Have to try the hot pot  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Rachel T. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 2,629

Whenever my family visits Chinatown, we always end up at Lao Sze Shuan. I planned a large hot pot party for some friends, and Tony really took care of us. Service can be slow, but the food is authentically spicy.

Tony's Chicken!  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Elizabeth R. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 507

I do love Tony's Chicken. It's pretty much the only reason to come here but it's a great reason! They also have some insanely spicy pork dish with tons of red pepper flakes that's pretty good, and the last time I went I got the smoked tea duck which was very interesting.

nice and hot  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

The atmosphere is nothing to speak of, but if you like spicy food you should definitely try it. We had, of course, the chili chicken as well as fish and beef dishes (sorry, can't remember which ones) but they were all very good.

The best Chili Chicken  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

By EMS S. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 4,224

The favorite in almost every table in this szechuan spelicialized restaurant is their chili chicken, although they have many other excellent foods from their menu like bean curd homestyle and shrimp with mayonaisse sauce.
They also have a hot pot menu with a generous portion of meat and or seafood which come with assortment of vegetable. With this, you boil and cook your own food, while they provide the sauce and soup for the pot.
