    Spicy pig ear
    Kim l.

    Lunch date with hubs. Debated between fish soup, ox and Mifen and ended up here. We were in and out in 30 mins. Super fast service. Stewed pork rib noodle soup: 4/5 braised beef was more flavorful. Small round noodles are too thin and ended up being overcooked with a soft texture. Braised beef with Chinese pickles noodle soup: 5/5 big portions and tasty broth. Similar to the one at valley fair. Again small round noodles were too soft. Spicy pig ear: 4/5 good with a nice kick to it. Glad to finally have tried this place!

    Knife cut

    凉皮was the best dish by far. Spicy and soy saucy in the best way. Also very chewy IMO could have used vinegar but they have it on the tables The soup noodles were pretty standard flavor wise. The knife cut noodles had fantastic texture though

    When the staff speak better Chinese you know it's good. I also appreciate the are English and Chinese menus; you can never tell exactly what it is from the English translation. I can say the noodles are definitely authentic. Some places they have knife cut noodles instead of knife shaved noodles so I was glad they actually had the shaved ones. The broth is flavorful, the meat as well and they didn't skimp out on it. This is the best chain for authentic Chinese noodles I know of. Service is good too. The staff let us know about allergen information, and was helpful when I called ahead. There's cool decorations like a noodle bowl model and cool logos inside, and plenty of seating.

    Lanzhou Hand Pulled Noodles with large wide noodles

    This place has been on my list of places I wanted to try for a while now, and we finally got to try it recently. Overall it was pretty good! You order through your phone and service is pretty fast bringing the food. I got their classic Lanzhou hand pulled noodles with large wide noodles. The broth was very tasty and the noodles had good texture. I felt like the meat was just okay, but I was happy with everything else. It's also fairly small inside and can get busy/cramped, so keep that in mind if you go during busy times. I'd recommend stopping by!

    Beef noodle soup with Chinese pickled vegetables 3/5 - this was a bit bland. Broth didn't have much flavor but the beef was tender. I liked the noodles as well Next time I will get their dry noodles. I had a taste and it was really good

    Mala Spicy Beef Noodle Soup
    Warren K.

    Got here at around 5 PM on a Tuesday night and it was relatively empty, left around 6:30 and if you came in then there still would be no wait time but it did start to get fuller. We tried the Mala Spicy Beef Noodle Soup and the Langzhou Handpulled Noodle Soup. The Mala one was ordered with the large flat noodles, which I would highly recommend as they absorb the flavor extremely well. I would recommend asking for a pair of scissors to cut them tho as their a longly connected strong of noodles. Mala flavor was definitely there as well. For the Langzhou Handpulled Noodle Soup, it wasn't as spicy as I would prefer but if you can increase the spice level with the provided chili oil on the table. I got the normal round noodles but I thought they were rather thin, and look to try the medium round noodles next time. There great thing about this place is that it's not crazy expensive, the food comes out in like 10 minutes, and their noodle quality is great! Just have to make sure to order the right things. A solid 4.2 stars for me!

    Lanzhou hand pulled beef noodles with belt flat noodles (no spice)
    Mary A.

    I kept seeing this place along Downtown Mountain View since its grand opening, and I've been interested in trying this place out. We came by on a chilly evening in December for some much needed warm soup noodles. We showed up by 5:30 on a Sat evening and were seated quickly, but the dinner crowd was emerging when we left the restaurant an hour later. My boyfriend and I both got soup noodles - I opted for the Lanzhou Hand-pulled Noodles (no spice, belt flat noodles) and he got the Braised Beef Stew Noodles (spicy, large flat noodles). Both soups came out fairly quickly. I loved the chew of my belt flat noodles, and it was a good thickness as well. The no spice broth was fairly light overall, but I wish there was more flavor in the broth. Mainly tasted like a very light salted broth overall. My boyfriend's broth was surprisingly not spicy by my tastes, and I have a pretty low tolerance towards spicy foods (for example, hot cheetos is on the upper level of my spice tolerance, and his broth was less spicy than that). If anything, his broth was more flavorful with barely a hint of spice. We weren't sure if it just happened to be the day we showed up or if it was truly intentional, but I guess we'll have to come back to see if that's the case! I mean, I can't get enough of those noodles!

