Stinky tofu is a Shanghai specialty dimsum. But here the stinky tofu is not stinky. It's just ordinary firm tofu. it cost $10. Very disappointed.
One of the best hidden spots to eat, flavor is off the hook. The two ladies that I ordered from are the nicest people. I would recommend this place to everyone who loves Chinese food!!
Delicious noodles, beef & broccoli, rice. VERY nice staff. The hot n sour soup was pretty basic, same one you find at most Chinese restaurants. Not bad, just nothing special. Would (WILL) happily return!
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.
Great food. Terrible location. Right next to a liquor store. Approach from the east if you don't want to walk through the group hanging out out front.
I've been going to Spices 3 and the whole Spices empire (there are 4 locations, two in Oakland, two in San Francisco). They have a variety of spicy and non-spicy szechuan food. I've gone there for family dinners and we've always enjoyed items like their hot & sour soup, spicy cucumbers, shanghai noodles with pork, or shanghai rice cakes. They're cash only, however they're now part of Doordash and other delivery services, so you could still place a pickup order.
