The restaurant is probably one of the crappiest looking restaurants I've ever seen. It sits at the edge of a commuter rail line, near the parking lot of a dilapidated Star Market. Hours are till 10pm nightly, I think.
That being said, the food is quite amazing, with some caveats. I tried eating lunch here a few times, but most of the lunch dishes are kind of simplistic and reminiscent of cheap chinese food trucks that sit outside MIT. The real dishes are listed further into the menu, under the North/South style cooking and also in the Sichuan style cooking. Food is liberally spicy. I recommend the Sichuan whole fish, pork shoulder, lamb with cumin (delightful), and the Ma Po tofu (wow.) Everything is usually delicious. This is the kind of stuff I can't imagine myself making.
Restaurant is a bit small. Probably around six tables total.
Pros: Inexpensive, Parking easy, Delivery
Cons: Crappy location, zodiac paper food mat
