Reviewers describe Nouilles de Lan Zhou as a place with fresh hand-pulled noodles in several thicknesses, rich broths, and standout dishes like beef noodle soup and a notably spicy cucumber side; portions are generous, and bowls feel hearty, with the weekend soup and the vegetarian combo getting particular praise. One note mentions sadness about a closing, while others highlight that a newer location holds up to the original, with similar quality and better flow. The experience at different locations varies, with quick, attentive service and good value reported by many, but long waits at the Chinatown branch and some limited staff interaction noted by others. Accessibility for mobility-impaired guests is mentioned as lacking in some reviews. Diners should be mindful that chili oil can contain peanuts. While a few dishes are described as only okay, many emphasize the noodles' chew and the broth's depth and consider the place worth a visit or even a repeat stop.View restaurant profile

Chez Nouilles draws mixed but largely positive feedback, with many noting a welcoming atmosphere, friendly service, generous portions, and a strong chili oil that enhances the thick noodles and aromatic broth. Noodles are often described as wonderful and the beef soup as excellent, and several reviews say they would recommend it and would return, highlighting good value and generous portions. However, some diners find the noodles vary greatly in thickness, the soup lacking depth of flavor, and the beef not very flavorful, and a few suggest that other places offer a better version of this noodle style. Overall the experience is favorable, combining warmth and solid dishes with room for improvement in flavor balance.View restaurant profile
