This is our second time here, but i finally thought to write a review. I got the mala dry beef…read morewhich is very yummy. It comes with cabbage along with a very good amout of meat. The hand pulled noodles is chewy and soft. The ambiance of the store is great, the lighting is dimmed which creates a great atmosphere. The service was good, we got checked on during our meal and had our water refilled- though keep in mind that you order on your own phone using the QR code provided. The taste of the sauce in the mala beef dry is very vinegary but it was enjoyable and i would come again to dry the soup version.

Our first visit to Fang's and I can see some of the themes others have mentioned. The quality of…read morethe noodles and the ample fillings in the Xiaolongbao are the standout stars of this establishment, 5+. However, I can only assume that most patrons are assumed to be regulars so the basics of welcoming you in and explaining menu and ordering protocols require getting the attention of the server. As it was our first time visiting, the menu off of the QR code was confusing as noodle options show at the top "let's meet our noodles" with $0, followed by menu items with prices. All can be selected and added to your cart however we found out later that they are only there to show you noodle options for the dishes below. There is ample seating, however the bathroom is gender neutral and could do with a deep cleaning and a sign that asks people to put the seat down after use. Perhaps take-out next time. Including photos of just a couple of the dishes we ordered...

Another place that let me down. Based off reviews, I had high hopes but walking in I was…read moreimmediately taken by how empty it was. But it was early and I assumed it would pick up. (In transparency I do want the assurance of customers enjoying food sitting around me when I eat). The food, was only middle of the road, with a dish or two being below our expectations. Sitting in an empty, strip mall restaurant to celebrate Chinese New Year, I was let down by everything, from the service, to the food and the ambiance.

Surprisingly so good! My friend and I were wandering the UW street fair when it started sprinkling…read more To avoid getting wet I suggest we grab food since she had her newborn with her. You order from a kiosk when you get inside, grab and table and the staff calls you when food is ready. Minimal interaction with them so I can't speak for service but the noodle soup we order was so comforting! My friend ordered the beef bone noodle soup and I ordered the spiced pickled beef noodle combo because the sides peaked my interest. The broth is so flavorful and has a ton of depth it was nice since it was a bit cold outside due to the rain. I assumed the pickled cabbage that were in the soup were going to taste like pickled mustard green but they did not. They had a funky after taste that I didn't really enjoy. Aside from that, everything else was great. The beef was tender and I absolutely love all kinds of handmade noodles. The side that I chose was a potato salad and again, I assumed it was going to be more of a salad but it was this tangy, spicy potato strings. It was really nice actually. Help added some acidity to my meal. By the time we were finished, the rain had stopped so it worked out perfectly!

Despite the food being made fresh they get your food to you pretty quickly which is great (although…read moremaybe I was lucky because it was pretty dead when I went). My favorite was actually the tomato egg stir noodle. I didn't know what it would be which is why I wanted to try it and I was pleasantly surprised. Essentially it seemed like scrambled eggs in a red tomato sauce (with chunks of tomato) and noodles. Not overly seasoned but enough. The original beef noodle soup was good but maybe I should have ordered a more exciting option. It was a great soup for a cold December night but there wasn't anything about it that stood out. The classic pork sandwich was nice. It's basically just the flaky bread filled with a ton of seasoned shredded pork. I'm sure there were onions or something also in there but I didn't notice any vegetables. Skip the zongzis. I was really let down by that. If you know fufu from West African food it honestly reminded me of that in texture and flavor (aka no flavor). But that's the point of fufu, you are using that as a vessel/serving device, I presume the zongzi is supposed to actually taste like something Ambiance is pretty sterile overall.

