Xi'an

This was a good Chinese restaurant, kind of small inside but there is seating. Service was typically meh but the food was great. We were a group of 4 so we tried a lot of items. We ordered sliced marinated beef, lamb soup, biang biang noodles, cumin lamb flatbread, cumin beef flatbread, lamb skewer, noodles with tomato and egg sauce. They were all 5/5 in my book. Flavor was all there. Dishes were savory and delish. Portions were just right, no complaints. Prices are fair. No we did not get any food poisoning.

I gave 5 stars but obviously I can only speak to what I had and the person I was with got the same thing as me. We got the (Dan Dan?) flat noodles with lamb. Hand pulled noodles right before you get served. Simply amazing. We also got the hambao (flat bread bun with ground lamb). Both were soooo good. I have lived in Taiwan and Thailand and San Francisco. Their noodles, are as good as any I have had, at this price point or any price for that matter. The person I was with though maybe not as picky about Chinese food as me said she had never had noodles that good (I think she was refering to Asian noodles only). Whatever, this place is as good as the social media hype.

The atmosphere was like you walk into Chinese culture! Staff greeting me as u walked in. And I was offered ice water or hot tea. I choose hot tea; I received the most robust, delightful, fragrant Jasmine tea. I knew it was Jasmine because I have the Jasmine Young living essential oil at home. Order: I had Biang Biang Noodle number 60, 3 Tapas and Cumin lamb Flatbread. The ingredients are vibrant and decedent. Noodles handmade and not over cooked. This restaurant also validates parking. The best Authentic Chinese food I've ever had. Being honest, growing up on Americanized Chinese food. I still can't get over the tea. I'll be back forever!!

Really good taste!!! No public restrooms, I ordered the pork potstickers, there is fresh spices inside, very good. Ordered #91 stir fried cold noodle with the beef. The beef is close to a roast beef texture sliced thinly. The noodles were a bit too floppy for my liking but honestly the flavor is there, maybe someone was training in the kitchen and left the noodles soaking too long.
