I ordered the first item on the menu which is the handpulled noodles with beef for $11. Cash only. The broth is very weak. Not much flavor at all. But the noodles are very bouncy and have good texture. Noodles were 10/10 but if only if the broth was stronger and need to be more flavorful. The beef and vegetables were good. Bok choy had a nice crunch to it. I think dun Huang is still the best lanzhou beef noodle soup in NY. read more

More of a 3.5 -- I heavily debated between cold skin noodles from a nearby booth, but Lanzhou noodles was speaking to me. Got the mixed beef knife cut noodles (soup) and was impressed with the variety of meat, tripe and tendon. You can choose between the soup or dry version of the noodles; both ranging around the same price. Upon first sip of the broth, I noticed it was rather light, but the pickled cabbage and chili oil (provided on the side) made all the difference. Noodles were thick and had that satisfying, chewy spring I was searching for. While this did satisfy the itch, it's probably not my favorite noodle joint in the mall LOL. I'd come back here only if I'm craving for Lanzhou noodles. CASH ONLY. read more

One of the more popular stalls at the New World Mall Food Court. If I were to be fully honest, the beef soup was a bit bland. The unlimited chili oil and Chinese picked cabbage by the counter sure helps! Knife sliced noodles were great and had the perfect texture. Overall still a good beef noodle soup that tastes like something you'd get from China. Will definitely come back to try other dishes. read more

Really good and fast hand pull beef noodle soup. Noodles are really good and the service was really fast. Lots of people in this food court and overall a really good spot.

I thought their beef noodle soup was solid. Extremely generous with the noodles and protein. Would've liked more bok choy though! The broth tasted pretty standard... needed a decent amount of chili oil to enhance the flavors. I think I would've enjoyed this dish more if the noodles were thicker as well... but that's just a personal preference! Very affordable though! read more

Local places with hand pull noodles always draw me in, but this one was pretty mid. Located in New World Mall, you can't miss this spot. I think it was the only one serving these noodles, with people constantly ordering here. Bring your own water, as they don't offer that here. Cash only. The Beef Noodle Soup ($10) lacked flavor for me, that I had to dunk in lots of chili oil. But even then, the broth didn't give off the flavor one would have when tons of beef slices were submerged in. The noodles were clumped in, thinner than what I would have liked, but handmade alright! I wish they gave a tad more veggies to balance the meat veggie ratio. I feel like there's better elsewhere! read more

I love visiting here occasionally with my family to grab braised beef handpulled noodles (no. 1). The service is pretty fast. The broth is super flavorful and the braised beef is perfection. I love their chilli oil and pickled mustard greens counter (yacai). Adding the chilli oil and the yacai elevates the noodles so much and brings out the flavor. I also really love the strong cilantro of the broth. My sister hates cilantro and she doesn't mind eating this. The ambiance is whatever since it is inside a food court. I highly recommend trying this place. read more

Absolutely huge and delicious portions that make it a nice meal. It is cash only though, but 2 bowls of the beef noodle soup will run exactly $20 with tax. Bring your own water or expect to buy some if you get thirsty because this one doesn't have self service water. There is, however, self service chili oil and pickled vegetables. Picking up your order is a bit chaotic since they just try to yell numbers but it's pretty loud down th Beef noodle soup ($10) - broth has such a strong flavor that brings so much depth to the soup. Decent amount of meat and the noodles were perfectly chewy. read more

This stand in the basement of the New World Mall serves up a big bowl of noodles for really cheap. Be sure to pay in cash, and adding an egg to the bowl costs just an extra $1. I got the beef tendon noodle with egg. The time between when I ordered and when I received my food was merely 3 minutes - the time it takes for the fresh noodles to cook in the soup. Food is good, but not particularly special. The portion sizes are big, and the draw is that the cost is low (less than $15) for pretty much all items on the menu. read more

The service is kind of lacking. We ordered two noodles and one of the noodle arrived more than 15 mins after the other. The food is amazing and the cold chicken noodle is a dish I didn't expect to be this good. It's nice that you can chose the thickness of your noodle. Tried one of their bun with meat before and that one was kind of lacking. It's just like any casual chinese restaurant with no extra bell and whistle. So a good place to chat and eat with your friends. read more

This hand pull noodle shack is located in the New World food court. We ordered the seafood noodle soup for $10.50, tax included. There was plenty of seafood in the mild but satisfying broth. What made this soup special was the hand pulled noodle. The noodle was perfectly chewy and there was plenty of it. The only disappointment was the rude lady that took our order. read more

The noodles themselves are great--fresh, with a good texture. Love that they are hand-pulled, prefer to other varieties. The flavors are good. Shrimp is good, but the seafood option is too filled with chewy inedible bits of octopus, etc. Large proportion of peppers in the vegetable mix. The egg is always wildly cooked hard, better to pass. read more

