Bone-in fish cooked in very spicy broth on the table. Awesome! But don't go and then complain it was too spicy or that there were too many bones. That's how it works!!

Really tasty Sichuan food! The dishes have a nice kick, and there are plenty of options that aren’t too spicy too.

Went to have dinner here tonight. It's such a great place! The food was amazing it was very fresh. We ordered the Sesame Chicken and also General Tao Chicken. The service was great, and the pricing was great. There is a parking lot across the street with a $12 flat rate charge, so that was great. I will definitely be back. It was good y'all go check them out.

The fish hot pot here is super tasty. You get a whole fish in a shallow rectangular pot, and you can choose your broth and additions. Soup dumplings are all right; the other hot pot we tried with beef and spam (additions we chose) was not as flavorful as the fish hot pot.

Very expensive for the portion and food! We ordered a mixed mushroom stir fry which was $18 for a small bowl of very underwhelming mushrooms. We also ordered beef stir fry, which was 80% peppers and maybe like 5 pieces of beef and was also just average. Do not recommend.

Ordered many times previously but this time I got pork that is too tough and chewy to bite but the store does not admit and says it has always been like this. I could not bite and swallow it.. I have been here so many times and ordered online from this restaurant many times too. A little disappointed. Yes it's fried pork intestine, I have ordered this dish from your store more than 20 times, only today it's really not edible.

Excellent meal tonight. Very attentive service and excellent hot food that came out quickly. We ordered the cucumber, dry sauted green beans, spicy shredded beef and double cooked pork. Zero complaints and we can't wait to come in the next time we are visiting!

This place is amazing! The fish hotpot is packed with flavor—rich, spicy, and super satisfying. The fish is so tender, and the broth is just incredible. And that eggplant dish? Wow! The sauce is so good, and the eggplant is cooked perfectly—soft and so tasty. Even the green beans were spot on! I’m obsessed with both dishes and can’t wait to come back for more. If you’re into bold, delicious Chinese food, you’ve gotta try this place!

Went with a large group.
Mapo tofu - Ok
Stuffed eggplant - Good
Fried honey rice cakes - Very nice. Sweet and pillowy. Nice contrast to much of the other food
Grilled pig feet with cumin - As a friend of mine said it was like eating "pork flavored gummy bears." They gave us plastic gloves to eat them. They were ok but if I went again I'd try one of their other different rich, robust dishes
Smashed eggplant with preserved egg - Good. Very interesting.
Cold chicken with spicy sour sauce - Good
Pork belly and cucumbers with dipping sauce - Great presentation but flavor was a little underwhelming
Cold noodles with sour chili sauce - Excellent. Light, refreshing side dish with big sour and spicy flavor. Was my favorite dish on an all day Chinatown restaurant crawl.
Grass jelly - A light, mildly sweet and grassy dessert on the house
Great spot with a long, diverse menu. Definitely want to return and try different items.
Eat what's in my picture.
