| - Who knew little ol' Phoenix - let alone a suburb of Chandler - would have more than all encompassing "Chinese" restaurants. As one to love spicy Asian foods, I was thrilled to find a Sichuan restaurant just right in the midst our neighborhood.
For my first time here, I decided to go with the staples: water boiled fish, Chongquing chicken, mapo tofu and threw in some scallion pancakes. The food came out fast, yet freshly cooked and bubbling. All dishes were fairly flavorful...I wouldn't say the best Sichuan food I've ever eaten, but it still imparts your palate with that familiar, pleasant citrus tingly taste that I crave. I enjoyed both the fish and chicken, but the mapo tofu was very lacking uniqueness. And you can't go wrong with fresh scallion pancakes.
Service here is what I would expect. Flag the server down for anything you need, don't be surprised if you're reminding them a few times to refill water, but overall it's not the worst. When the food is good enough, service is only secondary. Overall, not bad Sichuan restaurant, and I definitely look forward to exploring more dishes here!
