Ten Seconds Yunnan Rice Noodles 十秒到云南过桥米线 — Restaurant in Spring Valley

Our new and probably only favorite local modern Chinese restaurant for noodle soup and appetizers!! Comfort food, casual and bomb appetizers!!l Spicy Brisket Noodle Soup, and popcorn chicken os worth trying (what we liked so far). Their spicy level is for medium spicy lovers; I, a mild spicy, barely can enjoy it. Staff speaks English and Mandarin. LEGIT when it's bunch of Asians eating there after 9pm on a weekend...Xiaoye! Noodle soups can also be ordered as takeout.

Vegas is known for pretty bad Chinese (Taiwanese, Canto, etc), Korean, Vietnamese comfort food. Tourist are use to 1 good dish, or ayce eat places vs place we can consistently dine over and over again. And local Vegas only knows only what they know. We are coming from lower standards of 626/SGV/OC taste buds, living locally, and to the point being disgruntled. But still reluctantly trying to find at least worse Chinese, Korean or Vietnamese places.

$5.99 Spicy and sour cucumber salad. Tasty. $8.99 Spicy beef tripe. Loved it. $8.99 Taiwanese style popcorn chicken. Lucky Day is our favorite restaurant popcorn chicken so far (but that's it, not much other good enough for us to spend on). This restaurant is our #2 favorite popcorn chicken joint. $15.99 Hot dry rice noodles with soy sauce and lotus root slices. Noodle soups are good for the rice noodle. But dry noodles's sauce was disappointing, but tasted better once added the cucumber appetizer sauce (sugar). I think it they added a little garlic that would make it nicer too. $17.99 Spicy beef brisket rice noodles. Beef eaten on the side. Definitely worth getting again. Modernized to add stuff like corn, ham, shenanigans..but not dairy or overall fatty/oily items. So Tawianese modernizing vs too much of westernized version of fusion.

Interested to try their added new rice dishes like $13.99 Beef Brisket with White Rice, and $13.99 Shrimp Fried Rice. $7.99 Fried Squid Tentacles. $7.99 Fried fish chops (don't know what this is but sounds good). $6.99 Spicy Pig Ear. $7.99 Tempura pawns $6.99 Scallion pancakes if it's homemade. $5.99 Steamed Chicken with chili sauce. Etc .

Looking forward to trying this place again. But from reviews, not...

Overall: 3.4/5 (take out)

We came Friday night around 10:30 PM so it was empty. When you first enter, they have a really cool & unique sign that I just had to take a picture of.

The young woman who helped us was really nice and patient. We ordered one appetizer and drink to go, but I want to come back to try their original rice noodle. They're also having a 12% off promotion right now.

Taiwanese Style Popcorn Chicken ($8.99): We were looking through the Yelp pictures and the popcorn chicken ones look so appetizing. However, what we got to go doesn't look like what they provide if you dine-in. First off, the portion was a bit small and they skimped on the basil leaves. As we were driving home, we got stuck in traffic so we decided to eat in the car. It's only been about 5-10 mins and the chicken was already no longer crispy. I think they tied the bag too tightly so there wasn't proper ventilation. Flavors were okay. I was tasting a lot of the textured batter but on the plus side, the chicken was juicy so I'd be willing to try it again in store.

Passion Fruit & Pineapple Iced Tea with Crystal Boba ($3.50): Hmm, I'm not sure if this was a mistake or a promotion but the drink was essentially half off. I didn't even realize it until I looked at my receipt later on. When we were ordering our drink, she asked what sweetness level we wanted and my husband said 100% per usual. Wow that was a mistake because their 100% level of sweetness was even too sweet for him. We could still taste all the other components of the drink though like pineapple juice. They crystal boba was the perfect texture too. When the drink was nearly done, we still had a lot of fruit bits and boba left so I put it in the fridge. The ice melted to about 1/4 fourth of the cup and I kid you not, it tasted like the night before. Now I'm curious what they use as a sweetener and how much they used. This is not to say the drink was bad. It was good and I would consider their other drinks but at like 50% sweetness.

P.S. Excuse my blurry car pictures 😅

Although my rating for this place is low due to the takeout experience, I think it has potential to be higher if I dine it so I...

This is a new experience for us. The noodle comes out with a hot soup base and you put each ingredient in and cook it yourself. We also got the fried chicken, which didn't look as good as the main yelp photo but tasted fine.

I enjoyed putting all the ingredients in myself and the soup base was delicious (tomato one). Very rich and yummy. I got the regular one, without extra meat. I'd try the beef stew one next time. Not sure if I would have been full if we didn't order the chicken as well.

Mom was impressed by how clean the bathroom was, which for a Chinese restaurant is very impressive. The space is clean and seating is also large, with each booth can comfortably seat 6.

My only gripe is the a/c. We sat down and it was end of May, so very hot. Not long after I heard the server tell the back to turn off the a/c. WHY????? We were eating the super hot soup noodle and my poor mom was sweating like crazy all over her forehead. I run very cold and I was uncomfortably hot there. You cannot just turn off the a/c in Vegas summer while serving piping hot soup. We died. I had to ask for them to turn on the a/c and they did but it was ridiculous to have turned if off to start with. Other guests also complained as well. Please don't turn off the a/c! I don't understand restaurants that try to save money on heating and cooling. Don't you want your guests to be comfortable in the hour or two they are dining with you? It's...
