Popcorn chicken
Sandy C.

This review is just for the popcorn chicken! Came here on a Saturday afternoon during lunar new year weekend and order just the popcorn chicken, which came out pretty quickly, within 5 to 8 minutes. It tasted like it was just fried instead of it just sitting there. Super crispy, hot fresh and just the right amount of seasoning and heat. I was pretty surprised by the amount for 10 bucks. I would say this is a better deal than a lot of boba places, considering it also taste so good. If you're looking for a snack or popcorn chicken highly recommend coming here!

This is a quick and casual Chinese restaurant that's quite cozy. You order at the front cashier and they'll call your number to pick up. Rice isn't available, but you could go next door at Hodori to order steam rice for takeout. I tried the beef noodle soup, popcorn chicken, and fried chicken cutlet. You can between wide or thin noodles for the soup. I thought the broth was savory, a little salty, with tons of braised beef chunks and noodles. For the price you're paying, the bowl had so much food. I couldn't finish it. Both the chicken cutlet and popcorn chicken were tasty. Crunchy on the outside and tender inside. I would definitely go back and try a different type of noodle soup. Compared to the prices of restaurants nearby, this place was pretty reasonable. If you're looking for something quick, come try this eatery.

Dumplings and Beef Noodle Soup 牛腩面
Alice W.

Came in here for lunch during the weekend. My husband and I got the beef noodle soup and dumplings mostly for our toddler. The portion size was pretty great! We were able to feed our kid and share the beef noodle soup together. (We weren't that hungry.) for $25 for the soup and the dumplings wasnt bad. We thought the portion was pretty fair and the amount of noodle and beef were great. The soup felt a little light so we added vinegar. We prefer less salty though so didn't mind. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Self serve water (no ice). They had high chairs for kids. Overall, easy place to get a quick meal.

I've gotten the beef noodle soup several times across the years and it's been consistently great. The price is reasonable and portion size is generous. Would certainly recommend Qin West if you want traditional Chinese noodles and quick/convenient service.

I came here with my hubby and Coco our samoyed so we had to look for a place to eat with an outdoor patio. Well we are so glad we found this noodle place...

Guilin Soup, $14.95 prior to tax

Qin West Noodle is located in the promenade at The Shops at Arcadia. You can find Qin West Noodle across from 3 Cats and also from Cha Redefine. Qin West Noodle also has some outdoor seating, in which you can dine with you dog, like my husband and I did this past Sunday. Because The Shops at Arcadia are currently running a special promotion called Dine & Discover (where participating eateries and tea shops are providing discounts and/ or special items with your purchase), we ended up decided to come here for lunch. We arrived a little before 1 pm. My husband waited for a table outside while I went inside to order the following: Guilin Soup, $14.95 prior to tax- I ordered this for my husband to be mild in terms of spicy-ness. My husband didn't think it was spicy at all but he has been trying to consume less spicy foods. He liked the soup and thought it was flavorful. I didn't get to try any. He thought the meat was good but wished there was more. Zhajiang Noodle, $13.35 prior to tax- I didn't want a soup dish and went for a dry style noodle dish instead. I really liked this dish. It was very saucy with pork and flavors of tomato. I also really liked the sliced cucumbers. The noodles itself was really good and had a nice chew to it. The portion size of this dish was big enough for 2-3 people to share. --------------------------------- (Total= $20.64 after Dine & Discover Promotion of $5 off each dish above). Please note that the above total also included a 2.3% transaction fee. This is where I am rather disappointed and annoyed with my dining experience. I paid cash purposely to avoid the transaction fee but yet I was still charged. I did not realize this until way later, after I had already paid and ate my meal. It even says I paid cash on the receipt too... So if you do pay cash, you want to make sure you check that you are not charged the credit card fee. There is some limited seating inside but you may also be able to find a table in the Eat Alley or just around the promenade. Utensils, napkins, water, etc are all self serve. After you pay, you are given a number and you have to wait for your order (whether you ordered to go or for dine in. You can also ask for a plastic lid if you want to take your food home if you dined in).

beef noodle soup
Lucy M.

3.5/5 Zhajiang Noodles $14 a bit too salty. Has leftover meat, which meant great portion, but part of the reason was saltiness. Overall Qin West has some good deals here and there but the taste is rough around the edges ... you will be able to find a better of version of what they offer elsewhere. They are a no tips place so that can be refreshing. FYI extra charge for using credit card.

Assortment of dishes

Not sure if this is a hot take, but I genuinely enjoyed my visit here. I thought all the food tasted fresh, and all the items had a very fair price point. It's really hard to find noodles without a soup broth, so having noodles with vegetables on their own made me happy. The service was also super quick. The person taking our order helped my dad navigate all the non-spicy items on their menu. This place is located within the Santa Anita mall, and it was very clean inside. I would definitely go back again!

Beef Noodle Soup 牛腩面

Came here for the Dine & Discover promotion so they had $5 off their Beef Noodle soup which ended up being a great deal! At first the worker there didnt know how to apply the discount, but after the manager stepped in and was able to give us the deal. Service was quick, food was ready in about 5 minutes after ordering. Casual dining spot with indoor seating. Can be a little cleanlier. Portion was huge, came with tons of beef & noodle, free side of chili cucumbers, and a pink lemonade.Noodle texture had a nice bounce, left feeling very full and I had leftovers that I ate for my next meal. (4/5) Definitely worth it during the promotion and I believe I ended up paying ~$12 for the whole meal, which is so affordable in this economy. I was satisfied with this meal though standard (3.5/5) if there was no promo going around.

