I'm pretty sure their noodles were hand pulled, as they were very chewy (in a good way). The beef was also pretty good. There was some bok choy in there as well. Although I really enjoyed this dish, it wasn't exceptional enough to get to a full 5 star level. The restaurant gets very popular / busy during peak hours, but we were still able to get a table for dinner with no wait on a weekend night. There is a lively atmosphere and it was comfortable seating. Our waiter was friendly and the service speed was fast. Overall, I would highly recommend Xi'an BiangBiang Noodles if you are interested in some tasty authentic noodles.

(Was occasionally a tad difficult to flag down a server, but I enjoyed watching the cooks prepare dishes in front of me.) I ordered the (classic) tonkotsu ramen, which was really good. The noodles were authentically chewy, and the broth was very rich and savoury without being too heavy or oily. The sliced chashu was tender and juicy. Portion size was healthy and I think reasonable for the price point. I would be keen to come back to try some of their other dishes (the katsu curry looked very tasty). Would definitely recommend!

Great food and place overall!…read more Gyoza was good, slightly under-seasoned for my preference but juicy and crisp. I liked the Tonkotsu chili they have at the tables though to use! I've had a lot of ramen in my life and this one doesn't necessarily stand out but it's not subpar either. I really do appreciate that they offer a small size though so that way you can still get a good taste for the ramen but have room for other dishes on the menu! Curry was great and I was surprised at how much I liked the fried courgettes, I feel like most times they are too soggy but these were perfectly crunchy! Drinks were solid as well. Service was great -- not one dedicated server, everyone checked on us and were extremely polite. Atmosphere is laid back and casual, so its a nice spot to come in later in the evening for quick solid bites! Would come again! **they gave us complimentary sake when they found out when we were on our honeymoon! So sweet!

I've never seen so many variations in one place, and I've never seen so many temperature options. The difference between hot broth and cold sauce is pretty apparent. But I needed clarification about the udon itself. Hot udon means the noodles come served inside the broth whereas cold udon means it comes served sepatstely, and you're able to add it into the broth at your own pace and discretion. As someone who loves bouncy noodles, and hates basically all soggy food, I was amazed. Their broths are really flavorful and warm you up perfectly on the inside, the tempura is soo crispy, and the walnut miso is so addicting. Not to mention the servers are super friendly.

Everything at every table looked delicious, and the portions were generous but not over the top. We had the egg and seaweed soup -- good but wouldn't order again as the seaweed was very large and difficult to eat and a bit overpowering. The twice-cooked pork was great. A bit on the salty side and not as spicy as I anticipated, but full of flavor. We also ordered their version of kung-pow chicken, which was different than what I'm accustomed to and preferable. Good chunks of chicken, roasted peanuts and a tangy sauce. Be warned that like a lot of places here any rice will cost you extra, you won't just get white rice with your meal. Would definitely return here and try more if only I lived in London!

Finding properly spicy food in this country is a bit hit-or-miss to begin with, but to find really mouthwatering Szechuan cuisine (er... Sichuan?) has been a near impossibility until now. From the moment I walked into this modest-looking restaurant, I had a positive vibe. Whether it was the delicious scents wafting about, or the fact that the staff and various other patrons were speaking in Mandarin, I knew from the very start that I'd come to the right place. I'll be honest in saying that my least favourite dishes that we shared family-style (of course) were the ones recommended by the staff. Perhaps they were steering us toward things that Brits like more? But the fried potatoes were basically crispy Chinese french fries and the house dumplings, whilst they looked to be covered in delicious sauce, came out surprisingly flavourless to me. That said, everything else was superb. The smashed cucumbers went down a treat, the 'ants climbing a tree' (ma ee sang su) and mapo tofu both had that rich aromatic Szechuan peppercorn heat to them. And the twice-cooked pork dish served with steam buns is an absolute hunger slayer. Be prepared to order a couple bottles of Tsing Tao to balance out the heat in the dishes, but the mild tingling ma la sensation is a big part of the reason to come. I fully expect to work this into my regular rotation of dining destinations now that I know it's here!
