Authentic, Fresh and Amazing. To the new owner and chef of the resturant, you have brought this place back to its prime and have brought back some amazing sezchan foods.I highly reccomand the Fuqi feipian or Couples Lungs(?)The red bean buns are also very tastey.Overall 8.5/10Need some more active waiters!!!

We really wanted to like this place, but it fell short in so many ways. The food was bland and the service was chaotic. We had 3 people take our order and there was an obvious breakdown in communication amongst the staff. We had to remind them several times about our drinks. They forgot our soups (eventually arrived at the end of our meal) and our food came out without our ordered rice ( I was surprised they charged extra for that). The staff are nice, but the food wasn't good, and they don't function well as a team.

Wow, I love this place. The staff are so casual and nice. The food is top tier, taste much more rich and savory compared to your average Chinese takeout. Food is fresh and out FAST. Portions are generous, the beef fried rice had as much beef as rice, I LOVE them for that. 10/10 grab a bite

One of the worst Chinese restaurants in this area, especially for those wanting authentic Chinese food. Not only the food tastes bad, the owner has a very attitude. The prices on their website are NOT the price on the bill, it's 40% higher!

Great Sichuan Chinese food. Not good if you think chop sued is the epitome of Chinese food. Loved the salt and pepper

I was looking for a sitdown Chinese resturant for lunch and found this place online. The food was okay. I had egg drop soup and beef and broccoli. I also asked for a glass of wine. The wine tasted old and nothing like Pinot Noir. I told the waiter and he shrugged me off. I placed the wine at the end of the table where it sat for the rest of my meal. When the bill came i saw that I was still charged for the glass of wine that I could not even drink. I signed the CC recipt and and then stood up to leave. The waiter followed me to the door and said "no tip?". I explained to him "I told you that I had a problem with the wine and you made no attempt to fix the situation or even offer me another option which I did not appreciate. So yes, no tip". What happened to customer service and the nerve to confront me about a tip...

VERY delicious!!! Better than some expensive fancy chinese restaurants. I think most Americans would like LaZiJi (Spicy friend chicken with peanuts). I love LaYü (Spicy fish with bean noodles). That and some Sapporo beer and some tea, and it's a very comfortable and delicious meal.

Food is good but service is horrible. I made an online order of kungpao chicken & two rice. For whatever reason, I was only charged for one rice (according to the owner). The owner got on my case & demanded I pay because she will lose money. I pulled out my credit-card & she said $10 minimum…. At this point I became irritated and pointed to the receipt which states 2x rice & kungpao chicken. The total was in the correct amount for the three items. Owner needs to learn their own ordering system. They didn’t lose any money, but they lost a customer.

My mother often takes me to this restaurant “ Lakeside Asia Café “ for dinner with her hometown friends. Two of my favorite dishes are Chongqing spicy chicken and Spicy Sichuan fish fillet which are very delicious.
