Ox King Noodles 牛魔王肉食馆 in Victoria

So lucky to have an authentic (non westernized) Chinese place like this that serves a variety of Sichuan, Northern and Southern dishes all in one place. They use real Sichuan pepper corns and make their own dumplings. After a huge disappointment at JJ wontons it s refreshing to to know this place exists in Victoria. Recommend eating there so it s fresh, take away is a different experience.

Amazing!!!

I ate lunch here today while I was downtown for work. Had the Spicy Beef Brisket bowl and it was incredible - very, very tasty and the service was also quick.

Cozy, delicious, good price, good service, fast. Great spot for lunch.

Delicious noodles! Best I have had in a while! Friendly staff, cute little place. Highly recommend. Dietary restrictions: Lots of GF options.

Good tan tan men :) good amount of toppings and great prices compared to the rest of town! Will certainly visit again!

Its ok. taste would be 7.5/10. But damn the portions are tiny for the money we paid and thats whats extremely sad about this place.

Really good Xiao long Bao, have never had it before. braised meat crispy bun couldve used more depth, maybe added herbs and/or sauce. Good prices, nice location.

Extremely flavour packed food. Service was extremely friendly. Went for the Dan Dan noodles and soup dumplings. Definitely try the peach juice. Loved the noodles, dumplings werent my fav, but still rated very highly in the city.

The cold sesame noodles are beast! Also the dumplings were perfectly juicy. Food : 5/5

A great little noodle shop, really good Bao!

The noodles here are very authentic.

I was looking for a good place for a hotpot on a rainy day since our go to is closed, I called them ahead and made a reservation . They gave us a menu and almost everything was unavailable, there are like 20 things you can choose from and there were only 7 things available. The beef tastes like cardboard no matter how less you cook it in the broth. The fun part of the hotpot is the sauce station, they didn t have it. We paid two 3 dollar special sauce that only consisted with sesame paste and green onion. We thought maybe they didn t specialize in hotpot so we opted to order from their regular menu too, we ordered fried chicken wings that tasted like dawn dish soap. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING. We ordered pork buns that tasted like frozen boxed ones you get from costco. THEY ARE NOT CHEAP AT ALL. I don t recommend this place unless you don t have any other choice.

delicious food

Ordered and shared the hot and sour soup, chicken wings, and pork Bao, everything was so tasty! Would recommend especially on a cold night.

Quite enjoyed the Ox King Special . It was at the upper bound of my spice tolerance. I m curious what the other spices in there were, quite unique, perhaps. I came here once 4 years ago and didn t enjoy it as much. I must ve ordered the wrong dish for my palate.

The lady puts a few extra dollars on your bill, dont ever come here.

Love this place! Very close to home and the food is always very good, and served quickly. I come here all the time :) it s impossible not to. Very affordable meals with large portion sizes.

I recently dined at Ox King Noodles and was thoroughly disappointed. The service was abysmally slow, with our food arriving after a long wait, despite the restaurant being nearly empty. The noodles were overcooked and lacked any distinctive flavor, and the beef dish was tough and rubbery. The staff seemed disinterested and unhelpful, and the ambiance was uninspiring, with outdated decor and uncomfortable seating. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and I wouldn t recommend it.

Very good, enjoy very much.

Delicious food at a cute hole-in-the-wall location. The customer service is nice and the noodles are extra spicy. Would recommend!

Thank God for this Victoria gem!! Nothing has satisfied my noodle craving quite like this spot. I had the pork iao Long Bao and the Special beef noodles soup. Both were exceptional! The noodles here are so fresh and bouncy and chewey. The broth is so rich and comforting. Enjoyed my dinner with a Tsingtao. Absolutely sublime. I will be back again and again!!

Dwa shi hun hau de che! Very good food! They have dan bing! I havent had dan bing since I was in Taiwan! Be careful, its soooo good youll be back for more!

