I've walked by this place numerous times and the place is always busy, which is a good sign. The menu comes in the form of a.qr code so keep your phone handy. The decor is a bit drab and i could smell the cleaner they use to clean the tables so that took away from the atmosphere. I ordered the ribeye noodle bowl. It came super quick. The noodles were perfect temp but the meat itself was not all the way hot like the noodles. There was a decent amoit of grissle on the meat as well so it was not east to split the pieces up into smaller chunks. The wait staff never came to check on me or to see how i was throughtout the meal and while that was okay, it did feel a.little.off to me.

Absolutely fast service- great place to eat if in a rush. Noods: 5/5 I like that they separate the meat from the base soup with noodles. Noodles are like bun Bo hue as someone already mentioned. Broth is flavorful and sweet; the base broth was same for both orders- spicy beef and braised beef. We were able to adjust spiciness based on how much of the meat and oil we poured into the soup bowl. The braised beef was tender. Good proportions also, I took leftovers to go. Appetizer: 4/5 Fried fish is crispy. Would have loved some salt and pepper with it though. The steamed veggies: plain cabbage. Could do with salt. Service: 5/5 the staff were sweet and could speak English. They gave us plenty of to-go containers. Payment is done up at the counter. Ambience: Clean and modern decor. Not many people in the afternoon.

My impression of hunanese mifen is that, no matter what place you visit, its going to be super spicy. However, Hunan Mifen has a lot of options and provides the soup base / braised meat / spicy sauce separately, so you can make adjustments as needed for your meal. For the non-spicy option, the Tomato based beef soup is my favorite. It is super filling, with generous portions of meat. The standard hunan mifen (spicy) is also quite good. If you're not sure just ask what to order. Also, you'll want to try the popcorn chicken, which can be really good, or average. Last but not least, they are currently having a seasonal item that has a stinky tofu smell, so you'll probably "experience" it the first few minutes, but they have strong fans, so it'll just go away eventually.

Fast service good food. Pork and bamboo noodle soup: 4/5 the Mifen on Lawrence makes this soup better but their noodles are still very good. Picked veggies and braised pork noodle soup: 4/5 pork was flavorful and tender. I really enjoyed the picked veggies and soup. Intestines noodle soup: hubby was sweating buckets while eating this

I've been to their other Sunnyvale location, so I knew what to expect. This location is pretty much the same so I am glad they offer 2 locations! Upon arriving, I ordered their super spicy noodle soup with beef innards via the QR code. I usually prefer just beef chunks with the noodles for easy eating, but they don't offer that with the super spicy flavor which I like. The other option is beef on bones which would be even harder to eat. I do love the flavor! Now that I know what to expect, I just dumped the full dish into the soup because I like the spiciness. Service was good, food was served quickly and don't really need much else. Good ambiance too, place is bright and clean. Will definitely come back when I have spicy noodle cravings again!

Tried this place twice, the first time I've had it, I tried the spicy beef with bone. I felt like it's more difficult to eat and it can get messy. The second time, I tried the spicy intestine noodle soup. I prefer this one more as it's a lot easier to eat. The chili oil can get spicy! I like the texture of the noodles, but the meat ratio is quite small here. Tried the fried fish and also fried pork appetizers, both are decent! Not bad for a quick lunch! There's outdoors seating, good if you have a dog around lol.

Love the spicy , hot , Hunan flavors! Really can't get enough of the dried noodles w/ crayfish! I order broth on the side because it's I love how flavorful and clear it is. It's helps keep the spicy flavors in tongue manageable. Special Rice Noodle w/ Beef Bone is super spicy with kick! Service efficient and helpful when you call them over to help you place order on their iPad or your device. The inside is bustling and enough tables . We went to the Sunnyvale location @ Lakewood Village and parking is no issue. Good turnover so no waiting to be seated. It has a good energy

I came here twice and didn't have to wait too long both times. I feel like the employees here kind of speak to you like they are your aunt- I feel like they make sure they have what you need, which is really nice. There isn't a whole lot of seating inside, but they do have a couple tables outside. It doesn't look as modern, but comfortable enough. The food is super good. The combo is such a good idea, especially if you get a spicy rice noodle dish. When you feel like it gets too spicy, you can eat some of the cold green bean soup to cool off. You can also pick what appetizer you want. We got the popcorn chicken, which was just so satisfying. The rice noodles themselves were pretty good, the flavor was strong and satisfying. If you order a spicy one, the spice and meat comes in a separate bowl so you can adjust how much spice you want to add. I'm not a huge fan of rice noodles, but I would come back here for the combo!
