    Cumin lamb chow mein
    Connie C.

    The food is meant for sharing especially if you have a big party of people. I feel like i definitely have had better and cheaper chinese food. This restaurant is definitely on the expensive side. Also, when we dined in there was no background music, so you can overhear other peoples conversations. Maybe consider adding some kind of music in the background.

    Spicy Diced Chicken
    Megan C.

    Overall: 5/5 Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Came in on a Friday evening with a party of 5 around 7:20 ish and left with full bellies and satisfied taste buds. Most of the tables were filled and we were quickly seated. The ordering process was very straightforward- scan a QR code and select the dishes you like. The staff were very accommodating and sweet :). Here are the dishes we ordered: roujiamo (signature and pork), big chicken plate with mixed noodles, combo appetizer of three, biang biang noodles, spicy diced chicken, and cumin lamb. The standout dishes for me were the big chicken plate with mixed noodles, cumin lamb, and combo appetizer of three (everything was really good regardless!) For the combo appetizer we chose the pigs ear, shredded potatoes, and beef tendon. They were well seasoned and delicious- generous portions too!! However, we were all blown away by the generous portion of the big plate chicken with mixed noodles ($27.99). It was HUGE and they do not skimp on the chicken, potatoes, or noodles. They make the noodles in house and the noodles are chewy, fresh, and soak up the delicious sauce well. The noodles are a must try here. The cumin lamb was also a wonderful surprise- not overpowering at all and well balanced flavors! No gamey taste from the lamb at all and the wok-hei is definitely there. Food was not too oily at all and I didn't leave with an overwhelming salty taste in my mouth at all despite eating such flavorful foods which was fantastic! All in all, I highly recommend Xian Kitchen for authentic food!! Super clean interior, great staff, great food, great parking. I will be back!!

    Noodles, hand made.

    Very friendly staff and super clean inside. It is a chain from California but the food is authentic, having been to Xian before. The pick 3 appetizer give you 3 options out of six and you pick it at the counter. I recommend the ones I had in the pictures because they were delicious. If you don't know how to eat something, ask. The mou (bread) that comes with the soup you have to tear it into small pieces and leave it in the soup. Eat the other stuff and let it soak. The noodle dish is their house made hand pulled noodle and the entire plate is one single strand. Ask for scissor. A nice change from your familiar Chinese cuisine.

    Cold appetizer: choose 3. Some sort of root (?), pig ear, tendon (hidden)
    Kristi P.

    New restaurant specializing in Northwestern Chinese cuisine and hand-pulled noodles. Cold appetizer: choose 3 from the case. Pig ear was a bit salty for some reason; tendon was good. I'm not sure what the 3rd one was--some sort of root (seemed almost potato-like). I liked this one too! They also had celery and tofu dish and cabbage dish. Cold noodles: 5/5 fresh rice noodles in mildly sweet chili oil (not spicy); especially refreshing on a hot day Braised beef noodles: nice chewy fresh hand-pulled noodles--seemingly 4ft long! Beef is tender, bell peppers and onion and tomato sauce. I'll be back to try more of the menu like the stir-fried noodles and pita bread soup! The place is clean, and service is friendly, but not attentive, which is fine with me.

    I drove by a few months ago and noticed a new noodle spot was opening. Xi'an-style noodles are one of my favorite types of restaurants, so I immediately added it to my list. This place did not disappoint. The photos I attached don't do the food justice. Everything we ordered was flavorful, and the service was incredibly fast. Ordering is done through a QR code, which made the process easy, and the food arrived shortly after we placed our order. The cold noodles were excellent with great flavor and texture, and the lamb noodle dish was equally tasty. Portions are quite large, so be careful not to over-order. The only item I wouldn't recommend is the Xi'an hamburger. It was surprisingly dry and bland compared to the noodle dishes. Overall, if you're craving hand-pulled noodles, this spot is definitely worth a visit. Great food, generous portions, and quick service.

    Biangbiang noodles
    Kim L.

    SO GOOD. All dishes were flavor bombs with different variations of chili seasoning. Biangbiang noodles were more on the garlicky side and the sesame cold noodle was closer to the chili oil flavor. The cumin beef was really tender and perfectly cooked. The portions here are on the large side which justifies the price. Come prepared to EAT.

    We came in for dinner for their soft opening. The place got busy after we arrived, so we lucked out. They have a QR code for you to place your food order in, which made it convenient. The only challenge was that a majority of the items were listed in Chinese and the pictures were not updated yet (I am assuming it will get updated soon). We ordered a few items to share - Cold Noodles, Braised Beef Noodle Soup, QiShan Noodle, Hometown style Rouburger, Hot Sour Cabbage, and jinggao (a sticky rice type dessert). The food came out pretty quick. I would say that most of the items ordered were well prepared and more unique dishes to me. The cold noodles were not your typical noodles. They were more of a translucent wheat starch Noodle type mixed well with like a chili oil type sauce. This seemed to be a popular dish among the people dining there. The braised beef noodle soup was good as both the noodles and soup were fresh. The Noodle Soup also had pieces of tofu in there and I think small pieces of potatoes. The Hot Sour Cabbage was a well prepared stir fried veggie dish. The QiShan noodles came with noodles on the side with the meat and sauce in another dish for you to mix together. Overall, it was a pleasant meal and I look forward to coming back again (hopefully they will get the menu and payment stuff updated)

    Beef Fried rice 2.5/5. Your typical fried rice
    Christina V.

