The twice cooked pork, sautéed string beans, and yangzhou fried rice here are all pretty good. The owner is very sweet and the service is super quick. Glad to have such a homey chinese spot on the upper east side.

Less than half way through my meal, which did taste good, UNTIL I bit into something crunchy and bitter. I took it out my mouth to find that it was a bug! I was beyond shocked and disgusted. It was not a fly btw, a real bug. I should have went back for a refund but couldn’t be bothered. I understand that in a restaurant these things can happen but it’s still unacceptable.

This place is a hidden gem. Nothing fancy but some of the best Szechuan in NYC. Definitely go for the Kung Pao if you're undecided. The noodles are fantastic too.

This restaurant is not suitable for vegetarians. I am a pescatarian and my wife is a vegetarian. Every single dish that we ordered was cooked with chicken broth. Including dishes listed in the vegetable section of the menu. This is not that unusual, but I think the menu should make a point to inform customers.

The food and service are excellent. You never feel rushed. Their dumplings are really good. I will come back next time I am in the area.