Popcorn Chicken盐酥鸡
Brigitte L.

Although I only tried their popcorn chicken, I was very satisfied and impressed with what we got! The container was HUGE and the chicken pieces were so juicy and hot! The price was also very reasonable. I also got a look at their menu and was reminded how affordable, quick, and delicious their noodles and other food are!

New sichuan style spicy sour noodle
Kristy H.

This place is always super crowded and the seating is hard to find, but the lunch special is pretty worth it. The pink lemonade that comes with the lunch special might be diet lemonade though, and the cucumbers could be marinated more. But the quality is worth the price!

Menu 2 - 5/2025

Came by here for dinner with the family and we ordered a couple dry noodles, and couple soup based noodles. Beef Noodle Soup Guilin Soup Dry Mix Noodle Chicken Cold Noodle Popcorn Chicken The noodle soups were pretty good, but the dry noodles were very salty for me personally. Popcorn chicken is good - but you can't really go wrong with fried chicken pieces. One thing to note is that you get extremely good value here. The portions are HUGE, they come in huge paper bowls. My teenaged boys are usually garbage disposals for food, but even they couldn't finish the noodles and we took everything home and enjoyed it again for lunch the next day. Don't expect nice decor here. There are a few tables inside and out, but there are bags of containers and lids throughout the dining area - apparently the dining area doubles as storage. You can help yourself to ice and weird tasting water from their old water machine by the cashier.

Food
Travis P.

For a noodle spot, I thought the food here was okay. I saw that they were advertising summer items only available during the summer so decided to give those a try. Chicken Cold Noodles - I thought this was pretty tasty but it also was very simple. It comes with chicken breasts and basically its cold noodles with chili and a few other ingredients. It's refreshing and overall I liked it. (4/5) Fried Chicken - This was new and the flavors were good but I also felt it was a tad lackluster. The chicken wasn't as juicy as I thought and because it comes with the whole thigh there are a lot of bones to go through. It's not something I'd get again personally. (2.5/5) Overall this spot is okay but it's not something I would crave. We had to wait about 20 minutes to get our food as well which was a lot longer than I expected.

You walk in thinking, "I'll just grab a quick bowl," and suddenly there's a noodle master stretching dough like he's training for the Olympics. Their Lanzhou-style noodles?

Plus, it gives you time to emotionally prepare for choosing your noodle shape. Thin? Wide? Triangle? This is not a decision to take lightly.

The pork sandwich bun was decent (4/5) since the beef was tasty but the sandwich bun could be better. We also had the traditional beef noodle soups with either the wide flat and triangle ones. You can't go wrong with these freshly made pulled noodles, and they are very hearty portions. Flavor is good and the beef is very tender. The smashed cucumbers were decent also (4/5), but nothing spectacular about them. Service is very quick, attentive and pleasant. This is a good go to spot for a quick meal. The dining room doesn't seat a lot of people so try not to come during busy dining hours on weekends to avoid a long wait.

The duck is around $28 for the whole duck, which is amazing in this economy. It's a small store so seating is limited. I've never personally dined in and always ordered takeout. And the boss lady that runs the front of the house? She is cool, sassy and a multi-tasking queen. You can tell she puts heart and pride into serving the customers and food. When placing the phone order, she will try to make sure that the food is ready when you arrive. And she will always say in mandarin in an almost scolding tone: "hurry up and go home and eat the food. It won't be as good if you wait to long to eat it! " Honestly...the scolding makes the food taste better.

XiAn Foodie 李老三 serves food that is not only delicious, but authentic and full of soul. The handmade noodles were impressive. perfectly chewy and springy, soaking up the rich sauce. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying! The lamb skewers, beef skewers, beef shank noodles, lamb & carrot dumplings, and oil-splashed noodles are all highly recommended. Everything was tender, aromatic, and clearly prepared with great care and attention to flavor and ingredients. Spice lovers will definitely be happy here, but even if you normally don't eat spicy food, you'll still find yourself going back for bite after bite. The restaurant itself is simple yet elegant, clean, and comfortable, with the warm feeling of a beloved local spot. The service is friendly, and the food comes out quickly, creating a relaxed and welcoming dining experience. Especially after a long day, having a hot bowl of their oil-splashed noodles feels genuinely comforting. If you enjoy unique Xi'an cuisine, I highly recommend giving this place a try. You can taste that the flavors have not been overly adjusted just to appeal to the masses. Instead, the restaurant preserves the authentic spirit, warmth, and bold flavors of traditional Xi'an cooking.

Overall, most of the dishes were solid. The only one I could have skipped was the chicken and potato dish...it just didn't stand out compared to everything else. I think this was the dish that we took leftovers since everyone else also felt a similar way regarding that dish. The skewers were well-cooked, but the cumin flavor was a bit overpowering for my taste, and it lingered longer than I would've liked. With that said, there were definitely some highlights. I really loved the shrimp fried rice and the beef dumplings, but my favorite was the wide noodle dish with mixed meats. It was incredibly flavorful and hit all the right notes. I actually ordered it after noticing another table enjoying the same dish. Honestly, their reactions said everything and it absolutely lived up to the expectation. The owner was warm and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. The restaurant itself is very clean, with bright lighting and a modern aesthetic that makes it feel inviting. Parking is also convenient, with plenty of space available in the back garage. All in all, it's a spot I'd recommend for anyone looking to try authentic flavors from the Xi'an region.
