Fantastic authentic szechuan food. The dry pot cauliflower was the best thing I've ever eaten - a must try! We also got the Chongqing popcorn chicken, short rib, and spicy wontons. All were absolutely incredible dishes, you could taste the quality and the flavor was out of this world. Service was quick and very nice! Will definitely be back, and recommend to anyone who is looking for some authentic szechuan cuisine!

Had the Black Pepper Beef and it was so good. For me the spice was good not too hot at all. The rice was excellent too. I will return for this again.

The mangolian beef is not made for $22+ I expect flank steak which is traditional in mangolian beef not even a hot pepper 🌶️ on the entree which again is traditional.
The Salt and pepper pork was all batter no flavor at all, not even salt on that batter, it was a terrible and a big disappointment the white rice was dry, $60 for 2 entrees and pot stickers. Not to mention the rude service we received, you have to ask for napkins and basics which seemed to be a bother.
Also not very clean either.
Don’t waste you money on this place like i did

The food is absolutely amazing. Its the best Chinese food I have ever had. Its becoming our goto place after Sunday services.The only thing stopping me from giving this place a 5 is there is one particular waitress that is not friendly. She almost seems like she is inconvenienced that she has to wait on us. We asked for spice level modifications on our food, and she said it couldnt be done, even though we knew it could, as our waiter the last time had no problem requesting it. Even then, this review is more like a 4.5 and if they ever do something about her attitude, I will happily revise my rating to a 5. It wont stop us from coming here, but Ill probably groan every time we get this particular waitress.

Some of the best food in the city. Beef noodle, short ribs, popcorn chicken, cucumber salad, and dry pot cauliflower were all incredible. Huge portions, we should have shared more. You could easily share a single order of anything between a few people.

Everything was delicious! Place was very welcoming. Wonderful service and quick. The portion of the food was okay. Not too small and not too big. We ordered one appetizer and two entrees and still had plenty to take home for another meal. For appetizer, we got mashed eggplants and century eggs. For entrees, we had the Spicy Pork Knuckles and Storm Fish Fillet. The Pork Knuckles is exceptionally good. The flavor was amazing. The spice was caramelized onto the pork skin with a tag of crispness and gelatinous. Sooooo good. And the fish was also amazing!

The food is really really good. The pork intestine is crispy on the outside and fatty in the inside. The eggplant is so delicious. The beef and pepper is plainly perfect. And to top it off nothing is too salty. And the dessert, the fried sticky rice bun is just so so good.

Been here a few times now and it is one of the most authentic Chinese spots in the city. Brought my Chinese friends along and they fully approved and you can tell just by the crowd in there.
Weekday visits are pretty chill but weekend dinner time gets busy, just something to plan around. Also a heads up on parking, the lot isn't very big so when it's packed it can be tough to find a spot. Would recommend carpooling if you can.
I have a pretty low spice tolerance but there are still so many delicious dishes to choose from if you look around the menu. The soups are so hearty and comforting. Insider tip: the tofu egg dish is not on the menu but ask for it anyway. It is so worth it and the best way I can describe it is like eating a savory cloud puff. So unique and so good.
The service is always super efficient, food comes out fast, and the staff will get you in and out. Every single dish I've had has been full of flavor and nothing has missed yet. Would absolutely come back and highly recommend.
