It's very nice inside, and while the food has good unique flavor, it almost doesn't matter when 70% of your dish is inedible. Its also very spicy so be prepared. I like spicy and after the initial shock you get used to it and get the flavor. However in the one dish I believe was the chicken flaming pan the chicken was literally all bones and tendons. The other dish was kung pao chicken with odd pieces of chicken with inedible dry pieces of chili pepper and what I would figure are boiled peanuts with an odd texture. Both dishes had almost no vegetables in them as well, and part of the one I'm pretty sure I tasted soap in it. (Not cilantro, I love cilantro, it did not have it in the dish) I'd say to try it once as a flavor experience but I could otherwise never recommend this place for anyone who is ordering to actually eat something. I've had food here twice and this was the same both times. Below is a photo to show how much of the dish was inedible next to its container. That's all bones, tendons, and skin.

Friendly stuff. Authentic food. I’m very satisfied and gad a time there.

This place has the best Kung Pao chicken I’ve ever had!!! Everything was perfect, the food was served very hot, but not so hot. You couldn’t eat it, but that perfect sizzling temperature. All the staff were amazing and the food came out perfect and very quickly!! I can tell they take this business very seriously and we can’t wait to come back!!

OMG 😱 so good! Amazing ponzo sauce 🤤 Seriously fantastic. I had sweetheart roll with regular tuna, fatty tuna, yellowtail belly sashimi. OMG have to fan girl over that yellowtail belly! Melt in my mouth creamy texture! Had miso soup and seaweed salad, also delicious. Enjoyed the bigger chunks of tofu in the soup! A little pricey, $100 for two people, but we had a decent amount of food between the two of us & the quality of the food is top notch. Our server was perfect! Our water never ran out, but didn't hover or bother us with endless chatter. We definitely will be back again and again. Got my eye on some delicious sounding cocktails next time!

Everything was really really greasy. The shrimp egg roll was FULL of black pepper, no fresh veggie, and very oily. I also was supposed to get 2 but only got one, not mad cause I couldn't get through one. The fried rice was just brown rice and soy sauce, no onion, no beansprout, no green onion. The white rice was far superior Chicken wings, sweet and sour chicken, and broccoli were nothing to write home about. The people were nice enough, and the place seemed pretty clean. I do not write bad reviews like this lightly, but I was so disappointed cause I was looking forward to this. And I did give it a fair chance, eating it as quickly as possible.

This place is so good. I've never been there, but I watch this thing called Only Woks on Tik Tok. That $12 general TSO was amazing looking and looked fire with the rice. This dude can cook! Also, this dude lives on good values, so everything is cooked with love! Go eat here PLEASE! Do it for me!!!

Always our go to take out sushi spot. Always very consistent and yummy. Prices are a little high but always a good treat. The cheesy roll, sakura roll, crunchy roll, and avocado roll are very good. Service is always friendly. I prefer take out rather than eating in, it’s kinda cafeteria style, order at the counter, clean up after yourself type of vibe.

First time customer. Will never return. The Pad Thai tasted like boiled noodles. Ordered mild to medium spice and received NO spice. Tiny bit of peanuts and almost NO SAUCE. Ordered Basil Fried Rice which was white rice with tiny amount of peas and what looks like boiled chicken and the rice was not fried. Had a few tiny bits of basil in it. Ordered mild to medium spice and received NO spice. I complained to the manager and he said they only use basil for seasoning and do not add much basil to the rice. He said customers think the basil ruins the flavor! Seriously! That's my favorite part of the dish! The basil fried rice at Green Mango has big pieces of basil, and its delicious. Ordered one of their fried rolls with crab, and it was completely forgettable. The pork dumplings were decent. Didnt try the won ton yet. Terribly disappointed that I placed such a large, disappointing order and wasted my money. The manager offered to return some of my money but couldn't credit my charge card. Said he would mail cash to my house but then made me spell the name of my street 4 times before I told to forget it.

