Delicious. Very clean dining room. Got the Hand ripped noodles and the thin spicy sesame noodles. Both were good but the sesame noodles had way more flavor. Also order spicier than you think, I got a level 5 spice and it was barely spicy. Braised beef was incredible, cucumber salad in chili oil incredible, egg and tomatoes incredible, dumplings incredible. Can't say enough good things about the food.

I got the Spicy Cumin Lamb Hand Ripped Noodles. The noodle was firm and springy, featured a good portion of lamb, and the sauce was savory and spicy. I got the medium spice and it was perfect, though a bit oily. I was also impressed by the length of the noodles because they were really long. The triple dumplings were also so delicious, the inside was juicy and flavorful, topped with more chilli oil. The automatic ordering was cool as well, and food came relatively fast. The pricing was also surprisingly affordable. Would definitely recommend to noodle lovers and spicy food enthusiasts.

Authentic and satisfying! It’s such a treat to find a place that serves real Xi’an food—hand-pulled noodles and lamb jiamo that are bold, spicy, and deeply seasoned. You can taste the freshness of the dough, and the chili oil has real flavor, not just heat. The lamb sandwich was juicy and fragrant, packed with green pepper and cumin. The interior is simple and functional, but even during the quiet summer break, the place was buzzing with students and regulars. That says a lot. Highly recommend if you’re craving Northwestern Chinese comfort food done right.

I have had Spicy Cumin Lamb Hand-pulled Noodles in both the stir-fried style and the lamp soup style, and would strongly recommend to have it dry unless you cannot take spicy. You can also choose the spice level based on your taste. It is definitely my favorite and some of my friends’ favorite dish, despite sometimes the lamb could have too much tendons. I also like the stew pork bun and cold skin noodles there. I always visited this place when I was craving Xian food in Ithaca. It is vegetarian friendly and easy for takeout.

Really happy a place opened up nearby serving Xi’an food! The biang biang noodles are really good but definitely don’t sleep on the liang pi and rou jia mo
