Definitely come here for the food which is stunning. The hand pulled noodles are freshly made with a fantastic springy texture and good bite. The soup broth is clear and flavoursome. Portions are big so my husband and I could probably share a bowl with a veggie side. I had the Lanzhou noodles with beef brisket and pickled vegetables. There was rather more brisket than I could manage, and could’ve done with more pickled veg and less meat. The meat was meltingly soft though.
This was an unexpected find in busy touristy Oxford. The long queue was the clue to the possibility of good food and its popularity is justified.
Seating area is modern and bright. Not salubrious but fine for a quick and easy meal. Prices are reasonable. Service is brisk, efficient and friendly enough.- Food

🔹️Chongqing Zhajiang Chickpeas Noodle
The food here is great. The noodles are fresh, chewy, and cooked to perfection. Broth is rich and flavorful, and the beef slices are tender and well-seasoned. It’s a simple menu, but everything tastes amazing (at least the two dishes we tried 😅)
What really stood out to me is how close the flavors are to the real deal. Several of my Chinese friends that ate here before say it's one of the most authentic Lanzhou-style noodle spots they've found outside of China.
Service: You collect your own food if you're seating dowstairs, however if you're seating upstairs, they will bring it up to you.- Meal type

Best hand pulled noodles I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a few). I got the beef short rib, holy moly. Melt in your mouth beef. Great portion sizes too. Definitely coming back!

Authentic Chinese noodles. Thickness of the noodles is perfect, and you get to decide how much chilli oil to add, perfect for spicy food lovers like myself. Very efficient service as you go to the counter to place your order. You will be given a device that beeps when your food is ready, so you can collect it from the counter. This is exactly the type of service that I am looking for: order, pay, eat, and leave. No unnecessary waiting in between.
Several reviews mention the portion being quite big. For me, it is just about right. Very fulfilling meal. Will definitely return.
Bear in mind that most of the tables on the ground floor are designed for two people, so if the restaurant is crowded or if you have a bigger group you may consider going upstairs.- Meal type

Recommend vegetarian chongqing thin noodles or the garlic chilli oil ramen. They also usually have nice salad options - potato, tofu and the peanuts are nice.

What a fantastic hidden GEM!
Today I had stumbled across this tucked away restaurant found down St Michael Street. Food was absolutely delicious and I didn’t have to wait any longer than 10 minutes.
Portion sizes were absolutely huge for the asking price and it was so fresh well as being gorgeously crafted.
Service was friendly but you had to collect your own food.
You was notified through a device that beeped and buzzed.
Overall fantastic and I cannot wait to come back.- Meal type

Probably the best noodles I've had in Oxford. I had the beef brisket with pickled cabbage. Noodles were hand stretched and really tasty. The broth had a really good flavour and the beef was tender. Chilli and coriander on top gave it a nice heat. Cucumber salad also excellent. Good value and really friendly staff.

Ridiculously huge portions of hearty food. The noodles were perfect and the brisket was very tender. There’s seating upstairs (a lot quieter) and they bring the food up. Highly recommend.

2025/03 Delicious and authentic Chinese ramen! The broth was rich and flavorful, and the noodles had the perfect texture. It’s hard to find ramen this authentic, so it was a real treat. Definitely worth a visit for anyone craving a comforting bowl of noodles!

I went here today because someone recommended this place to me and I was so pleased with my meals here today. The Chongqing Thin Noodles were absolutely delicious (that was by the way quite spicy) as well as the Lanzhou Style Beef Ramen. The portions were quite large and the staff were also friendly too. Highly recommend this place and I will be back very soon.
