Hunan Cafe

This was my first time visiting after their recent renovation. The dishes here are authentic Hunan cuisine, with a strong focus on spicy and bold flavors. Everything pairs incredibly well with rice, and my personal favorite goes to the crayfish and frog in chili sauce. The portion size was absolutely huge. Lastly, I just want to mention that the staffs working there were also very patient in introducing their specialty dishes to us. I highly recommend everyone to come here for some hot and spicy Hunan dishes!

It was my first time at Xiang Shui Shanzhuang, and as someone who doesn’t eat spicy food, I wasn’t sure what to expect—but I loved it! The staff was very helpful and recommended several non-spicy options that were incredibly tasty. The stone pot fish, Mao’s braised pork, and salt & pepper shrimp were all delicious. The restaurant feels authentic, the portions are generous, and the service is great. Perfect spot for anyone wanting to try Hunan cuisine, even if you can’t handle spice!

The dishes are fresh, flavorful, and have just the right level of spice. Service is fast, portions are generous, and the menu has many standout dishes. Definitely worth trying if you love bold, comforting Hunan cuisine.”

I absolutely loved this restaurant! It was clean, tidy, and stylishly decorated. I loved every single dish. I asked the owner if it was suitable for large gatherings, and he showed me a private room that could seat 18 people – that was fantastic!

The renovated interior design and furniture are supreme. The waiters are stellar with great service and attention. The food was good. The chef was spectacular especially the king crab was amazing. The only thing that ruined the whole experience was when I was paying the $456 bill, the cashier girl was so rude -rolling her eyes and ignoring my question about payment status.

Had a really bad experience there, maybe ten years ago. Decided to give it another try. It turned out to be much better. Every dish tastes just great. We went in early for lunch - the only ones at that time. Probably they just did cleaning, and there was weird smell, but not strong, so it was ok. But next time, I'd avoid that time period. Tip check: calculated after tax.

Went to try this place with my cousin. This place is modern and pretty good atmosphere. Notable dishes we had were the pork over eggs which was very flavorful. The other dish that was really good was the free range chicken. Does have a lot of little chipped bones. The smoked preserved pork belly was weird tasting. The beef dish has a lot of tendons. The fish soup was not the best. Had better at “fish with you” in the heart of flushing. Worth giving a try.

Went on a Sunday for lunch. I really loved their stinky tofu. The grilled fish was well seasoned. There was a time when many places served grilled fish, that's no longer the case. The last place in flushing that really about grilled fish, Hot Space, is really a shadow of its former self. This grilled fish was excellent, in presentation and flavor. however, the toppings were a la carte, would have been nice if they had a package of 4 or 5 toppings for 15 or something.

We used to go to Hunan Cafe often pre-covid but stopped when the quality dropped. We went again on a Friday night to see if it was better after the renovations. We were pleasantly surprised at the food, portions, service and spaciousness of the new design! Our girls loved the chicken rice noodle soup (incredibly flavorful broth), tripe with bamboo shoots, spicy pig trotter, and spicy cauliflower. Everything was delicious, not too salty with good sized portions so we had a lot doggy bagged. My husband dropped a chopstick and one of the staff quickly ran over to give him a new pair without asking. They also had ikea utensils for kids which was a nice touch. Glad their quality is back, and can't wait to try other dishes.

After some reflection, I am giving the restaurant a Five star. It could be better, but given there are only 2 decent Human-Shichuan restaurants left in Flushing, I need to give it a rating of 5 to show support. It is still the best Human restaurant in Flushing. If you want something authentic, you need to tell them that you are OK with spicy food. The other good Shichuan restaurant in Flushing is Daxi. They have cooks from China and the food is more like authentic Chinese food. This one could not resist the temptation to westernize. Still very good, though.

