Nouilles de Lan Zhou est un endroit extrêmement populaire où les files dehors et un espace intérieur restreint font partie de l ambiance ; malgré cela, l expérience vaut souvent l attente, notamment pour voir les nouilles être tirées à la main et pour déguster un bouillon savoureux et réconfortant. Les portions sont généreuses et le rapport qualité-prix est bon, avec un choix d épaisseurs de nouilles et la possibilité de sélectionner des types de bouillon, y compris des options végétariennes et du Dan Dan épicé. Le menu reste simple mais efficace, et les plats vedettes comme les nouilles au boeuf et le Dan Dan sont régulièrement salués pour leur fraîcheur et leur texture ; certains critiques trouvent le bouillon parfois un peu fade ou trop salé, d autres disent qu il est parfaitement épicé et aromatique. Le service est généralement rapide et efficace, mais peut sembler impersonnel ou débordé lors des heures d affluence ; l espace est souvent décrit comme petit et bruyant, et l absence d air conditionné est mentionnée par temps chaud. Enfin, le commerce comprend une épicerie en sous-sol qui ajoute au charme et confirme que Nouilles de Lan Zhou est une référence à Montréal pour des nouilles faites sur place et des bouillons riches.
I wish we could give a higher rating. Especially since this is our second time back in Montreal ,
We were here last year from Boston, & we were in china town, we decided we would come back to try the fresh hand pulled noodles,
Today we stood in the line for 45 min, & were left feeling underwhelmed by the dishes & the choice.
Our table doesn't eat beef or pork, they don't have any chicken , so the veggie was the only option- the only real choice was the noodle thickness.
So this is just a lot of broth & a whole lot of noodles. Nothing by way of protein- with options such as tofu, seitan, fake meat, this just feels like such a let down.
& the veggies that were put were measly for the size of the bowl, 3 broccoli, 2 pieces of bok choi & few corn pieces.
The size is generous, but for water & noodles, I would say it is overcharged.
The broth, like others pointed out, is so mild & plain. It could be enjoyed if you like that but after enjoy hunan cuisine & Mala hot pot in Boston, we were lacking the flavors - there was only some chilli crisp & some vinegary sauce on the table. They wouldn't give us any soy sauce when we requested. They actually asked us to go down to the store (in their basement)to get the sauces we wanted.
I was amazed at that attitude.
I could have made the soup work with some flavoring, salt, some sauce, something. So that was a letdown.
We just sat there munching noodles & slurping on bland water the entire time.
For the wait time, lack of protein & for the flavor (or lack of it), it was a hard pass for us. Maybe the non-vegetarian folks have more luck at this place, I hope you guys do!
Because the noodles are fresh, & it needs a nice broth to shine in.
If you're coming to Boston, please try kungfu malatang in Brighton ! So many veggies & mushroom varieties- plus a fresh hunan chilly base makes for an amazing meal in the cold months.
Or any of the little q hot pot branches. They make an amazing pot of soup noodles
Service was decent. Atmosphere was okay. Food was good - great noodles, broth was okay. Nothing wowed me but I'd stop in again for a quick bite. Portion sizes were large & prices were reasonable.

Food is nice, taste delicious
Soup noodles Looks ok, Dam Dam noodles looks boring compare to menu. Which looks bright apicy red.
Hygiene is bad, that's why I only give it 3 stars
1. chopsticks touching the menu cover, which will never be clean
2. When I ask for extra bowls & spoons, the waiter use his finger to hold the part you eat. Which god knows when is the last time his clean his hand, or what he touches.
All of the things were delicious. There was a long queue but it passed fast. Small place, it is not very proper for crowded groups. Merci, bonne journée!

There is always a line here so be prepared to wait a bit before being able to enter the restaurant. Although, the tables are changed pretty quickly so even though the line might seem a bit long, it's usually not too bad. The food itself was great. I really enjoyed the texture of the noodles & you get to pick the thickness of them as well. I do feel like the flavours were a bit light, I would have preferred the flavours to be stronger so that the noodles would have more flavours as well. The spiciness is really good though which was great. The side dishes were definitely not as good, I feel like all the effort are put into the noodles which makes the side dishes not that great. The service is fast. We had several waiter & waitresses serve us throughout the night & honestly speaking, some were a lot more polite & gentle than others. They were all working professionally, but some waiters gave off a bit of a rude impression at times. Even though the restaurant has a lot of tables & can accommodate a lot of people, the tables are pretty small.
Amazing noodles. I had the Lanzhou beef noodles-the broth was full of flavor, & the handmade noodles really made a difference, both in texture & overall taste. The egg was somewhat cold but still delicious, & the seaweed potato salad was a nice complement.
I was also surprised by the portion size. I ordered a medium bowl, & it was much more than expected-quite bountiful.
The only negative thing I could mention is the atmosphere. It feels cramped & a little messy, & the fact that I had to sit next to the washroom door didn't help.

The Lanzhou beef noodle soup was excellent. It's always fun to watch the guys hand pull the dough into long threads of noodles. The beef was tasty & the broth was so flavorful. Will definitely be back again. Highly recommended!
