China Town Noodle Bar. Loved it. Huge menu and reasonably priced. Lots of Chinese people eating there which I considered a good sign. I tried pigs stomach, tofu and pickled mustard green soup followed by the best squid in chili and salt ever! You needrnt be that adventurous if you don't want as they do plent of mainstream stuff too.
It's definitely going to be a regular haunt for me.
This cheap as chips cafe has been a favourite haunt for Birmingham's many students for more than a decade. Ten years ago, I was one of them. But it's more than just a cut-price feeding station for those rich in time but poor in money. With a voluminous menu spanning several regions of China, as well as a handful of other Asian cuisines (not recommended), there's a reason it also attracts well-heeled shoppers and Chinese customers of all ages. And with most dishes coming in well shy of a tenner, it has long been one of my favourite places for lunch. Yet somehow life has come between me and my first neighbourhood-restaurant-love. Last weekend, after an absence of nearly five years, I returned to rekindle my affair with their Big Plate Rice.
Anytime I travel up to Birmingham this is where I always come to eat as it offers a good take-away service or eat in options.
When I get my meal to go I am happy as the portions you get are great for the price you pay. The prices are good as well compared to other places who are £1-£2 dearer.
Mum and daughter were always so friendly & accommodating to my fuzzy questions & needs.
I went up to Birmingham for a overnight stay in December & was saddened to hear that the family have decided to close the restaurant for good.
I was told when I come up I February they would no longer be there.
So coming back up yesterday, it got to my usual time & got hungry, so I walked round hoping they would be open but unfortunately it was completely closed with newspaper all over the windows.
It's the end of an era. But I wish them all the luck in the world.
This is the place to go if you just wanna have a quick lunch or dinner. Ordered ShanDong lamb noodle, really big portion by the look of it but mainly covered in soup, the actual amount of food was okay. Nice service and everything was served really quick.

Nice noodle bar. I had the spiciest “Level 18” noodle dish, wow pretty spicy lol! Really nice flavour, the chilli takes a little while to kick in but when it does it certainly slap you in the face! Really good! As for the rest of the dishes I felt they were pretty good but not as authentic as other Chinese restaurants I have been to in Oxford. Nice place to go if you want spicy noodles!
Fantastic food, our friends took us for authentic Chinese food and it did not disappoint! Great food, lovely staff and great value for money. Can't wait to go back.
Tasty roasted duck, well cooked and rich in rice.
The location might be better but absolutely I will come back to taste other chinese specialities.
One of the most popular noodle bars in Chinese district. Authentic cuisine and staff. Huge portion of noodle soup. There are some other less crowed, same quality and more inexpensive noodle bars nearby.
Delicious food and friendly service, very cheap for the quality and amount. Try the satay duck and the steamed pork buns.
Good meals, quick friendly service and reasonable price. Real "Chinese" foods I can find so far in Birmingham.
Real authentic chinese Food. Good Quality. A lot chinese people eat here and that's the best sign for real chinese Food. Fair Prices!
Very nice staff, but you have to know what you're buying. Big plates. I would recommend to try Tom yum soup.