Slightly off the main drag of Flushing, I recommend this spot for their Hunan delicacies. I've been looking for legit Hunan food, as its hard to find, and came across this place and gave it a go. You can look up Hunan food in general, but its known for its heat and dishes like stinky tofu. I dined in and got the White Pepper and Cured Beef $18.95 Small Fried Stinky Tofu $12.95 I thought both dishes were great. I did ask for the beef to be extra hot and they seemingly complied. The heat going in wasn't any hotter than anything I've eaten before, but the after effects of the spiciness were stronger for sure, lol. I wasn't really sure if I should have gotten the stinky tofu, as I don't like durian and wasn't sure if it was the same stinkiness, but it actually wasn't that bad. Yes it has a mild smell, but definitely not pungent and (imho gross) like durian. I will note that the bathroom there leaves a little bit to be desired, so definitely try not to need that if you're gonna go here. There were at least half a dozen other items I want to try, so I'll be back for sure, despite how rarely I'm in Flushing. Loo

I came here for my bday few days ago. They actually just renovated. Its a lot nicer now and has few private rooms. which is nice for family or private dinner parties. All the waiters were nice and friendly. which is a plus. Now to the important part. food. this place has imo excellent food. all the dishes I ordered was good and tasty. lil spicy, which it should b, since this is a spicy restaurant. all the dishes hit the spot just right. you can always ask the waiter to cater the spicyness to your tolerence. so no need to worry about it being too spicy or not as spicy. mayb one downside is the dishes are a lil small. but thats a very lil thing. has no affect on my opinion of this place. From their service to their foof varieties to their food taste, hands down 5 stars. So anyone that is nearby or even not nearby. if you like or love spicy food, def go try this spot. wont b disappointed. and even if youre not into spicy food, still give it a try. it might make you a fan.

Delicious cumin lamb, green chilli pepper beef, and beef tripe cold appetizer. Great portions at good prices. Service is also very good. But we liked the above so much that one day we strayed. Got their house signature chicken dish and a seafood lo mein and soup dumplings. The most over priced diced boney spicy chicken - tiny pieces of boney chicken. We hated it. Seafood lo mein had almost no seafood and tasted worse than takeout Chinese. As if they cooked it and washed it in oil or water, totally soggy. It was so bad that my uber old mom who I have NEVER in my life witness complain at any restaurant pulled over the waiter to complain about the noodles. And the soup dumplings. Oh god, why did we even do that when there are so many great soup dumplings places in flushing? My fault I guess. Ok so, still worth a try and we will likely return but only for a few dishes. I'm scared to stray from the tried and true now. Star rating: 5: A+ Worth a special journey (ie. I would go out of my way, maybe even take a flight somewhere just for this; exceptionally amazing) 4: A excellent, a must try, solid place 3: B good; nothing extraordinary, but would definitely go again 2: C personally would never go again (unless invited by someone and I didn't get to pick the place), but I can see how others might find something appealing 1: Fail. I would never return and recommend no on else goes either.

Unfortunately, I believe this place has closed down. Hopefully it will reopen. I am leaving four stars because I ate here before, and it was excellent. It has one star from Michelin.

Hunan tastes. Spicy, Hot! I like spicy food. Just good for me! Price is around 20-40. 5 adults may cost 200!

Our favorite restaurant in Flushing. Love their fish dishes. Lamb is excellent too. Very good price forgot to take pics of all the dishes.

One of the better Szechuan restaurants in Flushing. Food is amazing, not too spicy and not too salty. Would recommend cauliflower, tastes amazing with excellent flavor. Service is alright, food takes 7-15 minutes to arrive. Waiters are fine. Ambiance is also okay, not amazing but not bad. Feels like a regular restaurant. Overall, would definitely go there again.

Nicely decorated restaurant! The food is so delicious! Lunch special is a great deal! I love how spicy the food is. They have really great options! Every time I've called the restaurant the people who pick up are very nice to speak with and take my order accurately. They are also very welcoming when I pick up my order. Highly recommend Hunan Cafe! Amazing food and a great deal!

Great taste, price, and decoration. Good amount of spicy without being overbearing. Range of options to choose from. Top picks are their fish with chili oil, pork with bamboo, mao pork, sour bean with pork. Staff are kind, friendly, quick.

Whenever I'm in the Flushing area, I always end up coming here for a meal. Great food and unique takes on classic dishes. Doesn't hold back on the spiciness level either.

