“The food is very good. Had the Peking duck which was excellent. Also good was the scallion pancake, green beans. The special house made garlic sauce is excellent. Service was slow and inattentive. The place was very loud making conversation difficult.“

“We visited this evening. Food was fantastic! I really enjoyed the soup dumplings! The staff was super courteous. I had brought in dessert (a cake) from outside and they were super nice about it. They even offered to refrigerate it for us! After dinner, they brought us fresh plates, forks and a knife. Despite being very busy they also don't rush you too much.“

“Can not say enough good things about this place. The food is always delicious and tastes fresh, and the service is always prompt and pleasant.
Their bartender, Erick, is on point. Amazing drinks, attentive, and you can tell he really cares about his customers.
Oh! And you have to try the dumplings! 😋“

“Nestled in a bustling shopping center alongside Honey Pig, Chin Xi'an Style Restaurant is a hidden gem that specializes in handpulled, numbing Szechuan noodles.
During our Saturday lunch visit, the restaurant was buzzing with activity. Limited seating means you might have to wait 5-10 minutes for a table during peak times, but trust me, it’s worth it. The atmosphere is casual yet vibrant, perfect for a quick meal.
We started with the 12 Hour Stewed Pork Hand Pulled Noodles and the Spicy Pork Noodles, alongside the “you pick 3” cold dishes: dried tofu skin, sweet heat cabbage, and shredded potatoes. We couldn’t resist adding a Spicy Cumin Beef Murger, served in a crisp baked flatbread.
The handpulled noodles were undeniably the highlight. Each strand was perfectly al dente, with just the right amount of chew. The stewed pork noodles stole the show—flavorful, tender, and the kind of comfort food that warms your soul. The spicy pork noodles were a bit of a letdown in comparison; while enjoyable, they lacked the bold flavor profile that made the stewed pork so memorable.
The cold dishes were a delightful accompaniment. The crunchy texture of the shredded potatoes and sweet heat cabbage provided a refreshing contrast to the chewy noodles. They added a nice touch of variety to our meal.
As for the Murger, it was decent. The cumin flavor was prominent and well-executed, making it a satisfying choice to round out our meal.
Overall, Chin Xi'an is an excellent spot for those craving authentic Szechuan flavors. The noodles are the star, and with a few tweaks to some dishes, this place could easily elevate itself to must-visit status. If you find yourself in Ellicott City, make sure to stop by for a taste of their handpulled noodles—you won’t regret it!
Vegetarian options: several vegetarian options
Parking: plenty of adjacent lot parking
Kid-friendliness: menu is somewhat friendly to kids as long as they like noodles
Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant can get a little cramped at peak hours for a wheelchair. No stairs present is a plus“

“Food was delicious and straightforward. The wait time wasn’t too long, especially since you can start eating as soon as they roll out the cart of steamed and baked dishes. Highly recommend their duck and beef lo mein. Make sure to get their steamed Crystal Shrimp and steamed pork buns!“

“We have been to Asian Palace several times and we've always enjoyed our visits.
Since the pandemic, business seems to be off and on a Saturday evening at about 7:00 p.m., Asian Palace deserve to be a good deal more busy than it actually was. No problem getting a table right away at all.
The Chinese entrees we ordered were plentiful tasty and reasonably priced. Service was super-prompt and solid. We did not get sushi on this visit and our overall bill was really quite reasonable particularly given the location.
Somehow I believe that if Asian Palace were to relocate to some place with better foot traffic or a better Street front, they would be appreciably busier.
Come and discover Asian Palace before they figure that out (Or, ald it would be tragic, before they close)“

“First-time customer- I got steamed pork dumplings and hot crispy chicken. The dumplings and sauce were so delicious that I ate all of them before eating my entree (which was good also!) The fortune cookie was still warm-- they must make it themselves! Comparing to other Chinese restaurants, the prices were great.“

“I love eastern carryout. I have ordered from them for at least 20 years. The food is Delicious and the staff are great. I think it's family owned. They remember your order and are famine with their customers. Even when I order over the phone they no who I am. They can recite my whole order. Great place“

“I really like their food. I have visited so many Chinese restaurants in my lifetime. Rice Express is the only place I will get Chinese food from. There entrées are well portioned, and they cook to perfection. I usually order their shrimp and broccoli with fried rice. I like my broccoli cooked soft, and it is so good. They use jumbo shrimp. Their egg rolls are crunchy and delicious.“

“Good bourbon chicken has been impossible to come by recently with the extinction of Bourbon street in the malls. I called at least 15 spots before finding Lucky Bamboo House who i was delighted to hear actually had spicy bourbon chicken. The taste was amazing and on par if not better than what i was hoping for with similarities to mall bourbon chicken that i was trying to replicate . The lo mein noodles were cooked perfectly and were full of flavor in each bite . Price was a bit high but the portion made it worth it. Will be back again and again . Highly recommend“

“It's not at all healthy for you, but when I'm at a mall or airport, I crave Panda Express. This one is in the mall's food court and serves all of their dishes, including the popular orange chicken. Get it with white rice. It's so good!“

“I ordered the Seafood Jaengban Chajang and Shrimp Kanpunggi to treat a young guest at home. He absolutely loved both dishes and said it was a completely new Chajangmyeon experience. I highly recommend these two dishes to anyone looking to impress guests with a delicious meal at home. Of course, the rest of the menu is excellent as well.“

“Good food. Quickly prepared. Tasty & savory. Cost effective. Big portions. Bunch of leftovers for next day. I recommend the fish with black beans sauce and the Singapore noodles. One negative is that they don't have as many green veggies in their dishes such as Chinese broccoli and yuchoi. But overall, good food and good price 👍“
