This was the first time I've had shianxi Chinese food and I was so impressed by how delicious the dishes are. We ordered the noodles in sizziling oil and cold noodles. I loved how bright the dishes were despite having an oil based sauce. The food was incredibly memorable. I can't wait to return to t...

I don't always leave comment, but had to do this time: I totally disagree with any 'non authentic' comment here.
I lived in Xi'an for more than 20 years and trust me, most of the food here are pretty authentic to me. I can't say they are exactly the same or taste just right, but definitely the best...

The waiter is very busy and understandably not so enthusiastic. However, some waiters obviously welcome some customers with smiles, and have a stiff attitude towards some customers, and they need to improve their cultivation. Some dishes are well done, and some dishes are of unstable level. If it we...

Never tried cuisine from the shaan xi province of China before. House made noodles were like pasta, but with asian and comforting flavors. Three in one biang biang noodles hit the spot. Would definitely go back again for the unique flavors. Place is small, but seems to be quite popular in the sunset...

Purely rating on the hand-cut noodles which was very tasty. The texture had the right amount of chewiness. The service is good. I saw some other tables order the bao stuffed with meat, we figured out later it was the "hambuger" on the menu. I couldn't figure out what some of the items on the men...

Braised meat sandwich: the taste is normal, not juicy
Stir-fried cabbage: unexpected taste is good
: The taste is very general, the face is not strong, the taste is also normal, it is better to copy the hand with red oil.
Oil copying hand: the best in the field, although not 100% authentic, but ...

I recently came here on a Thursday night with a friend. We were fortunate enough to be seated without a wait. While the restaurant did fill up, it was never overly filled as to require a wait to be seated.

We each ordered a single noodle dish:
Clear Noodle Soup with Sliced Beef: I had a craving ...

This is definitely different than most other Chinese restaurants in the city because it doesn't follow the normal Cantonese flavors. The food and service is pretty good. I like it because it adds great variety to the Chinese food already available in the sunset area.

The best Xi'an cuisine I had in the Bay Area. The place is a local favorite. Had an incredible bowl of spicy stewed noodles and cool sesame cucumbers. Jam packed full of flavor, this is place is a must. Friendly staff and ambiance is wonderful as well.

The food is good, but if you are going here in a party of 2 people, their strategy is to keep you waiting until there is an empty table for two. And they won't consider let you use the large table and just leave it for late large parties with more people, or just leave it empty. There are only 4 tab...

Serve a very northern region of chinese food - lots of spicy selections, meat and noodle focused! Tried 3 of their popular specialties - pita bread soaked in lamb. This was my favorite! It was really a clear lamb noodle soup! The pita bread were broken into little pieces - tasted more like gnocch...

Updated review April 8, 2017. Came here at 1:15p and restaurant closes at 2:30 p. We were literally told to go to another restaurant to get the hot dishes cause the specialize in the noodle and cold dishes. Translation, they don't want to cook those dishes so they can get you out of the restauran...

Service was fast but that also apparently means you need to eat fast too. The bill was placed on my table maybe 20 minutes after all the plates arrived and soon after that we were asked to pay and leave although we were not done. This might not be a good place for catching up with friends.
