Szechuan Cold Noodles blew me away with perfect texture and taste and the mouth tingly heat that sneaks up on you. They were garnished with chives and there was plenty of chili oil for a thorough coating. Also tried the Boiled Beef with Sichuan Pepper & Leek. Nice and tender, very flavorful, slivered garlic and cilantro were in the mix. You like it spicy? This one's eye-watering. It was great. That little hot pepper symbol on the menu has meaning! They also serve the Americanized favorites, for less adventuresome palates. Very cute and cozy inside. Small. I believe there were six booths, with table service. I saw an older Chinese man making dumplings by hand at a side table. The lady who was waiting tables also took care of me, very sweet and friendly. I hope to get back here for dine in before long.

There was just one girl at the counter taking orders and she brought the food out to us. She was very polite and helpful. They were out of several items tonight including Ramen. Not sure if that's a frequent occurrence, so maybe call ahead. Happily for me they had what I came for: Boiled dumplings, light and tender and nicely stuffed. Came with a gingery soy dipping sauce. They had dark vinegar on the tables which I love to have soak into the dumplings after piercing them. My brother's wife is from China and she clued me in to that method of enjoying dumplings. Cumin Lamb and Cumin Beef. Make sure you tell them you want it spicy. She had ours kicked up and both were great. We found the beef to be more tender than the lamb. Both had good flavor. Portion was fair for the reasonable price. Szechuan cold noodles- I ordered these to go, for tomorrow, but I took a little taste. Now the noodles are super thick, which is not my preference, but they're coated with flaming hot chili oil and garnished with plenty of thin and crispy cucumber slivers and it's gonna be just fine. The decor is eclectic, lighting is a bit steampunk, modern Chinese music is playing. Beverage choices limited, we just shared a bottle of water. I'd love to try the Ramen sometime but will definitely call ahead.

There was a huge line, mainly for the Mongolian-grill setup. We opted for something off the short pre-made menu. Sweetie had chicken stir-fry, and I had General Tso's. We shared some crab Rangoon, which were pretty darn good for something that was probably frozen. The entrees were decent, nothing spectacular, but with fresh veggies, probably frozen meats, and good rice. Portions and prices are good. Service was disorganized, but the wait wasn't too long. Probably won't be back, but I wish I'd had something like this handy when I was a student.