A great bowl of noodles for a fair price. What more could you ask for? I always go to New World Mall to get my noodle fix. Lan Zhou handmade noodles are delicious to eat and really fun to watch them make. They are booth #15 near Gong Cha and Tea Baar. The lady who takes orders in the front is super loud and can handle so many orders so quickly! The food is prepared fresh. Within 5 minutes, you have a hot bowl of hand pulled noodles in front of you. I always either get the wonton noodles ($6.50) or the beef noodles (~$8.50). I prefer the beef because wonton noodles are better with the yellow noodles. I also saw someone who ordered their yellow fried noodles with thick sauce and beef. It looked SO good. There is a huge bucket of chilli oil for you to take as much as you need as well as pickled vegetables. Need to try all of their menu items here! read more

This beef noodle soup was fire. The broth was super flavorful and had strong hints of cilantro. The noodles were chewy and soft. The beef was UBER tender and melted in your mouth. And it was so cheap for the amount you get! I could not recommend this spot enough. However I'm busier days it is hard to get seating. You can add in your own pickled vegetables, chili oil, and soy sauce if needed. read more

Can't go wrong with hand pulled noodles. You know a place is good if it's cash only and a hole in the wall. I consider the food court a hole in the wall because getting here is interesting. The food court is found on the cellar level of the New World Mall. When you come up from the parking complex it's located to your left when you take the stairs. If you have problems finding it just looking for J Mart on the street level and take the escalators down. The lady at the counter took my counter. She spoke both mandarin and Cantonese so I had no problem telling her I wanted hand pulled beef noodle soup #1. She can be a bit pushy with the line if you don't know what you want. The "yeah what you want" attitude. Also with the egg too. I wouldn't recommend it since it comes fried and super dry. If it was poached that would be the way to go. Beside, who can taste it in the beef broth anyway? Just skip it.... the soup comes out hella quick so just get ready for it at the window. Be sure to grab some hot chili oil and also dried preserved veggies which are both available at the counter. They make the broth so much richer. I am such a fan of their noodles that several years ago when I went I instantly fell in love with them. A highly recommend joint if you're in the area. Just note this mall is filled with Asians. If you are not Asian don't feel discouraged. Give this a try and you'll also fall in love. read more

Little soup shop in the New World Mall. The hand pulled noodles were really nice and chewy and bouncy. They give you alot of noodles. The soup was on the salty side for me.

The noodles were fresh and stretchy and did not break once under my chopsticks; it was cooked to al dente. The price and quality are unbeatable. The only thing you're giving up is the restaurant ambience which I def do not mind! Also being green.. bc they use plastic single use bowls and utensils read more

When you're in the mood for a quick bite and or a hankering for mall food, this will be one of your best bets in Flushing. Located inside the New World Mall, the menu is quite encompassing with a good variety of tastes. For about 7-10 dollars you can get a quick warm meal. Noodle cravers should be very happy with the balance of a starch, protein, and vegetable fix. Varieties will include both soup base and wok-fried. Favorites include a beef stew, shredded pork sauce, corn starch base, and some of your basic pan-fried varieties. read more

If I was here any more I'd be a stool. Or a noodle. Big portions, chewy tasty full bodied noodles, and very affordable. I have a tradition of getting seafood noodle stir fry from here on the way back from Jones Beach in the summertime. Mussels, cuttle fish, imitation crab, squid and noodles for under $15. Great spicy sauce and they provide to-go little ketchup container things to pack sauce to go. I don't feel warm and tingly when interacting with the staff there, but being that it's essentially a mall stall and at this price, I'm not there for customer service. I love the New World Mall in general. Feel like I'm in Guangzhou or somewhere thousands of miles away from Flushing Queens. Not certain now with covid, but usually they're open pretty late, until 10 or 11pm from what I last remember which is awesome read more

If you're looking for authentic taste, go here! In the basement of the New World Mall is the food court (and KTV in the corner, I think). Most of the restaurants only take cash, but if you're not prepared (like me) there is an ATM. The menu is plain, no pictures, but the amount of people lined up at dinner time speaks for itself. I ordered the lamb noodles, which comes packed with veggies too. The amount of food was enough for two meals and the price was excellent. I paid more for "fresh noodles" in Chelsea and this place wins for flavor hands down. read more

