Mei in Erlangen

Very tasty food. Be sure to try the dumplings! The service is super friendly. Ambience: It's small but nice. You can see that it was once a butcher's shop/sausage counter.

I am more than thrilled! I've never eaten Chinese so well. When you eat there, you know what it must taste like. It was so delicious. And the service was great, such a nice & funny couple, you feel like you're at home. Just great. Thanks for the great evening. PS: my husband's cold is almost gone 😄

We happened to eat there yesterday after a performance. The food is very authentic (especially the xiao zi and bao zi reminded us of Shanghai), fresh, tasty - plus great drinks and very friendly service ☺️ The children were also welcomed and entertained in a very friendly manner. Thank you for the lovely evening!

Unfortunately, the young lady in service didn't understand that I said "take away" three times and also paid for the obligatory bag - she served everything on plates and then simply poured the food into the take away containers. But the taste of the food was very good, which is why the shop deserves a "second chance" and I will definitely take something with me again.

After eating, my friends and I took turns having diarrhea.

I recently visited this small eatery, tucked away in a quiet corner of the city, and it turned out to be a hidden gem. The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the noodles and yummy dumplings – they were simply superb! Cooked to perfection, they had the ideal texture: soft yet firm with just the right amount of chewiness. The flavor was rich and savory, bursting with a delightful mix of spices and seasonings that kept me wanting more with each bite. And the best part is customer service. They were super friendly, and it felt like we were among a circle of family friends. ❤️ This spot is a must-visit!

This is hands down the best Chinese food I’ve ever had.

Very tasty, authentic and homemade dishes. Plus a loving service. We always eat here when we are in Erlangen. The homemade noodles and dumplings are highly recommended.

Great food! Everything tastes really great! Super nice, friendly service!

The food is very good (authentic compared to other restaurants) and the people are also very friendly - just like it is in China! The delicacies are worth trying. Atmosphere is like home. The restaurant is worth trying.

Food and service great. Ambience, well 😅. It was even taken over by catering :). Would like to do some remodeling. Prices are rather high but the food is delicious.

The food is great, Biang Biang noodles like we've only gotten in China before. One star deducted because the ambience inside is not particularly inviting.

Very authentic and very tasty cuisine. Very nice and friendly service, who was happy to advise us on the menu. We were absolutely thrilled!

Very tasty handmade dumplings and noodles! Also great service from the boss :) full recommendation!

Super authentic JiaoZi and BaoZi! Everything was very tasty and absolutely friendly staff.

A very authentic Chinese restaurant with a warm boss. The recommendations from the house were always top. Always my pleasure!

Six of us had lunch at Mei's today. She put together a large table outside for us and was overall very warm and nice. We ordered a lot of different dishes, both vegan and with meat (jiaozi, baozi, noodles, cucumber salad, tang yuan). Everything came to the table quickly and was delicious! You can taste that everything is homemade. I have rarely eaten such good, authentic Chinese food in Germany. We'll definitely be back!!

Simply super delicious food with very friendly service. Highly recommended. Probably the best meal this year. On sunny days you can make yourself comfortable outside with quiet traffic.

Wonderful restaurant with absolutely fantastic traditional dishes and wonderful owners and staff! Highly recommended!!

Ying is a very accommodating and professional host. The food tastes wonderful. We had glass noodle salad, noodles with beef and BiangBiang sauce, Xia Jiao, Drool-worthy chicken and for dessert Tang Yuan "black sesame" and Ma Shu Bing Qi Ling "dragon fruit + caramel". All highly recommended! We felt very welcome and will come back!

The owners are really friendly, the drinks and food are very tasty. I recommend Mei ❤️

We stopped for lunch while passing through because of the good reviews. 5 adults and 3 children. Very authentic food, but the children lacked enthusiasm for the food. Different types of dumplings are recommended; we would advise against pasta dishes. The boss recommended a mixture of dishes, which would definitely be discouraged by all visitors. Crisp bill of 160€ 😉

My family and I had the boss put together various dishes for us and everything was perfect 😋 I've never had such good dumplings and noodles, the sauces were a dream... next time I'll definitely try the soup, Thank you very much for this taste experience!!!

