Seriously, the best Hunan and Sichuan cuisine you can find right here in Davis! I'm especially excited about their newly added items – they're fantastic! We ordered the premium pork elbow, sizzling plate spicy squid, Chinese winter melon, and stir-fried yellow cattle beef. It's convenient to find authentic Chinese food without having to drive all the way to the Bay Area. I also noticed their new decor and nice music!

Stir-fried Water Spinach with Garlic is vibrant green, crisp, and refreshing. The strong garlic aroma complements the vegetable’s natural sweetness and tenderness.

Waited 2 hours for an online order with very little care or customer service. No offers to take anything off the bill or offer for a drink. If they get behind on take out and online orders they really should be transparent about wait times or put a hold on orders until they are caught up. This isn't the first time I have experienced long waits or poor service. The food is good, but the wait is not worth it

THIS RESTAURANT RUINED CHRISTMAS. We placed an order pick up for our Christmas dinner. We placed it through their online ordering platform on their website. It said 20min until ready for pick up. We waited for our food for an hour and half. They told us two of the items were ready and just sitting there getting cold but the rest of the order wasn’t ready. They wouldn’t give any estimation on how long it would take or give any sort of refund or anything to make it right. Then they canceled the order on us after waiting for an hour and half in the restaurant for the order to be ready. DO NOT GO HERE.

The rolled beef pancake is so bad!! Do not order this unless you want to be chewing it for days tastes like they use the leftover days old beef and the pancake isn’t soft it’s hard. Also no dipping sauce. I got ripped off. It looks good in the picture but doesn’t taste good at all! The picture is a placebo effect.

Very chill atmosphere (with music and chatter), lovely interior design (I love the blue and gold), plants, etc. amazing food and service was fast both times I’ve been here (while we were one of the only customers in the store and when we weren’t). All of the dishes were delicious, spicy, sour or sweet and the rice was soft. They gave us free 红糖糍粑 when they overheard it was one of my party’s members birthday and gave a free panda bag as a gift to the 7yr old kid that was with us the second time I came here. Now one of my favorite restaurants in downtown :)

Great for spice lovers—the heat level can be adjusted freely, and the authentic flavors are incredibly satisfying.

Quite impressive dinner menu. Recently remodeled in 2024/2025, this is not the Hunan of the past.
It's a solid, quality, authentic sichuan/hunan style restaurant with the quality dishes to match.
The whole fish boiling pot was the highlight. The entire fish (catfish) was fresh and went well with the veges and other items in it. When it says it is spicy- it's no joke! It has the famous sichuan peppercorn numbing spice.
Another standout was the 'squirrel' fish- it's hard to explain, but I took a picture and that was not spicy- but sweet and sour. It was amazing and my family said it was one of the best they ever had.
The other dishes are solid, and they have non-spicy dishes- but if you come to hunan-style restaurant you'll get the toothpick lamb, spicy pork dishes, dry style hotpot, etc. Everything is solid.
The vibe- vibe is good. Not a typical chinese restuarant. Had American museum vibes, Nora Jones playlist on repeat. But it works, and the past few times I was here, there were bunch of international asian students- which is a very good sign.
All in all, very quality- and highly recommend it for dinner. Lunch is solid too, but the portions are a little smaller. Dinner you pay more- but I feel like it's the better deal. Enjoy!!

I didn't eat there. I keep telling Google this.
Good but super greasy. Really nice interior and great customer service. I have done homework here for a few hours a few times and they refilled my water and were really kind. The texture of the beef is unusual sometimes. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it's like chewy and weird. Again, unbelievably greasy.
