    Came here for mifen, noodles are solid and prices are reasonable. The restaurant was rather empty on a Thursdays night. Parking is located in the back of the restaurant, the lot seemed small and limited.

    This place was on my social media for a while and I decided to give a try. I am a noodles person and i love noodles soup. This place offers different type of soup base and I tried the their most popular one which is the silk chicken soup with goji. The taste did not really surprise me. My friend also tried the deep fried potato and she really likes it. Overall this place is good to come if you're looking for cheaper noodles soup in the area.

    Super cool place with tons of rice noodle and other Sichuan-leaning/Chinese options on the menu! The inside makes you feel like you're in China and the workers seem very nice. Will come back again to try more dishes. The dan dan noodles were pretty authentic, and the rice noodle soups were tasty! Didn't love how the saliva chicken was mostly bones though.

    12/05/2021 Screeeeeeeech!! Had to stop and look at this again. This is a new restaurant in this spot. No cash accepted, credit or debit only. I like that. I saw duck on the menu and had to take a peek. Looks like a lot of different soups and stews. Perfect for this weather. White rice is a side order for $1.50. I took it to go but Dine-in is an option. The duck has the peppercorn and chilies but not as spicy as it sounds. The girl that helped me also pointed out the dish that was more popular was not as spicy as the first one I pointed at. Not sure if it was chicken or lamb because it did not have that gamey taste I like. It did have a ton of jalapeños for all you for addicts out there. Just see my photo of how many chilies are in this dish. I'm wondering how the Braised Bean Trotter would be any good. I would eat it with white rice. Lots of great stuff here for this chilly weather. Glad to see something new on this block to try.

    Hellokittynme ..

    I enjoyed my lunch here for several reasons... Kung pao chicken had sichuan peppercorns-nice mala flavor Nice lighting in dining room Checkout staff was nice and informative (I think he was trying to tell me they accept cash now) I do think the portions are a bit small but I don't think I could finish all that food if it were anymore. So, it just feels like you should get more food at that price but I dunno. I'll definitely be back to try other items.

    I am glad we came to try this new restaurant. Food tastes good (a little bit oily for me) and the service is good. A cute place for a quick comfort food experience.

    Outstanding taste every thing is amazing. The new item Sour spicy cold chicken appetizer is awesome. Lots of parking in front on the street and in the back parking lot. Very technical just scan QR code and order away!

    I got here at 8:10 and they close at 8:30 so they were doing 40% off all the individual entrees. I got the konjac duck and pork pepper. The konjac jelly was good but quite spicy. There wasn't many actual pieces of duck, mostly bones. The pork pepper was less spicy and average tasting, but no complaints. It was about $15 for these 2 dishes with the 40% off so its kind of pricey IMO. My friend got pork stew, which she described as "good enough" and the kungpao chicken which she didnt like much. I think its place is probably between a 2.5 and 3 stars for me. Will return....because it is next to my massage place...and try more dishes next time to further refine my review lol

    Miao sour noodle and dan dan noodle

    I love it!! This place is a must try if you love soup noodles. The server was very friendly. I ordered through the QR code on the table so it was quite convenient. The shop was well decorated, very cute interior design. Definitely will come back.

The cold noodles were refreshing and had a nice firm texture, making them a great starter. The qiao jiao beef stood out with its rich beef bone broth, and both the beef and radish were incredibly tender. The shredded potatoes with vinegar and chilies had a satisfying crunch and a nice kick without being overwhelming. One of my favorite dishes was the tea smoked pork ribs. They were fall-off-the-bone tender and the crispy garlic on top added a lot of flavor and texture. The kung pao chicken was another standout. The chicken pieces were meaty and the sauce had a sweet and savory flavor that actually reminded me of sweet and sour pork, which I really enjoyed.

