Such a hidden gem! Went there with my friends on the night of Chinese new year, and they were busy but not that crazy. You know they made it fresh. Cuz it took a while for the dishes to be served lol. Understand, cuz it’s the new year night. But the service was so nice and the waiter kept acknowledging we’ve been waiting and checking in with the kitchen. It was totally worth the wait! Two of us order three entrees which was a lot more than what you need… my favorite is the eggplant with spicy sauce. Also got the spicy fish, very generous portion. The spicy pork with carrots and zucchini was amazing! I told our server I really enjoyed the eggplant dish and then he started teaching us how to make it lol. Will totally come back to support their business! They do validate parking as well at the large lot.

This place offers some of the best food in all of Chinatown in my opinion. Every dish we tried was thoughtfully prepared, full of flavor, and presented with care. You can tell that the chefs take great pride in what they create because each plate felt like a true delicacy rather than something rushed or thrown together. The ingredients tasted fresh, the seasoning was perfectly balanced, and the portions were generous without compromising quality.
I enjoyed the experience so much that I am planning to bring my entire family here in the near future. It is the kind of restaurant that makes you want to share the experience with others. The atmosphere is simple and humble, but that does not matter to me at all because the real star here is the food. When a restaurant delivers this level of taste and consistency, the décor becomes secondary.
I sincerely hope they maintain this high standard over time because places like this are rare. When you find a spot that delivers exceptional dishes with such authenticity, you want to keep coming back again and again. I look forward to returning soon and enjoying more of the wonderful food they have to offer.

Yesterday, for our anniversary, we went to Dongpo Impression. We eat some pretty spicy stuff at home but the Three Treasure seagood soup at Dongpo was amazingly numbing filled with green Sichuan peppercorns and jalapenos. Unfortunately, the salt level was also very high which made it disappointing for us. The dumplings, green beans and Meizhou pork ribs were good — still salty but edible. Fun to try new things and we will try to recreate a bit of this with salt levels more to our liking. I think this is more our personal tastes rather than a criticism of the chef.
The restaurant is simple and lovely inside. The bathroom was a nice surprise, beautiful and very clean. Our server was attentive and answered our questions to the best of his ability.

Super tasty Sichuan food in the heart of Chinatown! We ordered the string beans, twice cooked pork, and cumin lamb – all of which were quite delicious! I feel like the twice cooked pork was absolutely packed with flavor and the pork was delightfully tender. Cumin lamb also hit all the right notes – spicy, savory, with amazing meat. Would highly, highly recommend for a Sichuan spot in the city!

The food has a very authentic Sichuan flavor, with a wide variety of dishes to choose from.
The Squirrel Fish is made with flounder fillets and costs only $20. It’s completely boneless, so you can enjoy it without worry.
The Dongpo Pork is also excellent—well-seasoned, tender, and melt-in-your-mouth. It pairs perfectly with the lotus leaf buns and is very satisfying with rice.
The Maoxuewang is truly authentic, with a bold and well-balanced numbing spiciness. It includes kelp strips, bean sprouts, sausage, pork intestines, duck blood, and tripe—very generous and flavorful.

The service and the food were lovely. They still found a spot to seat us despite being swamped and made sure we were comfortable too. The food was delicious we ordered starters and main dishes and they all came fast. They then packed up our leftovers for us aswell and were overall very nice.

Each dish was delicious! Our food arrived quickly and the vibes of the restaurant were great. We were afraid we weren’t going to be able to finish everything but nothing was leftover. I’d recommend the kung pao chicken!

Great food and great service. We ordered 8-9 items and everything was great. We ordered pick up on Christmas Day via a delivery service. Although that service was incorrect on pick up time, the restaurant made sure to expedite our order and got us out the door quickly with hot food. We’ll definitely go back.

Wonderful lunch, Chinatown was busy but we had a nice quiet lunch here. Not overly busy, which was surprising with the delicious food and fair prices. They had clean bathrooms for guests and the dining room was also nice and clean. They had good AC which was nice because it was so hot outside. The food was wonderful, with great flavors and generous portions. The service was also fantastic, I drank 4 or 5 glasses of ice water during lunch and my glass was never empty it was refilled at an impressive rate. Looking forward to dining here again.
