This place deserves 5 stars all the way The service was top notch And Wowza The 2 noodle dishes we ordered were amazing We ordered 1. Signature beef noodles with the thickest homemade noodles The noodles weren't recommended thick but they were bouncy, fresh and delectable. The broth was very fragrant and the beef was tender. 2. Dan Dan noodles The thin noodles were recommended and they were very creamy and bouncy as well Both dishes, you could tell had the freshest homemade noodles as you can see in the video. Not only were the 2 noodle dishes delicious but the service was amazing. I accidentally dropped my spoon and before I saw it hit the floor the wait staff were giving me a replacement. The tea was also constantly refilled. And The service staff were very accommodating and pleasant We left a google review and now this Yelp review All 5 stars all the way This is a definite recommendation and absolutely a return visit for me Next time I'll be sure to try the lamb skewers as they have some amazing relatively cheap combos and add-ons. I can't wait See you next time and very soon. read more

Came here on a Saturday for lunch. You have to get here kind of early otherwise it will be really tricky to find parking. The restaurant is on the smaller side, but it is bright and modern. We arrived at the right time and didn't have to wait for a table. I ordered the lamb skewers and the hand pulled beef noodles. The lamb skewers were well seasoned and tasty. The noodles were delicious with a good texture and firmness. There's also a decent amount of beef in the noodles. I left feeling pretty full. Service was great as well. The waitstaff were attentive and efficient. We were checked up on several times to see if we needed anything. Overall, I had a great dining experience and look forward to returning. read more

A classic noodle shop that I keep coming back for, especially when craving a warm bowl of noodle soup. I also love their bbq sides which always come out tasty, great for sharing, and good portion sizing. Here's what we always come for: Lan Zhou Hand-Pull Beef Noodle 5/5 - Get it spicy, with your choice of noodle shape and size. Delicious and comforting. Comes in 2 sizes. Zha Jiang Noodle 5/5 - A great dry meat mix noodle option if you're not looking to get something soupy. Edamame with Preserved Vegetable 5/5 - Great starter/ appie. Cold and refreshing. Lamb Skewers 5/5 - My absolute favourite thing here are definitely the lamb skewers. Perfectly seasoned and pairs so well with all the noodle dishes. Fried Potato 5/5 - Another must get when dining here. It's crispy slices of potatoes that is great for sharing and lightly spiced. Overall, a great meal for lunch or dinner. Can't wait to come back for more! read more

Great service and delicious noodles and broth! I especially loved the chili oil -- so flavorful with the perfect kick. I ordered the traditional beef noodle bowl since the biang biang with beef rib was already sold out. The noodles were totally slurp-worthy (pro tip: wear a dark shirt unless you want noodle splatter art -- I had to hide behind my zipped vest ). Don't skip the $5 add-on with the tea egg and two lamb skewers -- such a great deal and absolutely delicious. Will definitely be back! read more

Really like the noodles here! The texture is amazing. We got the traditional beef noodle soup large size. The beef is so tender and tastes great. The only downside is how oily it is... they add chili oil in the broth & I'm assuming the amount they add is how spicy you get it. If you want it less oily, ask for mild spiciness level. We also got a fried noodle dish & I found that it was just okay. Same thing here... it is oily based on how spicy you get it. For BBQ, we got pork belly, lamb skewers and cabbage. We weren't a fan of the pork belly (even though this is usually my favorite) because it was dry and chewy. The lamb skewers was pretty good but oh my, the cabbage is amazing! I love the seasoning and the char on this. I wasn't really expecting any kind of extra service here but they are amazing. Any time we asked for something, they were happy to help. They also came to ask how everything is. I liked it so much that my original visit was on a Wednesday & my second visit was 3 days later when I took my husband. He really enjoyed the noodles and the flavor of everything but did not like at all how oily it is. read more

Nice place for a bowl of piping hot noodles and quick + friendly service. The waiter was patient and gave good recommendations for the noodle sizes (8 different thicknesses to choose from!) The noodles were delicious. I shared a large bowl with my mom. The soup was extremely salt forward. I don't usually drink too much water with my meal, but I was chugging my water after a every bite to tame the savoriness. The beef was cut thin, which made it easy to eat, but wish it came with a few more pieces. If I want fresh pulled noodles, I will come here - but will order a dry noodle dish. Soup is not really the specialty here, unless you prefer your soup heavy on the salt. read more

