What an amazing find! I’m so glad we finally tried the Chinese Sauerkraut Fish! I’ll highly recommend their classic soup for 2 with appetizers as cucumber or fungus and the wild starch noodles for sure - I loved the sauce they used. The chilli oil was phenomenal, I tasted either sesame oil or peanut oil and couldn’t get enough of it. I’ll recommend all fish with the add ons like bean curd, enoki mushrooms and lotus root. The soup was so flavorful, the picked cabbage was a mouthful of flavor paired with the sour and spicy taste, can’t wait to go back. Also the dessert - bingfen was so incredibly good - don’t skip it. They have so many more things to try. The interior was well kept and looked pretty upscale. The host was super nice and generous and the service was good and fast. The place is a little small and sign up for their 5% cash back through chownow. Can’t recommend it enough.

UPDATE: 12/31/2023: We still come here about once or twice a month. The fish soup is still very good and tasty. However, they reduced their menu. My favorite pickled mustard greens and green beans appetizer are gone. Really wish for them to bring it back. If you want more numbness, ask for extra peppercorn and spicy. They will try to accommodate you. I still recommend this place and planning to return next week. This restaurant is still a 5 star. ——————— Okay. We discovered this new restaurant for a few months now and we were just waiting for it to be opened. It’s called Chinese sauerkraut Fish. I didn’t understand the name but my curiosity got me excited. So today, we decided to dine here. The place get pretty crowded really quickly. We got really lucky and was able to grab a table. We ordered their special soup and got the vine numb flavor with tilapia for 2 small bowl. When they brought out the soup, OMG! It was in a HUGE fancy white bowl. It was so pretty and the presentation was outstanding. I was in awe the second they put the soup bowl on the table. I can see so many interesting ingredients with all sorts of fresh spices such as fresh Sichuan peppers, dried chili peppers, tofu, etc. The flavor was outstanding and burn my tongue at the same time because I couldn’t stop drinking the broth! It was that good! We also ordered chao quay which is fried Chinese bread. Let me tell you, by far one of the best chao quay I ever had. I honestly love this place and can’t wait to bring my family here. The only complaint I have is they serve us with tiny plastic spoon. I wish they use the regular Chinese soup soon instead. Next time I may have to bring my own soup spoon. Also, they serve everything paper plates and plastic cups. I hope they use regular dishes in the future to help the environment.

We are regulars here. The food is always on fireee. Service is at best. Fish soup on a rainy day 😋

I was introduced to this place and have never even knew about this dish or its existence. We instantly fell in love. We got the combo which comes with 2 appetizers. I def recommend the donut with condensed milk and chicken with chili! We’ve been twice so far and have recommended it to our friends.

My favorite place for fish 🐟 😍 Love the classic style and always order combo which is good value, really yummy 😋 recommend adding celtuce to the soup, it’s the best side veggie!!

No. 1 fish restaurant in Dallas. Fish is very fresh. Youtiao in the soup is super delicious!! Very suitable for gathering!

Amazing dining experience at the water-boiled fish restaurant! The ambiance was delightful, with cozy decor and attentive staff. The star of the show was the water-boiled fish, bursting with flavors and perfectly spiced. The extensive menu offered a great variety of dishes, ensuring everyone's taste buds were satisfied. Don't miss their Sichuan specialties – a true delight for spice lovers! Highly recommended for an authentic and memorable culinary journey.