My gf and I love this restaurant for Chinese food. Pre-vid we always came here after our massages. When the massage placed closed, we still continued to come. Authentic, tasty, spicy, and even zagat rated. We always order the lamb with cumin... The dessert which is some concoction with sweet balls is fantastic... I usually come for an early dinner, say 530-6 on sunday and the service is impeccable. Come early and you will not be disappointed. I'm looking forward to making our way back soon.

Do not go there for a "lunch special"..... although the food is, I must admit, excellent. That's because they no longer honor the lunch special offerings which appear on the overall menu's back page. Advice to management: If the specials are no longer offered (or, "profitable") delete them from the menu. I drove to your place, twice, to only be disappointed, twice. I couldn't believe it the first time. For the record, I have had many, many lunches at the Hunan House in past years without incident. Not once. But the TWO times I most recently tried went to the restaurant to have a lunch special, the waiter refused to take my order, even though the specials were still on the back page of the larger/overall a la carte menu! (That just doesn't make any sense!!) A disappointed ex-customer

腊肉太差又少味道也不好，猪皮上面还有毛。Fried bacon with garlic sprouts, the bacon tastes bad, and there are hairs on the pork skin.

No stars if I could. Awfully oily and salty that left me feeling quite nauseous. Such a shame when you commute from the city to flushing you have high expectations.

This is one of my go-to places in Flushing. I can't believe that I haven't reviewed it yet. It is located on Northern Blvd, a bit outside of the main downtown area of Flushing, as such, we never have to wait long for a table. The restaurant may not look much on the outside, the interior is quite different. The decor is understated for Chinese restaurant standards and well maintained. The staff is friendly (again, for Chinese restaurant standards), helpful and responsive. Most importantly, the food is consistently good, I have not been disappointed by a dish here yet. Hunan cuisine is known for its spicy flavor, however, we tried a few non-spicy dishes here, and they did not disappoint. Some of my favorite dishes here are: Spicy Beef Tendon & Ox Tongue and Tripe with Spicy Peppery Sauce - not for the faint of heart. These dishes are definitely spicy and the ingredients could be a bit strange for those not familiar with Chinese cuisine. These two are the quintessential southern Chinese appetizers, they are great with beer or rice. Cucumber Salad - a good dish to help cut the spiciness of the other dishes. The cucumber salad here is well made with the perfect amount of crunchiness and sourness. Beef with Spicy Green Pepper - one of my go-to dishes. I love the tenderness and robust flavor of the beef. I have to admit that I usually pick out the peppers because I am too chicken to eat them. However, I love how the peppers give the beef the perfect amount of spiciness. Water Spinach Root - Definitely order this dish if you see it on the menu. They take the leaves out of water spinach, leaving only the roots and chop them up into tiny pieces. It is the perfect dish to pair with fatty meat, mapo tofu or just rice. I have tried to replicate this dish at home and it is a lot of prep work. If you only get one vegetable, get this one. String Beans - a seemingly simple dish, but well executed. The outside of the string beans are crunchy, while the inside is soft. Some places drench the string beans in oil in order to sear the outside, but that's not the case here. Lamb with Cumin Flavor - another go-to dish. I've always try to order the lamb if I see it on the menu. The lamb is well seasoned but not over-powered by the cumin. Overall, most of the dishes here are pretty good, if you are in doubt, just ask the servers, they will help guide you through the menu. They definitely cater to a more Chinese crowd, as such, the kitchen is not shy with the spices, so be prepared!!

Find a cockroach in their food!!! Hope they could pay attention on restaurant hygiene！

Love Spicy food. Fancy decoration, traditional Chinese style. Ordered the spicy fish head, grilled duck, and smelly tofu. loved everything we ordered. The staffs were friendly. Too bad the bf did not have room for dessert. But I'm sure is great as well.

Not really into chinese food but got lamb and chicken dishes with their fried rice. It was pretty good and it was priced at decently as well.

If Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemon, and Tony Curtis were still around, I have a feeling they'd be into this place. Or would they? Like the above trio, you see, we like it hot. We even pride ourselves on having weaned our kid on hot sauce over the years, starting with Frank's, and working our way up to "blow your ears off" Dot's Fire in a Bottle from Barbados. But I think we may have met our match with Hunan cuisine: We ordered Water Spinach Root, Cumin Lamb, and Beef with Crispy Peppers. The latter, which featured lots of tender pieces of beef, was my favorite. The Cumin Lamb was good too, but contained way too much sliced onion v. meat. Didn't love the former, which amounted to a big pile of sauteed thinly sliced roots. It was definitely interesting to try but would have worked better as a smaller, less expensive side. I believe it was $12.95 and there was just too much of it. Now, here's the thing. All three dishes were crazy hot. Even the accompanying rice didn't help. So our meal tasted off-balance. Not sure if the Hunanese have an equivalent of cooling Indian yogurt raita, but something like that sure would've come in handy. Appreciated the personable, efficient service and pleasant-by-Flushing-standards ambiance. Since this spot is located on the outskirts of the main downtown drag, parking was also not impossible. After eating here, I became curious about Hunan cooking and came across this Chinese joke that I am totally paraphrasing: Sichuanese aren't afraid of food that's hot... But the Hunanese are afraid of food that isn't hot. Am quite sure this is far more hilarious in the proper Chinese dialect.:) ps My experience was more like 3.5 stars, but am choosing to round down because the overall meal just wasn't 4-star worthy. Yelp, when are you going to offer a .5 star option?

DO NOT COME TO THIS PLACE.! We booked a table for 5 on Father's Day. When we arrived there (and we were on time), the staff said he accidentally gave our table to someone else. Then he took us upstairs to a room where over 20 people were celebrating someone's birthday. The kids were yelling and the people were talking very loud. I don't blame them because they were celebrating and they had the room all to themselves before we came in. But obviously, we can't have a dinner there. My father-in-law can't even hear us talking because of the noise. When we try to see if we can change a table, the staff said he can't do anything because our table was already given to someone else and he couldn't take it back. He then became very rude and impatient. There were still other tables available but he won't let us sit there. We waited downstairs for another 10 minutes, no one came to us as if we do not exist. We ultimately left and didn't have dinner there. Such a bad experience. Ruined our father's day dinner. Never going to come back to this place again!

Very bad, I never have this experience. I ordered a shrimp fried rice, Mabo tofu and pork. They delivered after closed their restaurant. It was 2 hours to delivery. The meal was not special. Total amount was US$84.- including everything. I do not believe this restaurant ever.

Food tastes really good! And the service is great!!!! It's very affordable as well. We have a group of 8 and ordered many dishes and alcohol.

Warning: It's really spicy. You may end up breathing fire. From my other reviews, you can see I enjoy eating spicy. My definition of spicy is that if it doesn't burn my insides, it's not spicy. Sriracha sauce, golchujang, kimchi, and Indian curry are merely flavoring. But Hunanese food is a challenge in of itself for me. So it was a cold evening last night (12/10) and my buddy and I wanted to grab some spicy food. Originally I thought about heading over to Fu Run nearby, but I had a better idea - Hunanese food, which is almost like guaranteed spicy. I've went back in summer 2014 with some friends. It was a bad idea that time since it was hot and the level of spice almost sent me crying. Now it made more sense to try the same level of spice on a wintry day, even though we were several drinks in and no idea of ours was any good. We settled on the braised sliced beef with the chili sauce for 16.95. It was served in a giant bowl with a sauce/soup redder than the Red Sea. Other than the beef, there's also some cabbage slices that helped cool down the fire. Honestly that itself should have been good enough for us. But we ordered also the spicy chicken with the hot pepper for 12.95. The beef was well flavored and wasn't too dry like in some other places. Well-textured. Now the chicken. That was HELL. The chicken was partly fried, was considerably dried, and there were bits of bones in it. To add to that, there was almost more pepper than chicken, the hellish kind of pepper. It was the food equivalent of some obstacle course. Listen, both of us love to eat spicy. My buddy's Trinidadian Indian and he eats spicy three meals a day. You saw my own intro before. But both of us labored and sweated through the chicken and the beef. It would've been a good idea to order some vegetables or a soup to cool down. Not to say the chicken was bad. We should have ordered that or the beef, not both. Or we should have ordered something to cool that stuff down.

This is one of our favorite place to get Hunan food. The lobster dish is very good. My girlfriend is from The Hunan Provence and she said the food reminds her of home. We highly recommend this restaurant.