    The shop looks underwhelming from outside but i'm glad we went in and discovered a good handpulled noodles place. Self ordering makes it easy since i spend a bit extra time looking up photos of each item. Finally orded 1 dry and 1 soup noodles. Both were delicious. Super flavorful and the portion is insane for the price. Will definitly come back to try more ! The space is quite limited and they also want to maximize the space so it does get very skin-to-skin with other people. I did ask for the table in the corner and they had to problems with :)

    knife cut noodles, not recommended
    Jungmin R.

    Unfortunately, this place wasn't for me. 1 star for the knife-cut noodles. The length and width were too inconsistent--the first piece I picked up was as short and fat as a sliced rice cake--and the texture was almost gooey, which made it unpleasant that I couldn't finish. The broth was good but on the lighter side. There weren't many toppings. Their round noodles were good.

    Chili Oil Noodles with Braised Beef
    Allie G.

    We visited OX9 Lanzhou Handpulled Noodles on a Friday evening, and waited about 10 minutes to be seated outside. The (dog-friendly) outdoor seating didn't have much ambiance, but the interior looked pretty casual too. We ordered a few starters to share between the 4 of us - Cucumber With Garlic Sauce (nice, refreshing), Marinated Cucumber Salad (more of a wasabi flavor), and the Spicy Wontons (couldn't have these, but everyone else loved them). For my entree, I was somewhat limited as a non-pork eater, and chose the Chili Oil Noodles with Braised Beef. These were pretty good, and the beef was especially well-prepared and soft. However, my friends seemed more excited about their dishes, like the Stewed Pork Ribs Noodle. Service was quick and efficient. Overall, good for dinner but probably more exciting if you eat pork.

    Braised beef chili oil dry noodles
    Vivi B.

    Really delicious and chewy flat wide noodles! The braised beef was so tender. The chili oil and seasoning were a little sweet, and very mild, not spicy at all even though I asked for spicy. Everyone around us was having the soup. We ordered the dry noodles/ The marinated cucumbers were amazing! They give you scissors to cut them. Drinks options are limited. I am glad we got there around 11:30 because when we left there was a line out the door.

    Fried wontons
    Carmel P.

    Came here last night for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it. The pricing was super affordable and the portions were great. I got the Lanzhou beef noodle soup. The beef tasted wonderful and the noodles were super fresh. I absolutely loved the fried taro balls as it wasn't too sweet. I'd love to come back and try their stir fry noodles next time. Kids loved their food too

    Beef Noodle Soup
    Xing Hui L.

    I've frequented this spot quite a few times for dinner. My friend and I love the convenience of parking at the nearby garage to charge up our cars while we enjoy a delicious warm hand pulled noodle dish. My most recent visit was this past Friday where my friend and I stopped by at around 6-7pm. The wait was not too long, I'd say less than 10 minutes, and then we were immediately seated (I requested to be seated outdoors because I had my pup, Ellie, with me). To start, I ordered the spicy beef noodles along with a side of sliced spicy beef. One important note here - don't be afraid to order the spicy dishes, they're just covered in chili oil which their version is more on the sweeter side. While eating outdoors, the place gives off a Friday let loose type of vibe - my friend and I would just sit there chatting and people watching. Ellie also enjoys it since people stop by to say hi. She also gets a doggy water bowl. Overall, I'd highly recommend this spot.

I will say that sometimes their broth is a bit spicier than described, so just keep that in mind! You can always spice it up with the sauce bar if it's not spicy enough for you.

It's pretty hard to find options in Chinese cuisine as a veg and this place finally sees me. I always get the dry pot and I love how it's so flavorful and not that mala. You can pick however many toppings as you like, my favs are(hotpot noodles, lotus root and bunch of star donut). It's pretty heavy and definitely like a once in a while thing. Cause the dry pot has hella oil but I do think that contributes to the flavor profile. It's mainly self serve, but now they assign you tables and bring out your order to you. Service pretty fast and straightforward. For the best ambiance and taste you should go when it rains or when it's cold, it makes the food taste 10 times better! It's pretty casual and a place you can drop in anytime.
