Call before arriving if you’re wanting it to go. There’s not much to roam around here.

had to wait 30 mins to be seated at 7 pm on a Monday night. the place prob should be 2x bigger than it is. ordering was through the app only, hope they still order old school for older people who don’t do tech… the food was good, the flavor was good, it was a tad on the pricier side, but then they charged for rice, which was sad. the eggplant was just so so. also there no parking except for street, so prob won’t be my 1st choice for szechuan.

Thank you J Kenji for the recommendation! This was my first time eating LAs best schezwan food. The tooth pick lamb was fantastic and the egg plant was solid! This is the most authentic chinese food around. The spice and heat were nothing for the bland palate. Got the food to go for a group but I’d recommend eating in the restaurant if able. It was very clean and the staff were kind and considerate taking serious pride in the food and the history of its making.

Definitely the place to go for authentic Sichuan Chinese food. Food is spicy but there are options for milder dishes. Highly recommend the hot pot dishes. Wait can be a little long since there is not a lot of seating inside. Overall, the best Chinese food I’ve had and a must try for anyone!

This was an impulse lunch based on being in the area and reading reviews. We saw a lot of people enjoying their food but ours was not great. Sometimes it’s just not ordering the right thing. We saw Jonathan Gold rated this one of the Top 101 in LA, but that was a decade ago.

The food was absolutely horrible. You could tell immediately it’s not fresh. I came here once before Covid and it was fine but don’t know what happened to them. Also the service was bad too. The waitress literally threw the dish on the table. Do not recommend this place.

Really good. The Toothpick Lamb was a surprise and a highlight. It was very tasty, well seasoned and a delight because I don’t usually order lamb at many places. The Boiled Beef in Hot Sauce was the main reason for our visit and was really good. We were actually expecting it to be spicier but that’s okay because it was so good. We also ordered the Sauteed String Beans which I would highly recommend. Spicy and good flavors. I also ordered the Twice Cooked Pork Fried Rice which was awesome.

The food here is so good! Yes, they have spicy food. But it’s also quite delicious. Their fried rice is also pretty good even though it’s not spicy. You can ask them to make something not so spicy if you want to. The quality is excellent, and so is the service! I’m surprised to see how many non-chinese there were eating there. The spicy fish and lamb barbecue sticks quite good. So is the Chengdu fried rice.

Maybe this is just a preference thing. This place tastes authentic, no doubt. But it’s way beyond my own spicy tolerance level, both the regular and numbing spice. And the flavors themselves, im just not accustomed to. Maybe it’s the heavy use of herbs/spices that I’m not used to? This place is packed, so clearly it has fans :p.
