sichuan style 重庆味道

we decided to give this place a go given it had the highest rating out of all the restaurants in hamilton. at this point of our trip to nz, we have given up our expectations thatfoodwill be good here. every place we have eaten at has been very underwhelming and it makes us miss home. sichuan was no exception. the service was good and the dumplings were nice, but that was one dish out of four we ordered. the menu is quite extensive and it makes me wonder why put something on a menu if you cant cook it nice?

this is not the place if you are looking for excellent service. if you are looking for authentic sichuanfoodlook no further. bar none the best sichuanfoodin hamilton. there's over 200 dishes here and if you are adventurous get the staff to recommend you some dishes and you will have quite the dining experience. if you don't like spicyfoodthen this is not your place and don't bother ordering takeaway style dishes as this place is too good for that.

i really appreciated that there was afoodchoice with lots of yummy ingredients that didn't include onions. will definitely return.

my dad orders from here at least once a week, and after visiting here i can see why!

a huge menu with so many dishes on offer. thefoodwas tasty and filling, and great if you are a fan of spices. my favourite dish is something that resembles battered pork pieces (i can't recall the name). the meals are large and great for sharing. however, there are occasions where certain dishes are unavailable (much of this is to do with seasonal availability of meats or fish), but there's always something just as, if not more, yummy!

the actual restaurant can be very loud and busy (on any day of the week), but takeaways are just as good.
i very much recommend this restaurant if you are looking for great chinesefoodin hamilton.

nicefoodand good service, good location . this restaurant is always busy. i came here for lunch with friends and always feel full when we finished.

great little find in central hamilton. quick service, piping hotfoodand great prices. will be back here again no doubt to carry on trying different things on there menu

this has been one of my favorite spots for sichuan food! i have been going to this place for over 4 years. over the time these guys have put in a lot of effort to improve theirfoodand service. this has definitely payed off,foodis flavorful and they dont hesitate to make alterations if you prefer your dish a certain way. friendly staff who happily serves customers. sometimes they have mixed up or forgotten the order and a little reminder has fixed it up. these guys are hardworking and always looking out for customers to have the best experience even if you are just dropping in for a take away.

thefoodhere is amazing - just rich enough and large portions for a cheap price. thefoodcame out within 5 minutes and the staff were super friendly and approachable.

i'd recommend this place for sharing meals.

the photo i have attached is the sichuan style dumplings and sweet and sour pork with dark sauce.

average chinese restaurant in hamilton

this restaurant is more sichuan vs other chinese restaurant, in detail more of chongqing style which are oily heavy and spicy. many would have heard about the famous “dan dan noodle” and this noodle is originated from this area.
4.4 rating on zomato for a chinese restaurant is pretty damn good so i had to see what the hype is about.

small but clean and spacious(not too crowded, even had a waiting room). menus in chinese and english, had their own website with pictures of every single menu which was very surprising for an asian restaurant. youtube videos of how theirfoodis made and where they are originated.

alright this place aint no 5 star top quality fine dining restaurant but you can see they took time preparing everything. i was very very excited to try theirfoodand this is how it all went downhill.

service was fast, took them less than 10min to bring out the food.foodwas average. it’s probablt one of best restaurants in hamilton but my expectations were way too high. one of the meal was not even hot, it was just slightly warm and there was way too much oil it was dripping down the side of the plate. their steamed bun was pretty impressive tho, it was bigger than my fist.

overall came to $60+ bill with 2 menu and 1 steamed bun. maybe i should stick with the noodle soups next time.

very average compared to other sichuanfoodin new zealand. i ordered the vegan dandan noodles off the menu, which came with pork mince. i also ordered plain rice, which never came, and when i followed it up with the server it still never arrived. my partner ordered pork dandan and sichuan dumplings, and said both were very bland ("worst dandan i've ever had"). while the venue was clean and tidy, i would not recommend these items or a visit to this restaurant.

visit it nearly twice a week. a wide range of spicyfoodoffered there. highly recommend any dishes of fish, taste quite well. the dining environment is however not quite good as less space left when every desk is close to each other

we dined last night for the first time and i called in tonight for take out!

i appreciated how patient the staff were, they discerned that some of us needed help to order and so brought over an ipad with photos of each dish.

i am not particularly adventurous withfood so stayed with what i recognised. i highly recommend the sichuan style dumplings (menu number k26) which are amazing! i also enjoyed the green beans with pork mince (g7), and the eggplant with pork mince (b21). the giant steamed buns are a must to accompany any meal.

don't bother ordering the stuff you'd find at your local, like fried rice or sweet n sour chicken because compared to the many options available, these are pricier and inferior in flavour, taste and presentation.

our group of 10 loved the shared dining style and found the atmosphere busy but not intrusive.

i will confidently say that the staff are helpful, the cost is reasonable and thefoodis excellent.

my friends and family could not stop raving about this place, that i decided it was finally time that i try it for myself!

service was very efficient, and the lady serving us was very friendly.

while the menu was long and endless, there are actually very few vegetarian options :( fortunately they are very willing to customise the dishes for me :) my spicy fried flat rice noodles with mixed vegetables was rich and flavourful. while husband normally prefers xiao-long-bao/soup buns, he really enjoyed their pork buns. he said the buns are particularly well made, very soft and pillowy in texture, with a subtle sweetness.

we also ordered a plate of taro rolls to share. we were not entirely certain what to expect, but we were definitely very happy with what we were served! the outside texture was like a deep fried bread, slightly savoury in flavour. the filling was taro with natural sweetness. it pushes the edge of both savoury and sweet, which went surprisingly well together. it was almost addictive!

there were so muchfoodthat we had to ask for a take away box :p all in all, very decent, authentic sichuan food, with good value for money. i would be more than happy to visit again if i were in the hamilton area.