Lan Zhou Handmade Noodle - Lamb noodles - Noodles Near Me - Flushing, New York

As much as I love New World Mall for its incredible variety of regional Chinese cuisines, I loathe its lack of consistency for food, service, and even price (sometimes just subject to change) (#1). Lanzhou Handmade Noodle has remained surprisingly consistent - few lines if ever, street stall worthy prices, and decent quality for a majority of their noodle dishes. It may be easy to dismiss it because it's probably the nicest Lanzhou in the area. That's not really boasting, it's merely highlighting how divey the rest of them are. Seeing as every handpulled noodle joint wants to be associated with the Lanzhou name, I can't vouch if this stall is part of the same family in Golden Mall or Manhattan/Brooklyn Chinatown. What I can vouch for is a solid beef noodle soup (niu rou mian). The broth seems light yet flavorful and the noodles tasted fresh, somewhat al dente with a nice texture. While it's not the greatest zha jiang mian (uh ... Chinese bolognese?) I've ever had, $5 was all it took for a nice helping that filled me up nicely. It was a good plop of stewed beef bits, lathering up the bed of noodles underneath with a few slices of cucumber on top for presentation props. It was more salty than sweet, which may come as a negative for ZJM fans. Service has always been pretty efficient and doesn't have the attitude a lot of the other adjacent stalls seem to have. I suppose I can't blame them with pushy patrons all over the place (especially during lunch hour and the weekend), but thankfully I've never had to wait long for Lanzhou to get its food act together. _________ (#1) Are you paying attention Live Seafood?

Thanks Jando for helping me find this posting on Yelp! Well here it is! The best beef noodle soup at the New World Mall Food court. Important to note. This is NOT Li's Lan Zhou Hand Stretched noodles. They are actually located right next to one another. I believe this site was a more recent arrival and I'm clearly a bigger fan of this one. The noodles are about equal for the two restaurants. Very chewy, home-made and just the right amount of bite. Lanzhou Hand made noodle had better beef and broth though. The beef was more savory and obviously tender. The tendon was cooked to perfection. The broth was also richer, more flavorful and a darker color. Definitely my style. Would recommend the knife cut noodle slices. The picked mustard greens are too tart and pungent for my liking. This food court is insane. I see teenagers walking around with massive bowls of food. Impressive. Hope to return soon. read more

This location is located in the cleaner and nicer New World Mall, the original location is in the Golden Mall. So this is located on the bottom floor in the food court of the New World and there are a TON of food options. I think Lanzhou makes a very respectable bowl of noodle soup. It's not fancy, it's served in a plastic to go bowl but it's quick, cheap and pretty filling. Just remember it's a food court stall and it's quick and cheap and your experience will be a good one. The food: Lanzhou beef hand stretched noodles- I think the hand stretched noodles are great. The chew is nice and the smooth texture is great. The beef is really tender, but it doesn't have the boldest beef flavor but texturally it's nice. This bowl is great any time, but really hits the mark on a cold winter day. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=psuktJwq4aiYUDV6x2Ptvg read more

It's the end of March, and NY feels like winter just started. It's ridiculously cold and all I can think of is hot noodle soup. My family wanders into the New World Mall Food Court and there are so many Asian style restaurants t choose from, but I zone into "Handmade" noodles because I figured they'd have some excellent beef noodle soup to warm my bones! BEEF TENDON NOODLE SOUP: So instead of beef, I ordered the tendon noodle soup. The tendons, which were quite abundant, were of great texture and tasted great. And there were a lot of noodles as well. Normally, I hate when restaurants put so much noodle in the dish just to cover the lack of meat, but for one, there was plenty of tendon, and two, this was great because the noodles here are hand pulled! You can see them making it from start to finish. What's most impressive is the quality of this soup when it's in a food court! It's a shame I'm only visiting a few days, I'd like to have explored this menu a bit more! read more

I was a bit hesitant about getting Lanzhou noodles at this place first, but then I realized that management changed. The last time I ordered noodles here, I found out they put MSG in their soup, giving my a horrible headache. But it looks so different now. The awning is different. And there was a special . Chicken pulled noodles for only $3. Can't be that bad, right? I got it to go (they separated the soup from the noodles). The sauce that they used for the chicken was very similar to braised brisket. Oh, and it looks like they laid off on the MSG. Yum. read more

I was researching places to get noodle soups in Flushing's Chinatown and Lan Zhou Handmade Noodles was one of the places I read about. We were in the New World Mall food court and when I saw Lan Zhou Handmade Noodles that's were I decided to eat. Next time I'll need to get there earlier as it appears that they do run out of things. I wanted pork but had to settle for beef. The beef noodle soup was outstanding. There was ample veggies and beef and the noodles were perfectly cooked al dente. The broth was good but I decided to add some chili sauce to spice it up a bit. Yes the reviews I read about Lan Zhou Handmade Noodles were not exaggerating, every bit as good as the reviews said. I need to go back and try some of their other soups. I also saw some other places that I want to try in that food court. read more

