Xi'an Famous Foods - FLUSHING

This is my go-to spot for fresh noodles. We ordered the F5 spicy sour lamb dumplings in soup, the N1 spicy cumin lamb hand ripped noodles, and two Cokes. The total came to $30.59.

I used to love Xi'an Famous Foods as one of my go-to authentic Xi'an restaurants. However, as they have expanded, the food quality has become inconsistent. When I recently ordered the hand-pulled...

Oh my goodness. This restaurant blew me away as soon as I took my first bite. From the flavors to the freshness to the portion sizes, I was impressed. Xi'an Famous Foods has definitely earned a spot on my must-try list.

This New York restaurant specializes in Xi’an cuisine. I have visited more than 5 times and have also tried their delivery service. The meat burgers are delicious and authentic, with the pork burger being my favorite. It is generously filled with meat and offered at a reasonable price. However, the noodles with soup are not as impressive as the burgers. They tend to come with limited add-ons such as meat and potatoes. Generally, you can expect a bowl of noodles in broth with minimal meat and vegetables. The restaurant always has available seating and my average wait time is about 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately, the lack of table cleaning by staff after customers leave can make the dining area feel unclean. Overall, I would give it a 4 out of 5 rating, mainly due to the tasty pork dishes.

I highly recommend the spicy cumin lamb hand-pulled noodles, which are full of flavor and my personal favorite. If you enjoy spicy food, I suggest trying them extra spicy. The Queens location is spacious and less crowded than the one in the city.
