Lanzhou beef noodles & dumplings 大牛兰州拉面 — Restaurant in Sydney

I needed some hay-fever relief, and my bowl of classic Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup (Lanzhou lamian) far exceeded my expectations. The broth was rich, with just the right balance of savoury depth. The shaved beef melted in my mouth, while the tender daikon radishes, fresh herbs, and kick of chili oil added layers of complexity. The noodles were delightfully chewy, giving that perfect slurp-worthy texture.

Alongside, I enjoyed 8 prawn and chive dumplings that were pan-fried to perfection—crispy on the outside, juicy and bursting with flavour on the inside. The service was fast, efficient, and helpful, making the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is simple and clean, with a high turnover of happy customers—exactly as you'd expect for a place like this at lunchtime.

All this for about $30, even with prices having gone up from the menus in Google pics. Now I can breathe freely...

Unassuming little spot that hides absolutely fab food. We came for the Lanzhou Lanmian and weren’t disappointed: tasty broth and perfectly cooked noodles with just the right amount of chewy goodness. I found the standard spice level nowhere near spicy enough so will go for extra next time (depends on your tolerance though). Was delighted to see the noodles are hand-pulled fresh for the pot which you’d never have guessed from the size of the place. Service was perfunctory but efficient and we got a lovely warm farewell from the guys in the kitchen when we complimented the food. Looking around the room at other people’s orders, everything looked great, will be back to try...

Got food poisoning for 2 days after dinner. My wife is breastfeeding. This is horrible. Terrible service and food. How could you serve bad food to kids!?

Already reported to council, and they couldn’t even find the restaurant registration at this address. No food safety supervisor information shown at all.

The business is in Mascot and they operating in Rosebery as well? Shop sign shows another different undefined name. And the third company charges?

What are you trying to do?

Can’t...
