  • Swung by here for lunch on a Saturday. We were seated and serviced quickly in the mostly empty restaurant, and service was attentive and super efficient throughout the whole meal. My S.O. and I ordered the SPICES CHILI POT with vegetables, the DOUBLE COOKED pork, and the CUMIN STYLE lamb. Each dish came with a choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup or a salad and a bowl of rice. I appreciated the choice of brown rice, which most traditional Chinese restaurants don't provide. Portion sizes for our dishes were on the small side, even for lunch portions. Although all three plates were decent enough, we found the flavor to be a bit off for each. The double cooked pork was both our favorites by far, though I would have appreciated much more black bean flavor than was added--I felt that the pork was pretty bland on its own (besides its intrinsic porkiness) and wasn't able to absorb much of the flavor at all. My fiancee is a pork belly slut and therefore had no complaints. The spices chili pot was rather lacking in spices--namely, chilis for heat and Sichuan pepper, which was largely absent in the dish. I definitely appreciated, however, that they accommodated my vegetable-only order of the dish, which isn't a choice on the menu. The cumin style lamb was the biggest disappointment. My fiancee complained that the lamb itself was lacking its distinct grassy lambiness ("This could be beef, and I wouldn't know the difference."), and I complained that it just didn't taste as the traditional dish ought to--the flavor was all cumin and nothing else--no coriander, no pepper (black, white, or Sichuan), no sesame, no soy...just...straight up...cumin, overwhelmingly so. The name of the dish shouldn't be taken so literally. The meal was worth it with the great Yelp deal, but unless I find myself in the neighborhood, I won't be back. Sichuan Gourmet is too much more convenient to us in the city and too much tastier and authentic.