My husband and I ordered ice tea for the drinks, and it's amazingly refreshing. It doesn't look like ice tea though, does it? We then had shrimps shumay and noodles (I requested to put extra spicy for my noodles lol). The foods are tasty! I wish my stomach is bigger than my eyes so I could order some more. The highlight of the menu is the mochi ice cream! Coconut mochi ice cream is my favorite 😍 We are satisfied with everything; services and foods. The lady is very sweet and helpful.

Finally authentic Chinese cuisine in Franconia! There are no mixed dishes from Asia, only from China. For me it was 100% worth making the extra trip to Erlangen. Everything was done with heart. The dumplings are not frozen dumplings and are all homemade. The employees are extremely friendly and really have a lot of love. ☺️ would love to go to Erlangen again.

authentic Chinese food with very nice people :) recommended! Everything was super delicious 😊

Very tasty noodle soups that you can put together as you like. The staff is really warm and hard working. You can feel the enthusiasm for cooking and for the guests

Super delicious food, very authentic cuisine is rarely found outside of China! Very warm owner. We'd love to come back ❤️

Amazing hand made dumplings and noodles. I am not a foodie but this place makes me understand how food can change your mood. I love the fluffy steamed buns. The vegetarian options are full of flavor. Taking a bite is my happy place.

Delicious, I feel like home here Sehr gutes Essen

Very authentic Chinese food, nice service, but the high chairs are a bit wobbly

Super friendly staff and really delicious food. Will definitely come again :-)

Incredibly good and freshly homemade food. Dumplings very good but also the noodles. Definitely worth visiting. Definitely one more time

Authentic dishes, great dumplings in a variety of variations, warm hosts. We'd love to come back to try the noodle soups! Only the selection of drinks could be improved a bit & the menu could be renewed ;-) and longer opening times would be welcome...

One of the most flavorful dishes I had in Erlangen! It was my first time here, so I asked the staff for recommendations. They were extremely helpful and friendly explaining the menu and giving me some of their favourite dishes. I had an appetizer of pork Bao-Zi, which were fluffy, moist and packed with flavor. For noodles, I had Biang noodles with pork, which was as I hoped. The noodles, which are homemade, were chewy and can hold the flavor of the sauce. The only small thing from my visit is the Ice-tea, which from my preference was a bit too sweet. But this is very personal, but keep it in mind Overall, I will visit again for sure! And try more things, which I saw were more "adventures".

Best homemade Chinese kitchen in the area Dumplings variations are good The owner was friendly & gave us some tips for choosing dishes They’re also flexible to make the portion fit our grou Foods : AWESOME Really recommended

Sweet little family-run spot with delicious homemade Chinese Noodles and more. The biangbiang noodles are the best! The biangbiang sauce is very spicy and my husband loves it. It's hard to find truly spicy dishes here. I've had the peanut, coconut curry and light Suppe (similar to a chicken noodle soup) with noodles and they are all SO GOOD!!

Delicious dumplings and handmade noodles! Excellent, friendly service! Look forward to coming back!

Great authentic food and very nice operators.

We received a very friendly welcome, the food was extremely tasty and beautifully prepared. We also recommend the surprise iced tea. We would love to come here again

A great restaurant with excellent service and wonderful food. The food is very authentic and I would recommend trying the Biang Biang noodles and their dumplings. I look forward to visiting them again!

We ate here today and are simply thrilled 🤩 This definitely won't be our last visit. Really delicious and everyone is super nice!

I am completely thrilled! The biang biang noodles were extremely well prepared, al dente and flavorful, the sauce was a flavor explosion and the vegetables and beef were very tasty and of very good quality. You can put together your own pasta dish and choose between different sauces and protein sources, including vegetarian and vegan options. There are also dumplings and other very authentic delicacies, I will definitely come back when I'm in town. The service was attentive, quick and very friendly and warm. I recommend the store without reservation! ***Edit: please bring cash!***

We were there spontaneously yesterday at 11:00 a.m. and received a very warm welcome. We were advised by the owner when choosing the food and we all ended up with very tasty drinks and food. Most of the dishes labeled as vegetarian are already vegan or very easy to veganize. We were thrilled and would love to come back.

