Popular neighbourhood restaurant serving up North Central Chinese cuisine. The interior is small and homely. The place fills up fast during dinner and there are lots of orders for takeaway. Recommend reservations if you intend to dine in or call well ahead for take-out. Though busy, the owner took care of us as best as he could.

The style of cooking leans towards being starchier and more oily. It's a heavier meal that is filling. We were not so used this type of cooking. Strong food smells stick to the clothes.

3. Xi’an Hu La Tang
⭐
The soup has hints of white pepper and vinegar. It is not spicy. The soup base is thin. In the soup there are small meatballs & diced vegetables. I would have liked a richer broth with more ingredients.

73. Guo Tie
⭐⭐⭐
From the reviews, we saw this was a top item. The semi open-faced pan-fried, pork-filled handmade dumplings were tasty with a generous amount of seasoned meat. The dough is thick and chewy. The base is slightly crispy. The dish is accompanied by a small serving of pickled vegetables.

The 10 piece plate was a meal on its own. As it was also oily, having something plain like steamed white rice provided balance and absorbed the heaviness of this dish.

75. Xi’an Suan Cai Chao Fan
⭐⭐
Fried rice with chopped bits of marinated Chinese cabbage and meat topped with a fried egg. Definitely filling but oily.

Edit 2024: food is still delicious and staff super friendly!
We usually order the vegan dumplings and vegetarian noodles. Everytime, the dishes just taste so good. We tried some other things, but those are the best one, for us. Our friends also tried the meat options and liked them too. The staff is very friendly and the prices good. We were even allowed inside with our dog.

One of our favorite Chinese restaurants in Stockholm that happens to be located in our neighborhood in Hägersten. What’s not more perfect than sharing lots of different tasty dishes paired with Tsingtao with your friends, partner or alone. Some of our favorite dishes is the wonton soup, the fried dumplings and their handmade noodles, and the duck in pancakes. Make sure to ask for their homemade chili oil from Xian, the magic that pumps up the flavors to the next level.
