Lanzhou Ramen

It was a very nice place to eat at!!! We came around 5:30 and there were a few people only. Food was fast and everything came out under 10 mins of ordering. The portions were great for the price. It was so much food almost 3 people couldn't finish it. The ambiance was really nice as there was music playing in the background and there wasn't much people. Very underrated spot!!! I recommend the shaved noodles as they were nice and chewy!

Great spot for a quick, yet satisfying meal. This place offers a good variety of options (dumplings, scallion pancakes, noodle soups, stir fried, etc). Some friends and I stopped by for a quick bite; substantial portion and well priced. The waitress/ cashier was very helpful and knew I liked pickled mustard green so gave me extra on my beef noodle soup. She also gave a comparable substitute for a missing seafood item for clam in the Ma La Tang dish. Would highly recommend for a cheap, quick meal or take out!

Ordered the shrimp Shumai pulled noodles with veg soup and pan fried shrimp vegetables dumplings because I'm pescatarian. The soup was bland noodles soft and very oily. Maybe I should have chosen the knife cut noodles or asked for extra firm. The Shumai is the same as the frozen super market kind. The dumplings were amazing, but very oily. Edible, would go back for dumplings.

Fast, efficient, and good value. The noodle is tasty: they have several thinnest option to chose. The soup is a bit salty tho. Not a lot of meat. But I personally like the noodle texture, very chewy. Not greasy at all. $9.5 is totally worth the value.

Not the best not the worst beef noodle soup. The broth wasn't super deep and needed a spoon of the chili oil to bring up the flavor. Similar to what other reviews said, the noodles are pretty over cooked. I was trying to get a pic of the noodle pull but the noodles kept breaking... not a bad place to fill the craving but also not very memorable.

I love this place bc it's cheap, fast, hefty portions, and tastes like home. I wouldn't say it's the best noodle soup I've had in NYC but it really hits in its own way. Got the Beef Stew Shaved Noodle Soup and it was simple yet so satisfying - meat was tender, soup wasn't too oily or salty (unlike soooo many other noodle soup joints tbh), and the noodles were clearly handmade (possibly a bit overcooked but still tasted good). I literally only came here bc other restaurants in the area were full or closed, while this one was empty.. but so glad I gave it a try. Also, they take card!

Beef handpulled soup noodles is my #1 order from this spot.$10, no frills. Comes with fresh noodles and tender soft beef. Soup was very tasty and had some depth, not overly drowning in salt. The bokchoy veggies were fresh and crunchy.They accept credit card.

This place has large variety of noodles in different formats, from soup based to dry, hand pulled noodles to knife shaved noodles, with varieties of meat options. We personally tried the dry beef shaved noodles and the lamb hand pull noodle (soup). The dry beef shaved noodles is pretty good - the knife shaved noodle texture is quite chewy and on the al dente side, with the beef quite flavorful and tossed with lots of vegetables. This is a pretty hearty dish and is definitely sufficient for 1 person to enjoy. The lamb hand pull noodle was a bit of a letdown. While the soup is clear and very soothing, the lamb was a bit dry and somewhat bland, and the noodles were overcooked. If you go to this place, definitely opt for the knife shaved noodles as those are on par with some of the good ones that I had in Seattle.

Solid no-frills place for noodles and noodle soups! We got the beef stew hand pulled noodle soup, vegetable noodle soup, beef shaved noodle soup, and pork and chive dumplings. The noodle soup portions were very generous but we all agreed that we wished there were more meat/toppings for the price (~$10 each). The food came out very quickly, so def stop by if you need a quick meal!

The noodles are chewy and it's delicious because I'm starving. But really I don't know if the noodles are good because I was really hungry. For the price it's really it's okay.
