Shaanxi/Xi'an food (spicy , sour Chinese) is the name of Terra Cotta Warrior's game, where everyone talks about the amazingly authentic hand-pulled noodles . Read more

Noodles in sizzling oil is amazzzing and pita bread soaked in lamb soup is interesting. Tasty food, clean , good service ! Wait list sign up at door. Min credit card charge $15, max 1credit card/table.

Jennie Li

Must get the noodles in sizzling oil, mian pi , cucumber salad . Good amount of spice! The braised chicken dish is HUGE.

Kaleigh Kenny

This is one of my favorite restaurants in SF. After moving to CA after living in Xi'an for a year, I needed to find somewhere to get my Shaanxi noodle fix and Terra Cotta Warrior never disappointed.

Qishan minced pork noodles ($9). Chewy, smooth hand-pulled noodles hides under the surface of the broth, obscured by a ruddy cap of chili oil , ground pork , scallions and fried tofu .

Jeff Weinstein

Hand pulled noodles , smashed garlic cucumber , the monster chicken dish , dumplings , lamb burger , cumin lamb noodles . If you wink the right way, you might be able to turn this place BYOB .

It’s great. Amazing noodles . Very tasty and worth the wait. You might find the droids you’re looking for in line , but I didn’t.

Serious Eats

Fresh, hand pulled noodles are the star of the show, and the atmosphere is worthy of date night . Don't miss the Qishan Minced Pork Noodles . 

Jimmy Lu

Chili oil noodles are good. Make sure to add vinegar! Also, their egg and chives burger is delicious

Chris Duffus

The Braised Chicken With Potato & Pepper was excellent. Note: it is served family style and can/should be for parties of at least two up to six.

Hannes ☕

The lamb burger is great. It's not big though, so make sure to order some twice-baked-pork with it.

Runqiu Cai

Best Shanxi restaurant with the most delicious noodles in the city . Unfortunately, they have poor cleanliness ratings

Crazy flavorful food. Worth the wait. Come w something to sit on at 6 on a sunny warm day. What a winner.

Jennifer Yip

The minced pork noodle soup is a must get. Dishes with the pepper are not as spicy as you'd think. Expect a (short ) line , even at 8pm on a Tuesday.

An Sheng

Best xian food in the city ! Get the lamb soup with pita ! 💯

James T

The braised chicken with potato and pepper is basically an entire chicken (feet, bones and all) with potatoes , peppers , onions and noodles . It's huge.

Yes! The art of Chinese Noodle , especially focus on Shanxi noodle . Love it! So lucky we have you in the sunset district.
