Spotlight Series: Yunqueen Rice Noodles
Rice Noodle Perfection
Yunnan cuisine is the darling of Robson Street’s restaurant row. Straight from their successful restaurant group in China, Yunqueen RiceNoodles brings the fresh broth and noodles of Yunnan Province to their Vancouver location at the Landmark (1460 Robson Street).
Chicken, Pork, Beef, Seafood & Noodles
“Our signature Golden Guoqiao broth is the secret behind what makes Yunnan flavours stand out,” Crystal Ren, Manager at Yunqueen, told us. “Our chefs arrive at 7am every day, starting fresh broth for the day. They follow our authentic, in-house recipes, featuring fresh and additive-free ingredients. Our customers know that our proportions are carefully considered and that we combine vegetables, choice meat and bone cuts, with herbs for our consistent and satisfying flavours. We serve delicious and nutritious bowls and plates full of the warmth and heritage of Yunnan Province’s traditions.”
Ren continued, “Our most popular dishes feature our Signature Chicken & Pork Bone Broth and Signature Beef Broth. Our customers are served a steaming bowl with a generous selection of vegetables and protein choices. We offer shrimp, Yunnan ham, fish, squid, chicken, tenderloin, crispy pork, tofu, mushrooms, pickled vegetables, and Chinese chives. Our Shank & Beef Bone Broth combines the tender flavours of tenderloin fillet with marrow-rich shank. Our bowls are delicious and filling. Our goal is to stay true to our cuisine heritage by providing our customers with a deeply satisfying meal.”
Fresh Broth Daily — Yunnan Style
The Landmark Building on Robson has a long history in Vancouver and the retail space at street level is hopping. Yunqueen RiceNoodles prides itself in providing a warm and welcoming dining experience, whether it’s lunch between meetings in Coal Harbour, or an evening of relaxation with friends and family. The Yunqueen mascot, Tony, keeps things light and fun for the kids, and the guest loyalty program rewards members with meal discounts and merch.
It would be a mistake to overlook the star of the show: Yunqueen’s rice noodles. Yunnan Province is famous for delicate, hand-crafted noodles that provide a delicious, light, and satisfying alternative to wheat noodles. Classic Small Pot is a favourite entree, featuring a choice of house-special rice noodles with a customizable selection of protein, vegetable, and spice options. Diners are presented with a customization questionnaire when ordering Small Pot, ensuring every dish is created is perfect.

Stop in for lunch before shopping on Robson, book a working meeting over the comfort of share-plates, gather the family for a celebration dinner — Yunqueen has the options you want and an impressive commitment to quality. A helping of Chilled Chicken with bean sprouts and peanuts is unforgettable. House-made Soft Tofu Dry Mix in traditional spicy or sweet-and-sour versions are to die for and feature vegetarian options.
