it was so juicy and perfectly cooked/seasoned. I ordered the Classic Crossing Bridge Noodle Soup and it was really good. Similar to hot pot in the sense that you cook the meat and seafood in the hot broth first and then add the veggies and noodles after. It was simple and a different experience. I would come back again. I'd like to try their other noodle dishes like their ramen or udon! Service was quick.

Today we stopped in for lunch. I got the Yunan crossing bridge noodles for $22. It came with a bowl of hot broth and 13 toppings. If there are 1-2 toppings (like squid or quail eggs for example that you don't like) you can switch them for something else. You also get a big bowl of noodles to dump in your bowl. There are instructions at the table that say which items you should cook first (like the beef). One thing I wish tasted better was the broth - it could have been more flavorful. The ambiance was very nice and professional and they had tons of Asian artifacts around that you could look at. I'd love to come again and get ramen or another bowl dish. This is a unique place on bethel!

We had the best time here this evening! The food was incredible. I am so surprised it took so long to try this restaurant. We really love the Asian food scene here in Columbus, and I was surprised that I had not tried this noodle place before. Those selection of noodles is a great and I think some of the soups are very unique. We got a variety of noodles. We got the spicy miso Ramen, the classic soup, and the Yaki Udon. we also got a salt and pepper fried chicken appetizer to share. Everything came out hot and fresh. The soups were absolutely incredible. The noodles seemed fresh and were delicious. I thought the portions were really as well.We will definitely be coming back here! I think more people need to know about this place.

Haven't been back for awhile and still love the experience here. I got my favorite Tomato Flavored Soup Rice Noodle. It comes with fatty beef as the protein. And I highly recommend to add on the pork chop as well. They are deep fried and marinated into the special sauce. I also got the Teriyaki Cutter Fish as well. It is slight fried and drizzled with the teriyaki sauce. Love it.

Serving a mix of Chinese and Japanese dishes, Yunnan is known for their make your own noodles that can be catered to all tastes. I ordered the mala intestines and it was deliciously flavorful with that kick of mala.

HELLO DELICIOUS NOODLE SOUP!Ok so a few weeks back, when we checked out Mjomii's soft opening nearby, we saw Yun Nan Crossing Bridge Noodle Soup and immediately got it in our radar to check out. Yesterday eas the day!We came at a super weird pre-dinner time and we were the only people in the resto. It was fine by us but note that there was no ambient sounds...no music, tv...it was very quiet which is actually nice but just be aware of it. The young woman who was our server was so nice. We ordered waters to drink and they came without ice. Again, no biggie but different. Mr. ordered mala spicy pork chop noodle soup and I ordered spicy beef noodle soup. All of the soups have a different broth base with a protein you choose and a whole tray of little bits and bobs to add to your soup. We didn't know what a lot of them were but everything was so delicious we didn't care!The soup is HOT. Like almost too hot to eat fast though we both tried The spice level was great on both but two things I especially loved were the chicken bits we got on the tray and the mala broth. I think the depth of flavor was a bit greater in the mala broth than my spicy beef broth but I could t fault either -- they are that good! Everything was hot and fresh. The beef chunks I got were very fatty but I was sort of into it. The fatty bits just added that much more flavor on top of the nutmeg spice it had. I seriously can't wait to work my way through the menu!! Absolutely coming back! If you're a fan of noodle soups or authentic Chinese and/or ethnic food, this is a must-try place!

Authentic Chinese noodles shop the crossing bridge noodles come out with a hot stone bowl of boiling broth and you add the meat and side dishes with the noodles

the mala noodle soup is so good, love the noodles and the toppings. One of my favorite comfort bowl of noodles in the city.

The food was amazing, it reminded me of my time in Japan.The ramen was mouth- watering delicious. The broth was very rich and flavorful. Service was a bit slow, but not blaming the waitress as she was the only one serving the whole room. The only thing I did not enjoy was the tea.
