“The bestest Szechuan restaurant we've ever been to in NC!!!! Portion sizes are huge and such reasonable pricing!!!! Prompt and friendly service. Food is fresh, hot, sizzling and the smells are intoxicating that your stomachs will growl and rumble when you're waiting for food to arrive.Their fried intestines, dry hotpot, crispy fish, crispy beef, are our faves!!!!! Can be quite spicy depending on dishes. But its such a good burn lol.“
“An outstanding Asian cuisine restaurant. We believe it is the best in the area. We have been there numerous times to try different menu items. All have been outstanding. The menu is extremely large and almost overwhelming. The outstanding service personnel can help you navigate the menu if asked. We will continue to go back to try different menu items. Don't be afraid if the parking lot seems empty. They do a very large pickup service.“
“The food was really good. We went with a friend who is Chinese and she ordered for the whole table. We got 14 different plates of food. I would recommend the 'Squirrel Fish' it's fried fish served in a sweet sauce. The eggplant was also good and our favorite were the greens with garlic. Excellent. The dumplings aren't worth it. The dough was too thick. And the service wasn't great. But overall we had an enjoyable experience.“
