Village VoiceApril 17, 2014This is the place to be to try a mix of authentic Chinese food, secretly tucked away in stalls like you might find in China. Try the lamb and squash dumplings at Tianjin Dumpling House. Read more
Nueva BabylonMarch 17, 2013If u r up for the spiciest rabbit in NYC try it at Chen Du Tian Fu (the 1st on the left) though some might not like chilli & bones. We also like Xian spicy noodles (go for any) Northern China style
Swift SwiftNovember 15, 2016Two of my favorite dishes in NYC under one roof. Get the Lamb and Green Squash dumplings from Tian Jin and the beef noodle soup from Lam Zhou. Load both up with vinegar and chili sauce.
EMarch 20, 2015If you want some really authentic Chinese food, go here in Flushing! Hole in a wall joint, hard to find but worth finding!! I recommend the bone marrow soup, spicy beef tripe and lamb dumplings!
Kimmie OhhJuly 30, 2019I believe this is the OG food court! All the food here is authentic & comes from different regions of China. Not very clean, possibly language barriers & wobbly stools but that’s the experience of it.
CITY GRITAugust 10, 2014You must try the stuffed lamb bun from this little pancake stall! It will be the best spin on a Sloppy Joe you've ever tasted!
Serious EatsMarch 19, 2013A crammed, frenetic, two-level food court with cheap, delicious food from all over China. A Flushing must.
Christina C.April 23, 2013Xian Noodles are freshly pulled & delicious. Small space w/ limited seating but well worth it. Dumpling shop around the corner has good dumplings too (buy some frozen ones to go as well).
Lucky PeachOctober 15, 2015WHAT TO EAT: Spicy plate of cold rabbit with peanuts at Chengdu Heaven, hand-pulled noodles and lamb burgers from Xi’an Famous Foods. For full review, click Read more. Read more
chris giordanoOctober 13, 2015Gonna be my first time down in the Mall. Is there a place down there for Long Bao Soup Dumplings or do I need to go to Prince Street where I normally go...Thanks in advance everyone
Aaron BeppuAugust 12, 2012tip : the basement (with some of the best restaurants) is accessed via a stairwell from the street to the right of the main entrance and "Golden Shopping Mall" sign.
Michael CalleiaAugust 25, 2013Go in the basement food court for some amazing food. Cheap, fast and good. These stalls are so much better than any food truck in the city!- CITY GRITAugust 10, 2014After you've order up your dumplings, get in line for the Pork Meat Sauce Pulled Noodles from the Lanzhou Hand Pulled Noodle stall! We dream about that broth!
- Village VoiceAugust 24, 2010The stall from Xi'an (No. 36) has already spawned branches in two boroughs, and the one from Sichuan (No. 31) produces chile-oiled salads that will blow the top of your head off.
Wylie ConlonJanuary 6, 2014Squash dumplings with Lamb and the eggplant skewers, both in feh basement, are flavor bombs. Highly recommended.- Lucile HechtJanuary 12, 2015Dumplings, dumplings, dumplings! Try Tianjin for dumplings, and Xian Famous Foods for pulled noodles.
Jess NaldoMarch 22, 2015Everything in the food court is GREAT... Dumplings, handmade noodles, etc. but AVOID BUBBLE TEA HERE. Worst I've ever had unless you like diluted, sugar milk and shit for tapioca balls. Nice girl tho.
Bill B.June 29, 2011Pig's Foot, thats fantastic, but Its this lamb burger that hits me straight in the pleasure zone: crisp chunks of lamb seasoned with cumin, dressed with red peppers and pickled jalapenos, its great.
jon ferrerJanuary 17, 2010try the lamb noodle soup. you'll find it on the 2nd floor, across from the hairdresser. add some chili oil and black vinegar and you're in flushing heaven.
Melissa ChienJanuary 27, 2014Sichuan stand located right near the basement entrance has super spicy and fantastic dan dan noodles.
Erin H.March 15, 2015You really have to know what you're are doing here. But some of the best Chinese in flushing.- Paul KernfeldNovember 30, 2014Great selection of authentic mainland Chinese food: dumplings, hand-pulled noodles, and much more.
Tianjin is one of the few 'discount dumpling' stalls that's doing innovative things. The lamb and green squash dumplings are worth the LIRR ride alone.
Justin KadisSeptember 21, 2014Pan-fried pork and chive buns, lamb burger, and the egg & chive pocket with glass noodles.
Gloria ChinMarch 26, 2014get the egg & chive pocket w/ glass noodles at the street-level takeout window
Dara HashemiDecember 31, 2009I had the liang liang noodles and the lamb burger. There's a lot of food in here and it's all great. There's hand pulled noodles. The station with the head cheese looks amazing.
Christina LeeJanuary 12, 2013Right next to the xian famous foods is a great place for boiled dumplings
Following in Bourdain's footsteps, I went for the lamb burger downstairs - then the lamb noodle shop around the corner upstairs. Both were good, but less exciting than I expected.
chengdu heaven&lan zhou hand-pulled noodles are both very authentic, much better than the xi'an spot in my opinion.
Binki ColladoMarch 26, 2015Hey Golden Shopping Mall, you should join Freebie! The benefits are amazing for both you and me. Read more- Upon entering... Snag a Taro Root Bubble Drink from the ladies right by the stairs. It's WAY better (and cheaper) than the ones at Quickly Tea.
Pierce PucketteJuly 3, 2014Food from every part of China not the typical food you find in the corner Chinese restaurant
Ricky HuangNovember 18, 2010must have the savory cumin lamb noodle soup and savory cumin lamb burger from Xi'an stall.
Christina CacioppoSeptember 8, 2011so. many. dumplings. the better one's are in the basement food court, not the upstairs version.
- Tim Kane 🗺November 25, 2009Be sure to try the lamb burger at Xi'an Famous Foods. Anthony Bourdain-approved!
Some Chinese people that work here are just totally ignore the No Smoking sign.....