Some of the best noodles in town

We were there touring Victoria Canada, looking for real authentic Chinese noodle soup after a long day. Found this restaurant with pretty good reviews. Ordered many dishes, came out none looked the same or even similar to what the pictures showed on the menu. Tasted them, and shocked that something made this awful have such good reviews. Beef noodle soup had five thumb-sized small pieces of beef. Noodle soup was so thin, basically made out of clear water, soy sauce, vinegar and hot pepper oil. The easiest Chinese Cucumber salad dish which every single chinese person can master they made it taste so weird I don t even know how could anyone make something so easy so awful. Spent so much money and felt cheated. Not a single dish came out real Chinese . I pity those non-Asian customers because they must have never tried any real Chinese food in their lives. This restaurant gives Chinese food a bad name.

My first visit the #17 was FANTASTIC!! I definitely be back. There goes my pocketbook! Food

Recommend, it is a very good noodle shop, clean and hygienic, and the food is served quickly. The boss said that this store has been open for 10 years. Downstairs in the new apartment. Street parking 2.00/hour.

Ox King has authentic Chinese dishes! The noddles and rice here are definitely worth a try!

I loved the Huaxi beef rice noodle dish. Got it in hot and it was very good. Our server was very attentive and kind.

The taste is clean and good. With good memories from Victoria

Great food! The soup dumplings were delicious, and the beef in their ox king soup is the reason I will go back.

Small mom and pop store. Clean and quiet place. The service and food is good. Their soup base is yummy and their pricing is fair. Id go back again.

My kid loves the a lot! Most of the noodle options are spicy. Hope that they can have spicy level options.

This is the only place Ive found in Victoria with good beef noodle soup so Im glad I found it, definitely want to go back and try the other stuff there. Really nice little restaurant

Went for lunch and had a great experience! The cucumber salad is delicious as were the steamed dumplings. The cold noodles were filling. The crispy pork bun was delicious as well. Very friendly, fast service!

Staff is very rude and ignorant

Finding the foods here were lack of seasonings, meats were in very small portion and not quality to match with loaded of noodles. Service was fair but foods need to be adjusted. I ordered a bowl of szechuan noodle, 3 skewers of beef and chicken wings are 42$... not recommend this place at all

The food is amazing. The people are great. You can feel the good vibes immediately when you walk in. Every time we have visitors here in Victoria, this is the place we take them to. Clean, organized, and a great place to visit! Dietary restrictions: My daughter is celiac (allergic to wheat/gluten) and we consider this restaurant a safe place for her to eat with vegetarian and gluten free options that are very delicious!

The best Chong Chinq Noodle i have ever had. Big portion too. Food

I love the environment and the quick service here. This family owed restaurant is so sweet and kind.

Service was great and food was really yummy and hot!! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free rice noodles were chewy and delicious Food : 5/5 |

Chicken Ramen is great with gluten free noodles

Great vibe, super good noodles, cant go ox king special noodles

Really enjoyed the vegetarian noodle soup. They were refreshing and tasty! Service was excellent. The broth was really nice and you could tell they spent time creating a bold and tasty base. This is often the exception with a veggie soup. Vegetarian options: Cold sesame noodles was also an option but due to the colder weather I did not partake Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian option was delicious

My family loves the food Delicious and the staff are friendly Sure we will be back Food : 5/5

Unfortunately, I am a customer and I go to this restaurant. When I go to eat, while paying money, the waiters smile at me. Sometimes I go there to take food because I also work as a food delivery driver. When I arrive, they are not polite to me and there is no respect. I do not understand why this behavior. They have been living in Canada for several years. Why havent they learned morals from others? I made a decision that I would not go there again or even receive requests. They are not good people.

Wonderful noodle Restaurant Dietary restrictions: They had some great gluten free options Food : 5/5 |

Fine. Generic bowl of noodles. Really nothing special.

Great food always. The skewers are the must-haves. It was all good until we got the free island farm ice-cream instead of the delicious cake in the picture they promised.

