Finally getting to try some Xi'an cumin lamb noodles has been a long time coming and I'm so glad I chose to eat some here. It was exactly what I was hoping for - chewy noodles, strong flavor, and a powerful numbing spice that still, at medium, didn't overwhelm the ceiling of my spice tolerance.

My partner had the beef muscle instead of lamb, and it was shockingly tender. The hawberry hibiscus tea was also delicious and we had to grab one extra for the road.

My last meal would be the tofu custard, spicy lamb noodles, and cucumber salad from here 😩🤤

Bangerz. My favorite were the lamb dumplings

Tasty casual bites. But 30mins late on to-go orders - placed ahead online - is pretty inexcusable. Very clearly understaffed during peak dinner hours.

Honestly, Xi’an Famous Foods never disappoints. I got the N1 cumin lamb noodles — the smell alone had me hooked before I even took a bite. The hand-pulled noodles are wide, chewy, and so satisfying, and the lamb was tender with zero gamey taste. The cumin and chili oil combo is just addictive.

I also grabbed the B1 pork burger. The bun was crispy outside and fluffy inside, stuffed with juicy, flavorful pork. Every bite was messy in the best way possible. If you like more heat, the B2 cumin lamb burger packs a nice punch that’ll warm you right up.

I’m usually not great with spicy food, but here the spice is balanced — it’s fragrant and flavorful, not just burn-your-mouth hot. A cold soda water on the side was the perfect match.

The place itself is simple, nothing fancy, but honestly that’s part of the charm. Prices are fair for NYC and the portions are super filling.

If you’re nearby, do yourself a favor: get a bowl of noodles and a burger. You’ll be thinking about it long after you leave.

Minimal wait time and absolutely worth it. The food is authentic and delicious. I was halfway through enjoying the pork zhajiang hand-ripped noodles when I had to order the cold skin noodles too. That dish became a popular street food where I grew up—back when I was around 8 or 9, down at the condo complex in Yancheng. The moment I tasted it, it brought back a vivid childhood memory, like that scene in Ratatouille when the critic is transported by a single bite. It was such a moving moment that I took the time to thank the chef for making my day. Highly recommend!
