The flavors are consistently amazing, portions are generous, and every dish feels like it was made with care. The Spicy Pork Knuckle is a must-order--tender, flavorful, and packed with that signature Sichuan spice. We also love the Liang Fen, Boneless Spicy Chicken, and Dry Pot Cauliflower. Every dish is full of flavor and pairs perfectly with a bowl of rice. The restaurant is clean, the service is friendly, and the food always comes out quickly. There are plenty of Sichuan restaurants in Rowland Heights, but this one stands out for its authentic taste and consistency. Highly recommend if you're looking for delicious Sichuan food in the area!

We de used to punish ourself and order everything spicy and tho we did not regret it, it lived up to the name. Clean, friendly, showing the World Cup, would absolutely come again.

Busy spot for spicy Sichuan lovers! I think it's important to preface that there will likely be a…read morewait, even at odd hours. It's worth it if you can take the heat. The shop is small and service is alright but I'm here for the food anyway. My fav dish is the Sichuan kung pao chicken. It's got the tang and spice that the Cantonese version doesn't have. Another great dish is the kidney stir fry, but it's extremely spicy and there is no option to adjust spice level. They use the same base for beef throat and kidney stir frys. The stir fry beef was a disappointment due to lack of interesting flavor and soupiness. Also everything is quite oily, so be prepared to feel heavy after eating. Lastly, it's quite pricey compared to a lot of other Sichuan restaurants in the area.

I revisited during the week for lunch before they close at 2:30PM…read more For two people, we asked for two bowls of rice, but they brought out a red rice bin with lid. We ended up having leftover rice, and they let us pack it home. Farmer style pork Beef dry pot Boiled Fish with tofu (fish filet, not snakehead) The food is just as good as I remembered. This time the server lady didn't speak English. She offered cold vermicelli or cold noodles on the house for spending $50+. I opted for noodles, which had some cooked bean sprouts. They came to our table to collect payment on their iPad, so I used Apple Pay.

As my family and I arrived for dinner, we were seated right away. Between the four of us, we ordered five dishes (forgive me I do not have all the names listed on the top of my head)- mapo tofu, string beans, broiled fish, garlic chicken, & spicy bite sized chicken! Each dish was absolutely delicious. If you like spicy food - it was a great balance between numbing and spice. The service was absolutely amazing as well - they always insured that our tea pot was refilled, and that we were tended to. As the check came, our servers kindly wrapped up our food for us! We'll definitely be back next time

I've been coming here at least once a week for the past five months, and this place continues to…read moreimpress every single time. The service is consistently great... attentive, efficient, and genuinely welcoming. Fair warning for anyone new to Sichuan cuisine, the dominant flavor is "spicy". That said, the dishes are not just about heat... they're layered, aromatic, and incredibly well-balanced. Every dish I've tried has been outstanding, both in flavor and presentation. If you're a fan of bold, authentic flavors and reliable service, this spot is definitely worth visiting. Tip - If you're new to the cuisine, I strongly recommend getting everything MILD spicy. I've been told by some of my colleagues that MILD spicy is still pretty spicy, so be warned. With that said, strongly recommend the dishes below. Lamb with Cumin 11/10 - My favorite dish here by far. Aromatic, flavorful, and the spices are just on point. Dan Dan Noodles 9/10 - Solid and consistently good. The sauce is properly seasoned and truly compliments the perfectly cooked noodles. Shredded Cabbage with Pork 9/10 - Not to be confused with twice cooked pork. This dish is so simple and bland looking, but it's packed with flavor... so good! Garlic Pork Belly 8/10 - This is a cold dish. The meat was perfectly cooked and properly coated in chili oil. Solid and consistently good. Kung Pao Chicken 8/10 - In my opinion, it's an elevated Kung Pao Chicken. Solid and consistently good.

It can get really busy, though, so expect to wait or just call in your order and take your food to go. I recommend the soy sauce tofu with beef dish. It's fire. Massive W. Gen Z words. Good.

She checked on me, brought me hot water, and kept making sure I was okay throughout the meal. Since I can't eat spicy food, she also helped recommend some non-spicy dishes for me, which I really appreciated. This is actually the second time I've been served by Sunny, and both experiences were amazing. She was smiling the entire time, super patient, and never made me feel like I was bothering her. She's just so warm and approachable. I'm really thankful for her kindness, and I highly recommend this place. The service here is seriously so good!

The fat is fully removed from the skin. The skin is crispy. The pancake that come with the dish is super delicate so you won't be eating too much carb. It comes with two duck legs unlike Duck House. 5/5 Eggplant dish is also great. Eggplant isn't soggy. The spice is highly enhanced. The pork belly is thin cut and tender. 5/5 Boiled fish definitely got me addicted. I enjoy the numbing sensation to my lips. The dish has an adequate level of spiciness that I can eat. 5/5 Garlic pea root is super fresh and crunchy. It is not soft or soggy. The garlic, wok seared flavor is outstanding. 5/5 Shredded pork has a just right spice to it. The pork is tender and not overly fatty. 5/5 Osmanthus soup for dessert is a must try! It is simple yet so hearty. It is not too sweet either. The tang yuan is still chewy and elastic after leaving in the fridge for a couple days. They're not hard at all then. 5/5 The entire restaurant looks so fancy with private rooms too. I definitely will take my parents here next time. I love this place.

We visited on a Saturday and immediately felt unwelcome. When we arrived, there were plenty of…read moreempty tables, but when we asked if we could be seated without a reservation, the staff member didn't acknowledge us directly. Instead, they called across the room to a coworker to ask if we could be seated. Once seated, we ordered quickly using the iPad. In fact, the two tables next to us were still placing their orders when we had already finished. A staff member even came by to confirm our order, so we assumed everything had gone through correctly. After waiting over 30 minutes, we noticed that tables who had arrived and ordered after us were already receiving their food while we still hadn't received anything. We tried several times to get the attention of the staff to ask about our order, but all four employees we attempted to flag down ignored us. Eventually, one staff member finally responded. She checked her iPad, didn't provide any update or explanation about our order, and simply walked back into the kitchen. At that point, we decided to leave. The entire experience was frustrating and disappointing. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and it seemed like the staff didn't want us there. What made it even more noticeable was that they appeared much friendlier and more attentive to the neighboring tables.
