Bad food with bad service

by PotatoDude

I work at a school nearby, and I decided to go to this place a few times because another place I always went to was temporarily closed. And I think I am done with this place after several trials. First, the receptionists/cashiers are not nice and kind. Then, more importantly, food is not good at all. I tried several different dishes, but all of them was subpar compared to the other place I used to go.

I feel sorry to write such a bad review, but this place needs to improve both its service and food, I think.

• Pros: Not sure
• Cons: Food and service

Ongoing bad service...for years now

by myoki

The food is decent here but the service is so horrendous, there's no justifying going back. I've tred it out maybe once a year for a few years now and every time I do, I wish i hadn't. I know several other people who had the same problems and just finally gave up on the place. The worst part about it is that the staff or owners don't care that they treat their customers poorly! With the thousands of other Chinese restaurants out there, I can do without this one. Perhaps the other location is better...

Authentic Szechuan... not for dabbling tourists

by eat_club

Great food. Nice and spicy, with a huge variety of fish and fowl, bovine and porcine... with some tofune thrown in for good luck. Most of the customers were Chinese... that's always a good sign! If you're looking for CHOP SUEY, you're in the wrong place. This is the real stuff. Greasy, spicy, we had a native Szechuanese with us... She said it's just like mom used to make.

Good thing they had those moving family (Chinese family, that is) style trays. Most of us shared everything. We all had Tsing Tao beer. The table next to us, some kind of Chinese wedding or graduation, drank 100% Budweiser... I guess it was exotic for them. --Eat Club Org is a roving group of NYC gluttons.

• Pros: authentic food, fast service, great for groups
• Cons: not for casual tourists

Average food at best- I don't understand the rave reviews

by goliathslw

I have to say, the food here was definitely average at best. Wasn't a bad place- but I don't think I'd make a trip to the area specifically for the restaurant. The food is spicy, so that's a plus for all those hot/spicy lovers out there. There was just nothing that stood out to me

A GRAND DISAPPOINTMENT!

by wise1too

I was extremely interested after reading about this place. I can only think that they have either changed hands or the great reviews were put up jobs. I've tried this place twice and found nothing to come back for. I must agree with the other negative reviews previously filed. It's the worst chinese food i've had in a long time. And I've been to China and the orient too! I'd go into greater detais about each dish but each was so poor that I'd rather not waste my time. Very few places are a total "do not return". This is one of the few!