I've been wanting to try more noodle dishes and this place had been on my list for about a year. At…read morefirst I didn't know what to expect because I'm not familiar with Chinese noodle soups. When I arrived, the restaurant was about 1/3 full. The place was pretty quiet and didn't seem very lively, but there were others that showed up after me so that seemed pretty promising. The server sat us down but didn't mention about the QR code on the table so I sat there for about a min or two before I noticed. The whole menu and ordering was done all on your phone for the whole table. Not very much interaction. We ordered the spicy BBQ chicken skewers, the stewed beef rib noodle soup, and the normal beef flank noodle soup. The order came out relatively fast. The spicy BBQ chicken skewer was not what I expected. I was expecting a skewer like a kabob, but I received a few skewers with what seems to be thin pieces of ground chicken. The flavor was alright, but the chicken was VERY dry, which made it hard to enjoy. My stewed beef rib noodle soup wasn't bad. I got it with normal sized noodles and some beef flank on the side. The noodles were fine, but the soup could've been warmer. I was expecting a hot bowl of soup. The flavor was lacking a little, but it became much better after I added some chili oil. The rib meat wasn't bad. It had a a couple bites that were a tad tough but the flavor was kinda there. Honestly the extra flank pieces I had were better. Much better overall and it was pretty tender. I didn't really try my friend's bowl, but she got her soup with wide noodles. They were a bit wider than she expected. She made note that her noodles did seem undercooked and they had a slight doughy chew to them. She said it would've been better if it was cooked a little longer. Overall I enjoyed my soup. There are some things I would change, but I think it was a good first experience for something I've never had before.

There weren't many people inside so we got our large group seated immediately. I got the chicken vermicelli salad, which came with a huge assortment of veggies and a good amount of chicken.

They also have teriyaki which I didn't try, but you're bound to find something you can eat here!

The beef noodle has a good kick but not overwhelming, you can still taste the flavorful beef broth. The noodles had a great chew. The kids had the pork noodles and that was also very delicious. 2 self ordering kiosks, most items had pictures which makes it easier to order. The gentleman behind the counter was really nice and helped me answer some questions regarding the menu. The space is nice and clean, shares the bathroom with Snowy Village. They also had homemade peach tea which was complimentary! Overall amazing experience. Kid friendly with kid bowls.

Xi'an Noodles seemed like a promising place for biang biang noodles in Bellevue. We went in for a…read moreweekend lunch, only to be terribly disappointed. This restaurant is mostly self service; there are two kiosks right in front for ordering and a table full of prefilled drink cups. I think the only upside to this restaurant is the free cups of mango tea, which are slightly sweetened and fruity. I wouldn't say they are very mango forward though. Hot Oil Biang Noodles ($13.99) - The biang biang noodles here aren't very good. They seem to be stretched somewhat, but then I feel like they take shortcuts. Instead of being almost completely stretched via bouncing the noodles on the table, they only stretch it probably half as much as normal, then they cut the dough lengthwise several times - this is why I can see multiple clear corner pieces in the noodle instead of it being relatively straight. They also don't care to make it consistent in thickness. This causes major issues because the thinner parts are soft and mushy while the thicker corners are doughy and slightly undercooked. I don't know how, but the noodles also clump together, so in some bites, I'm eating three strands of mushy noodles right on top of each other. The sauce here isn't much better. It's supposed to be aromatic, blistering hot oil mixed with chili/vinegar and aromatics poured directly on the noodles. The problems here are multifold. Firstly, they don't drain the noodles properly, resulting in an excessive amount of water diluting the sauce. Secondly, they use far too much vinegar, making the sauce overly acidic. The vinegar is by far the dominant flavor in the dish. While the dish seems like it will be spicy due to the red color oil, it's almost completely diluted out by the vinegar and noodle cooking water. The dish is basically not spicy at all due to these factors. (2/5) Spicy Cumin Lamb Biang Noodle Soup ($14.99) - This dish suffers from the same noodle issues as above, but the soup format improves some aspects slightly, but worsens other aspects. Since the soup is hot and the noodles are soaked in the broth, they soften more readily, so the soft portions are even more mushy than the "dry" noodle. The thicker portions are nice and bouncy though. The soup itself is relatively flavorful, slightly gamey, and tastes like it actually is a lamb bone broth, but it doesn't really have depth of flavor. Again, it's not really spicy at all. The lamb on top seems like thinly sliced hot pot lamb, pan fried until very dry. If not for the fact that the lamb is sliced thin, it would be extremely tough. It does have a nice fragrant cumin flavor though. (2/5) Those were the two worst bowls of noodles I've had in a long time. I wasn't particularly impressed with the noodles at the U District location of Xi'an Noodles either, but they were far better than these two steaming piles of excrement. Bathrooms - Two unisex room shared with Snowy Village. One was locked though

We ordered the wonton noodle soup, preserve egg with beef congee, chinese broccoli, and a Chinese donut. The congee was probably my favorite because of nostalgia growing up. Service was good.