Really good Hunan cuisine here. And great for bumping into friends you haven't seen in years =P We were a party of 3, but coincidentally, our table was right next to an old friend and his acquaintance. The staff were so nice to accommodate us on Christmas Eve and found a bigger round table to seat all of us (and move their food to the new table since they've started eating already). 1. Mao's Braised Pork - delicious and juicy. For anyone that loves fat and not afraid of chunky bacon. 2. Mapo Tofu - I think this was the best mapo tofu I ever ate. The tofu is silky and smooth, wrapped in a thin layer of tofu skin to keep the tofu intact (formed when fried?). 3. Pumpkin Cakes - it tasted better last time. This one was a bit soggy. Too much water content before frying. 4. Fish Filet - Fresh, smooth, delicate, and no bones! A bit spicy too. 5. Water Spinach - it taste good. This place is awesome. I don't understand why my Mom doesn't like Hunan food.

Food is ok. Subpar. Hard to please, like first food was cold. Like don't even get me started with room temp, it's cold, like they took it from the refrigerator and reheated it for like 15 sec, and present it to me. Rice cold, vegetables cold, pork belly cold. Now you allow customers smoke in front of the door allowing all the smoke to not only leave but enter the premises and now my cold food becomes cigarette style Smoked cold Chinese food. They used to be so good, now they got their fame in their ass.

A frequent customer. Always loved the food here. Staff always has been friendly and attentive

All the Sichuan places in Nyc needs to hold this up as an example. I've been to Hunan cafe many times through the years and it's consistently amazing. They offer an array of dishes you cannot find anywhere else, ie spicy lamb steamed in wood, spicy peppers with black bean, egg fried with green peppers to name a few. Usually not a fan of lamb but the lamb dish is amazing, comes with some mushrooms and sour string beans , dollop this spicy tingling flavorful concoction over rice and you will be in heaven. Their steamed egg with minced pork may sound simple but the texture here is perfect, glossy, wobbly and seasoned with flavored minced pork, another go to dish. The spicy pork intestine was a fav tonite and their smoked duck got compliments but I wasn't so much a fan. Everything was good. The decor is cute and very traditional bourgeois Chinese, Waitstaff seemed harassed and understaffed but were polite and capable, prices are always reasonable . Def do yourself a favor and come eat here in a group so you can sample various dishes

Oh my god. The food here was so good. My friend had been dying to go here forever.. we brought in a group of 15 (no reservations, Saturday night) and they gave us a nice big table. She spoke to the manager/servers and arranged the whole menu for us (she KNOWS how to order - that might be required to really experience this restaurant). Our food was a little slow but worth the wait. Get the lamb! And this dish with fried soft tofu, with peas/shrimp. Sorry for the horrific descriptions, but I really didnt' know what any dish was. Everything was so good!! Beef, fish, soup, veggies. Everything. We got a TON of food and it was only about $20/person w/ tax & tip. POSITIVES: - Great food. Authentic. Amazing flavors. - Good service. Took care of our last minute large group well. - Cheap! NEGATIVES: - All I can think of is that it's in Flushing - just a longer commute than usual.

I used to love this place so much. My recent trip there and a takeout experience made me wonder what happened?!? Did they change the chef?! The food doesn't taste good any more and the portion has shrunken so much! I don't really know what happened to them. But I would definitely go somewhere else in the future. Very sorry for them.

I like the Cozy environment and foods are really good! If you like spicy foods, it is your best choice!

I was coming from a massage session at the Sun Spa (great massage) only a few doors down and was super hungry as I'd not eaten all day. I asked the receptionist where I could find really good Hunan Style food. She recommended this place. So I looked for it on my trusty YELP! and sure enough it was there with a 4 star rating. When you look at it from outside it looks like nothing special but when you go inside its nice. Seems like a family style restaurant. Zagats gave it a B rating and I would agree not quite an A status. The staff was polite enough. They offered me a fork which I promptly refused because I've been eating with chopsticks since I was 13yrs old!!! Now I'm 50 and still eat with chopsticks!! Anyway, I ordered the slightly fried Spinach w Garlic, Rice and Crispy Duck. So much food!! No way I could eat it all!! I had to take the rest home!!! I wasn't a fan of the brown sauce that came with the dish though...ugh! So, I had them bring me the spicy chili sauce, which to me was not that spicy (I'm Caribbean so I'm used to REAL SPICED food...JERK IT!! Oops wrong culture, lol). Very tasty food though. If I was in the area ever again I'd probably come back. SURPRISE!!! The food was served right away right after I had ordered! Overall I have no complaints, besides the restroom was a bit disheveled.

