" I had lunch at Hot Peppercorn and ended up ordering a ton of food because I couldn't decide! The crispy eggplant and the hot pot seafood were standout dishes—each bite was packed with flavor. The restaurant is clean, and the staff seemed genuinely happy to be there, which made the environment feel even more welcoming. However, the place was quite busy, so we waited about 10 minutes for our tables, but once seated, the service improved significantly. Would highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Chinese cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although Hot Peppercorn was crowded, it had a delightful energy! My friends and I were there during the dinner rush, but we were seated quickly, and the service was decent. We indulged in the spicy wontons, which were a personal favorite. The ambiance was nice, providing a warm and inviting dining experience. The only hiccup was the pacing of the food, which took a bit longer than expected. Nevertheless, I can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hot Peppercorn exceeded my expectations! I’m a huge fan of spicy food, and their Szechuan dishes hit the spot. The wait for our food was a bit lengthy, but the servers were constantly checking in on us, which was nice. I really enjoyed their chili oil noodles and spicy pickled vegetables. It was a lively weekend night, and the atmosphere made it even better—a perfect place to celebrate with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The moment you step into Hot Peppercorn, you are met with a cozy and inviting feel. The warm decor makes a great first impression. The highlight for me was definitely the dry pot. I love the concept of sharing and customizing your own dish to suit your tastes. Only downside was that it took longer than expected for our food to arrive, but when it did, I was impressed! The flavor was incredible, and the wait staff was accommodating. A must-try restaurant for any diner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been on a quest for authentic Cantonese food, and Hot Peppercorn did not disappoint! The restaurant has a great vibe, perfect for a casual night out. I tried their signature Szechuan dishes and the dim sum, which was, if I may say, out of this world! The dumplings were freshly made, and the dipping sauces complemented them nicely. One downside was that the service was a bit slower than I expected, especially when we needed refills on our drinks, but it won't stop me from returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" It’s always a joy to be at Hot Peppercorn. Their food reminds me of the authentic Chinese restaurants I visited when I lived in Beijing. The spicy chicken is fantastic, just the right amount of kick! The service is friendly, but it can be a bit chaotic during peak hours. Nevertheless, it’s great food that keeps bringing me back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Hot Peppercorn has great staff! They are super friendly and attentive! The food comes out hot and flavorful, and I must say, the spicy wontons are absolutely the best. I can't stress enough about how fresh their ingredients are! I wish they had a bigger location since it gets packed fast. However, each time I visit, I'm always left feeling satisfied and happy. I highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)
