Shaanxi Restaurant

Shaanxi Restaurant offers a flavorful dining experience with a warm and friendly atmosphere, thanks to the owner. The aromas of slow-cooked lamb soup waft through the air, enticing customers to try the tender and flavorful lamb. The biang biang noodles and pork with pancake remain popular dishes, with the pork pancake being a highlight. The Shaanxi pickled bun with lamb and noodle/veg broth is a unique and tasty option, although some customers noted that the dish had few pieces of lamb and mostly fat. The cold noodles with cucumber, bean sprouts, and tofu are simple yet satisfying. Recently, customers have praised the dumplings in sour broth, cold spicy noodles, cumin spiced Chinese burger, and dan dan noodles, highlighting the restaurant's variety. The restaurant has received positive feedback for its authentic food, including special items not found elsewhere in the GTA, like peppery soup (hu la tang). While the service can be inconsistent, with some customers receiving a warm welcome and attentive service, others have reported rude and unhelpful staff. The place has recently been renovated, giving it a fresh look. With good prices and a variety of dishes, Shaanxi Restaurant is a decent option for those looking to try Shaanxi cuisine. The big platter spicy chicken with hand-pulled noodles comes in a large portion and is highly recommended. Overall, the food is authentic and comforting, making it a go-to restaurant for many in Richmond Hill.
