"After living in Xi 'an for a while, I now miss the combination of flavours that differs from many other Chinese cuisines. Middle eastern scents of herbs and spices with the use of lamb likely an influence from the western/northern ethnic minorities of China who have ancestors spanning Mongolia and the Middle East. The Altaic fusion with more traditional Chinese hand pulled/cut noodles in clear(ish) broth, xi 'an sandwich etc bring me back to my home away from home. Although in Xi 'an you can expect the sandwich to be a lot more oily from the street vendors as well as more generously packed with fillings. Even the smell of the place when you walk in reminds me of xi 'an, it 's only missing the smell of exhaust fumes and rampart use of car horns to make it 100% authentic. It is the closest I 've come to the food of xi 'an since leaving, and it 's a relief to see someone specialise in one area of cuisine rather than trying to do everything. The staff are great and when not busy juggling customers and plates, are warm and enjoy conversing if that 's what you want. You should book if you plan to eat from 6pm onwards as it gets very busy. They do takeaway too. Don 't expect your English 'Chinese ' food here, but if you 've been to northern China and miss it, you can come here to reminisce a little."

Best noodles I’ve had in London. Go to delivery place for Asian food. The pulled noodles are sensational!

Authentic Chinese food. Noodles and dumplings were good. Small restaurant with limited space, tables placed very close together.

Best hand-pulled noodles you will ever eat. Must visit for authentic Xian food. Just a shame of the view across the street, COYS.

Delicious food (esp the hand pulled noodles), quick service. They accept cards. No alcohol served but you can BYOB for a small corkage.

Loooovethe hand pulled noodles! Side cucumbers are nice to go with the spicy noodles. Get the mince pork noodles if you can’t handle spice.

Best noodles in London! Been coming here for years, get a lot of delivery as well and this place never fails. The flavours are so unique and I would honestly recommend anything on the menu. My favourite are the veg Bang Bang Noodles, pork and veg dumplings, smacked cucumber and Xian cold noodles. My partner loooves their spicy chicken noodles too. No frills interior with extremely fast service. Friendly staff. Highly recommend this place :

Small “street food” eatery in front of the Arsenal stadium. Just follow where the two guns are pointing! Delicious and authentic spicy Chinese food. Fast service and fast turnover of tables. (40 covers? I had to wait in the queue on weeknight at 7.30 for about 15 minutes. The cold chicken in chilli oil starter was try to its Chinese name: “mouth watering chicken”. The famous biang biang noodles are messy to eat (one long sheet! but worth the mess. (Bring a bin. . Plus pot of tea made the bill £28.
