" I came here with high hopes but left a bit disappointed. The food was average and didn't stand out compared to my other experiences in Chinatown. I appreciate the authenticity, but I expected bolder flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had mixed experiences here. The food was good but the service was slow during our visit. We waited over 30 minutes for our order to be taken. When it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavors. Good spicy food but the wait time needs improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Spicy King did not meet my expectations this time around. While the food was good, I felt the prices were higher for the portion sizes received. I might check in again in the future when craving Sichuan. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, great atmosphere and the staff were top notch! Food was generally solid, but some dishes felt slightly less authentic than I’d hoped. Great for friends or family dinners. " (*Curated Review*)
