This place is awesome! I don't know about what used to be here -- sushi??? -- but this place is super legit, delicious Hunan food. (If you've never had it, you've gotta try it -- you might be forgiven if you mistake it for Sichuan cuisine but just because it's spicy doesn't mean it's the same! Hunan cuisine is one of the great 8 sub-cuisines of China and it's excellent: spicy, yes, but also really complex; plays with sour, savory flavors much more often.)
We got takeout via Doordash (COVID, hooray) and it came on time, hot, and delicious. We got the sticky rice with steamed ribs and corn ($22), the sauteed Chinese cauliflower with pork belly ($16ish), the chicken gizzards with pickled longbeans, and the pork lard fried rice. Everything was excellent. The fried rice was rich and aromatic without relying overly on salt. The gizzards were great -- the longbeans do a lot to offset the gamey taste and texture of gizzards. The cauliflower was to die for, and the ribs were also beautifully tender and flavorful.
Total, we paid $85 after tip (delivery was free). Portions were generous; if the food weren't so delicious, we probably would've had enough for 5 meals (2 people)...
I can't wait to order takeout from this place again, and visit in person after all this is over! Hunan cuisine is going to be the next hot thing in the same way Sichuan was 5 years ago, and I'm here for it.