Great food

If you re looking for a hole in the wall gem for solid quick eats this is good. Solid authentic spot for people who know what they want.

Nice place for family dinner!

YOU HAVE TO ORDER EXTRA BEEF ON TOP OF ANY NOODLES.

Absolutely delicious! Will be back

Authentic! Very good. Noodles were very good. I am pretty certain they were made fresh. Will definitely go again. Food

Ordered twice online. First time I waited 1.5 hours only to be told it would take an additional 1.5 hours for my food. 3 hours. Cancelled that one Next time I ordered they forgot the main dish. Food was decent but I m not ordering from here again. I paid 75 dollars for a minuscule la mount of food and had to take the difference in skip credits. Super disappointed.

Ox King is mine and my friends go to dinner spot. The staff are friendly, but the food.. out of this world. We have never been disappointed by a meal, and we are regulars. The Juicy pork Xiang Bao is my favourite snack of all time!! A must try

Very good place for eat!

Was craving for some Xiao Long Bao so came here based on Google reviews. Very very disappointed. My guess it was from store bought frozen ones. So just wait till you get to Richmond for some real Xiao Long Bao. Also ordered Szechuan Style Beef Noodles. It was very flavorful. Food

This is authentic Northern Chinese cuisine: spicy noodles, BBQ skewers, roujiamo, jianbing, liangpi, etc. the skewers are delicious, though I wish the serving was bigger. The roujiamo (meat sandwich) has good flavour but the bun is a bit small, I think you may need 2-3 to be full. The jianbing is great with a good serving size - you get the full one. The restaurant itself is very cosy and maybe reminiscent of some small restaurant shops in China. The decor and plates are very nice. There is paid street parking or you could park nearby at London Drugs and walk over. Vegetarian options: There are a few vegetarian options. Parking: Paid street parking but you could park at London Drugs for free and walk over.

The food was amazing, although the kitchen staff made some gross noise which was unpleasant!

This was such a cute little restaurant and the food was absolutely DELICIOUS! Everything we had was amazing. The server went above and beyond and she was super sweet :) happy to have found such a cozy cute place. We will definitely be back again for the skewers!

the staff was very attentive and sweet! I got the juicy beef dumplings and they were so delicious! will definitely be returning soon.

Small cozy place and the food is great!

It s great! Just it was a bit spicy for my wife but for me it was delicious. Dietary restrictions: Pay attention more in the spiciness of the dishes and give an accurate explanation on how spicy it could be for people who don t eat this kind of food. However, they ask about how much spicy the people want and sometimes they give the option to make it no spicy but they have to say more. Thank you.

Best noodles and dumplings in Victoria hands down! Great service too!

Parking: Limited parking, but we live across the street, lots of walk-ins! Food

Great food and prices and service. It was fun.

The weather was gloomy and I was cold, so I wasnt feeling well, but after searching, I found this very delicious restaurant. The warm and slightly spicy beef soup noodles were excellent and the portion was just right. The additional wontons were plentiful and delicious. This is a place I want to come again next time~ Highly recommended~~

So tasty! Best xiao long bao in Victoria!

Had the Chongping dry noodles with beef brisket and some bar-b-q skewers Great food, ate it all up. Definitely would get food here again Food : 5/5

Food is OK. Service is friendly and explains well the ingredients of the dishes. I really liked the beef soup

Great service! Love the special beef noodle soup! Highly recommend!

Skimpy on the meat in the brisket noodle bowl ,the beef skewers were tiny and tough Pork buns were good. To expensive for what you get Food : 1/5

The food was beyond amazing!! The Japanese Ramen was so warm and delicious. The service was great too!! Food : 5/5

Ordered: beef sandwich & house special ox beef noodles Beef sandwich lacked a bit of flavour, and the sandwich itself was dry. The noodles were tasty and had a good amount of kick to it. Get less spicy if you are not able to take spice!

tasty

Delicious noodle soup. I really enjoyed the beef rice noodle soup. Easy to find parking in the neighborhood around lunch time too.

