This place is so cool. It's a hole in the wall with spotty service and EXCELLENT food. I come here when I need a Sichuan pepper fix and want to feel like I'm breathing out LIGHTENING!
I get the dan dan noodles and mapotofu.

Food is always so good and consistent. This is exactly what you think a good Chinese restaurant should be like!

If you want delicious Sichuan food, this is the place to go! We had a large group so the staff were a bit overwhelmed but, they did a great job with a positive attitude.

Outrageously good Sichuan food. Everything was fresh, and prepared perfectly. The service was attentive and responsive. This is a nice, quiet restaurant without the noise of most restaurants with food this good. There aren’t many hidden gems in Austin these days, but this is one. Order authentic dishes and be blown away.

It would have been 5 stars across the board but the man working the front of the house was rather unpleasant and seemed unhappy to be there.
Amazing what a smiling person who is happy to see you can do for a business.

Excellent authentic Szechuan-inspired food, not the dumbed-down American-style that often passes for Szechuan food in other restaurants. Convenient location off Westgate Blvd, almost next door to Black Swan Yoga. I will definitely return for more!

My husband and I recently moved here from NYC and finally found our go-to Chinese restaurant. The food here is better than anything we could get in our neighborhood in NYC and when we ordered over Thanksgiving it also got my mom’s seal of approval.

Favorites so far are the tofu dry pot if you like spice, or the home style tofu if you want something milder. I’m also a big fan of the green beans, broccoli in garlic sauce, and vinegar cabbage. Every time I order I get large portions, and they always understand when I explain that I’m vegan and suggest new dishes. Can’t wait to try more.

This place has seen better days, unfortunately. Food was not good and the whole restaurant was filled with the eggy smell of egg drop soup that was sitting in a corner for take out orders.

Food is loaded with crystalline MSG and drenched in seed oils. It is overpowering and quite honestly disgusting. It is lower than cattle feed. Absolute slop
