World, meet Chongqing Street Food!
Our Xiăo Miàn can challenge any noodle out there when it comes to quality and flavour!
Our Noodles
Our noodle recipe is something we take immense pride in. We perfected it over numerous months of testing to achieve the perfect noodle: firm, chewy and flavourful. If you’re a noodle lover, you must try ours!
Our Meats
We’ve thoughtfully sourced quality produce that we treat with the utmost respect. Our meat is known to be succulent and full of flavour because of our unique cooking methods that begin in the early hours every day, so you can enjoy it fresh.
Our Broths
Clear and nutritious, our broth is made daily by cooking beef and pork bone for hours at a very high temperature. This purifies our broth and creates a unique, balanced flavour.
Our Spices
The ingredients we use to season and add aroma to our dishes are the best Sichuan has to offer! From our tangy pickles to our numbing pepper oil, you’ll get a range of unique flavours that are like none you’ve ever tried before.
Chóngqìng Xiăo Miàn is a popular style of noodle from the city of Chongqing, China! Before Xiăo Miàn became widely popular across China, it was widely consumed by the residents of Chongqing, often for breakfast.
Xiăo Miàn, which translates to "Little Noodles," is a popular street food, loved for its unique flavour: the numbing spice!
What started as a staple food of Chongqing is now a historic part of the local cuisine. Its popularity is even growing overseas in cities like Paris, New York, San Francisco, and Toronto.
Xiăo Miàn noodles are typically wheat noodles that can be accompanied by a variety of meats and vegetables. They are seasoned with various spices, garnishes and sauces, but most notably with Sichuan peppercorn, which has a unique numbing spice effect on the tip of your tongue!
We are proud to present this historical dish to you and authentically represent Xiăo Miàn!
Hey Noodles is a chain of casual noodle restaurants that specialize in Xiăo Miàn and originated in Chongqing, China.
In the early 2000s, a Xiăo Miàn craze spread through China like wildfire, and the chain grew to more than 200 locations!
The popularity of our food inspired us to open our first location in North America, so on May 16, 2015, we opened in Downtown Toronto's vibrant Chinatown neighbourhood. Within a few weeks, our restaurant was a hot spot among Asian millennials and local residents who wanted to try our flavourful noodles.
Since then, we have continued to grow by opening six new locations that have been as successful to the point where we get requests to open in new neighborhoods on a daily basis.
We thank all of our loyal customers and employees who continue to support us. We like to think that our brand is an ambassador of Chongqing culture in North America, and we strive to treat every customer as a valued guest who wants to learn about Chinese food and culture.
