Authentic Sichuan noodles, dumplings, and plates with adjustable spice






















"If you want a proper bowl of spicy Chinese noodles without driving out to the SGV, head to Mian. This Sichuan noodle spot comes from the chef behind Chengdu Taste, one of our favorite spots in Alhambra, and specializes in hand-pulled Sichuan-style noodles made with tongue-numbing peppercorns. The spacious dining room has huge street-facing windows, a sleek open kitchen, and an easy-to-use QR code ordering system attached to every table. It’s a great spot to roll in by yourself for a quick sit-down lunch or bring a group for a casual weeknight dinner. Don’t leave without trying their pork chili oil wontons and a mug of mung bean tea." - nikko duren
"Finding a gluten-friendly Sichuan-style noodle house that’s not in the San Gabriel Valley is like seeing a peacock show up in your neighborhood: surprising and kind of thrilling. This casual spot in West Adams from the Chengdu Taste folks stands out with trippy artsy murals, but one of the biggest draws is that all of the fried rice dishes, including an extravagant lobster variety, are GF. And while all noodles in their soups can be swapped out for the GF variety, there are three that are entirely GF, including our favorite tomato and beef noodle soup." - jean trinh 1, garrett snyder
"Mian West Adams, a Chengdu Taste spinoff in West Adams, is a reliable solo-diner refuge in bad weather: the spicy beef noodle soup features tender beef chunks, chiles, a balanced broth edged with soybean sauce, baby bok choy, celery, fresh cilantro, and enough heat and comfort to fortify you for the road ahead." - Eater Staff