It was a great experience and the food was amazing.

Very delicious food! And friendly staff. Highly recommend crispy bun with pork and Bing with beef!

I lived in northern China for a few years and got a taste for skewers and noodles. This is, by far, the best Chinese restaurant in Victoria that I have found. Kid-friendliness: My kid loves coming here and they treat him with kindness and warmth.

We came here right from the Ferry and were welcomed with big smiles and amazing smells. Ordered 4 takeaway ramens. Cute kid who loves everything on the menu.

So tasty, food is great-order the long doughnut with your soup. It is totally worth it.

Very good food and a very nice family ! Highly suggested . Vegetarian options: A great veggie noodle soup Food : 5/5 |

Really good food and great service as always!

Great spot for authentic, spicy, flavourful, affordable soup! I will definitely be back.

Ox king soup, Bao and pork buns were all excellent!

It s been a little over a week since I came to Victoria . I stopped by because I really wanted to eat spicy, hot soup. It was so delicious Knowing that I was Korean, they asked me if I wanted to add mala soup, so it felt like I was really eating malatang. I think Ill come back again

It is a cozy place. Food are simple but really authentic, good. Our favourate place in Victoria.

Always the best noodles in all of vancouver island and friendly service! Highly recommend.

Came here at 3pm in the afternoon but it s not open when google said it s open 12-9 :(

I love this place! Here you can find lots of neat options, but bing is my favourite dish (also vegetarian). Their cold noodles is also my ultimate comfort food. Lots of fun drinks to choose from! Vegetarian options: A few options, but they are solid and I keep coming back for them.

High quality, fresh, tasty, chewy noodles! Well priced, friendly, fast service! Clean setting and easy to order menu.

wow! best chinese food ive tried so far in victoria!

Best restaurant in Victoria!

Pretty good quick service... had better i guess

Three of us shared some skewers, steamed pork dumplings &

We ordered different things. My son loved the miso ramen and xia long BAO. I had dandan noodles and its so good!! It seems like a well family run restaurant. Highly recommend if youre looking for authentic Chinese noodle dishes. Kid-friendliness: We asked for the bamboo shoots and sprouts on the side for the kids ramen and they were happy to do it

The food was amazing, tasted great. The service was impeccable and definitely worth visiting. The waitress and staff members were all super understanding and nice. The environment there was also calm and pretty quiet, so it was an enjoyable experience altogether. I would recommend, 5/5.

Nice chewy noodle satisfies my Chinese stomach!

Best noods in town hands down

Delicious and quick! We had xiao long bao and Szechuan beef noodles.

Super good noddles and crispy pork bun.

Found my new favorite restaurant. Best Chinese resto for me.

Wonderful authentic Chinese homemade noodles, fresh ingredients, welcoming owners. Would recommend!

Very nice and VERY tasty!

We had the entire appy section and everything was delicious. Definitely try the chili oil as it doesnt disappoint. Well be back for sure!

It was a quick and comfortable meal. Restaurant is tidy and service is good. The food portion is relatively small though.

Great Chinese restaurant in the town. Tasty and modern style environment. Recommend!

We ordered special beef noodle soup and dry noodles. Both were tasty. Service was very friendly. Highly recommend!!

It is highly recommended. The price is affordable and the portions are good. Mainly because there are many dishes and the serving speed is not slow. The beef noodles are super spicy and full of flavor. The kebabs also taste good. Recommended

Vegetarian options: Good Food

I had the Dan Dan noodles and BBQ chicken wings for lunch. The noodles were very taste and freshly made. The wings were spicy and juicy. Overall, good value food that is tasty and healthy.

