    Fish & tofu
    Mengxue C.

    We got orders to go. I liked the flavor profile but the fish selection wasn't my favorite, might try another kind next time. The pork kidney was yum.

    A new Sichuan restaurant is open in Flushing, but in the most hidden way possible -- disguised in a street that most non-locals will never venture to, and away from all American social media. The only way to keep track of what its doing is to walk in and trust that the chef will bring you the freshest ingredients cooked with just the right amount of spices, serving you uncompromised Sichuan food from rabbit to fresh water eel, from kidney to intestine. It's not for the faint-hearted to say the least. This is one of those nonchalant spots for me because it's only trying to please the ones who understand and appreciate Sichuan food. The owner wants the the restaurant to be close to all the fresh ingredients, but also the chef's mahjong game room. That's why it sits on such a quiets street in Flushing. Oh, by the way, the chef might be slightly hangover from the Mahjong game the night before. Below are my two dining experiences, one dine-in, one delivery. Both tastes amazing. The portions are wow-big. Though the price might look higher than others, it's for a good reason.

    Cutest server ever

    Absolutely the best szechuan in all of flushing period. Looks, smell, taste all on point. Nothin overcooked. As authentic as can be. Chef and owner walking around greeting and asking if they need to improve~a plus. Very humble. The robot server is a nice touch too. After dinner they give u a ice powder/jelly another plus. Price is only heavy on the market price item so be aware. We also had free drinks/beer all we want but dont know if thats just temporary. I do recomended eveything on the menu, its that good.

    I came here with some folks and the food was surprisingly amazing. On a busy evening, many places…read morein Flushing required a reservation or had long wait times, but Szechuan Mountain House, perfectly didn't have a long wait so we went to check it out. Starting off, the numbing szechuan chicken was my least favorite of the dishes - the pieces of chicken were really tiny and there were a lot of peppercorns. I wish they made the pieces of chicken slightly larger as it was irritating to slowly pick it out towards the end of finishing it. Now, what went well were the stone pot with the fish. Normally not a huge fan of fish, so if I can enjoy eating fish a place has done well in preparing it. The soup was really flavorful and everyone at my table enjoyed it. The sweet and sour pork was also nice. The breading was crispy and the sauce had a nice tangy flavor to it and the texture was interestingly satisfying. The grilled beef ribs and bao buns were one of my favorite. The beef rib was very tender and went well with the buns and condiments that were provided.

I've dined here with my family twice and in the most recent occasion, we came with no reservations around 2:30pm on a Sunday. All the tables were taken as they just opened at noon so we had to wait a bit. Their menu / iPad ordering system was simple to navigate and quick to place. Our table was started off with their spicy pickled cabbage, which was super addicting. I love how the spicy oil was so flavorful and the cabbage was soft and just slightly tangy. We ordered 5 dishes for our party of 5: the la-zi chicken, stir fried cabbage, grilled beef ribs, beef and mushroom bibimbap and mao xue wang. My favorites were the la-zi chicken as the diced chicken was super crispy and flavorful. The spice level and numbingness was just the right amount. Next comes the beef and mushroom bibimbap, which is mixed and served at the table. The flavors were more soy based and was very balanced. The stir fried cabbage was cooked well but the pork in the dish was extremely salty. The grilled beef ribs came with steamed baos, similar to peking duck. I enjoyed the experience and presentation but the dish was a bit boring. Toppings included a spicy hot sauce, cucumbers and scallions along with the sliced beef that was individually torched at the table. Lastly the mao xue wang is a traditional stew featuring offals and blood curds. This one had duck blood, tripe, and intestines. I was extremely disappointed by this dish as I was expecting some tofu and small pork intestines but it didn't have either. The tripe and intestines were very crunchy, wherwas the duck blood was silky and soft. The flavor was very basic mala stew and had a ton of red chili peppers. Overall I had a decent meal at Mountain house but can't help but wonder if I ordered the right things since not everything was as good as I hoped. I will mostly likely return to give their other menu items a try.

The other two tasted horribly bad.. We got: Chongqing diced chicken with dried chili - it tasted okay, a very standard Szechuan dish Squirrel fish - fish was not fresh, sauce was full of food coloring and tasted artificial. We had so much left over and didn't even wanna take it with us. Drunken spare ribs - ribs were all bad parts, like the parts that are full of fats and tendon, the parts with messed up bones When we were ready to pay our bill, a lady finally walked out and greeted us looking like she just woke up from her nap, and waited next to me until she took the bill back with signed tips.

Lemon water at your table. The appetizers were just ok, fried pork lacked much flavor and the brown sugar glutinous rice cake wasn't as good as elsewhere. Free side dishes of black mushrooms (not much flavor) and the pickled daikon (this was good, a little spicy). The aromatic hot oil and suancai fish was excellent, more than enough for one person (plus maybe one). You can swap out the two veggies with other choices but I liked the lettuce and baby nappa. Golden soup suancai and fish was more sour for those who liked it that way - tomato looked good, too, fragrant (not spicy). The spicy on the others was just a light spice, more ma la than anything. Everyone gets a bowl of rice, and they have a gift card deal - buy $300 and get $50 free. Plus free meal on your birthday, and some discounts on Tuesdays or Wednesdays? Check the signs. Seats filled up quickly on a weekend and they were packed - come early and enjoy. The double serving for two was smaller than a single serving for one, so just get two if you have two good sized appetites. Single unisex bathroom, and the tables have drawers with paper napkins. Drinks - eh, pass, had better elsewhere. They did forget a dish, but that's ok, we were reasonably full.

