Zhongzhong Noodles - Roosevelt Island

A tiny cozy noodle spot on Roosevelt island. The price was very reasonable and the portion is pretty generous. I ordered the tomato beef noodle, and I absolutely destroyed it. The soup was tangy and sweet, and the noodle was soft but chewy. In general I’d definitely recommend this place if you are looking for something comforting to eat.

Had the braised beef noodles, and the seasoning burned my lips for 2 days (not much flavor, just spice) The beef looked nothing like the photo, had this gelatinous stuff around it?? (probably a huge amount of connective tissue or fat) and had a funky smell. Never seen meat like that before.

Counter order place. Not great for large groups, but good for small groups of 2 or less. Food was really good! Soup dumplings and mapo tofu were great!

Love it!!!! I was looking for a charging spot for my phone and found this amazing noddle house! I got their tripe hotpot noodle, definitely worth of try!

Off bat my takeout order didn’t come with egg (even though egg is shown in the picture) so I had to boil my own. Soup base itself was a little watery and honestly kind of flavorless. I get I got the vegetarian option but it just feels like the broth was made without any seasoning though the tomato taste is really strong. Unfortunately, I’ve had better hot pot for less money; and that was deep in Manhattan. Also like where are the noodles? The wood ear mushrooms were pretty good but, again, I’ve had better. I also paid extra for crab meat just to not get it. I've been diligently trying to find the best hot pot in NYC and honestly, this might be the worst ive had in my search. Overall, I’d give it a 3.5/10
