The hand-torn noodles are worth upgrading to, but it’s the fragrant broth that makes the Taiwanese beef noodle soup a standout. If you’re not full, the beef rolls are some of the best anywhere. Read more
Great late evening bites place. The dan dan noodles and especially the beef roll were spectacular. Staff were friendly and service was quick, especially for the time of the night (10pm-ish).
Love the beef noodle soup , dan dan noodles , and leek empanadas . Get the hand pulled noodles . Didn’t love the xlb, skin is thick. The pancake scallion and pan fried dumplings weren’t crispy enough.
The beef roll was awesome and so was the pork and shrimp dumplings . The noodle soup was really good too if you get the handmade noodles .
The cafe is home to the Shandong-style beef roll , a massive, bronzed construction that commands its platter like two El Tepeyac burritos laid side by side. Read more
I was born in Shandong, and it doesn't get more authentic than this. The beef pancake rolls and noodles were fantastic... I've yet to find a place in NY that can compare.
"One dish has propelled 101 Noodle Express into prominence, the Shandong beef roll . Previously unseen in this country , that dish is now ubiquitous in [LA] Chinese restaurants ." -David Chang's Top 10 Read more
The beef roll is really good. We go pretty regularly. However we found a piece of cloth in it about halfway through and they wouldn't refund it. We still get the dumplings and beef noodle soup .
The beef roll is reason enough for this place to thrive. It's a pastry-like Chinese pancake rolled with sliced beef , sweet bean sauce, and a healthy dose of cilantro . Read more
Easily one of my favorite places. They definitely turned this place around from four years ago. Much cleaner and better kept. Service improved too!
The green chili/cilantro sauce stuff they had is really good. If they bottled it up and sold it I would buy it in bulk.
Had the beef roll just like everyone suggested. While good, I thought it was still overly hyped. Good value though. Easily feeds two for $9
If you get a noodle soup make sure to get hand torn noodles . It’s a great upgrade.
The service is great. Food is superb. Sweet and sour soup ,..no words!
I'm at a loss for words on the beef roll here, but like others, am tempted towards hyperbole. If you're ever organizing a big dinner in the SGV, fun to do this as the appetizer beforehand.
Pretty good selection of dumplings and hand-cut noodles . Their dumplings skins also seem to be handmade !
With 25 different types of dumplings , this Chinese spot is something different. And the famous Shandong-style beef roll , a burrito-like meal that’s massive, is just $6.75. Read more
Authentic Chinese noodles ! The place is really busy during regular dining hours, but it's open until 1 am, so it's a perfect noodles joint for late night hunger.
The best... Beef roll , lamb soup
CASH ONLY !!!! If your not familiar with the restraunt have them explain the dish to you. Wraps are the best....
Lei says: "Get the beef noodle soup (also pretty good pancake rolls and dumplings )."
Defn not for gluten free eaters! Get the beef roll and pan fried cake with bean sprouts
The beef roll is maybe a little sweet (too much hoisin ), but otherwise amazing!
Get the pork knuckle , but ask for it to be warmed. Enjoy with chili oil and black vinegar. Thank me later :)
Cash only . Beef rolls and hand torn noodle soup !

No nonsense, get in, get out, cash only establishment with good food!
Our pick for best potsticker in LA.
Don't get the xiaolongbao dumplings . But do get the beef noodle soup - ask for handmade noodles !
Beef rolls , dumplings , stir fry vegetables .
Beef roll is good. They use the meat from the beef shank. Most of their noodles don't have much taste. Pot stickers are bland. Just stick with the beef roll .
You HAVE TO order the BEEF ROLL !

Beef rolls are amazing. Noodles are filling.
Beef rolls and dumplings ! Yum! Hand torn noodles Ohh yes!
Yummy...and this location has Thai Tea + Boba . Sweeeeet action
My beef rolls seem to have more meat when I go later (past 10pm). Could be a total coincidence.
Of course...it's all about those beef roles that are the size of a burrito .
Beef roll is SO good.
These dumplings look and taste like they were made by a child. Golden ratio of skin to stuffing is way off
Beef rolls great, cucumber ok, dumplings ok
