    Chicken w broccoli lunch special without the carrots
    Michael D.

    Fried rice has little meat and could use more flavor Chicken with broccoli comes with carrots for some reason.. It's a slight bit salty They have more authentic Chinese food but I didn't get a chance to try those yet

    Garlic cucumber
    James T.

    HOT HOT HOT !!! It's all good spicy . I was recommended by friends to try out here . Order a garlic cucumber, so good fresh and crunchy . Taste very good . Spicy wanton was good too . Sauce a little soured for me but still good . The spicy chicken taste is amazing good even through the batter was thicker . Meat is smaller .. portion size good . Price good . Overall it's a good place to eat if you like is spicy .

    Best authentic chinese food within 100 miles. And friendly staff too. Amazing food. We ordered vegetarian dishes also.

    Lunch special - double cooked pork with white rice and wonton soup

    Food was ok, but I wasn't impressed with service / staff. They seemed to rush through everything and were annoyed. I was greeted with, are you ready to order? What a mindset!

    Best hot and sour soup
    Kimberly K.

    Authentic home style Szechuan in a cozy restaurant. This place is real deal - no fancy decor or micro brew dinner night as with Dan Dan and Han Dynasty just delicious food cooked by my Uncle ( just kidding - I'm not Chinese) but felt like I was visiting and eating at a family. Started with the hit and sour soup - the best in town- tofu,pork, bamboo, and other Chinese dried vegetables- perfect spice and broth and ginger .Not diluted by soy sauce or over salted chicken broth. Dan Dan noodle- spicy and peanut perfect.AND the love that noodles were left LONG not all chopped up( my biggest pet peeve is when noodles are broken up to accommodate customers with a fork lol) Ma Po tofu is the bomb! The fermented black sauce and the chilies and others pepper spices and velvety tofu was so comforting with a scoop of hot rice . Prices are reasonable considering portions are generous to share. I took the leftovers home and enjoyed the rest for lunch during the week. I highly recommend this place if you like spicy- really spicy food. If you order mild you are missing the boat on authentic Szechuan cuisine. Stick to your local carry out if you want generic American Chinese. I'll be back for a hot pot or dried pepper dish...can't wait I'll be back

    Today they are busy and I find the food not so great. I always have pork intestine clear noodle, and it looks very different from other times. The soup base looks thicker and it's of different color too. The taste is off. I'm a bit confused. The chicken appetizer dish is of no good too. It looks right but tastes bland. Overall not a good day today.

    Dry pot mushroom
    Yang C.

    Have heard this place for a while and today we finally got a chance to come for lunch. The place was not crowded at all: actually there were more takeout orders than dine in. A big compliment to how fast the dishes were made! For the food themselves, I was not impressed at all... we were not fans of spicy food, so we ordered both dishes with mild hot. They both turned out to be too hot for us... but that's okay. The mushroom dish had three different mushroom. I like that one a lot. The chicken was tender. The thing we don't like is that the dishes were not tasty.. We were both very light eaters at home and we don't like salty food. But today the two dishes were just hot and spicy, without enough salty flavor...

    Cheng Du how do you do? Classic Sichuan cuisine that is delicious and priced right. Located in Paoli shopping center makes for easy parking. BYOB since they don't sell any alcohol here. To gauge the spiciness of the dish with 10 being the hottest. Look for the number attached to the dish. You can ask them to adjust the level to your comfort level. Liked: Great balance of flavors and textures: 1. Spicy beef noodle soup 2. Bok choy with shitake mushrooms 3. Pork kidneys 4. Kung pao chicken 5. Dan dan noodles Liked a little less: 1. Spicy dumplings - The dumplings tasted like the ones you buy in an Asian supermarket. 2. Fried pork ribs with fried panko bread crumbs - They tasted like ribs you would get at a big box store. The staff was cordial as we were seated promptly and tea was brought over. Portion sizes were generous and the Sichuan peppercorns, garlic and chili peppers gave our dishes a sweet and fruity numb tingling punch that was well accepted. They accept Major credit cards and if you pay in cash they'll give you a discount.

    Egg rolls

    I came here with a group of coworkers when traveling for work based off of a recommendation. We all shared everything we got which is the best way to do it in my opinion. We got dumplings in chili sauce, wontons in spicy sauce, Dan Dan noodles, egg rolls, and scallion pancakes for appetizers. For entrees, we got hot sauce style chicken, cumin style lamb, garlic sauce style pork, hot pot style beef, dry chili pepper style shrimp, scallion style fish. Everything was really good. My favorites were the scallion pancakes, Dan Dan noodles, garlic style pork, hot pot style beef, and dry chili pepper style shrimp. The spice levels aren't for the faint of heart, but they can be adjusted. We left them as is and the 8s were very spicy. I think the service could have been a little better. They weren't great about refilling our water and it took a long time to get our bill. We told them before we ordered that we wanted separate checks and they said that was fine, but then when the bill came, they wouldn't split it and would only let us use two credit cards. I really enjoyed the food. Just make sure to have alternative ways of splitting the bill if you need to.

    Funny to see the world of culture meet food meet desire to make the world a better place…read more My employer's NA headquarters is in the area so we frequent it. Since we choose to eat vegetarian, love Asian food, and love variety, a vegetarian Asian buffet wins every time. So we've been here a few times and have found consistent quality and service (or, well, whatever you'd call it). They are not overbearing in their service but our water glasses are always full. Look, it's a mid-level priced buffet of vegetarian food. It won't be piping hot, generally speaking. So, if your expectations are of piping hot food, you'll rate this experience poorly. But you should lower your expectations. Should it be reasonably warm? Absolutely. And we've found it generally is. Especially considering the sheer variety - incredibly number of options both hot and cold, both healthy and friend, to meet varied tastes. The salads are good, the hot food is generally good. I throw away my broccoli stems at home but their broccoli stems I almost always go back for seconds. Who knew? It's an all-inclusive price with drinks (we stick with water) and desserts and even if it's slow, we see them refilling the foods that are getting low. I wouldn't call this place a must-see but it's a staple for us.

    Probably a friend or family member, this guy on a headset talked very loudly the whole time. Please…read moregive him an office. I asked for a takeout box so I could enjoy my food at home.
