The environment is ordinary, but the taste is impeccable. Yi Tong Tian Xia should be the signature dish. I see that every table has ordered it.
Overall it's not bad. If you are having a small gathering with a few friends, you can consider going there. After all, there are not many decent shops in the old city. It's just that 4-wheel parking is a bit troublesome. It is recommended to park the car near Hanlin Tianxia and then walk over, or park next to No. 2 Middle School.
For me who doesn't like spicy food, it's still pretty good and acceptable.