An absolute gem for authentic Chinese cuisine lovers! 😍 Don't let the modest decor or occasional language barriers deter you - this place serves THE most phenomenal dishes that keep me coming back daily. The chefs masterfully blend fiery Hunan flavors, numbing Sichuan spices, and hearty Northeastern comfort food in ways that teleport me straight to China's culinary capitals. Must-tries: No 116 Steamed Fish Filet with Chopped Chilies ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Huge fish - takes two people to finish! No 130 Braised Pork with Preserved Vegetables ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Trust me, it has a beautiful name in Chinese. No 168 Sichuan Mapo Fish ⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you are hungry and don't know what to order, go for this. No 177 Double Cooked Pork Slices ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the most classic Chinese dishes. No 215 Double Cooked Pork Slices(Crispy Sweet and Sour Pork Slices ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Same name but totally different tastes. My favorite. No 232 So Say We All Cabbage ⭐⭐⭐ Vegetable dishes are a must too. No 244 Fish Flavor Shredded Pork ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect with rice. No 254 Kung Pao Chicken ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This tastes best with extra spice! While service might require some patience (and Google Translate), every mouthwatering bite justifies the adventure. Pro tip: Come hungry and ask for the authentic Chinese food recommendation - it's where the real magic happens! 🤩

About $40/person for hotpot buffet all you can eat. The portion and taste are pretty good. Food came out quick as well. I would recommend the deep fried pork with honey glazed (guo buo ro). The table was slightly dirty with grease stain that got on my sleeves when I sat down. Fyi, dress causally and avoid wearing clothes you dont want stained.

the buffet is not available on the weekends so i did not get a chance to try that. however pork congee and fried bread stick were my favorite. this brought back my childhood memory :) dim sum was good too. i ordered roasted duck noodle to go and it was still good even when i reheated it the next day.

Update Nov 2024, more than 2 years after last post UPGRADE rating to 5⭐️ FOR CONSISTENTLY SUPERB CANTONESE DINNER SERVICE. *** This is a conclusion from several independent visits between myself and foodie friends. (Photos uploaded separately at the time of update). The lunch buffets on weekdays is NOT the measure of this place. ITS GEM IS THE UNDERSTATED CANTONESE A LA CARTE, best enjoyed at supper time😎. It’s truly superb, the flavors brings back fond memories of Hongkong, a culinary center known for myriad Cantonese foods, from the street stalls to takeaways to casual and fine dining. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 THIS IS PITTSBURGH’S BEST PLACE FOR ROAST DUCK. In addition, the dumplings are reminiscent of traditional Cantonese DimSum. Indeed, while this not a DimSum eatery (unfortunately Pittsburgh DOES NOT YET have a true DimSum Restaurant), the dumplings are exceptionally Cantonese! It’s a BYOB, so bring your favorite wine for dinner. Service is excellent. ***** SURPRISING AUTHENTIC CANTONESE, against the cheap Chinese-style greasy salty lunch buffet (corruption of Chinese cuisine). Please please forget that buffet. ORDER FROM THE MENU, and awaken your palate to the subtle flavors of the Cantonese. The menu is short and very navigable. My recommendations: 1. Cantonese duck - juicy, fat rendered very much to the almost paper thin skin 2. Char Siu pork - unique Chinese BBQ pork, very lean 3. Sautéed Bokchoy with garlic They also have a small dim sum selection - the best is the Shu Mai and Shrimp Leek Dumplings. It’s a find for Foodies.

I could cry tears of joy!!!! Been living in Pittsburgh for 3 years and though this city has some sparks of noodle and dumpling greatness. The all around Chinese food is sorely lacking. Stumbled across Szechuan Spice during a trip to the natural history museum (right across the street!). I ordered the chef special beef with pickled pepper.... AH! Real flavor! Real Szechuan heat! My partner and I were so impressed with our dine in meals, we ordered take out this weekend, and were delighted to find the quality not only of the food, but the delivery packaging itself was on point. I implore you to stop by, as I need this restaurant to stay successful and thriving; so I can keep coming back for more of their food.

This place is absolutely amazing. I got the vegetarian mapo tofu, cucumber salad in scallion sauce, and Chengdu kung pou chicken. The mapo tofu was OUT OF THIS WORLD!! It was heart-warming, authentic, and perfectly spicy. I can't wait to come back and get more. (The portions are crazy huge so make sure you have fridge space for leftovers!)