We were there spontaneously for the first time today and were immediately greeted in a very friendly manner. We were very impressed with the food and will definitely come back. The boss was very courteous and attentive and was able to anticipate our every wish.

We've been there for dinner many times and really enjoy going there for dumplings and noodles. Now we were able to spend an incredibly great evening at Chinese New York with a 4-course menu, lovely service and live entertainment. That was incredibly great! The food was wonderful and the hostess and her family are really super nice! That was a great evening! :)

Fresh and good food. The people are very nice and helpful. I will gladly come again.

Delicious, especially the tripe and beef.

Food, service, ambience were great and very good advice for those who didn't eat there. Gladly again!!

One of the best restaurants in Erlangen. The food was excellent and the service was very nice and accommodating. The option to order surprise iced teas or choose different flavors from the dessert selection was great. Gladly again

Super delicious food! Very cozy atmosphere and very nice people.

Mega Mega everything was awesome

A small and authentic asian restaurant. The Biang Biang sauce was just a little too spicy for me.

Really tasty dumpling , nice owner and team, a real highlight. Should actually keep it secret.

Absolutely recommended, authentic, delicious food, warm, open service!

Tonight we had the bao zi, cucumber salad, chao shou, chicken feet and the biang biang noodles with tofu and biang biang sauce. Everything was very good but I was particularly impressed by the homemade BiangBiang noodles! However, my absolute highlight were the bao zi! They were incredibly fluffy and fresh and the filling (vegetarian) went perfectly with them. Dipped or as they are they are a pleasure!!! The chicken feet were very seasoned and also impressed me with their taste! The two ladies who welcomed us today couldn't have been friendlier and more attentive. You can immediately see how proud they are (rightly) of their small restaurant with all its authenticity and craftsmanship. Overall, our experience today was very good and definitely worth several more visits!

The food was delicious, despite being allergic to sesame we were able to find something. My friend who is from Taiwan obviously has higher expectations, but he was able to enjoy local food. However, it was a little more expensive than expected.

Sehr leckeres Essen. Sehr netter Service. Empfehlung!

Sooo authentisch und sooo lecker 😍 die handgemachten Nudeln sind wirklich ein Traum. Die Besitzerin und allgemein der Service ist extrem zuvorkommend und super super nett, man fühlt sich direkt wohl. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Das Essen ist dort sehr authentisch und sehr lecker. Es gibt Gerichte, die bei dem mittlerweile fast standardmäßigen Asia Restaurants nicht vorhanden sind, wie zum Beispiel Schweineohren oder Schweinefüße. Sehr lecker sind die hausgemachte Nudeln. Man wird sehr freundlich bedient und fühlt sich einfach willkommen.

Für Liebhaber einer authentischen ,traditionellen chinesischen Küche wirklich sehr zu empfehlen .Vor allem auch die diversen handgemachten Spezialitäten. Die etwas nüchtern wirkende Atmosphäre des Restaurants wird bei weitem wieder wettgemacht durch die schmackhaften Speisen , fernöstlichen Küchendüfte und das überaus freundliche Personal.

Authentic homemade asian food. The owners are really friendly and they would interact with the customers and gladly give their suggestions. Authentic and really good, they make everything they serve in house.

Unfassbar nette Bedienung, extrem leckeres Essen. Alles ist selbst gemacht, auch die Nudeln.

Lovely restaurant exceeded expectations with its excellent food and top-notch service. The dumplings were exquisite, showcasing mastery of traditional recipes. The person in charge shared tips for ordering and provided a discount coupon for the next order, which was truly awesome. A must-visit for dumpling enthusiasts seeking a delightful combination of culinary expertise and outstanding service.Highly recommended!!

Die Biang-Biang-Nudeln mit gleichnamiger Soße sind angenehm scharf, die Kutteln sehr lecker.

