    Dan dan noodles
    Chelsea Y.

    One of our favorite noodle spots. Hot pepper noodles have one of the best chili garlic flavors - definitely can taste the spice! The only fault is that the noodles can be a bit inconsistent. The last time we came they were incredibly thick and too doughy, but usually come out much thinner and cheaper which I prefer

    Leek purse with egg
    Faye Y.

    Food first, thoughts after... Wow really good! The flavors are delicious and the portion size is great! Everything was homemade so the dishes took some time. The dumplings were fried well but the skin was loose and would tear. Nothing wrong with that as it is easier access for sauce. The leek pocket with egg was not a favorite and took time to fry it to that degree. The noodles were great. Very feeling and packed full of flavor. A good solid spot.

    My family keeps on asking how I found this place, since we are not from around here, and I really do not know. Social media? Yelp? Not sure, but I was excited to come here and try the food. It was a thousand out of ten. We ordered so much, the server was in shock, but we reassured her we were taking most home. I also feel like I should comment on food waste. I am the leftover queen, and this amount of food supplied ten portions (meals) for us over time and was completely finished. I saw they had two locations, but I decided to try the Ypsilanti location. The people working here were very friendly and helpful. I basically ordered half of the appetizer section since there was so much delicious choices to try. I had the sticky rice shumai, roti with curry, spicy wantons, pan fried pork buns, chicken egg rolls, crispy pork lion roll, and Korean wings (not pictured since I got an additional carry-out for my kid). We also ordered Dan Dan noodles , pad Thai, and sesame chicken. The food was all so delicious. The Dan Dan noodles were the best I have had in a long time. I love that it was not too spicy, the egg was a great addition, and I do like cilantro. The sesame chicken was huge and so crispy. I liked the pad Thai, but my husband was a bit disappointed and felt it needed a little more spice or flavor. The portions were huge, which is how we got so many meals out of the food. I loved the spicy oil on the wantons. The pan fried bus were amazing, fluffy with a slight crisp. the Korean wings had a great flavor and I liked the shumai a lot. I love how chewy the roti was, the sauce could have been thicker, but I enjoyed the curry. Everything was so good, I am not sure what I liked the most. It was an adorable place with huge portions and good prices. I really hope to stop back in again, and yes, I will probably order a ton again to enjoy there as well as at home.

    Pork and onion dumplings
    Radhika R.

    I arrived at 5:30 on a Friday night and expected a wait, but was pleasantly surprised. We were seated promptly and service was very attentive . I heard how incredible this place was and was anxious to try Everything on the menu. We chose: rose boba, pork and onion dumplings, Dan Dan noodles and beef noodle soup. Everything g was good, but not really spectacular. The beef soup was standard with a bland broth. Dan Dan was delicious but noodles were a little cold, so sauce did not distribute evenly. The boba was a little too sweet. Dumplings were served hot and were home made with thick dough- excellent! I'll definitely return to try other items. Perhaps it was an off night.

    Returned on a cloudy day and the hand pulled beef noodle soup was perfect! My husband ordered the Laksa noodle soup and it also had good flavor (a decent amount of spicy but manageable). It does look pretty greasy though. Service is great and we left with leftovers! Portions are great along with the prices (about $30 for the both of us).

    Crystal Shrimp Dumplings. TASTY!
    Michael S.

    Stopped in for lunch on Saturday, 03/14/2026. I have had delicious hand pulled noodles before and I was eager to give this place a try. I was seated immediately at ~11.30am. Since this was my first time here, the waitress was kind enough to recommend their signature dish N1a Beef ($14). I selected the Knife Pulled Noodles. For an appetizer I chose the A16 Crystal Shrimp Dumpling ($6.25 for 4). The dumplings dipped in the sauce provided were TASTY and ENJOYABLE. The signature beef dish was simply beef, bok choy and the noodles. The broth was DELICIOUS, the noodles were SLURPING & LIP SMACKING GOOD! Total was $21.41 after tax. When I paid the bill shortly after noon, the place was getting crowded for lunch. A good sign!

    Had a nice dinner here with a colleague. Tried the pan-fried bao, shao long bao, and the shrimp/chicken dumplings. All were excellent.i tried the Malaysian Mee Goreng noodles and it was very good. The staff were really friendly and it was a nice atmosphere. The price point was great too. This rates a 4.5! I highly recommend dining here.

    R6. Laksa Coconut Soup w/ Seafood Bowl A1. Pork & Leek Dumpling C6 Spicy Woodear
    Linda I.

    Yum! Handpulled noodles. Says it all, really. I've tried several over the years, from the classic Beef Noodle soup, to an authentic Sichuan bowl, to most recently, the Laksa. For delivery, you'll get the noodles, broth, and any additional toppings (for me, bok choy) separately to keep the noodles fresh and from getting soggy. Great texture, great flavor, generous amount of seafood and bok choy! Big enough for two meals. Don't sleep on their dumplings, scallion pancakes, and other offerings in general. Best to go with an appetite! I love getting their wood ear mushrooms side as well, as I don't find that very often.

    N1. Sliced Beef Noodle Bowl
    Greg G.

