Our story
A Lanzhou noodle shop on Preston Road
Noodle One opened in Frisco in October 2025 to serve the bowl that northwest China eats every day: beef noodle soup with noodles pulled by hand, to order.
In Lanzhou, beef noodle soup grew out of the city’s Hui Muslim community, and it has been a halal dish for more than a century. We cook in that tradition. There is no separate halal menu here, because everything on the menu is halal.
Around the soup we serve the food that belongs next to it: dumplings and xiao long bao, cumin lamb and beef, Xinjiang-style big plate chicken, home-style vegetables and milk tea.
The five standards of a Lanzhou bowl
Cooks in Lanzhou judge a bowl by five colors. It is the bar we hold every bowl to.
- 01Clear
A clear, long-simmered beef broth.
- 02White
Thin slices of white radish.
- 03Red
House chili oil on top.
- 04Green
Fresh cilantro and garlic shoots.
- 05Yellow
Hand-pulled noodles with a golden hue.
Our halal commitment
Everything on our menu is halal, and our meat is 100% zabiha.
