SushiStevie, it's called something like LA NOODLE SHOP. I'll let you know more as I find it...

Pasta lover, their web server is not currently reachable. For a new business I'd assume this is a temporary situation. :-)
In the meantime, here's their facebook page: www.facebook.com/LaNoodle1/

I should have posted more information, but I didn't even remember the name.
And I should have taken a pic with my phone, but I forgot to at the time :-)
Warby thanks for the followup.
Also they were cash only when I was there, as they hadn't gotten everything hooked up.
I'm not sure if they charged me the right price, but it was under $20 with tip.
On the table there was a small jar of a vinegar (brown and savory) and a small jar of chill pepper oil. The vinegar is good in the soup and my Chinese companions said that is the traditional way to have it.
I put the vinegar in my soup and I liked the savory and slightly sour taste imparted.
These spicy noodles dishes are a cuisine from the North-West part of the country.
I looked at the Facebook page. But it's not ramen ! :-)
My Chinese companions, one from Shanghai and one from the North-West region, say the soup was pretty good.
It's a chain restaurant, but this is the first one in Ottawa.
Warby, did you like it ? What's your review ?
My initial impression: somewhat like Pho, but stronger flavors, spicy, savory, sour (if you put in the vinegar).
I looked at the Facebook page . . . but it's not ramen ! :-)

Chinese friends say there is another noodle shop at 1121 Medowlands.
This one is Beijing style, dry noodles, with small side dishes of various meats and vegetables that you add in to the noodles one bite at a time.
I couldn't find it on google, all I have is this screenshot.
But it might be "Xiang Zi"

Francis, yup it's definitely XiangZi. It opened earlier this month. I haven't been yet (nor to La Noodle). Must get out more! :-)

It's very good. I made mine very spicy. Like Pho but stronger flavors. I made mine spicy and I was sweating :-)
