The new Xian concept finally opened at the top of Beverly Glen. It is basically the same menu as BH but very limited seating (maybe 6-8 people total) and geared for take out. Given that they have been operating in BH for 18 years it is amazing how poorly conceived their operation is. There is a very small counter (maybe 5 feet wide) where you order and pick up. A single counter person is stationed there to take orders from walk-ups and hand off the food to go. The problem is that same person is also answering the phones and taking to-go orders. I was by twice and the first time she chatted away about the menu for 20 minutes while a line of customers waited to place orders or pick up. People were really upset. Two other customers and I all had mistakes made with our orders. Decided to give them another try the next night and it was a repeat performance by the girl on the phone and the food was ice cold. Also surprised that most of the help was non-Asian and confused looking. Maybe things will improve with time, but you would expect the operation to hit the ground at least walking if not jogging.
