It is a Michelin recognized (i.e., fancy) authentic Szechuanese restaurant. While I can't comment on the authenticity, the flavors are deeper and bolder than any Chinese cuisine I've ever had. My brother and I fight over which is better, the boiling fish or the dry pot. Really, everything we've had has been excellent. It's possible to go affordable here with something like a fried rice dish, but I recommend being adventurous and trying something new. Every dish is sharing size and a table of two could eat their fill with one or two dishes. They get busy during peak times but they're good at turning tables and I've never had a bad wait. I'll note that the food comes out suspiciously quick, seemingly regardless of what we order it takes around 5-10 minutes, even when we brought a larger party.

The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the food can take a while to come out, and the checkout process is also pretty slow. We usually end up going to grab our own takeout containers because it takes so long.

When I showed her a picture of what I expected, just a regular crispy lemongrass tofu I have had at a million thai restaurants, she said theirs just comes wet.

China Spring is my go-to spot for Chinese takeout, and it never disappoints! The menu is pretty typical of a Chinese takeout spot but the food is consistently delicious, and I've never had any issues with my orders. The owner is very nice, which makes supporting this place even better. Some of my favorites are the fried dumplings, mapo tofu, and fried chicken. They also offer a low-diet section with options like boiled beef, chicken, or shrimp with broccoli, which is perfect for a lighter meal. I wish they offered more traditional Chinese dishes but overall, it's a solid spot for tasty, comfort Chinese takeout food! read more
