Overall, reviews praise Nouilles de Lan Zhou for fresh hand pulled noodles and flavorful broths, the show of noodles being made at the front, and generous portions at a fair price, with many finding the line moving quickly and the atmosphere lively in Chinatown; some diners report rude or pushy service and a tipping expectation, occasional miscommunications about the bill, and a few dishes that lack vegetables or spice, but the noodles and broths are consistently described as delicious and comforting, making it a reliable go to for noodle lovers, especially for Dan Dan and beef Lanzhou noodles.
Je comprends pas le hype à l'entoure de ce restaurant.
C'est de loin la soupe avec le bouillon le plus triste que j'ai mangé, sans aucune saveur.
& la chaleur est épouvantable à l'intérieur en plein mois de mai, ça doit être beau en pleine canicule.
🍜 Portions suuper big! Plenty to fill your tummy even in small size.
🥢 Food was good :) Wish I could've finished my bowl (took the rest home & had it for breakfast)
💁?♀? Staff were helpful, usual service
🪑 Seats a bit tight with limited space

C'était très intéressant de voir les cuisiniers faire les pâtes. La soupe avait un bouillon fade mais les nouilles Dan Dan étaient délicieuses! C'était une belle expérience!
Excellent & très copieux. Le bouillon n'est pas trop fort, mais parfumé ! Les nouilles sont excellentes. Service un peu expéditif.
Pensez à venir avant midi
Horrible service, food was not bad. The servers looked pissed to serve us, & as I paid she looked at the amount of tip I gave & forced me to give more. Will not go back to this location

Popular amongst non-Chinese diners over the years. If you know how to make beef noodles at home or have travelled to China for the authentic Lanzhou beef noodle soup, you will be disappointed with the flavor vs price.
The noodles were good, I think it could use a bit more depth & spice. The portions are VERY generous, super worth the price. I got a medium thinking it would be a regular sized bowl, but this bowl was larger than my face & I had to take like half of it home with me. I would order a small if you eat a normal portion size & are not a big eater. Staff were a bit unfriendly but that's not really unexpected of a chinese restaurant.
Everything was just perfect. The warm ambiance & diverse menu were so impressive. Every dish was cooked to perfection. The staff were very attentive & provided great service. A special place that I'll be telling everyone about! It was world-class.
