Zagat Ratings & Review
The “four-alarm” heat will “light up your taste buds” at these “popular” Chinese purveyors of “satisfying Sichuan specialties” at “bargain” rates; if the “curt” service and “scruffy” decor don’t quite “measure up”, you can “get it delivered.”

Food: 21 (very good to excellent)

Decor: 08 (poor to fair)

  “ We were seated promptly because there was no waiting line on a chilly Tuesday night. Our server did not introduce himself, but was affable and somewhat attentive. Out hot pot and ingredients were delivered promptly. Our order was filled correctly. The servings were ample, and the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. The beef tendon, scallops, peashoots and dumplings were particularly tasty. We enjoyed the rich, spicy stew that resulted from cooking all of the ingredients at the same time. I enjoyed meeting three new members of the group. Our conversation was quite interesting, as it touched upon the countries and restaurants that the participants had visited. We paid $23/person for dinner. ”
