    I love spicy food. I came as a party of one and said at the bar it was able to get food very quickly before the show I was going to started. It was a great solo date night.

    Cutie mint!

    Was so excited to come here with friends after seeing it all over social media! I was able to make a reservation and we were seated upstairs in this almost private sectioned table! The inside design was beautiful! We tried the iconic swing pork belly, which was visually fun. The chili oil here is great in all the dishes. The actual dish was nothing groundbreaking, but good nonetheless. We got the fried rice and mapo tofu. The fried rice was AMAZING!! Definitely must get. The mapo tofu is huge and a great level of spice but not too spicy. We also got the double fried pork, which had some veg. We dipped it in the chili oil to give it more spice! They ended the meal with some cute mints that had a fruity taste to it! This place definitely lives up to the hype and we were all incredibly full after!

    The food here is SOOOOOOOOO delicious and actually spicy!! I've been to places like this before where it wasn't spicy at all, but this place did such a good job. Everything was so good and I would come back to try everything else. The service was amazing. We came closer to closing time, but the staff still took us in and took our orders immediately and we got sat down. Food came out so quick, and everything was hot and delicious. The drinks were fun as well, but I would just come back for the food. My favorite was the lobster, and I suggest everyone to come here to try it!!! The ambiance was so lovely. We walked in and it felt like I was in a different area and not in nyc. I absolutely loved. The decorations and it was a bit quieter so I was able to hear the person I was with. This place is famous and I completely understand why. Might try and come back again soon lol!!

    Peppercorn Beef- Tenderloin in Szechuan peppercorn broth. $26. Very numbing. Pretty tasty, but I prefer their other "soups"/stews like Suan

    I went to the newest location of this excellent miniature Szechuan/Sichuan chain with a group several months ago, having been to both their Flushing and popular St. Marks location. It's the same schtick mostly when it comes to the menu, outside of missing certain dishes such as the Lamb Scorpion, a delicious dish made from lamb spine. In terms of other visits, I would recommend their Suan Cai Yu, or fish in sour and spicy cabbage soup, or the similar beef version with enoki. I heavily recommend making a reservation early if you can, as you'll otherwise have to wait a while, with there not being that much room by the entrance. We had a large group, so it took a while regardless. In terms of drinks, they have a selection of nonalcoholic drinks, wines, and a selection of baijiu. This includes them surprisingly selling a $15 100 ml bottle of Er Guo Tou/二锅头, a 54% ABV liquor that might be one of the easiest ways to get hammerered in the city. For food, they give you some free crunchy cabbage with a mild spicy kick. The other dishes were the following: Fried Shredded Eel- Deep-fried shredded eel with chili pepper and celery. $32. I found the portion a tad bigger compared to the other location, and it was pretty tasty as usual, though I, as usual, prefer getting cumin lamb over this as the texture is better and it's a bigger portion of protein. Pepper Rabbit Meat- Stir-fried spicy rabbit with hot pepper. $25. Bony is expected, but I liked the flavor. It had a good sour and spicy mix, reminding me more of Hunan or Yunnan food. Szechuan Double Cooked Pork- Pork belly, Chinese leeks, and chili pepper. $19. We got this as they were out of the country-style pork. Good version with streaky pork, which wasn't too fatty. There was also enough douchi/fermented black bean, but not too much that it was overly salty. Salted Egg Yolk Corn- Golden baked corn kernels with salted egg yolk. $18. A nice sweet bite with a bit of saltiness, which mixed well when combined with all the spicier dishes. Peppercorn Beef- Tenderloin in Szechuan peppercorn broth. $26. Good amount of tender beef, and a decent dish overall. This was the most numbing of all the dishes, along with the pepper rabbit. Fried Rice With Szechuan Pickles & Bacon. $19. Alright. I wish the rice had more smokiness from the bacon. This is yet another good location of this miniature Szechuan chain. I prefer the St. Marks location in terms of atmosphere, and maybe as there's a dish or two missing here compared to that location, but I presume this one's easier to get into.

    This spot made the "Top 10 Chinese Restaurants in NYC" list based on over 100 million ratings on Beli!! The Sichuan flavors here are bold, spicy, and super authentic--definitely a spot to come hungry with friends and share tasty dishes. Swing pork belly, La Zi Chicken, Crispy Sizzling Tofu, Ma La Lobster, and MaoXueWang are delicious!! Also heard from the staff they now stay open late on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays until 1 AM, which makes this even better for late night cravings!!

