    Salt and Pepper Shrimp
    Lisa Z.

    Came here for Father's Day for lunch and there was no wait time. It's pretty decent Chinese food, the flavors were good but found the pork belly and shrimp a bit too salty. I wasn't expecting the halibut dish to be in a soup. Most sichuan dishes I order are usually in a dry pot. It was still good nevertheless. I would come again and request less salt because the prices were reasonable and there's a good variety of dishes. The interior wasn't anything aesthetic but thats usually a telltale sign that an Asian restaurant is good.

    Flounder, John's Style Crispy Calamari

    Took my daughter there for fried flounder, calamari, & double cooked pork belly--still amazing. Ordered take away--fried flounder, calamari, lamb 2 ways--again, delicious. Restaurant moved from the corner to the next space over. Much of the same staff as pre-pandemic. Omakase each Thursday night--can't wait to abandon my kids and feast! The online menu is more expensive than calling in, but we are just happy to support a local business that consistently has fantastic food. The car still smells like the lamb & aubergine in garlic sauce from take away 2 nights ago, so I have to stop myself from ordering it again.

    Pita Bread Soaked in Lamb Soup (羊肉泡馍) ($14) - aka paomo. It's good! Comes with mushrooms and wood ear

    Really wish I could leave a higher rating. My first visit here was amazing but my second was very disappointing. I recommend the items on the Noodle Bar Special menu, which has many Xi'an dishes. I think the texture of the hand-pulled noodles is pretty good here, not outstanding but definitely more elastic than the noodles at Lan Ramen in Princeton. They also have a separate Chinese menu, though not all the items I've tried from it have been great. Highly recommend: -Spicy Chicken with Bone w. Handmade Noodles ($14) - aka "big plate chicken". It's good, and the portion is big! Way better than the version at Lan Ramen. -Pita Bread Soaked in Lamb Soup ($14) - aka paomo. Good! Comes with mushrooms and wood ear. Don't forget to mix in the chili sauce and pickled garlic! Sort of recommend: -Chinese Hamburger with Pork ($7) - aka roujiamo. It's ok - the bread is a bit dense, and I found the meat slightly dry (it's not as fatty as at some other places). -Xi'an Liang Pi ($7) - aka cold-skinned noodles. Pretty good. Comes with wheat gluten and cucumber, and sauces to dip in. Ok: -Sauteed Kidney ($13) - pretty standard stir fry. I liked the addition of wood ear. Avoid: -Sauteed Mackerel w Corn Cake ($14) - sauce is way too sweet. There's barely any mackerel; the dish is mostly (dryish) corn cakes. I also really want to try the biang biang noodles with ginger scallion sauce (aka hot oil noodles) and the cumin lamb handmade noodles, but haven't had the chance to yet. I definitely plan to revisit and hopefully leave a more positive update.

    You can ask for the Chinese menu. It's OK, it's in English too. Service was great. Food was fantastic! Dining was comfortable and quick.

The sauce had just enough numbing warmth without overpowering the dish, and every bite was incredibly satisfying. The texture combination of silky wrappers and bold sauce made it an unforgettable starter. Beyond the appetizer, the restaurant offered a warm atmosphere and attentive service that made the dining experience even better. The presentation was thoughtful, portions were generous, and the flavors tasted authentic and carefully prepared. If you enjoy dishes with a little spice and a lot of flavor, the wontons in chili oil are absolutely worth ordering. I would definitely come back just for them.

When it comes to food, I never judge a burger by its bun, so thanks to Yelp for helping me find it. The sign in the window says "Asian fusion" which usually sends me running as it's often a cop-out label for bad mixed-up Asian cooking, but this is authentic y'all, meaning true-to-tradition dishes with a sometimes more contemporary application of ingredients or flavors. The "fusion" part must come from the fact that they have a small Taiwanese section as well as the main Szechuan/Sichuan menu, alongside a few familiar Chinese-American favorites like sesame chicken or broccoli x protein, so you can get that here too. Everything we ordered was phenomenal! Great flavors, generous portions, cooked with confidence and finesse. Compliments to the kitchen - they really know what they're doing. Not a single dish was lacking. They even put out peanuts at the start and serve fresh orange slices at the end of the meal. Very old school. We loved it all: * Salt & white pepper crispy chicken ("Taiwanese specialty") - well-battered and flavored, and perfectly crispy * Taiwanese minced pork rice * Chicken red curry - fabulous, with fresh vegetables and just the right balance of spice * Golden dish (fish) - very special dish in a salted duck egg yolk batter * Beef chow fun * Marinated crispy duck Wish I lived closer, but will definitely come back when we are in the area. Best of the best - very highly recommended!
