Xi'an Famous Foods 西安名吃 [OFFICIAL]

Xi’an Famous Foods is the pioneering restaurant brand that introduced the cuisine of Xi’an and China’s Shaanxi Province to the US. Founded in 2005 and led by James Beard Award nominee Jason Wang, the family-owned company grew from a 200-square-foot basement stall into one of the country’s most influential regional Chinese restaurant brands. The late Anthony Bourdain championed Xi’an Famous Foods, helping introduce its bold flavors to a national audience.

Specializing in the cuisine of Jason’s hometown of Xi’an and Shaanxi Province, Xi’an Famous Foods celebrates a culinary tradition that was virtually unknown in America when the restaurant opened, alongside unique family interpretations not found even in Xi’an itself. Drawing on more than 4 generations of family recipes, the menu includes signature liang pi (cold-skin noodles), hand-ripped biang biang noodles, rou jia mo's, boiled dumplings, and other specialties—all prepared with a commitment to tradition, technique, and flavor.
