Nice place with great service, the food was excellent! Patio was sunny even in October. Hidden gem for authentic Chinese food.
Memo. it’s a restaurant I usually visit when we live in British property west van, first Chinese restaurant that started in west van and expanded to Richmond I’ve heard and seen.
Pretty packed in off hours so that was a good sign. Just went to the beach so we were hungry. We have been to Xian before and was expecting authenticity. Noodles texture was well done and the menu seemed authentic as well. Vegetables was a tiny bit bland and the Rou Jia Mo could have been a little bigger. Looked like a family owned restaurant. Pricing is high but standard for Chinese food in Vancouver.
