" I’ve had better. Though the restaurant has great reviews, I found the duck to be greasy and disappointing in flavor. My noodles were good, but everything else fell flat. I didn't feel it was worth the trip considering how far I had to drive. The service was very friendly, but I wouldn't recommend this place to friends based on my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit and I was totally impressed! The ambiance was lovely—very traditional with beautiful lanterns. We went for the Peking Duck, and the way they presented it to us was fantastic. It tasted phenomenal. However, I found the chairs somewhat uncomfortable. Aside from that, the food was a knockout! Can’t wait to go back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ban Bu Xian's Peking Duck was worth all the hype! The presentation was impressive, served beautifully at our table. We also loved the ambiance which felt like stepping into a traditional Chinese restaurant. The only downside I saw was that the chairs were a bit uncomfortable for tall people. Overall, it's a great place for anyone craving authentic Chinese flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many Chinese restaurants but Ban Bu Xian stands out. The food was rich in flavors reminiscent of true Szechuan cuisine. The staff was friendly, though a bit slow at times. We had an array of dishes, including dumplings and spicy fish, which were incredibly satisfying. If you're looking for authenticity, this place delivers, but just be prepared for a wait during busy times! " (*Curated Review*)

" Another fantastic meal at Ban Bu Xian! We ordered the spicy fish, dumplings, and of course, the Peking Duck! The food is consistently delicious, and there are so many creative dishes. The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for family gatherings. The only area of improvement would be the wait time, but to me, it's worth it for the quality of food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my family and I had a less than ideal experience at Ban Bu Xian. While the ambiance was nice, the service was lacking. We waited an hour to receive our food, and when it arrived, it was lukewarm. The duck was not bad, but nothing special, and we left feeling dissatisfied. I doubt I would return. " (*Curated Review*)

" To say I was underwhelmed would be an understatement. The food was decent but certainly not as authentic as advertised. The Peking Duck was more fat than meat, and the dumplings lacked the flavor I expected. Service was friendly but slow, leaving us waiting longer than necessary. I won't be rushing back anytime soon, unfortunately. " (*Curated Review*)
