Pros: The food is good and they have a couple good vegetarian options, although not nearly enough.
CONS: atrocious customer service. More than once we've made an order for pickup and are waiting outside for an hour and we got text and email confirmation that the order was received and was being prepared and would be ready in 15 minutes. After an hour and a half, we get an email saying our order was canceled with no explanation or text message given. These guys need to step...read full review

Atrocious customer service -- or a complete lack of any customer service, rather. Want to wait for your food for over an hour only to find out most of your order was canceled as they "ran out" -- without any prior notification whatsoever? Call to ask a question about it only to find out that one number is out of service, and the other rings till they hang up? This is how this place handles their business regularly and repeatedly.If it was possible to give a -2 stars for service;...read full review

Spicy Tongue is a ghost kitchen located at the Adeline Food Hall that offers a diverse menu of spicy Sichuan dishes and other non-spicy options for delivery or pickup. The menu includes a variety of appetizers, special spicy dishes, seafood, chicken, pork, beef, and vegetarian options, as well as rice, noodles, and soups.
Despite its name, Spicy Tongue's offerings are not always extremely spicy. Customers have reported that some dishes, such as the Shredded Chicken with Green Onion Pepper Sauce and the Shanghai Style Braised Pork Belly, have an aromatic and slightly sweet flavor profile rather than a mouth-numbing spice level. The Chicken Chow Mein is a typical non-spicy chow mein dish.
While the pricing may be on the higher side, especially for delivery, the quality of the food is generally praised. Customers have enjoyed the tender and flavorful Braised Pork Belly in particular. With an extensive menu, Spicy Tongue offers a wide range of options, including some good vegetarian choices, making it a suitable option for late-night Sichuan cravings or when other local Sichuan restaurants are closed.
