"Ma La" in Chinese means Numbness and Spiciness. For a good Sichuan restaurant you can't just have spicy but no numbness in your dish. This place uses good quality spices. Really recommend everyone just order less spicy for all the dishes. We ordered a ma po tofu with beef (the most signature dish for Sichuan restaurant) It's really good and have a nice kick. The combination Ma La dry pot also have a good numbness kick but mostly spicy. It's a dish with beef, chicken, shrimp with veggies. Peppercorn fish is more numb than spicy. The only small compliant is that the soup spicy soup is more like spicy spicy soup. It's better after we add vinegar to the soup. The ingredients are fresh and the portion are good. Most important is that they use real spices instead of additive flavor. The price is also very reasonable. Three dishes with one soup cost us $60 before tips. Recommend to people that enjoys Ma La. Let numbness and spiciness explode in your mouth but that doesn't hurt your stomach.
Loved finding this hidden gem in the energy corridor! The food comes out quick and it's so good! If you like spicy this is the place for you, but if not, they have many other options! I love the Hawaiian fried rice and the country blood soup. The chicken cube is really good to and so crispy! Can't wait to try more!

Great Szechuan food and service. Everything we ordered was delicious. It had a good amount of spicy, but not overpowering. They're also BYOB as well.

Food is fresh and delicious, nice interior decorations. The quantity of food is above average so you get your money worth. The spiciness is right on spot, I picked mild and it was mild. Would definitely come again!

Great place for some Szechuan food in the energy corridor! The service was very quick (expected since I came on a Sunday at 2:30pm and it was pretty empty).
Ordered the Dan Dan noodles and chili oil dumplings to start. Dan Dan noodles were okay, they could use a bit more flavor and I thought they would be dry noodles? Chili oil dumplings were good.
The entrees are what really make this place so great. Ordered the amazing crispy fish and snow peas w/ garlic. Amazing crispy fish is as crispy as the name suggests! Fantastic crunch and lots of flavor! The snow peas w/ garlic were also super flavorful. Will definitely be coming back.

4th time here and continue to be impressed by the quality of food and service. The authentic Szechuan cuisine is definitely what I keep coming back.
Restaurant decor is inviting, I particularly like the large mural in the main dining area. Dining area is clean and well maintained.

Our favorite Chinese restaurant right now.
Have been at least 5 times!!!
Favorite thing is the giant portion of Singapore noodles! Best we have ever had. All the classic fried chicken dishes are supper crispy and good. Orange beef was very tasty and had surprise edible bites of ginger.
Dan Dan noodles are fun.
Wulu chicken is good.
Cumin dishes are good but a little dry.
I struggled with the Szechuan beef though.

Blown away by the amazing dishes we tried. We had the Dan Dan noodles, red oil dumplings, cumin beef, spicy chicken cube, and the spicy fish. Everything was phenomenal! Hats off to the chef. Will definitely be back and recommending to friends. Thank you for the excellent service as well. BYOB as well.
