Lanzhou Beef Noodle

I will get the negative out of the way first. The establishment was dirty, especially the restroom and the service was slow. Now, the best part of eating here was trying freshly handmade noodles. The soup served is a decent portion. I ordered the Chinese hamburger; plain and simple, no taste. The overall experience was alright. I doubt I’ll come back and visit for another try

Just like most of the Yelpers who left their positive reviews here, I also highly recommend this restaurant. Although the flavor of the beef noodle soup was not exactly like the ones in Lan Zhou in Western China, I would say this is very very close to it. Back in Lan Zhou, beef noodle soup is considered a stable for the masses. They eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are very popular street food. Some of the street vendors leave their beef soup simmer all year long. Some of the soups have been boiling for years. It’s rear nowadays to find restaurants still hand pulled their noodles. With hand pulling the noodles, the cooked noodles become very chewy and tasty. That’s why they are so popular. Since I was here for lunch alone, I ordered the lunch combo which included the popular beef noodle, a soft drink, and a braised egg. I too loved the food here. With a bit of spicy kick, the whole bowl of noodle became very delicious. Parking is a bit of a problem as Lan Noodle is collo

Lanzhou beef noodle is super fragrant and comforting. The hand pulled noodle were amazing, so chewy and fresh. Beef was also tender. And the Chinese burger was delicious too, even though I didn’t like the strong smells of the lamb.