Echt eine traditionelle Laden . Hammer 👍🏼

Fantastisches und Authentisches Chinesisches Essen 😍 super lecker und die Inhaberin strahlt so sehr, dass man sich absolut willkommen fühlt 😊

Wir sind aufgrund der sehr guten Bewertungen gekommen, leider waren wir recht enttäuscht: Das Essen war ziemlich geschmacklos, es fehlte an Würze und Frische. Die Atmosphäre hat mehr Imbiss-Charakter für einen kurzen Aufenthalt. Die Preise dafür sind allerdings ziemlich hoch. Der Service war aber sehr freundlich. Karten-Zahlung ist aber nicht möglich, was wir als nicht standardmäßig empfinden.

Das beste chinesische Essen, das ich bis jetzt gegessen habe. Alles wird super frisch und schnell zubereitet. Die Bedienung ist sehr nett.

面条很难吃，放的配料很奇怪，完全不是所谓的biangbiang面，所有东西价格都很贵，不推荐！

Sehr gutes, authentisches Essen!

Sehr gute frische Lebensmittel prima Auswahl und der Service nicht zu topen

Das Essen ist köstlich und der Besitzer des Restaurants ist freundlich.

Authentische chinesische Küche in einer sehr guten Qualität. Alles wird selbst und frisch zubereitet. Sehr lecker und wir kommen gerne Wieder.

Wir kommen wieder! Echtes chinesisches Essen!

Ich bin aufgrund einer Empfehlung eines Bekannten auf dieses kleine chinesische Restaurant gestoßen, und wurde nicht enttäuscht. Die Atmosphäre erinnert an ein authentisches chinesisches Lokal, no-frills, was ich persönlich schätze. Es gibt eine vielfältige Auswahl an Dianxin; meine Wahl fiel auf ein Nudelgericht, da ich darauf neugierig gewesen war. Die Biang Biang Nudeln in Sauce schmeckten "original", und haben mich angenehm überrascht. Die Betreiberin war aufmerksam und freundlich. Sie gab hilfreiche Empfehlungen, und es entwickelte sich ein angenehmes Gespräch. Ich plane, beim nächsten Besuch einige Dianxin-Gerichte auszuprobieren, und kann diesen Imbiß ebenso weiterempfehlen.

Chefin top sehr aufmerksam; Biang-Biang-Nudeln ganz fantastisch. Ich komme wieder Chefin.

Von Anfang bis Ende einfach rundum ein toller Place to be! Essen selbstgemacht, frisch, schnell und sehr lecker. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis sehr sehr gut! Zur Bedienung bzw allen Mitarbeitern: Danke, dass wir bei euch essen durften, wir kommen bald wieder! Man wird nett und ausführlich beraten! Wir haben nichts zu bemängeln gehabt und würden es jeden ans Herz legen hier essen zu gehen.

Essen geschmacklich wirklich überragend! Und der Service mindestens ebenbürtig: die Bedienungen haben sich richtig freundlich um uns gekümmert und uns bei der Auswahl und Menge der Gerichte perfekt beraten. Zum Glück haben sie uns auch vom warmen Dessert überzeugt. Richtig guter Abschluss nach den Dumplings, die auch ein Traum waren.

Exzellente traditionelle, authentische chinesische Küche. Die Betonung liegt auf traditionell. Anders als die meisten anderen chinesischen Restaurants. Schmeckt super. Suppen, Gerichte oder zum selber zusammenstellen. Kann ich wirklich empfehlen. Die Inhaber sind sehr nett.

Delicious dishes and great quality, also good price! I was very well attended by the friendly employees 🤩😋

Sehr sehr leckeres Essen. Wir waren wirklich begeistert! :) nette Besitzerin und super süßer Laden. Ich komme auf jeden Fall bald wieder.

Sehr netter Service und leckeres Essen. Nicht unbedingt günstig, aber auch nicht ausgesprochen teuer. Wer einige neue Geschmäcker erleben will, die es beim China-Restaurant um die Ecke so nicht gibt, ist hier richtig!