    We got there close to noon and surprised it was full already. Seemed to only have roughly 12 tables so it can become quite a wait if arriving at a bad time. It was the noon rush as half the restaurant seemed to just had down waiting for food. If you're waiting to be sat, theres a notepad near the door where you "sign in" for the waitlist. We wrote it and just waited inside. They only had 2 workers that did everything up front and with that rush everything did seem a bit chaotic and unorganized. Food constantly coming out needing to be ran or people ordering take out and bagging them up. They seemed to prioritize ToGo orders as the handful of folks I saw got them pretty fast compared to dine in. Service will lack a bit during rush hour so keep that in mind. Once they seemed to catch a break and not so overwhlemed, they started cleaning tables that left. Got sat 30 mins after. Was able to see proper service after that. They did great for just 2 people but definitely need more support when it gets busy. Food was delicious! We got beef fried rice, braised beef noodle? and the special hot oil noodle woth pork and veggies. The menu via the QR code, only half the menu had photos, so with no other photos and description of food item, it was a bit challenging . Milpitas, CA has a location if you need to look them up to see photos of food items. Braised beef noodle was not the typical braised beef noodle im used to, unless i ordered the wrong item( didnt get reciept or checked ), but it was still good. I came mainly for the wide noodles in the hot oil noodle which was not a disappointment. Pork belly pieces with what seemed like diced potatoes, beansprout, Woodward and other veggies that complimented the sauce well. The noodles were pretty wide but they were so soft and delicious.

    Yang zhou fried rice

    This is a welcome addition to the restaurant scene here on the West side. With most Chinese restaurants catering to American Chinese food, Xian cuisine is different. You won't find General Tso's Chicken or other deep fried dishes covered in sweet sauce. You'll find pita bread "burger", big plate chicken noodles, braised beef with potato among other items. I tried the yang zhou fried rice, stir fried noodles with lamb, farmhouse pork stir fry and home style rou burger. Orders are placed via QR code and came fast. The pita bread was crisp and stuffed with pork. Delicious. Fried rice was on point. The noodles were soft and chewy with strong cumin overtones. The pork was cut in large chunks and covered in chopped dried peppers and chopped jalapeños. Everything was delicious and service was good. Will be back to explore more Xian cuisine.

    This is authentic Xi'an cuisine; if you enjoy Northern-style Chinese food, this is a great choice. The portion sizes are generous, too.

We came early on a Wednesday night and were the only ones here. What was good and bad? First let me say, we asked for help with ordering. The server couldn't understand why I was confused. I said I wanted the braised pork wide flat noodle and showed him the photo on Yelp. He told me to select stir-fry, then spicy pork flat noodle. I explained I didn't want spicy, he said it's not spicy then pushed the "less spicy" option. When the dish arrived, you could see the red peppers and it definitely was spicy! It was tasty but very spicy! My husband got the Mongolian beef which he said was good - he selected "no spicy". The only downside was it does not come with rice. Just Mongolian beef and lots of onions. We also ordered the bbq bao - do not order this - the dough was really "off" in both texture and flavor. I literally spit it out as did my husband. We'd come back but we'd be better prepared to order and we'd be way more cautious with what we order.

There are booths where you order food to come cooked, and then the hot pot tables where you order the ingredients and cook them yourself. It's very interactive, and they have plenty of meats, vegetables, tofu, dumplings and noodles. You can choose the broth you want at the beginning and they'll bring out the pot. Each pot is split in 2, so you order one regular broth and then a spicy broth. They also have a veggie broth, which I really enjoy. You can grab things from the salad bar, and they have different sauces/oils you can take and add to your soup. You're able to really customize the experience. It's a fun little experiment you get to do with your friends and family. The space itself is busy with customers walking around and staff brining drinks and food, but it's not crazy. We joke that the steam from the soup is a nice facial treatment. Lol. You can end the night with an ice cream cone and lollipop in the waiting room. I've been a few times, and I will say the first time is overwhelming with trying to figure out what to do, but after that you get more confident and interested in curating a soup that's to your taste.

Even though there were plenty of larger tables available, we were told we had to squeeze into a small dirty booth. The pink/red-haired male employee and the girl with glasses who seated us were rude as hell and acted like we were an inconvenience instead of paying customers. Their attitude alone made us decide to leave without ordering. We've enjoyed coming here for a long time, but this experience changed our minds. Management really needs to address the customer service from those two employees before more loyal customers walk out like we did.
