It was a little hard to find with the signage. The hot and sour dumpling soup was like nothing I ever had soo good. I didn't care for the cumin lamb noodles. I think it's because I'm not a huge fan of cumin. I keep trying it though, hahahThe cucumber was the showshopper for me. It wasn't like anywhere else. So refreshing so addicting. I wanted to drink it. I've been trying to recreate these at home and it suffices but I want to go back. I wish it were...
Nice food Shanxi style, good authenticity, had better though. Food is slightly americanized for less spiciness and perhaps added a little bit more sugar to smooth out tastes a bit, although you can add sauce if you want more, certain dishes are great on the looks, large portions and ample ingredients, but certain things are not quite there so it can be slightly dull on the taste buds. Friendly staff.
Fairly decent Shaanxi food, especially considering that Xi'an is 6900 miles away from LA. The soaked naan (羊肉泡饃) and Biang Biang noodles are definitely highlights. The owner suggested Big Plate Chicken, but to be honest that dish is fairly mediocre, and you can probably find better version of it in restaurants that specialized in Xinjiang/Uyghur cuisine. Stick to Xi'an/Shaanxi dishes and the experience would be great!
