Xi’an Famous Foods is NYC's go-to for fiery, hand-pulled noodles, spicy lamb, and bold Western Chinese flavors served fast-casual, no frills, all flavor.
"N1!!! We do like spicy food, but these hand pulled noodles are something else. Amazingly good. Together with a cold cucumber salad it makes for a great meal." - My Orange Box
"Originating in a hardscrabble downstairs mall in Flushing, this noodle shop has expanded to many branches and in the process turned into a New York City icon. It was a key institution in popularizing regional Chinese cuisines, in this case, that of Shaanxi in Central China. Look for broad wheat noodles, spicy lamb and chicken dishes, and steamed-bao-based “burgers.”" - Robert Sietsema
"The first stateside Michelin-starred noodle joint has mostly avoided sending Douglas Kim’s delicate Korean ramyun out for delivery due to an inability to control the transit time." - Gary He
"Built on the recipes of David Shi and the business acumen of his son Jason Wang, the company has made the loud, heat-packed dishes of Xi’an, China must-gets for even the Midtown lunch set and grown to 15 locations across the city." - Eater Staff
"Xi’an Famous Foods owner Jason Wang has been nominated for outstanding restaurateur." - Stefanie Tuder
