An authentic Szechuan experience. The dishes are rich in flavor, beautifully balanced between heat, aroma, and depth — exactly what real Sichuan cuisine should deliver. The broth bowls are comfort and craftsmanship in one: layered, spicy, and genuinely satisfying. The atmosphere feels like a hidden gem for those who appreciate real regional cooking. A perfect place for anyone seeking true, specialty Szechuan flavors.

Spicy deep fried chicken/ la ji zi is delicious. But the grilled fish was horrible (I forgot to take a picture). DO NOT ORDER THE GRILLED FISH. They tasted old, when we asked the staff, he said none of the fish there is fresh.

Great new find! Delicious and oh man so spicy (you can ask the restaurant to tone down the spice if you want it milder). A lot of new dishes recently introduced.

I'm a regular here because it's great value and delicious food. If it's your first time, you have to get the deep fried eggplant (even if you normally don't like eggplant). It slaps. Nothing is really that spicy except for the dry pot on some days. The dessert menu is hilariously long and the later you go, the more is sold out. The menu changes a bit here and there - I wouldn't recommend getting the new or special items. Sometimes they're good, sometimes they're meh. Speedy service, big portions, cash discount. I love this place.

Slow kitchen but great food

First time real Chinese for me and not some made up European shit. Therefore I was a bit scared but was pleasantly surprised. I can recommend but as a European I'd be careful with their definition of spicyness. If they said it they mean it ;)

Fantastic spot for authentic Szechuan cuisine. The food tastes 10/10 and the service was friendly and quick. The translation of the menu is slightly off as some items didn’t get properly translated from Chinese to english.
Overall, 10/10, will come back again!

Good-sized portions and fast service — we were seated right away and our food came quickly.
The orders work through an app, so don’t expect the usual restaurant service. Staff only came by to drop food and change the complimentary water bottle, which made it a bit hard to ask questions or get recommendations.
The place feels cozy, but the food was just okay. We tried the black truffle stir fried beef — tasty but way too oily, and the texture of the meat was rubbery. We even ordered extra rice to balance it out. Also, the plastic cups for water felt a bit cheap for a sit-down restaurant.
It was busy and most tables were ordering a variety of dishes, so maybe that’s the best way to enjoy this place.
The menu was confusing though, and without guidance, we just went with what we knew. Overall, cozy spot with quick service, but food and experience didn’t fully meet expectations.

The food here is great, better than any other Chinese place I have tried. The portions are big, flavours are great, and the staff are all super friendly and nice. Hopefully they open more locations!
