Reviews
- snooty_primroseThe tofu pudding with braised intestines was so good — the tofu was super silky and the intestines were so tender and flavorful, you can tell they cleaned them really well. The broth was spicy and savory, perfect over rice. I honestly could've eaten three bowls of rice with it. The meat dan dan noodles had that perfect chewy bite, and the pickled bean sprouts with crushed peanuts on top? Such a great combo, definitely tasted like the real Sichuan stuff. Place was clean and the staff were friendly, food came out fast too. Portions are generous, everything tasted fresh, and you can actually adjust the spice level which is a plus. Overall a really comfortable meal, I'd come back for sure.
