ABOUT US
All monkeys are welcome!
Monkey King Noodle Co. brings the taste of legitimate Northern Chinese street food, as treasured by our own experiences eating in the night markets of China and Taiwan.
Hand-Pulled Noodles
Back when in the old days in Taiwan, noodle makers were considered blue-collar workers. It was a family tradition to pass down the trade from father to son, son to grandson. But this back-breaking work wasn’t an enviable job.
Now, in today’s age of fancy technology, noodle makers are hard to find, especially when a machine can easily churn out chewy strands faster than humanly possible. That’s why we have decided to do everything old school.
The Monkey King, himself
Andrew Chen, one of the owners and chief noodle maker, makes everything from scratch. He’s become a semi-superstar for his craft.
Chen’s restaurants focus on street food — the dishes he lusted for after a night of drinking in Taipei...and so, the "hipster Chinese food" cult begin in a small stand in Deep Ellum to the now 3 locations and counting.

In these difficult times, it's good to know that one can get all the experience of an upscale airport food court without having to travel.

This spot is still new but definitely worth checking out. They offer plenty to pick from with new spots joining throughout the rest of the year. The inside is nice and cool with a modern feel...