I dont think they ever brought us spicy on the side but its okay since we had some spicy dishes as well. Mapo tofu was flavorful but very numbing. I couldnt even tell the lamb eas gamey because my mouth was numb. Which is good because i usually cant handle gameyness. Not really a fan or their taro dessert with the mochi. It was too liquidy for me. 3.5 stars

My sisters-in-law who live in the area highly recommended this spot when we were deciding on a Sunday dinner the night before we flew out. Among the four of us, we ordered: - Xiao Long Bao (soup dumplings) - Biang Biang Noodles: least numbing of the noodle dishes we ordered. If you LOVE carbs and not a lot of sauce, this one's for you! - Dandan noodles: this thin noodle dish is slightly more numbing than the Biang Biang noodles, but still bearable and tasty. - Chongqing Special Noodles: most numbing of the three! I had to pause eating this a few times as it was getting a little uncomfy! The noodles are side but thinner than the Biang Biang noodles. I liked that we ordered noodle dishes each with different noodle types, flavors, and spice levels. The Biang Biang noodles were respite from the Chongqing Special Noodles, while the Dandan noodles had the right amount of peanut flavor and "mala." We arrived 45 minutes before closing on a Sunday night (it was a holiday the next day though). We were surprised that there was still a line of people wait in for seats close to closing time! Thinking we weren't going to be seated, we decided to order for takeout. We ended up being the last party to be seated! The staff was kind to transfer our takeout orders as dine-in dishes! The staff had the right amount of customer service and attentiveness for a Chinese restaurant, if you know what I mean haha. For amazing noodle dishes, comfortable seating, and accommodating service, Chong Qing Special Noodles gets a solid five star rating!

    I'm so glad I found this authentic spot!…read more The service was excellent--we were seated right away. We ordered the Biang Biang Noodles, featuring hand-pulled noodles topped with savory ground pork and a rich tomato-based gravy. It was absolutely delicious and easily a 9/10. The Chongqing Dan Dan Noodles were just as impressive, with a rich, nutty sesame sauce that was flavorful and perfectly balanced, 9/10 according to my husband who enjoyed it. The prices are very reasonable for the quality, and the portions are generous. Highly recommended if looking for authentic, satisfying noodles!

We'd been talking about getting Chinese food, and he picked Xiang La Hui, his go-to spot for classic Sichuan. I'd never been before, and was more than happy to try a new spot in the SGV. We met up at noon and stayed until the restaurant wrapped up lunch service and gently pushed us out the door, sometime around 2:30. The space was nice, instantly recognizable as a Chinese restaurant in Alhambra. It was pretty quiet the whole time, a good place for a leisurely catch-up. Service was fast and polite, though the combination of QR code ordering and poor Verizon service was a bummer. I had to cross the dining room to take down the wifi password posted on the opposite wall. We ordered a sizable spread for two people: Chong Qing fried chicken, dan dan noodles, wontons with chili oil, and pea tips with garlic. Everything was delicious, most of all the Chong Qing fried chicken, crispy nibbly bits of breaded chicken stir-fried with green onion and hot pepper. I love dan dan noodles and wontons, and thought both were great, if not the best I've had in the area. The pea tips were lovely, bright green and not spicy, but abundantly flavorful. I'd love to come back to Xiang La Hui and try more of the menu. It seems like a restaurant that does everything well, and I'll keep it in mind whenever I'm craving Sichuan.

We grabbed a few items to share across eight people, and it was more than enough.

When we went, it was an evening on a Sunday night so it wasn't that full, but it was a warm night so the doors were open.

The food did take a while, but I can understand that when everything is being made fresh. Just know that if you're on a time crunch, this probably isn't the place for a quick meal. The gentleman who seated us and took our order was really nice, but after that, we pretty much felt forgotten about. Once the food arrived though, it was Good. Very flavorful, authentic Chinese food, and definitely worth trying. The atmosphere is loud and busy, no music, just the sound of a completely packed restaurant, so don't come expecting a quiet, relaxing dinner. Also, fair warning, some of these dishes are Spicy, and I mean actually spicy. If you love some heat, you'll probably love this place. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a try for the food. Lots of dishes to choose from. A good variety too of proteins, vegetables, noodles and Wonton soup.

I've been told by some of my colleagues that MILD spicy is still pretty spicy, so be warned. With that said, strongly recommend the dishes below. Lamb with Cumin 11/10 - My favorite dish here by far. Aromatic, flavorful, and the spices are just on point. Dan Dan Noodles 9/10 - Solid and consistently good. The sauce is properly seasoned and truly compliments the perfectly cooked noodles.
