    They were nice enough to redo a dish after I reminded them of a peanut allergy. Their dishes are authentically spiced and carefully made. This is not an average Chinese restaurant. Order something unusual and you will be rewarded.

    The sizzling cumin chicken was great as were the green beans. Calamari was great too. We went on Xmas day so it was crowded, but overall enjoyable and food exceeded expectations. We’ll be back!

    Excellent Sichuan food. All the favorites are on the menu and they execute without being fancy. MaPo was great.

    The food is really good. We like the chef's special, lamb, pork with pea sprouts, dim sum (pork bun and siomai). Pork Trotter was very good but I was not in the mood for it.
