It was my first time and I had a good hype for this place from my Asian friends. This place was packed on a weekend and I heard they are busy most weekends. The place is cozy and we had to wait 15 mins to get a table. Their service is friendly and quick. We got the bbq fish which is this location famous for. I have to say I was surprised by the size and quantity. It was a big fish and good for 3 to 4 people. Though the fish was big it was mostly bones and their broth was spicy and sour with ample of veggies. We got Jasmine rice to go with it and it was good. The fish was fresh and the broth was soothing. We also got complimentary Ube dessert. Overall had a nice time and will definitely come back to try out their other dishes.

We decided to give this place a try since we’ve enjoyed several great Sichuan restaurants nearby. We ordered the grilled fish, fried towel gourd, and pig ears in chili oil. The pig ears were decent, but the towel gourd tasted undercooked and lacked flavor. Our biggest disappointment was the grilled fish — the waiter said it was fresh catfish, but at a hefty price of $55.99, it turned out tough and tasteless. It also came with very few side dishes as you can see from the photos. One can definitely find much better options at nearby restaurants, where similar dishes usually cost between $32.99 and $42.99. With this experience, we’ve decided to cross this place off our future dining list.

Huge menu but I'm here to rave about their spicy dry pot. It's a huge portion to be shared family style. The combination of flavor and ingredient is incredible, haven't had anything as good for quite awhile. Personally I highly recommend the spicy dry pot with intestine. You can select spicy level. Plenty of parking in the lot. 5% off if you pay cash. Typical chinese restaurant, zero ambiance and mediocre service, but that's how you know it's authentic. Expect to pay 25-30 per person.

This was my first time here, and I came for the grilled fish, but it was really disappointing. I’m not sure what time the fish was cooked, but the inside was still cold and not fully heated. Definitely not what I expected-the waiter said it was fresh catfish, but at a hefty price of $59, it turned out tough and tasteless. It also came with very few side dishes .One can definitely find much better options at nearby restaurants, where similar dishes usually cost between $32.99

Food: 5/5 DELICIOUS! Got the medium spicy grilled fish, definitely SPICYYY. Super tasty, fish super fish. The catfish is killed right before we eat so you know it’s quality fish! Also got the salt pepper fried tofu, yummy as well! Wish the onion was more cooked thoroughly. Overall definitely recommend! Service: 5/5 fast on ordering, bringing tea to table, providing additional napkins/utensils when needed Ambiance: 4/5 on the dim side. The seats are bit narrow and small. Nice fish tank when first walk in though! Small cozy restaurant.
