★★★★☆ 4.0 Beatrice Li · Jan 2026

Service was quick and helpful. We got the braised beef soup with pickles and the belt flat noodles, which was a hearty soup with a bit of tartness from the pickled greens. The belt flat noodles were nice and chewy- and filling. We also got the Northwestern lamb soup noodle dish - a lighter soup with less noodles comparatively, but still just as flavorful. The pork buns were also pretty good, with a decent amount of meat. The popcorn chicken was very well seasoned and could be eaten as is without any sauces, which is saying a lot since we love our sauces. Wish I came here sooner.

Delicious food. Very authentic Chinese noodle and freshly made. We got the following: Lanzhou hand-pulled noodle, mung bean noodles with garlic salt, spicy ground pork dry noodles, popcorn chicken And did family style. Food came out fast

★★★★★ 5.0 James Wang · Aug 2025

Absolute gem of a restaurant, which explains why there are wait times outside Thursday - Sunday evenings. Their classic Lanzhou noodle soup is delicious but pretty much any of their options have a place in my heart. Get their wide, house made noodles and the broth is not only flavorful, but also filled with a good amount of protein and vegetables. Staff are very friendly and they have both digital and physical menus!

★★★★★ 5.0 My Hoa N. · Sep 2025

The best handpulled noodles in the area. Great texture and flavors. All fhe food came out fresh and delicious. Will definitely come back to try more items. The spicy level is definitely tolerable. Super friendly staff and fast service.

★★★★★ 5.0 Nisan Yevdaev · Feb 2026

This place is very busy on weekends and it took us about 30 mins to get a table. However, once you order the food comes out very quickly and everything tasted great. I would recommend the braised beef noodle bowl.