Came for lunch. This is a small little restaurant with about 10 tables in it, and you can see their kitchen thru the glass to see how they pull the noodles. The food itself was great. Soup base is clear with beef bone taste. The size of the noodle is large (but I also ordered a large size). The noodle is al dante and beef slices aren't tough. I think it's better to eat them with a little spicy chilli oil to elevate the flavor. The service was good. They would explain their menu and they have many sizes for their noodles. read more

We ordered: 1. Lanzhou Beef noodle soup 2. Zha Jiang Mian We did wider noodles in the Zha Jiang Mian and thin noodles in the Lanzhou Beef noodle soup. Fresh noodles always taste better and they were cooked properly. Broth was light, clean, and soothing. Soybean sauce was so flavorful and coats the noodles. Portions are perfect to share with friends if you want to try multiple dishes. No issues with service. Decent amount of seating for small to medium size groups. read more

Solid Lanzhou noodle spot with hot and tasty broth and customizable noodle size options. They are generous with the noodles and beef.

Huge bowl of noodles with an affordable price. They have a variety of noodle options to choose from. They also offer bbq skewers as well to go with the noodles. Everything is good except the soup.

Gol’s Lanzhou Noodle - Noodles Near Me - Markham, Ontario

This was a delicious haven! On a cold Saturday night, my boyfriend and I were trying to find dinner at FMP, and decided to try this restaurant. Immediately, the ambiance was comfortable and peaceful, and the shop is tucked away in a corner of the plaza. We really liked the environment. The service was also great, filling up water regularly and giving us recommendations of what to order. I got the Classic Beef noodles with #4 thickness and my boyfriend got the Dan Dan noodles with #6 thickness. Both dishes were excellent, but we ended up liking each other's dish more! The Dan Dan noodle texture was so chewy and the noodle is actually a triangle shape to give it an interesting mouth feel. The sauce clings to the noodle really well. The Classic Beef was delicious as well - the soup was hearty and just what we needed on the cold night. Really recommend this place! read more

Gol’s Lanzhou Noodle - Classic Beef - Noodles Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Impressed! First time to try Lanzhou Noodle. We were around FMP area, it was a bit cold day, so we wanted a hot noodle. Then we scanned Yelp and here we were to try new style of noodle soup - Lanzhou noodle! What attracted us was their emphasis on "hand pulled noodle". We ordered: N1: Traditional Lanzhou Hand-pulled Beef Noodle (level 3 noodle, Large, extra spicy) A2: Sweet & Sour Mini fries A4: Beef Shank with Home made spicy sauce N1: LOVED the broth - Clear, but rich and flavorful. Red chili oil was floating on top but it did NOT make it feel heavy. And the beef! Melt in my mouth. Compared to PHO (which I love too!), Lanzhou Beef Noodle does not have much "raw or fresh" vegetable and meat options, but had totally different delicacy. Only disappointment was its noodle. The server recommended level 3, so we choose this. Unfortunately, we did not feel chewiness as others say. May be we had a bad luck this time? A2: Refreshing and seasoned perfectly. A4: Cold beef slices. I am not a fan of it, and we ended up putting them in the noodle. Then came out great to our preference - tender - melt in the mouth texture :) Overall, the food was very comforting. Winter is coming soon, we know where to go on cold days! Looking forward to it!!! read more

4.5/5 We've been here several times but only remembered to take photos this time. They have 9 types of hand-pulled noodles of various thickness for your choice, they are so fresh and al dente. Their signature beef shank soup noodles and Zha Jiang noodles are always delicious, their bbq skewers are also nicely grilled each time. But I personally found their food a bit salty. Seatings are quite tight, but service is always good. We enjoy our dining experience and will always come back. read more

