Domoishi Zhào Jiā Là Zhī Ròu Asian Food Hall

This review is just for a few Xian dishes, as a Xianese, beef soup水盆羊肉 and cold noodles are both authentic and delicious to me, I didn't expect to see beef soup in US, I was so surprised and it turned out so good, my partner is not from my region and he was also amazed and kept drinking the soup! Cold noodles are better than any other Xian foods in US I have had. But I didn't get Meat Bun this time because they need to get the bread imported from Xian which delayed for a long time. Hope next time I come to DC they will have it!

Definitely a smaller food hall with less selections compared to other food halls in the area, but still a good option. You can order with a worker or use their self-service kiosk. My only complaint about the self-service kiosk is that sometimes you can't see the additional charges on items when ordering poke. A worker brings the food to the table for dine-ins. I ordered the poke and it was good, however I think they put too much rice. Not the best poke I've had, but it does the job. The food hall itself is very clean and pretty empty even on a weekend. I would rate it a 3.5/5 but will round it up to 4/5.

Pros: Tasty, well portioned dishes. Cons: Service staff wasn't helpful in explaining menu options. Menu had less selection than similar restaurants.

Anyone that knows me, knows that I love AUTHENTIC Asian Food!!! I am about to tell a story... please forgive me... on my way to find another Asian spot, I stopped into this restaurants that said it sold authentic Japanese, Korean, and chinese food . I didn't believe it so on Tuesday, I first ordered Korean fried wings and chinese cumin spicy chicken buns!!!! When I tell you I got a taste of both cultures that sent me to food heaven; that's an understatement... Then, on Wednesday, I went back and got cumin lamb braised beef rice dish with a cold dish. Then today I got an Hawaiian Poke bowl with a Japanese flare) since most Hawaiian food is influenced by Japan. Anyways the poke bowl was nice Brain food!!! And Peach oolong tea with spicy duck wings; which I didn't like per say not because of taste because it was great. It the packaging kind of threw me off. It was in a preservative non-microwaveable package in which I had to cut out the duct from the package then put on stove !! I will take pictures next time...Srry I don't have more pictures started eating before coming on here.

My wife and I had the Crispy Meat Bun (pork) three times: 1) once eaten immediately after picking up, and 2) twice eaten after a 15-minute drive home. Here's the breakdown. 1) When eaten immediately, the Bun is out of this world. The pastry is super crispy and the meat is superb. The balance between the lean and the fat meat was perfect. The juices were flowing, but have not tainted the pastry. For $8, this Bun is something no foodie will regret! As for my vegetarian friends.... nvm... idk if this dish will taste good with veggie options. 10/10 2) When eaten after a 15-minute drive, the bun is delicious. The pastry is crispy and the oil have not fully oozed out. The bun has slightly been infused with the fatty oil from the meat, but the taste is still great! 9/10 I believe if the Bun sits in the beautiful bag longer than 1hour, then this dish would go down drastically. So my advice for anyone ordering the Crispy Meat Bun is to eat it immediately!
