Profile

This great Sichuan chainlet has blazed a chile-pepper trail from Chinatown, up Ninth Avenue to Chelsea and Hell's Kitchen, crosstown to Murray Hill and over to Second Avenue, and now to St. Marks Place, where the newest branch features all the old favorites, from the eminently fatty Red Cooking pork with chestnuts to the humble but delicious shredded potatoes with vinegar sauce.

I'm not sure what the previous reviewer was talking about. Grand Sichuan is one of our favorite Chinese restaurants in Manhattan. The branches at St. Mark's Place and near 53rd and 2nd are both great! The one near 34th and Lex isn't as good. We have gone to this restaurant multiple times, including my wife's birthday.

Spice is not the only thing in food at GS, but the service is super spicy also

Just being super spicy doesn't make the dish Hunanese. Spicy food do have taste, but none of the dishes I have tried have any taste at all besides overkill spicy. The hostess attitude is even more spicy than the food itself. She is probably the rudest chinese hostess in town, and I am Chinese myself. I wonder how the non-Chinese could take this kind of resturant service.
