Worth adding to your itinerary

“Braised Beef Noodles with Beef and Tendon compare meaty aroma with the supple richness of tendon in one bowl, while Strange-Flavor Noodles offer a numbing, tangy alternative. Together with the shop’s move and succession from Lao Song Beef Noodles, they reward a dedicated meal for beef-noodle enthusiasts.”

WHY VISIT

Why add it to your itinerary?

01
Compare beef and tendon in the same bowl

Large pieces of beef in the red-braised broth retain their fibers and meaty aroma, while the tendon is soft yet springy. This suits travelers who value the texture of toppings and want a solid meal.

02
A dry noodle option layered with numbness and tang

Strange-Flavor Noodles layer sesame sauce, Sichuan pepper, and tanginess, giving dry-noodle fans a main dish with personality inside a beef-noodle shop.

03
Freshly sliced Braised Side Dishes complete the noodle-shop experience

The shop retains a counter where Braised Side Dishes are sliced and warmed to order. Crisp pig ear and juice-holding tofu each show a different texture for diners who want to compare several small plates.

04
Strong recognition built from over 4,000 reviews

Google currently shows a rating of about 4.3 from 4,349 reviews, an easy popularity reference for first-time visitors.

THE STORY

The story behind this place

The handoff from Lao Song to Zhen Shan Mei

Mr. Song originally ran Lao Song Beef Noodles near the Air Force Combatant Command. The shop later moved to Anju Street and continued under the Zhen Shan Mei name. His son, the second generation, took over, linking the restaurant’s story both to the father’s noodle shop and to the new name adopted after the move, a concrete family succession story on Anju Street.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Eat the noodles hot to keep their bite

Eat the noodles while hot to appreciate how they carry the red-braised broth. They absorb soup and soften if left for long, so keep that change in mind if you prefer to eat slowly.

✨ AI QUICK TAKE

If you are looking for beef noodles near Liuzhangli (六張犁站), 老宋記真善美牛肉麵 (Lao Song Ji Zhen Shan Mei Beef Noodles) grew out of the long-running Lao Song Beef Noodles, carrying on under the Zhen Shan Mei name after moving to Anju Street and building more than twenty years of reputation. Braised Beef Noodles with Beef and Tendon deliver visual weight and fullness through large pieces of beef and soft, springy tendon. Strange-Flavor Noodles follow a bold side path of numbing spice, tang, and aroma, while Braised Side Dishes are the old companion found on nearly every table. The shop does not sell polished quiet; it serves a bowl that makes you look at the portion, then the price, and nod at its straightforward value.

UNCLE’S LINE: A shop like this does not write its sincerity on the menu. It drops the beef straight into the bowl and tells you to count for yourself.
INTERIOR AND DINING MOOD:This is a busy neighborhood noodle shop with close seating and quick turnover; lines and shared tables are ordinary at peak times. The counter keeps slicing Braised Side Dishes while the kitchen sends out noodles, forming the most honest backdrop to the meal. It suits one person eating until full or two or three people having a quick meal, but not anyone expecting service rituals and a long conversation.
LOCATION AND VISIT NOTES:The address is 台北市大安區安居街47號, about an 8-minute walk toward Anju Street from exit 1 of MRT Liuzhangli (六張犁站), along Heping East Road. Choices of Braised Side Dishes may thin out later in the day. Broth refills, hours, payment, and days off follow the shop’s latest notices and on-site rules.
● Braised Beef Noodles with Beef and Tendon

Large pieces of beef give the bowl immediate heft. The meat stays moist, with fibers and meaty aroma to bite into, while the tendon is braised soft without dissolving and retains its spring. The red-braised soup ties the two textures together. The first half of the bowl is exhilarating; in the second, the pressure of fullness begins to arrive. Light eaters need not prove anything. The beef gives no prizes for forcing yourself to finish.

UNCLE’S LINE: A shop that refills broth starts halfway to victory, but before asking whether you want more, ask your stomach rather than focusing only on “free.”

● Strange-Flavor Noodles

Sesame sauce, Sichuan pepper, and tanginess appear at the same time. The first bite may resist classification, but after mixing, the noodles become easier and easier to eat. Their personality is stronger than ordinary dry-mixed noodles. Fans of numbing aroma and tart heat may get hooked, while diners who avoid bold flavors may find them heavy. Two companions can split a bowl and alternate it with the red-braised soup for more variety.

● Braised Side Dishes

Pig ear retains its crunch, pressed tofu absorbs the braising liquid, and dried fish adds a trace of sweetness, giving a familiar plate of Braised Side Dishes several layers. It is a natural appetizer while waiting for noodles and a change of pace beside Strange-Flavor Noodles. Pick only a few: wanting the entire counter will make both the bill and your stomach remind you of reality.

Beef tendon texture:The tendon is braised until soft without falling apart, supple on the tongue while retaining a little bounce. It supplies an essential contrast in the beef-and-tendon bowl. Alternating tendon with beef remains satisfying longer than picking out all the tendon at once. Diners wary of richness can reset the palate with pickled mustard greens or plain broth.

Noodle performance:The noodles take a steady, easy-eating approach and hold the red-braised soup without stealing the lead from beef and tendon. Eat them hot after they arrive, because they absorb broth and soften over time. Letting the soup cool during a long photo session and then blaming the noodles would be a little unfair.
💡 A SMALL ORDERING NOTE

For the fullest first visit, choose Braised Beef Noodles with Beef and Tendon, then make a small plate of Braised Side Dishes from pig ear, pressed tofu, and dried fish. Two people can add Strange-Flavor Noodles and exchange tastes. If broth refills are still available, eat to the middle before deciding rather than filling your capacity plan as soon as you sit down.

  • LOCATION:台北市大安區安居街47號, about an 8-minute walk from exit 1 of 六張犁站.
  • BACKGROUND:Formerly Lao Song Beef Noodles, it continues on Anju Street under the Zhen Shan Mei name, with more than twenty years of reputation.
  • HIGHLIGHTS:Large pieces of beef, soft and springy tendon, red-braised broth, and generous value.
  • GOOD FOR:Nearby residents, students, office workers, and anyone who wants one bowl to deliver a genuinely filling meal.

📌 EDITOR’S SUMMARY

老宋記真善美牛肉麵 (Lao Song Ji Zhen Shan Mei Beef Noodles) keeps its priorities clear: the beef-and-tendon portion must be generous, the tendon soft with some spring, and Braised Side Dishes more than table filler. Strange-Flavor Noodles preserve a bolder path for regulars. The setting is plain and crowded at peak times, but when you want a solid bowl of beef noodles, those qualities feel like neighborhood routine.
