What an experience. Food and service were phenomenal and the food and drinks. Wow. Great Szechuan taste. Super authentic. My new favorite chinese spot in the city!! The Fried fish and green beans with eggplants were amazing. All the sides and appetizers as well were phenomenal.

This was my 2nd time here and it was just as good. We ordered 3 things to share- the kung pao chicken, shredded beef with green chili and the shrimp fried rice with sausage. The food is delicious.

Great restaurant, 100% Chinese flavors. Of course you will never find the level of spicy just of some dishes but we are always an nyc... to go back. P.s great service: a dish arrived late and were offered ice cream.
