Love that there's a Shan Xi Magic Kitchen stall inside the food court at the 99 Ranch on Balboa. Always nice to pause for some noodles when we shop!

### sanfoodiego — 3.5/5 · Oct 3, 2022
very flavorful noodles with a little bit of heat but a lot of unique flavors. the sauce is killer and the noodles are a great texture!

The best north western Chinese food I’ve had in San Diego. Consistent quality, low prices, and versatile choices set this place apart.

This Chinese restaurant is full of authentic food choices form Shanxi, China. Known for their noodles and buns, this city owns a great culture of working magic with its flour, and this place definitely captures that! The noodles had amazing texture, and the bun in the end was simple yet effective!

Shan Xi Magic Kitchen in Kearny Mesa has great Asian food. I really liked the lamb burger-style item—super flavorful and unique. Definitely worth trying.

Wide, chewy Biang Biang noodles tossed in spicy chili oil and garlic—simple yet bold. Every bite hits that perfect balance of heat and savor. A must-stop for anyone craving authentic northern Chinese comfort food.

Mapo tofu fish was unique and tasty, not your traditional saucy mapo tofu but I personally like it less saucy.
