Bob Lee: Great place to get your hot and spicy Taiwanese food fix. You can get everything from spicy tofu to hot pot to chicken wings in a bed of red chilis to fatty pork shoulder...love it!
Taka T: One of the good Sichuan (Szechwan, Szechuan) joint in Oakland. If you like spicy Chinese food, give a try once at least. Chongqing Chicken 辣子雞, Mapo Tofu, Wonton in hot oil are highly recommended.

Rafi Syed: My ideal meal: paratha + dip, tea leaf salad, spicy tofu, chicken with basil (ask for minced chicken). Will blow your mind. Whiskey cocktails are all good as are the mojitos.
