The beef noodle soup with shaved noodles. While my review is on the negative side, I will say that the meat was extremely tender.

We purposefully came for a 5pm spot since we had 6 people. This place was a bit busy, but didn't seem too crazy. We had seated and no one came by for a hot minute. But we were able to order fairly quickly and they were kind enough to ask how to split the bill ahead of time. Food came out apps first then noodles second. The beef brisket noodle soup was beautiful, smelled delicious, and full of every ingredient. Daikon was cooked and had a bit of a crunch to it. I added the Taiwanese marinated egg for $1.50 and it came in a separate bowl. We loved the broth, clean, flavorful, and heart warming. The only spices or seasonings on the table was a perfectly crisp chili oil and their dumpling sauce which seemed like a mixture of soy sauce and black vinegar. I loved dipping my noodles in both. The noodles are hand made, I wish I tried the hand cut noodle version over the regular. I was happy with what I got though. I'd skip the egg. It was hard, rubbery, and cold. Not really my preference for next time.

Service was 10x better than the food itself. Judging from all the dumplings and shiu mai that came out, it seems as though those were sitting on the steamer or under a heat lamp for quite some time. re: skin was a bit tough. All the waitstaff was amazing, friendly and incredibly welcoming.The food on the other hand tasted like something a cross between Fujianese, Canton and Chinese style fusion. It wasn't terrible and tasted middle of the road. Maybe suited for the Panda Express crowd that is looking for "authentic" food of sorts.The dining area is pleasant and thoughtfully executed. Parking is ample too. Doubt I would be back but kudos for bringing Asian style foods to this side of Colorado blvd.

Don't believe the hype marketing video on Facebook or other social media. Food and service and marketing does not match. Not coming back here again, got food order wrong and these people have no attention to detail. Don't go, you're welcome.

Everything leading up to the actual experience was giving off great vibes. Too bad the actual experience was disappointing. The space is likable and what you would expect. But the dumplings are definitely reheat of frozen, not freshly made. Noddles are made in house, I can tell by the uneven shape of the thick wide variety, and in a stir fry, it's pretty good and very filling (probably can get lunch and dinner out of it)The noodle soup is where it all falls apart. No matter how good the noodles are, if the soup is not good, the whole dish is ruined. Sad to report the soup tasted like canned stock, there's absolutely no sign of ingredients being cooked in liquid for a flavorful broth. Very lacking. Service was friendly, but not enough to make up for bad soup.

Noodles and dumpling! What more do you need. @lansnoodles is a week old. This not soft spoken Gary first rodeo. He also owns @denverhasu where I first met him. The decor is uplifting and red seems to be the predominant color. Love! They make all their noodles in house. Whether it's hand pull or Knife Cut. The former reflects the name of the business. Short for Lanzhou (hand pull). We had the pleasure of trying a few of his really flavorful dishes which are featured here. I have two personal faves. Can you guess which ones?A4: Tasty Shredded PotatoH2: House Pan Fried Pork BunsH4: House Chicken DumplingsN5: Noodle Soup with Shrimp and Braised Egg / Knife Sliced NoodleS4: Stir Fired Noodle Beef Combo with Hand Pulled Noodles DS2: Black Sticky Rice with Coconut Milk and Mango.Aside from the main dining room there's an area to the left of the giant door(you'll see) that offers a bit of a privacy and a few high chair by the chefs area.

I'm very excited to have a hand pulled noodle place open up in Denver. When you walk in, you're greeted with very nice people all around. You can see them making noodles and dumplings in house. It's a nice ambience with enough balance between light and dark. Bathrooms are clean. Plenty of seats available.The food was so delicious. My favorite was the pan friend dumplings surprisingly. All very flavorful. The noodles felt clean and it came with a nice portion. Lots of meet and protein as well. From photos, I'll need to come back to try the dry noodles and the other noodle option instead of the hand pulled ones. All in all. Delicious and wonderful addition.

Honestly, not much to rave about this place. Horrible service for my party of 2. We were seated without any water and had to almost hunt somebody down to ask for water and tell them we were ready to order. That entire situation took around 10 minutes. The spicy cucumbers came out first and they were nicely marinated in the sauce and I liked that they skinned the cucumbers. However, it wasn't really spicy at all so that could be improved. Our beef noodle soup came out after and I asked if I could get a smaller bowl to share. The soup was really light which tasted nice but that's not how beef noodle soups are supposed to taste like. So I wouldn't really categorize their item as beef noodle soup but just noodle soup with ingredients. The best way to explain it would be that their noodle soup is like a pho version. Traditional Beef noodle soup is way more flavorful and this does not compare. After finishing up our noodle soup, our soup dumplings haven't arrived yet so I asked what the status on it was. Turns out, they never put in the order at all. When it did come out, to our surprise, it only came with 5 pieces and the price was $12. The wrapping used was way too thick as well. The soup dumplings broke apart when trying to pick it up because it was overcooked. This didn't taste good at all. Definitely avoid ordering. Overall wasn't a good experience. Service was severely lacking for our table. Food didn't taste that great either. I wouldn't come back in the future. I'd rather go to other Chinese food spots.

Had to check out this new spot that I was seeing online, and it lived up to the hype! I love that it's a casual restaurant with affordable prices. Food was quick and service was good. The pork buns and hand pulled noodles were amazing!!

Arrived at 5pm on a Saturday just before the line started and service was reasonable, they're just overwhelmed during busy times. Beef noodle soup was very authentic to LanZhou La Mian. Soup dumplings were okay, but not especially soupy, and not at all typical of a hand-pulled noodle house. I'd love to see more Chinese classics like Eggs & Tomatoes or a spicy noodle stir fry with more veggies.