The service was great and the taste was great, with lots of different flavors to choose from. Well worth trying

Huaxi beef rice noodles soup is good

We went to this restaurant 5 years ago for the first time and we really love it. Then we go here every time when we travel to Victoria. Recommend

Best noodles in Victoria, This is my go to restaurant anytime I m feeling under the weather or need a filling meal. :)

Its really a shame that you guys dont have spicy pot anymore. That was the only reason I used to go! So so sad.

What a great gem for chinese noodles and other dishes in Victoria. The food is great with big portions, super flavourful and not heavy. Definitely recommend!

It was so good we forgot to take pictures before lol. LOVED the dry noodles. The service was exceptional. Walking out happy <3

The Chongqing beef brisket noodles were super yummy. I will definitely be returning!

Had # 20. Not too spicy. Lamb skewer is dope though. I already ate half of them before taking a photo. Value 4.5/5 Taste 4.7/5 Atmosphere 4.5/5 Cleanliness 4.7/5

delicious food but my portion of #36 was too small

Kid-friendliness: Food

Best Dan Dan noodles in Canada! And the spicy beef brisket soup was also to die for!!

We love this restaurant just a small place that has great soups and dumplings!

I once tasted the famous Roujiamo in Xian, China. It has the appearance of a tigers back with an iron ring and a chrysanthemum heart. It is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It can fully absorb the meat juice inside and is served to the table with hot air. It is carefully stuffed with more than 30 kinds of seasonings. The meat is stewed in aged marinade. One bite fills your mouth with the aroma of meat. I never thought I would be lucky enough to encounter it again in Weicun, thousands of miles away.

17 dollars for some veggies, noodles and 4 slices of tiny fish is crazy Doesnt get worse than this Food : 1/5

Food was served in very little amounts with outrageous prices, crying baby, waited for 25 minutes for my food to get served. Very poor experience, what a let down.

The noodles are pretty good! We ordered both spicy and non-spicy beef noodles. They come with a assortment of vegetables and garnishes that combine perfectly with the noodles. The atmosphere is awesome as well with the friendly waiters and quick service. Definitely recommend!

Great restaurant with yummy beef noodle soup, Lamb skewers tastes good! Highly recommend!

Really enjoyed my visit to Ox King. These are authentic Chinese Noodles owned by local Chinese! A big menu . Its tucked away but dont miss it :)) I ordered their signaturr Ox King Noodles & Chinese Fried Breadsticks. both met my expectations :D

yummy food and good service. The rice noodle is the best! Love it!

Fast food, barely any flavor, just noodle and broth. Too bad, great location

Authentic Chinese food! Hidden Jam restaurant!! Must try

this place was amazing! probabaly the best meal i ve eaten in victoria- the dan dan was delicious and all the staff are super nice! prices are so good, we will definitely be back:)

The food here was excellent and the service was fast and friendly. This was my first trip to Victoria and I absolutely do not regret trying this noodle shop. My wife and I travelled China earlier this year and the food here certainly rivalled the food we had there so I give it 5 stars for authenticity. I would recommend this to anyone local or just visiting town as a must-try location.

Great restaurant in a nice area!

One of the worst place to visit. They don t know how to manage the time. Waited 15 minutes for the pre order. Worst experience.

#35 made my girlfriend s mouth tingle in the most sensational way.

Enjoyed the chicken ramen at a good price

best dan dan noodles in all of victoria

Very tasty noodle soup. Great service. Thanks!

It was delicious, it had the perfect level of spice and the atmosphere was great! The hot pot was especially delicious and was so much fun to eat.

Great vegetarian soup - full flavour and lots to eat Vegetarian options: A couple options - tasty! Food : 5/5 |

This is hands down the best Chinese food we have had on Vancouver Island. We ordered the dan dan, Jang bing, xiao long boa and the brisket soup. Would order all of them again. We found Ox by searching for some dan dan noodles but will come back to try everything on the menu. 6 stars.

The best hand-made noodles, soups and long bao every single time = consistent deliciousness.

Good service with nice food.

