I was in Austin for the weekend and found the Asia Cafe online because it had good reviews. Unfortunately, someone painted the entire shopping center black. I guess they got a special on cheap black paint. I almost turned around as that look is not at all inviting but I was there so gave it a try. It is a very basic restaurant, nothing fancy which is fine. Just order at the counter. I ordered the Spicy Chicken and it was spicy! It was made to order and the service was very fast. The order was large enough to take about half home which is seen in the take out box. Yes, that is half of the serving. I came back the next day and ordered the Mongolian Lamb. It was extremely tender and overall very good.
I've been coming here for years, everything prior to Covid was better than good and the prices were cheap, and food came out super fast. The restaurants dine in service had been closed through out covid so I'm happy that it has finally opened up, that's 2 yrs of waiting people!! The self service ice and water is gone. If you want a drink you have to buy them, which are almost 4 bucks for everything, I just sneak next door to the market and buy drinks. The cashier thought we didnt pay for our drinks but they dont sell Ramune!! The price for food has gone up which is understandable, so all dishes are avg 19 bucks or more. The food all came out super quickly. Got my fav dishes, Twice cooked fish and Beef and broccoli. The twice cooked was not as crispy and the beef and broccoli was a little sweeter than usual, but overall, still the same and satisfied, just a little more costly.
Big servings, tasty food! Recommend

This place is amazing. Super authentic delicious food. We drive out of our way to go there.
Green beans are the best. Tofu with crushed pepper was spicy. Good vegetarian choices.
Finally some Sichuan food there's spicy! From the outside, the restaurant looks small, but it's actually pretty big inside with lots of space and big tables, and even private rooms! Good taste, reasonable price.
Really expensive. Charged me 17.50 for snow pea leaves and small container . The cumin lamb was 17.50 also but was full with cabbage under neath and barely any meat. Rip off!!
This place is great! Fast service, friendly staff and the food is awesome. The szechuan cucumbers are an absolute must try, best we have had since China.
Always great hot and fresh food. I have tried several menu items and have not been let down. If you want something yummy and healthy I order the steamed shrimp and scallops and veggies ? and have them add a steamed jalapeno sliced in there if you want some heat. I had stir fry noodles with chicken shrimp and pork with jalapeno this evening.
