Food tastes good but very salty. You gonna keep drinking water. Serving is slow, takes 30 minutes
The service attitude was super bad. I ate fish bones in the cauliflower. I had to ask twice before I agreed to return the dish. Some of the women even spoke Cantonese. I don’t know what they are talking about. 😅

The décor was okay, the floors were slippery, and the food was salty and greasy. They do not allow splitting of the bill; one customer must pay the entire bill and then split the bill themselves afterward.

Oh man!!! It took over half an hour for one dish to come and then over half an hour for a second dish to come. Extremely understaffed, chaotic and highly Miserable staff.
The noodle dish came tasting Like rotten garbage. Atmosphere was kind of cool, except the lighting was on full blast and unpleasant floors are slippery. Be careful, but I suggest not going altogether.!! Hahaha

Went here tonight with a friend because we were in the mood for Szechuan cuisine.
I would give zero stars if I could, we were often ignored when we tried to get the servers attention, we ordered three dishes to share that came out 20-30 minutes apart from each other and was cold by the time we ate it, although the green onions with beef was ok, the noodles in another dish were overcooked and mushy.
We asked for our bill but again were ignored and when we went to pay we requested to have the bill split so we could pay equal amounts with tip on debit, they very rudely told us they would not do this.
As a person who has been a Chef and worked many positions in a restaurant do understand that when your restaurant is busy that sometimes it’s hard to keep up with orders and customer requests, however to be rude or ignore your customer is completely unacceptable.
I hope my review encourages the owners to change how they deal with their clientele or at the very least, someone who’s reading this will consider dining someplace else.

We were seated at 6:10. We were served soup first, and then the long wait began. At 6:55, we were finally served a cold dish. I just don’t understand why a couple’s lung slices last so long? The key is that the attitude of the waiter is so bad!! We called the waiter twice to ask about the dishes, but they ignored us both times. Is this your service attitude? The key is that we had already stopped the waiter to ask, and then he just looked at us and left? ! ? ! ! !

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. Halfway through our meal, we were unexpectedly asked to pay the bill in advance, even though it was still a while before closing time. To make things worse, they dimmed most of the lights, making us feel rushed and unwelcome. This unprofessional behavior made what should have been an enjoyable dining experience feel uncomfortable and rushed.

It closed at 10 o'clock and walked in at 9 o'clock. As soon as I sat down and got the menu, the front desk said that there would be last call soon. They wanted us to order quickly. It was understandable. I had just drawn a dish and wanted to add something to it. When I came out of the kitchen, An older lady said to us directly, "You know it closes at 10 o'clock, right?" I said, isn't it already nine o'clock? She said it would be 9:15 soon, and asked us to order faster. If you can, I'll leave immediately
On a Tuesday night at around 7pm, we got the last table (for 4) on the second floot (ground floor already full). Imagine the situation during the weekends. (Parking also quite tight on a Tuesday evening).
Food was delicious and authentic (but I guess they tuned down for our table....we could even have spicier!!) Famous spicy poached fish (although only basa...wonderful if we could upgrade to a better fish??) Fish was good but the we mostly skipped the bean sprouts in the oily soup/sauce. Fried Cumin lamb (my favorite tonight). Braised eggplant with garlic sauce was also nice (but would prefer if it was served in a claypot rather than a plate...)
Waiters/waitresses were friendly but obviously they were understaffed.
Would go back again with more friends but defintely not on the weekends.....

If you want bomb Szechuan food, come here. I was going through other reviews and realized that most of them are for the service or takeout complaints ( I personally thought the service was really good!).
We ordered Ma Po Tofu, Dumplings in Chilli Oil and Cumin Lamb. By the end of our meal, we had enough take-out for two full meals! That's how good the quantity is. And the food is SO good that it smacks you in the face, makes you sweat but you still don't want to stop.
They definitely deserve more love and a much higher rating!

They don’t follow instruction at all, and they did the completely opposite on purpose. I’ve ordered the same dish before and I noticed there’s ginger. So I put “no ginger” under instruction this time and it was also printed on the receipt. But look how much ginger they gave me? I said NO GINGER, not EXTRA GINGER, or this GINGER MOUNTAIN. Can you guys read? Or at least call me back and say “hey we can’t remove the ginger” and I’ll take it. But they gave at least 3 times more ginger than usual and there’s not much meat left in a $34 dish.
