Go for the sticky and sweet General Tso's tofu, traditional wrinkly and savory Szechuan green beans, cold noodles with sesame, and chewy double cooked pork with hot and sweet peppers. Read more

Shredded pork with chili pepper may be one of the dishes I have ever eaten! Crab meatballs are amazing as well! I always try to get the brown sauce recipe but they guard it with their life!

The Dan Dan noodles are solo cheap and delicious. Great lunch specials and if you are frugal you can get a lot of food for cheap. This isn't your run of the mill Chinese food either.

The lunch specials are a lot of food for only $7.50! Full serving entree with a whole lot of rice, plus soup and an egg roll! Best Chinese food in Uptown

Be sure to check out the General Tao Tofu. I'm an unrepentant carnivore, but this is my favorite thing on the menu. Try it and you'll see why. Read more

Voted City Pages top ten takeout restaurants! With portions the size of placemats and spice levels that will warm a polar plunge participant.

Great soup and chicken dishes. Best is the seafood and tofu soup and the sesame chicken.

Voted Best Takeout by City Pages in 2012! Takeout is prompt, and the portion sizes are almost always good for multiple meals.

The lunch specials here are a steal. Not to mention, hot tea for .50 cents.

The atmosphere is quiet, but the food is great. Plus, it's not break the bank.

Xiao long bao (aka mini juicy buns) are very authentic and eating at Sichuan Spice made me homesick for China. Read more

Chungking spicy shrimp and traditional wok-fired green beans make this wee eatery a major player in the Szechuan scene.

Chung King Spicy Chicken is great: spicy without losing flavor.

The chicken with double chili will set your face on fire - in a good way. NOT for spice whimps.
Josh VolkJanuary 23, 2011
