“My new favorite place.”

My new favorite place. Love the original and fresh seasonings. Taste explosions of flavor. General tso’s chicken was great. Appetizers were so scrumptious. Great wine selection. Nice waiters. Beautiful decorations.

“Absolutely amazing service.”

Absolutely amazing service! The staff made sure that we were taken care of - checking that we were able to order food, kept our water topped up! The only minor inconvenience was the bathroom upkeep, but as it being a new restaurant, it wasn't anything worthy of a lower than 5 star review. Will definitely be back!

“One of my absolute favorite foods is dumplings.”

One of my absolute favorite foods is dumplings. Even though this traditional Szechuan spot has multiple locations in the city, I was super excited to see one was coming to Edgewater bc I’ve heard their Szechuan dumplings were legendary. Let me say these are some of the best dumps I have ever had, hands down. The Zhong dumplings are a delicacy, crown jewel level. The wontons are amazing, and my personal favorite noodle dish “heart breaking bean jelly” is cold, tangy and numbing in all the best ways. I think about these dumps A LOT. Also good: xioa long boa soup dumplings, ants climbing vermicelli, sweet and sour pork rib, and eggplant. A+ dumps!!

“Amy was our server and she did not disappoint.”

Amy was our server and she did not disappoint! The service was amazing, the food was probably some of the best Chinese that we've ever had in Chicago and the restaurant was spotless. I can't wait to go back!

“The food is great here.”

The food is great here! Earlier reviews expressed concerns of food taking a while to come out and I would have agreed when I visited the week they opened. But, the food comes out much more quickly now and it's still just as delicious 😋

Very good, very spicy (for me at least with low spice tolerance), and very painful (during and before eating if you know what I mean). Lots of food choices from Xichuan, ranging from fried, noodles, soups, and more. While not my favorite kind of food, it was very tasty and would always bring friends who love spice to this place. The parking is horrendous though so definitely think about that. And the location is so busy, and we walked in and wait a good 15 minutes or so before our table was ready.

“I’ve been here a couple times recently and I really do think there is some quality food here.”

I’ve been here a couple times recently and I really do think there is some quality food here. The Mapo tofu is really yummy and not too spicy. Honestly, I feel like they are holding back on spice because I feel the same about the dan dan noodles. The American Chinese options like orange and sweet and sour chicken are good. The orange chicken actually tastes like it has orange juice and the breading is perfect. Also, big fan of the sichuan sausage. My biggest issue of this place is the rice not being free. Seems a little odd. Still believe this will be a go to spot for me.

“Cozy atmosphere and attentive service.”

Cozy atmosphere and attentive service. The noodles were subpar.I had come here for the gizzard ,but what i got is not what I was expecting cause those were cut into tiny little pieces mixed with some vegies.It was hard to identify the gizzard in the dish. Would recommend the beef soup.