    Mountain House blew me away. The food was phenomenal--rich flavors, perfect textures, and dishes that strike that rare balance of comforting and elevated. You can feel the pride and craftsmanship in every plate. The service was just as exceptional. Everyone we interacted with was warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our night memorable.

    beef ribs
    Caroline S.

    overrated. i've had better versions of everything i've tried here at other places. i think the best thing i've tried here is the beef ribs with the bao, but it wasn't anything super amazing or anything. here's some commentary on some of the dishes i've had: - la zi ji: too many peppers, not enough chicken - plum juice: bitter and very artificial tasting - green beans: below average to average for a szechuan restaurant. not super crisp. - green pepper pork: for some reason, the green pepper was super bitter and basically inedible :( jiang nan in flushing/LIC/chinatown does this dish much better - swing belly pork: very plain. the dipping sauce had one flavor note and that was garlic. my breath stank for days after eating this. everything else was average. the nice thing is that they are near broadway shows so you can come here before a show and they can also accommodate large parties. they also bring out tea and a nice pickled cabbage amuse bouche. tldr; if someone asked me for chinese restaurant recommendations in nyc, this would not be in my top 5. wouldn't come back since there are so many other better chinese restaurants in the city.

    Mountain House is a NYC staple when it comes to Sichuan food. With two locations in Manhattan, this spot in Times Square has stunning Chinese interior and is a reliable spot when it comes to authentic Sichuan cuisine. Service here is excellent and fairly quick. When I came, I got their swinging pork belly, wontons in chicken soup, mapo tofu, la zi chicken, and drunken jelly (for dessert). I absolutely loved their dumplings and their la zi chicken. Everything comes in a good portion and great value for the price. Loved ending the meal with their refreshing jelly, and I would definitely come back.

    This restaurant was terrific, service was top notch the ambiance led to an authentic feel and the food was top notch. Ordering made easy with an iPad at the table that displayed photos of the food along with ingredients and pricing.

    I've been to their downtown location but first time at this location. The decor definitely adds to the vibe here. Two floor and you check in on the first floor. The 2nd floors seems to be bigger and more seating. Service was good too. I was with a large group and they were very accommodating. The food was delicious and the presentation was amazing as well. Everything looked delicious.

    la zi chickens

    Very nice Chinese restaurant! The spicy chicken is very delicious! The food is the best among the nearby restaurants. Excellent environment!

    First Floor Dining Room

    Not just another Chinese restaurant, but an experience in dinner. Along Manhattan's famous Restaurant Row (46th Ave), Mountain House is an authentic Szechuan restaurant where you're greeted warmly by members of the staff in a well appointed dining room. My wife and I enjoyed a range of dishes in the beautiful first floor dining room (2nd floor is equally beautiful). We started with complimentary hot green tea along with Beef Sour Soup. The soup's broth is both sour and very spicy while the meat is very tender and delicious. We also had my favorite dish, Kung Pao Chicken which is loaded with peanuts and quite tasty. To round out our meal we had a few dumplings and fresh steamed rice. Definitely a destination restaurant that I highly recommend if you're looking for authentic Szechuan cuisine.

    I liked this place! Me and my friends needed a late dinner option after a long day out. We put our name on the waitlist and waited around 30 minutes for a party of 4. The restaurant is surprisingly bigger than I expected since they have seating on the top floor. We ordered the green beans, ma-po tofu, swing pork belly, la-zi chicken, beef stew with potatoes, and a couple cocktails, I got the endless summer one. I loved all the food, my favorite was the beef stew with potatoes! I could pass on the swing pork, I just don't like pork that much but that's just personal preference lol.

The grilled pork spare ribs was good, but it was too little meat for the price. The scallion pancake was bland. The Peking duck was ok. The pork xiao long bao was bad. The skin broke easily with the included forceps and with chopsticks. It was hard even transferring it to my plate. The mapo tofu was bland. The la zi ji (spicy crispy chicken) was too spicy to eat. I have good spice tolerance, and I always eat la zi ji, but it was just too spicy. This was the only meat dish that was barely touched at the end of the dinner. The best dish was the cumin lamb. It was seasoned well and the lamb was tender. I wish they gave us more lamb though. The meat pieces were small. I've had much better Chinese food in dallas. I would not recommend this Chinese restaurant to anyone.
