I love noodles always, this is the best one I have in San Diego. The noodles are hand made, the sauces was delicious. We all ordered liang pier, the taste wad so good. Will definitely come back and try more dishes.

Lots of positive reviews on this place and yes we tried the Biang Biang noodles just like everyone else. Everything is tasty, but a bit heavy on the sauce for my taste. The veggies were really tasty as well, but again with quite a bit of sugar. I understand the situation of being short staffed and I don’t mind using the app with a QR code where I can order my own food. But the expected tips boxes go from 18% – 25%? Something I keep pondering

The pork burger is sad. Looks nothing like the menu picture. Server was very rude. Sauce containers on the table is very dirty. The hot sauce looks like it been there 100 years lol. The spicy lamb is very chewy, meat taste old. Price is over priced for what u get.

Beef brisket hand pulled noodles worth the price of entry. Great Szechuan peppercorn spice flavor. The lamb skewers though tasted almost of rotten lamb. Ordering is pretty convenient using a table specific QR code though it would have been easier if we could also pay through the website.

I am always on a quest for hand pulled noodles and I finally found some! The thick, chewy biang biang noodles here are the stuff of my dreams. The dumplings were also hand made and so bouncy and unctuous. I’m so glad I found this place. It’s definitely authentic and if you like thick noodles, you gotta try this place! So delicious!

First time trying the Beef Pao-Mo Soup and love flavor ! Interesting texture with the small cut pieces of noodles. On the other hand, loved the intesting soup the most It has cilantro on it so if you dont eat cilantro make sure to ask to take them off when ordering.

Overall: like the sign says, it truly is magic! One of the best authentic Chinese food places in San Diego. The only thing is that the service is not that good, which dented the overall tastiness of the food. If I could, I’d give it 4.5 stars

One of the most authentic Chinese foods in San Diego! If you want to try the real Chinese flavor, please come to check it out. First, this restaurant is specializing in Shan Xi food which represents one of the most popular western part of Chinese cuisine. Myself love Shan Xi food a lot, they use a lot of beef & lamb, it’s a little bit like mid-eastern foods. This time, the dishes I tried and loved a lot are Di San Xian, Stir Fry Lotus Root, and hand pulled Biang Biang noodles. My friend said almost all their foods are nice, I’ll definitely come back here for other dishes!

This food is killer. Everything we got was just amazing. Biang-Biang noodles with cumin lamb was spicy and delicious. The friend rice was a bit different than the typical fried rice…in the best way. Definitely exceeded expectations for my lady who is a fried rice addict, and we couldn’t stop eating the shrimp pork and leak dumplings in the spicy vinegar broth. Staff is very friendly and extremely helpful finding you a dish you will like, especially if you are trying to branch out to try something new. This place is truly magic!
