Restaurant Hot King

We came here based on our Chinese friend's recommendation saying that this place has authentic flavors. And I agree!! It tastes different from the 'Kee Gang' around this restaurant. But the price is a bit higher, yet worth it for the portion.

Note: The portion of one steamed white rice is huge! So, one is enough for 2-3 people

I enjoyed authentic Szechuan food. The food tasted very good, service was excellent, and the portion sizes were very good. I don't know how someone could rate it less than 4 stars, probably those people have never tried authentic Chinese food. I will come back for more food 😎

Authentic Chinese restaurant, authentic plating and fancy presentations, highly recommended. The sichuan dishes are difficult in terms of balancing all the flavors (spicy, nummy, umami, and so on). They did really good. Indeed the dishes are not huge so four adults with 4 courses and rice on the side will do the job. In the end, it is not too expensive with the quality you get and in den haag center. Highly recommended!

Overall, I would give 3 stars ⭐️ to this restaurant.

It’s authentic Szechuan food. Definitely worth to have 1 star ⭐️

The second star ⭐️: The location is good, very easy to find via google map.

The last star ⭐️: The interior decoration looks good, suitable for dinner with friends.

The place is beautiful , but food is way too spicy. Even if you select the lowest hotness level it’s still too much. Price is high for the amount of meat they put in the dish. They forgot one dish - even everything was digitally ordered.

A pretty decent take on Sichuan cuisine. Food is fine and the atmosphere is great.
Price is a bit on the higher end, especially because dishes were made with very few meat / fish.
The service was quite bad this evening. We lacked plating and they forgot multiple dishes we ordered.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is really nice, very clean and very modern. Food is fine, a bit adjusted to the local flavor but would be an okay option for chinese people if they are missing the taste of home.

In total four dishes were ordered. Each has its own flaws. Some are big some are bearable.

Two cold dishes,
one is the 夫妻肺片,flavor is a bit on the sweater side but the cow intestines are well prepared and well flavored. The plating is very classy.

The other one is the five spice beef, well cooked and chilled, the sauce provided is a bit extra to my taste but in general I could just eat the meat without sauce and it's already satisfying.

Two warm dishes,
One is the steam pork, i think the meigan cai is not well prepared and you can taste the grassy flavor from it. The meat is well down but a bit ruined by the meigancai on meat pieces that are touching the dry veggie.

The other one is Oster sauce jielan, do not recommend. The vegetables are not with the best texture, which I think might due to the quality of the fresh veggies, which are not ideal. But the cutting of the vegetables are just making it even harder to consume. The sauce is way too overpowering, and it is way too salty on a dish which should taste fresh and umami. For 14 euros I'm expecting something eatable...

Overall, it's an okay restaurant, easy to fool the locals with the half way cooking but if you are chinese and wanted something reminded you of home. I would say good luck.

It was really delicious and the employees were really friendly.

I would recommend this place for everyone that likes spicy food. Even if you don't like spicy food, there is also a menu for that.

And if you think "aah goddamit I want to eat spicy but not too spicy" you can ask the employees to make it less spicy.

I got some spicy dishes, it was super delicious and really spicy.
