    Lamb dumplings are huge and delicious. Noodles in soup are actually easier to eat than the ones without soup, not as sticky.

    The best noodles ever. Get 'em with whatever you like on top or by themselves. If you're super hungry get a spicy cumin lamb burger to go with. Don't forget a sour hawberry tea, it's delicious!

    Few things in life give us as much joy as a big, beautiful bowl of noodles. And Xi’an’s addictive version is totally worth the chile oil splatters we inevitably incur while slurping like a maniac. Read more

    Delicious and (a bit) spicy Chinese restaurants chain. This location is well-placed, and has a great selection of XFF noodles! Try their spicy lamb noodles!

    Loved the spicy lamb noodle. Lots of cumin. Dumplings amazing. Get mild spice. Bradys pork noodles also good

    The spicy and tingly noodles are perfect. The noodle is thick, long and almost aldente. The spice is hot enough to get your nose running just a little bit, but not hot enough to make you need a drink

    Excellent! I got the Jasmine tea and spicy beef noodle; it was super flavorful without being too salty. Great first impression.

    The lamb "burger" is good. It's just meat and their version of a bun but the meat is spicu and flavorful! Can't go wrong with any of the noodle dishes.

    Everything is addictive. Spicy, cumin-y lamb noodles, and get a side of tofu too. And there's even outdoor seating in back for nice days.

    Definitely the weakest of all the locations. The girl taking orders is miserable and mean and they are REALLY slow. Food is still bomb so I will continue to go.

    Hand-pulled noodles with lamb (N1) are delicious, with a great texture, great spicy sauce. Hawberry tea tastes like raspberry lemonade!

    Any lamb dish you won't be disappointed. But don't take away! They're serious about it not tasting as good.
