“Don't let the name(Chuan) fool you--while they serve skewers, the Iron Pot Stew (Tie Guo Tun) and the Guo Bao Rou (Guo Bao Rou) are the true stars here. Hands down the best Guo Bao Rou I've ever had. Most versions use a thin batter that turns into a soggy, "wet hair" mess once the sauce hits the pork, but not here. The batter is thick, airy, and structured, almost reminiscent of a Tempura but different. It stays voluminous and crunchy rather than collapsing or turning into a sticky, chewy mass. The Sauce is also perfectly balanced and light. It coats the pork without being cloying, allowing that "shatteringly crisp" crust to shine. It's a texture masterclass. Guo Bao Rou GOAT. Beef Tendon Iron Pot Stew: We shared this among four people and the portion was massive. It's rich, deeply comforting, and perfect for a group. The Skewers: At $7.99 for 10, they are a great value. They are "bite-sized" (on the smaller side), so treat them more like a side snack. Verdict: Service is standard, but the food is elite. If you appreciate a Guo Bao Rou Guo Bao Rou that stays crispy and "alive" on the plate, this is your spot. 5/5 stars.”

“It is a great place for friends to go! And it has the authentic flavor My friends and me have gone there for three times so I definitely recommend this restaurant! Their server's attitude is so nice!”

“Ate exclusively the shao kao (barbecue) and it was amazing. A friend originally from Beijing said it's just as good as what he had in China. My favorites were the lamb, beef and octopus but everything was good with their spice mix.”
