Spicy City - Capitol Hill

$18.99 gets you a handful of bony chicken wing pieces mixed with french fries (why? Dry pot chicken without all the red pepper is barely an appetizer size. Sichuan Hot Thin Sliced Pork Ear was overly salted, impossible to eat.Such a rip-off for bad food, never again.

Great customer service!Great food quality, great taste!They bring your food very very fast!I wish I can give them 10 stars!They are great!

To be honest I don't really see the appeal. People have talked up this place and I finally tried it to my disappointment. I love spicy food... maybe it was my order choice this time? I went with Chongqing Chili Chicken which I assumed was popular, Mongolian beef, and fried rice. It was spicy but didn't really feel any depth to the spice. Both dishes kind of tasted like whatever hot oil they use and chili pepper. I also tried a plum juice thinking it was just juice and either I just don't like plum juice, I got the wrong thing, or it was mixed with some tea. Idk maybe I'll try a different order down the road.

Delicious, authentic Sichuan food. Get the mapo tofu, popcorn chicken (boneless), and raindrop jelly for dessert.

Alright they are going for the authentic Chinese experience. That's cool, except for the excess of oil in the dishes, the distressed dining room. The portions are large, so best suited for a big party sharing dishes, otherwise you won't be able to order a diversity of dishes, or you will end up with food for a week. Music is very loud, as the waitress explained to us she doesn't want to hear the customers who talk all the time. Wow! Waitress was either overwhelmed or distracted. Offered us extra napkins they forgot to bring them. Very basic plastic drinking cups. Basic quality rice. This is the place for the authentic but not the refined Chinese cuisine. Definitely matches the everyday Chinese restaurant experience in the mainland.
