Master Critic Review
Szechuan Mountain House (East Village)
8.3
A high-energy Sichuan spot built around bold mala flavors, smoky woks, and big-format share plates. Expect a lively, slightly chaotic St. Marks scene paired with reliably punchy spice and plenty of textural contrast.

Sliced pork belly with chili garlic sauce, Sichuan cabbage & fish (sour pickle fish stew), Double cooked pork