The small portion of their traditional Langzhou hand-pulled noodles ($14.99) was satisfying, but for the hungry, an extra $2 buys you a much larger bowl. Opting for the #3 thickness, which the waiter noted was "regular", I would consider going down a size as there was a slight sticky afterbite that could be mitigated by a thinner noodle - even though the pasta had a pleasant preliminary mouthful and requisite springy texture. Aside from the noodle width, diners can also customize the spiciness level and whether it's garnished with green onion and cilantro (a must in my books to add some freshness to the bowl). Given the northern provinces of China can handle heat, we went with a light spiciness and was presented with something that looked spicy but really had an aromatic quality without the zing. In retrospect, I could likely handle the regular spiciness as there's always the option to ask for more broth to dilute the heat. In fact, they seemed very accommodating with any table that just wanted an extra bowl of the soup. The slices of beef were cut thinly and given it wasn't overly seasoned became lost amongst the starch and soup. Oh well, I guess the protein isn't an important factor when it comes to hand-pulled noodles. With the Langzhou beef chow mein ($15.99), they recommended a thickness between #3 to #5 for the dish. The #5 was too thick and al dante for my tastes, probably #3 would have been just right. Nonetheless, the stir-fried noodles had great wok hay despite there being a scant portion of vegetables and beef. Perhaps Gol's most surprising feature was their service: abundantly staffed and extremely attentive... I certainly felt well looked after! read more

New location in Markham that opened last Saturday (Dec 2nd) was very busy even around 2pm. We had a late lunch. The restaurant is clean and the servers were nice. Their signature hand pulled noodles were good. The thickness of the noodles had 9 options to choose from. The higher the number the thicker it was. The most popular choice is #3. We tried #3 and #9 noodle options. The soup was good and the thinly sliced beef was SO tender. We also tried the Jia Zhang noodle. A good option for anyone who doesn't like soup based noodles. We requested non-spicy version and added our own chili sauce. A good option to try if you're craving noodles the next time you're at First Markham Place read more

Coincidentally visited this place on grand opening day so it was 10% off! Located right next to Owl of Minerva and to the left of Nakwon inside First Markham Place. My friends and I waited a good 30-40 min for our table of 6 but the staff were all super welcoming and accommodating. The menu is also quite simple but you can customize your noodles how you like. Also, the large bowl size nets you A LOT more noodles than a regular bowl size and it's only $2 more so I think everyone should order a large bowl when they dine here. I got sanxi (level 3) thickness for my noods. Was considering level 2 but one of my friends ordered it and I'm glad I stuck w/ level 3 because level 2 was quite thin, almost at angel hair pasta thickness. I need some bite and firmness when eating noodle soup! The broth had THAT SPICE and great depth of flavour. The beef was nice and soft. Interesting to note though, you get beef shank slices when you order up a bowl of noods. My friends ordered an extra side of meat and the extra meat was actually brisket chunks which was surprisingly welcome (I kinda wish they used these brisket chunks in the orders as opposed to the shank slices lol). The grilled squid was actually really good but it did arrive a lil bit cold haha. The lamb skewers were also good but they could've included 4 sticks or even put a lil more meat on each one for the price. The bbq cabbage was actually a sleeper hit though LOL. It was seasoned w/ all the same spice that the meats were hit with and it took on a really meaty but savoury taste. The wings were cooked well but we'll prolly pass on those next time because of the price. The matchstick mini fries were also kinda strange because they tasted overly sweet. We kept eating, hoping to get some sour due to the sweet n' sour moniker attached to it on the menu but it was just sweet. One of my acquaintances from university actually happens to own this place and I'm glad to see business is good! Will be back with my friends once the hype has died down and wait times aren't crazy! They all enjoyed this place as well! read more

We came here during the soft opening of this location. As a huge fan of the Yonge and finch location, this one is closer to where we live. Was packed during the opening but I'm not sure about now. I can say that the restaurant will seat you quickly and service is fast. This felt more like a eat quickly and leave kind of meal. On to the food. Lamb skewers: delicious and seasoned well. I love lamb in whatever format though so I may be biased Squid: this dish was unfortunately mediocre as it came out cold and it was quite tough and dry. I would not order this again. Noodles: I love Lanzhou noodles and this place is just as delicious and similar to the Yonge location. Got level 5 noodles Thickness which is how we like it and the noodles were nice and chewy. Will be back to Gol's for their noodles. Great meal in cold weather. read more

Small but very cozy and modern space! The staff are very friendly and just attentive enough. The food comes really fast, but still tasted really fresh and well made. We ordered one serving of traditional beef noodle and one dan dan noodle. You get to select the style of noodle you want, there were 10 choices, all different in thickness and width. The broth for the traditional beef noodle was very flavourful, and the noodles itself came with a good amount of sliced beef along with an abundance of green onion and cilantro. While the dan dan noodles tasted good, my only complaint was that it lacked the pickled veggies and more importantly, the nutty flavour that is normally associated with it. It came loaded with fresh peanuts but that wasn't the same as adding sesame paste. Overall both noodles tasted good and we will definitely be back to try their other noodle dishes! read more

