Great place to go to before a match at the Emirates. Very affordable and great food. The noodles are really good and would highly recommend. However, seating is limited. Service is fast to combat the limited seating.

I love this place! I get the hand pulled noodles with special sauce. The noodles are so tasty and fresh and the sauce is amazing. I get it on deliveroo and delivery never takes longer than 15 mins

Order food from this restaurant. All dishes were hyper greasy. The joke was receiving the noodles that does not look like in the menu picture with a "funny" sauce on the side as you can see in the picture: floating pork mince in a sea of …

My partner loves the noodles here. I like 豉油鸡 most. They all tastes very nice. We spent half an hour to be here and we will definitely come again. Of course there are online orders and take away, but I think the taste of noodles will be …

The noodles are out of this world. Truly hand-pulled, served with the softest chunks of beef you could imagine and a magic sauce that I'm still trying to decode so that I replicate it at home. If you think the dish is oily you don't understand this cuisine. It's mostly water/broth, and despite the look it's not greasy at all.

Not anywhere nearly as spicy as hoped. The potstickers and hand-pulled/torn noodles had great texture but the beef in the noodles was super-fatty and the price for the meal was a bit much. Glad I came but probably wouldn’t return.

3rd time coming here, feeling the quality is gradually reducing. Used to love the ‘Chinese burger’, but the buns are no longer as soft and chewy as before. Portion also seems to be slightly smaller. Munger Han near Euston is a better place for Xi’an food, although owner seems to be the same person...

Lovely place! If you are in the area it’s a must go.
Usually very busy on evenings and weekends. It’s not too big just a couples of tables but in my opinion that’s something that makes this place special.
Food it’s just amazing! After …

I was a bit disappointed by the quality of the food to be honest. The menu has a very nice range of traditional and speciality Xian province food. The food was very very oily and it did spoil the overall taste for me.

I tried this two dishes the beef burger and the chicken with ginger, both with really good flavours. The service was really good I definitely recommend it.

The hand-pulled noodles are excellent and not something you commonly find in London.

Very tasty food for great prices. Service was quick and staff were friendly.
The cold noodles were a surprise hit with everyone, great flavours and very refreshing in hot weather. Szechuan chilli oils gave it a lovely little numbing heat. …

So far the best and most authentic Xi'an food I've had in England. Highly recommend Xi'an cold noodles, pork burger and beef biangbiang noodle. Very tasty and the spicy smell is absolutely appetising. The only weakness is the place is too small and can be quite packed, especially when there's a game on.

Amazing tasty asian food without the difficult ordering process, super fast service and amazing flavours! My only fault would be the foods spicy which is absolutely fine however the venue lacks aircon! If only they had one that would make them 10* stars easy! Cant wait to go back!

Don't bother to get a take away from this place. My order of the pulled noodles was disappointing. They were just overcooked, stuck together and a bit mushy. The "sauce" just seemed like a reduced soy sauce with some bits floating in it... ????????????

So good! As a vegetarian I was not short on options. The surprise standout dish from our takeaway was the Xi'an Cold Noodles in traditional sauce. Look forward to dining-in one day.

Delicious food especially the beef bang bang noodles, that was my favourite. The noodles were perfect. The beef hand burger was average and a bit on the drier side. I also enjoyed the tofu and century egg. The restaurant itself is not that …

Had a really impressive meal here. Fantastic regional Chinese with an emphasis on spice (but plenty for people who can't handle too much chilli). The ginger chicken was insanely good and the noodles with gluten were also something special. …

We got the pork biang biang noodles and beef biang biang takeaway. Both were really good with lots of chili oil (yum!). The pork had tomato and egg, which gave it an even nicer savory taste.
You can taste how fresh the noodles are! I bet it would be even better if we ate there in person

Hands down some of the best Xi’an cuisine I’ve ever had outside of visiting Xi’an in of itself. Every single dish was amazing beyond any comparability. A must go if you like true and loveably done regional Chinese cuisine. 10/10

Really enjoyed my visit. The food was really tasty and very well spiced. I'm not usually if huge fan of Chinese food but this menu is pretty unique and I always like to try something new. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Spicy, delicious Chinese food served at really competitive spices. The pork dumplings were melt - in - the - mouth soft. Biang biang noodles were properly doused in chilli oil. The portions are really generous and they have a BYOB policy so don't forget to pick up beer from Coop nearby.

I have been eating here for years and I do not have the words to explain how good the food is here
It has redefined what Chinese food is for me i haven't eaten a chicken chow mein or a special fried rice for over 3 years thanks to these guys
Thanks for being original

Insanely good noodles. We had the Biang Biang Noodles, their signature cold noodles, fungus and cold spicy beef. Every dish was exceptional and I think this is one of the most authentic Chinese places in London.
