Omni Noodle Palace(Yonge Sheppard Centre) 东方宫兰州牛肉拉面

I was exploring the area during my visit, and decided to go in and try this place. It was around 4:30 pm on a weekday afternoon. There was momentarily no servers, and some kitchen staff was so nice to come out and help. Their English was limited but with my fairly low level of Mandarin, we could communicate well enough - he could give me recommendations what to eat and I took his advice. I wanted some more nourishing, so I ordered a chicken noodle soup. It was flavourful and the noodle had a great texture. It came with a generous amount of ginger scallion sauce to dip the chicken with. I also ordered some dumplings and they were not bad. While waiting for my food, a non Asian female customer ordered take away. She might be a bit frustrated with the limited English of the staff and started to get grumpy. Servers started showing up and the situation became eased. Prices were not too bad, and they offered 5% off if you could pay cash. Overall, I enjoyed my food and might come back if we visited Toronto and this area again.

The food is delicious. You're also able to see the fresh noodles being hand pulled in front of you which is a nice experience as well. Very comforting food and a good spot to come after exams as it's on York University campus.

Their bowl noodles are good and I liked my order but I prefer the place a little bit cleaner for restaurant. For instance the glasses for water that they serve at first could be more clean. At least nice to try them once 🍜🍲🍝

I was just craving a simple soup and was honestly full but I still enjoyed the unique flavours that this restaurant had to offer. We got the braised beef soup and the mushroom chicken soup and both tasted really really good! We also ordered lamb skewers and potato skewers on the side. Definitely adding this to my favourites list and hope to come back soon!

Came for some late friday night grub after a badminton session w/ friends. One of my friends is pakistani so this place was right up his alley because everything's halal. The soup base was hearty, beefy and very clean tasting (almost TOO clean tasting). The skewers were ok imo. Not the best I've had. Not the worst. Definitely middle of the pack average. The noodles are great. Very elastic, good firm bite. Prices were fair. Not the best hand-pulled noodles in Toronto but solid resto. My friend told me the owner used to be business partners w/ the original Omni Noodle location at Midland and Sheppard but they had a falling out and went their separate ways. They still share the same website though, which is hilarious. I haven't been back to the original location in a while but I've got this itchy memory that they have slightly bigger portions than this location.

Food was probably the only good thing about this place. The noodles were nicely pulled and the soup tasted pretty good. The service wasn't great, however. After placing our order online, by the time I had finished my food, we were still waiting on a dish. It was a cold chicken side dish. By the end since I was already finished my food, we decided to just pay and leave. The server still tried to charge us for the food and we had to make it clear we never received it. After that, he took it off. This place needs a better system and could really use some heating as it was stark cold inside the restaurant.

One of our favourite places in the city! And pleasantly surprised that the quality has improved. Fantastic flavours, large portions and overall great quality for a reasonable price. Our go to menu items are the beef clip buns, fried dumplings, stir fry noodles (chow mein) and noodle soup.

They are decently potion sized noodles for 1 person. The taste is just fine. I ordered their Lanzhou noodles which wasn’t as per expectations( from what I’ve had in the past) They seem overpriced a bit for what is being sold. I also had their condensed milk jelly , which was nice but again less condensed milk compared to grass jelly!
