This place was excellent. Substantial menu and can pick you heat level. Service was great but this place is small. 6 booths inside and 3 small tables outside facing the street. Waiter was very informational and all the food great. Located uptown from the Cove near the Bishop School. I will be going back

The Szechauan Chicken is really good. I like how you can adjust heat and ingredients easily when ordering on website. Also the pictures of each dish is on point.
The garlic sauce is top notch, the vegetables are well proportioned. The total price is rather high ($25 w/an employee tip automatically added to your bill. Nevertheless, the dish is outstanding.

I hidden gem in the heart of La Jolla. While in the area I was craving some Chinese food and stopped in. The moment you arrive you’re greeted with a nice welcome.

The moment you sit down your drink orders, take it. After looking at the menu, I’ve decided to order a chicken fried rice and chicken pot potstickers.

The food portion was very generous. Potstickers were perfectly pan fried. The chicken fried rice was in a large portion.