Super leckeres Essen, sehr herzliche Bedienung. Vor allem die Biang Biang Nudeln sind zu empfehlen! Das Restaurant ist in einer früheren Metzgerei was man auch noch erkennt. Wer industrial urban charm mag, dem wird’s gefallen.

So ein herzlichen und lieben Empfang habe ich kaum erlebt. Und genauso hat das Essen geschmeckt. Ich werde aufjedenfall öfter kommen und kann es jedem nur empfehlen. Einzigartige Küche!

Bei Mei gibt es eine beeindruckende Auswahl an Spezialitäten, die ich bisher in keinem asiatischen Restaurant in der Umgebung gesehen habe. Die Frische des Essens und die Qualität sind spürbar und wird schnell serviert. Der freundliche Service bei Mei ist wirklich einzigartig. Man fühlt sich wie bei seiner Familie.

Mein absolutes Lieblingsrestaurant in Erlangen! Das Essen ist unglaublich lecker und es gibt viele vegetarische und vegane Gerichte.😍 Man wir sehr herzlich und freundliche bedient! Absolut empfehlenswert!

If you're considering dining at a Chinese restaurant, I would advise against choosing this particular establishment. During my visit, when attempting to pay with a credit card, the owner insisted on cash, which was inconvenient as I did not have any at the time. Additionally, the owner proposed accepting payment in RMB through WeChat or Alipay, which raised concerns about the LEGALITY of such transactions. Furthermore, a friend of mine asked if she could have some water added to her drink after finishing it. Surprisingly, the owner added an extra 2 euros to the bill for this service, which seemed unreasonable considering it was just tap water. In our experience, this was the most unpleasant Chinese restaurant we have ever encountered. The pricing of over 30 euros per person for this restaurant seems disproportionate to the quality of both the décor and the food.

Super leckere dumplings. Alles hausgemacht, authentisches essen.

Small restaurant with authentic chinese food.

Quite Little portion. Fried beef noodles but the ready-cooked (卤牛肉) beef was just lying on the noodles afterwards and taking a picnic there, insteading of participating in the frying process. Anyway, it suits most people's taste. But it is not how the fried noodles shall be . The fresh beef shall be fried together. in one word, it is not authentic or the cook is lazy to use fresh beef/ other meat. I have nothing more to say. But the service is nice and the lady has a good smile.

Sehr tolles Lokal, gutes Essen und freundliche Besitzerin! Achtung: keine Kartenzahlung möglich.

Essen, war köstlich. Vor allem das CHAO SHOU.

The food is delicious and the service is super friendly!

来德国这么多年了，第一次吃到这么地道的中国小吃。真的不敢相信，感觉就跟当初在国内一样，作为一个面食爱好者这里真的满足了我所有的奢望，宽面细面，生煎，卤味，凡所应有，无所不有，来到这儿就像到了自己家一样，老板娘热情大方，只要是中国人都会多给一点。而对于我，一大碗细面，铺上厚厚的一层牛肉，再来几勺热腾腾的花生酱，这是我最喜欢吃的，老板娘知道我爱吃辣，每次都会额外加点给我。如果其他朋友也喜欢吃面食，我是很推荐大家来这里的。

I just love this place! Hand made dumplings, noodles and desserts plus considerate and attentive service. Great options for me as a vegan 🥰 Xie xie!

Leider habe eine Lebensmittelvergiftung 🤢 bekommen…

Teigtaschen sind sehr gut; Nudeln sind nicht ganz so lecker; Nachtisch ist klasse. In einer ehemaligen Metzgerei u so sind die weißen Fliesen geblieben, also fast wie in China; Service ist zuvorkommend u gut; Preise sind eher höher;

Ich war heute mit meiner chinesischen Frau bei Euch das erste mal essen. und ich muss sagen es ist wirklich chinesische Küche so wie ich es aus China gewohnt bin. Einmaliges Erlebnis für den Gaumen. Das kann man nicht mit einem deuteschen Chinarestaurant vergleichen, absolut autentische sehr gut und mit viel Liebe und Arbeit zubereitete Gerichte

Schöner kleiner Asiate mit leckerem selbstgemachten Essen.
