Authentic Sichuan cuisine. You can taste Different kinds pf spicy with different "spicy" levels here. They also have nonspicy dishes. Close to the university is another merit. Space is not crowded either. Recommend.

If you want Szechuan Cuisine, this is the right place. It tastes authentic on the tongue and the beef noodles on the appetizer menu will inform you of what this restaurant serves without spending a lot of money. Unfortunately, the Szechuan spices find their way onto the Chinese-American section of the menu and disrupt a takeout classic. In my opinion, they would hands-down serve the best Sesame Chicken, Chicken and Broccoli, etcetera in the area (and possibly Long Island in general) if they kept those spices out of the equation. My disappointment about that is why I am rating it only 4/5. I can tell this restaurant mainly serves other Chinese, but if they want to expand their customer base they will need to adapt flavors to local tongues. If they do correct the seasonings on the American menu, I full-heartedly say that I would make this my go-to Chinese takeout restaurant. Fair Warning: The American Menu items DO NOT include rice. You need to order it seperately. I didn't know that and was quite disheartened when I got home. I thought it was included in the quite high purchase price.
