"I go to Spices 3 specifically for a tongue-tingling dose of the mala peppercorns found in southwestern Sichuan province. Try the classic dish liang fen, a spicy mung bean noodle dish doused in soy sauce and black vinegar and topped with chilis, or one of the other fiery Sichuan staples like ma po tofu, dan dan noodles, and water boiled fish in red oil. If you need a bold palate cleanser, try their Taiwanese-inspired stinky fried tofu." - daphne wu

Came here on a Monday around 6pm (2 people total) and got a seat right away. The eggplant with chili (different than the eggplant with garlic) is so delicious! Highly recommend getting that and the mapo tofu. Plenty of indoor seating. Service is quick (got our food within 10min). Cash only.

Dine is cash only Food is great. We had three dishes and they all met or exceeded expectations in terms of flavor and portions. Service was fast and efficient. Dishes came out within 10 minutes of ordering them.

Such great, fresh tasting food. Got the marinated cucumbers (zesty and garlicky), scallion pancake (light, like pillows) and garlic beef over rice (tasty with nice beef strips). All STUNNING. This New Yorker is happy!

I’ve been to a few Szechuan style places around the Bay, mostly in the South Bay like JX Cuisine, and this far surpasses them. Try the Cumin lamb, excellent smoky chili flavor. Spicy hot enough to feel it, and it won’t stop you from having a conversation. Tea was free for me at lunch on a Saturday. Truly five star atmosphere, the big wooden chairs are memorable, not like a typical dining hall.

If you are around china town, you must go here!! The food is delicious and the service very fast! They serve hot tea for everyone while you wait. My favorite dish is the fish in garlic paste and chilli oil. It is sooo delicious and savory. The fish is enough for 2 people if you get some rice! Highly suggest getting the garlic sauteed eggplant as well.

As a person who’s born and raised in China, I can tell you that the spicy Chinese food here is truly amazing. Their La Zi Ji is my favorite — please try it out!

Great affordable food in a nice place. They are now inside hot pot house. The mapo tofu is delicious and the beef and broccoli is great. The couples delight is a great app or the scallion pancake is delicious.

During my recent visit to Spices 3 in Oakland, I tried their "Gangsta" Casserole"Murder Style" hot pot with seafood, pork blood, intestines, beef, tofu, and vegetables. While the portion size seemed reduced compared to previous visits, the broth was less oily and salty, which was a positive change. However, the hot pot arrived at our table not heated hot enough, affecting the cooking process. Overall, the ingredients provided a diverse range of flavors, but improvements in portion size and hot pot temperature would enhance the experience.
