“This places specializes in Sichuan fish with pickled mustard greens and that’s what I got here. It comes in 3 different sizes depending on how many people are eating, we got at XL since we had 6 ppl and it was more than enough. The fish was freshly cooked and the dish was quite authentic. We had some picky eaters and even they said it was the best Sichuan fish they had in the USA. We also ordered the sour and boiled fatty beef half/half, which was also phenomenal. Price was reasonable for the amount of food. I would stick with this dish and the spicy/sour boiled beef dishes here since this is their specialty. The apps were pretty good too. The glutinous rice dessert is a sleeper and recommended even from me who’s not a big Chinese dessert person. I would advise against getting the Americanized Chinese food here since it’s not their specialty and it wouldn’t be different from any random Chinese take out. This place is also byob without corking fee (at least no fee for beer/liquor, we didn’t drink wine).“

“Decided to drop in and order food after watching John Oliver’s piece on how Grubhub and others cut into the margins.I’m happy I dropped by because Vito was really helpful, provided some employee suggestions on sauces, which I would not have had through the apps.The service was quick, friendly, and portions were good. If most to go experiences were like this I could see myself dropping in to take out food more often instead of ordering through delivery apps.“

“The BEST Sichuan food I’ve ever had in the U.S, which is even better than the restaurant I tried in Shanghai China.
Szechuan Popcorn chicken is the best - Spicy, crispy, no skin, no born, all high quality meat of chicken.
Boiled pork blood and tofu in chili sauce- actually it is not only contained pork blood of tofu! It is also full of fresh veggies and Chinese ham, tastes super good, with huge size.
Golden veggies picked fat beef soup: very yummy, plenty of beef is provided, with glass noodles in the soup.
Sweet and sour fish & shredded pork with garlic sauce: very good, even better than Shanghainese food. My American friend who cannot eat too much spices spoke highly of them!
Fish and tofu: beautiful dish for people who do not like spicy food. And with ham on it, full of juices, very tasty.
Finally, shout out to Chef Xiong, he is really an amazing and talented cook! I hope I can come to eat again very soon!

Kid-friendliness: Even provide kids seat for our baby!“
