The Sichuan province of China is known for its world renown spicy cuisine. Xin's Chinese Cuisine has a good selection of Sichuan inspired dishes among other traditional and Americanized Chinese dishes.

When you first arrive at the place. There's not much you can tell from the outside. It's very average looking, you can easily overlook it if you were unitary passing by. Don't let the exterior foil you though. Inside you'll find very traditional Chinese décor, reminiscent of a tea house. The restaurant isn't the biggest but it does make to have enough space for a decent crowd.

The food here ranges from traditional to Americanized. Check out the menu for more details. The most popular dish is definitely the spicy pot, which is a mix of different vegetables and chili peppers all centered around either meat or fish. Depending you preference, you have a few options there. I strongly recommend getting the spicy fish pot. Portion wise this place does not hold back. You'll be able to share with a group of people easily. Another cool fact is that they make their own homemade yogurt drink which pairs well with all spicy food. Good way to cool down.

Do I recommend this place? Yes.

Is it worth the price? Yep.

Should you go there? Sure, why not.

Not everyone will like it, but I do. Go ahead and find out for yourself. Let me know...

Xin's Chinese Cuisine is incredible! Having traveled the world and enjoyed traditional Chinese food in many places, this has to be one of my absolute favorite restaurants. The hot and sour soup is rich, spicy, tangy, and delicious. The crispy fried chicken (small pieces of skin-on, bone-in, fried chicken) might seem a little unusual at first, as you are dealing with small bones and have to gnaw to enjoy the meat, but it is spicy, perfectly cooked, and will leave you wanting more. The Mongolian Beef is better than any other I have tried in the states. The Kung Pao chicken is spectacular. The atmosphere is great. The staff is friendly and quick to serve your needs. I cannot wait to return and enjoy this dining establishment's amazing offerings.

I only heard of this place because a Chinese immigrant who works at a restaurant closer to my home recommended it. I am so grateful she did.