The szechuan spicy and tom yum hot pot was delicious and lots of fun to share! Great service!

I m a big guy, I got the ox king soup with a side of rice and buns to share. It was the perfect amount of food and it was delicious.

Dan dan noodles are exceptional. The Ox King special soup is so good. Im really happy we walked up here for lunch

This place is amazing! Great variety, fair prices and very hard working people. The community is lucky to have this local gem. Vegetarian options: Liang Pi is glorious!

Friendly staff and amazing food!

Good food, open on thanksgiving. The xiao long bao were very good! The Chinese donuts were a little hard though.

Lovely experience can t believe I haven t been sooner. Food was quick, service was friendly. Portions were amazing for the the price I would definitely recommend!

Never go again

#1 Restaurant in Vic!

Really great noodles and dumplings! We tried noddles with soup and no soup both were amazing. And every time I go home after eating this it makes me keep thinking about it haha

Great food ambiance!!! Will come back for sure !!!

Best spicy beef noodle in Victoria. Get his xi this time, the only difference with special I noticed is the added peanuts

everything I ve had here has been super delicious!! all of the staff is very friendly and attentive as well. highly recommend!!

Very authentic Chinese noodles. Love the spices and flavours. So well done! This is comfort food for sure. I routinely get Dan dan Mein and lamb skewers. So good! I ve had take out, delivery, and dine in. All great experiences. In photo is their original beef house special. Very tasty! Can t go wrong. Dietary restrictions: No problems for dairy free

This place is a hidden gem The only Chinese restaurant we finally loved, spicy and flavorful Food

Yum! I had to Google where to get good soup dumplings in Victoria and this place was highly recommended. Can t wait to go back.

Got the Hot Pot with 2 yummy broths and it was delightful! The beef was high quality but we werent too fond of the calamari balls!

One of THE BEST place for Chinese noodle soups, the broth is so satisfying! Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to get to the door Food : 5/5 |

Vegetarian options: Limited, but tasty Wheelchair accessibility: Good Food : 4/5 |

I went there multiple times. Love the restaurant. Great services and food!

We did the hotpot menu and it was very delicious. The mushroom broth was very rich, and the spicy sichuan broth wasn t too spicy. The lamb for the hotpot and skewers was very tasty! Food

Good food, nice atmosphere and great company! I ll be back again :) Vegetarian options: Good, flavorful! Would have liked more options though Recommended dishes Pork Ramen, Soup, Beef Noodles

Excellent food and fast service. A little gem in Victoria. Come for the noodle soup!

Great food, Great price

Amazing noodles!! Definitely will be back for more.

Excellent noodle soup!

Great noodles ! Will come back

Best noods in town ;)

Their hot pot is delicious !

This place is such a hidden gem - by far my favourite place in Victoria to get Chinese food. I discovered this place over COVID and have always been fond of their food, but I would highly suggest eating in if you can for the wonderful and quick service as well. You really cant go wrong with anything on the menu here - my personal faves are the dry wontons and Chongqing noodles! :)

Their noodle soup and hot pot are so delicious ! Not as usual as other chinese restaurants where lots of strong fragrance spices are used in their cooking. Love their food !

I haven t eaten in a few years, so I just ordered takeout. The quality has not changed, the taste is still the same. Should it be sour or not, should it be spicy or not. Stop making new dishes, can you just make a few things that should be made well?

Very flavorful soup which was perfect for the rainy weather.

Very good food! A bit spicy but delicious!

We started with the xiao long bao, which was delicious! the broths and soups were all delicious, and the noodles were perfect. Thank you Ox King!

Very delicious

Best restaurant in Victoria. 10/10. Always friendly staff and serving us well!! Wo xi huan ox king Ox king number 1. Food : 5/5

The hotpot s amazing, probably coming for a second time

Hotpot was delicious

Me and the boys went here after our exams and DEVOURED the hotpot here

Awesome Noodles. I m a regular. Cravings come up at least once a month.
