If you have a group of people, you may order a special round shape bread (kind of) in advance(at least hours earlier). It is good. I usually order this item in advance whenever I have a group of people going there.

I have been in love with this hole-in-the-wall for years, It's a mom & pop operation, pop cooks and mom serves. Yet the food is amazingly good. The quality is far better than the price suggests. This is the kind of place you talk about with friends again and again. Like those places in N.Y. Chinatown or S.F. Chinatown. Spicy, tasty,, fine ingredients, generous portions, great preparation. Look around - most of the customers are Asian. My favorites: Hot Shrimp, Sliced Lamb (doesn't taste lamby) Roast Duck. Yummy,

Excellenttttt food. Read below ...

Prices are very reasonable.

This is Sichuanese (Schezwanese) cuisine - so lots of peppers used - spicy food.

If your Indian, there are a couple of items on the menu that I can suggest thaht will be an instant hit on the Indian palate:

1) Kung Pao Chicken
2) Garlic Chicken
3) Eggplant in Garlic/Basic/Blackbean Sauce
4) Tilapia (whole) in some kind of Garlic (mildly sweet) sauce.

As far as decor, don't expect much from this place. Service although is quite prompt, however, the waitress is very direct, I suspect this is more of a cultural thing though.