Fresh hand pulled noodle soup joint located in FMP. The plaza offers complimentary parking, however it's always busy. Anticipate some wait time/ circle around to find your parking spot. The restaurant itself is located more on the south west side of the plaza. It offers both dine in and take out services! The venue is clean, and most tables offer an unobstructed view of the chefs pulling fresh noodles in the kitchen! We've ordered their traditional and tendon noodle soup. I personally prefer the tendon noodle soup, as it was more rich in flavours. Pro: clean, friendly, tasty, and accepts credit card! Cons: no wifi, and not as much food options. read more

4.5 stars... Came here for soft opening tonight. We were greeted by the owner and seated quickly before the dinner rush. Loved the atmosphere and the decorations of the restaurant. We wanted to order the traditional noodle combo w two sides but was told by the server due to soft opening, they are not doing combos, however, we can instead order the side dishes separately. I found that a bit odd due to the fact that the dishes ARE available, however, we can't order the combo but must order the side dish in its full price separately. Nonetheless, we ordered two regular bowls of traditional noodles and a side of pork belly skewers. The noodles came rather quickly, within 5 mins of ordering in a huge bowl. Portion sizes are huge, shocked me ( first time customer, never been to their Yonge location). It was tasty and I loved that I could choose the thickness of my noodles and they are literally hand pulled infront of you in a glass window for you to see. The only disappointment/hiccup we had was with the pork belly skewers we ordered. We waited approximately 30mins into eating our noodles and followed up with the server whom told us it will be out soon, to another 20 mins with nothing to the point where I was full from the noodles but i still wanted to try their skewers. We proceeded to follow up with the 2nd owner and inquire if we can cancel the order if it's not made yet since we're full and ready to leave. To our surprise, the skewers arrived and the owner was nice enough to tell us it's on the house due to the long wait. However, I didn't find the pork belly skewer to taste that great. We're happy with the level of service and apologies from both owners and we understand it's their first day of soft opening so there can be hiccups and we definitely appreciated the gesture from the owners for the wait. I will definitely be back as I genuinely enjoyed their noodles. read more

I got the classic lanzhou hand pulled beef noodles which the staff brought out pretty quickly. the portion size is large and the broth is flavourful. If there's not enough chilli, you can always add more but it was seasoned nicely. Their BBQ skewers are something we would usually get with our noodles, as well as their chicken cartilage. read more

This place is really one giant disappointment. After seeing all those positive reviews from tiktoker it's proven to me either they are lying or have no idea what a good restaurant is. We had ordered fried noodle . Soup beef noodle and chicken cartilage. The pricing and portions to start are way off the lamb fried noodle that they charge 18.99 for had less than 1 skewer worth of lamb meat. The beef noodle the soup did not have that signature smell that lanzhou noodles have.. the cartilage portion was ridiculously small for 7.99 and the taste was sweet for some reason. And the noodle texture for the fried noodle was borderline uncooked type of chewiness. I would avoid this place. As food and price wise it is one of the worst I've ever seen read more

I'm a huge fan of hand pulled noodles so as soon as I saw this new one, we had to go try it. It's a very simple menu with only 10-12 items - some cold appetizers, a spicy beef and an assortment of noodles. You get to choose the type of noodle you want - everything from super thin and circular to super thick and wide. I went with the pictured classic Dan Dan noodles. Lots of veggies on top, and then the minced meat in the center. My only wish was that the noodles would be a bit more chewy (personal preference that they're a wee bit undercooked). Otherwise amazing flavour. Service was amazing. They were quite attentive. Some of the staff are new but they made sure you got the answers for your questions. It was a beautiful little shop with a modern touch. I would definitely go again! read more

Ive been to the Waterloo location many times but this is the first time I went to the one in Markham. The environment here is nicer than the one in Waterloo as you can actually see them making the noodles through a glass window in real time - dinner and a show! The service here was so good. Upon handing me napkins the server also gave me an elastic hair band! Ive never had service like this before and it was so memorable. Another server, when I turned to look at the picture on the wall, thought I was looking at her and acknowledged me immediately with no additional words on my part. This may be awkward for an introvert but I personally think its better than waving your hand around trying to catch servers attention. My friend really like thick noodles so we got the thicker versions today. Personally I believe thinner noodles go better with the soup noodle and thicker, flat ones go better with the dan dan. The stir fried noodles would go well with the thicker round noodles. I liked the lamb better but my friend like the pork skewer better. The lamb was cumin flavoured and the pork had a sweetness to it. The edamame was really good and I actually put some in the dan dan noodles to mix it. As expected, the noodles were both very oily. Its definitely not a place I would come back frequently due to fear of acne, however I have not found a better (fresher) hand pulled noodle place yet except for my own home - but that takes way too much effort to make . read more

