About Xi'an Cuisine

Xi'an Cuisine offers a delightful experience with flavorful dishes and a variety of good prices. The Biang Biang noodles are a must-try, chewy and satisfying. From the Xi'an and Szechuan menus, the skewers are tender and juicy. The service is prompt, friendly, and excellent, with staff accommodating to diet restrictions and quick to refill drinks. The food is delicious and served in sizable portions. Top recommendations include the 大盘鸡 with noodles, Mapo tofu, and Cumin Lamb. Diners can ask to alter the spice level with every dish. The restaurant provides a chill spot on Clark St., giving diners a feel of truly being in Xi’an. It is a good Chinese spot in the city where many see themselves becoming a regular.

Recently, the place has gained praise for a dish that is described as possibly one of the best in 50 years, with a perfect crunch and flavor that blends sweet and spicy elements, offering full satisfaction. Visitors have also found it to be an unassuming spot, sharing a building with a sub shop, perfect for a quick meal before a concert or just a casual outing. The menu includes dishes like beef flatbread, crab rangoons, General Tso's chicken, braised beef and hand-stretched noodles soup, and house milk tea. The ingredients are noted to be of exceptional quality, with crispy crab rangoons filled with green onion and big pieces of krab, and the beef flatbread being a must-try for its tender meat and flavorful chewy flatbread. Chili crunch at the table is recommended to enhance the flatbread. The General Tso's chicken is praised for being crispy and flavorful, avoiding any funky textures. The veggie egg roll and fried rice are also well-liked. The braised beef noodles are described as mouth-watering, with tender meat, bok choy, and wood ear mushrooms in a mild yet flavorful broth, offering a comforting, healing feeling. The milk tea is good, though not the best. Visitors also recommend trying the mango shrimp and drumsticks ice cream. Overall, many express their intention to return, eager to try more items from the large menu.
