Gungun Rice Noodle

What is Gungun Rice Noodle? Situated at 565 Yonge Street just north of Wellesley Station, Gungun Rice Noodle is a focused noodle shop created by Dan and Vanessa Li following their successful pandemic pop-up. The cheerful, minimalist dining room features light wood tables, modern lantern fixtures, and a street-facing window counter looking out onto Yonge.

Gungun Rice Noodle Menu & What to Order The kitchen specializes in slippery Hunan-inspired rice noodles ladled into piping broths with quail eggs, tofu puffs, kelp, and bok choy. Order the Crispy Pork Spicy Pickle Rice Noodle for a sharp hit of sour heat, or the Crispy Pork Tomato Rice Noodle for a rich, tangy broth balanced with fried soybean rolls. For non-soup cravings, the caramelized braised pork belly rice and skewered grilled buckwheat noodles are standout additions.

Know Before You Go The room operates strictly on a walk-in basis, and service is rapid enough that turnover is swift even during peak weekday lunch rushes. It sits less than a two-minute walk from Wellesley subway station on Line 1, with paid street parking available on adjacent side streets. Doors are open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
