An absolutely fantastic feast! All of the food is incredible, and service is fantastic too- our waiter was so nice and even gave us a little extra to make up for when we wanted something on the menu that they had unfortunately ran out of, which was unexpected and very kind! Apparently in the summer they also have an outdoor patio that opens up, so I am excited to go back when it gets warmer! The lamb and dill dumplings were the first I've ever tried like that, and were simply delicious. This definitely just became one of my new favorites!

Really tasty Chengdu-style cuisine! They also serve probably the best Peking Duck in Chicago. Awesome all around.

They have multiple gluten-free menu items that are clearly labeled and delicious! I was pleasantly surprised that the dry-rub chille chicken was GF. I always enjoy the Szechuan green beans. They are super fresh! The vegetarians, gluten-intolerant, gluten tolerant, and meat eaters in our group were all happy with the selection and with our piping hot dishes. Great variety of tasty hot teas and a cozy, clean atmosphere - can’t be beat for flavorful and wholesome Chinese food!

Came here for a birthday dinner with a friend. Everything I ate was delicious, flavorful, not too salty. Even the cucumbers and garlic seemed like it might be basic but it was full of garlic flavor unlike you’ll ever expect. The braised beef noodle soup was a favorite and the xialong boa was served perfectly hot to where the soup filling didn’t burn your mouth. They were also the perfect size to pop right in your mouth whole and enjoy. The noodles you got to pick and they were clearly made in house and were delicious. I highly recommend trying dessert if you’ve never had it, they are more traditional and some of my favorites. Extremely delicious.
The setting is actually quite cozy and styled to be slightly upscale. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere felt calm. I had a lovely time and the food was comforting and nostalgic for me. I will definitely be back.

10/10 experience been here twice. The server js so kind and very attentive and you just feel good spending money here! I got the spicy beef noodle soup which wasn’t too spicy but was delicious and the rose herbal tea. I got another noodle dish previously both were incredibly delicious and served so fast!! Very well priced!

Great good, and service. Noah and Eric are great hosts. Food is awesome, especially for vegetarians also. Loved the Dan Dan noodles, dry chili chicken, vegetarian fried rice, dumplings, string beans.
Came here last night for the third or fourth time, and I just wanted to say I am amazed at how consistent and fast this place is. The service was great, and the food is very authentic. The servers move so fast to get waiting tables seated. It’s small and there were a few people ahead of us and we maybe waited 3 or 4 minutes. Everything we have tried has been delicious. I’ll add pictures next time we get to go. Great staple in the neighborhood. 👏🏼

My favorite place to go on Christmas. Food is amazing, service is great, vibes are very pleasant. I can actually hear people talk in this place even when it's full. Get a reservation early if you can. If not, get there right at opening and you can usually get a table.

Incredibly good Sichuan cuisine. Authentic yet modern and very very well made. Best crab rangoons I ever had. Get the dan dan noodles and the wontons.

A cozy spot focused on Sichuan noodles and dumplings. The Zhong wontons were nicely spiced and enjoyable, but the lamb and dill dumplings were a bit underwhelming - the filling felt more like a meatball than the textured meat-and-veg mix in typical dumplings. The noodles were the clear stars: both the Yibin flaming noodles and spicy beef noodles were super flavorful with satisfyingly chewy texture. Overall a solid and comforting Sichuan spot, especially if you’re in the mood for noodles.