    We were out and about in the Ann Arbor/Ypsi area and saw Lan City on Yelp! The reviews looked promising and I always love some hand pulled noodles in my life. This place did not disappoint. It is not your average Chinese American restaurant, so be prepared for something different. The restaurant is clean and definitely has a traditional vibe. The moment we walked in we were greeted by this amazingly eccentric woman, who ended up being our waitress. Her name is Jenny and she was awesome. We got an appetizer of soup dumplings xiao long bao. They were good, maybe not the best I have had, but hit the spot. My wife ordered the lo Mien not to be mistaken with lo mein. It is made with wide noodles and some veggies. This was saucy, savory and had big chunks of beef in it. Not your average bowl of noodles. My daughter and I both ordered braised beef noodle soup (La Mien). I got mine with the hand knife cut noodles and she got the thinner hand pulled noodles. Both bowls came with beef, bok choy and cilantro. Our waitress Jenny was awesome throughout the meal. She was like my Chinese Aunty I never knew I needed. She made me 3 different sauces for my noodles. She came and sat with us and explained all the ways to enjoy it. I took a few home to enjoy. Was this the greatest food I have ever had, no. Was this one of the best experiences I have had, YES! Jenny was so amazing and made this an awesome dining experience. Please do yourself a favor and go check out this spot and ask for Jenny. You will not be disappointed. I am giving this place a 5 stars because of the experience.

    N12. Dan Dan Sauce with Pork Noodle Bowl
    Nisha N.

    Quick service and a variety of food on the menu. We got the pork dumplings crispy and the meat was flavorful. The Dandan noodles were great, would recommend adding the chili oil provided on the side. The seafood dish came in a great creamy coconut soup. The portions were huge and two people could share one entree.

    Sesame chicken
    Jamie P.

    Jennifer was an amazing waitress! Everyone was so nice and the food was amazing. The sesame chicken was seriously the best our family of 4 ever had!! Not even joking. We also got the beef noodle soup, the broth was delicious and the noodles were delicious. I wish I could work for free and learn some recipes from them. We came into town from Colorado to drop our son off to college and saw on Yelp and wanted to try it. You seriously need to try this place!

    N3 w/ hand-cut noodles. Yum!

    Do they have any gluten free options for celiacs?

    Are GLuten Free Noodles available?

    Could someone indicate exactly which menu items are vegan or could easily be made so? Wondering especially about Singapore Noodles, Tomato Noodles, hot oil, etc. I get different answers from different servers. :/

    I was told that most dishes could be 'meat/egg free" if you asked for not to be cooked with meat.. but they didn't answer my question about the broth, but the noodles are egg-free.

    Do they offer vegan options? And where's their menu?

    Yes there is vegan option like the vegetable lo mien. You can check out the menu by looking at the picture posted or go to their website to check their menu.

    There are a few things that one should note right off the bat:…read more 1) Ypbor Yan moved buildings a couple of years ago, so old reviews that discus the interior space are very much outdated. 2) Their new sign reads Ypbor FM as they have a *F*ood *M*useum in the entry way, but the "museum" is both easy to overlook and certainly not the main draw of the business. 3) Look at the most popular dishes on Yelp and take many of the reviews with a few grains of salt. Why? This is a Sichuan restaurant, and while they may offer sweet and sour chicken, almond boneless chicken, and whatever other American-Chinese dishes you fancy, those in the know come for the distinctive numbing ma-la spice of the region. Southeast Michigan, being in the midwest, is generally lacking in really traditionally fiery foods. As such, Ypbor was such a delightful change of pace I was tempted to give the place five stars. However, that desire was really about the cuisine and not the execution. The food is good to be sure, I'm going to return again and again, but there are definitely elements that are lacking. While I do not want to linger on the negative, the noodles could be improved, the dan-dan was super wet and more like a soup, and while the salt miner's chicken was fine and I'm glad I tried it once, it's decidedly not a must order dish. That said, the Sichuan poached fish is great. I was also absolutely charmed by the Spicy Chinese Broccoli in a Wok, which while under the vegetable section contains a generous amount of sliced pork belly. Part of the charm was that this was not the "Chinese Broccoli" I was expecting. The broccoli itself was more like traditional broccoli, but white in color. Flavors, textures, and heat were all fantastic. The menu is long, and I'm looking forward to exploring more of it. Perhaps there is a way to make a 5* meal from the options, and nothing would make me happier than to share that with you all at some point down the road. Until then, I recommend checking out the newer, cleaner, friendlier Ypbor, and getting outside of your comfort zone with trying legit Sichuan foods. Just remember, everything is intended for family style eating, so one entree for every two people is plenty. Leftovers are fine, but this food is always better when it's freshly prepared, as opposed to traditional "Chinese Takeout" which some might argue was never really all that great in the first place.

    Hats off to the Ypsi food scene. There are plenty of good restaurants in Ypsi and Ypbor Yan is no…read moreexception. Phenomenal authentic Chinese cuisine; they have a Chinese-American menu too, but I highly recommend that you order off the authentic Chinese menu. I had a fantastic bowl of hot & sour soup along with pork in fish-fragrant sauce and stir-fried Chinese broccoli. The pork was outstanding and contrary to its name, fish-fragrant sauce does not contain any fish; it is a sweet, sour and spicy sauce which gives the sauce its name. And Chinese broccoli is one of my favorite veggies; or the greens were so vibrant. Great hot and sour soup and pot of hot tea too! This restaurant is so clean and welcoming! I am adding this establishment to my rotation and will return soon!
