Hunan Bistro 湘知湘味

We ordered chili beef which is way too hot for me, but my husband likes it. The cold dish was good and tasty. The steamed eggs were flavorless. The shrimp dish was okay. Their menu is big, you need plenty of time to review and find out which ones you like.

Food is a great price, service is super friendly, definitely one of the better places to get food in china town.

I enjoy dining at this place, and their food has just the right amount of spices. However, I found most of the dishes to be overly salty, with the eggplant dish with eggs being the only exception. It almost seems like they intend for you to eat a lot of rice with their dishes to balance out the saltiness. Despite this, the food overall tasted good, and it would be even better if they could tone down the salt. The service is fine; it's not top-notch but understandable given the busy times. The staff is generally attentive, though there can be slight delays during peak hours. I also tried their takeout once, and I didn't like it. The food didn't taste fresh and had a strong pork smell. For the best experience, I recommend dining in, as the food and ambiance are much better when enjoyed on-

Place was clean and server was friendly! Chinese customers kept on coming to the restaurant during dinner time, must be authentic enough to attract so many of them. Additionally, I really enjoy the menu with photos ;) Cumin Beef 4/5 Tasty but too little beef and too much cilantro (menu photo showed less) Hot Tango Fish Fillet 5/5 I love it Lotus Pork Rib Soup 3/5 I want to like it but I was disappointed. Does not taste like home. The white pepper overtook the soup.

It's criminal this place isn't reviewed higher. Excellent Mala dishes all around. A great, diverse menu. It's excellent all around. The staff are really friendly as well. A real gem.
