Truly Sichuan Bā Jiāo - Ridgewood

Food was really good. Service was good. But there is a mandatory 20% service charge for parties of 4 or more. This is not on the menu, but it appears on the bill. When asked, the server said it was the tip ....

Sorry to say when the former owner Rene left she took the flavor with her!! For the almost five years we've been going there, I have gotten the shredded pork in garlic sauce, it was the best. Anyone I brought there that tried it loved it. Have been there twice since Rene sold out and both times the dish I loved so much Truly disappointed. Very little flavor. We dined in and tried take out. Same disappointing results either way. Their chicken lo mein used to be awesome. That now has absolutely ZERO flavor. And their dishes aren't cheap either. Their soup dumplings are still good. But now it is just your run of the mill Chinese restaurant where every dish tastes the same. Goodbye Truly, thanks for the memories....

Food is good We got chicken, eggplant, soup and scallions pancakes. Eggplant with garlic sauce was very good. Friendly staff. Place needs to be renovated.

For those who gave good reviews obviously is only used to cheap Chinese takeout. This place is disgusting. Soup Dumpling has thick skin with cheap takeout filling, black vingar sauce is pink with weird taste and no sliced ginger. Its a fake wanna be dish. Main dishe is overseasoned with sugar which also taste like cheap takeout and even tap water smells like rotten wood. 1:20 PM Wed afternoon, we are the only customer and Girl who works at counter doesn't want to be bothered with her cellphone. We asked for simple things and she makes comments in Chinese with her co-worker. I wouldn't even give 1 star here.

An OK spot with very limited menu which honestly, wasn’t anything special. We were a part of a big party and order most of the items from the menu. Staff is very nice though. Dusty interior (mirrors and lamps) :
