My father used to tell me that if a restaurant was packed, it meant the food was good and the place worth visiting. Not Grand Sichuan International. The wait for final call was much too long, and the food hardly above the quality of your typical, street-corner Wong Delight. Maybe I didn't know what to order, but a look around at other tables revealed just a lot of dishes with a lot of average looking food heaped onto them. Service, as other reviewers have indicated, was rude. The servers don't speak English and are extremely impatient. But bad service bothers me a lot less than bad food. The atmosphere was lively. A packed restaurant is always fun. Too bad you can't eat ambience for dinner.

Super food. The crab/pork or just the pork soup dumplings are to die for. The cold asparagus with scallion sauce is likey to give you a new affinity for the pointy green. Kimberly is a sweetheart--though her colleagues could use some of her nice-ness.
