Famous Sichuan 川外川

Mapo tofu tasted good but it was not mala at all, was not what I wanted. Service is fine but they basically hide tip into your bill which is ???. Also the prices here are ridiculous for Chinese. Don't recommend

10/10! We stumbled upon this restaurant as we were walking. Walked in impulsively and do not regret it one bit! - service was soooo nice and welcoming - HUGE menu - DELICIOUS food - calming, peaceful music - complimentary rice and tea! 🍚🫖

The food is great - the order is quick. Second time going there with my husband. First visit ordered soup - was massive. And also ordered fried rice and the broiled beef. In the pictures below are The pork dumplings which are great - can tell they are freshly/home made. Lots of flavor. The broiled beef is also soooo good. We asked for spicy but it wasn’t very spicy. I think they were afraid to make it too spicy for my husband (😆) but he can handle spice better than me. I would totally recommend going there and trying the broiled beef and dumplings!

Fast service and such good food! We got beef noodle soup, their pork dumplings, Sichuan spicy cucumbers, and the stir stir fried spicy beef. Everything was amazing. The dumplings melt in your mouth, the beef had a nice crunch and crispiness to it, the beef noodle soup was amazing. Love this place!

Title: Scammy billing practices — beware Review: Food was just okay, but the real problem was the bill. They overcharged us by $9 compared to the menu, then claimed it was an “old menu” but couldn’t show a new one. Only refunded $5 and still added a bogus $3.31 “tech fee.” Totally dishonest. I have receipts — this felt like a scam. Plenty of honest businesses in Chinatown deserve your money more. Skip this place.
