Primary Taste Yunan Noodle

An OK noodle place that offers something different from your regular noodle restaurants. The overall experience could be better though.
Pros:
A different take on noodles
Cons:
Not much vareity
Tables are too small for what they offer
As many have said before, this place replaced a Korean restaurant from before. They did not change much as the seating is pretty much the same. When we came in, we told them were 2 adults and a baby. They would not give us the bigger table and instead gave us the tiny table normally for 2 people and put a chair at the side.
This place mainly does one thing and one thing only. They offer 5 or 6 side dished but their whole menu consist of 10 or so items. They have noodles with different broths that come with either pork or meat balls. The different take part come in that they give you a bowl of broth and a bowl of noodles that come with serveral side dishes that you add yourself. We ordered two of the and a spicy chicken side dish.
Here’s the problem with the smaller tables they have. The tray and the bowls everything comes with take up a lot of room. Having two orders and side dish made it virtually impossible to have enough space. When your sitting at the bigger tables, it’s no problem but when you’re at these smaller ones, you spend the entire meal trying not to knock anything over. It was a little frustrating not to mention trying to feed a baby at the same time. The food itself was fine but it was completely overshadowed by the high wire act we were trying to do while eating.
Talking about food alone, this not a bad place. It’s the other parts of dining experience that will make you look elsewhere,

Terrible service. This is not my first time eating here. I know their food was served on a not equal level quality every time. But normally it doesn’t test bad. This time they bring me a really salty spicy soup. And when I told them and asked for a little bit more original soup, they told me that they cannot do it. I was told to buy another meal since they do not sell soup alone. Or they can add water in my soup. And during the lady from the cash talk to me, she is keep «making «my meal with a bowl of hot water which is total disgusting for me. I just end up with let them take it away and paid for it since they didn’t feel like something wrong. They just let me seeing my friends eating on Christmas Eve. Never gonna be there again.

My friend and I decided to eat here on a complete whim (the restaurant used to be the location of a Korean restaurant my family and I used to love, but they relocated). This place is similar to hot pot and ramen in prices — when they give you your dish, you get a bowl of hot steamy broth, soup ingredients and raw meats (to be cooked in your soup), and noodles on the side which you add gradually to your soup. The noodles have the right consistency of chewiness without being too hard and the broth was very flavourful. I would try this place again!

Came again tonight. First time in a couple of months. Still delicious. Most customers are Mandarin speaking. Had the tomato broth soup, sans fishballs. Really good soup base. Two slices of raw hotpot pork were delicious and tender even after going into the hot soup for more than fifteen minutes. Noodles are still a really good, slightly chewy texture. Steamed chicken with chili oil is also really good. Slightly salty, but highly addictive. The servers remind you to put the hotpot pork into the soup first, to ensure it cooks. Still a perfect meal for a cold day or when you feel like you’re coming down with a cold.

Noodles are nice and chewy, love how you can customize the ingredients you’d like to add to the soup. The soup base is a bit bland and over compensated with salt though. Price is reasonable.

The perfect place for warming up on those cold winter nights.
As their name implies, they serve Yunnan noodles… with a twist. They serve you a pot of boiling (really hot!) soup separate from stringy noodles (well made!) and a bunch of veggies (lettuce, corn, black fungus, etc.) and meat (raw sliced beef, ham, chicken wing). The main thing you end up picking is your soup base. My favourite is the «primary taste tomato sauce rice noodles.» The soup is delicious and I don’t get particularly thirsty afterwards (no more than usual) even though I drink most of the soup. This makes me think that there can’t be TOO much MSG! The décor is nice and the waitstaff are average.
Overall, I recommend this place if you’re craving noodles and a good soup — especially on those cold winter evenings. I will continue to come back.

Worst service ever. We ordered the regular Yunnan special rice noodle and the coconut curry rice noodle special. First off the soup was nothing to write home about. It was bland, oily and inconsistent. The food came at almost 20 minutes apart between the two orders and 10 minutes in we had already gave them a friendly reminder that we had not been given the second set of noodles. The price was acceptable for the area, being $ 8-​$ 10 for a single bowl of noodles. However, the service needs a lot of work.

I like this place. I like their concept of bringing small sides and having you add it yourself. I found their sides to be really flavourful and delicious — especially the pig ears and the pork bones. The noodles are chewy and have a nice texture and the broth has a nice flavour as well. Only downside is that their menu is really small and they don’t offer much of anything else.
Service is typical of a Chinese restaurant, I’d come here again for the food.

Primary Taste is a new Yunan Noodle House that replaces the old Korean restaurant in the plaza. The restaurant itself is a narrow restaurant located right next to the Chinese BBQ joint. The menu is fairly small and offers up a variety of dishes, with the most popular being their Yunan noodle soup. It is very similar to Cross Bridge Noodle, with its unique blend of ingredients.
The Yunan Noodle soup has a variety of ingredients to be placed into the boiling stone pot of broth that comes to you piping hot. The clear broth comes with a side of noodles and a bevy of other items which includes some preserved veggies, chicken wing, ham, etc. The important thing is the noodle and I thought the broth lacked any real flavor. The noodles were good, but they were about the only thing.
Service was slacking and though we were first to come in, we watched several other tables get served first. Not sure if it was because they ordered something else? Seemed like everyone got their soup before we did. The prices were pretty good though and despite the rating, I may come back. Cross Bridge is better.
