A seemingly landmark restaurant here in Montreal, Lan Zhou was a great stop while I was here in the city. Chinese food is quite expensive where I am from so I was really eager to give this place a try as it has some of the best reviews in the city. We were seated almost immediately upon arrival. I noticed that the menu was quite limited as well, not very many options but the few available were so mouth watering. I didn't know what to order but eventually ordered a combo #4 which came with a choice of salad, a hard boiled egg & the order of noodles with beef. Even though it was a bit dry, I enjoyed the meal a lot. A good enough portion with a slew of different ingredients mixed into the bowl made it very flavorful & filling. I was most satisfied with my purchase & our choice to eat here.View more

I ordered the spicy beef noodle soup combo with the salty boiled egg & seaweed potatoes (it didn't taste like potatoes in a good sense) salad. Everything tasted absolutely amazing & I couldn't help drinking most of the soup, including the chilly oil. I almost regretted it after pooping oil a few times after. Almost.View more

Such good noodles! I had size 6 traditional beef noodle soup, size small, no spice, takeaway. It tasted really good & although I wouldn't say there was zero spice, it was barely anything (which was what I wanted). The size small was very substantial & the noodles themselves were really really nice.View more

We saw the line down the block to get in & knew immediately we had to try this place. 100% worth the wait & hype. I got the veggie noodle soup with the wide noodles & my husband got the traditional beef noodle soup. We also got the edamame & cucumber salads. Yum yum yum. The broths were so flavorful & the handmade noodles were excellent. The salads which were a hearty portion, were a perfect compliment, with the edamame one being my favorite. Def get in line to come to this gem of a place. Super authentic & a must when in MontrealView more

We only tried this because we saw a long line on our way to somewhere else around 9 11AM. We came here for dinner & had to wait around 30 minutes to get seated - it was around 4:30ish but the line was still so long. I ordered the beef soup with the #2 type of noodle, spicy, medium size - it was a HUGE serving so if you have a small appetite I would recommend a small or you can divide the medium with someone else who has a small appetite. Go for large if you're with two other people. It wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be. I love the soup & the I absolutely LOVED the beef. The service was fast as well. Come here when you're willing to wait. It's worth it. What I didn't appreciate though is when we had to pay, the woman was looking at us while we're doing the payment process - would be nice if we got a little privacy as it is sensitive information.View more

Service is poor & the waiters are very busy, but I appreciated the portion size of my beef noodle soup as well as the noodle texture.View more

I went to try their food with my boyfriend & my sister. By the time we got home, all of us felt awfully sick. We ordered the beef noodles, dan dan noodles, & the braised beef noodles, with edamame & the spicy marinated beef. The food was very oily & the beef was unpleasantly chewy. Also the marinated beef was too salty. The braised beef noodle soup had these big chunks of beef/fat that were hard to eat & most of it was just fat. We all ended up having headaches & felt very sick. I think some of the ingredients were not fresh. Also, the waitress stared at the machine when I wanted to pay, as if I was being forced to tip. Very unprofessional.View more

Tried the traditional beef noodles & was highly disappointed. The broth was salty yet lacked any depth of flavor. I felt like I was eating those 99 cents cup noodles that you pour hot water onto, with an overload of salt.View more

I heard about this place & had to try it. I wasn't disappointed at all. The beef soup was spectacular & the noodles were fantastic. Great prices too. If you like hand made fresh noodles this is a good spot! Next time, I will try the Dan Dan noodles.View more

Delicious beef noodles in china town. Spicy sauce is greatestView more

Parking around this area of town can be a pain but when I get a craving for Chinese noodles (about once a month), this is the place I go to when downtown. The dan-dan noodles are always delicious & the braised beef is very good too. The place feels kind of tight when packed with people & can get a little cold in winter when customers come in & out the door, but the food is consistently good. Service is so-so (water glasses don't get filled as often as they should) but there's always a waiter or waitress close by when you need them & they are friendly.View more

Beef noodles are authentic. Price is reasonable. Seating is not the best.View more
