The 21 Best Restaurants In Culver City

"If you’re looking for a quick lunch that isn’t sad and/or boring, Bang Bang delivers. There might be a line at this small counter inside Citizen Public Market if you come around noon, but at least you can watch your thick, chewy noodles being slapped and stretched to order while you wait. Bang Bang’s menu is concise—three kinds of hand-pulled Chinese noodles (available dry or as a soup), plus a few small dishes like chili cucumbers and dumplings. We go back and forth between the tingling cumin and Szechuan garlic as our favorite, but either way, order your noodles dry: the bold, fragrant sauces at Bang Bang are bolder when they’re clinging to the noodles instead of bobbing in broth." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder, cathy park
