This Chinatown newcomer serves extremely authentic, spicy, sour Sichuan food. Noodle soups are very good, inexpensive, and filling — other dishes will leave your mouth tingling too. WinstonWanders.com
Upvote3Downvote1- Jane L.March 5, 2020The Dan Dan Noodles are too Americanized but still tasty. The Hot Numbing Spicy Noodles are also good and at the right level of heat for a proper Sichuan dish.UpvoteDownvote
- Jane L.March 5, 2020Steamed Vegetables side dish (mustard greens) are delicious too. Not spicy at all and covered in a light soy-based sauce. Good option for vegans and vegetarians!UpvoteDownvote
Tobias SchmidtOctober 17, 2017Liked the noodles with peas and meat (not nearly as spicy as I had feared) but – and I know how weird that sounds given how pedestrian a dish it is – loved the cucumber salad.UpvoteDownvote
Melon LJune 3, 2017Lamb skewers are pretty spicy. Tan tan noodles are a must! They also charge 30 cents for a takeout container.UpvoteDownvote

Jacqueline L.October 30, 2018Chongqing Hot Numbing Spicy Noodle and tan tan noodles are heavy on the oil. Try the house cold noodles for lighter fare.UpvoteDownvote