Don't let the shouting cashier scare you away! The noodles here are delicious! Whenever I go to the food court at the New World Mall with cravings for lamian, this is my go-to spot. Freshly-made and chewy noodles are made to your liking: stir-fried, in soup, or with a nice thick meat sauce on top. All for around $6-$8 per plate or bowl!! You can't go wrong. My favorite is the beef tendon noodle soup, followed closely by the zhajiangmian. I've also tried some of their other offerings, like stir-fried lamian and lamb burger; they weren't bad, but I didn't love either. Note that if you come during prime eating time, you should be prepared to spend some time finding seating. It can get pretty hectic. read more

This place is definitely overhyped. The noodles were decent for their price but nothing to write home about. $7 for a bowl of handstretched noodles with 5-6 pieces of beef and a fried egg on top. Ordering was a bit confusing since my Mandarin skills are non-existent. After standing there and pondering what I should order, I figured that we ordered then paid or paid then ordered. But the cashier was yelling out orders in Chinese and I was lost. But I somehow managed to leave with a bowl of beef noodle soup. Go figure? It was definitely filling and I was definitely stuffed afterwards. read more

For seven bucks, great value. A high-quality, authentic super classic bowl of noodles. Had it on a cold, rainy day and it felt so good. I got the beef noodle soup. The beef was oh-so tender. SUPER tender. I'm talking about butter melting in your mouth. But not too fatty. The beef portion was good too, especially given the reasonable prices. The noodles were handmade. I had a lot of fun watching them stretch the noodles as they made my dish. Not the best handmade noodles in NYC, or even New World Mall, but overall solid. You can also choose to add chili oil and pickled vegetables, and I recommend this as it makes the soup more flavorful. The one downside to this dish is that there aren't a lot of vegetables in it. I wouldn't go to this place if you are health conscious, but for a solid classic Chinese dish at a great price, this place is a solid option. read more

These are by far some of the best noodles in flushing. Paired with the signature dumplings and you got a problem, no cap

Located in the basement belly of New World Mall, where the cavernous and cacophonous food court lies, Li's Lanzhou Hand Stretched Noodles is a stall that provides a dinner and a show. Before ordering, I spent a few amused minutes watching the noodle master stationed at the front wrestling with an enormous ball of dough, stretching, slamming, and whipping it into submission until it was shredded into noodles and boiled for a new order of noodles. I was impressed enough to get in line to place my order of vegetable noodles in soup, with amounted to a paltry $5 and was ready within minutes. Three condiments are available at the pickup counter - a jar of pickled vegetables, a bowl of spicy chili oil, and a bottle of vinegar. As the picture of my bowl might suggest, I helped myself to some generous spoonfuls of the spicy oil. At first glance, the vegetable noodle is a disappointment. Neither the toppings (wood ear mushrooms, a handful of baby bok choy, slices of tomato, and a hardboiled egg) nor the serving size seem particularly notable. For me, the light and uninteresting broth was helped enormously by the addition of spice and it wasn't until I reached the noodles at the bottom of the bowl that my taste buds woke up. Hand pulled noodles were a first for me and I found the texture toothsome - pliable and all of the stretching worked the gluten in the dough to make the ramen uniquely chewy. There was a good amount of it hiding below the broth, so that by the time I reached my last bite, I was pretty full. Service here is quick, if a little unfriendly. The cashier in the front who takes orders calls out to those passing by in Chinese, presumably to lure them to the stall. But once you get there, she is unsmiling and the interaction is about as warm as a glacier. Still, efficiency is to be appreciated - money gets handed over, she screams your order to the cooks in the back, and high turnover of noodle production ensures that your food will come out quickly. Though the noodles themselves were delicious, I found the broth and the accompanied toppings just okay. For the price, it was a decent meal and I'd love to come back and (based on other Yelp reviews) try some of their fried noodles and dumplings. read more

Lan Zhou Handmade Noodle - Vegetable noodles in soup - Noodles Near Me - Flushing, New York

Located in the food court in New World mall is this Lan Zhou Noodle place within a plethora of other food stalls. This hand pulled noodle place serves both hand pulled noodles in soup and stir fry. This place is a no frills, cash only establishment. I ordered the #4 Beef Stew in soup ($8.50) and got my order within 5 minutes. The people working mainly speak mandarin so there may be a bit of a language barrier but no worries because they'll let you know when your order is ready. The handmade noodles tasted fresh and cooked to the perfect texture. The noodle soup was filled with a large portion of noodles but there wasn't enough beef or veggies in it to balance it all out. The flavor of the beef was a bit on the bland side but I will say the meat was tender. They have a big container of chili oil on the counter so for all the spice lovers out there don't miss the chance to add some to your noodles! read more
