Amazing Asian Cuisine! By far some of the best Chinese food I have ever enjoyed. The duck was fabulous – crispy and moist. The orange chicken was by far the best I have ever had. It was not sweet, perfectly seasoned with veggies intricately sliced. The Chow Fun noodles were smoky and beef was tender and moist. The service was impressive. Overall, an excellent dining experience. Everyone walked away satisfied and happy!

Ordered the mapo tofu with egg drop soup and the General Tso’s chicken with wonton soup. Portions were on the smaller side, and the mapo tofu was a bit heavy on the chili paste, but the rice and egg drop soup were spot on. The service really stood out: the waiters were excellent and very kind. Overall, a pleasant experience

The food was excellent! especially the Ma Paul Tofu (Mapo Tofu). The flavor was rich and perfectly balanced. I arrived a little before noon, so I was lucky to get a table immediately without waiting. The taste definitely lives up to the Michelin award.

Phenomenal Sichuan food! Every dish was authentic and packed with flavor. The restaurant is very comfortable and has a great vibe, but what really stands out is the staff—they are incredibly friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

We came for the braised pork with abalone, and it did not disappoint. The pork was fresh, tender, and perfectly balanced with just the right hint of sweetness. The abalone was delightfully tender and free of any fishy taste. The braised scallop was an unexpected highlight — paired with bamboo shoots and broccoli, it created a refreshing and flavorful combination. Even the watermelon at the end was pleasantly natural-tasting, not overly sweet. Overall, a wonderful experience, and we’d gladly come back again!

Came here mostly for their La Ma Ti Hua (老妈蹄花 pig trotter soup). This dish is unbeatable across Manhattan. The rest is decent as well, but not particularly impressive. Pretty solid traditional Szechuan cuisine, could be a bit spicier in my opinion, probably toned down to accommodate the general audience.

The fish and duck dishes are also great choices and I highly recommend anyone who hasn’t tried it give it a try here – they’re tender and flavorful, not too spicy and not too many bones. Worth giving it a shot

Service really matters in a restaurant, and unfortunately this experience was disappointing.

When the food was served, no napkins or plates were provided. These are very basic things, and having to ask for them takes away from the dining experience. Even more frustrating, our dishes were cleared before we had actually finished eating.

Good service is not just about bringing food to the table — it’s about attention, timing, and respect for the customer. Tips are usually a reflection of the overall experience, and details like these do make a difference.

I hope the management can pay more attention to service standards in the future.

Authentic Szechuan – we love the savory meat and fish dishes and it pairs well with the stir fry veggies. Must try. And then make sure you book a flight to Sichuan, China. And you can truly experience the full extent of how authentic this Sichuan cuisine is

We have traveled through 30 countries and we love to eat at different restaurants and we love Chinese cuisine! This Chinese restaurant has a Michelan indication and we love it! We ordered the orange chicken and the fried chicken Rice, which came with delicious soup. It is certainly our new favorite Chinese restaurant in New York!

The food was great and the environment was so peaceful, calming, and overall so warm. I totally recommend this spot, and the area it’s in is on a non-busy street! Perfect after shopping and you just want to relax.