Gol’s Lanzhou Noodle - Lamb Chow Mein - Noodles Near Me - Markham, Ontario

I've been wanting to visit Gol's ever since I heard about them as I always enjoy a good hand pulled noodle in soup Coming in on a Saturday at 6pm, I was pleasantly surprised by the warm hospitality of the staff - everyone was welcoming. The day we came, it was very cold, and the server was kind enough to give us the inside booth that was meant for 4 people (we were only a party of 2). It's nice to see the workers are able to speak perfect English as many hand pulled noodle restaurants I've visited, the workers weren't very strong with English. Don't worry though, they still have Cantonese/Mandarin speakers too. Their menu offers an extensive selection of soup noodles, as well as snacks and skewers. We opted to try the Traditional Lanzhou Hand Pulled Beef Noodle combo where you get a Tea Boil Egg with a choice of a side dish, and the lamb skewers (comes in 3). When picking the noodle, they have 9 different styles to choose from, so be sure to ask your server if you're unsure what to pick. The size of the large beef noodle was actually pretty big, and was enough to share between the two of us. Taste wise, it was flavourful, and the noodles were fresh. However, for me personally, I thought the noodle we picked (number 7), was a bit too soft, and as noodles eventually get soggy for being in soup for a period of time, it was definitely way too soft by the time I finished eating. The soup was flavourful, but maybe too salty in all honesty. Also, for the price of the combo (large $22.99), I hope thought the side dish portion was too small. I really enjoyed the lamb skewers as it was juicy, and had good spices mixed with it, but for the price point 8.99, they were each pretty small. However, despite some flaws I personally found, everything was still good overall. IG: Ayeween read more

Learned that this restaurant was recently opened. Glad that I joined the waiting list on Google before I arrived at the restaurant, the restaurant was full house and I was able to sit down right away. I ordered a large bowl of beef noodles. There was a variety selections of the type of noodles one desired as well as the level of spiciness. It came with a few slices of turnips and scallions. A pair of scissors was provided for the customers to cut the noodles. The broth tasted delicious. It was good! I also ordered chicken wings. The wings were very hot when they came which signified that they were cooked upon order. I loved the wings were crispy on the outside. The spice that sprinkled on the wings was slightly spicy. It did create the excitement in flavour. However, the size of the wings were very tiny. I also ordered scallops. There were two scallops for one ordered. I loved the way it was cooked with garlic, soy sauce and vermicelli. It tasted very good! read more

Located conveniently a few doors down from Claw & Kitty at First Markham Place, this hand-pulled noodle spot has garnered much attention from the York region community. Hand-pulled noodles made right in front of your eyes - when patrons enter the storefront they're greeted with friendly staff, smiling faces and glass view of the si fu's inside making delicious noodles. The menu is by no means extensive, however your customization of those items is totally up to you. You have a handful of dishes on the menu with a few sides to choose from. When choosing your dish, you have the choice of spice level, type of noodle cut (1 to 8; 1 being thin and long, 8 being a thick noodle) Our table ordered two of the N1's - traditional lanzhou hand pulled beef noodles, and two dry style dishes. one was mild spice with number 4 noodles (medium thickness) the other was extra spicy with a number 7 noodle - thicker-ish and two dan dan mians (dry style noodles with a thick sauce made with pork to mix) - both were mild spicy and we also got one side of the beef shank to share (A4) Don't let the color deceive you - it looks red and fiery but the spice is definitely conquerable. Our noodles arrived fairly quickly after placing our order, the broth was hot and the aroma was impeccable. I was intimidated at first from the appearance of the broth being red but I was pleased at the level of spice in the mild. The extra spicy was spicy, but I wasn't dying which was nice. otherwise would argue it wasn't spicy enough. The dandan mians were really flavorful as well - definitely a good twist on authentic hand-pulled noodles. The beef shank (a4) was surprisingly very light. I was expecting to feel heavy after eating this meal but it didn't last long. Overall great experience, would dine again. read more
