    Sichuan boiled fish. Delicious!

    Jessie D doesn't know how to order real Chinese food. You don't go to an authentic Chinese restaurant and order American Chinese food which is not authentic Chinese food from China. More people order Chinese food from here than all others in the area BECAUSE it is authentic. If you want to start off with an amazing dish order the Sichuan boiled fish and a bowl of white rice. Eat them together in your mouth. You won't be disappointed. Americans don't now that boiled food in other countries is 5 star, packed full of flavor and makes meat melt in your mouth. By the way, vegetables should be crunchy, not mushy. Asians know how to cook food.

    ***Overall: 3.75 stars*** Service: 5 stars We were seated, served, and tended to right away. Excellent! This smiley lady checked on us and kept an eye on us the entire time we were there. Facility/Location: 5 stars Everything about the facility and location is 5 stars -- from the restaurant being easy-to-find in Aptos Village, parking is ample, restaurant space is large and clean. Even the ambiance has just enough decor to whisper "Chinese restaurant" so they didn't need to put the description into the name. Decor was simple and looked family-owned. Menu/Price: 4 stars A decent menu with reasonable prices. I like that they offer lunch specials, but it doesn't say anything other than a lower price, so I guess that just means you get rice and the dish for a slightly discounted rate? It'd have been nice to get a side with it, like potstickers or a salad and a drink. Some authentic Chinese dishes aren't on the menu, but then again, this is also the first Chinese restaurant menu I've seen that is in all English, so perhaps that gives me a hint why. Food/Flavor: 3.5 stars The food came out super fast and it tasted good, though the noodles lacked flavor. My daughter had to add salt to hers and I reached for the spicy chili -- both things were uncommon actions by both of us! Other than that, the food tasted good and was freshly made. We did like that food and plan to order from there again.

    Shrimp in lobster sauce

    We saw this place on Yelp and decided to try it. Every dish we ordered was delicious and we were well taken care of. We ordered chicken salad, sweet and sour pork, shrimp in lobster sauce, bbq pork chow fun, eggplant, and rice. The colors on the vegetables were so beautiful and vibrant. It's one of the best Chinese food places we've eaten at, and we've eaten at a lot of them.

    No Sesame Chicken left.

    I think this place is really good. Very clean inside, all the good stuff on the menu. Very kind service. We got the sesame chicken, potstickers, and beef chow mein. I recommend for chinese take out in the area.

    Szechuan Boiled Fish - definitely get this

    This place was a real surprise to me. I followed directions…read moreand it took me to a little patio tucked away next to a bank - there was an open door to a kitchen and the patio had two plastic tables and chairs. A waitress noticed me quickly and came to ask if had placed an order or needed to. They have a big menu! The lunch specials are amazing deals - a main course, with chow mein, fried rice, and soup! All for less than $15?! In this economy?? So I ordered the cashew chicken and a starter of cheese puffs (wanton). The food was all flavorful, the chow mein had a deliciously satisfying chew, the cheese puffs had a tangy cream cheese filling. I would say there wasn't an abundance of chicken - but there was a lot of other food to make up for it. Oh and complimentary hot green tea! I will definitely come back again!

The lunch specials are pretty good and reasonably priced, especially for this area. There were only two servers working: a younger woman handling cleanup and table setup, and a senior woman taking orders and serving food. The workflow felt a bit unorganized -- it would be smoother if they backed each other up. Overall, the lunch specials were solid and a good value here.

All dishes came out as we hoped/expected with both the chicken and fish providing the nummy sensation that is unique to Szechuan cuisine. We threw in the eggplant order because we wanted some veggies and something that didn't overtly threaten to numb our palettes and were very happy with that as well. Chicken was fried well and not dry at all which was a lovely experience. Fish was also flavorful and enjoyable to eat, although perhaps the least memorable of the dishes. I wouldn't NOT get any of the dishes again and might elevate the chicken as a must get if you're there for the a Szechuan experience. Well probably come back the next time we get a craving for that nummy feeling.

I ordered "Jim's Special Wonton Noodle Soup" #174, with the Mei Fen noodles. Helen threw in breaded mushrooms & beef plus a couple egg rolls. It was a lovely surprise. Fresh & crisp, soft inside and exploding with flavor. When Helen walked in with the Wonton Soup, I was wowed by the generous meat portions and all the right ingredients. The broth had the slightest hint of classic seasonings and maybe the tiniest touch of Chinese hot mustard?... which I love!! They don't skimp, big portions! The only "downside" (if you wanna call it that) is that canned drinks are between $3 & $4, which I suppose is quite normal these days anyway. I usually drink water (or table tea) with Chinese food, so I was unfazed, but commenting on that for info only. Overall, GREAT. Highly recommend! I'll be back!