The maggot of the menu is fish in broth. We got 2 the #1 spicy pickled cabbage with snake head fish. Great level of spice, just enough peppercorns to give flavor and not overwhelm. And the tomatoes base. I found that one bland, but my more sensitive friends found it delicious. The clear noodles were wide and perfectly cooked. The fish melts in your mouth. The glutinous rice sticks were good, but not hot. The lemon tea was too sweet. The small portion was large enough for leftovers.

Pleasantly surprised by how flavorful the food was. The garlic string beans are my favorite. Very garlicky, blistered well and flavorful. The pork was pretty good too. I think the boiled fish doesn't taste as fresh as I wanted. The fish had a bit of a muddy flavor which threw it off a bit. They also keep the bones in there so it was kind of hard to eat. The place has a lot of authentic dishes that might scare off non-Chinese people. There are trotters, intestines, offal, rabbit, etc on the menu so if you're looking for American style Chinese food, you should go elsewhere. Overall not bad. Service was standard, ambiance was casual.

    First time dining here even though I've walked by here for years. Came here on a Wednesday and…read morethere was a wait. Pro about this is that it's a good sign that the food should be good. Con about this is, I didn't realize there would be a wait so I didn't bother making reservations on Google so we had to wait 40 mins. No seats so we decided to go hang out at tangram while we waited and waiting for her text/call. The little one has been hyped up so much from mukbangs that she's constantly craving crawfish. I mentioned to her that a couple places in Flushing sell crawfish Chinese style and she wanted to try. Did a search on Yelp and saw someone recently raved about the crawfish here. Every order of crawfish comes in 2lbs and we ordered the spiced flavored one. This crawfish gets an A++. Little one loved the flavors and freshness. So tasty. Not only that, but these were probably the biggest crawfish we've ever seen! Even the claws had meat! We also loved how they chopped off the top of the head to removed the "filter". We also ordered a couple small dishes to try. For cold apps we ordered the pigs ear and okra. We love the crunchy texture of the pigs ear and the more we ate it, the more addicting it got to eat. Okra was also a bit. For the skewers, we ordered the lamb beef and intestine. Honestly the lamb and beef skewers were probably the worst ones we've ever tried. It was a struggle to finish them. The meat was tasteless, hard and overcooked. No fat ratio at all. The pig intestines were perfectly cooked. Love when it's crispy. We love finding a place that's been around that's actually a huge hit for us. We will be back. If you spend $120, they will gift you a huge carafe of passion fruit tea.

Hot Space is known for their grilled fish served in a large pan (kept heated with a flame underneath) with various toppings that you can choose from including enoki mushrooms, cabbage, veggies, fish tofu, soft tofu, kelp, lotus root, black fungus, rice cakes, ramen noodles, and glass noodles. They have options for the flavor of the broth/grilled fish including mala spicy, spicy tofu (comes with soft tofu), garlic, tomato, and more. Their menu also includes appetizers and other entrees including crawfish and shrimp. For appetizers, we tried the grilled fish tofu skewer, cold tofu with preserved duck egg, and grilled eggplant with garlic. I would recommend all of these appetizers. If you enjoy fish, this place is worth trying especially because you can customize it with toppings that you like. When you spend $120, you can get a free tower of a sparkling fruit drink (it was just okay so don't go out of your way to spend $120 just to get the drink). Free dessert , herbal jelly in milk, comes at the end of the meal, but this wasn't too enjoyable. Service: Staff members were very friendly and helpful. They came around to refill drinks frequently. Ambiance: The restaurant is a good size because it has two floors. Good for both small and large groups. Seating is comfortable. Overall, I would recommend this place!

This spot is a slightly more elevated and nicely decorated with warm and friendly service. I ordered a Sichuan classic, twice cooked pork, and a new dish I've never seen before, snow pea leaves in broth. The twice cooked pork was a fantastic iteration of this dish. The pork was sliced thin with the perfect amount of chew which paired well texturally with the soft, buttery leeks. The flavor was so well balanced while being heavily seasoned and the smoky wok hei flavor really comes through. The snow pea leaves were soft and silky with tender stems, and they came served in a golden broth with some mushrooms, juicy tomato and snappy pieces of black fungus. The dish is topped with a century egg. I found the broth itself to have a bit of a grainy texture when sipped. I've tried century egg in the past and while I'm not disgusted by it, I never quite felt like I understand the ingredient until eating this dish. The creamy, funky flavor of the egg reminds me of blue cheese and it pairs very well with the subtle flavors of the snow pea leaves and amplifies the richness of the broth. I really enjoyed my experience here and would like to return with a group to try more of the Sichuan classics on the menu.
