Ji Bei Chuan Noodles 季北川 BK 86

This is one of my favorite fast-casual eateries on 86th st! I’ve dined here about 4 or 5 times now and the food is always great. We love the cooling cucumber salad which contrasts nicely against the HOT (and I mean HOT!) bowls of steaming silky rice noodles served in a stoneware style bowl which helps retain the optimum serving temperature. The ingredients are fresh and the soup broths are delicious. The original bone broth is so flavorful and comforting but they also have a range of different broths for when you want something spicy. In addition to their main menu which is already good value, they offer 3 options of dine-in only set menus which get you an appetiser, a main course and a drink for no more than $19.95! The service is always friendly and the food comes out lightening fast. I

Had the soup thai golden fatty beef and bestie had the tomato soup with beef. Pipping hot broth on a rotatable stand and friendly service with a single bathroom. Sweet corn in soup and one quail egg, wood ear mushrooms and big batch of lettuce and some enoki mushroom. Lots of noodle and big portions but the thai style golden soup was gingery but not spicy.

Pretty good and flavorful noodle spot. There’s multiple specials they offer here. You can get a stamp card and get a free bowl for every 10th. You can load up a prepaid card for bonus credits. We did $300 and got $50 bonus. There’s also 2 different special menu options that offer a bowl of noodles, small appetizer, and a drink for $17.95 option. All in all, they try really hard to promote their business and find value for their customers which is a major plus. I ordered the beef tomato soup base, which came out piping hot! So be careful to not burn your tongue/ mouth. The place itself feels super well organized and clean, albeit not that big, so expect a long wait during dinner rush hours. Friendly staff is also a plus here!

Love their Sauerkraut version and Fish Rice Noodles and also Tom Yum Noodle soup. The soup base is very flavorful and great mix of ingredients combination. This is one of our go to spots on 86th Street.

The restaurant is located in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn. They prepare Chinese cuisine. They have tables and servers for dining in. Various noodle soups, cold dishes, appetizers and beverages are available. They have additional locations in Chinatown in Manhattan and Flushing, Queens. I ordered the dumplings in spicy oil and crispy coconut lava balls as appetizers. The seafood tom yum soup with rice noodles had a nice variety of seafood. The silken tofu with fish slices was a smooth and light soup with rice noodles. The food was well-prepared and packaged well in an insulated reusable bag. Friendly and helpful staff.
