Xiāng Zhī Xiāng Wèi Hunan Bistro

Delicious food that comes highly recommended! This is one of our favorite spots in Chinatown. The dishes are bursting with flavor, perfect for those who enjoy bold tastes and spicy food! You can't miss the signature fish head dish! Other favorites of ours include the dry pots, cumin beef or lamb, sizzling tofu, and various vegetables. The staff is friendly, but keep in mind that the restaurant is small, so it’s a good idea to arrive a bit early to avoid peak dinner hours.

Authentic Hunan cuisine! I highly recommend the special grilled tilapia for anyone who enjoys spicy food. It's more like fried fish and comes loaded with plenty of vegetables and other ingredients alongside the fish. We ordered just one dish, and we still had leftovers to take home.

I ordered the orange chicken with fried rice, and I was very disappointed. It was the worst orange chicken I've ever had. It tasted like it had been leftover from the previous day, just smothered in orange chicken sauce. It was so tough that I almost hurt my teeth trying to chew it. I spoke to the manager about my experience, and he assured me he would discuss it with the chef to improve things for next time. Unfortunately for him, I won’t be returning. On a positive note, the service was decent.

I completely agree with most of the recent reviews: this place deserves a much higher rating than 3.9 stars. The food is genuinely authentic and has that signature Hunan-style spiciness. The service is quick, and the prices are reasonable.

This restaurant is outstanding for spicy Hunan cuisine. I've visited several times and highly recommend trying their signature grilled whole fish.
