The place gets crowded pretty quickly on weekdays during lunch. The prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious with a quick service. Order the mapo tofu and chicken with capsicum.

The braised shittake with baby bok choy, sautéed string beans with minced pork, and beef with broccoli were my favorite things that we ordered. Super delicious.

Roomy place and friendly staff. Food is good except the cardboard brown rice. Staff very attentive to my friend's choking on the uber spicy pepper for 45min. Good prices, big quantities.

Obsessed with the Sichuan Pork Dumplings. Get them with a side of white rice to soak in the red oil and you will have a wonderful meal.

Good for lunch, they're quick and relatively cheap. The braised mapo tofu is tasty, with a good spice level (hot) and none of the aftertaste that can be common in lesser Sichuan food.

Pork with garlic sauce - spicy with a hint of sweetness and flavorful.

The mapo tofu is the very spicey. Awfully spicey. The duck is duck skin. If I am white it doesn't mean I can't use the sticks - they do not bring it anyway. No water or tissues have been offered.

Get the ginger iced tea! It'll knock your socks off!! Service is not a typical Chinese restaurant. They will bring water an ask you for a drink right away!

The signature dish, mapo tofu, is delicious and spicy without a lingering heat. Get it.

Food was mediocre at best. Ordered dumplings and chicken fried rice. Dumplings were advertised as 8 pc, only 6 came in the order. Prices are a little expensive.. I've had better at hood spots.

Very busy around 12-1pm if walking in for take out order, place the order in advance for pick up.

This place is pretty authentic. Be prepared for rude diners (loogie-hacking and loud cellphone-talking included in price of meal).

This place only made me have explosive diarrhea one time. I'll be back for seconds!

The Sichuan pork dumplings with roasted chili vinaigrette are a-mazing. - Inspector

Don't come here expecting great service. They would've let us leave without giving us everything we ordered. When we asked for the item not delivered to be taken out of the bill they REFUSED.

Mapo tofu (without pork) was good, though I wish the tofu was softer.
Puneet KapoorJune 28, 2012
Ask for extra hot sauce on the side.

All 3 ordered dishes looked & tasted like mapo! Not a good thing. And only served cold Pinot Noir.

Еда отстой (сыпят побольше перца, чтобы замаскировать вкус, мясо вместе с кожей приносят), сервис отстой (официант торопил с заказом, не принёс палочки, а ещё клянчил чаевые). Не советую ходить.

当然食べるべきは麻婆豆腐、辛いけど美味しい、お勧めです。
