Fave place in Flushing. If you like spicy food and hand pulled noodles this is your place. Lamb noodles , cold skin noodles , vegetable skewers , and lamb pao mo are worth traveling for.

Biang! extends the Xi'an Famous Foods menu in a classier and more comfortable environment. There is nothing better than a bowl of spicy cumin lamb soup noodles on a cold and rainy day.

I take people here before or after a mets game just to watch their minds explode. Enter a different world, sweat from the spiciness , and try something u never had before. Its all awesome here.

Delicious hand pulled noodles . Got the Spicy Cumin Lamb Noodles "medium" spicy , which was seriously spicy ("hot" might have killed me) and delicious. Try the quail egg appetizer !

Lots of food I would have never thought to try, but it's all quite good. Lamb face salad and chicken hearts are probably the best things I've had there. I would stay away from the beef tendons though.

A hidden gem on Main St; modernized interior design combined with out of the world spices in every dish. Lamb skewers are a must! The oxtail hand cut noodles were fab too. Affordable and fast!

retartedly good Xian style noodles that will leave your mouth tingling. Get the lamb cumin skewer , spicy soft tofu , spicy cucumber salad , and soup dumplings to get the party started.

The noodles ! Between the noodles and the cumin lamb , I have never eaten anything here that I haven’t loved. Prepare for spicy and delicious!

Very authentic Xi'an food. Try the grilled chicken heart , very special and yummy.. Soft spicy tofu was ok, the tofu could be softer. Overall dining experience was awesome!

This downtown-meets-Chinatown den pleases both Instagram-happy young’uns and Mandarin-fluent grannies. Winner of the 2013 Best Second Act award, as the sophomore effort from Xi’an Famous Foods. Read more

If you love offals , try the pork intestine and chicken heart skewers sprinkled with cumin and chili powder . Also get a yogurt sochu cocktail to take off some of the heat.

You have to try the spicy lamb dumplings . It's so good that you won't stop dumping them... The noodles are great too. Cash only .

Authentic , delicate ( may only be seated and braised rather than baked and stewed ), modest, spicy , interesting, no waiters (counter service only). On the site of the old Biang.

Highly recommend the beef tendon skewers , the spicy cumin lamb noodles , liang pi and the spicy cumin lamb burger as well . Great prices and awesome food. Love it here!

The noodles with oxtails = love at first bite...???????? and don't forget the pork buns #myanacondadontwantnoneunlessugotbunshun (Fyi-I normally order it without the broth)

If you're into noodles with a kick, then this is the place to try. I ordered mine non-spicy, but it still came spicy . I was able to handle it, but my sinuses were triggered.

Wow. Just wow. Terrific skewered meats...loved the chicken heart and beef stomach. Spicy , flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I'll be back

Dry noodle is the way to go, don't forget the chicken wing !! Top it off with Taiwan beer !!

Spicy n Tingly beef noodles (dry), spicy n tingly tofu skin skewers , Liang Pi cold skin noodles (so refreshing, especially for the summer!)

Hot tip: Biang! Moved to the East V. This is just a normal Xian now, same great food, just no table service.

Everything we had was great -- especially the noodles . I think our bill was like twenty bucks. Good deal .

early lunchtime during the week, before 1 pm, seemed like a good time to go. i was dining solo so less time waiting & eating. i <3 noodles and theirs are good, or in korean, 짱!

Veggie noodles in broth. Yummy. Noodles are hand-pulled and freshly prepared.

The noodles are fantastic along with the general ambiance of the place. The good can be a bit spicy though so be careful when ordering.

Spicy soft tofu and a lamb cumin burger for a delicious lunch for less than ten bucks

Stewed Pork Biang-Biang Noodles were delish, but be aware things run on the spicier side - I was going through water pretty quickly with my "mild" noodles .

Everything is amazing. Portions are huge so order only half as much as you think you need.

Spicy lamb dumplings , cumin lamb skewers , spicy cumin lamb biang biang noodles-- DE EFFING LICIOUS

The ultimate place to grab Chinese in Flushing. We're obsessed with the lamb dumplings .

Nice and spicy ! They have water for you on the side...and the code for the bathroom is 4110

Hand-pulled noodles really do just taste way better. Try the Má Là Niú Ròu Biáng Biang Miàn.

The lamb dumplings have a wonderful spice about them, but do not pass up the flavorful skewers as well .

Fiddle head salad was great. So is the lamb and broth noodles . Perfect for a cold day.

Cumin lamb is so tasty! The noodles and broth are also fill of flavors!

Highlights on the Xi'an menu are lamb buns , cumin spiced lamb , and fiddlehead salads . – Green Guide Editor

Great noodles and particularly enjoyable marinade on the spicy cucumber salad .

Craving noodles ? Can't go wrong w/ Xi'an. Consistent, delicious, and quick.

Bring insect repellant. Lots of mosquitos in the backyard seating area. The citronella candles are semi-effective. Duane Reade is 3 blocks away if you forget the DEET.

The Spicy Cumin Lamb Noodles are a must try!!!

Recommend lamb skewer , pork bun , squid skewer , beef tripe

The watermelon soju was delicious but not the strongest, which was perfect for me because I'm such a lightweight lol =P

The Spicy Cumin Chicken Skewers are my new favourite barbequed chicken in the city .

The lamb skewers and the lamb dumplings are insanely good at this not-your-average Chinese joint!!

I figured out the slow service: if you're Asian, you don't wait. Make sure to bring an Asian friend!

Sweet and sour spinach dumplings are amazing.

Grub Street's Cheap Eats says: "Lamb skewers , $3, plus lamb dumplings , $5, plus liang pi noodles , $5."