So delicious and my craving for Chinese food was satisfied!! General Tso’s, sweet and sour chicken, and chicken lo mein were all amazing!

My food was absolutely perfect. All the way down to the slightly blistered onion in the pork fried rice. The general Tso’s chicken was spicy and crunchy and tender and sweet - like perfect perfect. The pork fried dumplings equally delicious. It’s some of the best Chinese take out I’ve had in Pittsburgh and I’m so surprised that I’ve never been here before. I will definitely be back. I was there last order this evening, which can sometimes at other restaurants lead to the food feeling like it was rushed.

The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it's over priced Chinese food. I get the same quality at my local takeout except it's not on a fancy plate at less than half the cost. Other than the ridiculous price tag, the food is quality, the service is top notch, and it has a neat atmosphere. Another thing i should mention... yes I think it's over priced... but I do eat here a few times a year... so it is pretty good.

If I could give zero stars I would. I will honestly say, I will NEVER eat here again. I ordered take out to be delivered and the food was disgusting. I wouldn’t have given it to a dog. I ordered Chang’s Spicy Chicken and all I got was bits and pieces of chicken and it was like clam strips. It never used to be that way. It was always chunks of white chicken. I ordered 6 pan fried shrimp dumplings that were barely(and I mean BARELY)pan fried that they were almost raw. I then ordered a kids orange chicken and all that was on the dish was battered chicken with no sauce at all. They were advertising a red velvet cake. I called and asked if I could substitute it for a key like and spoke to Heather on the phone and she went and asked her manager that said yes and she asked my last name so she could right it on the slip. I never got it. The management there is TERRIBLE! VERY unprofessional. They don’t return phone calls either. When I called and told them the issue, I spoke with Heather, and she gave me some convoluted story that they’ve been having a problem with their orange chicken, but they didn’t have the common sense to call me and say “hey we can’t do the orange chicken, would you like something else?”. I also asked for plates, soy sauce, fortune cookies, and special sauce that they offer on their site for delivery. Heather told me: “We don’t have special sauce”. Why offer it as an option if you’re not going to put it in the bag? PF Chang’s USED TO BE my favorite restaurant, but they have definitely seen the last of me. I recommend going to Panda Express. At least you can see the food being made right in front of you and what’s in the window. If you ask them to make it fresh for you, they accommodate gladly. $52.25 is a rip off for what I got and didn’t get.

This is some of the best Chinese food in Pittsburgh. Since I found this gem I probably stop in at least once a week and it’s always a feast. I love grabbing friends and eating family style. The staff is so kind. But be aware they are more eastern style in that they don’t wait on you hand and foot like expected in western dining, but you’ll get everything you need.

Honestly, I don't know how I ended up here but it was delish and the people were very nice. It's a small place and we made a reservation about an hour before showing up. I am a pretty routine kind of girl and I got the Kung Pao Shrimp and it was spicy! I don't believe in too spicy so I appreciated it. Every bite was delish. The portion size was large and could probably feed another me. I have no idea what my boyfriend ordered but he ordered an entire fish and it came with a glove, Their crab rangons might be the best that I've had in the city. I can't wait to check this place out again.

Loved the shrimp tempura here! It's nothing extra special but really tasty battered shrimp (see picture). I liked the taste of batter itself! Ordered steamed chicken dumplings but the stuffing inside was a bit bland for me but seemed healthy. Hunan chicken was good and little bit spicy but I would prefer really less oil in it.

This is the best Chinese restaurant in Pittsburgh. Although all the dishes are awesome. My favorite is vegetable egg rolls paired with chicken fried rice. The egg rolls are crispy outside doughy layers then filled with cabbage and veggies. The chicken fried rice is made to perfection.

I enjoyed my dinner here. Braised beef with tofu skin tasted delicious. The waiter was friendly, but the meal was a little bit pricey. I may want to come back to try other dishes.

Toufu is good, but not $28 good. Tea smoked duck is $28 very little meat, mostly bone and skin, sea food duo (shrimp and octopus) $38 not worth it, not very fresh, octopus is tough, they refried it, it’s not fresh made. Cumin lamb is good. Overall overpriced for what it is
