If you like spicy (that numbing feeling!) this is the way to go! I forgot exactly what we ordered since it's been about a month. Their portions are perfect for sharing. The four of us shared two items. The one dish that was most memorable was the chicken wing with potatoes. When I say memorable, I mean I find myself trying to recreate it at home and can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in town!! Place was clean and service was average (friendly but not forthcoming-don't expect them to refill your water w/o having to ask)

HONESTLY DELICIOUS NORTHERN CHINESE MENU WITH UNIQUE DISHES I would definitely come back to try all their unique dishes. Northern Chinese food is usually dumplings, carbohydrates, meats, fried and boiled fish, and lots of spicy options. My favorite was the carnival pot, enough food for 2-3 people. Second favorite was the fried milk buns with condensed milk. They were served piping hot and crispy on outside with soft and warm inside. Dipped in the condensed sweet milk and wow, you're in heaven. We got two of those. The wontons in the wontons soup are huge and the soup that goes with it is soooo delicious. Very different than Hong Kong and Guangdong wonton soup because they use dried shrimp and seaweed in the soup base. The lamb skewers were delicious! Crispy salty and not too spicy. Just a little kick. Xiaolong bao were really good. Get them! The skin was a little thicker than I liked but were soft and not chewy. The meat was generous and so was the soup. I saw canned beer and beer on tap. SELF-ORDER ON MOBILE APP Easy to do on your phone. Keep in mind the hard copy menu is not the same as the mobile menu. They said the mobile menu is more accurate. Two servers were working hard to clean and answer questions. Food came out really fast. MODERN AND CLEAN DECOR Mostly bench seating. Plenty of seating. Two clean bathrooms. Two televisions on wall. One was sports and the other was cartoons. No audio. Music was soft classics. Relaxing atmosphere. PARENT NOTES Both bathrooms have baby changing table. Clean bathrooms with automatic faucet. Low sink that young children can reach on their own.

First time trying this restaurant. I didn't even know this restaurant existed in Serramonte Mall plaza. It's hidden in the corner next to Ross. The fish was the best part of our meal. The food took awhile to come out, but the servers were really nice. The ambiance inside is very basic. The chairs aren't really set up well enough to accommodate large groups. Parking was really good since we came after 8pm. I do like how this restaurant open late.

Have had this place bookmarked for a while because it's not too far from where we live, and we finally had a chance to go this past Saturday for dinner! I love that it's open late & there's a large parking lot (which is shared with a bunch of other stores, so it can still get packed). We were craving something sichuan spicy, and this hit the spot. Between my partner & I, we ordered 2 Kirin's, 1 order of lamb skewers, 1 order of chicken heart skewers, 1 Hunan-style noodles and 1 beef rib dry pot. Skewers were tasty, albeit a bit small, but we loved the chili powder and put all the extra into our noodles. The dry pot was also really good, but definitely super oily and got really salty midway through. We brought some leftovers home, and TBH it tasted even better once I added a few more veggies (to dilute the saltiness). Overall food was good, service was straightforward since most of it is via your phone, but it was definitely not cheap. We'll be back when we want a late night bite, but not too often since we were at ~$108pp.

I came here after a long day at dolores park. I hadn't eaten much all day so was really excited to try this new spot . We ordered the dry pot with chicken wings and dumplings on the side . We got there at 4 pm and the restaurant was empty , our food came out pretty quickly . I really enjoyed the flavor of the food but I wish that it came with more chicken wings . The dry pot was enough for 3 people !! It is a very large portion. Great spot for dry pot !