Waiter was very rude. I gave him 15% tips and he chased out and asked for 20% tips.

Service is terrible... no word to describe. Food is not bad but not traditional hunan food. Every dish is very light. Lunch special is not enough for a adult. Will not go any more.

My fiancé and I just recently moved to the area, so we came here for dinner this past weekend. I ordered the chicken & broccoli and he ordered general tsos chicken and beef lomein. The service was great, very good customer service. However, I wasn't in love with my meal, it didn't have much flavor & was very bland, although my fiancé loved his.

Thank you Michelin guide for leading me to the best chinese restaurant I've ever been to in NYC, and certainly the most authentic hunan food I've had outside of China. If you come here be prepared to endure some spice, because this stuff will definitely make you sweat. Not wanting to try the basic stuff like Mapo Tofu, we branched out and had: - Tofu in chili sauce (including an insane amount of minced garlic) - Lamb with cumin, cooked with peppers and cilantro (wow!) - Shrimp in Hunan sauce - Water spinach sauteed with fermented tofu Everything was awesome, and in city where you have to struggle to find spicy chinese and thai food, the spice was very welcomed. I'm looking forward to coming back with a larger group and trying more dishes, like the Mao's braised pork and the braised fish that everybody raves about.

After going only to szchuan and northern Chinese in Flushing we decided to spread out to Hunan and Cantonese. This foray was Hunan and Hunan House was a great pick. Right off Main St on Northern Blvd this place was the bomb! Not only very nice looking but very hospitable and comfortable. Starting with apps, we had Soup Dumplings and Dan Dan Noodles. Enjoyed having food that taste good first and hot second. Requested hot oil and to my surprise they offered us a homemade version with roasted hot peppers with a great flavor and then a hot kick on the backend! Great ...the braised sliced fish and cumin lamb were again not what we were used to but fantastic in their own Hunan right. Fr dessert we had great pumpkin patties...really delicious! We look forward to our next visit so we can try other menu items...certainly worth a visit....and opened late!

I'm no expert on Hunan cuisine, but I do love me some spicy food and Hunan House definitely delivers on spicy. From what I've noticed, Hunan cuisine differs from Sichuan cuisine in that their dishes don't require Chinese peppercorns and thus are not ma la (numbing spicy). Instead they seem to rely more on chili oil, chili peppers, and garlic to pack their punch. While Sichuan spicy creeps up on you, Hunan spicy hits you right away. So far I've visited twice and I've liked or loved all the dishes we ordered. Everything has been executed perfectly and there hasn't been one single dud. My absolute faves were the spicy sliced tendons (perfect flavor/texture and coated with just enough chili oil), spicy intestine casserole (so pungently spicy!), and the spicy lotus roots (great crunch, very spicy with no oil). Though the lotus roots were my favorite veggie, the spicy potato strips come in at a close second; these flavors/textures definitely overlap though so I'd recommend just picking one. Their rendition of sliced fish in chili oil is quite good, though perhaps a little stingy on the fish. And the spicy and crispy whole fish (from the daily specials menu) was also on the small side, but delivered in flavor. If you need a couple of non-spicy options, I recommend the braised pork belly which was perfectly tender, the cumin lamb which isn't completely non-spicy but it was very mildly spicy, and the fried green beans. All of the soups are non-spicy as well; both the house special soup and the seaweed spare rib soup I tried were solid. The menu is picture heavy and really easy to navigate, and don't forget to check out what's on their daily specials menu. The portions here are meant to be shared family style, so I highly recommend going in a group of 4 or more so you can try a good variety of dishes. The only reason why they get 4 stars and not 5 is because their service can be a bit spotty. It's not terrible but it's far from good, and for a restaurant whose decor suggests that they're aiming for a better-than-just-your-neighborhood-Chinese-restaurant experience, they could really do with some better training for their waitstaff.

