I'm very happy to have this option in RI because I've been going to Malden for Sichuan food. I went with a friend who doesn't eat spicy so I tried a few dishes, but will go back for 毛血旺 next time!

So glad this place opened. I have visited most Szechuan restaurants in RI and southern mass and I'm pretty happy with this one. It's definitely the cleanest and most well designed, as far as Chinese places go. The food was excellent. Had tripe appetizer, cumin lamb, bunch of other stuff that I forgot but it was great

Food is great, no qualms about that if you're looking for authentic freshly cooked Chinese. Service started off great, but as soon as we got our food, it's like we didn't even exist from there on after. I didn't like the feeling of being ignored while the 3 other tables I observed got consistent excellent attention. The server even made me feel embarrassed for requesting a to-go container. We agreed to no dine in moving forward and just take out only once in a while since this place seems to be the local watering hole for the North Providence Asian community. That's a great thing for the quality of the food and speaks volumes, but the vibes for dine in just weren't for us.

We were pleasantly surprised to see the owner taking the time to introduce and explain the history behind some Chinese dishes to the customers. It's truly amazing, as food serves as a beautiful reflection of a country's culture. The food itself is delicious, though the portion sizes are somewhat modest.
