    Sichuan Chicken
    Jackie J.

    I was waiting for my car to be ready for pickup at a friend's mechanic shop and I walked into SuYu Pei on 16th Ave SW for lunch at 1:15 today (Thursday) and was greeted immediately and told I could sit wherever I'd like. Not even 20 seconds later my waiter, Leo, showed up and told me about the lunch specials: For $10, you can choose from a large list of lunch items, each including an entree, side of rice, and a cheese Rangoon! He could tell I was stuck with all of the choices so he asked me what kinds of things I normally liked and recommended his favorite dish, so that's what I chose. I ordered the Sichuan with chicken, but you can also order it with beef, shrimp or tofu. I'm not lying when I say the food came out, piping hot, in about three minutes. Anyone who knows me knows I love sauce. I didn't have to get any extra sauce for this bad boy, it was sauuuuucy! The white rice was nice and sticky, the way it's supposed to be, and the cheese Rangoon was crispy on the edges and soft and all the way filled in the middle. Leo was so knowledgeable about the menu and fun to talk to, not to mention quick at noticing and asking for refills or if I needed anything else. I even found out that we knew a lot of the same people and we talked and laughed about that fact for a few minutes. After he brought me a box for the rest of my food, I told him my car was getting worked on at a shop nearby so I might sit a while longer if that was ok, and he looked concerned and told me the area wasn't super great for walking and asked me if I needed a ride back to the shop! Talk about customer service! I'm currently still sitting in the booth at SuYu Pei, but if I didn't want to be, I could be in and out in 20 minutes easily. With the amazing customer service, super tasty food, and quick delivery times, If you're looking for somewhere to stop on your lunch break, this is definitely the place!

    Simple atmosphere. Nothing fancy but the food quality is very good, hot, and so fast. Madi was my server and she gave the best service. i went there on a Wednesday between6-6:30 and the place was pretty full but everything was good and fast. This is the mid Western United States so authentic chinese food is difficult to find at best and especially getting authentic chinese ingredients is even more difficult but they dk a great job regardless of what some reviews say the quality of food is excellent. Thanks to Madi and the Chef! Great job!

    Mongolian beef. With white rice. Order was plentiful.

    Walked in, greeted, ordered take out, they was quick and the food was hot. Great, welcoming atmosphere.

Tried the now popular crispy tuna, 7/10, I do love anything fried Had a couple of rolls, the Hawaiian and Las Vegas, and they were fine for my taste, not mind blowing, no "wow" effect ‍ My server was great, she was sweet and friendly and always checking in. Also, their rolls are discounted on mondays, so that was a nice surprise. Overall, not a bad place, but wouldn't be my first choice. Will certainly try again

    I was in Iowa City for a few days, and I read good reviews of Le Gourmet. So I decided to try it…read more It was located just a short six minute walk from the Hyatt Hotel. Located in a mall, it looks unassuming. There were about 7 tables inside and many more tables on the outside in the mall. I ordered the jjampbong (seafood noodle soup), which is a common dish in Korean owned Chinese restaurants. It was delicious and spicy. I really liked how you could still taste some of the char from some of the ingredients being flash cooked in a wok before being added to the soup. I have to say this might have been my favorite experience of eating jjampbong, and I've had some really good ones in Los Angeles. I came back the following day for lunch again. This time I ordered the baby clam thin noodle soup. Another hit! The flavor of the soup base was spot on, and the clams were already taken out of the shell, which made it more convenient to eat. I would definitely order both again if I visit Iowa City again. The food and service were excellent. The owner checked up on me to make sure everything was good. I highly recommend this Korean restaurant. Who knew Korean food could be this good in Iowa?!

    The food was below average, and having to manually enter my card details into the app to pay was a…read morehuge hassle. The middle-aged Korean woman running the place seemed to have a fixation on white people.
