" Little Chengdu is a small yet vibrant eatery that packs a punch with their flavors. Although it did take some time to get our orders, once the food arrived, we were thrilled with the taste. Their monster duck dish was incredibly flavorful and arguably my favorite dish. The ambiance could get a bit noisy when crowded, but the staff worked hard to keep things running. Overall, it’s a solid option if you’re craving authentic Sichuan food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Little Chengdu has become my go-to spot for Sichuan food. What sets it apart is not just the spice but the authenticity—it meets my high expectations being from a family with Sichuan roots. The dishes here feel like a warm embrace from home. However, from experience, I advise potential visitors to make reservations; it can get quite packed. On one occasion, I did face delivery issues with their online service which was frustrating, but the food is worth waiting for. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a truly authentic Sichuan experience, look no further. Little Chengdu has it all—great flavors, perfect spice levels, and a range of choices that makes eating here a pleasure. The environment is inviting, albeit a tad busy at dinner time. I enjoyed the service, though they were a bit overwhelmed when the place got full. Still, the staff was friendly. I suggest trying the crispy frog legs—they were a unique find! Don’t skip this place, especially if you love authentic cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at Little Chengdu are extraordinary! The cold noodles and sizzling frog were standout dishes, with an authentic feel that truly transports you to Sichuan. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, making it perfect for a casual night out. However, I experienced a bit of a hiccup with getting my order in timely—a little more organization would go a long way. Nevertheless, overall it was a delightful meal that left me wanting more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Little Chengdu was one of the best decisions of my week! Each bite was an explosion of flavor, especially in their spicy boiled fish dish. It is definitely not for the faint-hearted, but the balance of spice and taste is executed beautifully. I appreciated the cozy ambiance, which made the meal even more enjoyable. My only issue was with the wait time, but to be honest, the food delivered made every second worth it. I'm already planning my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a wonderful dinner experience at Little Chengdu. Their spicy grilled fish was not only very authentic but their flavors were simply out of this world. The atmosphere felt friendly, and the staff were accommodating and attentive. Slight wait times are expected but well worth it once you take the first bite. Highly recommend for spice enthusiasts looking for authentic Sichuan experiences. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Little Chengdu is phenomenal! Authentic flavors and just the right level of spice. I had the spicy fish dish, and it was just what I was craving. The atmosphere is cozy; I could definitely see myself making this a regular spot. However, the service left something to be desired—it was disorganized and slow. If they can improve on that, this place could be unbeatable! " (*Curated Review*)
