Taste :3.8/5Environment: 4.1/5Service:4.2/5I assumed they were trying deliver the cuisine in the high speed and result inThe taste is not authentic as we anticipated.

I have been to this restaurant a couple time. Definitely would like to come more often. I had tried their toothpicks lamb and it's was delicious. Fragrant cumin flavor with perfect amount of spiciness. Recently, I have fallen in love with their Dan Dan noodle. I have been ordering to go Dan Dan noodle. $9.99, it looks small. But they packed their noodle and it's actually 2x as many as you think there is. Their sauce is a bomb: numb, fragrant with sesame/peanut/nutty flavor with nice spicy flavor. Minced pork (some may think the portion of pork is small) and not too many other ingredients. But the sauce is definitely to die for.Absolutely delicious.

I was a regular here when I lived in LA. Came here at least once a week. Waited 3 hours the first time I visited and thought I wouldn’t return. After tasting the food, I was hooked! Honestly my favorite meals in the entire world have been here. That green and red sichuan pepper is something else. Cumin toothpick lamb. Boiled fish. Yummmm. Crispy crunch beef!!! Beyond excellent.

I was a little hesitant to try this place because I am not the biggest fan of spicy food, but a friend of mine said it was good. I'm super glad I tried, because it definitely hit the right spot. We had the Chengdu fried rice, Mapo tofu, and the green beans. Each dish was perfectly seasoned and the Mapo wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be. Came in on a Sunday night around 8 and got seated immediately. Overall, pretty satisfied and definitely want to come back again.

Very authentic and delicious. Cumin lamb skewers and pork intestine were my favorite!

Yummy, yummy, yummy!!!!!!Long time no Chinese food. We got Toothpick Lamb,Flavored Chicken in Chili Sauce and Boiled fish . Still delicious is still my favorite. The quality is excellent, And they will always be a very reasonable price.Everything good.Highly recommended!

This is one of the most authentic place I have ever been to for a long time.Pig feet is my one and only bias!!!
