Pacific Eatery Catering

Don’t come here for general tso and fried egg roll. Come here for northern Chinese food! The 4 dishes we had were very good, I didn’t come home thirsty! Kidney and bean sprout on hot rocks was interesting, the rock definitely kept the dish hot! The flavors are nice with a touch of Szechuan peppercorn and tender kidneys. Braised elbow is their signature dish, very nice marinate and soft elbows. Fried pork in sweet and sour sauce, highlight of the night! Perfectly crisped and the sauce was so good, so far the best in town! Fried eggplant in bean sauce, lightly fried and tossed in a black bean sauce.

This place is really authentic and I’d definitely come back again ordering everything from their menu. Di San Xian tastes just like how you’d taste it from the northern part of China. Grilled fish has none spicy options with few bones in the fish (that’s how you know they use good quality fish). The one-star reviews about how people missed the old restaurant’s General Tao’s Chicken and Beef Broccoli are unfair. You don’t come to this restaurant for American Chinese food when you can get it from Panda Express. Try something different! This is a modern authentic Chinese restaurant and I’m glad to find this gem in Columbus, Ohio.

Editing my review from 5 to 3. ownership changed, wasn't a great experience, got rid of my favorite dish, plus they gave me the wrong side. food not as good now.

The dishes are absolutely flavorful and tasty interesting choice of plates, reminiscent of the time 40 some years ago.

This one became an authentic Chinese restaurant, specializing in spicy and northeastern Chinese cuisine. Highly recommend their spicy liver slices. The liver tasted fresh and perfectly matched with spicy sauce and rice. Their spicy level is much higher than normal levels.
