Very friendly guys at the counter. The food is so good, just like something you would get in China. The tables are in the grocery store food court and shared by all the restaurants. They can be a little dirty sometimes. I recommend doing takeout if that's off-putting. Be aware they upcharge for card, so bring cash. Some recommendations for people unfamiliar with "real" Chinese cuisine: 1. A classic chinese breakfast is youtiao (fried dough stick) dipped in soy milk. You can get both here and try that yourself. 2. Jellied tofu sounds gross but it's really a savory tofu-broth. I also love dipping the fried dough sticks into it. Make sure you ask for the Northern China savory variety... they also offer a Southern China sweet variety. 3. The pita bread in mutton soup and rougamo are Xi'an (Shaanxi) specialties. Honestly, theirs are way better than what I had in China. The lamb didn't taste gamey and was really tender. If you let the pita absorb the soup, it tastes great. 4. Their handmade noodles have just the right texture. The chewy thick centers are addictive. The texture is a little like American chicken and dumplings, but the soup is 100% traditional Chinese spices and flavor. I loved the spicy chicken noodle soup. (It is a little spicy for low tolerance though.) TLDR, go here. You won't regret. They don't show up on Yelp but they're more authentic than anything that does show up.

I ordered the simple beef stir fry that had sliced bell peppers both red and green. You can select the types of noodles that you want. I prefer the thicker sized ones which are medium size in width. Soft but a slightly chewy texture. The perfect mouth feel. The guy working was friendly and helpful. Great place and and very inexpensive.
