大碗山西刀削面 Knife Cut Noodle

Braised Pork Knife Cut Noodles

Fall-apart red-braised pork shoulder over hand-shaved noodles in a rich soy-and-spice broth — the definitive bowl at this restaurant

Tomato and Egg Knife Cut Noodles

A Northern Chinese home-cooking classic — tangy stewed tomato and silky egg in a light broth that lets the noodle texture shine

Tender braised beef slices in a chili-laced broth with enough heat to clear your sinuses but not so much it overwhelms the broth's depth

Dry-Tossed Knife Cut Noodles

Noodles tossed with chili oil, black vinegar, and savory sauce — a Shanxi staple that highlights the noodle's chewy texture without the distraction of broth

Lamb Noodles

Cumin-forward braised lamb over knife cut noodles — a Northern Chinese pairing that's rare to find done well outside specialist spots like this

Cold Appetizer Plates

Rotating selection of chilled marinated dishes — cucumber salad, wood ear mushrooms, and cold braised items — a necessary counter to the hot bowls
