Excellent and affordable food. A great recommendation by an acquaintance who frequently visit their child studying at UVA. Portions were sufficient that we could make a light dinner with the doggie bags. Parking was plentiful.

Food is decent for the price. Good service - friendly and attentive.
The fried rice was just rice - no veggies :(
Interior needs new paint. Otherwise clean.
Not noisy - there were TVs turned on but no sound which was great for being able to have conversation.

We came on a Sunday and the food was absolutely incredible. Among the best authentic Chinese I've ever had in America. We loved it so much we came back for all our meals in Charlottesville. That said, food on Tuesday and Wednesday were just okay / mediocre in comparison to Sunday, even when we ordered some of the same stuff. Not sure what happened.
Service was a standout for all times we visited.
True Szechuan place. All the staff are...