I ate here with my leadership dev't team this past week. Yes there were probably more than 30 people, but it should not have taken over 45 minutes for the food to come out. This is not an exaggeration. As a pescatarian, I was not impressed by the food choices. Although we ate "family-style" and rotated the spinning table top, I was only able to taste a few veg options and the spicy shrimp that I ordered. The veg spicy cauliflower was decent. The veg eggplant dish was nasty. The stir-fried prawns with hot spicy sauce were neither stir-fried nor spicy. Instead, prawns with shells were doused in oil and a ton of red chillis. By the time you got the meat out of the shells, the flavor was bland. Plus, the chillis were not sauteed or anything... there were just about 20 chili peppers cut in half and scattered on that plate. There is no way that this place should be Michelin guide recommended. Someone paid a bribe for that. Clearly.

The food is good most of the time, but the quantity is terrible. Every time we order string beans for take out, it only half container full. We keep ordering from their restaurant because the taste is pretty good. Last time we asked them please to add more string beans, because not even fill up half container. They said it would be extra charge for that....(however, we got more string beans without being extra charged. Appreciated!) Then, we order string beans again this afternoon. I was very disppointed. That's why I feel like I need to write something to let other customers know about that.

I went this hunan restaurant again because first time my visit was very Impressive but my second visit was very disappointing. Beef noodle soup was too salty and my wife's food also salty. After I finished meal I had to drink almost gallons of water.

Come and try what is real hunan food in the flushing ,the fish head so fresh and so tasty

I ordered $70.50 food for the delivery, and the lady who picked up my call told me they can't do delivery unless I order above $80. By driving it's only 7 minute distance and the worker told me it's too far away to do the delivery. It must be above $80. Which is really ridiculous. Plus last time, the delivery guy asked me 30% of the whole price delivery fee. I'm not going to this place ever again.

Ordered the Chicken with Hot Red Pepper and Vegetable Lai Mein. Ummm, the chicken was overcooked, rubbery and full of small bones. Also, there were more peppers than actual chicken and too salty. The lai mein was decent. There were four of us, and none of us liked it. No thanks.

Came here Friday afternoon. We were the only table in the restaurant. The staff was very quick. I feel like all of our order came within 5 mins. Braised slice beef w/ chili sauce: 4/5 the beef was very tender but the sauce was not as flavorful as I thought it would be Lamb w/ Cumin: 5/5 this is so good we basically finished it in 5 mins Water Spinach Root w/ Green Pepper: 4/5 very oily to the point that it's dripping oil but it tasted really good There's so many other interesting items on the menu that I really want to try. Definitely coming back here

This is what good/authentic Chinese food tastes like. No, seriously. The flavor of the food is about as legit as it gets. Note that dishes here tend to be on the spicy side - but at a recent dinner party I had the fortune of sampling a wide variety of their dishes. The spicy beef was absolutely excellent. The full spicy flavor of the sauce was cooked into the meat and the texture was ridiculously tender. Another outstanding dish was the egg custard which was also tender and succulent with the ground meat trimmings. The hot chili fish was also excellent, well prepared the the meat was also very tender. The service here was good and I also liked the tasteful decor of the restaurant. There's a certain level of professionalism and discipline here with the entire experience that is often lacking in many other Chinese restaurants in town. To find a place that serves tasty and authentic food in a decent setting is truly rare in Flushing (and elsewhere). I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a good Chinese place that doesn't feel like a hole in the wall full of rude ass waiters.

Spicy spicy spicy!!! Just the way I like it. If you can't tolerate SUPER spicy food, this place is not for you. I was here last night having dinner for a friends birthday and it was delicious. We ordered 10 different dishes. I highly recommend that you give each of their cold platters a try. They are all very yummy. My favorite is their spicy fish head!!! It is the bomb!!! My only complaint is their service is very crappy. The staff is not attentive and forgets to bring you some of the dishes you ordered. If u want something, you have to call out to them. Otherwise, they won't come to u to clean your table or ask u if u need anything else. Tip: Make sure you order their can herbal tea or soda bc water is NOT going to help tone down the spicy taste is your mouth.
